VOLUNTEERS AT 50
Jefferson Airplane revisits its final flight

In celebration of Volunteers' 50th anniversary, Grace Slick, Jorma Kaukonen and Jack Casady revisit their band's final flight.
REBELLIOUS PATRIOTS
Jorma Kaukonen: Looking back on the emotional and political landscape around Volunteers, Jack and I were more interested in the musical aspect than being politically involved in the way Paul [Kantner], Marty [Balin] and Grace were. That being said, if you were a San Francisco musician in that time period, it was impossible not to be involved on some level. We just didn't verbalize it. Volunteers also coincided with all this upheaval in our personal lives. My ex-wife Margareta, Grace, Spencer Dryden—who was Grace's significant other at that time—and I shared a duplex apartment and it burned down. So I wound up living in the big Airplane house until we found a new place. Looking back from the lofty peak we all inhabit today, Volunteers was a pinnacle for the band—there's some classic Paul and Grace stuff on that album. There was still so much passion and involvement by the band members, which I think dovetailed with what was going on culturally. After that, Spencer left and that was the end of the "classic" lineup.
Grace Slick: The title Volunteers is not quite as in depth or as important as you might think. Marty, who was the founder of Jefferson Airplane, happened to see a truck go by that said "Volunteers of America" on it. It's an outfit that helps underprivileged people. He liked the title, so he just used it. [Laughs.] None of us were sure what it meant—we used to just grab things out of the air. I suppose you could turn it around and say that we were rebellious patriots. And lately, I've been even more rebellious. When Donald Trump got elected, it made me cry—and I don't cry. I thought, "If the founding fathers could see what's going on right now, they'd be stunned." The President of the United States is a clown. People have joked, "Even you Democrats would pray for Bush." [Laughs.] It's even more repulsive now than it was then. I just hope that I live long enough to see another president, like [Elizabeth] Warren, get in there—a regular human being. It's hard for it to get worse than it is right now. We had Nixon to contend with, but he was a much better president than Trump—unbelievable.
DOSING EDICT
GS: I was invited to [the White House during Nixon's presidency]. I went to the same college—and I use that word loosely because it was really a finishing school where they taught you how to get a Princeton or Yale boy—as Tricia Nixon. Since it was so small, she sent invitations to all the alumni to come for tea at the White House. Because it was addressed to my maiden name, they just thought I was some broad who went there. I brought Abbie Hoffman, who was one of the Chicago Seven, with me and, as we were in line to go into the White House, security came up to me and said, "I'm sorry, you can't go in because you're a security risk." I said, "No, I'm not. I'm a rockand-roll singer!" They didn't even talk to Abbie, even though he was standing right there and on the FBI's most wanted list!
It's good that they didn't [let me in] because I had about 600 mics of LSD in my pocket. I knew how to do "formalities" because of finishing school. I had a very long, little pinky fingernail and, as I was talking to Richard, I was gonna reach into my pocket, get some LSD under my nail and then gesture over his teacup. We got a big chuckle out of the fact that he would be wandering around the White House, talking about the walls melting. But they wouldn't let me in, so I didn't get a chance to do that. It's probably for the best—it's rude to dose people with acid unless they've had it before. We used to dose each other—if you left a Coca-Cola can open at one of our concerts, where the Dead or Quicksilver and Janice were, you were gonna get dosed.
NOT A MULTITASKER
Jack Casady: Before Volunteers, we recorded all of our albums in Los Angeles. That's where you went back in the day. Eventually, Wally Heider put together a new San Francisco studio just so bands didn't have to slog it out in LA, and we were the first group to record there. That was really the beginning of that San Francisco-era of recording.
GS: San Francisco's small, and our community of rock-androllers was about 15 bands. Jerry Garcia or David Freiberg would come over and put something on a song and we'd go over there and play on their stuff because it was a loose and friendly community. Our first album came easily because we played all the songs live, over and over again. But the consecutive albums took a long time, and it was very expensive for RCA, who was paying for our time.
We did interact with some of the LA bands—Crosby, Stills & Nash and The Mamas and the Papas. Paul knew Crosby and Stephen from being an acoustic folk singer. One song we did with Crosby was "Triad," which was frowned on by a lot of people because it's talking about three people making love at the same time—even his group wouldn't let him record it. He brought it to me and I said, "Sure, I'll do that." I don't do triads, not because I object to them morally, but because I'm not a multitasker, so doing two people at once would be confusing for me. I wouldn't like it because there's too much going on. "Whose leg is this? Whose arm? Is that my left ear?"
SOMEBODY DIFFERENT EVERYDAY
JC: After Surrealistic Pillow, we were able to renegotiate our label contract and take control in the studio. It was a very fertile and exciting time because, usually, the studio was a very nerve-wracking experience. We were able to experiment more—sometimes with great results and sometimes with not as great results. All the guys were doing it—Jimi Hendrix was doing it on his Ladyland album, which I was a part of, and the Grateful Dead started experimenting in the studio.
JK: There was a lot of improv that happened in our live sets. Look at the canvas that Jack, Spencer and myself had a chance to paint on. We had some of the great writers of the American songbook. Paul, Grace and Marty wrote such idiosyncratic stuff, especially Paul and Grace. People occasionally ask me: "Why don't you solo like you did with the Airplane anymore?" The answer is that we don't play those kinds of songs anymore. In a live context, our singers allowed us to do that.
In a more traditional, successful rock-and-roll venture, the singer would always be the most important thing, and the side band would get fired if they screwed around. But we were encouraged to screw around. One of the things that I told Grace the last time I had dinner with her was, "I'm really sorry that we played so loud while you sang. If I had to do it over again, the dynamics would have been better." But it was a real team effort. We supported our great singers as best we could. When the time came to take off, they just said, "fly." And nobody played the guitar like Paul. He rarely gets the credit that he deserves for the sound of the Airplane. He wasn't a typical rock-and-roll rhythm guitar player. The mixture of him, Spencer and Jack, in my opinion, defined what became the Airplane's sound.
GS: Sometimes we'd play for four or five hours. Jorma, Paul, Jack or somebody would yell out "D minor!" and just jam. And Marty or I would make up lyrics. Now, the rappers like Eminem and Dr. Dre do it better than we did—the first time I understood that was when I saw the movie 8 Mile. But mostly, it'd just be instrumental [jams]. Now, it's more organized as far as who goes on when, what they wear. We didn't have any exploding chickens or dancers back then—they were lucky that we just showed up with our clothes on. I never wore tie-dye because I didn't like it, but we wore actual costumes in the '60s—sometimes I'd dress as a pirate all day and just go to the grocery store like that. It was great sport to just be somebody different every day—a boy, a girl. I was never an animal because those outfits are too hot, but I was every human you could think of. Though, these days, I'm mostly dressing as a sweatshirt-and-sweatpants human being. [Laughs.]

