B-SIDES: Terre Haute beer maker mashing the competition

Honestly, when “Terre Haute” and “hip” get mentioned in the same sentence, the words “replacement” or “waders” are likely to be included, too. But not when it comes to brewing beer.....more>>

B-SIDES: MyKey was dimes, pocketknives and screwdrivers
You’d expect a car key this powerful to look like a Swiss army knife.
MARK BENNETT: A Bob Dylan Christmas album? It’s true, entertaining and positively unusual
I’m picturing holiday weather outside frosty windows, and a party inside. Friends grab handfuls of trail mix. Diet Cokes fizz in plastic cups. Wine gets sipped. Tree lights shine.
MARK BENNETT: From cheezborgers to pumpkin ice cream, everything goes better with autumn
Most folks consider fall to be a season of transition. We mourn the passing of summer, file the vacation pictures and stick our sandals in the corner of the closet. Then, the mourning shifts to moaning, because — as we like to increasingly remind ourselves — “winter is coming.”
MARK BENNETT: The Indiana Theatre brings back Midnight Movie Madness
There’s something about midnight movies. Maybe it’s the idea of pursuing laughs or terror deep into the night. Maybe it’s the immense images on the Indiana Theatre screen. Or, perhaps, it’s the after-film dilemma, “Denny’s or IHOP?”
MARK BENNETT: Larry Legend Foundation working to raise money for Larry Bird statue
Consider the irony, if Brad Fenton succeeds. What if, after all these years, the guy who leads a campaign to finally put a statue of Larry Bird in front of Hulman Center wasn’t even alive in 1979?
B-SIDES: Hoosiers are smack in the middle of ‘The Middle’
Prime-time TV needs more middle, more Indiana. I’m no prude, and I like escapist shows as much as the next guy.
Mark Bennett: Country treated to glaring examples of bad behavior
Fortunately, I’ve never been a contestant on the TV show, “Are You Smarter Than a Fifth-Grader?” I know what would happen. Just as Chevy Chase once did, while imitating Gerald Ford in a presidential debate, I, too, would end up telling the moderator (Jeff Foxworthy), “I was told there would be no math.”
MARK BENNETT: Through thick and thin, you just can’t give up on your team
More than once, my children — at young school ages — heard the taunts.
MARK BENNETT: Less disposable income means there’s even more reason for families to say no
No one likes to hear it. Few enjoy saying it. Yes, the Summer of No is not for the feint-hearted.
