Gregory said:
Over the next three years, the vast sea of concrete parking lots at Broadway Commons will be transformed into a $346 million casino development with up to 5,000 slot machines and tables full of gamblers. But whether the casino lives up to those economic promises will depend on decisions made in the next few months, by developers, architects and city officials.

Before the U.S. Census Bureau can count everyone in the country, it first has to count every mailbox. And if they missed yours, odds are you won't get a form - and won't be counted. That's why some local governments are working feverishly this month - four months before census forms will be mailed out - to meet federal deadlines for challenging the Census Bureau's near-final lists of addresses.

The average age of a southwestern Ohio voter in last year's presidential election was 50. In local elections two years ago, it was about 60. It's no secret that turnout is much lower in these "off-year" elections. But an Enquirer analysis of local voting and census data finds that the composition of the electorate is also very different: Voters tend to be older, whiter and more suburban than those in even-numbered years.

Oprah Winfrey's name appears on White House visitor logs twice - but Ohio Gov. Ted Strickland appears only once. And tennis player Serena Williams has been to the presidential mansion three times in the months after Barack Obama's election - more than Cincinnati Mayor Mark Mallory. That's according to White House visitor logs just released in a move the Obama administration calls "transparency like you've never seen before."
