WHY AMTRAK IS NEVER ON TIME – HAVEN’T YOU HEARD ARLO? IT’S INTENTIONAL, STUPID!Submitted by Jeff Buster on Fri, 11/23/2007 - 14:58.
CHAPTER ONE Recently, when I spoke with a conductor on the Albany-Boston Amtrak coach, he told me that he had been working on that run for the last four years and the train had NEVER arrived on time. Consistent with his experience, we arrived an hour late.
FOUR YEARS!? Well, right off the bat you’ve gotta find that that is intentional.
So why? What seems to be going on?
FACELESS TRAVELERS AND THE US BORDER PATROLSubmitted by Jeff Buster on Wed, 11/21/2007 - 17:17.
The mood in the United States is changing towards people who don’t look like they are from here. For years I have traveled around the US and around the world and, besides being inspected and asked to produce my passport at the physical border crossing between nations, I have only been stopped inside a county once - in the 70’s – by soldados in Patagonia when Argentina was governed by the military right before Peron returned to power.

Euclid Corridor Taking Shape, of ConcreteSubmitted by Norm Roulet on Wed, 11/07/2007 - 23:44.
Driving back and forth between Ohio City and East Cleveland, I often take Euclid... partly to watch the progress of the "Silver Line" and Clinic Complex development. I increasingly find the "Silver Line" and Mid-Town aspects of all this disappointing, but I am fascinated by what I see coming together with the Cleveland Clinic.

Municipal Geothermal for Independent Green Republic of East ClevelandSubmitted by Norm Roulet on Thu, 11/01/2007 - 09:45.
While looking on Green City Blue Lake for a posting on the Breuer, I came across an interesting article by Marc Lefkowitz called "Warm up to district geothermal in Cleveland", which writes "Representatives from Case, UCI, Cleveland Clinic, city of Cleveland, Flats East Bank and Neighborhood Progress, Inc.— which is considering geothermal district power at its St. Luke’s development—met yesterday (October 22, 2007) at the Cleveland Foundation" to discuss "The economics of district-wide geothermal". It seems these groups are exploring large scale geothermal projects to help meet large energy needs, like for University Hospitals.

Follow The Money... who decides which brownfields are cleaned?Submitted by Norm Roulet on Wed, 10/24/2007 - 20:47.
There are many big industrial sites around Cleveland I pass regularly - some are active brownfields, like the Flats, and some are abandoned. Some feature Cleveland Landbank signs and are in stages of redevelopment... the one featured here is on the West Side of Cleveland, at Bishop Road and Madison, by W. 117, and the city has clearly spent $millions clearing up this huge property of many acres.
VISCERAL BUSINESSES - THE GUTS OF OUR ECONOMYSubmitted by Jeff Buster on Mon, 10/22/2007 - 21:20.
![]() So when I walked by Joe, at the door taking a breather, asked..."you from Boston?" Well, I had visited Boston (and I had spaced that the Indians were up against them just then) - so I thought the guy was able to see into the future. Stable on my feet, I walked into the All State Barber College, and l felt that HERE was the healthy, real economic future.

HEADED DOWNSubmitted by Jeff Buster on Thu, 09/06/2007 - 14:10.
![]() The property next to me has been for sale for over 2 years. And after a similar fruitless wait, the owner of the house two doors up just last week pulled their house back off the market. Nothing is selling in my neighborhood. In Parma – where I took the “rent to own” and “cash at closing” photos the neighborhoods are littered with empty for-sale houses. In Cleveland Heights and Shaker Heights a few houses are even being auctioned – very unusual for those suburbs. Then there’s Cleveland and East Cleveland.

See map: Google Maps Did Mayor Jackson Really Say That? If So, What Does He Mean?Submitted by Kevin Cronin on Fri, 08/10/2007 - 14:10.
When the Cleveland population dipped below 500,000, the population basis for many federal grant formula, the ability of the federal partner to help on our urban problems was constrained, as the City became one of only many cities across the country, rather than one of the larger, most impactful cities on its own. So strategies to increase the city population deserve special consideration, yes? Well, perhaps not.
