Cleveland, OH. An Ohio man who killed his sister, her husband, and unborn niece was sentenced today in the Courtroom of Cuyahoga County Judge Rick Bell.

The Herman H. Fortmann Building at 207 Depot Street in Marthasville, Missouri (Warren County) is 120 years old. As old as this building is, it's attractive and fun to observe. On May 5, 2006, it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

Do you wonder what that nasty smell that has been cropping up all over Denver is?. I know. Denver has lots of nasty smells, including urine and feces in the alleys. There also is the unmistakable chemical smell of meth that turns some people’s stomachs. And of course, marijuana lingers in the air Denver-wide.

Clearwater, Florida: Although many people know Kirstie Alley from her time on the wildly popular sitcom Cheers, there was much more to her than that. Alley was also a mother, and, at least part-time, she was a Floridian living in a home in Clearwater, Florida, that she purchased from Lisa Marie Presley. (The home recently sold for just over $5 million after Alley's death.)

If you are a Floridian of a certain age, you might remember when shopping at a mall was seen as a fun way to spend a weekend. Perhaps your parents would drop you off to get a snack at Orange Julius. Or maybe you'd get some cash and were told to buy yourself some school clothes.
