November 3, 2012
Cecil Bohanon / Special to IBJPolitics is about compromise. But compromise is always around an agenda and elections are about agendas.
MoreEARLY: Donnelly running on high-pocrisy
November 3, 2012
Rex Early / Special to IBJIt is only a few days until the election, and the Mourdock-Donnelly Senate race is still in limbo.
MoreSHELLA: A kitchen where the heat is turned down
November 3, 2012
Jim Shella / Special to IBJAll of a sudden, when I check out news stories on the Internet, a negative political ad pops up and I can’t make it
go away. That is, unless I want the news story to go away, too.
MoreDAVIS: Republicans' turn to vote for Democrats
November 3, 2012
Kathy Davis / Special to IBJIf you know me, I think you agree that I am not a firebrand partisan with automatic reactions based on my Democratic Party
affiliation.
MoreSOUDER: Pence is show horse and work horse
November 3, 2012
Mark Souder / Special to IBJDemocratic gubernatorial candidate John Gregg has hauled out the canard that Mike Pence is a “show horse,” not
a “work horse,” based upon two “polls” in 2006 and 2008. Neither was scientific: They were anonymous,
voting multiple times could be easily done, and rivals could rig the voting.
MoreWINSTON: Why rural voters should support Obama
November 3, 2012
Robin Winston / Special to IBJPolitics is an amazing, yet perplexing, profession. I have often wondered why President Obama trails Mitt Romney by a large
margin in rural areas.

MoreHARRIS: Trigger laws critical to amplifying parents' voices
November 3, 2012

MoreLEIGHTY: Real feminists want a better economy
November 3, 2012
Hilary Leighty / Special to IBJApparently, the Republican Party has waged a war on women. I’ve heard this from the mainstream media, many Democratic
candidates and even a few Indiana University professors.
MoreEDITORIAL: Convention biz needs quick solution to flight woes
October 27, 2012
IBJ StaffLast week’s IBJ reported on an entirely different consequence of the direct-flight problem that should—must—break
us out of our stupor and get something done.
MoreMAURER: My stint in public service was a thrill
October 27, 2012
Mickey MaurerI lived it. I loved it. I bragged about it—too much. Then I forgot about it. That is until Kelly Nicholl, vice president
of marketing for the Indiana Economic Development Corp., asked me to provide a short summary of significant events from my
time as president of the IEDC and secretary of commerce.
MoreAHLRICHS: Turn up the heat on innovation
October 27, 2012

and future of design learning.
MoreHICKS: Some additional clarity on gender and pay
October 27, 2012

MoreKIM: Election may not sway markets like expected
October 27, 2012
Mickey KimWith election rhetoric reaching a fever pitch, investors are curious about what an Obama re-election or Romney win will mean
for the stock market.
MoreRapid rise of ExactTarget uplifting for young techies
October 27, 2012

Lou HarryGeorge Seurat’s painting “A Sunday on La Grande Jatte—1884” provided the inspiration for the musical “Sunday in the Park with

A&E Road Trip, an exercise in arts connectivity.

MoreBASILE: In Houston, a megachurch offered a practical message
October 27, 2012

MoreDrum up more flights
October 27, 2012
I could not agree more—connections to and from Indianapolis [Oct. 22] are totally inadequate.
MoreMath illiteracy rampant
October 27, 2012
Please don’t blame the state’s emphasis on tests for the lack of life skills in mathematics [Meredith column,
Oct. 1].
MoreDrop Rusthoven
October 27, 2012
Peter Rusthoven’s columns are horrible. There is no business information in them, just conservative Republican dribble.
MoreHetrick spins, too
October 27, 2012
Bruce Hetrick’s Oct. 22 column “Spouting off about the all-too-common art of spin” begins by offering the
reader his view on how characters in the Broadway play “The Book of Mormon” are adept at spinning falsehoods in
the guise of “helping people.” Hetrick provides spinning of his own, personally reviewing the highly irreverent
play as hilarious, pant-wetting entertainment.
MoreHow's Obama workin' for ya?
October 27, 2012
I have avoided writing about any of left-wing author Sheila Kennedy’s opinion pieces because she’s such an easy
target. However her [Oct. 22] “Elections have consequence” piece calling Republicans extremist demands a response.
MoreVote to restore balance
October 27, 2012
Three things have modulated the excesses of unfettered American capitalism since the rise of the Progressive Era in the early
20th century: labor unions, government regulations, and the progressive income tax system. It’s no coincidence that
the rise of the American middle class followed.
MoreGM, Chrysler didn't need rescue
October 27, 2012
The automobile industry did not need rescue. It did not need the government takeover. Only two badly run corporations were
in trouble.

So the Mayor adds another non value added layer to having a vehicle towed? Whereby the City Government RECIEVES AN ILLEGAL KICKBACK FROM A LGOISTICS COMPANY THAT SUBS THE WORK TO LOCAL TOW COMPANIES? What is the service the City performs for receiving the "tribute"? This is RICO!!!!! What a corrupt and unnecessary layer. What a dirtbag Mayor and his cronies.
Owner occupied housing. Clear enough?
So people think I am paranoid. It's from experience in dealing with puds requested by developers who make major donations themselves to representatives, have nice fund raisers for those running for office and hide through pac's. then there are the public relation firms. You will note some pr comments below. You there Clyde Lee? My opinion. Commercial along 421, great. Multifamily housing, terrible idea that will change the town. Senior condos or zero lot line homes west, great. I suggest keeping all entries to commercial areas at 421. All entries to owner occupied on sycamore. Will keep the traffic on sycamore down some. Two other things. You can't trust what will be there in 10 years. Steve builds quality stuff, but areas change over time. Look at the changes at the wall mart center at 86th and 421 over the last 10 years. Look at the apartments and neighborhoods behind St Vincent's. Raintree properties WILL decrease in value if commercial and multifamily goes in near. It has already been happening around the bridges area. The houses that have been sold recently are way below market. Several deals not closed due to the Illinois construction and the whole unsurety of the bridges. It's pretty simple, Zionsville will approve the whole thing because the city council has been groomed over a LONG period of time for this. I might even suggest some are in their position as a result of this.
Esta, do you have a dog in this fight? You seem to really want to knock anyone against this project. No, I didn't move to Indiana for the architecture. I moved here for that red barn in the field. The horses and fields of corn. A place that is NOT overdeveloped. There are plenty of nearby places in Indianapolis that could be REDEVELOPED instead.
RKW - OK, we get it, you're paranoid. The question is, are you paranoid enough? Greg - Yes, Pittman(s) is (are) at it again. They are developers, they build things. It's what they do. So when you go to work tomorrow, Greg, you're at it again too. Cliff - Really? You moved to Indiana for its progressive architecture? That's like moving to England for the cuisine. Zionsvillain - The house you moved to was once a field or woods. I'm willing to bet folks were upset when that ground was plowed under and a house was built. But I guess now that you are in, everything should stop? "My house was OK, but the next one is sprawl." SE Guy - Please don't paint us with such a wide brush. Most reasonable Zionsville residents welcome planned, measured development.
