    Massive collection of rare Superman items donated to Cleveland Public Library Associated Press , WKYC 11:41 AM. EST July 03, 2016 CLEVELAND -- A comic strip writer who is a Superman super-fan has donated his collection of about 17,000 pieces for a permanent exhibit dedicated to the Man of Steel at Cleveland's main library. Seventy-five years' worth of Superman memorabilia was boxed up by Arkansas native Mike Curtis and sent by truck to the Cleveland Public Library, where staff will piece together an exhibit honoring the hero's creators. http://www.wkyc.com/news/local/cleveland/massive-collection-of-rare-superman-items-donated-to-cleveland-public-library/262584605

  14. 36 Hours in Cleveland By ELAINE GLUSAC JUNE 30, 2016 Whatever the fallout from the forthcoming Republican National Convention, Cleveland, with its booming food scene and revitalized downtown, is camera ready. http://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2016/06/29/travel/what-to-do-36-hours-cleveland.html?_r=0
  15. Ask a Local: An Insider's Guide to Cleveland, Ohio “People ask me why I left Portland, and I tell them that Cleveland now is very similar to what Portland was 15 years ago,” said Robert Stockham, general manager at the city’s premiere coffee roaster, Rising Star. Except Cleveland is a city with its own swagger, and a cost of living so low that Stockham said, “You can buy a house for less than a car, and you should never pay full retail price for anything here.” Also: Cleveland is the place for a hipster hotdog hangout that puts Fruit Loops on its dogs, a brewery that has residents lining up for Christmas-spiced beer, and one of the world’s best symphony orchestras. Come hungry, and let Stockham be your guide. http://www.bonappetit.com/restaurants-travel/article/cleveland-ohio-guide?mbid=social_facebook

    So I just improved the Cleveland city Sports section. It previously reeked on negative undertones, focusing primarily on not winning a title. Now it's more objective, and includes sports successes: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cleveland#sports

    With national and international media ascending on Cleveland over these next few weeks for the RNC, I highly suggest we spruce up many of our Cleveland and Cleveland-related wiki pages. It's a safe bet to expect a lot more articles like this: http://www.chicagotribune.com/lifestyles/travel/midwest/ct-cleveland-ohio-rnc-travel-0710-20160627-story.html Therefore, I anticipate a lot of lazy reporting...let's make it easy for them to get updated and more complete information.
  22. One more The Hottest City In The World June 27, 2016 1:45 PM Cleveland! – this is for you!!! But first a question. What in the hell is happening in that city? The Cavs blow up the world and win a title. And the Indians haven’t lost since. The hottest team in baseball, plays for the hottest city in the world. The Indians have won 9 in a row. They have the lowest era in the AL. They’re perched in first place above the world champion Royals. And yesterday in Detroit they finished their third straight sweep of the Tigers this season while nearly retiring Justin Verlander in the process. It’s getting weeeeeeeird in Cleveland. The Cavs came back from down 3-1 to beat a 73-win team. And the Indians just jumped a former league MVP for four home runs. In one inning. Cleveland rocks! http://jimrome.com/2016/06/27/the-hottest-city-in-the-world/
  23. Cleveland, a city on the rebound Mark Taylor Chicago Tribune June 27, 2016, 3:04 PM With the eyes of the world on what promises to be a boisterous Republican National Convention July 18-21, Cleveland is dusting off its good suit and rolling out the welcome mat. This bruising, brawling Rust Belt community has transformed itself in recent decades, recapturing the buzz that made it a Midwest cultural capital. After all, it's home to the world-renowned Cleveland Orchestra, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and none other than Superman, whose origins can be traced to a couple of creative teens living in the Glenville neighborhood in the 1930s. In addition to a vibrant arts and theater scene, Cleveland is fast becoming a dining destination, with the most recent high-profile newcomer hailing from native son and celebrity chef Michael Symon. "The Chew" star rolled out his new "Cleveland-style" barbecue joint in the spring. And then there's that whole NBA Championship thing. Cleveland, as they say, is having a moment. http://www.chicagotribune.com/lifestyles/travel/midwest/ct-cleveland-ohio-rnc-travel-0710-20160627-story.html
