Weather: DANK
Beverly Woods Restaurant owner Bill McGann is unsure about what to expect this weekend without the South Side Irish Parade.

Beverly gears up for St. Pat's Day without parade The crowds will likely be smaller, the parades shorter and the bars could be less packed. But businesses and residents -- and police -- in Beverly and Morgan Park still are gearing up for revelers Sunday, even though the South Side Irish St. Patrick's Day Parade has been canceled after three decades of fun.

Illini get down to bid-ness in win over Wisconsin Tired of his team's casual efforts, Illinois coach Bruce Weber amped up practice this week, making the losers run after intense scrimmages. ''That made the point that it's important to play hard,'' center Mike Tisdale said. That helped the Illini make their point to the NCAA tournament selection committee. With their backs to the wall, they defeated Wisconsin 58-54 on Friday in the quarterfinals of the Big Ten tournament.

Muse bombast goes after your heart, not your head It takes a certain outsized sense of self to stand in the spotlight and deliver for 15,000 people, whether one is shredding a guitar solo, swishing a jump shot or giving a speech. But even by the egocentric standards of arena rock, the UK power trio Muse is particularly grandiose. If all that makes Muse sound anachronistic — more likely to have topped the charts when glam- and prog-rock dinosaurs roamed the earth toting triple-LPs than in today's disposable download world — they are.

S. Side science students 'Future City' champs Imagine living in a city powered by geothermal energy from hot springs, where trains run on solar energy and where all of the children own a computer. The city, Tsumefang, is the brainchild of students at the IIT Math and Science Academy/Perspectives Charter school at 3663 S. Wabash, who competed in this year's Chicago Regional National Engineers Week Future City competition. This year's Future City competition had a depressingly prescient assignment for the students: Design an affordable living space for people who have lost their homes because of a disaster or financial emergency.
