Adorable House for sale on Amazon Ave,
Just behind the Lloyd House
Hi Ellen,
Here's a little "verbiage" about my wonderful little house.
I am a regular (more or less) at the Salon and have decided to sell my wonderful, cozy little house to move on to Portland, Oregon where I'll be close to family. It's one block North of Ellen's on Amazon Ave. (The street of Clifton Meadows club and swimming pool). It's a 3 bedroom,brick house, built in 1931. It has a cottage feel, and has the wonderful old molding and trim of the houses of that period. There's a finished, walk out basement with sliding glass doors, a separate office, one and one half baths, great back yard with a many tiered deck- fun place for parties! You can see it at www.comey.com. Enter 320 Amazon Ave to get to it. I am very motivated to sell. Make an offer!

Dear Amazing Members of the Martin Luther King Coalition Chorale (formerly Voices of Freedom),
(And anyone who loves to sing gospel music)
(And anyone who loves Dr. King)
(And anyone who wants to improve intercommunity rrelations in Cinti.) ellen
MLK Chorale Back in Session !
(for nearly 20 years Cathy Roma, now with the help of Todd O’Neal has been leading the big gospel chorus for MLK Day. It’s a blast! Mixed race group, very grand leadership, wonderful spirit and music. All singers at any level, any age ... No audition. Come. Ellen.)
We have consolidated our practices, almost like when we first started 18 years ago. I believe we are entering our 19th season together.
We will gather on Tuesday, November 17 at 7:00 at the House of Joy. (church in College Hill on Hanilton Ave, used to be a movie theater. Parking lot behind the building, access off Cedar.)
I know you know--the social and cultural climate in which we live needs our vibrant voices raised in song for peace and for justice. We acknowledge the continuing influence Dr. Martin Luther King's words and deeds has on our lives. Bishop Todd O'Neal and I look forward to gathering once again as we keep hope alive with our attitude of yes we can.
Peace, love, and gratitude
Dr. Catherine Roma and Bishop Todd O'Neal
Media Bridges / Community Access Cable TV Threatened:
Dear Friends and Associates,
There have been a number of times in the past few years when I and Media Bridges have asked you to pick up a phone, to fax a letter, to call your representatives. Your willingness to do so has been a testament to the value of Media Bridges’ services to the Non-Profit community and our partnerships with organizations like yours.
Now, at what may be the most crucial moment for community media centers, Media Bridges is asking for your help. There is legislation right now, introduced in the House of Representatives that would reclaim what has been lost and preserve the integrity of Media Bridges and community access centers ACROSS THE WHOLE NATION. Without your help, the future of community access in Cincinnati is very much a question.
This legislation is called the Community Access Preservation Act (CAP), HR 3745, introduced by Representative from Wisconsin Tammy Baldwin. Media Bridges is asking that you and your nonprofit organization support this legislation <http://tammybaldwin.house.gov/PRArticle.aspx?NewsID=1588> in three distinct ways.
- Send a personal fax to your representatives. Go here <http://salsa.democracyinaction.org/o/862/t/9155/p/dia/action/public/?action_KEY=1556> , type in your zip code, tell congress who you are and why Community Access in Cincinnati is important to your organization, pop in your address and click “send”.
- Forward this link to your staff and your lists with a note as to why this is important.
- Take our cause to your Board and ask your organizational leaders to adopt a resolution (sample language attached) and submit it to congress.
Understand that protecting Media Bridges and Community Access with the passage of HR 3745 is the ONLY way to assure we will be around to serve your organization, and continue to help so many others.
As your organization considers whether to take steps in support of HR 3745, please consider the cost of doing nothing:
- public access channels for your community service messages will disappear-
- local voices advocating your organization are squeezed out of public discourse for lack of venue
- you must pay market rates for your nonprofit promotional videos.
The importance of nonprofits supporting this legislation on an organizational level is crucial, and will demonstrate to decision makers how many important agencies would be affected by the loss of community media centers and their services.
Please, take action now to preserve one of Cincinnati’s most valuable nonprofit resources.
If you have questions, contact the CS-ACM Public Policy Chair, Keith Aaron Gilbert, at keith@mediabridges.org
Also, in order to know our progress, please email me when you have contacted your representatives, and communicated our message with your board.
If any of you are uncertain about bringing this information to your board on your own, we would have no problem speaking with them directly, or even making a presentation to them about the importance of this coming national legislation.
Thank you,
Christian Appleby,
Nonprofit Services Coordinator

