The state of Illinois, according to search engines’ autocomplete feature: “bankrupt.” Ouch.
Other states didn’t fare too well either, including our neighbor Iowa (“too white”), Missouri (“the worst state”) and Florida (“crazy”). Read more here.

A horse and rider glide through the forest after clearing a jump during fox hunting 
This sporting tradition dates back to 18th-century England, but Wayne, located about 40 miles west of Chicago, is keeping it alive.  (Don’t worry, animal lovers. They aren’t hunting an actual fox. Two riders lay down the scent by squirting fox urine from a squeeze bottle.)
