Fascinating look at the working world in much of America, and the ham-fisted effort to change it overnight.

I almost forgot what this was like. Leadership

[John Dearie @John_Dearie]

This is leadership -- appealing to the greatness and character of the American people.

Great to see Margaret Bernstein at Cleveland Reads! An excellent journalist, author, advocate, TV personality, & literacy activist, she celebrated the year-long finale, inspiring Clevelanders to read. The Library can always count on her diverse talents and commitment to literacy.

As a subscriber, I'm worried about @CrainsCleveland. Editor @McIntyreCrains and reporter @mjarboe greatly enhanced its coverage and made it a must read. The loss of both is huge loss for Crain's and a loss for journalism in CLE

Only in Cleveland (maybe in Budapest) "Members are all Hungarian youth...who speak, read and write fluent Hungarian."

No. 18 and rising. The Financial Times offers some good reasons why.

SOC: Our Men of the Match in the State Championship were none other than Bryce Ince-Lovelace and Colin Monroe! Bryce headed in the equalizer with 5-minutes remaining in regulation and Colin secured ring number 13 with his clutch saves in penalty kicks!

@reflog18 I like George Carlin's question, "Toledo windowbox?"

maddening out of town insight--
"It's ironic how the Twins have now swung into the position of Goliath to Cleveland's David from a spending perspective, adding to their advantages in talent and continuity. " https://t.co/r1TylHeh5X

Pittsburgh is rising in the tech economy, thanks largely to a university. "CMU’s expertise in computer science and robotics is helping to draw high-tech jobs" and revive city neighborhoods https://t.co/Z9tF0SaJW3
