Bear with me - this Alex Trebek @Jeopardy story is worth it:

Be prepared to wait: It's taking 7+ months for some of Ohio's unclaimed funds to be processed... thanks to a surge in interest last year. news5cleveland.com/news/local-new… @WEWS

Also my alma mater 💁🏻‍♀️ @WalshJesuit

Last year was rough for federal employees. Buyouts (deferred resignation), early retirement and contracts terminated happened across all agencies. We finally know what that looked like at Cleveland's NASA Glenn Research Center --- roughly 611 people gone news5cleveland.com/news/local-new…

If you prefer, here's the full, unfiltered conversation with @NASAAdmin: youtube.com/watch?v=DFHphU… @NASAglenn @NASA @NASAArtemis

During his visit to @NASAglenn, @NASAAdmin talked about the return to the moon (and building a base there), going to Mars (in our lifetime!), and how crucial NASA Glenn's role in propulsion and nuclear power are in making that happen. news5cleveland.com/news/local-new…

@mbruning81 I still can’t believe you got booked on “Hot Ones.”

ODOT public information officers are currently booked for almost 70 live hits on radio/TV stations across the state between now and Monday. Incredible. #ODOTwinter

This is accurate.

Cuyahoga County is poised to become the first county in the nation to install two-factor authentication for its recorded documents, in an effort to prevent fraudulent property transfers. It's an attempt to fight a problem @ClayLePard has been digging into. news5cleveland.com/news/local-new…

@DonnyMac1 Great question! Cuyahoga Co has similar property alerts ..but this would be the first instance where you would receive an alert *before* a property is transferred (as opposed to getting an alert after) and have the ability to immediately stop it before it happens.

@ClayLePard Not sure if this is the exact same thing you reported on, but Maricopa County in Arizona has had this property alert for a couple of years. So was Cuyahoga County really the first? recorder.maricopa.gov/recording/titl…

Demolition is scheduled to start today at a long-vacant former tuberculosis hospital in Stark County - aided by a state grant for asbestos abatement, razing buildings and site clean-up. The property is set to become a park. via @ClayLePard news5cleveland.com/news/local-new…

I'd never thought I'd say this but...thank you, Boston.

Northeast Ohio’s NASA Glenn Research Center has been selected to oversee a major space project that could bring nuclear energy to the moon, potentially involving billions of dollars in funding. @ClayLePard has the details. news5cleveland.com/news/local-new…

There are conversations that just stick with you -- and @goldiebug was such a joy to talk with... can't wait to see her finish this!

State lawmakers’ decision to take unclaimed funds to provide a $600 million grant for a new Cleveland Browns stadium opened the floodgates. Ohio’s Division of Unclaimed Funds is seeing a record level of claims. @ClayLePard has the details. news5cleveland.com/news/unclaimed…

But claiming that money in Ohio isn’t always so simple - even when the rightful owner is a local fire department (or another public-sector entity). "I think the Ohio unclaimed fund system needs some attention," one assistant fire chief tells @ClayLePard. news5cleveland.com/news/unclaimed…

We also talked with the head of unclaimed funds about what happened after the legislature announced plans in June to use $600 million to fund a new @Browns stadium. Turns out —- a LOT of you filed claims after that. How much? Check it out here: news5cleveland.com/news/unclaimed…

It’s not just Ohioans with unclaimed funds - entities like municipalities, police and fire departments do as well. And they say they’ve encountered difficult hurdles claiming their share of the states $4.9 billion in unclaimed funds. news5cleveland.com/news/unclaimed…

As lawmakers consider allowing online casinos in Ohio, one Michigan woman is reflecting on how she lost it all ($2 million!) from playing blackjack on her phone. news5cleveland.com/news/local-new…

@MikeHoldenNews @cedarpoint @WEWS @mjarboe But you didn’t swear —- and that’s better than most of us would do!

@ClayLePard @cedarpoint @WEWS @mjarboe I studied the bios and page and got through 7 of the 34 on air peeps. 🤣 That’s a failing grade!

Here we gooo. @cedarpoint’s highly anticipated #SirensCurse opens THIS WEEKEND. Fastest, tallest, longest VERT COASTER in North America. And your boy is riding it this a.m… WATCH on @WEWS Good Morning #Cleveland
