J.R. Lind asks the $183 million question about what's holding up the long-awaited replacement for the Estes Kefauver Federal Courthouse.... An ugly legal tussle involving Murfreesboro nursing-home titan National Health Investors Inc. has an unexpectedly pretty outcome: a $44 million nonprofit foundation, mission TBA. E. Thomas Wood has the details.... Police burst into a Clarksville apartment, only to find two men dead from gunshot wounds. Neither has been identified.... Sad to say, the Colts still get to wear the adjective "unbeaten," and whoosh down the toilet goes our streak. But Chris Johnson still brings the heat.... Ousted Davidson County Republican Party vice-chair Matt Collins had it coming, says Kleinheider.... Liberadio(!) ponders what the recent turnovers in Tennessee politics mean for 2010--which for Democrats is starting to look like 2012.... The Department of Veterans Affairs honors local survivors on the 68th anniversary of a day that will live in infamy....

How about Dude, Where's my SouthComm? The rest of the media family appears to be having issues with their websites.

City Paper and NashPo sites are now live once more. Something bad apparently happened.

Does anyone else think that the reason we Congress has not approved funding of a new Federal Courthouse in Nashville has something to do with the fact that Cooper voted against a version of the stimulus bill that included funding for the Courthouse?

The reason for the lost courthouse money? - Cooper is hopelessly clueless.
"Even Cooper still doesn’t know why the Nashville project disappeared back in the spring. “A lot people don’t play fair,” he told The City Paper with a verbal shoulder shrug."
At least he's just clueless, not the essence of evil, like Lamar!.
