Hangers, EVSC Clothing Resource to Host Celebration

0
Wednesday, October 17
1:00 p.m.
Hangers is located on the backside of the Academy of Innovative Studies Campus (entrance off Wedeking Ave.)
Hangers will host a celebration with State Farm. State Farm announced $25,000 to benefit Hangers last week.  The October 17th celebration includes a check presentation and local State Farm representatives.

$25,000 to Benefit Hangers from State Farm Grant

The EVSC Foundation is pleased to announce an award of $25,000 from State Farm’s Neighborhood Assist program to benefit Hangers, a clothing resource that provides clothing and hygiene supplies for nearly 2,500 EVSC students every year. The grant, currently in its seventh year, inspires and empowers people to turn caring into doing.

To receive the grant, the EVSC Foundation first had to submit a grant proposal which was selected as a finalist out of thousands of nationwide submissions. Once a finalist, the EVSC Foundation competed against 199 other finalists to receive the highest number of votes. The public could vote 10 times a day, every day for 10 days for their favorite charitable cause.

“Hundreds of supporters voted, shared social media posts, and cheered for Hangers to win,” said Maureen Barton, EVSC Foundation executive director. “When you witness students saying, ‘Everything I own is in this bag.’ or ‘may I take another toothbrush for my sister because we share?’ the cause speaks for itself and the community responded.”

The $25,000 grant allows Hangers to purchase additional clothing and supplies for students, helping to ensure all students have the necessary clothing and supplies to be successful in school whether they are experiencing a short-term transition, house fire, poverty, or affected by homelessness.

“At any given time, any one of us may need a helping hand and that is what Hangers does,” said Dave Schutte, director of Hangers. “State Farm and our community’s support positions us to act as a valuable resource for EVSC students and families.”

According to Barton, the impact of Hangers goes beyond the student—it reaches families, volunteers, team members, local businesses, and the EVSC family. Hangers helps reduce barriers so students can focus on what is important…their education.”

Hangers accepts new and gently-used clothing and financial contributions. Hangers also offers volunteer opportunities and tours for organizations looking to support students. Hangers is located at the EVSC’s Academy for Innovative Studies, 2319 Stringtown Road (entrance off Wedeking Avenue) and is open Monday through Thursday from 8:00 a.m. – 12 p.m. for donation drop-offs.

“This grant is truly a reflection of our great school corporation and community,” Barton said. “The outpouring support affirms that Hangers is truly making a difference in the lives of students. We would like to extend a big ‘Thank You’ to State Farm, our community and the EVSC family for their amazing support,” said Barton.

USI wins 10th with 2-0 victory

0

The University of Southern Indiana men’s soccer team reached double-digits in wins for the third-straight season after posting a 2-0 victory over the University of Missouri-St. Louis Sunday afternoon at Strassweg Field. The Screaming Eagles see their record go to 10-2-1 overall and 8-1-1 GLVC, while the Tritons fall to 5-8-0, 4-6-0 GLVC.

USI sealed the victory during the first half when the Eagles scored a pair of goals 18 seconds apart. Junior midfielder Sean Rickey (Columbia, Illinois) posted his 10th goal of the season at 39:01 on a low blast from outside the box to make the score 1-0. Freshman midfielder Ryan Nevins(St. Peters, Missouri) assisted on the goal.

The Eagles wrapped up the 10th win of the year when freshman midfielder Drew Domalewski (Wentzville, Missouri) recorded his third tally of the season at 39:19 off a long pass from the midfield by Nevins to give USI a daunting 2-0 advantage.

In the second half, the Eagles’ defense kept the Tritons at bay as sophomore goalkeeper Justin Faas(Carmel, Indiana) posted his 10th win and sixth shutout of the season. Faas made three saves and faced five shots in the win.

The Eagles continue the four-match homestand Friday when they host Rockhurst University at 7:30 p.m. The Hawks entered today’s action versus the University of Indianapolis with a 5-5-2 overall record, 4-3-2 GLVC.

