Editorial
EDITORIAL: Electric-car gang is ahead of pack
July 10, 2010
IBJ StaffThe drive to make central Indiana a leader in the use of electric vehicles is smart—regardless of where the money comes
from.
MoreEDITORIAL: New gun, booze laws make no sense
July 3, 2010
IBJ StaffBusinesses no longer can prohibit their employees from
bringing firearms to work, and everyone buying alcohol must show ID. Say what?
MoreEDITORIAL: Circle Centre worth watching
June 26, 2010
IBJ StaffCity government brought Circle Centre into this world. It makes sense, then, that city government is involved in positioning
it for the future.
MoreEDITORIAL: Improvement needed, but value of statistics in education limited
June 19, 2010
IBJ StaffFew Hoosiers have any concept of the scope of the information tsunami washing over state education policy, but they’re
beginning to find out.
MoreEDITORIAL: Next grand plan for City Market
June 12, 2010
IBJ StaffWhile it seems ominously similar to earlier efforts, there are components that might result in a better outcome.
MoreEDITORIAL: Lots of promising local firms in IPO pipeline
June 5, 2010
There’s a reason we’re thrilled to see the Indianapolis area is building a healthy pipeline
of firms primed to go public: It bodes well for our economy.
MoreEDITORIAL: Executive pay policies, not salaries, need reform
May 29, 2010
In the wake of a recession blamed largely on Wall Street, boards need to act. But reducing executive pay shouldn’t
be their primary objective.
MoreEDITORIAL: Business strength benefits city
May 22, 2010
The recession is dragging on, unemployment remains above 9 percent, and Lilly is chopping its way through 5,500 layoffs.
Business bummers abound. But it’s not all bad news.
MoreEDITORIAL: Ballard making good moves a habit
May 15, 2010
IBJ StaffMore than two years into his term, Mayor Greg Ballard has shown a creative flair and a pragmatic streak the city needs.
MoreEDITORIAL: Celebrate victory over apathy by voting
May 8, 2010
IBJ StaffIsn’t it great to live in a country where citizens have a say in who serves in every public position from president
to school board? Wouldn’t it be even better if citizens actually took that privilege seriously and went to the polls?
MoreEDITORIAL: Don't abandon basic services because of tax caps
May 1, 2010
IBJ StaffThe property tax caps that are all but sure to become part of the Indiana constitution after a voter referendum
this November
are definitely good politics—and might prove to be good policy. We won’t know for sure until we see what becomes
of two property-tax funded entities that are starving as the caps fully phase in.
MoreEDITORIAL: Simon could score for city library
April 24, 2010
IBJ StaffPerhaps it’s time for Pacers owner Herb Simon—a billionaire
like his late brother—to burnish his credentials as a philanthropist who makes the city a better place to live and work.
MoreEDITORIAL: Shed more light on Pacers' plight
April 17, 2010
IBJ StaffIt would be a sad day in our civic history if the Indiana Pacers packed up and left for a place with
more financial firepower. But there’s a limit to how far the city should go to keep the team from leaving home.
MoreEDITORIAL: Time for Brizzi to heed calls to step down
April 10, 2010
IBJ StaffCarl Brizzi’s once-promising political career is coming to an end. He won’t become a mayor or a congressman or
win election to any of the posts that seemed within his grasp when he was an up-and-coming Republican.
MoreEDITORIAL: It takes money to raise graduation rates
April 3, 2010
IBJ StaffAfter the 2008-2009 school year—the first of the Greater Indianapolis Chamber of Commerce’s four-year Common Goal
program, the overall
graduation rate among public schools in Marion County had jumped from 69 percent to almost 74 percent.
MoreEDITORIAL: Sports payoff is on the way through 'legacy project'
March 27, 2010
IBJ StaffSports may be overemphasized in our society, but there’s no doubt they’ve been good to Indianapolis.
MoreEDITORIAL: Opportunities lost in 2010 legislative session
March 20, 2010
IBJ StaffAfter a legislative session short on fireworks but absent any major achievements, it’s fair to ask how long “do
no harm” will pass for progress in the Indiana General Assembly.
MoreEDITORIAL: Citizens' utility deal is smart move
March 13, 2010
IBJ StaffMuch work remains before the city’s water and sewer utilities are sold to Citizens Energy Group, but the general outline
of the deal makes sense and deserves support—not political posturing—as final terms are hammered out.
MoreEDITORIAL: Run for president, Gov. Daniels
March 6, 2010
IBJ StaffGov. Mitch Daniels should step through the door he cracked open last month and throw
his hat in the ring. Voters would benefit from a new voice.
MoreEDITORIAL: White Lodging delivers a winner for Indianapolis tourism
February 27, 2010
IBJ StaffHindsight is always 20/20, but in the case of the Marriott Place hotel complex, foresight was just as clear.
MoreEDITORIAL: Overspending saps nation's vigor
February 20, 2010
IBJ StaffEurope, not the United States, has the best growth prospects, an Asian executive told Gov. Mitch Daniels during a trade mission
last fall. Why? America’s escalating debt.
MoreEDITORIAL: New transit study focuses on return as well as cost
February 13, 2010
IBJ StaffCentral Indiana is much better at churning out transportation studies than implementing a real transit system, but there’s
reason to take seriously the report released Feb. 10 by the Central Indiana Transit Task Force.
MoreEDITORIAL: Let's call the Super Bowl the Super Bowl
February 6, 2010
IBJ StaffThe National Football League has trademarked “Super Bowl”—along
with “Super Sunday” and “NFL”—and is notorious for the lengths it will go to in order to protect
its brands.
MoreEDITORIAL: Lawmakers should save tobacco agency and ban smoking
January 30, 2010
IBJ StaffIf the General Assembly
wants to create some good news in this budget-conscious short session, it will continue our wise investment in Hoosier health,
and go one better by passing a statewide smoking ban.
MoreEDITORIAL: Legislators should stick to the basics and go home
January 23, 2010
IBJ StaffWe like the Indiana General Assembly’s no-nonsense approach to this year’s short legislative session—at
least it looks good on the surface.

Who makes Tater Tots? They would be a good sponsor, because $3 Million for the alleged "Greatest Spectacle In Racing" is taters. Tiny, tiny taters. But at least they are making up something of the losses accumulated over the years in this dying sport. Buttock in seat is certainly not doing it, nor eyeball on TV, as evidenced by the lack of both.
We loved lakehouse and think the Arbor Village would be a great location. It is less than 2 miles from over 1000 rooftops in the 225,000 to over 1 million range. Many people could use the great fishers trail system to bike or walk there. Just an idea Scotty -- but maybe something closer to 3 Wiseman would good. The only microbrew in area is Ram (boring)
True, it's an ESPN production, but ESPN is just another name for ABC Sports, or what used to be ABC Sports since ABC Sports no longer exists as a name. ESPN=ABC Sports= ESPN. ESPN is, according to Forbes "the world's most valuable media property" worth $40 billion. Despite that, they fired 400 people this week.
The Prestige was a great flick.
Larry - even though the race is on ABC, ESPN does all of the work, so that is why ESPN is mentioned. Most sports on ABC are called something like "ESPN on ABC."