"Got to Revolution!"
New Jefferson Airplane mural honors Volunteers on its 50th anniversary
Jefferson Airplane, Volunteers, Volunteers50
A new mural has just been installed at the corner of Haight Street and Masonic Street in San Francisco to celebrate 50 years of Jefferson Airplane's revolutionary record, Volunteers. Released in November of 1969, the band addressed the important issues of the day from changing demographics of America challenging the status quo ("We Can Be Together"), the need to care for planet earth and the unimportance of human concerns as compared to the vastness of the natural universe ("The Farm" and "Eskimo Blue Day"), the downsides of progress for progress' sake ("Wooden Ships"), the challenge of learning to care for mental health ("Turn My Life Down"), and, of course, the need to be civically involved and engaged ("Volunteers").
The mural, designed by local San Francisco artist Maxfield Bala – Rasmussen, will remain in place at the center of the countercultural movement that Jefferson Airplane helped to create until December 31, 2019.
Visitors are encouraged to take pictures with the mural and post to their social media accounts using #Volunteers50.
The record is as relevant, if not more so, today than it was 50 years ago upon its release. Stream now. https://found.ee/Volunteers-1

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — State lawmakers pushing an overhaul of Ohio's school-funding system say proposals to change how the state takes control of poor-performing districts shouldn't be part of the budget debate.
Rep. John Patterson, a Democrat from Jefferson in northeastern Ohio, says lawmakers working on the issue need more time than the budget debate allows.
Rep. Robert Cupp, a Republican from Lima, says he prefers not to see big policy changes enacted through the state budget process, but rather in their own bills.
Some lawmakers propose reversing a law that shifted operational control of poor-performing Ohio school districts to state-appointed panels and unelected CEOs instead of locally elected boards.
Other lawmakers would leave such districts under state control but prevent more so-called "state takeovers" through such commissions.