I’ve been giving money to Jennifer Bruner’s campaign for Senator from Ohio.
She’s the Ohio Sec’y of State that helped our election be honest in ‘08, and helped elect Obama.
My brother Gene met her a couple of years ago in NYC, and thought she was sensational. How great to get her in the Senate!
Consider giving her some money at: https://secure.actblue.com/contribute/page/jenniferbrunner?refcode=WomenCount

Repower America: new tool for Global Warming Campaign
So Peter Schanz videoed yours truly for “the Wall”. Maybe I’ll make the cut. Check it out. Ellen
<http://www.repoweramerica.org/page/m/396e8b6b/6feb0286/cd4d9db/19ba47e3/1871046639/VEsH/>
Dear Ellen,
When a clean energy economy finally becomes a reality in America, people will look back to the day that together, you and I launched The Repower America Wall. <http://www.repoweramerica.org/page/m/396e8b6b/6feb0286/cd4d9db/19ba47e2/1871046639/VEsE/>
The Wall is a place where literally thousands and thousands of people committed to a revolutionary new energy future for our nation and the world are coming together -- to express our hopes, share our resolve, and step up to a leadership role in building a grassroots movement for change like nothing America has ever seen. It's an opportunity for you to be part of the climate movement in a new way, in a way that takes us beyond ourselves.
By asking people from all over the country to share their thoughts and images on the Wall, we are fueling a campaign that brings together the power of national media with the strength and connection of on-the-ground organizing in a way that no one has ever done before. Your voice, and the voices of your friends, neighbors and colleagues, will become the language of our campaign on TV, in print, on billboards, online, and in brand new ways that you will help us invent as we create the Wall.
We know that the political will to transition America to a clean energy economy already exists. You are part of it. But now we must make sure our leaders know it too. The Wall will become our collective voice and thus transform the debate into action.
It's an ambitious strategy -- and it has to be.
Nothing short of every one of us joined together is needed to overcome the resistance of the powerful special interests blocking our path to a clean energy future, settling for the dangerous status quo.
But the time for politics is over. We have the power to force change in America.
Together, you and I will use the Wall as the foundation for all of our activism in the days and weeks ahead.
But first, I need you to meet me at the Wall.
Share your voice on The Repower America Wall right now. <http://www.repoweramerica.org/page/m/396e8b6b/6feb0286/cd4d9db/19ba47e2/1871046639/VEsF/>
<http://www.repoweramerica.org/page/m/396e8b6b/6feb0286/cd4d9db/19ba47e2/1871046639/VEsC/>
The Wall is a revolutionary approach to standing up for what we believe in -- for what our country needs. It combines the power of your voice with the force of a multi-media campaign, to build a collective call for change so loud it's undeniable.
The messages you and many thousands of others leave at the Wall are the tidal wave that will break on Washington, and put us on the path to victory.
Our grassroots organizers in the states will use the Wall -- your Wall -- as proof that all of our friends and neighbors are as committed to clean energy as we are -- that we are joined together in this commitment.
Content shared on the Wall will be used to create ads and other forms of communication that will go directly to your elected officials so that everywhere they look they will see the very people they represent, their constituents, calling for action now on clean energy -- in the local newspaper, on television, on billboards, on the radio, and on important local and national websites. There will be no place to hide. The Wall will be everywhere.
When our opponents throw roadblocks in our way, we'll gather at the Wall to fight back.
And when key decisions are at hand, we'll light up the Wall to let politicians who side with powerful interests against clean energy do so at their own peril.
The time to demand a clean energy future for America is now. But we must stand together. Unless we do everything in our power to make our voices heard, the change we seek will not happen.
Stand up and be a part of the generation that makes future generations proud -- join the movement and share your voice on The Repower America Wall today. <http://www.repoweramerica.org/page/m/396e8b6b/6feb0286/cd4d9db/19ba47e2/1871046639/VEsD/>
This is just the beginning. Next week we will take this campaign to the airwaves with new Repower America national television ads featuring real messages from the Wall. By acting now to share your own personal message on the Repower America Wall, you can insure that you were there at the start.
What you and I do today will determine everything about our country's future and the world our children will inherit. The time for action is right now and the cause deserves your best efforts.
If you want to win and insure our clean energy future, I'll see you at the Wall.
Together we can make this happen.
Thank you,
Al Gore
