Order Online : "The State of Ohio"
This week on "The State of Ohio": State lawmakers consider what they can do in the wake of the horrible and yet miraculous escape story out of Cleveland involving three women held prisoner in a house for a decade. New data shows more than half of all violent crimes are committed by a very small numbers of offenders. Lawmakers are now working to target that tiny group. And more thoughts on legislation that would dramatically change rules on unions in Ohio.

The Inventors Hall introduced its 2007 inductees this morning at a press conference in Washington DC. This year's group includes sixteen inventors, seven of whom are still living. One is from Ohio. Their inventions include the soft contact lens, the automobile airbag, and the computer disc drive. Mark Urycki of WCPN in Cleveland reports.
