Lane Restrictions in Place on Riverside Drive

0
Drivers may want to take note when traveling in downtown Evansville today, as there’s construction taking place on Riverside Drive.

The City of Evansville Engineer’s Office is restricting the east and westbound lanes of Riverside Drive between Court Street to the east side of Cherry Street until the morning of November 6th.

These restrictions are in place due to the old surface of the road being removed to make way for repaving.

Emergency vehicles will be able to pass through, but traffic could be stalled for commuters as the day goes on.

Drivers are encouraged to seek alternative routes during the work and be mindful of workers in the area.

 

Some Indiana State Parks to Close For Deer Reductions

Some Indiana State Parks to Close For Deer Reductions

17 Indiana state parks will temporarily close for controlled deer reductions in the coming weeks.

Two different efforts will happen on November 12th and 13th and the second one happens November 26th and 27th.

That means the select state parks will close to the general public the evening before the efforts. The only impacted park in our area is Lincoln State Park.

DNR biologists say deer reduction is necessary every year because it ensures the habitat is safe for all plants and animals.

Below is a list of state parks to close:

  • Brown County
  • Chain O’Lakes
  • Clifty Falls
  • Fort Harrison
  • Harmonie
  • Indiana Dunes
  • Lincoln, Ouabache
  • Potato Creek
  • Prophetstown
  • Shades
  • Shakamak
  • Summit Lake
  • Tippecanoe River
  • Turkey Run
  • Versailles
  • Whitewater Memorial.

EVSC Secretary Receives November Cause for Applause

0

Lincoln School Secretary Kristina Hicks is the November recipient of the EVSC’s Cause for Applause award. The award seeks to recognize individuals who go above and beyond their normal job responsibilities.

Hicks was nominated by a coworker at Lincoln who wrote about the great things Hicks does for the school, its students and its staff.

According to her nominator, Hicks continually goes above and beyond her job responsibilities as a school secretary to be involved in what students are doing at the school. For example, Hicks often purchases costumes, makeup and more for student performances at Lincoln. She also took it upon herself to make sure student performers received free t-shirts for their school performance.

“She was so excited to deliver the shirts to our students,” said her nominator, “which was a big surprise to them since having a show-shirt is a big deal to student performers.”

The nominator goes on to explain the huge impact Hicks has on the school each and every day. “Her dedication to this school and our students is inspiring. Her enthusiasm when our students achieve something, great or small, fills their little hearts with pride. I can say with confidence that Kristina is not only a friend – she is a cheerleader, a silent partner, a disciplinarian, a nurse, a hugger, and the first smile I see to start my school day.”

Anyone can nominate an employee of the EVSC for the award. Deadline for nominations is the third Friday of each month. To nominate an EVSC employee, go to www.evscschools.com and click on About Us and see Cause for Applause under Community. Paper forms are available at the schools for those without access to the Internet.

Justices Won’t Hear Beagle Death Case Against DNRC

0

Katie Stancome for www.theindianalawyer.

Indiana Supreme Court justices declined to hear a case in which a woman sued the Department of Natural Resources after her pet beagle was killed by a concealed raccoon trap at Versailles State Park.

In December 2011, Melodie Liddle was walking her dogs, including her beagle, Copper, through the state park. During their walk, Copper became ensnared in a raccoon trap set by Harry Bloom, a park security officer who had been authorized to set raccoon traps pursuant to a DNR-issued emergency rule.

Though she tried to set the dog free, Liddle was unsuccessful and Copper died while still in the trap. Liddle sued DNR representatives in their individual and official capacities, seeking various forms of relief, including the declaratory judgment that the emergency rules could not be used to issue trapping permits and damages related to Copper’s death. She received almost $500 in damages for the dog’s fair market value, but her remaining claims could not stand.

The Indiana Court of Appeals found Liddle’s claims were moot in Melodie Liddle v. Cameron F. Clark, et al., 49A04-1707-MI-1662, further determining that the dog’s sentimental value could not be considered in the calculation of damages.

