Governor, First Lady Celebrate Opening Day of the Indiana State Fair

0

Indianapolis – Today, Governor Mike Pence and First Lady Karen Pence celebrated opening day of the 2016 Indiana State Fair, commemorating the state’s bicentennial.

“The First Lady and I are thankful to join Hoosiers from across our state to celebrate the opening of the 160th Indiana State Fair,” said Governor Mike Pence. “I can think of no better way to celebrate our state’s 200th birthday and our shared Hoosier heritage than at the Fair. Whether you make a living on the farm or you simply come to learn more about agriculture, this is a great way to celebrate all that makes us uniquely Hoosier. What we make and what we grow is at the heart of our economy and who we are as a people, and I encourage all Hoosiers to stop by the Indiana State Fair and experience this great Hoosier tradition.”

The Governor offered remarks at the Opening Ceremony of the Fair, unveiled Visit Indiana’s Indiana Bicentennial Experience traveling exhibit, toured the First Lady’s 16-print watercolor exhibition at the Indiana Arts Building, met with 4-H members at the Cattle Barn, and handed out free milkshakes to fairgoers at the American Dairy Association of Indiana’s Dairy Bar. Along the way, the Governor and First Lady visited with Hoosier Fair attendees.

The Fair runs for seventeen days, from August 5-21. For more information about the Indiana State Fair, including events, programming, tickets and discounts, visit http://www.indianastatefair.com/.

Area Law Enforcement Agencies Prepare for School Traffic Safety Enforcement

0

 

In the coming days students will be returning to school for the 2016-2017 school year. This will result in a large number of buses on the roads, children walking to school, new bus stop locations, new bus routes, congestion in and around the schools, new student drivers and many other factors to be aware of as our kids return to the classroom.

On Friday, August 05, 2016 the Vanderburgh County Sheriff’s Office, Evansville Police Department and Indiana State Police held a joint news conference at North High School to announce increased Back to School traffic enforcement. Area law enforcement agencies will be stepping up presence and enforcement around schools and along bus routes to help make sure this school year gets off to a safe start. In particular, extra enforcement is scheduled for August 10 and 11 near many of our schools and along major thoroughfares. Sheriff’s deputies, police officers and state troopers will be watching for speeding, unsafe driving behavior, monitoring bus routes for safety issues and enforcing school bus stop arm violations.

Sheriff Dave Wedding explained, “This added law enforcement presence will function as both a deterrent and a reminder to slow down and pay attention. Having personnel stationed near our schools also puts us in a position to respond immediately to any situations that may arise.”

Evansville-Vanderburgh School Corporation schools will begin their first day on Wednesday, August 10, 2016. Corpus Christi School begins on Thursday, August 04, 2016. Resurrection Catholic School and St. Joseph School both begin their first day on Friday, August 12, 2016.

Tips for back to school safety:

  • If bus service is available, please utilize it.
  • Please take pictures of your new student before you get to the school. Do not park in the drop-off zones of any of the schools to take your child into class.
  • Utilize the proper restraint systems in your vehicle.
  • Keep your speed to a minimum and pay extra attention in an around school zones and near school bus loading areas.
  • Know when a school bus stops and its red stop sign or flashing lights appear children are boarding or exiting the bus. Be on the lookout for children crossing the street even after the bus has moved on.
  • Please, no cell phone use in the school zones while operating a vehicle and no texting at any time while operating a vehicle.
  • Encourage children getting on and off school buses to be very mindful of surrounding traffic, because the traffic may not be watching for them.
  • Give yourself plenty of time. Do not let the frustration of running late compromise the good driving decisions you make.
  • Please call 911 to report dangerous driving situations.

Next week’s Back to School traffic enforcement comes in advance of a statewide “Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over” blitz, which is scheduled to run from August 12 through September 05, 2016. Enhanced local traffic safety enforcement is made possible by funding provided by the Indiana Criminal Justice Institute (ICJI) through a grant from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).

Reversal: Kroger Must Face Claim For Filling Script In Wrongful Death Case

Reversal: Kroger Must Face Claim For Filling Script In Wrongful Death Case

Dave Stafford for www.theindianalawyer.com

Kroger must face a claim that its potential negligence in filling a prescription contributed to the death of a woman after she sought treatment for acute bronchitis, the Indiana Court of Appeals ruled Thursday in a reversal.

A doctor and his employer who are unnamed in the court record prescribed Levofloxacin to Sharon K. Clearwaters despite knowing she had a chronic heart condition for which she was taking Amiodarone and Warfarin, for which Levofloxacin is counter-indicated. The drug can cause interactions including causing the heart to beat out of rhythm.

The day the prescription was filled at a Kroger pharmacy in December 2012, Clearwaters went into cardiopulmonary arrest and died after taking the Levoflaxacin. Clearwaters’ estate filed a notice of suit in November 2013 against the health care providers and Kroger.

In August 2014, the doctor and his employer settled with David Shelton, the personal representative of Clearwaters’ estate, and they were later dismissed from the complaint. Kroger amended its answer to assert a non-party defense. Kroger argued it is entitled to a credit or set-off from the health care providers’ settlement. Kroger filed a motion for partial summary judgment that was granted by Marion Superior Judge James B. Osborn.

This was error, the Court of Appeals ruled on an interlocutory appeal that was accompanied by an amicus brief on behalf of the Indiana Trial Lawyers Association.

“In this case, the (Indiana Department of Insurance) determined that Kroger was not a qualified health care provider under the Medical Malpractice Act,” Judge Cale Bradford wrote for the panel, reversing in David Shelton, as Personal Representative of the Estate of Sharon K. Clearwaters v. Kroger Limited Partnership I, 49A02-1601-CT-75. “Kroger, therefore, was not exempted from the Comparative Fault Act.” As such, “Kroger was not entitled to receive a credit or set-off with relation to Shelton’s settlement.

