coldest day in chicago history: Journal IV Mircea Eliade, 2018-12-14 Journal IV is the first publication, in a translation from the Romanian manuscript, of the journal that Mircea Eliade kept during the last seven years of his life. In this period, Eliade is ensconced as a famous scholar—his works are being translated into many languages and books about him arrive regularly in the mail. His encounters with scholars of like repute are recorded in the journal; after a party in Paris, Eliade shares a taxi with Claude Lévi-Strauss and inadvertently makes off with his raincoat. Running like a fault line through the peak of his success, however, is Eliade's painful awareness of his physical decline—failing vision, arthritic hands, and continual fatigue. Again and again he repeats how little time he has to finish the projects he is working on—his autobiography, the third and fourth volumes of his History of Religious Ideas, and the duties associated with his editorship of the Encyclopedia of Religion. He poignantly recounts the sharpest blow: the disorganization and eventual destruction by fire of his personal library. Within the scope of Journal IV Eliade and his world go to ruin. What does not decline is the vivid and persistent voice of Eliade the writer, an unbreaking voice that—with death only months away—plans a reply to critics, plots out an article, and ruminates on characters to people another novella. |
coldest day in chicago history: Chicago: Its History and its Builders, Volume 1 Josiah Seymour Currey, 2017-04-27 Maybe there has never been a more comprehensive work on the history of Chicago than the five volumes written by Josiah S. Currey - and possibly there will never be. Without making this work a catalogue or a mere list of dates or distracting the reader and losing his attention, he builds a bridge for every historically interested reader. The history of Windy City is not only particularly interesting to her citizens, but also important for the understanding of the history of the West. This volume is number one out of five and covers the time from the period of discovery to the slavery issues of the town in the 19th century. |

