Some things need to be repeated over and over again. Repetition is required when a concept is hard to grasp or when narrow interests are allowed to override the public interest. Interstate 69 from Indianapolis to Evansville is not intended to connect only Indianapolis and Evansville. The I-69 extension was designed to provide significantly improved […]
Indy Fringe part 3
Third in a series of blogs on experiences at Indy Fringe 2009. For more, click here and here.
I knew I had to hit the wall eventually.
That wall came in the form of what should have been a slam dunk on a kiddie basketball court. How hard is it to engage a willing
audience in a fun game of Bingo while playing a pair of silly characters?MAURER: My old wrestling rival kept winning
He was a tree trunk of a man who met my glance with a calm, almost disinterested glance—just another day at the office.
MARCUS: Happy news is the remedy for reality
The elderly woman sat before me nervously straightening the seams of her dark gray stockings.
MARCUS: Changing roles cause conflict
Americans are uncomfortable when responsibilities between the public and private sectors shift.
IBJ STYLE: Scott Schuman: From L.S. Ayres to ‘The Sartorialist’
A quarter century after graduating from Warren Central High School, Scott Schuman is a top fashion blogger.
MARCUS: A feast of perceptions about health care
Lots of people are
without health insurance, but that doesn’t necessarily mean they go without health care. Others have insurance that
doesn’t cover their needs. Either they don’t get the care or they go broke in the process.EDITORIAL: Susan Bayh’s tangled web puts cloud over senator husband
Corporate boards need more women, but not people such as Susan Bayh, wife of Sen. Evan Bayh. It’s not
that she isn’t up to the task. The former attorney at Eli Lilly and Co. and visiting professor at Butler University
is by all accounts capable. So we’re not surprised she regularly receives invitations to serve on boards. But
we are surprised she accepts.ALTOM: A voice of reason amid the craze over social media
Now there are hordes of Web sites in every industry,
for every region. If you use your site to attract business, you’re a snowflake in the world’s biggest blizzard.MARCUS: Economic slump inspires platitudes galore
If the problem is that consumers and businesses
are not spending because banks aren’t lending, then government making it easier for banks to lend and consumers to spend
is a good thing. The stimulus plan is right on target.MAURER: My rascal cousin is back in space
At precisely 6:03 p.m. July 15, space shuttle Endeavor blasted off from launch pad 39A at the Kennedy Space Center for
its scheduled linkup with the International Space Station. My cousin, Indiana astronaut David Wolf, is on board.MARCUS: Will children make good leaders?
As a quiet person, I am not likely to intrude when I run across egregious wrongs. Most often I let dastardly deeds go without
comment. Someday, I hope, I will overcome this character defect and stand up in opposition to wrongdoers.LOU’S VIEWS: Abe Lincoln is back at Spencer County theater
After I discovered it one summer, Lincoln Amphitheatre quickly became one of my favorite theaters in the state. Nestled
in a state park in Spencer County, the covered-but-still-outdoor theater’s anchoring attraction was a show about young
Abraham Lincoln, who spent his formative years just yards away.KATTERJOHN: Climbing mountains for Parkinson’s
What is it about mountains? People climb them because they’re there. People climb them because the experience
is humbling and rewarding. People climb them because they represent a physical and mental challenge that, once met, is deeply
satisfying.MARCUS: Men, women use time differently
On an average day, nearly 83 percent of women, but only 64 percent of men, spend time engaged in household activities, according to a recent report from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. Plus, when women engage in household activities, they average two hours and 35 minutes per day while men average two hours and one minute.
BENNER: Mom and Lance Armstrong had cancer in common
A 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.LOU’S VIEWS: Here’s the best from International Film Fest
This year’s Indianapolis International Film Festival gets rolling later this usual, with a bump to summer precipitated
in part by the moving on of its founder to the Nashville Film Festival and in part by the move of most of the fest (minus
parties) to the Indianapolis Museum of Art. We’ve spent the last few weeks reviewing most of the
features in competition.MARCUS: If not taxes, how about user fees?
“Most people hate to pay taxes,” Gregory Goad said. “They don’t appreciate the services taxes support,
they don’t understand why taxes are necessary, or they don’t like to help people in need.”LOU’S VIEWS: Breaking with the past at Tut show
I entered "Tutankhamun: The Golden King and the Great Pharoahs" (at the Children’s Museum of Indianapolis through Oct. 25) with a limited knowledge of Egyptian history—and by limited, I mean loose threads picked up from a handful of Mummy movies, the Bible, and a few too many productions of "Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat."