Мі́сто Бо́га () — бразильський фільм 2002 року. На 13 серпня 2021 року фільм займав 22-у позицію у списку 250 найкращих фільмів за версією IMDb.

Сюжет

Головна дійова особа картини — сам район де відбуваються події, один із найнебезпечніших у Ріо-де-Жанейро. Оповідь ведеться від імені Бушкапе — чорношкірого підлітка, який є надто слабким і боязким для того, щоб стати злочинцем, але досить талановитим для того, щоб стати гарним фотографом і творчою особистістю. Саме його очима глядачі бачать життя, любов і смерть багатьох героїв, долі яких сплітаються й перетинаються з розвитком сюжету.

Дві гангстерські банди б'ються на знищення. Значна частина бандитів — діти. Вони грають не в машинки, а в револьвери, стріляючи по живих мішенях. Підростають, стають вбивцями й збирають нових бійців. Найстрашніше у фільмі — не завалені трупами вулиці, а засмагла дитяча нога, прострелена крізь сандалію. «Куди тобі вистрілити? — запитує Малий Зе. — У руку або в ногу?».

Насильство — реакція голодного, приниженого, загнаного виживати у величезному капкані — Місті Бога. Мейрелліш розвертає на екрані монументальну фреску вбогості бразильського мегаполіса, жорстокого й сентиментального. «Місто Бога» — фільм про неминуче наступаючу епоху соціального хаосу.

Правда, ближче до фіналу сага губить набраний темп. До слова про героїв. Вони відібрані прямо на вуличках Міста Бога.

У ролях
 Алешандре Родрігеш — Бушкапе
 Леандру Фірміну ду Ора — Маленький Зе
 Сеу Джордж — Мане Галінья (Красунчик Нед)
 Матеус Нахтергалє — Морква
 Феліпе Хаагенсен — Бенні
 Джонатан Хаагенсен — Патлатий
 Дуглас Сілва — Дадінью (Маленький Зе)
 Алісе Брага — Анжеліка

Цікаві факти
 Фільм став рекордсменом за кількістю зайнятих у зйомках непрофесійних акторів, зібрав близько 55 нагород і 25 номінацій фестивалів і різних гільдій, номінований на чотири «Оскари», «Місто Бога» увібрав у себе найкращі риси фільмів Мартіна Скорсезе, Спайка Лі й «Суки-любові» Алехандро Гонсалеса Іньярітту.
 У фільму Фернанду Мейрелліша рейтинг «R» — кіно, що буяє жорстоким насиллям і ненормативною лексикою. Це теперішній кіноепос. Тільки по-бразильськи. Коли емоції переливаються через край, а екран розпікає пристрасть болю й насильства. Навіть кольори на екрані стають брунатно-іржаві: чи то сонцем спечені, чи то засохлою на дорозі кров'ю.
 Фільм зроблено за однойменним романом Паулу Лінса. «Місто Бога» — назва житлового району в передмісті Ріо-де-Жанейро, де виріс сам автор книги. Щоб написати її, Паулу Лінс вісім років опитував жителів району, збирав матеріали про організацію місцевого наркобізнесу, що привела до війни банд у цьому передмісті в 1970-80 роки.

