Father & son discover couple making love in stall on opening day

As they waited, Nemeth said, he noticed noises coming from the last stall. A man's legs — clad in blue jeans and sneakers — were sticking out from under the stall door.

Union officials have questioned Ebere Ozonwu's story, producing a photo of the folding stroller and saying it did not appear to have sustained the kind of damage that would result from smashing into a metal barrier at the end of the Morse station platform. But Chicago Police Lt. Denis Walsh said the traces of paint found on the stroller seem to have been from the guardrail. A CTA spokeswoman confirmed fresh markings on the guard rail that match those on the stroller, but said the transit agency's review continues.

The Ledge: the new addition to the Sears Tower

47821735
I'm standing on The Ledge, the four new enclosed glass boxes that jut about four feet from the 103rd floor of the Sears Tower. The latest addition to the 110-story high-rise opens Thursday. From the glass boxes, visitors get a nearly panoramic view, from Wacker Drive below and up to 50 miles in three directions on a clear day. The boxes can hold at least 5 tons each, about the weight of an elephant, and they can retract into the building when the windows get washed.
