WHO WILL BE THE FIRST?

0

Gavel Gamut

By Jim Redwine

(Week of 13 June 2016)

WHO WILL BE THE FIRST?

The current presidential campaign began so long ago who wins in November has lost all flavor, except, who will be the First; will we have a First Lady or a First Gentleman? After so much mutual garbage exchange, it matters little who sits at the head of the table at White House dinners. However, who sits at the foot of the table holds considerable opportunity for making the cable news channels giddy.

Our first First Lady to occupy the White House was the redoubtable Abigail Adams who is remembered for her sage advice to John on matters of State and for hanging her family’s laundry in the East Room of the presidential mansion.

For over two hundred years our First Ladies, they have all been women so far, have admired the White House from afar and then proceeded to transform it to their liking when they moved in. Of course, the male presidents, they have all been male so far, also enforced their tastes, or lack there of, on the Executive Mansion. For instance, that Tennessee homeboy Andrew Jackson had brass spittoons lining the formal public drawing room and Georgia’s own Jimmy Carter personally managed the tennis courts.

However, from Dolly Madison to Jackie Kennedy our First Ladies have ripped up carpet, installed new drapes, changed the furniture and designed new paint schemes. It sounds like they all knew my wife.

Be that as it may, I have begun to look forward to January 2017 with anticipation. Let’s say Donald Trump wins. It will be like a re-run of the French speaking Jackie Kennedy who even re-did Abraham Lincoln’s bedroom. This time it will be Melania, who speaks five languages and knows designers personally who most of us are not sure are real people.

Think of Dior gowns at White House balls and Versace drapes in the Oval Office. Not only would our Peoples House be festooned with Gucci, Prada, Armani and Fendi, but The Donald could pay for them while Melania charms foreign leaders in their native languages. In other words, picture a complete reversal of the campaign atmosphere.

But what if Hillary Clinton wins? We have had a preview of what might occur when President Jimmy Carter was in office. Remember Billie, the First Brother? We did not get white washed tires embedded in the drive but we still had “Billie Beer”. Billie was to Jimmy what Bill may be to Hillary. And I have to assume the first First Husband will act about how all husbands act when their wives turn them loose around the house. I predict the first thing Bill will do is have a yard barn installed and fill it with tools he’ll never use.

Next I foresee a Man Cave being created in the East Wing complete with a pool table and big screen television of Jumbotron style. Of course, a refrigerator is essential as are several large leather recliners for husbands of foreign leaders to watch ball games and soccer matches with.

And just as the Trumps can fend for themselves financially so can the Clintons. Maybe all these improvements will be donated. I say let’s get this boring election over and move right to the international diva or the Arkansas homeboy invasion of the White House!

Master Trooper Jeremy Woods Named ISP CVED Inspector Challenge Grand Champion

Indianapolis, IN- Recently, the Indiana State Police Commercial Vehicle Enforcement Division conducted the CVED Inspector Challenge at the Indiana State Fairgrounds.

Commercial Vehicle Enforcement Officers and Motor Carriers Inspectors from around the state competed in four categories which included level 1 safety inspection, passenger vehicle inspection, non-bulk Haz-Mat inspection and cargo tank inspection. Officers and inspectors were required to inspect the various vehicles, identify violations and make proper determination if the violation met the out of service criteria. Written tests were also administered which included Commercial Motor Safety Alliance (CVSA) inspection procedures, Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations and CVSA out of service criteria. Each participant in the event underwent additional training prior to the competition that familiarized them with the rules and procedures.

Each station of inspection is timed and the competitors are judged on their ability to identify violations of the vehicles or drivers and to determine if they are out of service violations.

The following people were chosen as the winners in the following categories:

>North American Standard Level 1 Inspector Champion-M/Trp. Jeremy Woods

>Hazardous Materials Cargo Tank Inspection Champion-M/Trp. Jeremy Woods

>Passenger Vehicle Inspection Champion-S/Trp. Brent Hoover

>Grand Champion of the Commercial Vehicle Enforcement Inspector Challenge-M/Trp. Jeremy Woods

Master Trooper Woods will represent the Indiana State Police at the Commercial Vehicle Safety Alliance North American Inspectors Challenge in Indianapolis, Indiana August 8-12, 2016 in conjunction with the American Trucking Association’s Truck Driving Championship. He will be competing against inspectors from across the United States, Canada and Mexico.

M/Trp. Woods is a 20 year veteran of the Indiana State Police and has been assigned to the Commercial Vehicle Enforcement Division since 2010. He is a hazardous materials and cargo tank inspection instructor and a member of the radiological inspection team. M/Trp. Woods resides in Randolph County.

S/Trp. Hoover, the winner of the Passenger Vehicle Inspection, is a 12 year veteran of the Indiana State Police and assigned to CVED since 2010. He resides in Vermillion County.

“This competition is something that our officers and inspectors look forward to each year because not only does it build camaraderie between the competitors it also enhances the training that each CVEO and MCI receive” stated DC M/MCI Mike Wilson. “The Indiana State Police Commercial Vehicle Enforcement Division is continuously working to ensure the public’s safety through these types of inspections and this competition can only augment our inspection procedures.”

UE men’s basketball sees one of top attendance jumps in NCAA

Aces saw jump of 923 fans per game in 2015-16

EVANSVILLE, Ind. – A great season that saw the University of Evansville men’s basketball team post a 25-9 record also saw the program see a large jump in its average home attendance.

