Ed Davis, Cincinnati 1979 opening for the Customs with 'Keith Richards is Dead'. I saw this band around this time when they opened for Patti Smith at Bogarts. When Bogarts had a restaurant....

Mad Jam by Raven 1975 (Columbus) from the album, Back to Ohio Blues

The future soldier will be part human, part machine In other words, the technology in future armor will really complete humans Twenty-five years from now, we may be to the point where the sensors are embedded in the skin and the person becomes the processor http://nbr.com/2014/05/14/the-future-soldier-will-be-part-human-part-machine/

If the Windbag notes the wind shifting direction, he'll be all over it.

I doubt the planners had 'those people' in mind... Still, did these guys go out to the areas and ask if residents & businesses wanted them? Yhey oughtta put a big station at the Mohawk building in Central Parkway....

It always amazes me how seldom I see an Ohio flag in Cincinnati.

In Cranley's budget document, he discusses all the development that has been going on in 2014. Never mentions any of the streetcar work.

The Cincinnati news put this in Dayton. The Dayton news put it in Springfield. Someone from Springfield told me it was in Tipp City. whatever

Building permits, inspection fees up Special event permits up some new fees (taxes) stiffing CPS He seems pretty optimistic in estimating costs will go down on sewer & water. Cuts to snow removal are fairly optimistic, too. And there's still the chance the courts might order the city to pay more into the pension fund annually.

Cincinnati's vision in Uptown: More people, more retail, more new businesses More people living in Uptown, key intersections anchored with mixed-use buildings, pedestrian-friendly streetscapes and a technology corridor along Reading Road. http://www.bizjournals.com/cincinnati/news/2014/05/13/cincinnatis-vision-in-uptown-more-people-more.html

Per my previous post about my stupid camera question... Any recommendations to replace a Canon Powershot s2 is ? I'm fine with the camera's functions but it's not functioning & the lens cap FLIES off the thing. I have to wrap it in rubber bands when I take it out to keep the lens cap on. I do not want another Canon. Thinking $250-350. thanks

A million years ago, I got some new speakers & a guy told me they made records he didn't like sound good. I don't know what $300 equates to nowadays but I don't think it's $50k and if you're playing MP3s....
