Realneo Header Gallery - news isn't always on bottom half of the front page

Submitted by Jeff Buster on Thu, 11/26/2009 - 20:51.

The mast head on the New York Times and the Cleveland Dirty Dealer is the same every day, year in and year out.

Silly.

The most valuable visual real estate on the planet (or in your town) should not just be blank....static or repeditive.

In Realneo the header is never blank, static, or repeditive.  

Rather, the Realneo header strives to create another new thought even before you read the news below.

The Opportunity To Rethink the Energy Question For Cleveland ... the demise of the AMP Ohio coal plant

Submitted by Jon Eckerle on Thu, 11/26/2009 - 19:31.

(See the link below to the story about the cancellation of the AMP Ohio Plant)

Friends,
 
The failure of AMP Ohio plant of which Cleveland was a principle partner is an opportunity to rethink the problem of energy in Cleveland. This was plant that was going to provide base line power to Cleveland Public Power (CPP), and AMP Ohio for the next 50 years. Its cancelation is a reason to celebrate and an opportunity to change the system. CPP is going to need to derive base line power from somewhere.  Can we influence our community to create a sustainable energy strategy that will not only meet our  present power needs, but provide an economic edge in the future. If we are going to have that edge  we need to maximize the assets we have right now. CPP is one of those assets.

 so here's the long story short. They're going to demolish 243 public housing units and replace them with "mixed income" housing, including a paltry 95 public housing units (a net loss of 148 public housing units). Residents are being kicked out beginning this month but demolitin might take up to a year and a half (which means they could sit vacant for up to a year). Residents are being moved to King Kenedy North, Carver Park and Lakeview (all natoriuosly poor public housing areas).

Just Like Bush: Why the mainstream Left and Obama have lost credibility

Submitted by Eternity on Wed, 11/25/2009 - 16:06.

Mother Jones - Liberals have not done enough public wrestling with Massimo Calabresi and Michael Weisskopf's Time article on the ouster of White House counsel Gregory Craig. Perhaps that's because they don't want to deal with the article's troubling implications. As Kevin explains, Craig was "the White House lawyer tasked with dismantling Bush-era interrogation and detention policies.

Why "terrorist" is an inherently racist word

Submitted by Eternity on Wed, 11/25/2009 - 13:40.

Max Eternity - Ever notice that we don't call white people terrorist?  Think about it, whenver a white man goes on a rampage with a gun, we call it "shootings" or something like that.  Yet when an Arab [non-white] does the same exact thing, it gets classified as terrorism.  Which is kinda like how during the New Orleans floods (after Katrina) white people who were struggling to stay alive were said to be "finding food" while black people were called "looters."

Obama Quietly Backs PATRIOT Act Provisions

Submitted by Eternity on Tue, 11/24/2009 - 12:06.

AntiWar - With the health care debate preoccupying the mainstream media, it has gone virtually unreported that the Barack Obama administration is quietly supporting renewal of provisions of the George W. Bush-era USA PATRIOT Act that civil libertarians say infringe on basic freedoms.

 

And it is reportedly doing so over the objections of some prominent Democrats.
