A southwestern Indiana cantaloupe farm is the source of at least some of the salmonella responsible for an outbreak that sickened people in 21 states and killed two Kentucky residents, the Food and Drug Administration said Tuesday.

STOSSEL: No, there really shouldn’t be a law

I’m a libertarian in part because I see a false choice offered by the political left and right: government control of the economy—or government control of our personal lives.

KRUGMAN: A politician who takes Rand too seriously

Most of the discussion of Paul Ryan, the presumptive Republican nominee for vice president, has focused on his budget proposals. But Ryan is a man of many ideas, which would ordinarily be a good thing.

BOEHM: Inside the 1987 Pan American Games

Pardon me for reminiscing on this 25th anniversary of the 1987 Pan American Games. Others have told how the Indianapolis “sports strategy” helped regenerate downtown, grow IUPUI, and establish Indianapolis as a major league city and a convention destination.

SHELLA: Voters are pretty good at limiting terms

SOUDER: Mourdock will win easier than you think

Among news people in Indiana there is an excited buzz: Mourdock may be in trouble in his Senate race against Donnelly. Indiana Democrats were swamped in the 2010 elections.

EARLY: Mourdock firmly in Jenner tradition

It’s nine weeks until the election, and Richard Mourdock from southern Indiana and Joe Donnelly from northwest Indiana are in a barn-burner race for the Senate seat. I am going to vote for Mourdock because I like his “tell it like it is” style, much like my all-time best Indiana senator, William Ezra Jenner.
