May not seem like it...but Chicago's crime rate is slowly dropping (cross your fingers)

June 2010 Crime Stats
Chicago Police Announce Official June 2010 Crime Statistics
18th Consecutive Month of Lower Overall Crime in the City
CHICAGO- Today, Superintendent Jody P. Weis released official crime trends which emerged through the end of June 2010. Total crime dropped Citywide by 3.9 percent and was supported by a 10.6 percent drop in violent index offenses and 1.9 percent decrease in property index crimes. This results in an 18-month consecutive trend of lower overall crime in Chicago.
Superintendent Weis recognized the increase in homicides, a total which, at the end of June, was up by 5.4%. The 214 homicides recorded between January and June were 11 more than last year. However, Weis is encouraged that the crime reduction initiatives are paying off. "Through today's date, homicides are flat when compared to the same time period last year," Weis stated. "This is encouraging. However, zero is the only acceptable number, and the men and women of the Department work diligently in support of this goal every day," he added.
Every other category of violent crime decreased, with criminal sexual assaults, robberies, and aggravated assaults all down by at least 9.3 percent. Fourteen of the 25 police districts experienced double digit decreases in violent crime, and another six declined overall in violence compared to last year. Aggravated Batteries with a Firearm also declined by 1.4 percent.
At the end of June, Chicago Police seized 4,241 weapons, which were 210 more than police recovered last year during the same period. Assault weapon recoveries totaled 155 through the end of June.
With over 1,000 fewer property crime incidents through the end of June, property index offenses dropped almost 2 percent compared to last year during the same period. Arson showed the greatest drop at 16 percent, followed by theft at 6.7 percent. Motor vehicle theft was the only property crime category to rise compared to 2009, up by 21.3 percent.
Superintendent Weis continues to urge the public to stay involved. "If you stay silent, you are going to stay scared," Weis stated. "It doesn’t matter how you get the information to us; but the consequences could be tragic if you do not. The only person who benefits is the offender," he added.
According to official statistics through the end of June 2010:
Violent Index Crime is down 10.6 percent
Homicide—up 5.4 percent
Criminal Sexual Assault—down 9.3 percent
Robbery—down 13.1 percent
Aggravated Assault—down 11.4 percent
Aggravated Battery—down 7.3 percent
Property Index Crime is down 1.9 percent
Burglary—down 0.5 percent
Theft—down 6.7 percent
Motor Vehicle Theft—up 21.3 percent
Arson—down 16 percent Credits: Alert Message has been issued by the Chicago Police Department - Headquarters.

Brutha Interview With Examiner.com
Brutha Interview With Examiner.com

"We all share the same passion and we're all taught by our dad. We have music in us and we live and breathe it." Anthony told me when I sat down to get to know this smooth Brutha-hood. And it's clear right away that each brother contributes his own distinct flavor to the group creating the perfect blend.
Grady, who his brothers accused of being a lady's man admits, "I sing most of the top notes in the harmonies. And I attract a lot of women and just pass them off to my brothers."
Anthony said, "I actually produce music. I'm not a famous producer but one day I hope to be. I come up with a lot of the ideas for songs and I actually work on our vibe and stuff."
While Jake says he likes to be smooth but, "When I get onstage I like to be explosive so I bring a lot of energy onstage but really smooth singing to all our harmonies."
The softer spoken J.R. adds, "I think I bring the same kind of element that Jacob brings, the smooth harmonies and everything, only at times I'm not smooth. I have a wider range, a kind of urban hip hop thing."
And Papa, who his brother's dubbed the Teddy Pedergrass of the group brings the bass and fashion sense to the mix saying, "I have the lowest voice so I take most of the bass notes and give it a nice little grown up sound. Also, I'm very fashion forward so I keep my brothers updated on the cool little trends. I like to make sure everyone around here is fresh."
They do look as fresh as they sound on their new album Vacancy which is due out in the Spring of 2010 and was inspired by a three day trip they took to Las Vegas. Papa said, "Those three days we had in Vegas were so crazy we just started going with the hotel theme idea and we stuck with it." continuing, "The basic three themes are: sex, fun, love and all the above." Since the debut single on the album, 'One Day On This Earth is a love song Anthony explained, "We're kind of working backwards by telling the love of our lives 'I wanna spend my last day with you' and then we're gonna work back and get to the sex, getting in trouble, having fun, going crazy and things."
Featured artists on Vacancy include Rick Ross and one of the Harrell brother's R&B idols R. Kelly. Anthony said, "R. Kelly is great man. He's one of the main artists that we've always wanted to work with. For years now we've been saying ‘We got to work with R. Kelly.' Kelly appears on a track called 'Talk Box' and wrote 'One Day On This Earth'. "We're still tripping that we got to work with him, you know. It's a dream come true. He's a genius."
As if the Vegas inspired album wasn't enough guilt to admit to, for fun I asked Brutha to admit their musical guilty pleasures as well. Their sense of humor and eclectic love for music emerged instantly when J.R. dished, "I like that song, I think it's by Kelly Clarkson, ‘Since You've Been Gone'." And the laughter erupted when Anthony boasted, "I got one and I don't even necessarily like the artist but the song is growing on me, Waka Flocka Flame 'Oh Let's Do It'. It's growin' on me." And Jake added, "I like a bunch of rock. I love Coldplay, Maroon 5, Lifehouse, all them bands, I love them all."
With larger than life personality and sound, the rich vocals and smooth R&B flavor make Brutha a group to keep an eye on this summer. Jake summarized it best when he revealed what he classify's as a theme song for his life right now, "I think mine right now is ‘This Time Around' by Michael Jackson. That song embodies what we're doing. We're not wet behind the ears no more, we're sophomores in the game and we're coming hard."

