It’s the season of giving and some gifts you can’t get at any store. What one woman got in return may have saved her life. Thanks ⁦@UChicagoMed⁩ for sharing an incredible story. https://t.co/Ybdm63a8lm

The sounds of Old Mexico. This #HispanicHeritageMonth2024 we learned about traditional Mexican folk music and the Chicago band that revived it and made it popular. #mexico #music #chicago #folk

This story is about thinking differently. The School of the Art Institute of Chicago offers a class using scents as the medium. @cbschicago⁩ ⁦@saic_news⁩ #artschool #art #chicago https://t.co/jslW3K8kGZ

I love doing stories with non-profits. They always seem to find simple, elegant solutions for people. The issue here is how to get groceries to people in need who can’t get to a food pantry. Solution: use DoorDash. ⁦@ILfoodbank⁩ https://t.co/D1Pu9pdphY

See, artificial intelligence doesn't have to be scary, it can even save your life. Doctors at Chicago's Rush are using it to help doctors spot polyps and pre-cancerous cells in your colon. #colonoscopy #ai #artificialintelligence #chicago #medicine #cancer

They met as restaurant employees and couldn’t find the kind of food they wanted to eat, so they made it themselves. The result is a restaurant with four locations and counting. #chicago #food #restaurants ⁦@chifoodath⁩ ⁦@chicagofoodies⁩ https://t.co/1xVvuHk9Nn

I absolutely love doing stories with people like this. Giving is so obvious to them. #baking #bakers #cake #cakes ⁦@Cake4Kids⁩ https://t.co/PvOj0lmVsJ

I’m a sucker for anything related to history, so when I heard there was an artifact called the “fire blob” I was hooked. This is the story we put together. ⁦@JimWilliamsCBS2⁩ ⁦@AdamHarrington9⁩ #chicago #history ⁦@ChicagoMuseum⁩ https://t.co/PlzBNVbUlL

Fascinating new perspective on artificial intelligence, studying it through the lens of the humanities. That’s exactly what Lake Forest College is doing thanks to a new grant. #artificialintelligence #lakeforestcollege #liberalarts #humanities https://t.co/BzA1gELWfd

@ZaldyTV Hey did you friend shoot this video? Can CBS 2 Chicago have permission to use on all platforms? Thank you.

[Zak Spector @ZakSpector]

@FFB_Fanatics What's the source of this video? Who shot it?

[Zak Spector @ZakSpector]

@joshuagates Check it out:

They just arrested someone for the theft of the Ruby Slippers from the Minnesota museum! I remember watching your investigation. Maybe a follow-up is in order.

[Zak Spector @ZakSpector]

So much kindness! Students and families at Jewish Family Experience assemble care packages for people people at @Sharsheret, which helps people with breast cancer. It was Chesed (acts of kindness) day, and there was so much chesed to go around! @NCSY

That's a Buff!

DE Terrance Lang, on his 5th head coach at Colorado (including interim): "It's been a wild journey. But at this point, I'm grateful for every experience. I was able to learn something from each experience, so I try to turn it into a positive and just learn from it." #cubuffs

[Zak Spector @ZakSpector]

@BrianHowell33 In a world where Notre Dame's coach can be stolen, the whole concept of worrying about a coach leaving is obsolete. Every coach everywhere can leave. Don't even think about it.

[Zak Spector @ZakSpector]

Conversely, Karl Dorrell is now available for the Nebraska opening. I want KD to get a new job immediately, to reduce our buyout.

[Zephier @OglalaBuff]

@BrianHowell33 Scott Frost. We just gotta get him off the booze and onto the flower medicine. I am joking but almost serious…lol

[Zak Spector @ZakSpector]

I'm guessing this has something to do with the @HoustonTexans

[Zak Spector @ZakSpector]

@BrianHowell33 ok, I'm turning on notifications for you, for when you break some news....perhaps today?

[Zak Spector @ZakSpector]

and... that's exactly why I'm refreshing my twitter feed right now.
