Ok, Ok, Fine! I meant, fire the camera "man." That better.

Hurrah!!! Of course the first comment on the pd blog is negative:

Fire the camera man. 8-)

Slightly off-topic, but it might effect some the daily commute for some of you.

Whoa!

I'm Number 10!!! I'm Number 10!!! I'm Number 10!!!

HEY, HEY, HEY.... That was supposed to be a secret.

And the other reason? :-D

Brilliant job, KJP. Gotta love good detective work.

GE institute in Cleveland serves as Medical Mart model Sunday, September 09, 2007 By Frank Bentayou Plain Dealer Reporter Northeast Ohio hopes to create a Medical Mart that holds the promise of drawing thousands of visiting professionals to 50 trade shows a year. The mart could bring millions of dollars into the region, according to Merchandise Mart Properties Inc. MMPI is the Chicago developer proposing the venture in conjunction with new downtown convention conference centers. A model for the Medical Mart has operated on the East Side for decades and plans to increase out-of-town visitors for professional and training seminars... more at: http://www.cleveland.com

New RTA stations could jumpstart University Circle transformation Steven Litt Saturday, September 08, 2007 Cleveland needs a new architecture and urban design award, not for architects and planners, but for clients. If such a prize existed, the Greater Cleveland Regional Tran sit Authority would be a strong con tender to win it this year. No, I'm not talking about RTA's big current project, the $200 million Euclid Avenue transit corridor scheduled for completion next year. It's too soon to say whether the project will be a success. I'm speaking instead of RTA's advance planning for two related projects in University Circle, both of which have the potential to be outstanding... more at: http://www.cleveland.com

Agreed!!! This is an obvious move to "get back" at CSU for not resigning the contract they used to hold not the Nebraska Books is any better. In fact, they are worse. At least B&N used to have a bin for books they would not buy back and let you go through them. Nebraska is taking peoples books they will not buy back (because really, what are you going to do with some of these books in the future) and still reselling them from their warehouse.

Crain's: Foundation awards Clinic $1M grant By SHANNON MORTLAND 9:21 am, September 6, 2007 The Cleveland Clinic has received a $1 million grant to research and create stem cell-based therapies for cardiovascular disease. The Skirball Foundation, which was founded in 1950 in Cleveland but now is based in New York, provided the gift. The grant will support research in the Skirball Laboratory for Cardiovascular Cellular Therapeutics, which will be overseen by Dr. Marc Penn, director of the Clinic’s Cardiovascular Medicine Research Group for Cell Therapy. Researchers in the lab will study different stem cells to determine how cell-based therapies can be created and used to restore normal heart function. “Stem cell therapies hold the keys to identifying not only how we can preserve the heart after a heart attack, but how we can fully repair it,” Dr. Penn said. “This grant will enable us to explore the mechanisms of a variety of stem cell populations, ultimately giving us the basis for genetically engineering stem cells that can be used to repair damaged heart tissue.”

Looking for this Crain's article - please to assist me: (I think this is the thread this was discussed. If not, place wherever.)

Is it me, or has the construction on the house near the Westinghouse curve stalled/stopped?
