Vectren installs Fiber Optic Wire Posey County Transmission Lines Via Helicopter

                    Vectren Installs Fiber Optic Wire On Posey County Transmission Lines Via Helicopter

Evansville, Ind. – Starting this week, Vectren will begin work to replace existing steel static wire running along a transmission line beginning at its A.B. Brown plant to Mt. Vernon in southern Posey County. This project is intended to expand communication capability between existing electric substations and improve data collection and system performance in Vectren’s transmission system. A helicopter will suspend a two-man crew in the air to complete work on the segment of the transmission line.

Enhancing the older steel wire with new fiber optic static cable allows for more prompt, efficient communication between substations when electric service lines are out or malfunctioning and provides real-time two-way communication back to Vectren’s control centers from the field. Using helicopter assistance reduces impact to residential and commercial properties that lie within the project’s path.

“We will now be able to interconnect instantly with our transmission lines where we’ve traditionally relied on land lines and mobile devices,” said Brad Ellsworth, president of Vectren Energy Delivery of Indiana-South. “Making such enhancements to our technology in the field helps further improve the service our customers receive.”

The helicopter aided replacement effort is expected to last through mid-November.

AG Files For Emergency Stay In Case Against Beer Wholesaler

AG Files For Emergency Stay In Case Against Beer Wholesaler

IL for www.theindianalawyer.com

Indiana Attorney General Greg Zoeller is seeking an emergency stay after the Indiana Court of Appeals denied the state’s motion for a stay in the case against an affiliate of a popular beer wholesaler.

Zoeller’s office announced Monday that it would seek an emergency stay from the Indiana Supreme Court, as well as transfer, in its case against Spirited Sales LLC, an affiliate of Monarch Beverage Co., Inc, Indiana’s largest beer and wine wholesaler. When Spirited Sales applied for a liquor wholesaler permit in 2014, the Indiana Alcohol and Tobacco Commission denied the application because state law prohibits beer and wine wholesalers from also wholesaling liquor as a protection against monopolies, Zoeller’s office said in a release Monday.

The attorney general’s office defended the ATC when Spirited Sales took the case to court, arguing that the commission had correctly applied the law. However, the Marion Superior Court overruled the ATC in August and ordered that it issue the permit to Spirited Sales.

“There have been many attempts to change Indiana’s statute regarding the sale of alcohol in our state legislature where this policy belongs,” Zoeller said in a statement. “While I respect the trial court’s work on this complicated case, a judicial change to the state’s policy requires the Indiana Supreme Court’s review.”

Zoeller then filed a motion for a stay on the trial court’s order, but the Indiana Court of Appeals denied that motion in late September.

Join us virtually for the 5th Annual Bolt for the Heart Family 5k Run/ Walk; Proceeds buy AEDs for ISP patrol cars

0

Last year, Bolt for the Heart (BFTH) teamed up with the Indiana State Police to promote and participate in the Thanksgiving Day 5K Run/Walk to raise money to equip ISP patrol cars with lifesaving AED’s. The event, held in Carmel Indiana, raised enough money to purchase 55 AED’s which were placed in ISP cars that patrol Indiana’s more rural counties. Since that time, BFTH has worked with another contributing partner, IU Health, who donated funding to purchase an additional 15 AED’S.

New for this year, BFTH is offering everyone to participate in a virtual race that can be completed anywhere and on your time schedule. Visit website here: http://boltfortheheart.com/events/virtual-race-5k/. Like the event held in Carmel on Thanksgiving Day, all proceeds go to purchasing AED’s.

Racing begins November 1st and runs through the end of December. Entries are $20.00 and include a 2016 Custom Finisher Medal and Commemorative Race Bib.

When you finish, send BFTH a photo or two with your finish time and use the hashtag #LetsBolt on your social media posts.

“We, as a department, have been blessed by the caring generosity of the Bolt for the Heart organization and their stated goal of ensuring each and every state police road patrol commission is equipped with an AED,” stated Indiana State Police Superintendent Doug Carter.  “Now, with the Virtual Run, we have the opportunity to show our gratitude by encouraging friends, family, co-workers and other Public Safety professionals in our communities to commit to participating in the 2016 BFTH 5K walk/run anytime during the month of November and December.”

AEDs are predominately used on patients who suffer sudden cardiac arrest. Among the successes of AED use in the state of Indiana is Danny Rhoad, a 13-year-old Westfield boy whose life was saved by an AED that was stationed at Grand Park in May. He was playing baseball when a ball struck him in the chest. Coaches ran to a concession stand, which had an AED, and used the defibrillator to restore Rhoad’s heartbeat.

“Three other instances in which an AED was applied were administered by an Indiana state police officer, and two of the patients were successfully resuscitated,” said Pierre Twer, president of Bolt for the Heart. “In these three examples, the heart was stopped. In two of these examples, these people have gone on to live meaningful lives. And that’s because of AED’s being available to troopers. That’s why this is so valuable and important to us.”

Rodney Walker, teacher at Highland Elementary School, was awarded the EVSC’s Cause for Applause award for November. The award seeks to recognize individuals who go above and beyond their normal job responsibilities.

Walker was nominated for the monthly award by fellow teachers Barb Lynn and Becky Ulrich. In their nomination letter, Lynn and Ulrich said Walker “has a heart of gold,” consistently working to make a difference for students at Highland and in the entire Central High School district.

Lynn and Ulrich site many examples of Walkers generosity, including purchasing shoes and supplies for the school’s basketball team, mentoring high school students, providing rides to doctor’s appointments, donating furniture and other items for graduating seniors and much more. “Truly, this individual works tirelessly for the good of others,” wrote Lynn and Ulrich. “We happily put our hands together to celebrate his work and commitment to students.”

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.
