The details of new ChicagoBears guard Germain Ifedi have been made public, and once again Ryan Pace looks like a wise man.
When it was announced that the Chicago Bears signed veteran offensive lineman Germain Ifedi earlier in free agency, the move was met by several opinions. As with any signing, there were positive and negative reactions.
However, the fact that Ifedi signed just a 1-year deal meant that this was likely going to be a low-risk move by general manager Ryan Pace.
One thing was abundantly clear heading into the offseason, and it was that Pace had to address the line. He had to add competition, and with Ifedi, he did that. Up until now, though, we didn’t know just how serious of a signing this would be.
Fast forward to Saturday, and the contract details have become official. In short, Pace worked out a strong contract, just like the restructure he did with Nick Foles.
Germain Ifedi’s one-year deal with the Bears if for the veteran salary benefit: $137,500 to sign, a $910,000 base salary with a cap number of $887,500. A wise value add for the Bears for a 25-year old that has started 60 games already.
Alas, we can see that this move is not going to cost the Bears a whole lot after all. Ifedi is getting a veteran minimum salary for the 2020 season, and this after starting a whopping 60 games with the Seattle Seahawks.
Ifedi is still just 25 years old, and while he has had his fair share of penalties over his four years in the league, he still brings veteran competition. If he ends up winning the starting job at guard, then Pace will have spent less than $1 million to land that starter.

If the Bears draft a guard who ends up filling that role, so be it. But, regardless, Ifedi’s contract is nothing to worry about. It’s not going to strap the team for cash in any way, and they can continue to clear space with extensions or restructures down the line, if need be.
I believe the Bears will end up drafting a guard at some point, which will be great for Ifedi. It will create a much-needed competition, just like the Bears are planning to do at quarterback. This is how you fill holes when you’re low on draft capital. You do what you can, with what you have, all while creating competition.
Sure, Pace could have gone out and tried to land a top-tier free agent. However, Joe Thuney, Andrus Peat and Brandon Scherff stayed on their respective teams, depleting the guard market. Pace knew his Plan B was a low-cost option like Ifedi, plus competition through the draft or fellow free agents.
It isn’t every move that causes us to praise him (far from it, in fact), but the Ifedi deal, accompanied by the Foles restructure, certainly justifies a compliment. Well done, Pace.
The Chicago Cubs are in a strange situation with a lot of their great players. Which of them will stay and which will go?
The Chicago Cubs are in a weird situation. They are a team that is now four seasons removed from that 2016 team that won the World Series. A lot of their core is still there but the bottom of the depth has fallen out. They also replaced Joe Maddon with David Ross as their manager. It could be the start of a new look to some degree on the North Side in short order.
The Chicago Cubs have some contract issues on the rise. They won in 2016 but were a bit disappointing in the years that followed. It really was peak disappointment when they didn’t even qualify for the National League Wild Card Game in 2019. That made everyone wonder what is wrong and it was also clear that they were going to make some changes soon.
So that is where those contract issues come into play. The Cubs have some really good players that need new deals that are going to cost a fair amount of money. It is fair to wonder if Theo Epstein and Jed Hoyer are going to be willing to shell out the cash and potentially handcuff their team with big contracts with no-trade clauses.
The only guy out of them all that they might roll the dice on is Javier Baez. He is not only one of the best players on the Cubs but he is one of the best players in the world. He might be the one guy that the Cubs take their chances with on a lucrative deal of that magnitude. With that said, these three players might get traded as a result of these issues:

A bomber of Begyle Brewing’s “Dr. Dreidel’s Imperial Chanukah Porter, from 2015.” I wanted something big enough to stand up to the tough conversation that lay ahead, but approachable enough for anyone to drink, especially after this challenging and enlightening read.
Begyle’s barrel-aged collaboration with, brewer and chef, Cleetus Freidman was just what the doctor ordered. Silky, rich, boozy, but just the right amount of all three. Great lacing on the glass, light smoke on the nose, and smooth sailing on the palette.
