Motown Brought the Holiday Spirit to Victory Theatre

0
Shadows of the 60’s, a Motown tribute band, hit Victory Theatre’s stage Saturday evening bringing their holiday special to Evansville. The band traveled from New York just to bring the Motown feel back to Victory Theatre.

“It was the wow factor this group brought tonight that kept fans cheering and taking a part in the show,” said Executive Director, Scott Schoenike.

The theatre was taken back in time all night as the Motown Super Group took on some fan favorites such as Diana Ross, The Supremes and the Temptations. There were many times the audience was asked to participate and take over the songs and it brought the feel of the real Motown all through the theatre.

The Victory Theatre continues a busy schedule with
An Evening With C.S. Lewis – January 8, Magic for Smiles – January 10, Brian Regan – January 14 and Travis Tritt – February 11.

(Over 5,000 fans attend seventh annual event benefitting local children’s charities.)

Records:  Evansville: 10-14-2-0; Indy: 11-14-2-0

Goalies:   IND – Carruth (W), 6-4-2-0, 44 saves

    EVN – Greenham (L), 4-3-1-0, 29 saves

Scoring:

1st Period: 1. IND – Sharib 8 (Ciampini, Mattson, 13:10)

2nd Period:  2. IND – Clarke 7 (Lavoie, Roehl, 5:51); 3. EVN – MacDonald 7 (Duco, Carlsson, 18:43)

3rd Period:  4. IND – Brittain 4 (SH, unassisted, 4:28)

The Indy Fuel held the Evansville IceMen offense in check thanks to a 44-save performance from Mac CarruthSaturday in a 3-1 win at the Ford Center at Evansville’s seventh annual Teddy Bear Toss event.

For the second straight night, Indy jumped out to a 1-0 lead in the first period. Cody Sharib provided the goal for the Fuel when he snuck a shot between the legs of IceMen goalie Scott Greenham from a sharp angle low in the left circle at 13:10. Carruth stopped all 14 Evansville shots in the opening frame.

Former IceMen forward Dylan Clarke added to Indy’s lead when he banked a shot off the skate of an IceMen player and into the net early in the second period. Then Justin MacDonald brought the Teddy Bears flying on to the ice when he scored with 1:17 left in the period. Out of a goal-mouth scramble, MacDonald lifted the puck over the sprawled out Carruth to cut the Fuel lead in half.

The 5,117 fans in attendance rained a large number of Teddy Bears down onto the ice, sending the teams into the second intermission early. Those bears will be donated to 9-1-1 Gives Hope and other local children’s charities.

After the intermission, the Fuel capitalized on a little puck luck, when IceMen defenseman Andrew Himelson turned the puck over when his stick broke on a pass in the Evansville zone. The puck bounced right to Josh Brittain, who walked in and scored a short-handed goal to give the Fuel a 3-1 lead.

While the IceMen generated 45 shots, including 15 in the third period, Evansville’s power play was unsuccessful on five opportunities and went 0-for-9 on the weekend. Carruth won his sixth game of the season, and third against Evansville. Greenham stopped 29 shots in his first regulation loss since October 24.

The IceMen now have a week off for Christmas, before returning to the ice next Saturday, December 26 to face the Cincinnati Cyclones at the Ford Center. Game time is scheduled for 7:15pm as it will be Evansville’s annual “Home for the Holidays” game.

Then the team travels to Quad City Wednesday, December 30, before hosting the Mallards on New Years Eve and will bring in 2016 with indoor fireworks after the game in Evansville.

Parties settle latest dispute over Franklin County courthouse nativity

0

IL Staff for www.theindianalawyer.com

A lawsuit filed on behalf of the national nonprofit Freedom From Religion Foundation and the Satanic Temple challenging a nativity scene on the Franklin County courthouse lawn has been settled. This is the second lawsuit filed in less than a year over the religious display.

The Thomas More Society, which represents Franklin County, announced it and the American Civil Liberties Union of Indiana, which filed the lawsuit on behalf of FFRF, an atheist organization, and The Satanic Temple in March 2015, have filed a stipulation to dismiss the lawsuit.

Since 2010, the nativity scene has depicted with life-size figures the birth of Jesus Christ. The American Civil Liberties Union of Indiana first brought a suit in December 2014 on behalf of FFRF and two Franklin County residents, challenging the constitutionality of the display. As a result of the lawsuit, the county board of commissioners enacted an ordinance in January regarding the grounds surrounding the courthouse that provides a new policy with a content- and viewpoint-neutral permit approval process and size restrictions of the displays, among other regulations.

The second suit filed earlier this year on behalf of FFRF and Massachusetts-based The Satanic Temple challenged the county ordinance requiring displays be sponsored by citizens of Franklin County. As part of a settlement, the county agreed to accept the designation of a local contact in lieu of requiring that sponsorship be wholly by citizens of Franklin County.

With the filing of this stipulation, all legal actions that had been pending in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Indiana against Franklin County are concluded, without attorney fees or any other costs to the county’s taxpayers.

As a result of this most recent court action, this year’s Christmas nativity scene on the Franklin County courthouse lawn is joined by other displays from local residents and churches, and the FFRF of Wisconsin, according to the Thomas More Society.
