The University of Southern Indiana volleyball team announced its 2016 schedule Thursday.

USI begins its season at the Flagler Invitational in St. Augustine, Florida, September 2-3 and will play in the Augustana Volleyball Showcase at the Sanford Pentagon in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, September 9-10 before opening up its home and Great Lakes Valley Conference slate with William Jewell College September 16.

The Screaming Eagles play 10 home matches in 2016, including nine against GLVC opposition. Highlighted in the Eaglesâ€™ GLVC home slate are bouts against 2015 NCAA Division II Tournament participants Rockhurst University (September 17) and Lewis University (October 8).

USI hosts Drury University for Senior Day October 29 before playing its final five matches of the regular-season on the road.

Visits to 2015 NCAA II Tournament participant Trevecca Nazarene University as well as GLVC Tournament finalist University of Indianapolis highlight USIâ€™s 10-match regular-season road schedule. Five of those 10 matches will be played prior to the Midwest Region Crossover, which is October 21-22 in Aurora, Illinois.

The Eagles, who were 21-11 overall and 10-8 in GLVC play a year ago, are looking to make their 18^thÂ consecutive post-season appearance in 2016 after advancing to the GLVC Tournament a year ago.

For the third straight season, the GLVC Tournament (November 18-20) will be hosted at the EastSide Centre in East Peoria, Illinois. The NCAA II Midwest Region Tournament will be contested at a site to be determined December 1-4, while the NCAA II Volleyball Championship is December 8-10 at the Sanford Pentagon in Sioux Falls.

Under the direction of Head CoachÂ Leah Mercer â€™02Â for the 12^thÂ year, the Eagles are looking for their fourth NCAA II Tournament appearance since 2010 and their first since 2013.

The Eagles return eight letterwinners and five starters from last yearâ€™s squad, including junior liberoÂ Shannon FarrellÂ (Munster, Indiana) and junior outside hitterÂ Shelbi MorrisÂ (Brazil, Indiana). Farrell racked up 575 digs a year ago, coming within 15 digs of Kayla Heldmanâ€™s single-season mark of 590, set in 2013; while Morris was third on the team with 2.84 kills per set a year ago.

Politicians Must Be Held To A Higher Standard

07/08/2016

By Andrew Horning

Most people have it all wrong. The â€œRule of Lawâ€ doesn’t mean that laws apply to common folk. Heck, even North Koreans have that. Rule of Law means thatÂ nobody, especially among the ruling class, isÂ aboveÂ the law.

The principle is that the greater the power, the greater the danger; so the greater the accountability. Consequences are greater when rulers make mistakes, or commit crimes, so we haveÂ constitutions as a leash on politicians, not on us regular humans.

Here in the â€œLand of the Freeâ€ every day, ordinary folks are arrested, tased, beaten, imprisoned and shot for a lot less than what investigators say Hillary did. We can be jailed for all manner of harmless activities like smoking marijuana, selling fresh milk, or keeping a pet owl…with or without criminal intent.

That’s wrong in itself, of course. But we’re supposed to have a classless society, where all are equal under the law; and endangering national security is actually considered a bad thing to do.

We’re past-due for a majorÂ revolution on at least the order of the Civil Rights Movement, Women’s Suffrage, or the end of Prohibition.Â OurÂ crony networkÂ politician/ puppet-master schemeÂ has become a global crime ring where theÂ financialÂ costs areÂ spilling ontoÂ ourÂ great-grandchildren, and where the death toll isÂ both unnecessary, and tragicallyÂ high.Â The corruption must end.

Election Day was intended as a means of peaceful revolution; a day on which We The People can readjust, reorder, or completely overthrow the government andÂ install a new oneÂ that better suits our desires for peace, prosperity, security and freedom.

And that is whatÂ some of us areÂ putting on the ballot â€“Â a better way forward to peace, prosperity, security and (it’s about time don’t you think?) freedom.

Indianapolis, IN â€“Monday, July 11, 2016, will mark the start of the 15th annual Cops Cycling for Survivors bicycle ride around Indiana. A departure ceremony will be held at 8:30 a.m. EDT in front of the Indiana State Museum (650 W. Washington St) in downtown Indianapolis. The cyclists will depart shortly after key note comments by survivors Carolyn Dudley and Jennifer Martin-Luskey.Â 2016â€™s ride celebrates 15 years of Gary Dudleyâ€™s vision of a ride to support law enforcement survivors and for the first time in 30 years, Indiana lost no officers to line of duty death in 2015.Â 2016 also honors ten years since Lt.

Cops Cycling for Survivors Foundation, Inc. annual bike ride consists of active and retired police officers, law enforcement survivors, law enforcement family members and friends of law enforcement riding their bicycles around the perimeter of Indiana to raise funds and awareness of the sacrifices made by Hoosier law enforcement families across Indiana. Funds raised from this event are used to perpetuate the memories of officers killed in the line-of-duty and to aid surviving family members and co-workers of officers killed in the line-of-duty. Previously raised funds have been directly donated to foundations, scholarships and camps that have been started in memory of fallen officers or by Indiana survivors in honor of their fallen heroes.Â In addition, funding has been donated to National Concerns of Police Survivors, the Indiana Chapter of Concerns of Police Survivors and Project Blue Light at the Indiana Law Enforcement Academy.

The ride is scheduled to conclude the afternoon of Saturday, July 23, 2016, at Crown Hill Cemetery, Heroes of Public Safety Section.Â The closing ceremony will begin at 2:00pm EDT.Â Indianapolis Colts long snapper Matt Overton will provide the closing message.Â All are welcome to attend.

There will also be a stationary ride fundraising event on Monument Circle in front of Emmis Communication on Friday, July 8, 2016, from 7:00 am to 3:00pm.Â Â Come out and meet some of the cyclists, sign the support truck, buy some Cops Cycling swag, donate, or just hang out.
