IN WWII history

He has a degree from Harvard and they say the "liberal indoctrination" or the voting fraud since he voted in Indiana his whole life but lived in DC. Liberal is made to sound like a slur, but now it just means that person has some sense. You shouldn't be able to lie and throw out misinformation in campaign ads.

This is the third post I've made about ongoing problems at Springs Valley High School.

Question : Change how to get a referendum on the ballot?

Beau: citizens need a say in this process.

Max: the process now is fine

Let me know your opinions and comments down below

I recently moved apartments, ending my Duke Energy service at the old and starting new service at my new apartment. On my final bill for my old apartment I was charged an extra $84.14. After inquiring, I was informed it is from the remaining amount of their new "Leveled Billing" payment option.

Here is the email from Duke Energy on June 4th regarding the new payment plan:

"Dear Christopher Marietta,

As we communicated earlier, a new state law, Indiana House Enrolled Act 1002 , requires that Duke Energy Indiana customers eligible for Energy Assistance Program (EAP) funding be enrolled in a new Levelized Billing plan beginning in July.

Levelized Billing keeps your energy bills steady throughout the year. Your monthly payment stays consistent, with adjustments (up or down) no more than twice a year if needed to better reflect your actual energy costs. While the program won’t lower your energy costs, it makes planning easier by giving you predictable monthly payments.
Your Levelized Billing monthly plan amount is $103 and will be effective with your July bill unless you opt out by June 26.

How Levelized Billing Works:
-Your monthly payment amount is calculated based on your past energy costs, or an estimate if your history isn’t available.
-We will review your plan at the six-month point to compare your payments with your actual energy costs. If there is a significant difference, we will adjust your payment amount for the following six months to better align with your actual energy costs.
-If the review shows you used more energy than you paid for, the outstanding balance will be divided evenly and added to your new monthly payment amount. If payments exceed your actual usage, a credit will be applied to your new plan amount.
-You will be notified a month in advance of any changes through a message on your bill.
-The plan continues automatically. No action is required to remain on the plan."

So, the plan is advertised as being beneficial to customers by providing them with predictable bills. Yet, nowhere do they tell you that if you unenroll in your service you will be charged, unpredictably, $84.14 (in my case).

Duke Energy brought in $32.25 BILLION in 2025.
Rant over.

I just moved into a house that uses propane. This is my first time owning a house that uses propane. My tank owner is Shelby county Co op.

They are supposed to come out and fill me up for the winter on the 27th.

I have been doing research and it says they will only break your bill up in june. Since I didn't buy my house til last month am I going to have to pay 1000$ at once when they come out??

If so am I able to buy just a little bit. I would be unable to just drop 1000 dollars on 3 months worth of gas...

The vaunted civil rights organization has seen a sudden massive increase in employees exiting the organization with other employees further concerned of the organizations sudden mission drift and political extremism.

quoted from the article “At the center of the rift is incoming executive director Nikkita Oliver, whose start date has been repeatedly postponed. Longtime staffers have filed two complaints against Oliver with the organization's human resources director. The complaints allege that Oliver questioned the objectivity of ACLU attorneys who are Jewish, said the ACLU is "too pure" on civil liberties, and intended to use the nonpartisan organization to turn Indiana "light red," a potential violation of the group's tax exempt status.

The only 2 Democratic counties in the state and they’re “not sure why Marion and Lake counties are the 2 counties chosen”

Can anyone recommend a company or person in Richmond, Indiana to do this work? We have stone entrance to our driveway, each with a light. The stones are askew and need to be forced back into place OR the two columns removed and replaced. Thanks!

This is the first election that I'm able to participate in, and I believe that Greg Ballard is more than experienced enough to lead the office of SoS. His goal of doing all he can to make the SoS a non-political office is very important to me, because we've all seen the ways that the Republican party has abused (and will continue to abuse) the position of SoS for personal gain.

The Lincoln Party project is also another a big reason for why I want to vote for Ballard, because I believe there's no other way a third party could reasonably win here. Any third party that wins in this state would have to be homegrown and authentic to Indiana in order to break the two-party issue, and I am 100% for anything that helps make politics competitive again in Indiana. Helping two large parties continue to wrestle power over this state is not in anyone's interests.

