Mo Patents, Mo Money

Ohio’s economic woes can now be linked to something new; number of patents. Research has found that the states that produce the most patents also have the highest income. Ohio’s patents numbers have risen A LOT in the past decade or so, but still do not match stats from the 1930s. So what are all the new patents for? Flying cars? Robots? Teleporting?

“Industrial innovation is one of our strongest advantages.”

Oh, get back to me when you guys invent something cool. Thanks.

Separatist Prisoner Art in Cleveland

Separatists you say!? I thought that shit went out with the Civil War or at least Texas, but it seems everyone forgets about good old Puerto Rico, where the two convicted artists are from.

“the traveling exhibition is not without controversy. While many view Torres and Rivera as freedom fighters, others have labeled them as terrorists and members of Armed Forces for National Liberation (FALN).”

Here we go with the terrorist stuff again… Get the info about the exhibition here.

Can Someone Please Let People From Scene See Some Type of News Every Now and Then

Let’s start with this title, “Meet Lady Sovereign.” Are you serious? This girl has been getting bounced around on blogs for a over a year now, Pitchfork has had a perpetual hard on for her, and there is this little program called TRL on this little station called MTV where her video was number fucking one people! This seriously hurts my head, but let’s move on.

Wow, guys, wait to stay on top of the game, giving people in Cleveland a story on something they don’t know anything about at all. Article number 2, “Raising Joshua.” Here we get an article on raising on a child with autism, a noble enough effort, but did the people at Scene not notice “Saving Cyrus,” the Free Times cover story from LAST WEEK about treating a boy with autism!!!! Like I said before, wow.

At Least We Have Free Times

Yeah, these guys always dish out the good journalism, the real hardy, interesting, need to know kind of shit. Like Black Diamond, the black Neil Diamond impersonator who plays a Kent State bar. With weeklies like this it is no wonder we can’t invent flying cars.
