  1. Springfield high/South High will be offering tours before they engage in some interior renovations 8/15 & 8/17 Springfield City School District officials, along with partners from Clark-Shawnee Local Schools, the Global Impact STEM Academy and Springfield-Clark Career Technology Center, will hold a renovation “groundbreaking” ceremony at 3 p.m. Aug. 15. small group tours will be led through the 103-year-old building from 4 to 6 p.m. Tours will also be offered on Sunday from 2 to 4 p.m. I think I was in that building once or twice. I was in the auditorium and maybe the print shop. http://www.springfieldnewssun.com/news/news/public-tours-of-south-high-offered-at-renovation-k/ngtnn/?ecmp=springfieldnews_social_facebook_2014_sfp
  2. This is the impression I get of the HamCo Commissioners & this issue
  3. I could have used that when I went to NOLA a few years ago. My experience was very ~meh~ Seems like every Tom, Dick & Harry wants to set up a fly by night crap restaurant to fleece ourists for a couple years & then move on.
  4. I always keep my bills current with the bikers and, living between 2 good size cemeteries, come the zombie apocalypse, I'm gonna be pretty much toast anyway.
  5. I like the light that comes thru my basement glass block windows & shines on the floors & walls. It's especially nice when the sun is shining through the trees on breezy days.
  6. I posted this in the crime section but what the heck Simpson's take http://www.cincinnati.com/story/opinion/contributors/2014/08/04/simpson-barricades-provided-peace-mind/13570969/
  7. Yvette Simpson's take on her barricade plan http://www.cincinnati.com/story/opinion/contributors/2014/08/04/simpson-barricades-provided-peace-mind/13570969/ and talking to the police chief http://www.wlwt.com/news/chief-barricades-to-cut-down-on-prostitution-had-positive-impact/27296530#!bvvPnd The number of women in the sex trade in this one small area is amazing. I know it's not the only area with prostitution. This is what I would have expected in the 19th century.
  8. I think that's fair

    I never heard of these guys til today. They remind me of Black 47. They are streaming a show from Montreal tonight 8/3
  10. someone over at cincinnati.com said car x was crossing lanes when the collision with the truck occurred. No idea where he's getting his information from or if he's just making stuff up as people over there are wont to do.

    Didn't Rachel McLish make a really bad movie with that name?
  14. A fake 55krc caller said that 'My sister is a psychic...She's usually pretty good. She said there's going to be a big riot downtown and the streetcar/Music Hall will be destroyed/Wiped out' (19:50m mark) http://www.55krc.com/media/podcast-brian-thomas-morning-show-55krcMornings/55krc-morning-show-25097156/ Well, when the New Madrid fault goes, Cincinnati's going to turn into another Port au Prince so what's the point of even trying?

  16. I was in that building about a gazillion years ago when, I think Phototype (?) was there. It's kinda old, but $3.4M?

    The impact there is overrated. Subsaharan African cultures did not develop written language or the use of draft animals on their own. As for the borders, would neighboring nations from rival tribes be much better than those tribes in the same nation. well, you have nations made up of multiple partial tribes & that spurs conflict.
  18. It's mobilized some of the young Dems politically, like in the party, but I think Jake right about city hall.
  19. Biz Courier has pie charts about who would pay the sales taxes. Not sure how they know if people buying stuff do or don't live in the county, city http://www.bizjournals.com/cincinnati/blog/2014/08/chart-of-the-day-who-will-pay-music-hall-union.html
  20. This is an excellent reason for legalisation.
  21. Smitherman was always wanting a way to recall the mayor. Maybe we should support him in this endeavour. Well, if he hasn't changed his mind...
  22. 8/1 - 8/8 New bathrooms & businesses setting up booths with employment information! http://www.springfieldnewssun.com/news/news/local/champaign-county-fair-a-big-draw-for-visitors-busi/ngrpB/ Fair Queen candidates http://www.springfieldnewssun.com/news/news/champaign-county-fair-queen-bios/ngrgg/
  23. not much of an article about the barricading of McMicken Ave. http://www.cincinnati.com/story/news/politics/2014/07/31/west-mcmicken-barricades-taken/13400949/
  24. The City should go for Nathan Kennedy from Springfield, Clark County. John Shirey went up to Springfield after he got the axe in Cincinnati maybe they have compared notes...