Variable magnetic resistance unit for an exercise device
Status: Active Grant
1. A bicycle trainer, comprising:
a frame configured to support a bicycle having a driven wheel; and
a resistance device secure as a unit to the frame, wherein the resistance device comprises;
a housing supported by the frame;
a roller rotatably supported by the housing, wherein the roller is arranged engage the driven wheel of the bicycle for rotation in response to rotation of the driven wheel;
a rotatable member rotatably supported by the housing and interconnected with the roller for rotation in response to rotation of the driven wheel, wherein the rotatable member is rotatable about an axis of rotation in response to rotation of the driven wheel;
a stationary electrically conductive member mounted to the housing adjacent the rotatable member; and
one or more magnetic members movably mounted to the rotatable member, wherein the magnetic members are movable relative to the stationary electrically conductive member and relative to the axis of rotation in response to variations in the speed of rotation of the rotatable member;
wherein the one or more magnetic members and the electrically conductive member cooperate to form an eddy current force which resists rotation of the rotatable member and thereby resists rotation of the roller and the driven wheel, wherein movement of the one or more magnetic members relative to the stationary electrically conductive member functions to alter the location of the eddy current force relative to the axis of rotation to vary the resistance to rotation of the rotatable member in response to the speed of rotation of the rotatable member caused by rotation of the roller and the driven wheel.
An automatically adjusting magnetic resistance unit for an exercise device such as a bicycle trainer, in which the degree of resistance is automatically and non-linearly adjusted in relation to the rotational speed of a rotating member caused by the input of a user. The rotating member may be in the form of a flywheel having a number of supports extending between a hub and a rim. The supports define longitudinal grooves which slidably retain magnets that are biased inwardly toward the hub by biasing members. An electrically conductive member is located adjacent the flywheel. As the flywheel rotates in response to rotation of the bicycle wheel, the magnets interact with the conductive member to establish eddy currents that provide resistance to the rotation of the flywheel. The speed of rotation of the flywheel increases as the speed of rotation of the bicycle wheel increases, and centrifugal forces act on the magnets to cause the magnets to slide outwardly along the grooves in opposition to the bias of the biasing members. The outward movement of the magnets causes outward movement of the eddy current forces, to increase the resistance provided to rotation of the flywheel and the bicycle wheel. The variable resistance due to the increased or decreased rotational speed of the flywheel is smooth, based on the constant interaction of the counteracting forces of the biasing members and the centrifugal forces acting on the magnets.

So is it calculating bad signals realtime?
or calculating bad signals after the fact?
or is it different data thats being pulled up after a shutdown?
The signals always should be the same.
2. Could you send us your strategy and workspace?
Im running the latest beta....But after alot of research I found that its the data being pulled up.....Fow example, the low in YMU7 on 7/25 was 13731, after the chart was closed and reloaded the low was shown as 13737, and also many other bars had different levels than originally traded in realtime, which means my signals, which are based on ticks, I use a 15 point chart, are being calculated on different levels, so thats why my results are different. Now I still dont know if this is caused by MC storing bad data or IB sending bad after a reload. Ive cleared the cache of the symbol and reloaded the data from IB and still the the bad ticks, so I imagine its an IB problem and I must look for a new data provider....But if the data in realtime is coming in good, why dosent MC store the good data and just pull that up after i reload?
It is very good you've diagnosed the problem. I have two important comments.
1. If you use point bars, it is important to know that start point is critical. It means that you should use From-To in Format Symbol dialog. If you use Bars back your starting point changes and the charts will be different. It is natural for range based charts.
2. My previous comment about the same signals is not completely correct.
It is correct for signals that enter on open or close of a bar.
All signals that enter inside the bar will be different on real-time and history.
It is natural since historical back-testing has a primitive assumption for price movement. at the same time real-time price movement is different.
As you begin working with TS, it's important to understand that an entry or exit 'order' in a strategy is not exactly the same thing as placing an order in the real-world using the Order Bar. That's because strategy orders are also applied to historical data as well as to current market data. And when applying strategy orders to historical data, the TS strategy-engine uses the available price data to see if the order could have been filled and marks the bar chart with arrows to indicate where that fill might have occurred.
By comparison, a real-world order is submitted to the market and is filled only when an actual trade occurs. And as you may have experienced, sometimes the market may hit your price without your order being filled because there were many other orders already in the market at the same price.
It's especially important to understand this difference between strategy orders and real-world orders when it comes time to automate a strategy since it's very likely that the actual market fills will not exactly match those fills approximated by the strategy as it plays out in real-time.

A little weekend style inspiration. This outfit would be so cute for the 4th of July, too! I have this body con dress in the black and grey, but am thinking a pop of color would be a fun addition to my closet.
I'm loving that red dress! Gorgeous style!

March and April were lost time for me. They were dominated by my adventures with kidney stones–5mm, 8mm, and 9mm, all on the left side. It took three outpatient procedures (with full anesthesia, my first since 2nd grade) to resolve them. I only had one truly terrible day of unrelenting brain-melting pain, but there were far too many weeks when I couldn't risk as much as a walk around the block.
With my activity that sharply curbed, I gained weight, fell behind on basic household maintenance, and completely lost momentum on the Second Layer Problem (discussed here previously). I'm working on getting back on task now, but my energy level is still sub-par.