Rockhurst leads the all-time series with USI, 20-3-1, dating back to 1997. The Hawks also have the lead in the last five matches, winning all five, including last year’s match that ended in a 1-0 Rockhurst victory in Kansas City, Missouri.

Late goal boosts Eagles to 1-0 win

0

University of Southern Indiana women’s soccer senior forward Kennedy Moore(Evansville, Indiana) scored at 81:48 to give the Screaming Eagles a 1-0 victory over the University Missouri-St. Louis Sunday afternoon at Strassweg Field. USI goes to 8-5-2 overall and 6-3-1 GLVC, while UMSL watched its record go to 3-9-1, 2-7-1 GLVC.

Moore did it all to get the Eagles’ lone tally of the match. She started the play by throwing the ball in, and after recovering the ball outside the box, put away the rebound of her own shot for the eventual game-winner and her first goal of the season.

The Eagles had the advantage for most of the match, outshooting the Tritons, 20-10, and posting a 9-7 advantage in corner kicks.

USI senior goalkeeper Emily Hopkins (Greenfield, Indiana) and the Eagles’ defense made the goal stand up for the eighth victory of the year. Hopkins moved into third all-time at USI in shutouts (16.3) with her fourth of the season, making four saves against 10 total UMSL shots.

The victory keeps the USI post-season hopes and a shot at hosting a GLVC Tournament first round game alive. USI ends the day in a five-way tie for fourth (.650 winning percentage) with Truman State University, Maryville University, Quincy University, and Bellarmine University. Truman State and Quincy have the tie-breaker over USI after defeating the Eagles earlier in the season.

The Eagles continue the four-match homestand Friday when they host Rockhurst University at 5 p.m. The Hawks are 8-5-1 overall and 7-3-0 GLVC after defeating the University of Indianapolis, 2-1, at home this afternoon.

Rockhurst leads the all-time series with USI, 12-1-0, dating back to 2005. The Hawks also have had the upper hand the last five meetings, winning all five.

“IS IT TRUE” OCTOBER 15, 2018

9
We hope that today’s “IS IT TRUE” will provoke honest and open dialogue concerning issues that we, as responsible citizens of this community, need to address in a rational and responsible way? 
IS IT TRUE we recently posted our non-scientific but trendy “Readers Poll” question asking our readers “Do you agree with Councilman Jonathan Weaver that the City of Evansville is having serious cash flow problems”? …that 257 CCO readers voted in this poll?  …that 211 people voted “YES”, 27 people voted “NO” and 19 said they had “NO IDEA”?
IS IT TRUE during the recent budget hearing the At-Large Evansville City Council member and Finance Chairman Jonathon Weaver warned members of City Council that the City has a $13 million deficit so far this year? …despite this warning members of City Council still voted 8-1 to approved Mayor Winnecke’s 2019 City budget? …that Mr. Weaver was the only City Council member to vote against the 2019 City budget? …that the 2019 City budget has been increased by 7% over this year’s budget?
IS IT TRUE we are extremely disappointed that the two conservatives City Councilman (Justin Elpers (R) and G. John Hayden, CPA (R) didn’t heed Mr. Weaver’s warning concerning the City of Evansville current cash flow problems?  …we also somewhat surprised that eight (8) Council members also voted for Mayor Winnecke’s 2019 budget without making any meaningful amendments to the 2019 City budget?
IS IT TRUE because of the 8-1 vote on the 2019 City budget we are told that many people are now expecting that every member of the current Evansville City Council will have someone to run against them in the 2019 City election? …it looks like members of City Council will now be put in a position to defend why they voted on other issues that affected our quality of lives during the last four (4) years?
IS IT TRUE we find it interesting that the local area Chamber of Commerce decided not to make a political endorsement in the Vanderburgh County Commission race?  …we are told that Mayor Winnecke lobbied hard to get his hand-chosen candidate Mike Duckworth to get the Chamber of Commerce political endorsement for County Commissioner?  …we hear that several people feel because Mayor couldn’t convince the local Chamber of Commerce to support Mike Duckworth for Vanderburgh County Commissioner is a sign of political weakness?
IS IT TRUE we also have been told that last week Mayor Winnecke and his wife held a political fundraiser for Mike Duckworth?  …we hear that the turnout for this political event was less than impressive?
IS IT TRUE we also been told that many supporters of Mayor Winnecke feel that he will be re-elected?  …that we also been told that there has been a discussion among a group of people that feel the need to review the past decisions made by Mayor Winnecke since he been in office? …we are told that several members of this group feel that the possibility of Mayor Winnecke being elected to a third (3rd) term could be questionable because of his excessive spending habits?
IS IT TRUE we have been informed by one our loyal reader and poster that the former Executive Director of ECHO Housing Corporation is asking $599,000 for the home that she owns?  …that our poster alleges that this home is only assessed at $294,000? …if this statement is true we wonder if the Vanderburgh County Assessor can explain why his office assessed this home for $294,000 and the owners feel that it’s worth $599,000?