I love that porters aren’t as viscous as stouts. Brewers don’t seem to barrel them as much, so when they do, I’m buying and trying. This one was aged for nearly five years, and on this night, it’s drinking well.
Dr. Dreidel’s Imperial Chanukah Porter, from 2015, definitely helpedcut the deep conversation, and so did the monster cookies that Bud made. They might be the best cookies I’ve ever had? Wait a second, didn’t I give those up for lent?
Man, if only I was there when they had this variant night at Fountainhead, 5 years ago! Ancho Chili? I need a time machine.
I should have started earlier today. I’m very tired now. My dog had her Vet visit and had blood drawn and I won’t know for a week what the results are. So, frustrating.
So, work was very busy. The store was not very busy but more people have called out, “self-quarantining” it’s called. Can’t blame people in a way, although, as I have said, if I decide to stay home for 1 week or 2 weeks, to avoid contact, even though I feel well, then others have to do my job. Sure, there is a conflict. And evidently the Pres. Said that people should wear face-coverings while out, or working I presume, but I would like to know where the hell they are? Sorry, I said I am tired. The two guys I sometimes worked with unloading trucks in the evening, I believe they both quit. I worked with 2 college kids and an assistant manager tonight. I don’t have to, but it would be like just leaving them in the lurch. Not right; to me anyway.
Well, I am really beat. I will be ok. I just need sleep. I am not sure why I keep writing this but I just do. It is a really unusual time. Hang in there everyone.

Just a word about my blog, “Docrambo”. It sounds weird to me and when I told a friend in one of the volunteer organizations in which I participate, she gave me a gentle smile. I think it meant “sounds funny but I think you are a nice person anyway.” It is ok. The name was a nickname I acquired while working at the Great Lakes Naval Base in North Chicago, IL. A navy hospital corpsman worked with me in the Pediatric Clinic. He was a bodybuilder and saw that I had some small hand-weights under my desk, which I used at lunch time to keep myself toned. I am anything but a Rambo-type of a guy, but we joked about it. He gave me the nickname.
I have been writing things since I was 15 years-old. I am a retired pediatrician. These are my ideas, experiences and feelings from all those years. They are about being a pediatrician, a doctor, and also about being a father, a spouse, and just a human being.
In my last two posts, the focus was on activities to do with your youngster(s) while working at home. I am going to write more on that topic in future posts.
In response to the prior two posts, someone wanted to know my favorite activity with toddlers. The activity I have in mind happens during downtime–before or after worktime.
So, I’m going to take a break from writing about working from home and explore this activity with you, which is taking a walk. This will still be relevant to those of you who are working at home with toddlers, as it becomes especially important to spend your time with them when wisely when you’re not working. You will benefit as much as your child.
Since the weather is getting nicer and daylight savings is in effect; let’s do it. Forget about TV and videos and get outside, you both deserve it.
You will enjoy the fresh air and you will be amazed to discover all the learning that happens when a toddler takes a walk.
Walking for an Adult is About the Goal
Most adults, including myself, tend to see walks as goal-oriented activities. We are focused on the end. Typically, there are two reasons we take walks.
To get to our destination. (And, the sooner we get to the end, the better.)
To exercise. (And, the faster the walk, the better.)
This is NOT true for children. Let’s go on a journey with the toddlers.
For a Child, Walking is About the Journey
Unlike adults, children have a huge list of reasons for taking a walk. (Even though they can’t verbalize them, yet.)
When a child takes a walk, they see the journey as important. If we follow the child’s lead, we will find that it’s the experiences along the way that interests them. Children are curious about their world. They seek to discover, explore, create, problem-solve, and understand. Getting to the end is our adult agenda. The young child is ready to learn along the way.
What a Toddler Sees and Its Value
Here are just five possible examples of what a toddler may ponder, discover, or explore during the walk:
She may see some grass and wonder what it might feel like if she slides the tip of the blade across her arm, her leg or her cheek. All the while, she is learning all sorts of information and new skills—for example, how to categorize similarities and differences.
