Involuntary Discharge? I'm glad I visited the CTA website before walking to the L tonight - looks like the Purple, Yellow and Red lines aren't running until further notice due to a medical emergency. That's a pretty big deal, even on a weekend. I wonder how often this happens? Be sure to read the alert all the way to the end...  Update: good thing I got that screenshot, it's already been fixed.

Defying Gravity Many of you know that my cousin Ryan is one of the wig gurus for Wicked on Broadway. You probably didn't know that Nicole Parker recently started playing Elphaba, but Broadway.com did a pictorial about the process of "greenifying" her and you get to see Ryan at work!

Understanding the Complex World of Derivatives I didn't expect to laugh out loud when reading my Investments textbook, but the fact that I'm using the fifth edition (which Kristi bought in 2002 at Madison) instead of the current eighth edition means I get to read things like this... "What are derivatives anyway, and why are people saying such terrible things about them? Some critics see the derivatives market as a multi-trillion-dollar house of cards composed of interlocking, highly leveraged transactions. They fear the default of a single large player could stun the world financial system. But others, including Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan, say the risk of such a meltdown is negligible."Ah, hindsight. In case you're interested, the entire book is available in a single PDF, courtesy of the School of Economics at Shandong University.
