Cincinnati: Urban Grocery Stores
That is why it is significant that Kroger maintains a store there. OT rant: When a canned food manufacturer mimics the label of a leading brand for their brand, they are being deceptive but one need not buy from that manufacturer.. When the grocery does it, you are still supporting them even when you don't buy the product. Kroger is horrible at this deceptive tactic. It is rude and disrespectful to the customer. yeesh do I like these guys or not ?

"I was shocked," Stridsberg said. "I never thought it would be me." The 18-year-old North High School grad strutted the stage in a yellow polka-dot dress Sunday afternoon and confidently answered questions, including what the biggest challenge is that youth face. ... http://www.springfieldnewssun.com/hp/content/oh/story/news/local/2007/07/22/sns072307fairqueen.html

ugh Finally got in. Central Northside (Cincinnati) gets a 78 with 1 restaurant in walking distance (you need to pass a restaurant to get to it) & the nearest coffee shop being a Starbucks 5 miles away (never mind that there is one right around the corner). yeah, this thing is messed up. But lemme say, if you have a comic book store, a bar and someplace selling burritos in walking distance, you oughtta get a 200 in my book.

Cincinnati: Urban Grocery Stores
I remember Kroger wanting to build one on Central Parkway right near their offices. They couldn't buy the real estate. If somebody else can, maybe they can sell it to Kroger. They amintain the store in Vine is a continual loss ut tehy keep it open anyway. I guess the downtowners wanting a Kroger want a special Kroger ? BTW I hate Kroger. They keep discontinuing to carry name brand products and then replace them with their own. I'd say, go with traditional corner markets.

I can't believe the activity on this thread ! :-) Mot of the characters seem ok for older characters. The little red haired girls is seriously hot. But I don't think I like Schroeder. He never struck me as the broody type.

Cincinnati Gay Rights
I looked for a similar topic but couldn't find it . Judge unloads on Brinkman BY SHARON COOLIDGE | [email protected] A judge said two women were wrong to falsify election petitions to earn bonuses but directed much of his ire at state Rep. Tom Brinkman Jr., who headed up the unsuccessful petition drive last year to repeal Cincinnati's gay-rights ordinance. Hamilton County Common Pleas Judge Robert Ruehlman slammed Brinkman from the bench Wednesday, calling him the "real criminal" in the record changing. The Republican judge said the lawmaker should be charged with complicity to election fraud, acted without ethics and suggested that the state House of Representatives should toss him from office.

The Real Reason the Music industry is Suffering
"The story I always heard was the record company "didn't know what to do" with this band. Well, maybe just get their stuff played on the radio and let it sell itself." That video is pretty hilarious. I kept thinking, "ok, where is the guy she's singing about?" Anyway - what radio station, in Cincinnati at least, would ever play that band ? Did they want to be promoted as "Country" ?

Cycling Advocacy
Seicer I used to use toe clips - yeah pretty pointless in the city. I don't understand the not having to stop at stop signs idea, tho. Rob one of the probs with a bike lane like that is: how do you make a left turn ? I think that if you start making bike lanes, motorists will think that is the only place you should be. If you really need to get around - you need to use the road.