Or, perhaps, curious about that blade of grass, she may crumble it tightly in her fist. Wow—look at her, only a toddler, yet already beginning to build an understanding of cause and effect.
Perhaps, she hears a noise. She may keep turning her body to find the source. (Please, don’t interrupt her. As adults, we are often interrupters.) If the adult is quiet enough, she may hear an even quieter sound—perhaps a neighbor’s chimes—and challenge herself to discover the direction it is coming from. She is already refining her observation skills.
She may see a small hole in the dirt and wants to know how to make it bigger. She may try her hands, but finding they don’t do the job as well as she wants, she may look and look and look for a solution. You may see she is frustrated. WAIT, she’s ok, she’ll find what she wants. Finally – aha! After maybe 5 minutes she finds a small branch near the tree to dig, dig and dig. Look at her, testing her problem-solving abilities! She did it all by herself. There is nothing that feels quite as good as being able to figure something out by yourself. INDEPENDENCE is what healthy toddlers seek.
Maybe, there is that large tree in the front yard. Guess what? Your toddler has been intrigued by that tree every time you pass it. Today she is going to get to EXPLORE it. This walk (journey) offers a great opportunity to do this. What does the bark feel like? How does it feel to sit under it or to lay under it? She has so many ways to challenge herself with that tree, so many possibilities that we, as adults, would have missed. For I, her mom, thought it was just a tree to rush by to get to the mailbox. She, my child, knew to stop and savor it.
Conclusion
Today, during these crazy times, I hope you can take a stroll around where you live. Both the front and back yards work. You don’t need much space. If front and back yards are not good options for you, find a place that is as private as possible to explore. Of course, if you must go to a more public place, please wash hands before and after the walk, be cautious of face touching, and maintain sufficient social distancing from others.

As you know, all live, attendable events have been cancelled for the foreseeable future. While you can’t go out to attend a music event, the events can come to you. Many performers are streaming concerts online. Unfortunately, I don’t find out about most of them until too late to include in the schedule article, if at all. You’ll just have to monitor your emails, if you are on their lists, and Facebook postings.
Here’s what we do have:
Tuesday, April 7.
Songs for Easter on Folk Festival with Lilli Kuzma, 90.9 FM, or www.wdcb.org. 8 PM.
Wednesday, April 8.
Happy stay-at-home Passover Seder. I hope the angel of covid 19 passes over your house. If Aliyahu Hanovi comes to your door, make sure he washes his hands and wears a mask.
Here’s an idea: Hide the Easter eggs by the textbooks that your kids were supposed to be studying while cooped up at home. They will never find them there.
As we have little to offer in the way of events to attend, these schedule articles may go away for a while. We’ll see. However, I’ve got a plethora (or two plethori) of concert photos in my phone, and because I am stuck at home like the rest of you, I may post pictures or slide shows of concerts from the last year or two. That’s after I finish cleaning out my home office, which is in week two of the project, clean out the garage, patch up the garage ceiling, etc, etc. In the mean time, stay safe at home, and take 10 minutes to fill out your census form online.
Gary Tuber became interested in folk music back in the 60-‘s, when his older brother introduced him to the Limeliters, Gibson and Camp, Phil Ochs, Tom Paxton, etc, etc. Tuber produced the popular “Second Sunday” concert series in Chicago in 2007, and wrote a column on folk music in Chicago on examiner.com for six years. Tuber is delighted to bring his blog to Chicagonow.
Tough times make opportunities to step up. So some thumbs up are in order.
Thumbs Up: Political Showcase Division
Has there ever been a more Laurel and Hardyesque appearing duo than JB Pritzker and Lori Lightfoot? The rotund Governor and the tiny dynamo of a Mayor talk sense while neither downplaying the severity of the state’s and city’s situation or pushing us to panic. We may not need all those beds at McCormick Place now, we may wish it was filled with conventioneers instead of the Army Corps of Engineers, but there is some comfort in knowing the City that Works still works, and the state is right behind. Keep up the good work Governor, and we may forgive you for those ripped out toilets at the mansion.
