Autos have, and are, destroying Cleveland. This pedestrian bridge used to join neighborhoods over active rail road tracks.  The bridge is still passable, but the tracks lack activity, so why hike up the stairs?

And the neighborhood now? 

A trip...

 New van sales as an indicator of an improving economy!

Have you ever wondered what happened to the 56 men who signed the Declaration of Independence ?

Five signers were captured by the British as traitors,and tortured before they died.

Twelve had their homes ransacked and burned.

Everything you see has economic connections. 

Look at your husband, he has economic connections, right?  Just kidding.

But when I watched the St Mary's II cement barge, at 21 feet of draft, come into Cleveland last week to blow off at the Essroc facility (north portion of the dock also leased by Kenmore Construction), I thought, $ WOW.

This is the Air Quality monitoring station on Broadway, just South of the Ball Field.

All the air intake instruments which were on the roof of the building have been recently removed.  I suspect the station is non-operational.

Wouldn't it be funny if, during the entire period when Mittal has been idled, this station had no data?

Funny?

Or the plan...

Anyone take offense of this morning’s Plain Dealer editorial cartoon. I did.

Governor Disappointment should get off his ass and start working for the people who put him in the State House.

Max Eternity - Has America prematurely come to the conclusion that because we now have a biracial President, anti-Black bias has been overcome--banished from this nation?  Some may like to think so, and to a limited extent, at least symbolically, that might be true. However there are many indicators that say otherwise, suggesting that a more sanitized version of apartheid has now replaced our defunct Jim Crow laws.

I'm pleased to be able to offer a free pdf of my textbook I'll be using for the course I'll teach at CWRU this fall - EECS 396.

I also have a pdf of the manifesto I wrote - as well.

Enjoy!

I have a hard time understanding how the Greater Cleveland Partnership (GCP) can give $100,000 to get something on the ballot but can’t it support what it wants on the ballot.