Climber who uses colostomy bag to lead Himalayan expedition
26/03/2019 - 12:00:00Back to Discover stories Discover Home
A mountaineer who uses a colostomy bag will lead a high-altitude Himalayan expedition next month.
Mick Fowler, 62, will attempt to scale a 6,000m peak in the mountain range that has not been climbed before.
He was diagnosed with cancer of the anus in 2017 and now uses a colostomy bag after undergoing extensive treatment which included an ostomy – a procedure to redirect the bowel to an exit through an opening in the abdomen wall.
Mick Fowler was diagnosed with cancer in 2017 (Berghaus/PA)
The diagnosis halted plans he had with climbing partner Vic Saunders to attempt a Himalayan expedition that year.
But the pair will now attempt to complete what will be the first major Himalayan expedition that is led by someone who uses a colostomy bag, according to a statement issued ahead of the trip.
Fowler said: "My cancer diagnosis was an unwelcome interruption to plans and there were times during my treatment when I doubted whether I would be able to return to the Himalaya.
"So I am looking forward to this trip with even more anticipation than usual."
Fowler, who lives in Derbyshire, will also find out how the colostomy bag performs at high altitude and in extreme weather conditions.
He added: "This trip involves the added dimension of me now being an ostomate and I am looking for a solution to the 'colostomy bag at altitude' conundrum which will help other mountaineers who need to use this kind of kit to continue their climbing adventures."
Mick Fowler will complete the expedition with partner Vic Saunders (Berghaus/PA)
In 2016, the pair completed an ascent of the north face of Sersank, a mountain in the Indian Himalaya, almost 30 years after they last climbed together.
Their latest expedition will take place next month.

Thus saith the Lord Almighty: "Behold, I send My messenger before Thy face, who shall prepare Thy way before Thee, and the Lord whom ye seek, shall come into His temple. But who can endure the day of His coming? For He is coming like the fire of a furnace and like the fuller's herb; and He shall cleanse, refining and purifying, as it were, silver and gold. And He comes to you with judgment, and will be a swift witness against the evil ones and against adulterers, and against those who swear falsely by My name, against those who withhold the hireling's wages, against those who oppress widows and beat orphans, against those who avoid judgment in favor of strangers, and against those who do not fear him," saith the Lord Almighty.
"For I am the Lord your God, and I change not; and you, the sons of Jacob, have turned aside from the law and have not kept it. Return to Me, therefore, and I will return to you," saith the Lord Almighty. "And all nations shall call you blessed, and they shall understand that I am the Lord, who distinguishes between the righteous and between the transgressors on that day, in which I shall act to spare those who love Me.
"Know, therefore, and remember the Law of Moses, My servant, as I commanded you at Horeb, the statutes and ordinances for all Israel.

