Bill BennerIt seems like just yesterday that Matt Painter was playing for Purdue University basketball. Now he’s the Boilers’
coach, and he has emerged from
the long shadow of his mentor and predecessor, Gene Keady.

Mike HicksAt a time when we are desperate for science and math teachers, and when several big firms are laying off scientists, we should
be jumping at the chance to get them into the classroom.

Ken SkarbeckMaking investment decisions based on where a stock price has been in the past or betting on where it may go in the future
is futile and foolish unless the investor has determined the value of the stock.

Local advocates of high-speed rail are understandably disappointed that the Indiana Department of Transportation has dropped
the Chicago-Indianapolis-Cincinnati corridor from its application for federal rail funds, but the logic
behind doing so seems sound.

Mickey MaurerAs a participant in the Spirit and Place Festival that took place in Indianapolis Nov. 6-15, I was invited to share
a personal story of how an ordinary space was infused with special meaning for me. This is my story.

Morton MarcusNot every county in Indiana is like every other county. This is important to understand (particularly if you are a state
legislator) because we cannot assume one remedy is appropriate for all ills statewide.

Sorry my friends, in real life the facts tend to lead otherwise.

Chris KatterjohnWith apologies to the rock group King Crimson, who recorded a song in the late ’60s called “21st Century
Schizoid Man,” I’d like to draw attention to our city’s split personality. Good Indianapolis.
Bad Indianapolis.

Morton MarcusThe damage done by the recession is still with us, even if the recession itself has ended. But sufficient evidence is available
to suggest that the demon recession has left the nation’s economic body.

Peter Z. GrossmanIndiana officials appear to be working hard to get our share of the 5 million “green jobs” President
Obama says he’ll create. Sounds like a good idea, except for one problem: No one can really say just what
a green job is.

With Veterans Day upon us, we are reminded to thank a veteran for his or her service and to honor the memories of those
who fought for our country and did not come home. But in the business community, we can do more than that, all year long,
by bringing veterans into our organizations.

See, I told u Indyman and Dipsicle....this 8 days is overkill. It's barely worth a weekend....great job Tony George! Your dream has been fulfilled....he fans want the I r l back. Thats how good it was.....and that sucked.
I have been in training for a short time now but right off I can see that safety and quality are the number one issues, my experience as of late has been a positive one, the employees along with Jeff the plant manager and the operation supervisor as well as the engineers are a highly motivated group of people, what an asset for the area to have and for company's in need of a quality metal products.

While I understand the severity of their actions as well as everyones eagerness to hold them responsible for thier lost funds, these gentlemen did know how to make money. Dispite thier poor decisions over the ownership of Fair they had made several wise investments which paid them greatly. This proves they do have the potential to rebuild so they can repay. I do not feel they should live the life of luxuary but given an opportunity could they find ways of repaying the debts? They are doing nothing now but being a burden on tax payers. Just a thought!!!!!
You guys have some "interesting" comments to say the least. I hope you will call in and share those opinions starting June 1. I'm looking forward to having you on the air.
