Chicago is cleaning up after big waves slammed the shoreline. How can the city prepare for more supercharged storms?
FRIDAY, JAN 17

Lake Michigan's shoreline is vulnerable, with climate change-fueled storms and near record water levels eroding the coast.

This past weekend was a good example, with waves battering Lake Shore Drive, shutting down bike and vehicle traffic lanes and clogging social media with images of water covered beaches and sidewalks.

The problem is likely to get worse, and solutions to protect Chicago endangered shore are expensive, bureaucratic and ultimately uncertain.

5 customers shot, including 3 juveniles, while getting hair cut at barbershop on Chicago's West Side
FRIDAY, JAN 17

Two gunmen opened fire outside a West Side barbershop, hitting three boys and two men who were inside getting their hair trimmed Thursday evening.
Chicago police Deputy Chief of Patrol Ernest Cato said two gunmen walked in, kind of looked around, then walked right back out. Moments later, both shot from the street through the front window, hitting the customers. It was too soon to determine a motive, but the victims — ages 11, 12, 16, 30 and 40 — were expected to survive.
"We have to do something about this violence,'' Cato said. "And this is going to be a cooperation with the community and organizations. This will not be tolerated anymore."

    Someone observed that you can tell the difference between a black shooting and a white one because blacks do such a sloppy job that more are wounded than killed. In this barbershop shooting no one died, but it was a close shave.

    No scissors needed in the hood,to get a haircut...lol.A couple drive-by bullets will slice off a lot of hair and some cranial bone.
    Rules for getting a haircut in Rollo's B-Shop.
    1)Pay in advance
    2)Rollo is allowed to duck behind the customer during any gunplay.
    3)Rollo sees nuthin'--sez nuthin'.
