president obama and the first family are spending the weekend at home in chicago. they will arrive late this afternoon. this will be the first time in two years the whole family is in town together. the obamas will stay until sunday to celebrate father's day before the president heads to mexico for the g-20 summit. they have no public events on the agenda while in town but the family may be here for the wedding of laura jarrett...the daughter of top white house adviser valerie jarrett. the high-profile wedding will also need extra security.. which the chicago police department is reportedly providing. the event will take place in hyde park at a jarrett family home. in addition to the first family, several washington insiders are expected to attend. the sun times reports that up to 200 police officers will be securing the perimeter. the officers are coming from several districts, and overtime is not being paid. the sun times also says that the city is not being reimbursed. g-o-p presidential candidate mitt romney pulled off a big night of fundraising in chicago. romney was in town for a fundraiser at the pump room. tickets for the night topped $50,000. in all, he raised $3.3 million for his election bid.

backfiring, as the city faces an increasing murder rate. homicides in chicago are 35% higher this year, than last year. one difference is that the police department no longer uses large "strike force" units to swarm violent areas. superintendant garry mccarthy favors putting more officers in neighborhoods instead. but the chicago tribune reports that some police officers believe the rising murder rate is linked to the change. they say beat officers are being stretched too thin ... and not having a large team to back them up has weakened their response. mccarthy says he's not accepting that as an excuse. some changes are coming to chicago's marijuana law. mayor emanuel says he will support a new ordinance to reduce the penalty for possession of small amounts of marijuana. alderman danny solis is expected to introduce the proposal. it would apply to 15-grams of pot, or less. under the plan, officers could write tickets up to 500-dollars. most people we spoke to support these changes >>there's a lot of violence in the city maybe it's better to focus on something other than

marijuana ... >>fight it's crazy to chase after guys with small amounts of marijuana that's my personal opinion ... >> currently a misdemeanor. it's punishable by a fine and jail time. chicago police are looking for a car involved in a hit-and-run injured in west garfield park thursday evening. a city security camera caught this image of the white buick le sabre as it left the scene near madison and pulaski. witnesses tell police the car had wisconsin plates and was carrying four men or boys. it had damage to the windshield and the passenger-side headlight. the 19-year-old pedestrian was taken to stroger hospital in serious condition. a husband and wife from northlake remain in jail after two of their children were found tied up, blindfolded in a walmart parking lot. adolfo and deborah gomez are charged with cruel or inhumane corporal punishment. they were unable to post their $50 thousand bond. the family's car broke down in lawrence, kansas. so gomez parked in the wal-mart

wgn's gene richardsdean richards has the we can reuse ...eekend reviews.... the original jukebox broadway musical " rock of ages " successfully took a collection

of '80s rock classics on stage and strung together a story of a small-town girl who comes to the big city for fame and fortune turning it into box office gold. it successfully captured the times and the songs with its razor-thin story. however, the movie version that opens this weekend, fails on almost every level. think: def leppard karaoke sung by your parents, in a glee-style, overpolished high school musical. artists like alec baldwin catherine zeta jones russell brand, dancing with the stars' julianne hough and paul giamatti, take on songs that are supposed to be raw and angst- filled, but instead, homogenize them. and the choreography seems more well-suited to a branson missouri salute to rock, rather than what '80s rock really was. and with a story this then the music needs to be right. in this movie it is not. if there are any positives, tom cruise steals the show as an aging axl rose like rocker. it's amazing to see what a real movie star can add to a film. and the short appearance by mary j. blige in the film ... it's amazing to see what a real singer can do with these songs instead of have actors trying to fake it. all " rock of ages " did was want to make me see if my old metallica cassettes still work! it's an empty dean's list grade of c minus. even worse is the latest in a string of adam sandler movies

that almost everyone agrees are awful. yet people flocked to these, like the cineplexes are going out of business!"that's my boy" stars sandler and former snl-er andy samberg, as a long lost father who now tries to reconnect with his grown son who is the product of an affair between sandler's character as a teenager, and his high school teacher. classy, right? the elder trying to reconnect with his son is almost an after-thought in this film, that's overflowing with extremely r-rated situations which i wouldn't have a problem with if only they were funny. i'm not a prude about grown-up comedy but this movie is all shock comedy that wants to be the male version of "bridesmaids", but just winds up feeling sad and desperate. it will probably wind up in my five worst films of 2012, even if it does make $1 billion at the box office.... a dean's list grade of d minus. as always, you can take a look at my past and current movie reviews, along with my a list interviews this week with actors adam sandler and andy samberg about their new movie " that's my boy ". it's all up on my page of the website: wgntv.com/deanslist also you can get my weekly

you wouldn't want your doctor doing your job. so why are you doing his? only your doctor can determine if your persistent heartburn is actually something more serious... like acid reflux disease. over time, stomach acid can damage the liningf your esophagus. for many, prescription nexium not only provides 24-hour heartburn relief but can also help heal acid related erosions in the lining of your esophagus. talk to your doctor about the risk for osteoporosis-related bone fractures and low magnesium levels with long-term use of nexium. possible side effects include headache diarrhea and abdominal pain. other serious stomach conditions may still exist. let your doctor do his job and you do yours. ask if nexium is right for you. if you can't afford your medication, astrazeneca may be able to help.

in the medical watch...childhood obesity could cause problems in the doctor's office...as well as the classroom. researchers tracked more than than 6,000 children from kindergarten through fifth grade. kids who were persistently obese from the beginning of the study scored lower on math tests than those who were not. other factors like race, family income and education may affect kid's weight and academic performance. there may be scientic proof that life is more stressful today...than it was 25 years ago. researchers analyzedata from more than 6,000 people. they found that stress increased 18% for women and 24% for men from 1983 to 2009. the study is the first-ever historical comparison of stress

levels in the u.s. all of the surveys used the perceived stress scale...a measure created at the beginning of the study to measure the degree to which individuals considered a situation stressful. researchers believe the increase could be attributed to added economic and social pressures. lunchbreak is next. we are making some decadant cupcakes with the help of more cupcakes.
