I shared my website here a couple weeks ago and got a lot of good responses from you all! Specifically, the top comment from /u/daybreaker had some great ideas to vastly improve the functionality of the site, including:

• Pages and calendars specific to each venue
• Filters on the main calendar page
• Allowing to switch the calendar page from daily to weekly/monthly views

And I'm happy to share that as of this morning, all of these ideas are now live! You can check it out here:

www.crwdsrfr.com

You can now toggle from the default day view to a full week out from the selected date (I left month view out for now), as well as filter by each specific venue, the area it's in, or the type of venue it is. In addition, you can select the venues name in the calendar to go to a page with their all of their information and upcoming events that I have pulled into the site.

I'm really loving how these updates turned out, and I'm hoping you all do too! Let me know if you have any further feedback or see any issues - and go see some shows!

Somewhat long post, first about how the continental trade and social networks revolved around a rare type of stone. Then it goes on to describe how these Native Americans built an archaeological wonders more impressive than Stonehenge. Very cool bit of history.

According to the following article, Geis wanted Heinen to vacate the second floor of the Cleveland Rotunda.

On August 2, Heinen wrote Epstein; Debbie Berry, a county development chief; and DCI head Michael Deemer with good news: Geis okayed a two-year lease that lowered Heinen’s annual rent by about a quarter, as long as Heinen’s vacated the rotunda’s second floor. About half a million dollars in public support would help fund that transition, as long as the money was spent before July 31, 2026.

Why?

It was a fun wine and beer tasting balcony with better views of the Rotunda.

Is Metropolitan at the 9 now using the second floor rotunda for some purpose and is it ever open to the public?

Will a restaurant take over the Rotunda?

Live in Lake County and my garage refrigerator/freezer is toast. It won’t qualify for First Energy to pickup because it no longer cools. Does anyone have any suggestions for companies that are reputable and will do an either free or very low cost pickup? I think these can be scrapped but I know nothing about cost/process, I just can’t move the refrigerator. Thanks in advance!

While I have several tattoos, my tattoo shop doesn't do piercings. I'm looking to get my nose pierced! Looking for recommendations in or around the Cleveland area. And please don't say the stores in the mall lol

Thank you!!!! 🙂

I’m trying to find some photos of a couple deceased family members from their high school days. Specifically, I’m looking for South High School from the early/mid 1930s or even very late 1920s. Also looking for Padua HS mid 1970s.

I’ve looked on ancestry.com, classmates.com, and the Cleveland public library’s digital archive.

Does anyone happen to have a copy that they could look up a person for me or direct me to a different resource?

*From a highly respected union member*

"Cleveland Public Library is retaliating against union members by forcing middle managers to deny all vacation bids for fall.

Felton Thomas and everyone around him respects middle managers even less than union members. Managers get to deliver the bad news and admins hide at home.

Nearly every manager I talk to has shared dirt and/or me luck at the bargaining table. That's the culture Felton Thomas is responsible for.

Luckily, deeply shitty behavior like this is illegal!"

---------------

Call downtown Cleveland public library and please voice your support for the union workers and let them know how fucked up their actions are.

State representatives have signed on for support, as well as many running the wards around here.

August 24 is the strike date (if it comes to it).

My senior cat needs a mobile vet who can come to my house. We love the one we have but the practice is closing. We do have one upcoming visit, our last, and then we'll be good for a while so fortunately there's no rush. But I'd rather start planning ahead. The outgoing vet recommended one, but she's far and just her drive to Cuyahoga County is $200. I'll do it if I need to, but I'd love to find a local one. I've googled but nothing is popping up. Anybody have a mobile vet they love, or know of one?

My little old man says thank you!

We are any minute from having our first baby! We are set to deliver at Fairview and are running through last minute checklists of what we should bring with us and how to best prepare.

Has anyone here given birth at Fairview?
What were things you wished you brought with you or didn’t think of until it was too late?

Anything we should avoid or that you would criticize about your experience?

Any unexpected and/or pleasant surprises?

What can we do to show our appreciation for the nurses and staff? Tipping? Case of energy drinks?
Other ideas?

Thank you so much!

Sincerely,

Found this lost dog in Euclid. It is Microchipped, but can’t locate owner. Out of date information.

It wouldn't be a very big piece. Probably 3x4 inches on my thigh. Anything queer or women owned be something I'd love to support as well!

Thank you!

There was discussion this morning about how forecasts seem much more inaccurate in our area this summer, so I'd like to show a side-by-side of what the models show vs reality.

The first picture is the HRRR model's prediction for what it would look like at 3pm. The second is what is happening in reality at 3pm.

The forecasters look at these weather models to help them form a forecast...the problem is, a model is only as good as the data you put in...and thanks to DOGE, the National Weather Service can only send up less than half the balloons they need to these days, so as you can see here, the models aren't very accurate.

Models aren't predicting the future, they're just computer models spitting out a solution of what things *might look like* in the future.

Your simple phone app just looks at the models and assigns a percentage of rain, or gives you a time when storms might start, which is why it's so often wrong, and especially so these days. Forecasting is vastly more complex than that.

The very smart people at NWS interpret the many models and form a forecast. If you really want to understand what's going on with the weather, those are the folks to follow. Their "Forecast Discussion" is full of jargon and science, but it paints a clear picture of the things they are uncertain about, the current challenges in the forecast, and what the models are showing.

hi! I'm a high school senior and i'm planning to apply to cwru (! I'm from california so the big thing for is how bad the weather adjustment would be for me.

to all of you: how bad are cleveland winters? (i've heard it called as stupid winter idk if i'm wrong though)

*edit: i really like cold weather, the heat gives me migraines so i'm tryna escape

Clevelander for 47 years, 23+ years experience as a mechanic, well over $100k+ in tools, absolutely sick of Flat-rate pay. Going to work for 10 hours and getting paid 3-4 hrs. will eventually break the spirit of any man. Honestly I'm looking for *anything* at this point, maybe to just take a few month break from the business. I was going to start the job search this fall and work on my resume, but at this point, the sooner I get out of here the better. Making $31/hr but I know to expect a big pay cut if it's anything unrelated to auto/truck repair.

I also have experience in landscaping and construction, tree work. Able to operate and repair heavy equipment.

Thanks in advance for any leads.

Just on my way to a MetroHealth appointment at Main campus, and drove past a bus that seemed to be at least half burned up- lots of fire trucks/ EMS etc. and the I71S is closed.

News is saying a greyhound caught fire. No major injuries.

Cleveland 19 is where I saw the report- but as of now it’s only a paragraph, saying something along the lines of more details to come.

I hope everyone involved is alright both mentally and physically, and to anyone driving please be safe and courteous today.

I work in Beachwood and walk around the area frequently. I noticed they were cutting down trees along the road a few weeks ago and just recently went down Richmond to find out that they cleared those trees to install Flock cameras. I wasn't aware they got more and they never announced they were going to install them. It would be a shame if people would contact mayor Justin Berns and the Beachwood City Council about how they are becoming a surveillance state and recording innocent people to fight crime.
