Sun Energy Group Files Mining Permit Application
Sun Energy Group Files Mining Permit Application
This came to a surprise to many of the people who thought mining operations were done in their part of northern Spencer county.
The permit application shows they would area mine 312 acres causing quite a shock to their rural lifestyle
Daniel Smith says “It’s peaceful it’s quiet you can have a little property you can do what you want to do and they don’t want the disturbance as well they don’t want the extra traffic, the county roads being torn up the big dirt mounds, the noise, the air pollution, and the noise pollution.â€
The Spencer County Board of Zoning Appeals will look over this application on Thursday at 6 p.m. in the Spencer County Courthouse.
USI CubeSat Satellite Launches Into Space
USI CubeSat Satellite Launches Into Space
The undergraduate student instrument project is part of the engineering department at USI. The idea came from doctor Glen Kissel a faculty member at USI who applied for a $200,000 grant to partner with NASA.
One student shared what his experience was like being involved with the project.
USI CubeSat team member Wyatt Helms “The students were actually recruited by the professor on the project and approached by the professor on the project and asked if they would be interested in joining the project and supporting the project to work on itâ€.
This is the first CubeSat built in the state of Indiana by a public institution.
It launched on SpaceX Dragon cargo spacecraft today and is making its way to the international space station now.
Upon completing that mission the satellite will launch into orbit around the beginning of 2019.

Justices Answer Venue Question In Lifetime License Forfeiture Relief Case
Katie Stancombe for www.theindianalawyer.com
Indiana Supreme Court justices on Wednesday ruled that trial courts have jurisdiction to grant specialized driving privileges as relief from driver’s license forfeitures imposed in other counties.
Daniel Reinhart received two driver’s license suspensions in 2012 and 2015 for habitual traffic violations that occurred in Adams County. He received a third suspension as a lifetime forfeiture after a 2015 felony conviction for driving while suspended as a habitual traffic violator in Noble County.
In 2017, Reinhart petitioned the Adams Superior Court for specialized driving privileges, seeking relief from all three suspensions under Indiana Code section 9-30-16-4. Reinhart was granted his petition, despite the argument that the Adams Superior Court lacked jurisdiction to stay or modify the lifetime forfeiture imposed by the Noble Superior Court. The Indiana Court of Appeals reversed and remanded, instructing the trial court to “vacate that portion of its order related to Reinhart’s Noble County suspension.â€
But the high court affirmed the trial court’s ruling in an attempt “to provide a path forward for those in Reinhart’s position.â€
First, it found that the specialized driving privileges statute established venue requirements and that the Adams Superior Court did not lack subject matter jurisdiction to stay the lifetime license forfeiture imposed by the Noble Superior Court.
It then found that absent a conviction modification, a lifetime license forfeiture under Ind. Code § 9-30-10-16 (2014) would be an administrative suspension.
“We agree with the State that only trial courts may impose criminal judgments,†Judge Mark Massa wrote. “But the ‘required forfeiture of a defendant’s driver’s license [is] a collateral consequence of a guilty plea’ and conviction, ‘not [a] punishment imposed by the court.’â€
“The State’s reading of the statute, by contrast, would require individuals to petition each court from which a lifetime forfeiture arose, increasing exponentially the number of SDP petitions filed and adding to the already-congested dockets of our trial courts,†Massa continued.
Justices further concluded that a conviction modification under Section 16 would result in a court-ordered suspension.
“This conclusion fits logically with Section 3’s venue requirement that a suspended driver seek relief from the court (or courts) that modified the suspended driver’s conviction. As Reinhart notes, the ‘duration of the suspension’ imposed by the court depends ‘on the facts of that particular case, including the nature and severity of the offense, as well as the character of the defendant.’â€
“A nondiscretionary lifetime forfeiture, on the other hand, depends simply on the defendant’s HIV status, not the specific facts of the case or the agreed upon conditions he must fulfill to reduce the sentence,†Massa concluded.
The high court, therefore, affirmed the trial court’s order granting Reinhart’s petition for relief from all three suspensions under Indiana Code section 9-30-16-4 in State of Indiana and Indiana Bureau of Motor Vehicles v. Daniel Reinhart,18S-MI-286.

How to Reduce Holiday Stress…and Chances of a Heart Attack
While the holidays are meant to be a time of joy, they can also be a time of stress. Many may experience conflict, pressure or just feeling overwhelmed by expectations surrounding the holidays. Busy schedules, looming deadlines, plans to spend more money and the pressure of gift giving are a number of factors that can contribute to stress during the holiday season.
According to a study published in the Journal of the American Heart Association, there is an increase in the amount of heart attacks and heart-related deaths during the holiday season, which may be due to stress, delays in seeking medical care, and holiday foods rich in fat, sugar, and salt.*
“Stress can cause short- and long-term effects on the body, and it is associated with high blood pressure, heart disease, diabetes, and obesity,†said Dr. Jarrod Frizzell, a cardiologist with St. Vincent Evansville, part of Ascension, the largest nonprofit health system in the U.S. and the world’s largest Catholic health system.  “It’s important that we monitor our stress levels, particularly during the holidays, and find ways to manage our stress. Pay attention to your body, and learn the warning signs of heart disease. Although the holidays are important times to spend with our family, please don’t delay seeking medical care if you experience signs or symptoms of heart problems. We want to make sure you are around for many more holidays to come.â€
STRATEGIES FOR MANAGING HOLIDAY STRESS:
- Limit spending
-
-
- Set a budget to ensure all your usual expenses are accounted for, and plan for any additional holiday spending including travel plans and parties you may be hosting. Budget for what you have to spend on gifts – be organized and realistic.
- Avoid temptation by limiting the amount of time you spend at stores or the shopping mall. Manage impulsive spending by taking a list of gifts to buy and taking only the amount of cash you need, leaving credit cards at home.
-
- Manage expectations
-
-
- Remember what is important during the holiday season to help manage your expectations. Hosting the perfect party or giving the perfect gift is less important than the quality time spent with loved ones.
- Take some time out to recharge and refocus – be sure that you find time to relax to recharge your body and mind.
-
- Avoid over-indulging
-
-
- Excessive stress raises appetites and cravings for sugary and fatty foods, and chronic drinking can lead to increased stress levels. Aim to maintain a healthy diet during the holidays to avoid weight gain and additional stress.
- Maintain a healthy diet by eating high-protein snacks throughout the day so you don’t over-indulge on one meal. Make simple food swaps, like eating whole-wheat bread instead of white or brown rice instead of white. And be mindful of portion sizes, especially when enjoying seasonal treats.
-
- Go for a walk
-
-
- Regular exercise can help lower stress levels by decreasing tension and boosting and stabilizing your mood. Exercise releases endorphins that can improve your ability to sleep and reduce stress.
-
- Have some fun
-
-
- Laughter stimulates your heart, lungs and muscles, and also releases endorphins. Laughter also goes a long way in helping to lighten your mood and minimizing the stresses associated with this time of year.