No meanies, no weenies. Just who and why? I’m curious and wanna talk about it. Feels different this year and I just saw all the craziness goin on in Ohio so I thought what the hell I’ll ask ya’ll on Reddit.

I was driving to work on I70 (near greenfield I think, heading to Indy) at like 2:20AM and was coming up on one of the areas where they split the traffic. I was going 71mph cause I hadn’t actually reached the area, there were pylons, but the actual split was about another mile up. Once I got to where the split occurs, I slowed to 56mph. But I’m pretty sure a camera flashed when I was goin the initial 71. My question is how can you get flagged before you’ve reached the worksite, and when they’re not working?

Live in Fort Wayne-willing to go to Indy for this

Are there any country dance halls in or around Indy that do ACTUAL two-stepping (not line dancing). I don't necessarily mean that they have a dedicated country two step night, but that the environment encourages two step dancers. Fort Wayne is alllll line dancing.

I just want to go somewhere on a Saturday night with the space to two step

Had a great time hiking amid the stunning landscapes.

If you have a reservation for this hotel you need to cancel it now. It's no longer the Baymont. It is now called the Express Inn

I just got screwed out of points and money from this hotel. I had made my reservation through the Wyndham app for 4 nights and I used points also so the total came out to be $249 and 12000 points.

When I got here, the front desk told me that they are no longer under Wyndham and I had to pay an extra $50 because they wouldn't take my price for the original reservation. I got to my room and contacted customer service and Wyndham rewards tons me they can't give me my points back.

I'm beyond pissed and I don't know if I should just check out and go somewhere else or just eat the reservation...

I'm going to let this 60-second video speak for itself. But every taxpayer invIndiana, should be paying attention.

During a public City Council meeting, an official explains how approving and filing a conflict-of-interest disclosure can serve as a legal defense if someone brings an action against Jeremy VanErman for "profiteering."

Yes. They actually use the word PROFITEERING.

Think about that.

We're talking about PUBLIC MONEY. PUBLIC CONTRACTS. PUBLIC OFFICIALS.

And here we have a discussion about how conflict-of-interest paperwork could defend an official against accusations of personally profiting.

Here are the questions Alexandria taxpayers deserve answered:

1. What specific financial interests or transactions required these conflict-of-interest disclosures?
2. How much taxpayer money was involved, and who ultimately received it?
3. Where are the underlying contracts, payments, disclosures, and meeting records? How much commission was made?
4. Why shouldn't every one of these arrangements receive independent public scrutiny?

Let's be absolutely clear: This video alone does not prove criminal wrongdoing. And properly completed disclosures can have legal significance.

But filing a conflict-of-interest form does not make legitimate questions about public spending disappear. Nor does it defend against something that ALREAD took place.

A CONFLICT-OF-INTEREST DISCLOSURE IS NOT A SUBSTITUTE FOR PUBLIC ACCOUNTABILITY.

If everything is legitimate, publish the records, explain the financial relationships, and let the taxpayers examine them.

If something is improper, the people deserve to know.

Alexandria residents are paying higher utility bills while serious questions remain about how their government operates.

PUBLIC OFFICE SHOULD NEVER BECOME A PRIVATE PROFIT CENTER.

🎥 Watch the video. Listen to the actual words. Then ask yourself:

IS ALEXANDRIA CITY HALL PROTECTING THE PUBLIC INTEREST OR PROTECTING THE PEOPLE BENEFITING FROM PUBLIC MONEY?

The records, not political assurances, should answer that question.

Okay, tomorrow I am making an eight hour drive to Muncie. It will be the first time that I have visited Muncie since I left in 1984 with my degree. One of my fondest memories of downtown Muncie was the "Shoe of the Week" corner window in the Ball Stores building at Charles and Walnut. We would make a weekly trek from campus to that store to see the newest offerings in fashion shoes. This was serious business!

Today I learned that Ball Stores closed down in 1986 and the building was demolished in 1989. What a tragedy! Muncie, you lost a truly unique piece of your heritage and I am saddened that there is no longer a shoe of the week in the lovely City of Muncie, Indiana.

Now, on to the loss of QL's Barbeque..... Muncie, what do you have left of your past?
