What?s the Fallout From Indiana?s Passing Its Right to Work Law Just Before
2012-02-08 20:38:00 Last week, the state of Indiana passed its own right to work statute, thus becoming our nation’s 23rd & one of the few Midwestern right to work states. For a summary of what this means, check out this 2/1/12 New York Times article. Illinois, where I’m located & which intensely competes with Indiana (as well ...

Brian Bosma, David Long, make Indiana the 23rd Right to Work state VIDEO TE
2011-11-21 22:46:00 House Speaker Brian Bosma (R-Indianapolis) issued the following statement following a joint press conference where he announced he will pursue Right to Work legislation this session to bring more economic development opportunity for Hoosiers:STATEHOUSE?"Today marks the beginning of the freedom campaign for Hoosier workers. While we are the envy of the Midwest in our job creation efforts, economic development experts tell us that removing the last barriers to job creation in our state will help the quarter of a million unemployed Hoosiers get back to work. That is why my top priority this session is to make Indiana the 23rd Right to Work state in the nation."Right to Work isn't about Unions - it is about freedom and economic opportunity. It is about giving all Hoosiers the freedom to choose a job, decide how their hard earned money is spent and bring more employment opportunities to Indiana."With the national economic malaise, and our unemployment rate stubbornly hovering around 9 p...
RITA INDIANA UNITES
2011-11-15 14:51:00 Dominican author/musician, Rita Indiana, has a knack for conveying powerful social commentary in very infectious (and effective) forms. Her latest video, Da Pa Lo Do, which roughly translates to "There's Enough For Both," takes on the controversial subject of Haitian/Dominican racial division. The visuals portray two young "soldiers" scurrying about the Caribbean countryside who are visited by a black-faced (in good taste) Virgin Mary (played by Rita) and reminded of their unified roots. Very powerful!
Indiana festival offerings the suburbs are missing out on
2011-11-03 19:51:00 Well, with November here, that about spells the end of all the fall festivals in the suburbs. Rather than reflect on their food offerings, though, which are mostly the same, I thought I’d show the food offerings from the Fall Festival in my hometown of Evansville, Ind., which I visited this fall. Perhaps some of... Read more »
College Football 77 in 77: #76 Indiana Hoosiers
2011-06-19 00:25:00 To say that Indiana University is a college basketball haven but at the same time a dead zone for college football is kind of like saying that porn star/stripper/target of Anthony Weiner lust Ginger Lee is a bit skanky; an obvious understatement. There's a serious drought going on in Tom Crean's hoops program, but unfortunately for the gridiron Hoosiers, they've done nothing to pick up the slack and get the fanbase interested in sports. At least they were fun to watch last year. They threw the ball all over the place for big yards, but at the same time their running game and defense was a train wreck. (What else is new in Bloomington?) Oh yeah, the head coach...
WNBA; Chicago Sky Drop Season Opener to the Indiana Fever
2011-06-06 20:06:00 For the sixth straight time the Indiana Fever beat the Chicago Sky 65-57 in Saturday night's WNBA season opener. &-nbsp; &n-bsp; The Chicago Sky came in the season with uncertain expectation and during the season opener they proved why. &-nbsp; &n-bsp; The Sky could not make shots at the beginning of the game, and they could barley hold on to the ball long enough to create an opportunity to score. The Sky had a whopping 17 turnovers for the night and they shot just 35 percent. &-nbsp; &n-bsp; The Sky got an 8-2 run going at the end of the first quarter just to come within four points; but the Fever put an end to that run during the third gaining a...
An Interview With Todd Rokita, Indiana's Fourth District
2011-05-28 18:30:00 -By Warner Todd Huston (This interview was originally a part of the RightPundits.com interview series of the incoming GOP freshmen.) Interview with freshman Representative Todd Rokita of Indiana's Fourth Congressional District (Rep.-Elect at time of interview). Being here in Chicago right adjacent to Rokita's turf, I was already familiar with his work as Indiana's Secretary of State and so when the RP team offered me an interview with him, I jumped at the chance. Rokita made quite a stir in the Hoosier state with his idea of requiring voters to present a photo ID before they were allowed to vote. This law was a campaign promise he made as he ran for the Secretary of State's office. It was a...
Indiana Supreme Court Eviscerates U.S. Constitution
2011-05-16 19:30:00 -By Warner Todd Huston Indiana's highest court has turned against our rights and the Constitution of the United States. The Supreme Court of Indiana has just decided that the Fourth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution does not apply to the citizens of Indiana. The court has decided that Hoosiers have no right to be safe in their own homes from illegal entry, search, and seizure by police. Indiana's highest court has just said that Hoosier stormtroopers can invade any home at ay time and citizens have no right to resist because it is "against public policy." Blogger Bruce McQuain said this appalling incident in Indiana is an example of, "why you have to constantly protect your rights daily from attacks...
Gary Indiana Democratic Mayoral Primary May Make History With a New Hatcher
2011-05-03 09:28:00 Have not heard much local or national political news coverage regarding the Mayoral Primary election in Gary Indiana Tuesday May 3, but national Black and female political history may be made if Gary voters give the Democratic nomination to Gary City Councilwoman Ragen Hatcher who would be poised to become Gary's first female Mayor, and then join the political history books with her father, the first Black Mayor of Gary Indiana and national Democratic Party leader Richard Gordon Hatcher !!I applaud the leadership of Ragen Hatcher for working hard in Gary's grassroots communities, focusing more on earning people's trust in her own right versus pushing her father and name as qualifications. If she stayed true to this and earned the...

