| Visitor center repairs not costly, but Shaw wants out
Foursquare Properties, the company developing the Cabela's-anchored shopping center next door, appears to be content with the 70 acres it already has. At least for now.The Black Hills, Badlands & Lakes Association operates the VIC and houses its offices inside the building. Under the arrangement, BHB&L pays no rent but it does pay the operating and maintenance expenses of the building. Profits from a small gift shop inside the VIC cover most of those costs.If the visitor center moves inside Cabela's, BHB&L would probably operate it. However, the tourism group would likely have to find a new place for its offices.Brian Boyer, chairman of the BHB&L, said the group is waiting to see what kind of offer Cabela's will make."We're just waiting to see. We haven't seen any formalized agreements, so we're just kind of on hold," Boyer said.
'I'm happy because I'm here'
"I'm happy because I'm here. I want to be around," he said in an interview with The News-Gazette, his first time to speak publicly about his case. 'Worst mistake' Aguas' unintentional thrusting into the limelight as a crime victim started about 6 p.m. Sept. 10, 2006, when he stepped outside his office for a smoke. Aguas and his brother Ramiro, two of eight children raised on a farm in central Mexico, are the primary owners of the LaBamba restaurant chain. Antonio and Ramiro, who is 14 months older, were living and working in the Chicago area in the 1980s when Ramiro was dating a woman who attended the University of Illinois. Noticing then the dearth of good Mexican restaurants in Champaign and Urbana, the brothers set aside their regular paychecks as welders to open their own restaurant in March 1988 at Fifth and Green streets in Champaign.

Friedlander Joins Pluto Nash
I have a love/hate relationship with Hollywood Video. A few years ago they charged me obscene amounts of money for mistakenly breaking the horrid George Romero directed disaster Monkey Shines. Sure, I may have thrown the movie against a wall, but it was two hours of a quadriplegic and a damn dirty ape. It was really the only sensible reaction. Unfortunately, I cant get myself to completely loathe the rental chain because they have the greatest bargain in the history of shopping. 4 movies for 20 dollars! Thats like finding a dollar wrapped in five dollar bills.
It was during one of my many browsing adventures through Hollywood Video that I sleuthed my way into finding American Splendor. I may not have seen it, but it was only 5 dollars. 5 dollars! I loose that much in change monthly.
