It's time once again for the Toledo Craftsman's Guild's free holiday craft show. Each year new and repeat crafters sell their holiday and gift wares at this even and admission is free. It's a great way to see some of the talent of Toledo area residents and buy some unique gift items. It's being held again at the Lucas County Recreation Center on Key Street in Maumee, Ohio.

And I disagree with him…. In this week’s Sojourner’s Truth, Jack Ford discusses the State School Board elections and makes his recommendation. While I’m glad to see the topic of this opening for the State School Board discussed, I’m disappointed that our former Mayor doesn’t even mention any other of the candidates. more

Marcy Kaptur spoke first with quite a bit of applause, then there were two speakers, one was Jacob Smith who was in the military and spent 14 months in Baghdad. He is now attending BGSU Firelands and was very well received by the crowd. I don’t have the spelling of name of the next speaker but she was a former UAW worker who gave a very passionate speech on what our area has gone thru as far as

From the Mark Dansack for District 46 Campaign: Mark Dansack Stands for Change in Ohio, Mark Wagoner protects the status quo. Beginning October 31, Mark Dansack will be recapping over the next several days the reasons why residents of District 46 will be better served by electing a voice for positive change in Ohio rather than his opponent, who embraces the present “pay to play” dynamics now

As an update to the below, Joshua Boak’s article in the Toledo Blade is a nice summary of last night’s debate and includes some new information. First I’d like to thank the Toledo Public Library, they did an excellent job once again with a huge special thanks to Undrea M.

I’ve gotten several emails on the settlement that was reached concerning the questions related to providing Identification for those voting by Absentee Ballot and those voting early in person. Today’s Toledo Blade provides the basic information on this settlement. Here in Lucas County though there appears to be a very huge issue that no one is talking about. As most of you know I recently

The latest ad that 13-ABC and the Toledo Blade decided to focus on was from the Lucas County Commissioner’s Race. The Sarantou ad with the “apple doesnt fall far from the tree” meme was recently released. Yet there are several ads out there that have ran of longer duration that I believe are just as negative or not more so that did not receive the attention of either 13-ABC or the Toledo Blade.

In switching over to the new Glass City Jungle it's going to take a few days for the feed from Lefty Blogs and Blog Net News Ohio to change over to the new link, which means anything posted over on the new site doesn't show up in the feeds. What I'm going to do as a transitional stage is post the titles to the posts and then provide a link to the new place rather than duplicate the posts here.

The Lourdes Santiago for Toledo City Council campaign. Yesterday two campaign volunteers from the Lourdes Santiago for Toledo City Council campaign stopped by to give me a card/flyer.

As you can tell I didn't blog here yesterday, but I did read the story in yesterday's Toledo Blade and the other article the day before. I don't think this will be a large enough issue that would make people who were already considering voting for Anita Lopez for Lucas County Auditor to decide against it but depending upon the numbers of undecideds, it's possible this could have an influence on

I saw this last night on WTOL and meant to post it: TOLEDO -- Instant citations are creating instant anger in Toledo. It doesn't matter whether you've got huge piles of trash sitting in front of your home, or just one little box -- if it's there too early, you're going to get a $75 ticket from the city.

Okay, the post title is a paradoy of the Issue 3 catch phrase, but as today's Toledo Blade points out, both the Tobacco Industry and the Gambling Interests have put a lot of money into trying to sway voters into believing what they are promoting: Seven racetracks, a pair of Cleveland developers, and a handful of economic development groups raised $17 million as of Oct. 20 toward their effort to