Derrick Rose just MVP'd the Indiana Pacers
2011-04-16 21:35:00 With a 3:38 left in the game, the Bulls down by 10, Tyler Hansbrough making a mockery Carlos Boozer's defense, things did not look good.Luol Deng knocked down a couple free throws, Joakim hit a tip, and then Derrick Rose went MVP on the Pacers.It started with an incredible pass to Noah for a dunk in transition. Noah missed the free throw and the lead was four. Then Derrick Rose hit an impossible spinning layup in the lane while being knocked around. He followed it up with an incredible floater off a spin move, and an assist to Kyle Korver for the three, and the Pacers never recovered....
Indiana Democrat Fleebagger Compares Himself to Our Soldiers
2011-04-04 17:33:00 -By Warner Todd Huston There is nothing worse than some self-interested politician acting as if his partisan political agenda makes him serving his country just like our brave soldiers at war. But here we have it from Indiana's 69th District Democrat Dave Cheatham, one of the Hoosier State Reps that ran off to Illinois to avoid doing his job at the state capitol. But what is worse than this cretin claiming that his running off to Illinois to stay at a resort hotel for a week on the taxpayer's dime is somehow just like being a U.S. soldier in Afghanistan is the fact that the union thugs in the audience applauded for this politician, heartily agreeing with the whole misconception!...
Indiana's Makes Great Strides in School Choice, Pro-Life Legislation
2011-04-02 17:00:00 -By Warner Todd Huston While everyone has been focusing on the Nazi signs being carried by "teachers" in Wisconsin, Indiana's fleebaggers have finally come home and the state's legislature has gotten down to business. The result has been some great conservative victories for school choice and pro-choice legislation. Hoosier Access has the finer points and details, but I'll give an overview of two great pieces of legislation that passed down at the state's House in Indianapolis....

Northwestern guts out a road win at Indiana
2011-02-20 03:29:00 This was supposed to be this hard. In fact, it was supposed to be harder. Oddsmakers had Indiana by 3 and Ken Pomeroy had Indiana by 4 with Northwestern having just a 35% chance of victory. Well, for once the Wildcats defied the odds and pulled out a 70-64 victory over the Hoosiers.No, the win doesn't all of a sudden make Northwestern a bubble contender. It doesn't magically give them NCAA Tournament hopes, but it was meaningful. It was the type of win that didn't happen last season. As the Wildcats desperately hung on to NCAA dreams they suffered crushing defeats at Indiana, at Penn State and at Iowa. Those three losses dropped the Wildcats from a possible 10-8 in...

