History
XRay Magazine was founded on December 22, 2000 and published 40 issues. The final issue was released in August 2004.
The magazine was originally started, owned and operated by Stephen Novotni and Arie Vandenberg. Vandenberg left the project in 2002 and went on to produce the Cincinnati arts publication, Artspike.
Novotni continued to publish the magazine and focused the project on community participation in the media, liberal politics and alternative arts.
The magazine was closed due to mounting debt in 2004. Novotni made an attempt to carry on the XRay project and revive Cincinnati's first alternative newspaper, the Independent Eye, in 2005.
The new incarnation of the Eye was published online only through late 2005.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“Free from public debt, at peace with all the world, and with no complicated interests to consult in our intercourse with foreign powers, the present may be hailed as the epoch in our history the most favorable for the settlement of those principles in our domestic policy which shall be best calculated to give stability to our Republic and secure the blessings of freedom to our citizens.”
—Andrew Jackson (1767–1845)
“The history of men’s opposition to women’s emancipation is more interesting perhaps than the story of that emancipation itself.”
—Virginia Woolf (1882–1941)
“When we of the so-called better classes are scared as men were never scared in history at material ugliness and hardship; when we put off marriage until our house can be artistic, and quake at the thought of having a child without a bank-account and doomed to manual labor, it is time for thinking men to protest against so unmanly and irreligious a state of opinion.”
—William James (1842–1910)
