MoreHICKS: Structural unemployment not always a burden

MoreMARCUS: Will children make good leaders?
July 27, 2009

comment. Someday, I hope, I will overcome this character defect and stand up in opposition to wrongdoers.

in case after case, we see that the public failed to respond the way the organization expected.

MoreEDITORIAL: Wishard's smart planning shields taxpayers
July 27, 2009
IBJ StaffA referendum this fall on Wishard Health Services’ plans to build a $754 million hospital will tell a lot about the
mood—and savvy—of Marion County voters. In this economy, and with government at all levels strapped
for cash, the knee-jerk reaction might be to reject such a proposal.

July 27, 2009

Bill BennerA few years ago, when cyclist extraordinaire Lance Armstrong was in the midst of his phenomenal seven
straight Tour de France titles, those yellow Livestrong bands seemed ubiquitous. But when Armstrong left
competitive cycling, gradually those rubber yellow bands faded from view. I kept wearing mine, however, to remind me of the
courage of my mother, Emma.
MoreLOU'S VIEWS: Abe Lincoln is back at Spencer County theater
July 20, 2009
Lou HarryAfter I discovered it one summer, Lincoln Amphitheatre quickly became one of my favorite theaters in the state. Nestled

Abraham Lincoln, who spent his formative years just yards away.
MoreDINING: We'll take sushi over cigars, now and Zen
July 20, 2009
Andrea Muirragui DavisThis week, our exploration of the city’s cultural district dining took us to Mass Ave, where the culinary cultural
offerings just might outnumber the artsy fartsy stuff. Our destination: Bu Da Lounge (429 Massachusetts Ave., 602-3643), which
bills itself as an Asian-inspired cigar bar but is generating buzz for its sushi selection.

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.
Pimlico
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.