Explaining the Horrible State of Indiana Hoosier Basketball
2011-01-12 00:30:00 Hands down, the Indiana Hoosiers are probably the worst team in the Big Ten right now. It's very unfamiliar territory considering the storied Hoosier tradition. In all college basketball, they're third all-time in national titles, fifth in tournament appearances, sixth in tourney wins, seventh in Final Fours, and 11th in wins. But since Tom Crean took over, they're a lowly 25-54 (32% winning pct.), 5-31 in the Big Ten (14% winning pct). No wonder Crean's public persona grows more high-strung and irritated by the week. On Sunday night they were drilled by a Northwestern team that was itself drilled by Illinois four days before that. Yes, we knew Kelvin "Mr. Telephone Man" Sampson came from Oklahoma like a F5...
Northwestern blows out Indiana
2011-01-10 04:43:00 To be honest, I'm not quite sure what you can take away from Northwestern's 93-81 victory at Welsh-Ryan Arena tonight over Indiana. Oh sure, the Wildcats got a victory and the Hoosiers now have even more questions to answer, but other than that it's tough to take away too much. This was Northwestern taking advantage of a young team that made young mistakes. Here were my three biggest takeaways. 1. Luka Mirkovic was finally aggressive - Yes, Indiana's starting lineup didn't have a player over 6'8. In fact the Hoosiers don't have anyone on their roster that's over 6'9, but Mirkovic dominated in the paint for most of the game. He posted up strong and finished when he needed to. He...
Northwestern Beats Indiana Hoosiers for First Big 10 Win
2011-01-10 04:20:00 Two teams entered 0-3 in the Big Ten; one emerged with a tremendous burden removed from their shoulders. Since the injury to star forward John Shurna, the conference's leading scorer, the Northwestern Wildcats have been struggling mightily. But they took care of IU 93-81 Sunday night, to improve to 10-4. The Indiana Hoosiers got off to a 6-0 start against some really terrible competition. But they lost to both Northern Iowa and Colorado, and now find themselves 0-4 in conference play....

Indiana County Throwing Man off His Own Property For Living in Camper
2010-12-23 19:05:00 -By Warner Todd Huston A county government in Indiana has decided that a man that is bothering no one, a man living a very simple lifestyle, a man living on his own property must be evicted from it. Why have these jackbooted government thugs decided that this must be done? Because the man has the gall to live so simply that he has no plumbing or electricity in the camper he is living in. WISH TV news in Indiana told the tale of Dick Thompson, a 72-year-old man living on his own 38-acre property in Madison County. Thompson lives on the property with several horses, a dog, and a bird. He resides in an old camper that has no sewer...

Help Seth Petreikis: The six month old from Dyer, Indiana in need of a life
2010-12-10 18:59:00 Today, in Dyer, Indiana, a six month old boy named Seth Petreikis is fighting for his life. Seth Petreikis suffers from complete DiGeorge Syndrome, which keeps him from developing a thymus, an organ that helps fight infection. Seth needs a transplant pioneered by Dr. Louise Markert at Duke University. The procedure is expensive, $500,000.00, and Indiana's Medicaid will not pay for the operation, claiming the surgery is "experimental" even though 58 out of the 60 children to receive the surgery have survived. Seth's parents need our help. Seth needs our help. Without the procedure, Seth will die. After he receives the procedure, Seth could grow up to help our children and grandchildren. Seth's family cannot go to insurance to pay for this procedure. Without getting into the debate about national healthcare and insurance, I submit that we as Americans insure each other. We've heard these stories about how we pick each other up when a neighbor falls. That's part--m...

