Hittin' the links: Nug

After two hours of teeth gnashing and argument, the city council approves the mayor's furlough days plan.

Afterwards, Mick gets into it with the mayor.

The biggest topic of discussion at the Council meeting? How much it costs to carry a dead body.

Hinz (via a fresh Civic Committee report) dings Daley on one of his signature issues: education.

Chicago gets a bit bigger.

Some minor portfolio-swapping in the Daley administration.

Plans to build an Olympic Village roll on, which has Crain's worried.

Having signed away the parking spaces they did have jurisdiction over, Richard Mell (33rd) and Tom Allen (38th) make some noise over some they don't.

Lastly, there seems to be a rash of pot users and sellers going to the cops when their deals go awry. Interesting.
