Watch This Week's "The State of Ohio" Online
Order Online : "The State of Ohio"
This week on "The State of Ohio": A twist in the campaign for governor -the GOP goes after the Democratic governor for his Wall Street connections. A new report says the state spends hundreds of millions of dollars locking up low level offenders for sentences that are too short for rehabilitation, but long enough to give them time to learn from experienced criminals. There's a huge budget deficit on the horizon, but the Department of Education has requested nearly a billion dollars more money in the next budget. The state school superintendent explains.
And the 2010 Ohio State Fair is open, and it brings a colossal honor for a former chief executive - all this week in "The State of Ohio".
 

Unusually-named network brings together artists and musicians from around Ohio.
By Fred Kight - August 4, 2008
Aguabear Legion may sound like some kind up club for a water toy, but it's not. It's a music and art collective that's based in Athens but has members from all over Ohio. Spokesman Brian Koscho says Aquabear Legion provides a network for creative people.



Koscho says Aquabear promotes music and art through collaboration, the collaboration of independent musicians and artists.


Aquabear's next event is a record-swap at Arts West in Athens on August 24th. Arts West is also the site of a monthly concert series. Recently, Aquabear Legion released a new compilation CD with music from 19 bands, including one from Cleveland, one from Columbus and another from Athens.