coldest day in chicago history: The Angel of Death J. C. Jones, 2017-03-27 A kind and gentle man living in Chicago on his way home from work on a late Friday night subway train gets robbed and killed. He wakes up from death to find himself in heaven where he meets Michael the Archangel of War. Michael asked him to go back to earth as an angel in his army of angels sent around the world to wage a war on crime. Manメs dirty warメs that bring human indignity, human injustices and death around the world. John Griswall is his name and this is his story is true to fact as I know it. John becomes an angel of death in Michaelメs army. He wants to do his part in saving the world and his beloved family he left behind from Godメs wrath of Armageddon if the angels fail to make a difference. John goes back to Chicago and fights crime and the injustices of humans and by on other humans. He goes around the city of Chicago killing sinful criminals, sending their souls to hell. The police think there is a vigilante killer lose in the city. He does not discriminate in picking his criminal victims, picking from a range of petty thieves, murders, rapists, mob bosses, politicians and dirty cops. The manhunt is on for a serial killer. Wherever he goes and whoever he kills he leaves his calling card. A death card found on the body only he can leave, sending out the word it was him and only him bringing death to all criminals who cross his path. Detective Sargent Christy Evans who leads her team of homicide detectives are hot on his trail. They continue mopping up the carnage of dead bodies after each of the murders hoping to get one step closer to him and stopping this vigilante killer. After some very intense investigations and a dozen murders later, Detective Evans and some cops think this is a real angel thatメs come to earth and is doing all the killing. No human has the super human strength to do what this angel does in his methods of killing. Detective Evans is willing to follow him into the pits of hell if thatメs what it takes to catch him and ask him why? モWhy now and who is next, is the most important questions Christy is willing to risk her own life to find out the answers. Detective Evans faces opposition and conflict from those who do not believe in angels and demons or heaven and hell. Some people believe in such things and some do not, which causes her great turmoil in her own ranks and with her peers she has to answer to. Some people have to be convinced the hard way by this one sole detective, this is a real angel and heaven does exist as they find out he is here to stay and not to mess with him or else. Others refuse to believe until itメs too late for them to repent and the only option is death. What do you do with a real angel from heaven killing criminals and finding bodyメs by the dozens? He doesnメt fall under manメs written laws? God has invoked a set of new laws for man to follow and John only answers to God and heaven. For hundreds of thousands of years this world was Satanメs or Luciferメs playground of pleasure, sin and despair. The war of good and evil is on and heメs not going to give up this planet without a fight. He sends his own angels and demons around the world to fight heavenメs angels for all the souls of humanity. The stakes have never been higher in the history of mankind for the grand prize of human souls and earth. Humans around the world not even aware of this war taking place fall easy prey to the pleasures of Satan. People soon find out around the world as well, angels are very real. With an army of Michaelメs angels around the world, humans see the subtle changes for the good of mankind taking place and realize they are here and humans need to change or die. Happening before their very eyes, they see wars end. Dictators die and people are freed from bondage and slavery to live their new lives and make their own choices in life. The events they see take place make believers out of people all over the world while others reject their message to carry on with their evil ways fighting the changes of humanity. Lucifer sends his angels and demons to Chicago to stop this one lone angel from victory. As John does his duty and the body count starts climbing, humans are forced to face the hard truths about themselves and this one lone vigilante angel loose in the city. They are forced to praise him or hate him. Learn to live with him or face whatメs coming if he fails. Join him or die, your given a choice to repent or burn in the fiery pits of hell condemning your soul forever. Criminals have had a foothold in Chicago since Chicago was born and not willing to give up their city without a fight. They are willing to gamble for the city or die by his hands. Even Chicagoメs finest, the protectors of the people, as in the politicians, state and federal both, with the Chicago police departments are forced to change their way of doing business or face Johnメs wrath. These humans learning what the outcome is and their fate if they donメt change, all will all be judged the same in the end. The choice has finally come for humanity to face. What will it be, change the world as they know it or face the damnation of Armageddon? The choice is yours as I tell Johnメs story about the day an Angel came to Chicago. |
coldest day in chicago history: Chicago’s Modern Mayors Dick Simpson, Betty O'Shaughnessy, 2024-01-23 Political profiles of five mayors and their lasting impact on the city Chicago’s transformation into a global city began at City Hall. Dick Simpson and Betty O’Shaughnessy edit in-depth analyses of the five mayors that guided the city through this transition beginning with Harold Washington’s 1983 election: Washington, Eugene Sawyer, Richard M. Daley, Rahm Emmanuel, and Lori Lightfoot. Though the respected political science, sociologist, and journalist contributors approach their subjects from distinct perspectives, each essay addresses three essential issues: how and why each mayor won the office; whether the City Council of their time acted as a rubber stamp or independent body; and the ways the unique qualities of each mayor’s administration and accomplishments influenced their legacy. Filled with expert analysis and valuable insights, Chicago’s Modern Mayors illuminates a time of transition and change and considers the politicians who--for better and worse--shaped the Chicago of today. |

coldest day in chicago history: Chicago Latina Trailblazers Rita D. Hernández, Leticia Villarreal Sosa, Elena R. Gutiérrez, 2024-09-10 Mexican American and Puerto Rican women have long taken up the challenge to improve the lives of Chicagoans in the city’s Latino/a/x communities. Rita D. Hernández, Leticia Villarreal Sosa, and Elena R. Gutiérrez present testimonies by Latina leaders who blazed new trails and shaped Latina Chicago history from the 1960s through today. Taking a do-it-all attitude, these women advanced agendas, built institutions, forged alliances, and created essential resources that Latino/a/x communities lacked. Time and again, they found themselves the first Latina to hold their post or part of the first Latino/a/x institution of its kind. Just as often, early grassroots efforts to address issues affecting themselves, their families, and their neighborhoods grew into larger endeavors. Their experiences ranged from public schools to healthcare to politics to broadcast media, and each woman’s story shows how her work changed countless lives and still reverberates across the entire city. An eyewitness view of an unknown history, Chicago Latina Trailblazers reveals the vision and passion that fueled a group of women in the vanguard of reform. Contributors: Ana Castillo, Maria B. Cerda, Carmen Chico, Aracelis Flecha Figueroa, Aida Luz Maisonet Giachello, Mary Gonzales, Ada Nivia López, Emma Lozano, Virginia Martinez, Carmen Mendoza, Elena Mulcahy, Guadalupe Reyes, Luz Maria B.

