But you cannot intend to inflict emotional harm on a woman when she is making a very important and often very emotional decision in her life.''The state Department of Regulation and Licensing, which regulates pharmacists and other professionals, opened an investigation into...

    The owner of a McDonald's restaurant in the Hyde Park neighborhood scrapped a policy Thursday that required Kenwood Academy High School students to sit in a separate area from other customers, after a student protesting the policy was handcuffed by Chicago police and taken back to campus. Catherine Smith, 15, was two bites into her Chicken Selects Wednesday when a security guard ordered her and her friends to move because they were sitting in a "non-student" area, she said. "I paid for the food just like everyone else and I'm not leaving," Smith responded. The security guard then called Chicago...