Thumbs Up: Product Placement Divison
Remember our missing puzzle piece? The puzzle is a product of Ravensburger, a German company with a customer service division in New Jersey. We emailed them about our 99.9% puzzle, and a day later received a pleasant response from Asley, a customer service rep. We are being offered a choice of another copy of the same puzzle (no guarantee it won’t have the same problem, she says) or a brand new puzzle of our choosing. All we have to do is mail in the barcode from the box with the defective puzzle and the name of any puzzle we would like in replacement. Our “code” is in the mail and while we know that puzzles are in a tight supply right now we look forward to one day receiving 1000 pieces of “Disney Vintage Posters” or “The Beatles: Albums.”
Thumbs Up: Travel Division
Isn’t it ironic? Last fall Barb and I booked a tour of China and Hong Kong for this May. At the time, my main concern was the student demonstrations in Hong Kong. We knew by February that we would not be making our trek around the world but wanted to see how our travel partners would handle the situation. The good guys? United Airlines sent an email yesterday, giving me the option of changing my flight or canceling at no cost. The United website couldn’t handle the cancellation, but a call to customer service (minimal on-hold time) resolved the situation. No fees, no penalties, no remorse. Sometimes I’m glad United is our Hometown Airline.
Our other travel partner, tour originator Abercrombie & Kent, we are not so happy with. Even though the tour is canceled, they refuse to refund our deposit. Credit towards a future trip in the next year just isn’t the same as having that money in our pockets. Bad PR for them and I wonder how many travel companies will survive. At least we were not on a cruise. Those poor people…
Thumbs Up: Internet Division
I’m not plugging any particular spot here. Just a thumbs up to the miracle of connectiveness. Through the wonders of technology, Barb can play Mahjong with her friends and have her book clubs, I can have virtual laboratory meetings and contribute answers to my team on Remote Pub Trivia Night (Weezer, Baja Men, and Brooke Shields were my winners this week,) and the family can anticipate our interactive virtual Seder next week. It’s not quite being there–but it is still a blessing.

As far as I know in the history of the world nobody has ever died because they ran out of TOILET PAPER. Imagine a few short months ago somebody writing a column on the front page of the NY Times, (that “Great Lady”) about Toilet Paper, wow. Thanks to Kate Murphy for at least trying to come to grips with the hoarders of the world of Toilet Paper. No doubt the Coronavirus Pandemic is having a universal effect the world over on people’s basic health and financial situations. However, another complete surprise has the world’s anthropological behaviorist salivating and that is the universal panic buying of toilet paper which has spread around the world as rapidly as the virus itself.
Even though there have not been any serious disruptions in the supply (mostly a surprise) it has been very difficult to find on store shelves. We have all seen it for ourselves stacks and stacks of toilet paper piled high on those carts, sometimes two carts. I enclosed the photo below for those who had to leave Mt. Everest and are just now reaching civilization. In most stores, the food supplies, for the most part, are readily available, but boy! try finding something to wipe yourself once the food is fully digested. This mysterious phenomenon is even more baffling when one considers that COVID-19 symptoms are primarily respiratory not gastrointestinal.
I guess the world’s fascination with TP goes back to 1891 when most Toilet Paper historians ( and believe me there are plenty now) credit Seth Wheeler who received a patent on rolled and perforated toilet paper. Above is the original drawing of his invention presented to the patent office. As one can clearly see the flap comes over the top and down the front thus leaving no doubt how the roll was intended to be loaded. I have actually heard people discussing which is the proper way, I would estimate on more than 50 occasions. Case closed, Seth showed the way.