“We further instruct the trial court that on remand, Kroger may only seek to limit its potential liability through its asserted non-party defense,” the panel concluded.

Rise Up Captures Tough Allowance

Preemptive Strike Wins 2yo Race 

 HENDERSON, Ky. (Aug. 5, 2016) — Rise Up led all the way to take Ellis Park’s $42,000 seventh race by 3 1/4 lengths Friday in near track-record time under jockey Brian Hernandez Jr.
It was a money-won allowance race with a $50,000 claiming option. But it attracted what might have been the best group of older male horses in one race at Ellis Park in years, with five of the seven starters being stakes-winners.
“This was really a small graded race more than anything,” said Hernandez, who rode Rise Up for trainer Tom Amoss. “But our horse figured. He’s a millionaire. He’s a nice horse, and he’s fast. He had the 1 hole, and like Tom said, he needs the lead. We went ahead and put him on the lead and let him be fast.”
Amoss watched the race while onset  as a analyst on the New York Racing Association’s Saratoga Live broadcast.
“There’s no secret to the kind of horse Rise Up is,” Amoss said by phone during a commercial break. “He’s a horse whose heart gets big if he can make the lead out of the gate. We were able to do that today, and he ran a really good race. He ran them off their feet.
“I love this guy. I’m proud of him. It was his first win of the year, but he has to have things his way. And that makes him tough. It really does.”
Rise Up got away with an uncontested first quarter-mile in 23.63 seconds, then picked up the pace with a 22.42 second-quarter. He had plenty left to down-gear to a final eighth-mile in 12.79 seconds to prevail comfortably while finishing the mile in 1:34.77. That was 36/100th of a second off Looking Cool’s 2014 track record. Rise Up paid $8 to win as the co-second choice.
“The track is quicker. But he ran fast as well,” Hernandez said. “Tom said he has a couple of issues where sometimes he gets a little nervous in the gate and that’s what gets him beat. But he stood in there like a perfect gentleman. And when he left there like he did, I just let him go on and be fast… Then you force whoever is behind you to get to chasing you a little bit and kind of rip the heart out of them more than anything.”
Rise Up, a son of Lockport Harbor owned by Paul Van Doren, now is 9-3-5 in 26 starts, earning $1,074,925.
Ulanbator, winner of last year’s Schaefer Memorial at Indiana Grand, put on the closest heat but still was a couple of lengths back early on under Chris Landeros. 
“I wish there was more speed, for somebody to go get him,” Landeros said of Rise Up. “I didn’t want to take anything away from my horse, because I was already in a position. But I also didn’t want to use it too early. Because I wanted him to finish today. He’s run against some tougher fields, but my main thing was to get his confidence and to let him run late. I wish there had been more pace. But regardless, he ran hard and fought to the end.”
Raagheb and Joe Rocco Jr. rallied to finish another three-quarters of a length back in third, followed by Coin Broker, favored Cougar Ridge, Jessica’s Star and Far Right, last year’s late-running winner of Oaklawn Park’s Smarty Jones Stakes and Grade 3 Southwest and the Arkansas Derby runner-up to Triple Crown winner American Pharoah.
2-Year-Old Watch: Colebrook Strikes Again
Preemptive Strike, ridden by Joe Rocco, led all the way in his second start to capture Friday’s 5 1/2-furlong turf maiden race by a half-length over the promising Dig Charlie Dig in the field of eleven 2-year-olds.
Preemptive Strike is out the same mare as Surgical Strike, winner of the Grade 3 Arlington Classic on grass and Turfway Park’s John Battaglia on Polytrack. Both horses are trained by Ben Colebrook, who will run another one of their relatives, the 2-year-old debut-winning filly Caroline Test, in Saturday’s Ellis Park Juvenile against males.
In his first start, Preemptive Strike, a son of Florida Derby and Blue Grass winner Harlan’s Holiday, stopped badly to lose by 33 lengths on dirt at Churchill Downs.
“I couldn’t believe how bad he ran, because I really love the horse,” Colebrook said. “… He’s always trained like a really nice horse. The family says grass, and Harlan’s Holidays can go either way. But I think we’ll take him to Kentucky Downs and run him in the juvenile stakes down there.”
The victory was particularly gratifying because Preemptive Strike had shipped to Toronto to run in a six-furlong Polytrack race while Colebrook had a filly running in a stakes at Woodbine. 
“There was a hiccup: The Fed-Ex (registration) papers didn’t get there, and they scratched him. So we had to take him all the way back,” the Keeneland-based Colebrook said, adding with a self-deprecating laugh, “I was on thin ice. I needed to win this one for the owner, because that was a big screw up.”
Owner-breeders Beverly Anderson and Ed Seltzer have 16 horses with Colebrook, making them the trainer’s biggest client.
Dig Charlie Dig encountered trouble on the turn before closing well. Afterward, Louisville-based trainer Greg Foley was philosophical. Foley said he didn’t know that Dig Charlie Dig, making his first start, would run well on grass. But he wanted to find out before Kentucky Downs’ short meet next month offers the highest purses in America.
“Maybe they did us a favor.  At the three-eighth pole, he really couldn’t get through there. We had some tough luck, but he ran great,” Foley said, adding of Dig Charlie Dig’s likely next start in a Kentucky Downs maiden race, “Now we run for $140,000. I feel pretty good about it. They kind of have you experimenting now for races over there. If you got one you think can run, you’re silly not to test them a little” on grass.
Racing continues Saturday at 12:50 p.m. Central for Ellis Park’s showcase card featuring the Grade 3 Groupie Doll and the $75,000 Ellis Park Juvenile. As always, admission and parking are free.
