RealNEO HeaderReinventing Browns Deli into The Star Market and Cafe - transformational neighborhood redevelopment, one convenience at a timeSubmitted by Norm Roulet on Mon, 05/05/2008 - 00:35.
Welcome to The Star Market and Cafe! What would make you walk, ride and drive out of your way and stop here? When? Why? Now is the time for Star Neighborhood Development to reinvent a blighted urban convenient store into a community asset. But how? That depends on you. What will you support here?
WHO'S IN CHARGE OF TELLING FLOWERS WHEN TO BLOOM?Submitted by Jeff Buster on Thu, 05/01/2008 - 12:48.
![]() We have all attended meetings where you leave feeling you didn’t get to say what was on your mind; your brainy thoughts never saw the light of day – you may never get your chance. ( categories: )
WATER RECREATION RESOURCES WELL USED IN BOSTONSubmitted by Jeff Buster on Wed, 04/30/2008 - 15:49.
![]() Here is an April 21, 2008 image of the MIT sailing club practicing with MIT designed TECH dinghies in an east wind on the Charles River Basin between Cambridge and Boston, Massachusetts. This area used to be a tidal estuary a hundred or more years ago, but is now separated from the Atlantic by a control lock – though thousands of Alewife run up fish ladders to spawn. There are dozens of power boat clubs, sailing clubs and rowing clubs which line the Charles River from the first upstream falls in Watertown, Massachusetts (at the west end of the Basin) to the east end Locks. Cleveland's integration - for recreation - of its river-side and lake-side water resources pales in comparison to the water-side recreational access provided by Boston and Toronto and Chicago. While Ed Hauser sticks up for one of the only decent public park on the waterfront in Cleveland, the Dirty Dealer whines shrilly for it's corporate pal - Eaton – with panicky advocacy for an empty-headed "corporate campus" on the Lakefront. Boy oh Buoy! - Cleveland doesn't get it. ( categories: )
Question of the day: What is your favorite cookbook?Submitted by Norm Roulet on Tue, 04/29/2008 - 23:19.
All species, all races, everywhere, we all must eat, frequently, so we humans may as well eat well. I prefer to eat at home, food I prepare, of ingredients I know, in a kitchen I trust... there are few restaurants in the world that make me happier than homemade. But I certainly turn to experts for advice on food selection and preparation, and many of my favorite books - the ones I read over and over, and can't do without - are cookbooks. I find all types interesting... international, ethnic, historical, regional... and consider many required reading. I'd be interesting for other foodie realneo members who share an interest in cooking to share their favorite cookbooks... some of mine are the header for today...

DNA GAITERSSubmitted by Jeff Buster on Tue, 04/08/2008 - 20:03.

SUPPORT OUR TROOPS WITH HYPOCRISYSubmitted by Jeff Buster on Mon, 04/07/2008 - 18:39.
![]() When the Iraq war began years ago, you could buy one of these magnetic backed plastic "ribbons" for a dollar or two. I'll bet Karl Rove came up with the three word phase "support our troops". ( categories: )
CARPET OF CROCUS - HOW MANY YEARS IN THE MAKING!Submitted by Jeff Buster on Sat, 04/05/2008 - 23:08.
![]() Flowers which propagate by bulbs don’t spread very fast. Maybe a few inches per year. So here is a photo of a front yard which has 70 or 80 feet of intense crocuses. ( categories: )
CUYAHOGA COUNTY COURTHOUSE 1912 CARVINGSubmitted by Jeff Buster on Fri, 04/04/2008 - 15:14.
![]() You should visit the Cuyahoga County Court House at Ontario and Lakeside in Cleveland, Ohio. Built in 1912 as part of the Burnham Plan, the building is a jewel. Be sure to go to the second floor and ask to see inside the Appeals Court Room which faces Lakeside. This carving is above the judge's bench in the Appeals Court Room. ( categories: )
CROCUS - WAITING ALL WINTER TO BUST OUTSubmitted by Jeff Buster on Thu, 04/03/2008 - 10:53.
Months of embrace from rock hard frozen earth doesn’t distract them, carpets of last falls brown leaves don’t hold them down – a little thawing and a bit more sunshine and up they bound. ( categories: )
What do we bring to Mind of Cleveland?Submitted by Norm Roulet on Sat, 03/29/2008 - 01:58.
Over the past few weeks, I've noticed strange Clevelandesque slogans posted on billboards around town, with the attribution "Mind of Cleveland". I remember wondering if this was another Cleveland+hype campaign... or about AIDS prevention... and planned to google it later...

Every spring daffodils announce renewal…the earth has been dormant during winter but is coming alive as the sun moves towards our northern axis.

ART IS WHERE YOU FIND ITSubmitted by Jeff Buster on Tue, 03/25/2008 - 15:38.
Like fine furniture, these new serpentine pipe bike racks are wrapped to prevent scratching. I thought the serpentine bike rack sculpture - complete with pillow cases - set against the Breuer linear-designed façade of the Cleveland Museum of Fine Arts addition was a nice juxtaposition.

Maple sap buckets in OhioSubmitted by Jeff Buster on Sat, 03/22/2008 - 19:24.
![]() The dirt lane was lined with 100+ year old sugar maple trees - all dripping a drop a second into these buckets. If I had brought decent audio equipment it would sound like heartbeats. ( categories: )
CUYAHOGA COUNTY COMMISSIONERS AND STAFF - THE NEO MEDCON TEAMSubmitted by Jeff Buster on Fri, 03/21/2008 - 13:31.
![]() Here are the individuals who negotiated the MEDCON deal in secret for us. They are the team that represented all of us here on Realneo and everyone else all across Cuyahoga County. THIS IS OUR TEAM! What do their physiognomies suggest? We never were able to see the other team, Mr. Chris Kennedy's team, because the game was played in secret. I wonder what the physiognomies of Mr. Kennedy and his team would have suggested to us?