Before toilet paper was invented by Mr. Wheeler, or readily available, people used seashells, leaves, corn cobs, animal pelts and I’m sure several other devices. Indeed every once in a while the question comes up, what do combat troops who are out in the bush and away from any type of ablutions use when it comes to mother nature? One thing I will tell you, we did not carry rolls of toilet paper to go along with 55 pounds of weapons, ammunition, food, and a variety of other vital supplies. TP was not a priority, to say the least. It was one of the above. Our NY Times author Kate Murphy goes even deeper in her story and reports the ancient Greeks and Romans (who developed a great habit of recording everyday life) used small ceramic disks and also sponges impaled on the end of sticks which were then plunged into vinegar or salt water for the next persons use.
As we can see from Seth Wheelers original diagram, manufactures might have added dyes, print’s, perfumes, and soothing aloes, but TP has pretty much remained the same for 129 years and as we can see from recent events probably won’t be going away anytime soon. Unless of course, we count the introduction of WET WIPES which were originally intended for infants which are now marketed aggressively to adults. Wet Wipe sales have soared to $1.1 billion annually, worldwide, up 35% from 5 years ago. Imagine a squad of Marines carrying a pack of DUDE WIPES along with their weapons and ammunition.
Kate Murphy has reported that these wipes which are heavily advertised as FLUSHABLE (see above photo) have begun to coalesce with grease in many city’s sewer systems to form blockages as big as airliners. Wouldn’t it be interesting to find out how many Lobbyists are greasing our elected politicians on behalf of the Wet Wipe industry? Screw city’s sewer systems, probably until we are all wadding ankle deep in our own crap will someone catch on. Most experts agree that toilet paper is less sanitary than water. Bidet’s or toilet attachments such as Washlets or Tushy’s are the way to go according to experts. However, even in France where bidets were in abundance are no longer installing them due to space and cost. So Tushy and Washlets may very well be the future.
On a personal note, I remember back in 2005 the Chicago White Sox had a Japanese second baseman by the name of Tadahito Iguchi who was a Tokyo resident. When not traveling with the White Sox team. He loved the City of Chicago and everything about it, except (you guessed it) his custom toilet that he left behind in Tokyo. (SEE ABOVE PHOTO) He missed it so much he had it shipped to Chicago and then all was right in the world. Indeed the Japanese have cornered the market with their toilets, heated seats and temperature-controlled water, and other instruments that make going to the toilet equal to a nice hot shower. Who knows maybe someday in America there won’t be any paper or flushable wipes to hoard. Nah! I guess I’m dreaming. Please stay safe.

The two Michelin-starred Chicago restaurant Acadia, along with many other restaurants and bars closed due to the Coronavirus, have, by necessity, found creative ways to stay in business and help feed those sheltering in place.
The closures of restaurants across America has left many chefs and farmers with food and produce piling up with no where to go.
The expression ‘desperate times call for desperate measures’ coined by the ancient Greek physician, Hippocrates in 400 B.C. fits today’s world in ways we couldn’t have imagined several weeks ago.
Acadia’s Open-air market
Ryan McCaskey, chef and owner of Chicago’s Acadia, has instituted some novels ways to help both industry employees and people in need.
McCaskey has turned the parking lot behind Acadia (1639 S. Wabash Ave.) into a free, open-air market on Saturdays during the pandemic.
He has distributed food from the restaurant (along with donated food from suppliers and local businesses) that would otherwise have spoiled–creating a win-win for all.
The market, open from 1:00pm. to 3pm. on Saturdays (free for industry employees), in past weeks has offered seafood, including shrimp, cod and 700 oyster, bratwurst, pork chops and a heaping supply of oranges.
“We were busting at the seams with food,” Mr. McCaskey said. He said items available this Saturday will range from caviar to toilet paper. There will be proteins, canned goods, dry goods, dairy, produce, etc. We will supply some bags, delis, containers, but we encourage people to bring something they can use to transport goods back home. He also asks that you take what you need but be considerate of others and leave goods for the next person.
Acadiais also offering curbside pickup. Acadia’s bar offers Chef Ryan McCaskey’s Bar Snacks which consisted of small bites, showcasing some of Acadia’s greatest hits in just a mouthful at a fraction of the price. Curbside pick up orders can be placed through contacting the restaurant directly at (312) 360-9500.
