Challenge Cuyahoga is an annual social innovation competition that surfaces and supports citizen-based projects to fix what's wrong and make what's right even better. Competition operations begin in 2012, so you have plenty of time to brainstorm. It's the change you want to see in the world.

also very often we learn and grow more from our socalled adversaries than our friends -

in the military most of us actualy hated our drill sergants etc.- but as they said ' what you learn will help save your life" - and its was-is true -

When will Cuyahoga County Executive FitzGerald move to nullify MEDCON "contract"?

Submitted by Jeff Buster on Tue, 10/18/2011 - 10:18.
Cuyahoga County  is going to be financially drained by the MEDCON just as Harrisburg Pa has been financially drained by a “trash incinerator”.   
 
MEDCON is a morbid PARASITE on Cuyahoga County.   
 
When will County Executive FitzGerald take action to nullify the odious MEDCON “deal” with MMPI?

TREMONT: Who actually paid for it to be all that it is today???? THE POOR.....

Submitted by ANGELnWard14 on Sun, 10/16/2011 - 14:21.

I am much amazed by the transitional phase of Tremont development over the last few years. For the last several decades...Tremont West Development Corporation was much obliged to suck behinds with the City Leadership to have millions of dollars in HUD FUNDING ALLOCATIONS STEERED into this very "needy" community. As a result; the low income citizens used as quotas to ascertain countless funds; were STEERED OUT of this community as it outgrew its britches!

Constitutional Amendment to Close D.C. - Terminate our legislators’ OCCUPATION OF Washington, D.C.!

Submitted by Jeff Buster on Sun, 10/16/2011 - 10:13.

When NYC Mayor Bloomberg indicated that the Occupy Wall Street petitioning in Zuccotti Park needed to be closed down for pressure washing and sanitizing, he got me thinking.....

The operation of our federal government out of one location, Washington D.C., plays directly into the hands of corporate “citizens” and operates directly  against the interests of citizen citizens.