Windows Live Writer
So I’m trying out this Windows Live Writer thing on my comp just because. I love blogging so being able to do it without having an internet window open seems cool! lol I’m silly I know. Anyway, today (well yesterday) was my first day out since I got back from the hospital. It was weird. I can’t walk as fast as I used to, or do anything as fast as I used to. In addition to this, I’m still waiting on my iron pills to be ready. This is ridiculous anemia is new to me, so I need those pills like 3 days ago! My head feels like it’s about to explode now and my heart keeps beating fast like I’ve ran a marathon and I haven’t done anything close to that! So I decided for tomorrow I’ll just sleep, eat, and chill because there is no way I am going to make it through 3 classes especially when two of them are back to back making me sit from 1:30-5:20 HECK NO! Plus today I realize I shouldn’t have done as much as I did do today. I was just excited to be around people I forgot I should be relaxing. Not to worry though because my body reminded me…smh (shaking my head). Anyway I’m done blogging for now I’ll write later. Pray for me people..I’m hoping I can get back on track with my school work and make good grades for midterms and keep them for the rest of the semester. God bless! Love you all!

Earth in my hometown Chicago!!! Yikes!
Mild earthquake rattles Chicago area

This farm field on Plank Road in Hampshire was the epicenter of an overnight earthquake in Illinois, according to the U.S. Geological Survey. (Stacey Wescott/Tribune)
A mild earthquake shook northern Illinois this morning.
The U.S. Geological Survey reported a 3.8-magnitude quake at 3:59:33 a.m. centered in a farm field on Plank Road near Hampshire and 3.1 miles underground. Initially, it had reported the magnitude as 4.3 with an epicenter about 5.5 miles east of Sycamore.
The quake was felt over a wide area -- from Wisconsin to Tennessee -- but there were no reports of any damage so far, according to the Kane County and DeKalb County sheriff's departments, which are closest to the epicenter.
"We got hundreds of calls," said DeKalb County Sheriff Roger Scott. "But we have no reports of damage or injuries."
The magnitude and epicenter were revised after the U.S. Geological Survey studied the "wave forms" from the quake, said Amy Vaughan, a geophysicist with the geological survey in Golden, Colo.
The nature of the fault activity that caused the quake was unclear, Vaughn said. Past quakes that have affected southern Illinois have been in the Wabash Valley or New Madrid seismic zones.
The fault systems in northern Illinois are not as well understood as those in other regions where earthquakes are more common, and more investigation will be needed to determine the cause of this morning's temblor, Vaughan said.
A 5.2-magnitude earthquake struck near downstate West Salem on April 18, 2008. That quake was the worst to hit Illinois since 1968.
By contrast, the earthquake that leveled Haiti on Jan. 12 registered 7.0 on the Richter Scale, meaning it was about 1,600 times the magnitude of the one this morning. Many of the numerous aftershocks to hit the island were approximately the same magnitude as the quake that hit near Sycamore today.
Reports of tremors came in from Villa Park, Western Springs, Minooka, Batavia, Naperville, Elgin, Oak Lawn, Des Plaines and even Crown Point, Ind. In Chicago, reports came from the Northwest Side andLogan Square. The USGS has received thousands of reports from as far north as Madison, Wis., and as far south as Bourbonnais.

"The whole house shook," said Walter Mockus of St. Charles. "The chimes that hang were all ringing. It was so loud, I thought a plane had gone down."
"It was 4:02 a.m. and I was in bed and felt the whole house shaking," said Bob Bulmash of Warrenville. "But nothing fell down. It lasted about 3 to 5 seconds."
In Naperville, Julie Hannon said the quake shook her out of a sound sleep.
"When you feel an earthquake, it makes you wake up right away," said Hannon, who said she had experienced several quakes when she lived in Japan. "You could feel a shaking and you could hear a rumbling."
"I heard the plates I didn't wash from dinner rattle," said Alice Fabbre of Joliet. "The house shook, but it was very short. At first, I thought it was a snow plow going by.""It shook me out bed. I was was sleeping and the whole bed was shaking, it was that violent," said Rex Covington, who lives in Plato Center Township, about five miles west of Elgin. He estimated the tremor lasted 5 or 6 seconds.
"When I called 911, she said they felt the shock too and said their whole building in Geneva shook."
In Oak Lawn, Ron Cerevic, who lives on the second floor of an apartment building, said it felt "like someone hit the side of the building."
"The glass shower door shook violently," said Tracey Fry of Carol Stream. "It sounded like someone was in the shower pounding on the door."