Several weeks ago I was lucky enough to win some NeoCell Collagen ImmuCell, in a giveaway hosted by Women's Endurance Gear. I was really excited to try it as I have read a lot of articles online and in health newsletters, about collagen, what it does in our bodies, how it degrades as we age, and the benefits of collagen supplements.
Simply stated, collagen is a fibrous type of protein found in our bodies, that supports and connects other tissues. It has been referred to as the glue that holds our bodies together.
As adults age, the body slowly loses collagen, and the cartilage around joints can weaken causing pain, the gums are vulnerable to periodontal disease, and the skin can sag and wrinkle.
I have been taking the NeoCell Collagen ImmuCell capsules since they arrived and I am no longer having any pain in my left hip joint when I run. I am extremely happy about this and do intend to keep taking collagen supplements as long as I run and want to be intensely physically active.
Recently NeoCell sent me a container of their Collagen Sport Whey Isolate Complex to sample and review. They market this supplement as a '4 in 1 product' - Refuel, Recover, Regenerate, and Replenish. Please click on the link to read the details for yourself.
I chose French Vanilla because I like to use my protein powders in a variety of ways and I thought it would be more versatile than the Belgian Chocolate.
This powder has a whopping 30g of protein in a single serving and mixes very easily into liquids and other foodstuffs with just a spoon. No need to use a blender or a shaker jar. I tried it myself, and I think this would make it very easy to take along and use on trips or in your gym bag.
I was a bit surprised by the color… it is a creamy white when it is dry, but after it is wet, it turns a light brown.
But I am delighted with the taste. It is not sweet at all, and has a natural vanilla flavor. The texture is light and there is no clumping or grittiness at all. It is not 'dusty' tasting like some other whey powders I have tasted.
I have been using this Collagen Sport in my usual ways. I have been mixing it into our morning oats on running days.
and with peanut butter and Greek yogurt for The Captain.
We have also been enjoying it in our after-run smoothies. I like to add some fruit as it has no added sugars. I have tried bananas, oranges, and also frozen berries.. Because it has a lovely vanilla flavor it goes really well with fruit of all kinds. I think mango and kiwis would be very good with it. If I was not going to add fruit, and just wanted a protein drink I think I would add a bit of Stevia to sweeten it a bit, although I did taste it without and it is not unpleasant or bitter... it is just not sweet.
And a few days ago, I was experimenting with making some raw protein 'balls' and came up with a Lemon and Chia version. You can find the recipe on my food blog We can begin to feed.
I would love to try the Belgian Chocolate now and wish I had asked for both!
Would you like to try some of this Collagen Sport Whey Isolate Complex? To get in on this giveaway, just leave me a comment telling me about your favorite way to use protein powder, and which flavor you would choose if you win… French Vanilla or Belgian Chocolate.
Then, if you would like a second entry, tweet about this giveaway and be sure to include @eatrunsail and @NeoCellSport in your tweet. Leave another comment telling me you did this.
I will select the winning entry on Friday, April 20th and post the winner's name on Saturday, April 21st. I will also try to contact the winner by email (if I have an email address). The winner will have until Monday April 23rd at noon PDT to contact me by email at eatrunsail@gmail.com to claim the prize. If I do not have an email or blog comment from the winner by then, I will choose another entry.
I did receive this product in exchange for a review on my blog, but the opinions expressed are 100% my own.
The change in color is indeed strange, but I also appreciated the lack of added sweetness.
I like it as a shake or in my oats. I would choose the chocolate this time!
i like making the lil protein bites/bars with oats, nut butters and protein powders! or i like to put it in my smoothies! i would love to try the french vanilla!!
This would be amazing! Thanks for the review and I love vanilla since it mixes well into my pancakes and oatmeal!
I just use protein into shakes! And that stuff is amazing and so tasty! I would definetly go for the French Vanilla as its my favorite!!
I love using protein powder in my protein pancakes...so good and carb & sugar free! Yummy!
I was actually thinking about getting this protein powder but wasnt sure if I should. Then I cam across your blog and this review. Perfect timing! :) This protein powder sounds great and I would love to give it a try! Thanks for hosting the giveaway and giving us the opperatunity to try this product out!!!
I honestly wouldnt mind either flavor. Both sound amazing! But since I use protein powder for so many things, I think I would go with French Vanilla. I agree with you, its so much for versatile than a chocolate flavor!
I love protein shakes and making protein balls for quick snacks or a quick fix post workout!!
Oh and I would like to try chocolate, because I have never tried chocolate protein powder before, and I can just see the yummy chocolate mint protein balls already!!!
I put protein powder in my post-workout smoothies; sometimes after long runs and almost always after weights. I would probably like both flavours, but if I had to pick one, I would start with the chocolate :D Off to tweet!
I would choose Belgian chocolate for my smoothies--post long run and strength workouts...and double workouts!
Belgian chocolate for my post-long run, post weights, post double workout days!
I may be too late, but I would love to try this product if I can still enter. Protein shakes are the quickest and most effective way for me to recover after a workout. I would pick the vanilla because, as you said, I think it would go with more things. I would also share this with my Dad, who has been drinking shakes lately.
By the way, this is a great review!!
I like protein powder just as a regular smoothie, and the belgian chocolate sounds delish!
I put protein powder in smoothies. I like the belgian chocolate.
I'd love to try the french vanilla! Although, you bring up a good point of the belgian chocolate in the protein balls!
Protein balls or smoothies is how I would use it!
Glad your hip is feeling better!
i love this stuff. my favorite way is old school - banana smoothie. I drink it after hard workouts. Helped me lose weight and feel great while training for a marathon. I'd love more!

