 <title>Abbott, Roman &amp; Sam Lecture about Government Spending? Some Joke</title>
 <link>http://www.realneo.org/blog/roldo/abbott-roman-sam-lecture-about-government-spending-some-joke</link>
 <description>&lt;p &gt;&lt;b &gt;You have to laugh so you don&amp;rsquo;t cry.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p &gt;I haven&amp;rsquo;t studied the report at all but the announcement in the morning paper quoting Dave Abbott, Joe Roman and Sam &amp;ldquo;Give Me More&amp;rdquo; Miller on big spending in Cuyahoga County is really amusing. Laughable. Absurd.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

 <title> A Star is Born: Community Transformation at the Nexus of Social and Environmental Justice</title>
 <link>http://www.realneo.org/blog/sudhir-kade/a-star-is-born-community-transformation-at-the-nexus-of-social-and-environmental-justice</link>
 <description>&lt;p &gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p &gt;Back in January of 2007&lt;a href=&quot;node/3203&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt; I first proposed&lt;/a&gt; the application of innovative, sustainably powered aquaponics in tandem with organic farming to uplift underprivileged communities and resolve urban blight.&amp;nbsp; East Cleveland,&amp;nbsp;where we have worked for years now,&amp;nbsp;to facilitate positive change, remains a tremendous opportunity for Urban&amp;nbsp;aquaponics integration, especially given the extraordinary connections falling into place recently toward the Star Neighborhood Vision.&amp;nbsp; A two-year quest to secure financially viable and socially redeeming use for the old Hough Bakeries building has&amp;nbsp;finally manifested, through trial and tribulation, with the likely emergence of multiple schools at the Star Village, as it is now called,&amp;nbsp;on Lakeview in East Cleveland.&amp;nbsp; REALNEO and Star Neighborhood Development founder Norm Roulet deserves kudos for perservering through political turbulence and facilitating the key connections to make this work.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;</description>
