Flag Wars, recent documentary I stumbled upon...Submitted by Glowbawl on Wed, 01/21/2009 - 12:33.
1st post here... I got a copy of this documentary and figured I'd let folks know it exists. Flag Wars http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0359281 Focus is on a Columbus neighborhood, and it's fairly akin to Tremont, East Cleveland, or Ohio City issues. I found this movie to be interesting but I wouldn't go as far as the review below and say it's great. It did have a bunch of neighbors who really grated on one another though, hence there were some lively realizations of homophobia and racism brewing. from berkeleymedia.com:

CLEVELAND'S BURDENSOME PAST REMAINS WITH USSubmitted by Roldo on Wed, 01/21/2009 - 10:41.
I was going through an overstuffed file that had been resting on a shelf in the cellar. The broken fake leather file held old letters, cards, complaints and even some compliments going back to the 1960s. A note from 1989 that I can barely read said, “I hope you’re still around 20 years from now… Nobody else will monitor to see if the Jacobs brothers keep their promise to help the neighborhoods.” Well it’s a surprise to even me that I’m still around.

THINKING OF CARL ON A DAY AS THISSubmitted by Roldo on Tue, 01/20/2009 - 07:48.
I’ll have to think of Carl Stokes on a day as this. The election of Carl Stokes in November, 1967, came as a release in Cleveland much as, I think, Barak Obama’s election, culminating today in his inauguration, does for the nation. Cleveland had been wracked by racial problems and animosity that kept relations between blacks and whites raw in this town. The 1960s were hell in Cleveland. We see the results of that more vividly today.

TELL ME I'M NOT READING WHAT I'M READINGSubmitted by Roldo on Mon, 01/19/2009 - 17:02.
The impoverished City of Cleveland – with all its problems – is giving Howard Hanna (Smyth Cramer) $250,000 to renovate the offices downtown that the realtor bought last October, the Plain Dealer recently reported. “I want to thank the mayor because this was not a done deal. This was a deal where we had to go on the offense,” said downtown Councilman Joe Cimperman to the Plain Dealer. Well, it sure is offensive to me.

PLAIN DEALER'S IDEA OF "CITIZEN'S COMMITTEE"Submitted by Roldo on Mon, 01/19/2009 - 13:33.
This is how distortion gets mistaken for reality. This is where propaganda outdoes truth. The Plain Dealer this a.m. in its crusade for the Medical Mart calls the group that selected the Tower City site a “citizen’s committee.” That’s really reporting very loosely with the truth - to describe a group that is entirely made up of Corporate/Corporate controlled individuals as representing the vast citizenry, thus the public. There isn’t a normal “citizen” on the committee because they are all related to the corporate community and its self-interests.

Invest in Cycling and Walking to Restore NE Ohio NeighborhoodsSubmitted by Kevin Cronin on Sun, 01/18/2009 - 15:05.
Northeast Ohio has the opportunity to rebuild our neighborhoods and by offering healthier and more active transportation choices, we can create thriving neighborhoods where people want to live. However, the current transportation network leaves us way behind the curve. New investment to support walking and biking will create pedestrian-friendly neighborhoods, an important step to get the nation back on track. Fortunately, it's a cost-effective step we can take in these tight financial times.
dogs in my life and Merle's Door - best dog book so farSubmitted by Susan Miller on Sun, 01/18/2009 - 08:56.
Dogs have always been in my life. As a child, my first dog was one who had been slipped under the fence by our Japanese neighbors on the base where my family lived in Nagoya, Japan. Dozo came back to the states with us on the big ship and was my best buddy, standing between me and the street in our neighborhoods and following me everywhere. He died when I was in first grade (my father always had a way of keeping these details from me so I don't know exactly how he died). Susan and Dozo with geranium Tallahassee, Florida 1959

New Biz in TremontSubmitted by DesireeSchmitt on Sat, 01/17/2009 - 22:52.
Check out Suki Yume in Tremont. This is my tenant and she just put the finishing touches on her business... beautiful, new sign... window stickers... address numbers (finally) installed. Paula is drawn to Asian Ball Joint Dolls (or ABJD) because of their beauty and unique customization. You can take a blank doll and paint your own face, change the hair, change the eyes... make it your own. Tremonts artistic base makes this shop a perfect fit.
