To be fair Miami has been sprawling for several decades, with entire academic programs (business, engineering) moving out of the rectangle of Patterson, High, Campus, and Spring, and the buildup of dorms on Western Campus. This and the Student Center are just about the first “infill” that’s happened in a long while. That being said for this purpose I still prefer the Millett parking lot, seems an obvious answer but I’m sure they were worried about where people would park during the years of construction. I was a fellow east quad guy and cook field will be missed. It was also basically my first ever sight of the campus coming in from 73 and I remember it vividly.

The IRS’ “safe harbor” rules for withholding and estimated taxes are as follows- This is all you’re obligated to do and if you do it then they can’t charge you penalties/interest. For the overwhelming majority of W-2 employees, you’re going get to this every year from payroll withholdings. 22% is a standard withholding rate for supplemental income (bonuses), so your employers’ payroll isn’t really doing anything wrong there. What is the withholding “voodoo” you spoke of? Depending on your compensation structure I suppose it’s possible that if you get a lot of bonus and it’s only ever withheld at 22% and your marginal rate is higher, you could fall beneath the safe harbor. The people who have recommended to you to make quarterly payments, are they colleagues or otherwise familiar with your compensation structure? If it’s common practice among your colleagues, there probably is a reason for that. If you do end up needing to make additional quarterly payments, it is not too tough, you just need to pay a bit more to hit the safe harbor of 110% of prior year taxes. The forms you fill out for the quarterly payments are very short and simple. You also can just do additional withholding through your paycheck instead of mailing a payment separately. Did you end up owing taxes this year or were your withholdings sufficient?

Ronanye has a contact form on his website, I sent him a few words of thank you and encouragement. https://cuyahogacounty.gov/executive/about-us

Modell never got a Super Bowl but the team was competitive and never a laughing stock under his ownership like it has become since ‘99.

I’m kind of surprised the whole checked bag fee hasn’t been restructured by somebody. These days, everybody wants to carry on, and most airlines practically beg people to check their bag at the gate. I’m surprised nobody started offering 1 free checked bag and a charge to carry on.

That would be amazing if the stadium got NIMBY’d in the end, ha. UO can make this one exception to our position on NIMBYs.

JobsOhio is the state of Ohio agency in charge of economic development. TeamNEO is essentially the local branch office. They control the state’s own pots of money. Greater Cleveland Partnership is the local business organization (chamber of commerce) and is privately funded by its business members. They control private pots of money set up by their members, large banks, etc. they invest in projects they view as beneficial to the future economy of the region and therefore beneficial to their members. They also obviously lobby local governments for the same reasons. Fund for Economic Future is some kind of private foundation but I don’t remember where the money came from, could be some big philanthropist of some kind. Then you have city and county governments controlling their own pots of money. and also the Cleveland Foundation which is basically a bunch of Rockefeller and Carnegie money from 100 years ago that has been well managed. And a few other big foundations like Gund. So it is all different pots of money from different sources and that is why there are so many groups. For big projects, developers/agencies will go around and talk to all of these bodies and cobble together funding.

They moved in after the pandemic, maybe early 2023. Coyne signed a lot of new tenants at the time including my former employer. As the article said, it was one of the strongest buildings coming out of covid as a lot of companies moved in. Winking Lizard came from across the street at that time as well. And he redid the gym and shared conference rooms. It’s a nice place. Actually not sure where colossal was before that, not a big cupcake guy haha.

winking lizard, colossal cupcakes, a gym for building tenants, and a lunch/juice place called Anna in the Raw. Also there used to be a Starbucks but it closed during covid.

Indian Hill, a posh suburb of Cincinnati, is most notorious for doing this. They crossed the threshold and became a city so they changed their name to “The Village of Indian Hill.” So they are legally The City of The Village of Indian Hill.

Sometimes addresses need to be reconfigured depending on how parcels get sliced up vs. what was there before. It’s likely the stadium will ultimately be “1 Bernie Kosar Way” or something of that nature.

I’ve visited Carmel Indiana on multiple occasions… quite an interesting thing they’ve achieved.

United Skates of America is still going strong in Wickliffe after many, many years.

Detroit has some pretty hot commodity brands downtown. Not sure if Dan Gilbert is subsidizing it all.

Haslam has shown himself to not exactly be a strategic genius…
