OTTERS SHOW GRIT EN ROUTE TO SERIES SWEEP

0

 Facing off for the finale of a critical three game series, the Evansville Otters grinded to secure a 7-6 victory and series sweep of the Windy City Thunderbolts on Thirsty Thursday at Bosse Field. The scoring of the game kicked off in the bottom of the second inning when Chris Breen crushed a mammoth of a solo homerun that may still be sailing. Windy City would charge right back in the very next frame, sparked from a three run outburst that saw six Thunderbolts reach base safely. Nevertheless, Evansville displayed their resiliency through storming back to tie the game at 3-3 in the third, highlighted by a high flying two-run homerun from Josh Allen that amazingly left the entire stadium. Three hits and a walk for the Windy City offense would translate to two additional runs in the sixth. However, Evansville would save another rally for the Thunderbolts. Following back to back singles, Chris Breen lined a single to center that would drive in a run. Although, the play wouldn’t end that simply as a bad throw towards second base and a fielding misplay in center field led to two errors and a little league style homerun for Breen, which gave the Otters a 6-5 advantage. After tying the game in the eighth, the Thunderbolts were finally vanquished after Christopher Riopedre lined a clutch go-ahead RBI single in the latter half of the inning. Randy McCurry would slam the door on Windy City in the ninth, while notching his league leading 13th save of the season.

Next, the Otters will go on the road tomorrow and begin a three game series against the Lake Erie Crushers.

Drive Safe and Sober this Fourth of July

0
The Evansville-Vanderburgh County Traffic Safety Partnership, the Governor’s Council on Impaired and Dangerous Driving and the Indiana Criminal Justice Institute (ICJI) would like to remind all Indiana motorists to celebrate the Fourth of July responsibly by driving safe and sober.

Sheriff David Wedding stated, “Friends and family will soon be getting together to celebrate Independence Day. With all the excitement and fun, keeping an eye on an intoxicated friend may not seem like a priority. We ask that you don’t wait for someone else to take action if a person is about to drive away drunk. By refusing to ignore the problem you can save a life.” Sheriff Wedding added, “Make transportation plans now if you know you will be drinking this Fourth of July weekend. Don’t put your friends in the position of having to take your keys.”

During the 2015 Independence Day holiday from July 3 through July 7 there were over 960 traffic collisions in Indiana. Of those, at least 64 were alcohol-related. In total, 43 Hoosier motorists were injured and two (2) lost their lives as a direct result of an impaired driver.

Evansville Police Chief Billy Bolin stated, “The Police Department and the Sheriff’s Office work hard all year long to inform the public about the dangers of impaired driving. Many heed the message, while a few choose to ignore it.” Chief Bolin explained, “For those drivers who refuse to listen, a DUI arrest or a fatal crash are the only two alternatives.”

A sobriety checkpoint is planned for this Saturday night. The Sheriff’s Office, Evansville Police Department and Indiana State Police will conduct a joint sobriety checkpoint on July 02, 2016 from 11:30 pm until 3:00 am. Throughout the extended holiday weekend sheriff’s deputies, police officers and state troopers will be aggressively looking for drunk drivers and will arrest anyone caught driving impaired.  If you have any doubt about your sobriety, please do not get behind the wheel. If you do choose to drive impaired, expect to be arrested. No warnings. No excuses.

Funding for local impaired driving enforcement is provided by the Indiana Criminal Justice Institute (ICJI) through a grant from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration(NHTSA).

EDITORIAL: CITY COUNTY OBSERVER SOUNDS THE ALARM ABOUT THE RAMIFICATION G-2016-21.

7

The City-County Observer’s staff was alerted by a passing comment made by Dr. H. Dan Adams at Monday’s City Council meeting that something “hush-hush” may be afoot.  When the Good Doctor asked his fellow Councilors to carefully read the material in their packets concerning Ordinance G-2016-21, which is sponsored by Councilmen Mosby, Weaver, and McGinn, our curiosity was piqued.  It was no small feat to track down the proposed ordinance, and after days we finally got a copy.  Attached below is the link of Ordinance G-2016-21 link for your review.

Ordinance G-2016-21

Please note that the words stricken from the original  ordinance have lines through them and the underlined words are the ones to be added to it.

Much of the rest of the proposed ordinance is devoted to putting numerous limitations on allowing citizens to ask questions or speak to Council concerning matters that come before it.  We believe this dances around the edges of infringing the First Amendment rights of Evansvillians.  We understand that there is a practical need to limit speaking time in instances when an item is controversial, but holding the option of refusing to hear the voice of the people being regulated is NOT in the best interest of the public.

