Hugger-Mugger channels have brought to light the possibility that Civic Builders may be in the process of reviving the West 8th (multi unit housing on a postage size lot)  Development with the help of certain community leaders by circumventing the block club process and going straight to the zoning board. 

Of course, we all know this is business at the same old stand in Tremont.

 COME AND MEET ACLU REPRESENTATIVES ANGELA BARSTOW AND LAMA ALWAN FOR "KNOW YOUR RIGHTS" SESSION AT THE OLD SOUTH SIDE COMMUNITY COALITION MEETING ON SEPTEMBER 21, 2009, AT 6:00PM.

Chinese government officials are now attempting to protect themselves by dumping large portions of their dollar denominated reserves for gold and silver.

Former Nazi Hermann Schmitz looked for an alternative to brute force for controlling people and realized that people could be controlled through their food supply.

Bill Patmon slammed Mayor Frank Jackson on his “gift” of $2 million to Jeff Jacobs for a proposed fish tank for his Flats project. It’s a proper slam of the mayor.

Amazing similarity between orange in fiesta ware and orange in zinnia - perfectly the same at the handle.  Fresh flowers cut yesterday from Geauga County, Ohio.  What is this bouquet (minus vase) worth at market?

One day after winning victory by a large margin, Mayor Frank Jackson showed he’s a conventional Cleveland Mayor by offering Jeff Jacobs $2 million gift.

Hello Desmond....

DID you think I only had one Picture???

Ward 14 really makes me sick they all complain about Joe Santiago which has got so much accomplished compaired to the 8 years Cintron was in office. One big example is the houses that have been demolished and someone to inforce City Housing codes. Cintron never once set foot in Housing Court or had someone represent him. He allowed the houses in the ward to become down right discusting. Santiago came into office and worked hard to get 148+ houses demolished that Cintron simply didn't care about.

 It's said that every piece of art tells a story, and Muriel Butkin certainly knew her art.

Now, with an online auction of much of what she and her husband, Noah, had collected, the public will see a greater glimpse of this very private couple's story, through the fine furniture, art and rare decorative objects they accumulated over their lifetimes.

For Mayor Frank Jackson a deep economic recession and an abysmally apathetic public made for a winning combination.

Congratulations to Brian Cummins and Rick Nagin for prevailing in today's primary. I hope you both find the strength to lead and protect the residents of Ward 14 from the predation of developers out to make a buck off of us.

To Nelson Cintron--I express my utmost admiration for your tireless efforts to improve the lives of your friends, your neighbors, and your family who live in Ward 14, and who actually go to the public schools with union teachers in Ward 14. 

Max Eternity - "This Brave Nation" is the newest release by award-winning filmaker Robert Greenwald.  The film, which is actually a collective of short-story interviews, takes a look into the lives of some of the America's most influential contibutors to civic activism on both the local and national levels.  From Pete Seeger to Majora Carter, Van Jones and Carl Pope, this documentary is a must see, and it's free!

Beyond the year 2100 our children and our grandchildren will have to learn to adapt to the global warming situation, if they even hope to survive.

Numerous Science Fiction stories, novels, novellas, and movies have taken place in the "far-off future" where mankind has made our planet difficult or even unfit for humans to live on the surface of the planet. Most portray life below ground, much as life has been portrayed on the asteroid belt, with a rabbit warren of caves and tunnels, hewn out of the native rock.

Today I received a call from someone I do not know informing me that my new name in the community is "Hatemonger."  This individual claimed to be my secret friend who had access to information and communications transpiring among some of those up in arms that I ask for fairness between the business owners and the residents.  I was informed that the dubbing of this title came as a result of my investigating and asking questions on the possible corruption, kickbacks and the favortism being doled out by the leadership in the neighborhood.  

Hard to believe that it was 32 years ago that the first tax abatement for the National City Bank building at Euclid & E. 9th Street became a central issue in the defeat of a mayor. Presently, its new owners are seeking a $1,489,500 deduction in its value for tax purposes.

There are thousands of structures like this in NEO.   We don't even notice them anymore.   This one has a nice slate roof, and oh, did I mention the wrap around porch?. 

Here come's my bus, got to go....to a sustainability lecture...I think the topic is embedded, ah, emedded apathy?  no, that's not right.. .
