And the phenomenon isn’t just happening at the high-school level. A little over half of district middle- and elementary-school students attend their neighborhood assigned school. In all, about 23,700 st..>> view originalObama should let next president nominate Scalia replacement ...
WASHINGTON — Ohio Gov. John Kasich said today that he is well-prepared to pick a Supreme Court justice who “doesn’t make law, but somebody who will interpret the law” if elected president, and reiterated his belief that a new justice will not be confirmed during the remainder of President Barack Obama’s presidency. “He’s going to send somebody. The Senate is going to do nothing,” Kasich told ABC’s This Week with George Stephanopoulos, adding that because of the presidential election, “people wi..>> view originalEmergency care changing in central Ohio
Big changes are in store for emergency medical care in central Ohio, but there’s debate over whether they will be of greater benefit to patients or the corporate bottom line.

WASHINGTON — Even as he celebrated his second-place finish in New Hampshire on Tuesday, Ohio Gov. John Kasich was looking ahead. In his speech to ebullient supporters on primary night, Kasich promised to do well in South Carolina. But he made it clear that his hopes lie in surviving until mid-March, when Michigan votes March 8 and Ohio votes March 15. From the beginning, the Kasich camp has worked to lower expectations, saying he won’t win South Carolina but hopes to peel away a few delegates, ..>> view originalRestaurant involved in machete attack might not open this week

When the snow clears this spring, Downtown commuters will have a new headache to deal with: the resurfacing of 3rd and 4th streets. The two biggest arteries into and out of Downtown will get a new course of asphalt starting in April, when the ground thaws and the asphalt factories start churning again.
