He Needs a Cape
Can someone please make Vice Mayor Jim Tarbell a cape? His latest crime fighting action surely earns him the right to be considered a local super hero, fighting crime in our fare city.
Able to leap his scooter in a single leap, its SUPER JIM!

Oxford International Film Festival
This appears like it will be a great event for Oxford and Miami University. Why can't UC or others here in Cincinnati pull this off?

Taste Moves to 5th Street
The Taste of Cincinnati is moving from its long time home on Central Parkway five blocks down to 5th Street.
My take is that it's great idea for the festival and for downtown. It will showcase the Square and bring more people in who may think of staying the night. I believe we are starting to see the impact of the new Fountain Square. We are starting to see the center of a new mainstream entertainment district form in 4th to 7th street areas. The area is compact enough for people to walk, but spread out to not have an over dense bar zone. I would have gone to taste anyway, but now I am more interest in going and will likely come down multiple days, if the music is as good as has been the past. (Get the Heartless Bastards to play again!!!)
More from WLWT and the Enquirer.

More Downtown Progress?
Today's paper reports the possibility that Jeff Ruby and Bootsy Collins will open a restaurant downtown, another one in the case of Ruby.
I am sure some will hate the idea of another local business being started in downtown. This would be a local business that doesn't cater to an aging hippie crowd, mind you, which I am sure burns someone's bee's wax.

New Restaurant Downtown
Another restaurant will will be opening downtown. I am sure this is pissing off a few folks on a different blog, but I guess they'll be more inclined to just stay away.
