Cranley Doing Well

John Cranley is doing well in the fund raising race for the 1st Congressional District. Can he turn the corner and gain the votes too? I haven't seen any polls, but Cranley stands a fair chance to win, in this conservative district.

Man Killed Outside of Bar

Horrible news, which will surely drive the press and the city-haters into a frenzy.

More on Alchemize's Move

This time we gain a perspective from Covington officials.

Honestly, it is surprising to gain this much press for something that isn't even final yet. What attracts the Press to a situation like this?

Now, I am going to ask the anti-Nick crowd to play nice, and keep your venom to yourself. You look like Children. I know who most of you are anyway, so please, don't be an ass.

Andy Gets Out Safe

Andy Hajjar owner of Andy's Mediterranean Grill had to get out of Lebanon via Syria. Glad he got out safely.

Great News, IF!

Great news for downtown with word that Prosecutor Joe Deters is working to close down the Metropole Apartments on Walnut St. across from the Aronoff Center.

Now, there is one big IF to this, it depends on the City/County to find homes for those displaced by the shutdown, which is supposed to happen. It is not going to be easy, and hopefully the cost will be nil to the law abiding people, mostly elderly, who will feel some short term discomfort with this move. In the long run, if the City/County pull through, everyone will be better off.

Question: Why doesn't this happen more often? Why isn't this happening with the crack houses in OTR?

Bottled BarrelHouse Beer

Great news for beer lovers. This also gives Cincinnati something we've not had for a while, a local bottled brewery. Cleveland might be drinking Barrellhouse as well as Great Lakes beers soon.

More Hate

Some nut is again targeting a local Mosque with death threats. Little is done to try and root out the anti-muslim sentiments in certain sectors in the area. Why is that? Why do people continue to let this type of nutcase hate to fester?
