		<description><![CDATA[Councilman Prigge (and perhaps others on the Elgin, Illinois City Council) must be thinking &#8220;Third time&#8217;s a charm&#8221; after the Daily Herald reported in an article yesterday that Elgin Mayor Ed Schock fought off a &#8220;pit bull&#8221; &#8220;attack&#8221; Thursday evening.  I won&#8217;t include excerpts from the article, because really, I think Elgin residents have learned [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The latest from Elgin2030. Tony is so right that the media writes what it&#8217;s told to write.  Some of the articles coming out about the Festival Park incident sound like press releases instead of investigative reporting.  Still, it is a positive that the council refused to pursue BSL.  I&#8217;m sorry to say, however, that we [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Elgin, Illinois, City Council members this week discussed what to do after an incident in which a 9-year-old boy was apparently pinched by one of two &#8220;pit bulls&#8221; a week ago today in Elgin&#8217;s Festival Park.  I say &#8220;pinched&#8221; because that&#8217;s what the Chicago Tribune called it.  Interesting that this incident went from an &#8220;attack,&#8221; [...]]]></description>
