I am an American Soldier. I am a Warrior and a member of a team. I serve the people of the United States and live the Army Values.

Tonight on WVIZ and Monday Night on WEAO/WNEO Kent see Jerome Robbins on American Masters

Balanchine pales in comparison to this guy who shaped the face of dance in America more than anyone.  Here's his choreography that you're sure to know - Dance at the Gym from Westside Story - You'll also remember "the sharks and the jets - which features a young Eliot Feld.

While the Offshore Wind Energy “Task Force” [headed by Cuyahoga County Prosecutor William (Bill) Mason and partially funded (and more than partially focused) by the Cleveland Foundation which is headed by alternative energy enthusiast Ronn Richard] has been measuring the ice thickness on Lake Erie off of Cleveland, Ohio - a brand new third generation of turbine blades is being installed in wind farms in California. 

During the first anti-trust trial between the city of Cleveland and the Cleveland Electric Illuminating Co. (CEI), I walked up to the company’s former chairman Elmer Lindseth. He had been attending the trial as a spectator. I asked the 78-year old retired executive if he ever had expected to see the day that the corporate leaders of CEI would ever be brought into a court of law by the city. He hesitated to answer. I asked him if maybe he didn’t want to respond. He smiled and said, “The times are different and things change.” Things do change.

CLEVELAND -- Extra police patrols are on duty on a Cleveland street after a fourth family received an ugly racial threat in the mail.

Last week I attended the World Ag Expo held in Tulare, California.   I make it a point to attend exhibitions which challenge my legacy mind.   Although I grew up on a farm,  much has changed with the advent of Cesar Chavez and digital equipment engineering and GIS farming.

So I thought it would be an eye opener to visit the Ag Expo with my brother to learn more about modern agricultural equipment.

Ed was as furious as I can ever remember seeing him, as he shouted "the process is broken".

Ed was so right.

Just what I feared.

If the Cleveland Mall site is chosen for the Medical Mart & Convention Center we could expect a raid on the historic Cleveland School headquarter building on E. 6th, across from the present convention center. It sits on valuable land next to the mall underground parking facility in front of the Marriott Hotel.

The time for hibernation.  But the time for thoughts and plans to bloom.  I am dreaming about my own garden, and dreaming about a really fun market season.

Rarely does one find an artist who is as comfortable with a span of media and substrates, ranging from glass to light to ceramic to electronic ink and virtual illustrations.

With the looting of billions, no trillions of dollars from the U. S. Treasury for incompetent bankers, automakers and others the elite are turning to the only reservoir of more trillions to steal. Who better than William Greider to sound the alarm, as he does so well in The Nation this week.

Some added thoughts this morning about the Medical Mart nonsense.

I go back to original my thoughts about the Medical Mart and Convention Center. The splashy presentations by Christopher Kennedy and his MMPI gang didn’t change a thing.

The deal stinks.

On Thursday we learned how deep Mayor Frank Jackson's campaign pockets are heading into a re-election cycle.

There's a name missing in the wikipedia's entry "muckraker" and it's Roldo Bartimole. In this 1996 article from his (now discontinued) Point of View (see below), he lays out how our local fishwrap, the Pee Dee, as Roldo dubs it, serves up bread and circuses while the elected and their business cronies fleece the public. It's the basic sleight of hand that our lofty elected pull on us. Not much has changed more than a decade later.
