Weather: DEFLATING

25,000 runners brace the chill for Shamrock Shuffle The Shamrock Shuffle could have been called the Shamrock Shiver on Sunday, but raw weather didn't deter more than 25,000 runners from their appointed rounds. For a few elite contenders, the annual 8K run sponsored by Bank of America was a chance to compete and tune up for coming marathons. For most participants, it was a chance to meet personal goals, even if that meant just making it to the beer tent a block past the finish line.

White Sox ace Jake Peavy: 'I don't like the Cubs' White Sox right-hander Jake Peavy wanted to be a Cub. He let the Cubs know that in the winter leading up to the 2009 season. He let the San Diego Padres -- the team he played for at the time -- know that. A little more than a year removed from that drama, Peavy said he can't stand the Cubs.

Dakota Fanning is all grown up in 'The Runaways' Cindy Pearlman: She's a rocker in a skimpy outfit that barely covers what needs to be covered. When she wakes up in the morning, she can't decide if she wants to take an upper or a downer or to make out with a boy or a girl. She hasn't taken a bath in three weeks because she's so strung out. Janis Joplin? No, little Dakota Fanning -- or rather the character she plays in her new musical biopic, "The Runaways."

3-D television hitting area stores, but prices are high Tech enthusiasts are welcoming the latest 3-D televisions -- spurred by the popularity of the hit 3-D movie "Avatar" -- that started hitting stores last week for $2,500 and up at Chicago area retailers. The TVs work by sending electronic signals back and forth with 3-D glasses that are nothing like the color-tinted lens paper versions many remember from the 1950s or the 1970s. These glasses -- which cost $150 a pair from one manufacturer and will be bundled into the total TV price from others -- are equipped with liquid crystal LCD shutters.
