  7. 'Artrageous' fashion and street food fun

    Macy's Passport presents Glamorama took flight &quot;Like a G6" with performances by Far East Movement and Grammy Award-winner Cee Lo Green at the Chicago Theatre. The sold-out event lived up to its reputation with guests viewing fall fashion by Jean Paul Gaultier, Marc Jacobs, Sonia Rykiel, Papi, Tracy Reese, Armani Jeans and Bar III. The event raised more than $350,000 for Ronald McDonald House Charities of Chicagoland and Northwest Indiana in their efforts building the world's largest Ronald McDonald House. I was proud to be the honorary chairwoman for this event.

  8. Review: "Brothers Emanuel" by Ezekiel J. Emanuel

    Three brothers &mdash; Ezekiel, Rahm and Ari Emanuel &mdash; each went on to great career accomplishment: Zeke as a bioethicist; Ari as a powerful Hollywood talent agent; and Rahm, of course, as White House chief of staff for President Obama before being elected mayor of Chicago. &quot;What did their mom put in the cereal?" That is the question Ezekiel, or "Zeke," asks in his new book, "Brothers Emanuel: A Memoir of an American Family."

  10. Little Italy: The little neighborhood that could

    Chicago developer Bob Angevin combined retail with rental property when he took over The Landmark building in Andersonville. He did the same at The Abbey condominiums in Hyde Park. So he was ready to venture into the Near West Side when the opportunity arose at 1401 W. Taylor St. Like the two other neighborhoods, he says Little Italy has a vibrancy about it.
