  1. Barbara Brotman: She started as a barista, left as a friend

    Over at the coffee bar, the goodbyes were flowing as freely as the hot drinks.
    Over at the coffee bar, the goodbyes were flowing as freely as the hot drinks. Good luck! We'll miss you. Take care. The morning rush at my regular Starbucks was bittersweet, no matter how much sugar you added to your latte. We regulars were...

  2. Eboo Patel explores religious pluralism

    Eboo Patel is an idealist. A hopeless romantic. A dreamer. The Chicago-based founder of the Interfaith Youth Core and one of President Barack Obama's faith advisers doesn't believe people of different faiths should just all get along. They should work together. But there's another attribute that has grounded Patel's optimism and led him to develop one of the nation's leading non-profits devoted to interfaith cooperation. Eboo Patel is a patriot. If pairing a so-called “foreign” name with the concept of American loyalty makes some bigots cringe, Patel's latest book will make them cringe cover to cover. In “Sacred Ground: Pluralism, Prejudice and the Promise of America,” Patel confronts the challenges of living up to America's high ideals, takes on the bigots and explains how he briefly lost hope for his cause, only to find it once again.

  4. Join us to talk about faith and friction

    Violence, illiteracy, poverty and hunger. With so many tragedies in this world &mdash; or just this city &mdash; why do we haggle about religious differences? It's a thread I often explore as the Tribune's religion reporter. Eboo Patel, founder of the Interfaith Youth Core and White House faith adviser, thinks about this all the time.

  5. Words with negative power

    In its never-ending effort to avoid misleading language in news coverage, The Associated Press Stylebook has decided to declare Islamophobia, homophobia and presumably other non-clinical uses of the word &quot;phobia" to be a new taboo.

  6. Goodbye, Love-Hate. Hello, "Ask Trib Nation."

    Long after it debuted in the Chicago Tribune's former At Play section, and more than a year after moving to Page 2 of the Tribune in our 2011 redesign, we've decided to end the Love-Hate feature in favor of something newer: Answering reader questions.

  7. Detective has been good to his creator

    It's been two decades since the maverick Los Angeles homicide detective Hieronymus &quot;Harry" Bosch made his debut in Michael Connelly's first novel, "The Black Echo." In 18 novels over that span, the hard-charging, short-tempered, fiercely independent Bosch &mdash; named, appropriately, for the 15th-century Dutch painter known for hellish scenes of physical and spiritual violence &mdash; has hunted down and confronted a series of murderers, several of them serial killers; repeatedly clashed with his co-workers and bosses at the Los Angeles Police Department; and engaged in a series of personal and family relationships, all of them difficult, most of them short-term.

  9. Facebook for grandparents

    My mother recently announced a desire to join Facebook. While at first the thought of my 65-year-old mom "poking" people or "liking" things scared me, I soon realized this could be a good thing. And according to a Pew Internet Project Tracking Survey...

  10. Scaling the heights

    Can a four-star meal begin with fried smelts and end with a Butterfinger bar? My last dinner at Sixteen says yes.
    Can a four-star meal begin with fried smelts and end with a Butterfinger bar? My last dinner at Sixteen says yes. These are uncertain times for four-star dining in Chicago. Since last September, four previous top-rated restaurants have closed up shop...

  11. Chicago is mostly banished at Obama party

    &quot;Hello, Chicago," said the city's newly elected hometown president, speaking to ecstatic Grant Park celebrants four years ago this week amid a backdrop of iconic Midwestern skyscrapers, shimmering in red, white and blue. After Barack Obama's victory rally in 2008, huge crowds of jubilant Chicagoans streamed up Michigan Avenue on an impossibly balmy night. For those of us watching their progression from the sidewalk outside Tribune Tower, the tug of history being made was acute. It felt like something had shifted in the very foundation of Chicago, which suddenly seemed like the center of the new political world. Already there had been speculation as to how a city would have to make some serious adjustments.

  12. Finding the trail

    Memoir, it is said, is the art of subjective truth. Books like Tobias Wolff&rsquo;s &ldquo;This Boy&rsquo;s Life&rdquo; and Mary Karr&rsquo;s &ldquo;The Liar&rsquo;s Club&rdquo; set the bar high, and sadly the memoir explosion that followed those titles was marked by pale imitations: survivor tales of dysfunctional families, abusive relationships and powerful addictions.
