Social ConsciousnessFirst chickens in East Cleveland in a while?Submitted by Norm Roulet on Fri, 08/28/2009 - 01:49.
In both areas of Cleveland's West Side where I've lived, I knew there were chickens and roosters nearby (some I saw, and some I heard), but I haven't come across any fowl life on the East Side of Cleveland, or in East Cleveland. I wonder if there are any other chickens in my part of town? There certainly were chckens on every property back when this was farmland, 100+ years ago.
Erase the Black Face: Microsoft "Sanitizes" its Euro AdSubmitted by Eternity on Wed, 08/26/2009 - 14:44.
Max Eternity - It seems the anti-Black bias disseminated in the corporate [communications] sphere is virtually never-ending. Take this article featured today @ The Huffington Post bearing the title "Microsoft's Ad In Poland Photoshops Black Man, But Keeps Asian Man, White Woman."

Tomorrow is another daySubmitted by Norm Roulet on Tue, 08/25/2009 - 21:36.
The violence in our neighborhood in East Cleveland is definitely escalating, as the community is neglected, summer lingers on, and temperatures rise. This morning, East Cleveland Mayor Brewer spoke at a Neighborhood Stabalization Program Key Stakeholder meeting about how his administration has reduced crime, through doubling of the number of police officers in East Cleveland.
Clevelander Ann Trubek comments on "Growth in America's Dying Cities"Submitted by Eternity on Mon, 08/24/2009 - 22:29.
Anne Trubek for Good Magazine - Civic leaders and artists are coming up with some interesting ideas, and often the line between the two groups is blurred. The perfectly-named Unreal Estate Agency in Detroit is aimed at showcasing “new types of urban practices (architecturally, artistically, institutionally, everyday life, etc) that came into existence, creating a new value system in Detroit,” including helping people purchase and rehab a home for under $5,000.
Will Holder's Gitmo inquiry turn out to be a White House whitewash, covering up Bush's crimes?Submitted by Eternity on Mon, 08/24/2009 - 21:53.

Swine Flu Swindle?Submitted by Eternity on Mon, 08/24/2009 - 18:54.
Max Eternity - Remember Monkey Pox and Avian Bird Flu? And what was the name of that flesh eating bacteria that was supposed to sweep the nation a few years back. Oh yea I remember now--Ebola...remember that one? It's all too bizarre. And where do all these so-called diseases come from anyway? But never mind that, because I've got an even better question to ask you.

"If they follow the law they have no choice," Nadler said in an interview this past weekend.

Question of the Day: What Percentage of the Bat Boys Were Lead Poisoned as Babies?Submitted by Norm Roulet on Wed, 08/19/2009 - 00:47.
As I sat on my front porch, around 10 PM this evening, a group of about a dozen teenage boys could be seen and heard approaching from Euclid, shouting "where you from" for all to hear. One of the little g's from across the street (who recently broke into another neighbors' house) was walking toward them, but turned and ran back to his porch... until he recognized them, and he joined them. "Where you from?", they asked. "I'm from Wadena", they replied.

After years of decline, Cleveland aims to go greenSubmitted by Eternity on Sat, 08/15/2009 - 14:26.
CNBC - Orchards and vineyards may soon spring from the blight of thousands of abandoned buildings in Cleveland, a city struggling to rise from years of decline and home foreclosures. Once a proud manufacturing powerhouse, Cleveland has lost nearly 10 percent of its population since 2000, the fastest drop of any U.S. city except for hurricane-hit New Orleans.

Demanding the Black President show his papers, as if he were a runaway slaveSubmitted by Eternity on Wed, 08/12/2009 - 21:15.
Max Eternity - I have many criticisms of President Obama, even though I voted for him. But let me be clear, I voted for him not because I though he was going to save us from all the doom and gloom, but because I thought he had the most integrity of all the candidates that were (by June '08) left standing. Every president, and indeed every citizen, should be held accountable. However, the anti-black, hateful, vicious, character assisination that we are all witnessing right now...the slanderous, unsubstantiated attacks on Obama, go way, way, way beyond the pale.

Free Food Grows In ClevelandSubmitted by Norm Roulet on Sat, 08/08/2009 - 11:28.
While I was sitting behind Food On The Move, at St. Clair and East 140th, where a friend works, I noticed a pear tree in the lot next door, full of rippening pears. While the lot is well tended, and does not appear "vacant", the lone pear tree is the only occupant. And nobody seems to notice it is there, despite its bounty of free food. There are 100s of pears on the tree - in a market, they would be worth $100s. This lot could contain dozens of pear trees - perhaps 100s - producing $10,000s in income for the owners and those who tended them.

Cyberterrorism, Cyberstalking, Cyberharassment, Cyberbullying and Blackheart ClevelandSubmitted by Norm Roulet on Tue, 07/21/2009 - 23:40.
I believe the actions of "Blackheart Cleveland" as an association and some "members" individually consititute some variation of Cyberterrorism, Cyberstalking, Cyberharassment, and/or Cyberbullying. It appears Blackheart Cleveland exists to disrupt the business of REAL COOP and attack REALNEO members personally, to cause personal and financial harm to members. I believe this is illegal.
Harveys, Weahrys and Russos, it is time our families meetSubmitted by Norm Roulet on Tue, 07/21/2009 - 07:10.
Adam Harvey, Amy Weahry and Tim Russo, acting as Blackheart Cleveland, you have acted to cause me and my family harm. I believe you are acting with intent, and you claim to be acting as one. I have met Tim Russo and do not know that I have ever done anything to harm him. I have not met you other two, so consider you strangers. In your attack against me and my family, you make a series of inflammatory and inaccurate statements, that I challenge. I also challenge your social and ethical behavior, and I call you out personally to explain your actions, to my family.
An East Cleveland Ward 2 Reality Story. Don't Think This Insanity Will Stop In The Ghetto.Submitted by Norm Roulet on Sun, 07/19/2009 - 04:55.
Late on the 4th of July, there was a big fight in my neighborhood. Thankfully, I wasn't there. A friend who was there described it as around 100 people - some from East Cleveland and some from Cleveland - who just plain wanted to fight. No gang or drug issues - no girl in the middle - just a bunch of people so stressed and freaked out by life that they needed to pound somebody. On that night, those folks settled for pounding each other, and little harm was caused.
The Plan For Decades Has Clearly Included Casinos, Which Changes Everything For Real NEOSubmitted by Norm Roulet on Sun, 07/19/2009 - 03:49.
In observing what has been planned for major infrastructure and private developments and strategic investment initiatives in the Greater Cleveland Area, with a focus on high dollar, high roller plans for downtown Cleveland and especially the lake and river fronts, when there are no current economic indicators projecting high income growth in Cleveland or the region, my only conclusion is that the "smart money" has been riding for a long time on the easy money of driving casino gambling downtown, in a big way, in the near future.

Tale of Two ClevelandsSubmitted by Norm Roulet on Mon, 07/13/2009 - 01:02.
![]() There are certainly places in Cleveland where people very much enjoy our greatest natural resource, Lake Erie. To the East or West, rich or poor, it offers pleasures and potential, as filthy as it may be and shall remain. Do the Port Authority and their planners from New York City have a clue what is the potential of our Great Lake and lakefront? Have you seen any good plans? Are we doing anything close to what we should to protect the environment of Lake Erie? Is this the Bluest Lake possible, for this brightest greenest place?
