You don’t understand the power and cost of small, supposedly inconsequential taxes on “little people” in contrast to taxes that hit the “big people” unless and until you total up the cost. Then only blindness hides the truth.

VOTE NO ON ISSUE 3.

There are many reasons why this issue should go down in defeat, as far as I'm concerned, not least being the fact that Cleveland is such a poor city already we don't need more outlets for the poorest to spend all their money on an if/come situation.

Common Dreams - Americans are still debating whether to roll up their sleeves for a swine flu shot, but companies have already figured it out: vaccines are good for business.

A Halo Over Moscow

by Mike Krumboltz

And you thought rainbows were cool. A few days ago, a mysterious cloud shaped like a halo appeared over Moscow, and the buzz has yet to break.

Mayor Frank Jackson answer Pee Dee on criticism of his scholarship program.

Memo to Susan Goldberg, Pee Dee editor: Stop making the news and start reporting it.

 

What do we really know about Dan Gilbert? Not much. But it sounds as if he’s the kind of guy that plays one city off against another for his own benefit.

 The Old South Side Community Coalition will be meeting at the Jefferson Branch Library on Monday, October 19, 2009, at 6:00pm.  Everyone is welcome and we hope that you will come and join us for our open forum.

I went by the Richmond building to see what was happening after Oengus reported about a potential sale of the building to perhaps the All Crane parties.   Behind the Richmond Building is a neighborhood of single family buildings with a few industrials thrown in.  There was some good graffiti, and these chimneys, colored by temperature. 

Just goes to show, it isn't only the flowers who express themselves.

We need other voices engaged here to tell us about this installation. 

Here’s a blog entry that gives some anti-Issue 2 information for your digestion.

 

Ed Hauser is a perfect example of why we need to fund public health care in the US.   Ed volunteered hours, days and months  of his time and energy to promote good public governance in North East Ohio.   But with no "employer", Ed had no health care insurance.

Here are some places where you too can check out the wonderful world of Open Source software. This stuff runs on MS PC's, some on Mac's and most on Linux. Weither you use it on a corporate network, a small business setup, classroom or personal use, you can't go wrong, but you can be mis-informed. And I might add, if you tried this stuff out in the past, Open Source software is being upgraded and updated and improved everyday.

Pilots on Food Stamps
By Michael Moore

We're on the descent from 20,000 feet in the air when the flight attendant leans over the elderly woman next to me and taps me on the shoulder.

"I'm listening to Lady Gaga," I say as I remove just one of the ear buds. I know not this Lady Gaga, but her performance last week on SNL was fascinating.

"The pilots would like to see you in the cockpit when we land," she says with a southern drawl.

Chinese Company Continues to Encircle the World

Phil Brennan

A huge, multibillion-dollar company closely tied to the Chinese army has set up operations in ports all around the world.

Every so often I see this sign driving down Lorain. Usually it mentions that they're looking for a 3rd shift press operator or something...

I don't know who the make gears for, I don't know how good or bad business is, I don't know who runs this place...but man. Is "positively Cleveland" or "the Cleveland Foundation" or a least the city council rep. have a sit-down to see what's up?

Has the owner lost it because the auto industry finally died?

Did he exhaust his options to find alternate revenue since?

If Dan Gilbert had even a smidgen of real interest in Cleveland and its people he would show it by volunteering to pay property taxes on Quicken Arena.
