Chicago Transit

There are a lot of bands doing a tribute to the band Chicago, but back in the early 90’s, when Powerhouse decided to put together their Chicago Transit tribute act, they were the first in the world to do so. And they remain today as THE FIRST AND LONGEST RUNNING CHICAGO TRIBUTE BAND IN THE WORLD and the only one to carry five lead vocalists, just as the band Chicago does. The bands' 5 lead singers, the 3-piece horn section and the 5 piece rhythm section, made this show a natural for the band, even getting credit from the band Chicago themselves, back in the 90’s. In twenty-five years, the band, based in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada has performed their show at Festivals, Theatres, Casinos and various other venues from as far east as the Gatineau Hills in Quebec, south to Florida, USA and the US Midwest – including Chicago, Illinois, itself. The band, with its three piece horn section, five piece rhythm section and five lead vocalists is able to cover all the Chicago material from the early horn-dominant classics like ‘Make Me Smile’, ’25 or 6 to 4’ and ‘Saturday in the Park’ to the later, softer, keyboard-oriented ballads like ‘If You Leave Me Now’. If you like Chicago, you’ll love Chicago Transit!

General Tim Haugh

Defending the Digital Frontier: Understanding Today’s Cyber Risks and Tomorrow’s Solutions

Cybersecurity has emerged as one of the defining challenges of the modern era, shaping national security, economic stability, and personal trust in an increasingly digital world. As artificial intelligence rapidly accelerates both defensive capabilities and malicious activity, the stakes have never been higher.

In this timely program, Gen. Tim Haugh, former Director of the National Security Agency and Commander of U.S. Cyber Command, offers a clear-eyed assessment of today’s evolving cybersecurity landscape. Drawing on decades of leadership at the highest levels of U.S. cyber and intelligence operations, General Haugh brings a rare, insider perspective on how adversaries operate, how threats are changing, and what lies ahead.

Cyber risks now extend far beyond government systems. From critical infrastructure and corporate networks to personal data and public trust, vulnerabilities touch nearly every aspect of modern life. In this conversation, General Haugh will break down how artificial intelligence is reshaping cyberspace, enabling both more sophisticated attacks and stronger defenses. He will examine the behavior of state and non-state actors, the strategic and policy shifts shaping cyber defense, and what organizations and individuals should understand about protecting networks, data, and reputations.

This discussion will move beyond technical jargon to focus on real-world implications and practical approaches to risk management. Together, they will explore what preparedness looks like in an era of constant digital change and what lessons can be drawn from recent cyber conflicts and policy decisions.

Haugh is a retired U.S. Air Force four-star general who led cyber and intelligence operations across the full spectrum of national defense. Over a distinguished career spanning more than three decades, he served as Commander of U.S. Cyber Command, Director of the National Security Agency, and Chief of the Central Security Service. Widely respected for his expertise in cyber strategy and intelligence integration, General Haugh continues to shape public understanding of how to defend the digital frontier in an AI-driven world.