We are concerned that transparency and accountability are being sacrificed to “efficiency and collaboration.” There are more and more items unanimously passed by Council without discussion and/or dissent.   The banning of obscene language, vulgar behavior, and use of signs and posters is understandable.  Muzzling the people who elected them to serve is NOT understandable.  We hope that the mainstream media will join us in calling for the restoration of citizen participation in government, now that we have sounded the alarm about the ramifications of G-2016-21.  We can’t wait to read  our readers comments concerning the amending of city ordinance G-2016-21.

Judge: Indiana’s Parenthood Statutes Violate Constitutional Rights Of Same-Sex Couples

0

Marilyn Odendahl for www.theindianalawyer.com

Indiana married same-sex couples have won the right to both be listed as parents on their children’s birth certificates.

The U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Indiana struck down the state’s parenthood statutes Thursday as violating the Equal Protection and Due Process clauses of the 14th Amendment in the consolidated lawsuit of Henderson, et al. v. Adams, et al., 1:15-cv-00220.

Judge Tanya Walton Pratt granted summary judgement for the lesbian couples who brought the suit. She wrote, “The public interest in serving the best interests of the child will not be harmed by injunctive relief but actually will be furthered by legally recognizing two parents for children and providing stability for children and families.”

The couples filed the suit because the state would only allow the birth mother to be listed on the certificate and did not include the second parent. They asserted the state parenthood statutes violated the 14th Amendment because they create a presumption of parenthood for men married to birth mothers but not for women married to birth mothers, thus stigmatize the children born to same-sex couples as children born out of wedlock.

In particular, the lesbian couples argued the state’s refusal to grant parenthood status to female spouses of artificially inseminated birth mothers while granting the status of parenthood to male spouses of artificially inseminated birth mothers violates the Equal Protection Clause.

In cases of heterosexual couples who become pregnant through the aid of the third-party sperm donor, the state will presume parenthood of the child to the husband. This same presumption is not afforded to the female, same-sex spouse of a birth mother who also becomes pregnant in the same manner.

The state countered the parenthood statutes are applied equally to all male and female spouses of birth mothers. A husband who is not the biological father of the child should not be listed on the birth certificate because the birth mother should acknowledge she is not married to the father of her child when she has been artificially inseminated. In such a case, the husband would have to adopt the child to be listed on the certificate and recognized.

Pratt found the state’s argument to be inconsistent with common sense.

“Common sense say that an artificially-inseminated woman married to a man who has joined in the decision for this method of conception and who intends to treat the child as his own, would indicate that she is married to the father of her child,” she wrote. “Why would she indicate otherwise?”

Indiana Attorney General Greg Zoeller released a statement Thursday saying his office is reviewing the ruling and has not yet determined whether it will appeal or seek a stay of the ruling.

County health department defendants were also dismissed from the lawsuit by Pratt Thursday, leaving the Indiana State Department of Health commisioner as the defendant.

Geary Predicts That Ellis “We’ll Have One Of The Best Meets Ever”

0

HENDERSON, Ky. (May 31, 2016) — Ellis Park president Ron Geary, well-versed as a horse player and handicapper, is betting that this summer will be his best meet since buying the track nestled on the Ohio River in 2006.

In fact, by featuring enhanced purses for horsemen, restoration of a 2-year-old stakes and con- tinued player-focused emphasis, Geary expects the 30-date session that runs July 2-Sept. 5 to be the strongest in more than 20 years.

“We’ll have one of the best meets we’ve ever had,” Geary said. “We had almost 8.3 horses per race last year, and we think we’ll have an opportunity to improve on that this year. The momen- tum has been building for this for several months and now it’s looking like reality, which is ex- tremely exciting.”

Thanks to burgeoning business with its Instant Racing parimutuel games and a $1.35 million contribution by Kentucky Downs, Ellis Park’s races will offer purses averaging $210,000 a day for its 30-date summer meet, Geary said. That’s up from $155,000 a year ago at the 1 1/8-mile track nicknamed “the Pea Patch” because of its signature soybeans growing in the infield.

“I’m incredibly pumped about our upcoming meet – it will be outstanding,” said racing secretary Dan Bork. “I think we’ll have a great number of quality horses running here. More people are interested in running with us than ever before, and our jockey colony shapes up as its strongest ever. With Ellis becoming stronger in the summer, it also helps the whole circuit.”

Maiden races for Kentucky-bred horses (the majority of horses racing) will have pots of $38,000 – up $9,000 from last year, while allowance races will range from $39,000 to $42,000, including the supplements from the Kentucky Thoroughbred Development Fund for horses born and sired in the commonwealth.