These catastrophes elicited vastly different responses, and thus raise a number of important questions. How, for example did African Americans, feminists, and labor activists respond to the Titanic disaster? Why did the El train crash take on such symbolic meaning for the citizens of Chicago? In what ways did the San Francisco earthquake reaffirm rather than challenge a predominant faith in progress? |

coldest day in chicago history: An Unconventional Chicago Devon Rhodes, Jambrea Jones, T.A. Chase, Stephani Hecht, Amber Kell, 2014-08-08 ‘No Bravery’ by T.A. Chase A man looking for revenge discovers a man who wants to save a city. Farris O’Laughlin has been back in Chicago for five years. He’d spent thirteen years before his return in a mental asylum after his brother had him committed for ‘insanity’. Farris plots revenge in the way he knows will hurt his brother the most—bringing down the family business. Darien Shaunessy is Farris’ new driver and guard. He’s around to keep Farris in line...or so Farris’ brother thinks. Darien has his own reasons for working for the O’Laughlins, but Farris wasn’t part of his plan. When two men from different parts of the city come together, powerful men could lose their wealth and control. And the lovers could find bravery they never thought they possessed. ‘Love Don’t Die’ by Jambrea Jo Jones They might die, but their love never will... Moran Schultz was tasked with getting information from one ward to another. He was all for helping his brother make Chicago a better place. What he wasn’t expecting was his lover to show up after a month of no contact. Dutch Luciano isn’t going to let Moran go without a fight. They love each other and the gangs in charge of Chicago aren’t going to keep them apart. Can Moran let Dutch back in or is it too dangerous? More than Chicago is on the line. Will love be strong enough to survive? ‘Passion Under Fire’ by Stephani Hecht Can their love overcome the danger coming their way, or are they doomed to die? Georgio is the third son in a powerful mob family, but he has never agreed with their violent or illegal ways, so he joins the resistance in an attempt to right the wrongs that his family has done. But, by doing so, he puts himself at great risk of getting caught. And if he is, his older brothers would have no problem ordering him executed, their sibling or not. Tito is a runner for the family. While he hates the gang, he has a sick brother at home to take care of, so he has to take the job because it pays so well. The last thing Tito expects is to form an attachment to Georgio. While Georgio tries to deny his feelings for Tito, he finds himself drawn to him as well. But, if they were to be caught together, they could be killed on the spot. Will their love be able to survive so many obstacles? Or can they find a way to happiness? ‘Ganging Up on Love’ by Amber Kell New love can bring new dangers. When Dirk volunteered to take the information to the resistance, he didn’t know he’d find his perfect match in their leader. Determined to find a place among them, he offers to help wherever he can. Leon has always been alone, afraid of trusting anyone with his affection. When the visitor from Ward Three comes in with important information to bring down the mob bosses, he doesn’t know how to handle their instant attraction. When outside dangers threaten to tear them apart, will their new love be enough to keep them together? ‘Bonfire Heart’ by Devon Rhodes Sometimes fires burn and destroy, but from the ashes, new growth can heal and cleanse. Thierry Alexander is the deputy mayor of Chicago, a city he loves but can’t save on his own from the corrupt political system. His assistant and lover, Eduardo, is also known as Cesar, the head of the underground resistance movement. He has been working behind the scenes for years and finally gets what he needs—enough information to get the US government involved and take down the criminal elements strangling the city he loves. But they need to act fast because legislation is about to be enacted that will give rise to social and ethnic purging in Chicago. Not knowing who they can trust, they will have to put their faith in one another and risk everything to save a city. |
coldest day in chicago history: Cheech & Chong Tommy Chong, 2008-08-12 Dave's Not Here, Man But America's favorite stoner comedian, Tommy Chong, is back and funnier than ever as he takes us on a nostalgic trip through his career with partner Richard Cheech Marin. Over the course of their decades-long partnership, Cheech and Chong performed to sold-out crowds across the country, made nine hit albums, starred in eight blockbuster movies, and created memorable and iconic characters that still resonate with fans today. But the good life didn't just appear in a haze of smoke. It all started during the late 1960s in a strip club in the fragile heart of Vancouver's Chinatown, where Tommy was winding down his career as a Motown recording artist and starting an improv comedy troupe, and Cheech was a draft-dodging, pottery-throwing, underground music reviewer. Together they came to define the hippie-era counterculture, and theircelebrated movie debut, Up in Smoke, remains one of the highest-grossing Warner Bros. films ever. In his very own unauthorized autobiography, New York Times bestselling author and pop culture hero Chong reveals his unique relationship with Cheech and recalls the inspiration for their most beloved bits. He introduces famous guest stars like Peter Sellers, John Belushi, Jimi Hendrix, Dan Aykroyd, John Lennon, Diana Ross, and Jack Nicholson, and examines the influences that had the greatest impact on his comedy -- from R&B musicians and Redd Foxx to Lenny Bruce and (of course) marijuana. Finally, with keen insight and utter candor, he explores the rift that has separated the legendary comedy team for more than twenty years. From pot smoking to politics to the universe at large, Cheech & Chong: The Unauthorized Autobiography is the closestyou'll ever get to sitting in a van made entirely of marijuana, trading stories with an unlikely legend, and feeling...well...funny. |

