Ray Steele And The News

Our recap of the pep rally - and it was an entire school district rally - in honor of our official high school marching band, the Tigers of Triton Central.

Voters approved tax increases for schools in four districts across Indiana on Election Day.

Volkswagen admitted to the emissions test cheating last time - the case involving Mike Wilson's car. This time, they deny it - so far.

Come on. If you have seen the movie, tell me that Wreck-It Ralph/Fix-It Felix was not the first thing you thought of when Jeb Bush rolled out his "Jeb Can Fix It" strategy.

Sure, the ladies on The View who claim that Carly Fiorina looked "demented" during the last Republican debate should have known better - it puts them in the same boat as Donald Trump when it comes to judging a woman by her looks. But with Fiorina suddenly polling badly, does talking about this "feud" do her any good?

The NFL will investigate whether the Colts violated league rules by failing to disclose an injury to Andrew Luck.

A man was arrested for sneaking into a Purdue sorority house to watch one of the students who live there while she was in the shower.

Gregory Iron is inspirational - listen to find out why - and he also portrays some of the best wrestling characters in the business, IMO. See "The El Paso Kid" Gregory Iron at Olde Wrestling when the unique promotion holds its first Indiana show Saturday November 7 in Muncie!

You won't be able to see it without a telescope, but around 1pm on Halloween, as asteroid is flying pretty close by us. Brian Murphy, director of the Holcomb Observatory at Butler University, talks about it.

Good gracious. I am doing my best, y'all, but Mike and Producer Colin insist on believing in witches, warlocks and baseball curses.

Honestly, we could probably do a 10 At 10 on education stories alone each day, since our education segments end up being longer than anything else we do. Here, we delve into the State Board's handling of ISTEP pass/fail line, as well as reaction to the Governor's call to not penalize teachers for expected lower ISTEP scores, at least for one year.

Incompetent, yes. Bias? Not necessarily, at least that's what we argued on The 10 At 10 about the "performance" of CNBC's folks at the latest Republican presidential debate.

We get personal in this segment, as Producer Colin explains why he was late the last two days...because others can't drive in the rain, apparently. Plus, Colin himself was in a wreck a short time ago. As you can see, his car ain't okay, but he is.

Honestly don't know who is looking forward to this, outside of people who punish themselves with politics all the time.

It's a bunch of hooey, but it's fun - court battles between witches, or a witch and a warlock, anyway.

The State Board of Education takes up a key ISTEP question, even as the governor attempted to quell a controversy over an expected drop in ISTEP scores.

Ball State is one of the universities where fewer people are studying to become teachers. But a new report from economists at the school suggests there is not an actual shortage of teachers in the state.

We probably only did this story because it's a Simon Owen story, and he talks much better than Mike or I do. When we use British slang, we just sound silly.

The co-op that specializes in higher end outdoors equipment says it will be closed on Black Friday. Yep, a store of any kind closed on the biggest shopping day of the year, because REI believes its employees (and the rest of us) should get outside and have fun instead. No, really, that's what they said.

2 segments back to back here, but both dealing with the same summer study committee; the education panel approved a series of recommendations on addressing the teacher shortage and on future versions of ISTEP.