Wisconsin Badgers Score a Ridiculous 83 on Indiana
2010-11-14 00:18:00 Do the Indiana Hoosiers even try to play defense in football? Seriously, did they decide to play with less than 11 men today, how can you give up 80+ points? Is Bill Lynch fired? Will he accuse Bret Bielema of running up the score? How exactly can you not "run up the score" if the opposing defense is that bad? Did Bucky's arms fall off after doing push-ups after every point scored? Bo Ryan's Wisconsin Badgers college basketball team tips off tomorrow vs. Prairie View A&M, will they reach 83 points? How many times will they do that in a game this season? Did the Badgers look at the Illini and Wolverines putting up 132 points and say "hey...
Ohio State Experiences the Healing Power of the Indiana Hoosiers
2010-10-10 13:37:00 Going into the Indiana game, the Ohio State Buckeyes had plenty to worry about. How would the Buckeye's banged up secondary hold up against Ben Chappell and the Hoosier's prolific passing attack? How much would Terrelle Pryor's thigh injury inhibit an Ohio State offense that has relied on his explosive runs when their backs were against the wall? But what seemed like threats from the Hoosier squad at kickoff turned into the perfect treatment for Ohio State to smooth out their rough edges. By Hans Hetrick...
Evansville Indiana, Indiana, Indiana
2010-10-08 06:18:00 In the interest of the "shaddup and blog" movement, Imma gonna write something. Do not mistake my silence on the whole mom blogger HFCS thing to be disinterest, either. Oh, not by a long shot, my digital pumpkins. Summary: "Don't be a putz", and I mean it in the nicest way possible to both "sides". If you don't know what I'm talking about, you're probably lucky. At any rate, I'm home after a quick trip to Evansville, IN to visit the company that rhymes with, "Schmoyota". More on that when I finish writing it over on the blog where I can talk about such things, but I had a lovely time, and the Schmoyota factory was amazing. If you've never been to an honest-to-goodness factory, it was way cooler than even my favorite Rube Goldberg machines. Everyone but me is on fall break this week, so I figured that was my fall break. Although, I must be getting older because my vacation soundtracks haven't always been Muzak. The hotel, though lovely, had a penchant for blaring ...

I grew up on the Kentuckiana border and spent many dripping hot summer days in Santa Claus, Indiana at the Holiday World theme park.You may know Santa Claus better as the hometown of Bear's quarterback Jay Cutler, but I know it as the only place to go for blue ice cream, Mrs. Kringle's fudge, The Raven roller coaster, Spashin' Safari water park and of course, everything Christmas-related you can tolerate on a hot summer day. And it's not just the theme park, the whole town is Christmas from head to toe, 365 days a year with no days off - not even Christmas....

2010-08-13 20:09:00 On Monday, a formal announcement of the coming together of the four most-storied college basketball programs in the state of Indiana will be made.

Do Illinois' problems make Northwest Indiana more attractive to busine
2010-07-01 22:48:00 Downtown Valparaiso, not too far from where I once lived.Long ago, back when I was barely out of college, a friend and I were traveling to Ohio. We had to go through Indiana to get there. We found ourselves motoring along the Indiana Tollway in the middle of the night, not a whiff of traffic to be seen. Then I almost slammed straight into a sea of red brake lights.Seems Indiana's Department of Highway Transportation was doing scheduled roadwork, and had shut down the tollway for 20 minutes or so to let its construction workers do their thing. People were standing outside their cars, smoking, swearing or just staring ahead.My friend summed it up this way: "Indiana, the most backward...

So I checked my screaming baby and myself into a La Quinta off I-64 and merrily accepted the free booze at happy hour. So far only one person has pounded the wall with a muffled "SHADDUP!"We caused a brief scene at the Gas City station outside of Kankakee this morning when,  being unable to shake this article off my brain, I was expecting an Oh Crap moment around every corner. I was two hours into a six hour road trip, out of gas at the pump and realized I didn't have my wallet. Oh crap. They...

Chicago beat them on Wednsesday, but will be without center Joakim Noah tonight. All-Star Derrick Rose scored 33 points last night, and looked dominant handling the offense.

Mike McGraw has more:"I'm not feeling great. I'm happy we won the game today."Q: It looked like you might have tweaked your foot on one play in overtime? A: "I don't really remember. I'm just trying to be in the moment of the game. The coaches ask me how I'm doing and stuff. But obviously, I don't want to come out of the game. I want to play. I think I really have to be smart about when I can and when I can't."I think the best decision right now...
