My nominee for this year's Pulitzer Prize for Photography is John White, a photographer for the Chicago Sun-Times. While the rest of the press was staked out in front of Governor Rod Blagojevich's house, White suspected the guy would try to sneak out the back way.
It's taking a chance, because you can't be in both places at one time, but he was right. And White had already decided what angle he wanted to take the shot from.
That yellow sign on the telephone pole says,
WARNING
TARGET: RATS
TARGET: RATS
Sorry I can't make it larger. It's one of thousands of similar signs found in Chicago alleys, as a warning that poison bait has been placed there. You're supposed to keep pets and children away from it. But not governors and punks.

Too big for a rat. Looks like a weasel or a stoat to me.
by the way, that rat sign was torn down the next day