The case was one of 11 transfer petitions the court rejected last week.

Justices granted transfer and ruled in Campbell Hausfeld/Scott Fetzer Company v. Paul Johnson, 64A03-1705-CT-984, in which the Indiana Court of Appeals reversed a trial court’s grant of partial summary judgment to a tool manufacturer sued after a man lost his eye while using one of the manufacturer’s products.

The high court on Thursday found the man’s misuse of the tool in question was the cause of his injuries and was a complete defense to his product liability claim, remanding the appellate court’s decision.

The transfer list for the week ending Nov. 2 can be found here.

EAGLES HOSTING NCAA II TOURNAMENT USI is 2nd seed, gets first regional since 1982

0

For the second time in three years, the 16th-ranked University of Southern Indiana men’s soccer team has received an at-large bid to the NCAA Division II Tournament. The Screaming Eagles will be hosting the Midwest Regional for the first time since 1982.

The Midwest Regional field will feature third-seeded Saginaw Valley State University (9-2-6) versus sixth-seeded Ashland University (7-9-3) Thursday at 7 p.m. with the winner to play USI Saturday at 1 p.m. SVSU and Ashland are members of the Great Lakes Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (GLIAC).

The Midwest Region title game will be played in Hays, Kansas, and hosted by the Central Region’s Fort Hays State University. The Midwest Region champion will play the winner of the Central Regional, which features 10th-ranked Fort Hays State (15-2-1), winner of the Mid-American Intercollegiate Athletic Association (MIAA) and Northeastern State University (15-2-1), also a member of the MIAA, in the quarterfinals of the NCAA II Tournament in Hays. Dates and times for the regional championship game are to be announced.

The top half of the Midwest Regional bracket is being hosted by 22nd-ranked and top-seeded Tiffin University (15-4-0). Tiffin, the winner of the Great Midwest Athletic Conference Tournament, will play the winner of the fourth-seeded Ohio Valley University (16-5-0), the runner-up in the G-MAC, and fifth-seeded Maryville University (10-4-4), the GLVC Tournament champion.

USI is coming off its first Great Lakes Valley Conference regular season championship since 1990, posting a 13-3-1 overall record and an 11-1-1 mark in the GLVC. The squad bowed out of the GLVC Tournament in the quarterfinals when it lost to Rockhurst University, 3-1.

The NCAA II Tournament appearance is the third in the history of the program for USI. The Eagles got by Quincy University on penalty kick before falling to Rockhurst University in 2016. USI lost its first appearance to Oakland University at Strassweg Field in 1982.

Coverage of all of the Eagles’ action in the NCAA II Midwest Regional, including links for live stats and GLVC Sports Network, can be found on GoUSIEagles.com. More information about the NCAA II Men’s Soccer Tournament is on NCAA.com, including the bracket for the entire 38-team field.

The NCAA II Tournament semifinals and final are scheduled for November 29 and December 1 at Highmark Stadium in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.

Chicago Live In Concert May 7th

0
Legendary Rock Band
Chicago
Coming to Aiken Theatre
Chicago is an American rock band formed in 1967 in Chicago, IL and now in their 51st consecutive year of touring! They have recorded 36 albums and sold over 100,000,000 records. See the legendary band Chicago at the Aiken Theatre on May 7.

Chicago is performing a show this year unlike any other that they’ve done before. They will perform their historic album, Chicago II in its entirety as the first set of the concert. While some artists have performed an entire record as their complete show, for Chicago, this will only be the first set before intermission.

Chicago II, like our first release, is a double album, and contains the hits “25 Or 6 To 4,” “Make Me Smile,” “Wake Up Sunshine” and “Colour My World,” the #1 song for weddings and proms for more than 40 years.
The second set will be the “world’s longest encore,” as the band jokingly refers to it, filled with their greatest hits. This concert will be the band’s longest show ever.
