Does anyone have recommendations for some chalk that resists water very well?

I'd love any recommendations of brands, specific chemicals or properties to look for, or maybe questions that I would need to answer about the environment.

I'm planning to use my chalk on my asphalt driveway.

"Many people are saying" that you should memorize or note down a lawyer's phone number if you attend a protest and think things might go wrong. I feel like this could maybe happen at the Chicago DNC this year.

Do you have any recommendations for lawyers or groups in the Chicago area that would be good at this sort of thing and who would take a cold call?

I can afford it so I probably wouldn't qualify for legal aid. But I'm not really sure how it works. I'd also be interested in legal aid groups in case other want advice.

I'm trying to get better at recycling, mostly by finding places to bring my stuff. Do I have this right? This is mostly just based on searching earth911, but I'm not sure they are 100% up-to-date.
