Good morning, Dublin. Summer in Columbus just got a whole lot spicier. While the humidity might have you sweating, it's nothing compared to what awaits at local wing spots like Mean Mug's aptly named "Mistress Pain" or The Thurman Cafe's "Extreme" sauce, boasting a scorching 183,000 BTUs. These five heat-packed destinations offer the perfect challenge for those brave enough to test their taste bud tolerance during the dog days of summer.
Meanwhile, Ohio construction workers are benefiting from a digital upgrade as the state launches a new prevailing wage rate system, bringing transparency to publicly funded projects. And if you're curious about the stories behind Dublin's historic buildings, look no further than Doreen Uhas Sauer, the beloved educator who's earned the title of "Columbus' history teacher." From classroom to walking tours, she continues to preserve our community's past while inspiring former students like City Council President Shannon Hardin.

💰 Ohio unveils digital system to ensure fair pay for construction workers. The new prevailing wage rate system, launched by the Ohio Department of Commerce, allows public access to wage information by occupation and jurisdiction across the state. Officials call it "a significant step forward in transparency and fairness" for workers on publicly funded construction projects. The system ensures contractors pay standardized rates set by the state government. Interested users must register for an OHID account to access the wage data.
