 | The NFL's family tree Terry Pluto says the key to winning in the NFL is all about family ties
In the NFL, the key to winning is in a team’s so-called family tree. And it plays out much like a Shakespearean tragedy. NFL teams align themselves with one of two families who have very different styles of play. The Cleveland Browns have the “father” of one of those families at its helm -- team President Mike Holmgren. But, after two seasons, they’ve had little success. WKSU commentator Terry Pluto talks with Amanda Rabinowitz about the family structure and how the Browns plan to make it work.

| Sediment dumping ground opens as a nature preserve Dike 14 opened today as the Cleveland Lakefront Natural Preserve
A former dumping site for sediment dredged from Lake Erie is open today as a wildlife habitat.
Dike 14, now called the Cleveland Lakefront Nature Preserve is an 88-acre patch of land east of Cleveland. The Cleveland-Cuyahoga County Port Authority took over the property and has been working for several years to allow visitors to use the site as a wildlife retreat.
Harvey Webster is with Cleveland Museum of Natural History. He says he hopes area schools will use the new preserve as a “land lab” for science classes. He says the park may also bring some additional income into the city from what he calls an eclectic group of consumers.

May 4th Remembered
On May 4th, 1970, Ohio National Guard troops opened fire on Kent State students protesting the invasion of Cambodia, the escalation of the Vietnam War - and the presence of the guard on campus.
Four students died; nine were wounded.
The scene became an icon for the Baby Boom generation. And this year, it was added to the National Register of Historic Places, as a site that contributed significantly to the understanding of the nation's history and culture.
But for many, the history is not national. It's personal. And while it's fading out of many textbooks and memories, it's fresh in the lives of many others. WKSU is taking a look at the personal stories and larger lessons that grew from May 4, 1970.