“Those numbers are going to make me seriously consider whether it’s worth going to Saratoga or Del Mar,” said Louisville-based trainer Dale Romans, whose two-time Grade 1 winner Brody’s Cause first raced at Ellis Park. “I just hope more people don’t start staying behind and it gets tougher to break a maiden at Ellis. I mean, Brody did get beat at Ellis.

“A lot of horses get beat in 2-year-old races and go on to be top horses. It’s the time of year for 2-year-olds to get started, seems the most productive. And it’s a good safe racetrack to get started on. With this kind of money, I’ll definitely leave more horses in Kentucky this summer.”

Scott Blasi, chief assistant to newly-elected Hall of Fame trainer Steve Asmussen, said the en- hanced money makes Ellis an alternative starting point for quality horses.

“It will give you a good option for horses that aren’t quite ready to go to Saratoga yet, that are still here in the development stage,” Blasi said.

The stakes schedule is highlighted by the $100,000 Groupie Doll for fillies and mares at a mile. The Grade 3 stakes was renamed for the 2012-2013 Breeders’ Cup Filly & Mare Sprint and two- time Eclipse Award champion who raced three times at the track, including victory in the 2011 stakes and third in 2013 when it was known as the Gardenia.

Also on that Aug. 6 card is the return of the $75,000 Ellis Park Juvenile, giving Kentucky a much-needed 2-year-old stakes in the summer. The seven-furlong Juvenile promises to be well- populated, given the strength of Ellis’ maiden races, which last year launched Brody’s Cause (winner of Keeneland’s Grade 1 Breeders’ Futurity last fall and Blue Grass this spring), Grade 2 winners Venus Valentine and Dothraki Queen, Grade 3 winner Mo Tom and G2 Fair Grounds Oaks runner-up Dream Dance.

Ellis Park’s juvenile program also produced future Breeders’ Cup winners Cat Thief (Classic), Boston Harbor (Juvenile) and Caressing (Juvenile Fillies), older male champion Lawyer Ron and Grade 1 winners Noble’s Promise, Request for Parole, Turallure, Pure Fun, Pure Clan, Java’s War and Richter Scale.

“I’m thrilled,” said Kenny McPeek, trainer of Noble’s Promise, Java’s War and Pure Fun and whose five wins with 2-year-olds led the 2015 Ellis meet. “We’re going to point a bunch of young horses there. It’s right up our alley, and it gives us more motivation to keep these horses local.”

Said Ron Moquett: “Ellis has always been a pet meet of mine. We love Ellis. Now that they’ve got the money working the right direction, it’s enough to make our owners run more horses there. I’ll leave some good horses here to try to run. The Pea Patch just got very interesting.”

Instant Racing wagering at Ellis set a record each of the past three months, including April’s $7.17 million, according to Kentucky Horse Racing Commission statistics.

“The last couple of years now, we’ve started to have very significant growth, about 50 percent a year,” Geary said. “Every dollar that’s bet on Instant Racing, a portion goes to the purse fund. The parimutuel taxes on Instant Racing contribute to getting extra money to the Kentucky Thor- oughbred Development Fund. Between those, it’s really done well.”

As part of the tracks’ strengthening relationship, Kentucky Downs is marketing and distributing Ellis’ simulcast signal nationally. The all-grass track in Franklin, which pioneered parimutuel wa- gering on historical horse racing in the commonwealth, also is transferring $1.35 million to Ellis for purses to help build the circuit — an arrangement endorsed by the Kentucky division of the Horsemen’s Benevolent & Protective Association, the group representing the state’s owners and trainers. When Churchill Downs balked at any overlapping days between its September meet

and Kentucky Downs, Geary resolved the thorny situation by giving Sept. 3 — the Saturday be- fore Labor Day — to Kentucky Downs for its opener. Ellis’ closing weekend is Sept. 2, 4 and 5.

“We were trying to make it a win-win,” said Geary, whose minority partner in Ellis is Saratoga Harness Racing Inc. “And I think it did. I think it will work out really well and help the circuit be stronger during the summer and the fall.

“The last several years we’ve worked hard to get the track in the best shape. We put down 2,000 tons of sand and clay this year on top of what we did two years ago. And we’ve worked hard on getting our turf in top shape. The horsemen like that their horses leave here in great shape. We’ve had some outstanding horses going on to national accomplishments after starting right here at little Ellis Park.”

