For me, the weekend included hosting the Indy Men's Magazine Reunion Celebration benefiting Indy Reads. As the editor of that mag during its five-year run, I can't be objective about the pleasures of hearing such a talented batch of writers sharing their words. I can, however, say that Mass Ave.'s Indy Reads Bookstore is a terrific venue for readings and I look forward to attending--and hosting--many more events there.

I also visited Garfield Park for a Spirit & Place event, the Indianapolis Art Center to check out the latest addition to its sculpture garden, and the Service Center for a play by NoExit Performance. 

No, I haven't seen the new James Bond film yet. But I'm looking forward to it.

What about you? What did you hear, see or do this weekend?

    With all the hype we were looking forward to the new bond movie but are sadly disappointed, it is an ok action flick, but it's not Bond. Daniel Craig plays another serious spy role without the trademark cheeky humor. The new Q is a horribly boring pick, there are dozens of actors who would have made that role more fun. And yes I MISS the exploding pens. Tragically the original Bond car is destroyed before reaching its full prop potential. Judi Dench"s M plays out her role well, read about her macular degeneration elsewhere. Fiennes is good, Javier Bardiem is excellent. Bring back Pierce Brosnan please.

  1. These higher rates Co. e about only because physicians are now hospital employees. otherwise physicians couldn't charge these rates and share the windfall with the hospital. Community/rural hospitals probably not buying physicians practices and thus weren't getting the windfall anyway.

  2. The incentive for poor people to get themselves off public assistance and "no longer be poor" is even with help...they're STILL POOR! Being poor, even with some assistance, isn't all that pleasant. (I speak from experience) It's a stubborn myth that poor people, who are on public assistance, are sitting in the lap of luxury. You should try living on just those "freebies" that you mentioned and see how meager they actually are. By the way, I didn't mean you had to buy/own a puppy...just pet one. :)

  3. As near as I can tell the minority has ZERO constitutional obligation to offer a quorum to the majority. A requirement for quorum was inserted into the constitution so that tyrannical majorities could not simply shove through odious and objectionable legislation (which is exactly what they did.) By allowing a tyrannical majority to charge fines against the minority for exercising their constitutional prerogative to deny quorum the court as made a mockery of constitutional governance in the state of Indiana.

  4. The voters elected the Reps to make a vote not walk out on the vote. They had to the right to exercise their opinion and vote "no" to the bill. Let me ask you this if you walked out of your job for 5 straight weeks would you get paid? Would you even have a job to go back to? If any elected official walks out on the people they should be arrested for stealing tax dollars from the public. They were elected to do a job and not leave when the job gets stuff.

  5. I have been to several of their locations in Pennsylvania and always go in for 1 item and leave with a basket full of things. I'm very happy they decided on Indiana, now if only they would put the other store in eastside.
