Redeye. Tuesday, November 16, 2010
Pg. 3 Chicago Tribune

A coyote was been on state street las week. A Commission on Animal Care and Control's Supervisor said maybe the coyote was searching out rodents as mice, rats or rabbits. Also, the supervisor said coyote is not dangerous for people.

This coyote was the second seen this year on the same area, but this one wasn't captured.

Comment: Authorities should be careful with this kind of animals because they are not used to be around people.

PLUGGED IN AN TUNED OUT

CTA riders who use electronics are most satisfied customers

A recent study says CTA train riders are very satisfied, because they can talk on cell phones, tap out e-mails or listen to music while they are using the service.
Many of CTA train riders said they enjoy their trip as well as driving their own personal vehicles. For many reasons people like to get to their destination as quickly as possible. Using communication and information technology makes the travel very comfortable.

Actually, people prefer to use electronic devices while ride, and less people read books or newspaper. I think spend time reading a book o newspaper is a good way to learn English for me. I read daily and pick up new vocabulary while I am riding.

Daley takes former aide Chico to task

The article said that on Thursday Daley took a shot about Gery Chico. Under Daley, Chico served as a president of board of Education, an observation was made while uncovering his education policies, Tuesday. As Chico aid the hired government officials at the Chicago public schools had been bloated under his successors, and promised cuts to save money. Chico never expressed opinions while serving Daley in two high profile education posts.
In my opinion it is difficult to give my opinion because I don’t know how they do their agenda and take their decisions on education.
