  1. State senators may take a stand on Turkey's treatment of Orthodox

    Springfield is a long way from Istanbul — 5,660 miles, in fact — but Illinois state senators are considering a resolution that would criticize Turkey's treatment of the Eastern Orthodox religious hierarchy. Even though a majority of senators have co-sponsored the nonbinding measure, it may not make it to a vote.

  7. Knock yourselves out, Senators

    If a good plan for relieving Illinois' pension crisis has momentum, why not offer an inferior proposal that wouldn't do as much good?