JUDGE EXPANDS INVESTIGATION INTO HILLY CLINTON’S DEALINGS WITH FOUNDATION DONORS

0

by  BRENDAN BORDELON for THE NATIONAL REVIEW

E-mails ordered released last Wednesday could contain evidence that Hillary Clinton kept a secret, off-the-books schedule of meetings with foreign foundation donors as Secretary of State. A Federal Judge on Wednesday ordered the State Department to produce the e-mail records of Hillary Clinton’s scheduler during her tenure as secretary of state, expanding an investigation being pursued by conservative nonprofit Citizens United into the overlap between Clinton’s official travel and her meetings with foreign Clinton Foundation donors.

Citizens United is slated to receive all e-mails sent to and from Lona Valmoro, Clinton’s State Department scheduler, in the two-week periods before each of 14 international trips Clinton took during her four years in office. David Bossie, president of Citizens United, hopes to confirm suspicions that Clinton maintained an off-the-books schedule, meeting with Clinton Foundation donors on the taxpayer’s dime. “Citizens United wants to know how many overseas dinners Secretary Clinton attended with Clinton Foundation donors that didn’t make it on her schedule,” he says.

Judge Rosemary Collyer, the federal judge presiding over a public-records case brought by Citizens United, was initially hesitant to allow the release of Valmoro’s e-mails, and asked the group to provide one example of an off-the-books meeting with Clinton Foundation donors. As part of a joint filing with the State Department on Monday, Citizens United presented the judge with several pieces of evidence suggesting Valmoro deliberately struck from the official schedule a December 6, 2012, dinner in Dublin, Ireland, with several Clinton Foundation and Clinton campaign donors, organized by Teneo co-founder Declan Kelly. Though Valmoro was made aware of the Dublin meeting through an earlier e-mail chain, neither Clinton’s archived daily calendar nor her detailed official schedule make any note of it.

Citizens United characterizes the State Department’s decision to go along with the filing as an acknowledgement that Clinton did, in fact, maintain a secret schedule. Collyer was apparently convinced, ordering the State Department on Wednesday to produce 500 pages of Valmoro’s e-mails by the end of August. An additional 500 pages will be released every four weeks from that date, until Citizens United obtains all messages relating to the 14 overseas trips specified.

The latest look into Clinton’s potential abuse of her government post to facilitate Clinton Foundation donations comes the same week as new revelations about her use of a private e-mail server. On Monday, Judicial Watch, another conservative nonprofit, published an additional 165 pages of e-mails from Clinton’s time as secretary of state. Those e-mails — which surfaced only after a court ordered them released — are all work-related in nature, undermining Clinton’s repeated claim that she turned over all work-related e-mails to the State Department after stepping down in 2013.

Jordan Makes Cut, Will Compete In Olympic Trials

0

Former University of Southern Indiana Men’s Cross Country/Track & Field All-American Michael Jordan ’15 (Indianapolis, Indiana) has made the cut to compete in the U.S. Olympic Trials.

Jordan, who competes for the New Jersey-New York Track Club, will compete in the 3,000-meter steeplechase prelims July 4 in Eugene, Oregon, after posting a qualifying time of eight minutes, 35.47 seconds at the Hoka One One Middle Distance Classic last month in Eagle Rock, California.

A five-time All-American at USI, Jordan owns the top three times in school history in the steeplechase. He was the 2012 GLVC Cross Country Runner of the Year before earning U.S. Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches’ Association Midwest Region Outdoor Track Athlete of the Year honors in 2013.

The two-time steeplechase All-American finished third in the event at the 2013 NCAA Division II Outdoor Championships and sixth at the 2012 NCAA II Outdoor Championships. He posted a school-record time of 8:42.63 at the 2013 Payton Jordan Invitational.

Jordan will be the third former USI Men’s Cross Country/Track & Field All-American to compete at a U.S. Olympic Trials event in the last six months after Jesse Davis ’06 (Bloomington, Indiana) and Dustin Emerick ’12 (Elmwood, Illinois) competed in the U.S. Olympic Trials marathon in Los Angeles in February. Emerick finished 26th in the event, crossing the finish line in 2:22:18, while Davis was 70th with a time of 2:29:39.

The prelims of the men’s steeplechase are July 4 at 6:33 p.m. (CDT), while the finals are July 8 at 7:30 p.m. (CDT). In order to qualify for the 2016 Olympic Games, Jordan must finish in the top three at the Olympic Trials and have post an Olympic qualifying standard (8:30.00).

Jordan, who graduated from USI in 2015 with a bachelor’s degree in psychology, is one of 24 runners who will be competing in the steeplechase at the U.S. Olympic Trials.
