Our raccoon piece about a week back got a former Portlander, now in Texas, talking on his own blog about his own raccoon experiences in the Rose City. Now, in his followup comments to his blog post, he's written some thought-provoking words about Portlandia generally. You may disagree with the sentiments expressed, but you must admit the fellow does have a way with words: A few months back, I realized...

Is FOX News taking a green outlook? In a piece aired on June 20th on the normally conservative station, Neil Cavuto grills Mayor Rudy Clay of Gary, Indiana on his vehicle choice. Watch: While Cavuto does put an emphasis on "the tax-payers" rather than the Earth taking the brunt of Mayor Clay's actions, he does mention hybrids as an alternative to the H3. Mayor Clay attempts to make the point that he...

Some news of late from Gary, Indiana where Don Barden also runs a casino. We are being summoned in some litigation there in what appears to be a dispute between the city and casino over some revenues. It's a bit hard to understand the full context, but you can read more in: City: Barden using its money in Pittsburgh by Job Seidel of the Gary Post-Tribune . and it seems to be just a coincidence... but...

You're probably guessing a lot in Tel Aviv after a hezbollah rocket? Nope. The aftermath of a Baghdad car bomb? Negative. The future home to a casino in Gary Indiana? Close but not quite. This is a commercial real estate development managed by "progressives". In this case, the University of Cincinnati. That same University who just extracted 10's of millions of dollars from the state to build new buildings...

In the game of expectation management, Obama camp won hands down. Several hours after Sen. Obama’s victory [...]

I wrote some thoughts last month about how we choose to communicate URLs to people — what's essential to getting the message across, what's not, and what may be changing with time. Tonight, while waiting for Gary Indiana to finally give the Clinton campaign the coup de grâce (Updated: OK, not quite, but really close), I [...]

As the fate of a nail-biter Indiana primary - and possibly the course of the Democratic race - hung on his city, Gary Mayor Rudy Clay said just now that it might take a while yet to finish counting the vote in Lake County, which includes Gary, and said Tuesday night his city had turned out so overwhelmingly for Barack Obama that it might just be enough to close the gap with Hillary Rodham Clinton....

Here's an open thread on tonight's election results. My thoughts are expressed in the title. Shame on the Mayor of Gary, Indiana for withholding the vote results until after midnight, ET. Class Act of the night: Mayor Tom McDermott of Hammond, Indiana. CNN says seniors brought it home for Hillary all by themselves in Indiana. 69% of them voted for her. They made the difference, and they vote in much...
