  4. The Twisted Tale of Indianapolis’s White River

    "A group of social- and environmental-justice advocates filed a complaint with the Environmental Protection Agency, alleging the sewage issues disproportionately affected minority residents. The EPA agreed, and in 2006 mandated that Indianapolis solve the issues once and for all. In 2011, Citizens Energy Group began to oversee the $2 billion DigIndy project."

  6. The Kentucky Bourbon Trail Is A World-Class Bike Trip

    "Kentucky is next level in terms of politeness...Everyone waves you through intersections and yields politely to let you in when turning, and in 5 days and over 200 miles, I did not experience a single rude driver, comment, or gesture or even once have a car come what I consider too close."

  7. #IndyEleven up 1-0 after Jack Blake taken down in the box and nails the penalty. Their goal celebration routine needs a LOT of work. @uslchampionship #MastodonFC

  8. Ooh, #IndyEleven signed Augustine Williams and Tyler Gibson! So I'd guess the starters will be

    Keeper: Oettl
    D: Boudadi, Diz Pe, King
    MF: Blake, Lindley, Quinn, Gibson
    F: Guenzatti, Martinez, Williams

    That's pretty formidable. Oettl had some real bonehead plays last year before getting hurt, and Williams will have to overcome the Indy striker curse, but I'm excited!

    @uslchampionship

  9. #IndyEleven player mugged in the box, no penalty. SAFC player knocked over 30 feet from the ball, that's a penalty. @uslchampionship #MastodonFC

  10. #IndyEleven down 1-0 to a team that has given up 15 more goals than they've made this season. Have an ailing soccer team? Play Indy on their field for an instant pick-me-up! @uslchampionship

  11. WTF Harrison Robledo? Kicked the opponent right in the midfield and now #IndyEleven down a man for the second half. @uslchampionship #MEMvIND

  12. Could someone tell the El Paso announcers there's a soccer game going on? #IndyEleven @uslchampionship

  13. Fouls in the box on consecutive plays for Miami against #IndyEleven, no calls. Ref needs to call something eventually. @uslchampionship

  14. #IndyEleven now sitting in 8th place, with a +2 goal differential. The two teams ahead of them combine for -19. Surely that has to come back and bite them eventually?

    @uslchampionship

  15. @uslchampionship Trilk getting the start over Oettl tonight. Not that defense has been much of a problem for #IndyEleven

  16. South Shore Line's Double Track Northwest Indiana project is 97% complete.

    "The almost $650 million project that includes 16.9 miles of a second track is estimated to be complete in May. The new track will go from Gary to Michigan City.

    Construction of the Miller Station building is underway and should be finished later this month...Construction of the new Portage/Ogden Dunes high-level platform is almost done."

    Pretty exciting, @pollak ?

  17. Terre Haute, Indiana mayor Brandon Sakbun goes off on walkable cities

    "Cities like Terre Haute have got to chase density and urbanism. Can you eat live work play all within a mile? Are you walking distance from a grocery store?"

    "Our community right now is not as walkable as it should be. And infill housing density urbanism helps bring that to the city of Terre Haute and solve some of those problems."

  18. @Itchy I'm actually more fascinated by Brandon Sakbun being elected mayor of Terre Haute. If the mid-size cities are swinging Democratic, the Republicans could be in trouble.

  19. The Supreme Court and 'The Shadow Docket'

    "The shadow, or emergency, docket, is the way many cases today, sometimes hugely consequential cases, are decided, without full briefing or oral argument, and without any written opinion."

    "In just four years, the Trump Justice Department asked the court for emergency relief an astounding 41 times, and the court actually granted all or part of those requests in 28 of the cases."

  20. Which comes first in East Lansing: Parking or affordable housing?

    "A clash between surface-level parking and affordable housing ended in favor of the former as the City Council voted 3-2 against a mixed-used development at 530 Albert St., the site of a paid surface-level parking lot...with the exception of the six Saturdays each fall when MSU hosts home football games, there is enough space for visitors"

  21. Down on Indiana Avenue
    Wes and Jimmy, man they played the blues.
    I guess they were only passin' through
    That's my window on the world.

    Anyone catch the Wes Montgomery special on public TV this week?

  24. From the Kerry Thomson mayoral campaign: "A driving force in..no multiplexes in single-family neighborhoods and only a limited number of duplexes being allowed in these same neighborhoods."

    So it sounds like Kerry will be another advocate for rich people in their fancy neighborhoods. That's unfortunate, but at least she hasn't come out as directly opposed to bike infrastructure like Sandberg. Hobson's choice.

  25. Just got an email from the Kerry Thomson campaign touting her accomplishments in blocking the elimination of single-family zoning and building lots of Habitat for Humanity houses. I wonder how far the city had to sprawl to get those built while still making sure the rich people got to keep their fancy plots? #BloomingtonIN #UrbanPlanning #KerryThomson

  26. Ordered a Kerry Thomson yard sign a couple of weeks ago. Wonder if I'll get it.

    Not sure if Thomson is really going to be on the right side of the density and transportation issues that Bloomington has, but anyone would be better than the horrible Susan Sandberg, and Don Griffin hasn't raised much cash yet.