The Purple Aces averaged 5,147 fans at its 16 regular-season home games in 2015-16, a jump of 923 fans from the previous year.  That jump was the 26th-best in the NCAA for last season.

“We gained a great deal of positive momentum from our CIT run in 2015 and saw that carry over into last season,” UE head coach Marty Simmons said.  “Our fans really enjoyed interacting with our players and were able to make a personal connection with them.”

“Our players do a great job of connecting to our fans on and off the court and the fans do an awesome job of showing their support,” Simmons continued.  “That support carried us this season and each year prior.  Our fans do a great job of supporting and carrying us throughout the season.”

In 16 home games, UE went 13-3 while averaging 5,147 fans per game.  That marked the highest average total since the Ford Center opened in 2011.  Over the course of its nine Missouri Valley Conference games, the number was even higher as an average of 6,022 fans per game made their way through the turnstiles.

Included in that number was an arena record of 10,034 fans at the January 31 game against Wichita State.

Indianapolis – Governor Mike Pence today offered remarks and helped serve lunch to service members and veterans at Camp Atterbury in Edinburgh, Indiana at Walmart’s 7th Feed ‘Em for Freedom event. Throughout this program, Walmart has fed more than 10,000 soldiers.

“All Hoosiers are thankful to Walmart for coming alongside our service members and veterans with hiring commitments and events like ‘Feed ‘Em for Freedom’,” said Governor Pence. “We can never fully repay the debt we owe to our men and women in uniform, but by supporting them with events like Walmart’s Feed ‘Em for Freedom, we can truly make a down payment and keep faith with those who answer the call of duty.”

COA majority finds double jeopardy violations on rehearing

0

Scott Roberts for www.theindianalawyer.com

The Indiana Court of Appeals ruled on rehearing that a man’s two convictions for resisting law enforcement violated Indiana’s double jeopardy prohibition and remanded the case to trial court to vacate one of them.

The rehearing modified an original memorandum decision in Myles K. Martin Jr. v. State of Indiana, 82A01-1507-CR-966.

Officers attempted to stop Martin as he drove a stolen SUV, but Martin chose to flee. After officers disabled the vehicle, Martin fled from officers on foot. The state separately charged Martin with resisting law enforcement as a Class D felony while in the car, and resisting law enforcement as a Class A misdemeanor while on foot.

In the rehearing, Judge Edward Najam wrote for the majority, joined by Judge Melissa May, that “when a defendant flees from law enforcement by a vehicle and then exits that vehicle to continue fleeing by foot, the defendant has committed one continuous act of resisting law enforcement,” citing Lewis v. State, 43 N.E.3d 689, 691 (Ind. Ct. App. 2015). Subsequently, the COA reversed Martin’s Class A misdemeanor conviction and remanded for the trial court to vacate it and the resulting sentence.

Judge Patricia Riley would deny rehearing without opinion.

State agencies promote low head dam safety

0

Three state agencies are working together this summer to promote water safety and alert citizens to the dangers of recreating near low head dams on Indiana river systems.

In recent years, Indiana has been affected by tragic losses of lives at low head dams. Since 2010, a total of 14 people have drowned near low head dams.

“What can appear harmless during low water levels can turn into a dangerous situation with little rainfall,” said DNR Law Enforcement Director Danny L. East. “When a keeper hydraulic exists at the face of a low head dam, escape is unlikely if not impossible.”

Low head dams are man-made concrete structures in river systems that pool upstream water for various reasons and create a short drop in downstream water levels. A “keeper hydraulic” is described as a strong backwash that prevents escape.  Indiana has 146 documented low head dams.

“Anywhere there is water there is a risk of drowning,” said Mary Beth Bonaventura, director, Indiana Department of Child Services. “Adults need to actively supervise children in and around open bodies of water. This means, adults must be able to see and hear their child at all times. Do not leave a young child unattended or out of sight, not even for a moment.”

“Indiana Conservation Officers continuously train to respond to fast water emergencies, and we find that low head dams present unusually difficult circumstances for our officers,” said Maj. Terry Hyndman, operations commander for DNR Law Enforcement. “The backwash from the face of the dam to the boil continuously recirculates an object back into the face of the dam.”

Untrained rescuers, who may act when seeing another person in trouble, account for 25 percent of low head dam drowning victims nationwide. Shore-assisted rescue is the safest way to assist a person caught in the hydraulic of a low head dam without placing the rescuer at risk. Citizens are encouraged to carry ring buoys, boat cushions, or one-gallon milk jugs half full of water tied to 50 feet of strong rope and use these items to throw to a person. Extending a pole or long tree branch is also a safe and effective way to provide assistance.

“Low head dams are deceptively dangerous, and can go from serene to life-threatening in a matter of seconds,” said Mary Moran, Recovery Branch Director for the Indiana Department of Homeland Security. “Even during perfect weather, rainfall upstream can raise water levels causing dangerous conditions. This makes already obscured low head dams almost impossible to see and avoid.”

Canoe and kayak enthusiasts are encouraged to learn the river system and discover the low head dam locations prior to beginning their trip. From the upriver perspective, the low head dam may not be easily seen until it is too late to avoid, causing an unsuspecting person to go over the dam and placing them in a dangerous situation.

“We all promote the wearing of a U.S. Coast Guard-approved life jacket when enjoying Indiana waterways,” said Lt. Kenton Turner, boating law administrator for DNR Law Enforcement.  “Unfortunately, the hydraulic of a low head dam prevents the lifejacket from keeping a person above water as they are recirculated and pushed under by the water coming over the dam.  Low head dams should be completely avoided by our citizens.”