coldest day in chicago history: Believer David Axelrod, 2015-02-10 New York Times Book Review “A stout defense--indeed, the best I have read--of the Obama years. A New York Times Bestseller David Axelrod has always been a believer. Whether as a young journalist investigating city corruption, a campaign consultant guiding underdog candidates against entrenched orthodoxy, or as senior adviser to the president during one of the worst crises in American history, Axelrod held fast to his faith in the power of stories to unite diverse communities and ignite transformative political change. Now this legendary strategist, the mastermind behind Barack Obama’s historic election campaigns, shares a wealth of stories from his forty-year journey through the inner workings of American democracy. Believer is the tale of a political life well lived, of a man who never gave up on the deepest promises our country has to offer. Believer reveals the roots of Axelrod’s devotion to politics and his faith in democratic change. As a child of the ’60s in New York City, Axelrod worked his first campaigns during a tumultuous decade that began with soaring optimism and ended in violence and chaos. As a young newspaperman in Chicago during the 1970s and ’80s, Axelrod witnessed another world transformed when he reported on the dissolution of the last of the big city political machines—Richard Daley, Dan Rostenkowski, and Harold Washington—along with the emergence of a dynamic black independent movement that ultimately made Obama’s ascent possible. After cutting his teeth in the rollicking world of Chicago journalism, Axelrod switched careers to become a political strategist. His unorthodox tactics during his first campaign helped him get Paul Simon unexpectedly elected to the Senate, and soon Axelrod’s counsel was sought by the greatest lights of the Democratic Party. Working for path breakers like Hillary Clinton, Deval Patrick, and Rahm Emanuel—and morally conflicted characters like Rod Blagojevich and John Edwards—Axelrod, for better and worse, redefined the techniques by which modern political campaigns are run. The heart of Believer is Axelrod’s twenty-year friendship with Barack Obama, a warm partnership that inspired both men even as it propelled each to great heights. Taking a chance on an unlikely candidate for the U.S. Senate, Axelrod ultimately collaborated closely with Obama on his political campaigns, and served as the invaluable strategist who contributed to the tremendous victories of 2008 and 2012. Switching careers again, Axelrod served as senior adviser to the president during one of the most challenging periods in national history: working at Obama’s side as he battled an economic disaster; navigated America through two wars; and fought to reform health care, the financial sector, and our gridlocked political institutions. In Believer, Axelrod offers a deeper and richer profile of this extraordinary figure—who in just four years vaulted from the Illinois State Senate to the Oval Office—from the perspective of one who was at his side every step of the way. Spanning forty years that include corruption and transformation, turmoil and progress, Believer takes readers behind the closed doors of politics even as it offers a thrilling call to democratic action. Axelrod’s Believer is a powerful and inspiring memoir enlivened by the charm and candor of one of the greatest political strategists in recent American history. DORIS KEARNS GOODWIN, author of The Bully Pulpit and Team of Rivals “Beautifully written with warmth, humor, and remarkable self-awareness, Believer is one of the finest political memoirs I have ever read.” |

Founded in 1781 by Jean Baptiste Point du Sable, an African American from present-day Haiti, Chicago began as a trading post.

The class will also learn about Chicago’s extreme climate, its most famous residents, the local flora and fauna, and the city’s many museums. Haley and her friends will also get to enjoy Chicago’s most famous food—deep-dish “Chicago-style” pizza.