IS IT TRUE we are wondering who is funding the current construction work now being done on the old boat dock once used by Casino Aztar? …we have been told that the loading ramp at the old Aztar pavilion has been stripped of exterior siding and roofing? …it now appears that the former Tropicana loading ramp is being prepped for removal in the very near future?

IS IT TRUE that Vanderburgh County Commissioner Ben Shoulders had his third annual  “Golf Outing”  last Friday?  …that  County Commissioner Ben Shoulders political fundraiser golf scramble was a sellout?  … there were over 30 foursomes and  Mr. Shoulders raised over $40,000 for only one (1) flight in the morning at Helfrich Hills?  …not a bad political fundraiser for a guy who isn’t up for re-election several years from now?

Todays“Readers Poll” question is: Do you feel that every Evansville City Council member will have someone to run against them in the 2019 city election?

AG Curtis Hill Asks U.S. Supreme Court To Affirm Constitutionality Of Indiana Abortion Provisions

AG Curtis Hill Asks U.S. Supreme Court To Affirm Constitutionality Of Indiana Abortion Provisions

Attorney General Curtis Hill today asked the U.S. Supreme Court to review and reverse a lower court’s decision declaring unconstitutional certain provisions of Indiana law regarding abortion and the disposal of fetal remains.

Signed into law in March of 2016 by then-Gov. Mike Pence, House Enrolled Act 1337 contained two requirements that are at issue in this case.

First, the law required clinics and/or other healthcare facilities in possession of aborted or miscarried fetuses to dispose of them either by cremation or interment. Second, HEA 1337 prohibited doctors from performing discriminatory abortions based solely on the race, sex or disability of the child. The Seventh U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that the non-discrimination provision imposed an undue burden on the right to obtain abortions and the fetal disposition provision fulfills no legitimate government objective – even though, with regard to disposal of fetal remains, the Eighth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals has found a virtually identical provision in Minnesota to pass constitutional muster.

“Nothing in the Constitution prohibits states from requiring health facilities to provide an element of basic human dignity in disposing of fetuses,” Attorney General Hill said. “These tiny bodies, after all, are in fact human remains. Further, states have every reason and right to prohibit abortions from being performed simply as a means of selecting the race, sex, or physical condition of a child. The right to abortion declared by our Supreme Court protects only the decision not to bear a child at all, not a right to decide which child to bear. Our nation knows only too well the bitter fruits of such discrimination.”

Bolstering Indiana’s case that these questions warrant review by the nation’s highest court is the fact that the Seventh Circuit initially approved a request by Attorney General Hill for an en banc review of the matter – that is, a hearing before all 11 of the court’s judges in regular active service rather than a three-judge panel from the court. After that approval, however, one judge recused himself from the case, resulting in the court vacate its order for the en banc review.
