The image of federal agents on downtown streets far from McCormick Place — in battle gear, weapons slung — three weeks before the summit is certain to have a chilling effect on those who live and work in the Loop. It also calls into question Host Committee Executive Director Lori Healey’s oft-repeated message that Chicago will remain “open for business” during the summit. On Thursday, Healey found herself in the difficult position of having to convince the public that a scary headline that blindsided even her is not an indication that the feds are bracing...

Dmitry Medvedev says he and Vladimir Putin to rule Russia for 'long time' No Plans for NATO Base in Russia – Foreign Ministry   Huge green cloud over Moscow has terrified Russians tweeting for their lives Anxious Russians have been bombarding Twitter today with fears about an ominous green cloud looming over Moscow. Having awoken to the bizarrely tinged skies talk of chemical spills and ash clouds soon dominated the site, while some even connected the unusual scenes to today's anniversary of the nuclear disaster in Chernobyl. But as suggestions of evacuations emerged and thousands of nervy phone calls reached the capital's bosses it appears there is no need to panic. Because far from paranormal or the onset of war, according to...
