Truth hasn't changed
March 9, 2013
Peter Rusthoven’s [Feb. 18 ] column “‘Relevance’ is irrelevant” could not have been more on
point. The world view, as seen through liberal media, is that not just the Roman Catholic Church but Christianity in general
needs to “become more relevant to an increasingly secular world.
MoreSequestration piece spot-on
March 9, 2013
While I don’t always agree with [Greg Morris], he was spot on with this [Feb. 25] column. Excellent job on this huge issue
for the future of our America.

MoreTake the federal money
March 9, 2013
There are good reasons to feel optimistic about the changes taking place as a result of health care reform. More people will
have access to insurance through health insurance marketplaces, and many will be able to take advantage of tax credits to
afford this new coverage.
MoreODLE: Gov. Pence, please keep my money
March 2, 2013
Samuel L. Odle / Special to IBJMost days I wish the government would take less of my money and let me use it to save, invest, donate or just spend frivolously.
I figure I earned this money, it’s mine and I deserve to keep it, right?
MoreSIMPSON: 'Our hopes and dreams are bound together'
March 2, 2013
Vi Simpson / Special to IBJDaily, I see politicians arguing, reciting their talking points, without facts. I hear political pundits repeating those talking
points, urging on the political rhetoric.
MoreEDITORIAL: Good choice for United Way
March 2, 2013
IBJ StaffWhen the longtime CEO of United Way of Central Indiana last year announced her plans to retire, the not-for-profit’s
board embarked on a search for a seasoned executive with deep community ties. They found both in Ann D. Murtlow.
MoreMAURER: Big Q's lofty mission didn't involve flying
March 2, 2013
Mickey MaurerQuentin Paige Smith died in January at age 94. If you didn’t know the Big Q, you missed a hell of a man—his own
man—unbowed by the evil racism of the pre-Civil Rights era. I wrote his biography for my book “19 Stars of Indiana—Exceptional
Hoosier Men,” and now I can tell you the rest of that story.
MoreRUSTHOVEN: The sky really isn’t falling
March 2, 2013
Peter J. Rusthoven / Special to IBJIf our president is right—and who doubts a word he utters?—writing this is wasting time, as it is scheduled for
publication that day after the “sequester” takes effect and life comes to an end. But on the off chance the world
survives, let’s soldier on for the fraction of readers who might not always find this column a waste of time.
MoreHOLLENBERG: Deregulation has gone too far
March 2, 2013
Cindy A. Hollenberg / Special to IBJAs an environmental policy analyst, the governor’s ordering of a moratorium on environmental regulation concerns me.
It should also concern Indiana residents and businesses.
MoreHICKS: Economic evolution requires ongoing flexibility
March 2, 2013
Mike HicksI am often asked some version of the question, “Can we really survive becoming a service economy—won’t our
loss of manufacturing jobs spell doom for our country?” The answer is, “No.”
MoreKIM: Mutual fund choices influenced by conflicts
March 2, 2013
Mickey KimHave you ever wondered how and why the mutual funds your brokerage firm recommends or those that appear on your 401(k) plan’s
menu of investment options were chosen?
MoreRACE: It's time to rediscover Kessler's park and boulevard system
March 2, 2013
Bruce Race / Special to IBJGeorge Kessler’s 1908 vision was the foundation for Indianapolis’ neighborhood building and metropolitan-park
planning. The nearly 3,500-acre Kessler legacy is on the National Register of Historic Places.
MoreFEIGENBAUM: Battles yet to be fought over handful of divisive bills
March 2, 2013
Ed FeigenbaumWe’ve made it halfway through the 2013 legislative session with much less in the way of figurative fisticuffs than in
the last several sessions—for which the participants and observers seem grateful.
MoreCOTA: Online Smartz helpful in keeping kids cyber safe
March 2, 2013
Jim CotaIf your privacy settings aren’t carefully controlled, you’re not only potentially exposing yourself, but also your friends.
BENNER: Bird’s faith in Lance Stephenson now looks well-placed
March 2, 2013
Bill BennerI guarantee he’s closely watching the team he assembled and has a trained eye on the 22-year-old.
MoreMADISON: Tax-cut promises make cheap politics
March 2, 2013
James H. Madison / Special to IBJPromising to cut taxes is not political leadership. It’s cheap and easy.
MoreDon't subsidize Indianapolis Motor Speedway
March 2, 2013
I seriously question the advisability of our state, city or county providing monetary support to sports organizations, and
certainly Indianapolis Motor Speedway [Feb. 18].
MoreHempstead needs a grip
March 2, 2013
I surely hope Sarah Hempstead [Feb. 25] was joking when she suggested we ask anybody about Indianapolis—inferring, I
would guess, a blank stare.
MoreLEIGHTY: Forgo the tax cut and finish I-69
March 2, 2013
Hilary Leighty / Special to IBJArguably one of the most passionate and polarizing debates in the General Assembly this session is the allocation of the transportation
budget. Gov. Mike Pence and many legislators agree that money should be spent on repairing deteriorating roads and constructing
new highways.
MorePut citizens first
March 2, 2013
Are there not any really decent people to run for Congress [Maurer column, Feb. 18]? Too many of these candidates have the
ability to speak smoothly, show an engaging personality and make a good impression. The real essence of their character is
not revealed until they are caught taking advantage of their slick-lip shenanigans.
MoreSADLER: Put a justice complex on the docket
March 2, 2013
Doris Anne Sadler / Special to IBJSomething important is missing on planning desks of Indianapolis leaders as they contemplate mass transit, waterworks and
other big-ticket projects. It is well past time for a strategy for a new criminal justice complex outside of downtown.
MoreSHELLA: Nonvoters are real Hoosier citizens, too
March 2, 2013
Jim Shella / Special to IBJDo the politicians care what nonvoters think? House Speaker Brian Bosma recently took issue with the WISH-TV/Ball State Hoosier
Survey because, he said, it wasn’t a voter poll. When challenged, he said that he cares what everybody thinks, but the
message he delivered was that the opinions of voters matter more than those of adults who don’t get to the polls.
MoreSOUDER: Legislature reflects GOP dilemmas
March 2, 2013
Mark Souder / Special to IBJGov. Mike Pence doesn’t just want a tax cut for Hoosiers. A tax cut was foundational to his campaign and his philosophy
of conservatism: Growth comes faster when individuals and corporations spend their own money, because it is more productive
(leveraged better), more diversely spread (less likely to be bet on winners and losers), and more reflective of actual markets.
MoreMorris column hit home
March 2, 2013
I enjoyed Greg Morris’ [Feb. 25] column. However, I wish he had taken it one step further to explain the absurdity of
these so called “sequestration” cuts as they relate to baseline budgeting.
MoreDAVIS: So far, so good at the Legislature
March 2, 2013
Kathy Davis / Special to IBJI had a happy Valentine’s Day visiting with members of the General Assembly.

Yep, the haters are trying to make good news bad. I guess it is hard to get people to believe the series is dying when they are gaining new sponsors.
David Copperfield! I remember watching his specials on TV when I was little.
Don't forget this is next to an MMA gym, a pawn shop, and some abandoned spaces.
Good project for Zionsville - A group who has owned the property for many years has waited and worked patiently to bring highest and best use development to a major corridor, and mix that in with the great downtown you have. Win Win. All the Best to Pittman Partners and Zionsville.
