...longtime Springer supporter, I'm upset that the media aren't taking his candidacy as seriously as Hillary Clinton's. Hillary has never run for office; Springer was a five-term city councilman and a two-term mayor of Cincinnati who wrestled a bear during his tenure. And while I don't know Hillary's opinions other than on health care and how mental abuse leads to randiness, Springer drops science at the end of every episode. There isn't an issue he hasn't examined. Forget Social Security and child care. This guy has looked into...
...contemporary art has popped up to grapple with that challenge. Miami opened one in 1996, the same year Chicago expanded its version. Last year architect Will Bruder carved one out of a multiplex cinema in Scottsdale, Ariz., and MoCA Denver moved to a 10,000-sq.-ft. permanent home. Cincinnati recently announced that the dynamic female architect Zaha Hadid would design its contemporary arts center. And just last month the biggest of them all, Mass MoCA, opened in North Adams, Mass. Its name is doubly apt: housed in an abandoned factory that covers 13 acres (or about a third...

...Cincinnati goes, so goes the nation. That?s what pornographer Larry Flynt is trying to establish at his latest trial, which opened in the southern Ohio city on Monday. Flynt and his brother Jimmy are charged with violating local obscenity laws, some of the most stringent in the country, by selling sexually explict videos to a 14-year-old at their local Hustler Magazine and Gifts store. Flynt who?s been busy baiting Cincinnati?s smut-shunning political establishment for years, wants to do nothing less in the current case than "to smash the current legal definition of obscenity, which...
...Because of Internet and satellite communications, communities are getting bigger," says Stein, "and the concept of community standards is disappearing." If people in Cincinnati, or anywhere else in the country, can log on to porn web sites from anywhere else in the world, how can local standards exist, let alone be defined, for any medium? This is the argument Flynt wants to press and win at his trial, and thereby "turn himself from smut peddler to First Amendment statesman," says Stein. But Flynt may not get his chance. "The prosecutors in this case were smart," says Stein. "They sent underage...
