It being the only way I know to reach Mayor Jackson about the Sammy Catania problem.

Subject: Mayor, please exert leverage, we are once again given a very bad image that may be long lasting

I was moved today by coverage in the Cleveland Plain Dealer of the Gulf Oil Spill - Living in Alabama, with the oil spill: Ryan Dezember - props for this personal and eye opening guest editorial today - from the PD: Dezember is a reporter for the Mobile Press-Register in Alabama. He is a graduate of Kent State University, and a Bay Village native. Some key observations:

That morning, I caught my first whiff of the pungent odor outside my house some five miles north of the beach. So stifling was the acrid smell that before making the connection to the spill, I figured that someone in my neighborhood was getting a new roof.

Such is the prognosis that federal wildlife officials have decided that there is virtually no chance any of the 50,000 or so sea turtle hatchlings that emerge from the northern Gulf's beaches each summer would survive in their now-toxic natal waters.

The consequences of losing the entire $1.5 billion summer tourism season will be far-reaching. Right now is the season's peak, and the glassy towers that line the beach are emptier than they were in the dead of winter.

Early in the morning of June 23, the spill's pall claimed its first local casualty. William Allen "Rookie" Kruse, a 55-year-old fisherman, sent his crew on an errand at a Gulf Shores marina and -- while they were still within earshot -- put a pistol to his head and fired.

In honor of "Councilman Cimperman - WHY ARE YOU DOING NOTHING?????" with 801 reads as of today - "TNK - Tomorrow Never Knows" - from one of the greatest bands few people know - 801 - featuring Brian Eno, Phil Manzanara, and other Roxy Music greats, covering John Lennon's Tomorrow Never Knows - the video is filmed in Second Life, it appears... which is interesting in itself... never been there before

Like in Sue Coe's painting of this organized crime -
"Woman Walks into Bar - Is Raped by Four Men on the Pool Table - While 20 Watch"
- Tremont bars are home to real organized criminals violent against Guy Templeton Black

Organized crime means people organizing together to commit crime - like leaders of development corporations, councilmen, the mayor, police and prosecutors, and business owners organizing to violate city laws, ordinances and human rights in Tremont. 

While the most obvious examples of organized crimes in Tremont have been intentional, collusive, proactive violations of restaurant building, parking, patio, occupancy, handicapped accessibility, waste management, property, health and safety laws and ordinances, recent incidents involving reported gunplay and documented violence by TWDC staff and their friends against Guy Templeton Black prove there is a violent organized crime syndicate in Tremont, willing, able, and happy to inflict physical harm upon the weak.

realNEO Cuyahoga Council Candidate Question #1: Explain The Cost To Society Of This Pollution Point Source.

Where is this major air pollution source located, what is the business responsible, what are the economics of the business and its pollution relative to the regional and state economies, what are the costs to society of the pollution caused, at all levels, and how well informed are citizens of all these facts, to protect them from significant physical harm?

Today is July 16, 2010....

Citizens of Northeast Ohio have RIGHTS to be protected encompassing the Ohio Revised Code, Federal Laws, and Codified Ordinances of the City of Cleveland.

For all too long, the laws have been used to "HUSH" citizens who spoke up and againSt corruption...

For ages, Whisteblowers in Cleveland could expect a list of retaliatory practices that undermined their credibility....

Is G Ticket as an alternative to Ticketmaster just a rumor? G Ticket could possibly be born from fans who have grown tired of Ticketmaster's service fees. Adding to the general public dissatisfaction is the Ticketmaster monopoly--especially after a Ticketmaster merger with Live Nation, the nation's largest concert promoter was approved by the Department of Justice. The company's stranglehold on live entertainment is stronger than ever.

In Case You Are Wondering If The Cleveland Plain Dealer Will Cover The Pollution From MCCO?!?!...

Will the plain Dealer promote the upcoming EPA hearing on the licensing of the MCCO coal burning plant that provides steam heat to University Hospitals, among over 20 University Circle institutions...

The first rule of the Art Of Surviving Cleveland is PROTECT YOUR DNA!

As reported on realNEO: "what we have learned after sampling and genetically profiling many gull families is that colonies close to integrated steel mills transmit DNA mutations to their offspring more frequently than those at rural sites. In addition, the closer the colony to steel mills, the higher the mutation rate".  Further, "Our genetic analyses of environmentally exposed mice revealed that offspring from the steel site inherited nearly double the frequency of DNA mutations compared to their rural counterparts. Clearly, air pollution near integrated steel mills can induce genetic damage. At this time we cannot identify the class of chemical pollutant responsible, but suggest that polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, by-products of coal combustion, are a likely candidate."

In other words, and further: if you want to live a long, healthy, normal life and perhaps have offspring... DON'T live, work, eat, visit or play near a steel mill or any coal-burning facility... DON'T DO THIS:

We need to make sure that it is what it purports to be and not camouflage.

Here is the truth about CLEAN COAL... it is a corrupt, ignorant JOKE that will never benefit you - NEVER!

Here is the truth about DIRTY COAL POLLUTING OHIO - we IMPORT IT - it hurts our economy to use it in EVERY WAY!

Here is the truth about BURNING COAL IN OHIO - it KILLS CITIZENS - because CORRUPT Ohio politicians SOLD OUT TO COAL

For example, Coal-Pimping Senator Poisonovich still to this day "recommends developing affordable clean coal" - read on from Voinovich's Plain Dealer...

Tonight, the Cleveland Urban Design Collaborative held a book release party for the third installment of their design series. 

 The following is an excerpt from the  linked documents (see below) that were completed this morning and represent comprehensive alternative provisions and strategies for the LED Lighting Ordinance Cleveland City Council is deliberating on today.

What is is in certain people's make-up  that when they get up in the morning they want to go out and try to change the WORLD?

Are they a little bit crazy? How can they think they will make a difference on a street corner in a big city? (image in downtown Boston, Massachusetts)

There are very few days which go by in Cleveland when I don't feel Ed is Kicking Ass.

Cleveland Port Authority has passed Mr. Wasserman down the line, E55 St Port move is history, Eaton isn't stealing the lakefront on the East side of the Cuyahoga, and the Coast Guard Station might actually be getting a roof!

So a number of  the directions Ed was striving towards are becoming closer....

Non-compliant restaurants in Tremont get behind Sammy Catania after his violent, threatening and verbal outburst against a Senior handicapped life long resident of Tremont. 

Are the puzzle pieces now fitting together?  Perhaps and, perhaps there is still a missing piece.  I don't believe that Councilman Cimperman has made any statement declaring his position to the Tremont community at large ?  How will this attack effect the elderly, handicapped, low-income and long-time minorities at the election poles?

Good Cheer. Good Cause. Good Beer
Every summer, people from all over the Great Lakes region raise a pint at the Burning River Fest to salute the “watershed moment” that raised a new level of eco-consciousness—the 1969 burning of the Cuyahoga River. This year’s party will feature live music, fresh food from local farms and eateries, educational environmental exhibits and a special appearance by Great Lakes Brewing Company’s Christmas Ale!

Legalize It and I Will Industrialize It: Industrial Hemp Is the Engine to Kickstart This Economy

Over 30 countries around the world grow industrial hemp, including big players like China and France. Multipurpose and versatile - hemp makes its way into everything from ice cream to paint to clothing - hemp could be called the wonder resource. In North America alone, the hemp industry accounts for over $360 million annually, and yet the U.S. has yet to make its way onto the list of agriculturally and economically savvy countries that are reaping the benefits of cultivating the crop.
