Cincinnati Streetcar / The Connector News
Sillyman used the Politics 101 thing in his community access "courses" all the time. Wonder why he quit doing them. I guess everybody knows everything since he got elected. Why don't streetcar supporters use community access cable?

Deadwood, Dakota Territory (also Mt. Rushmore)
the "swastika" is also called a fylfot cross. It's got occult meaning out the wazoo. yeah, Deadwood was a tourist place but small time. The bar where Bill got shot was one floor & when I was there a passed out biker was AOK. Now they serve seafood & stuff. WTF? Scenic is a teeny tiny "town" on the edge of the Badlands S of Rapid and, if you see it, you will see some outdoor jail cells. They were made in Cleveland.

Deadwood, Dakota Territory (also Mt. Rushmore)
I visited Deadwood around 1981 & again around 2008. The difference was amazing. I think I liked the old version better. Did you visit Scenic?

Cities with a square, a main street, or an intersection...
^:-) ^^because of the way the street is routed & the way the sidewalk is routed, I'd say Urbana is more of a square than an intersection. Maybe a square outline, but.....

Tower costs needed to lure jobs, military missions
The city will likely spend up to $267,000 to operate the air traffic control tower at the Springfield-Beckley Municipal Airport for another year in hopes of attracting drone businesses and bringing a new mission to the Springfield Air National Guard Base. An operating tower is especially critical to securing a training mission for the 445th Airlift Wing Air Force Reserve based at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, city leaders said. http://www.springfieldnewssun.com/news/news/local-military/city-tower-costs-needed-to-lure-jobs-military-miss/nRQm9/

Cincinnati Streetcar / The Connector News
bingo I honestly don't see a reason for a streetcar line anywhere else in the city. The basin has the potential for high density mixed use development that will give a return in tax revenue. The Clifton route has nothing more to offer. You could just run more frequent buses.

Maybe she interviewed Tom Luken. Seriously, think of the names of people the media has associated with this debate & who would you interview? This is a failure of supporters who have clearly seen the media whoring that opponents have used so successfully.

US Economy: News & Discussion
America the Undertaxed there's just a snippet of the article for free - basically it says certain tax rates in the U.S. might be higher than other countries but the other countries tax stuff the U.S. doesn't so comparing things like 'top corporate tax rates' isn't too useful. http://www.foreignaffairs.com/articles/137838/andrea-louise-campbell/america-the-undertaxed?cid=soc-tumblr-in-essays-america_the_undertaxed-082312