Chicago Fire FC Introduces New Head CoachRaphael Wicky was introduced Wednesday as the ninth head coach of the Fire.
New Chicago Police Station Opens At O'Hare International Airport
Filed Under:Chicago News, Chicago Police Department, Lori Lightfoot, O'Hare International Airport
CHICAGO (CBS) — Mayor Lori Lightfoot cut the ribbon Tuesday morning on a new Chicago Police Department facility at O'Hare International Airport, providing more office space and training space for officers.
The new facility includes a new roll call room, locker rooms with showers, a modern gym, interview rooms, and dedicated space for the airport's bomb squad, SWAT teams, and K-9 units.
"I can tell you without a doubt that this facility is a great improvement over our last facility," said Chicago Police Cmdr. William Mullane, who has been assigned to O'Hare since 2016, when the new facility was still in the planning stages.
Mullane said the new facility also features fiber optic internet lines, which allow officers to stay up to date on all of their training, by more easily completing certification courses online.
The new police station was built on the site of an old warehouse and office space at the airport. Officers began moving into the new facility in September, and are now completely settled in to the new station.
Bowa Construction, a black-owned family business headquartered on the South Side, was the prime contractor on the construction project.
"Bowa led the coordination of more than 25 subcontractors to complete this renovation, transforming a former warehouse into a state-of-the-art facility," Lightfoot said.
Bowa was the first minority-owned prime contractor in Illinois to be awarded an airport construction contract in Chicago.
"It's past time that we opened up the doors of opportunity. There is always an excuse to say 'No, it's not your time.' Businesses from every community should be able to compete for contracts, and win those contracts," Lightfoot said. "Good-paying jobs should go to residents from all neighborhoods and backgrounds, and this facility is proof of what happens when we level the playing field, and when we say 'Yes, now is your time.'"
Bowa President and CEO Nosa Ehimwenman choked up as he thanked his father, a taxi driver who used to pick up passengers at O'Hare to put food on the family's table.
"My father always told me 'Be disciplined, work hard, and good things will happen," he said. "This project represents a long journey, as I mentioned. It represents, again, equity, inclusion, diversity, and change. This city has 77 neighborhoods, 2.7 million people, and it's the first time that a prime contractor that looks like me has completed a project at the airport as a prime."
The new police facility is part of an ongoing $8.5 billion expansion of the airport. Aviation Commissioner Jamie Rhee said the old police station was in the way of an expansion of the International Terminal.

Gough Whitlam was the 21st Prime Minister of Australia. Gough Whitlam led the Labor Party for ten years and held the Prime Minister office from 1972 to 1975 with progressive ideas for that time.
Gough Whitlam was born on July 11, 1916, in Kew, Melbourne, Australia. His name at birth was Edward Gough Whitlam but went by his middle name as his grandfather was also named Edward. Gough Whitlam's father Fred was a Crown solicitor and often moved for his job. The family followed him from Melbourne to Sydney then Canberra.
Since the family sometimes moved during his childhood, Gough Whitlam attended some primary and grammar schools. When he lived in Canberra, he attended the government Telopea Park School. Gough Whitlam later transferred to Canberra Grammar School. After high school, Whitlam attended St. Paul's College at the University of Sydney. During his time there, he was an editor for the college journal and the magazine.
Gough Whitlam graduated with a Bachelor of Arts degree in classics. He continued to study law when World War II started.
Gough Whitlam registered for the Royal Australian Air Force when the war started. However, he was not called to service until 1942. As part of that service, he was a navigator with orders to protect some of the convoys in Northern Australia. Near the end of the war, Whitlam joined the Labor Party. He also completed his law degree and was admitted to the New South Wales and federal courts. Whitlam was active in local politics, which helped him when he ran for House of Representatives in 1952.
Gough Whitlam became a part of the American Labor Party minority. Gough Whitlam was elected the deputy leader in 1960. His youth, energy, and fresh ideas appealed to the younger voters of the country. In 1972, Gough Whitlam became the Labor Party's first Prime Minister. Gough Whitlam pushed for new initiatives and programs to help the country. He was the first Prime Minister to visit the People's Republic of China after resuming diplomatic relations.
Gough Whitlam enacted the Family Law Act with the first "no-fault divorce law." However, his time as Prime Minister had many roadblocks. When the parliament could not pass a budget in 1975, the governor at that time John Kerr dismissed Whitlam from his position. Not only did Gough Whitlam lose the election in 1977, but Gough Whitlam also resigned from the party leadership position and parliament.
Gough Whitlam recounted his dismissal from the role of Prime Minister in his memoirs The Truth of the Matter. It was published in 1979. He also wrote Abiding Interests which was published in 1997.
Gough Whitlam married Margaret Elaine Dovey. She was a swimmer in the 1938 British Empire Games. The couple had four children. Gough Whitlam died on October 21, 2014, at the age of 98.
