40TH ANNUAL WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP ICE RACING SERIES

0

Saturday night January 23rd is the date, 7:00PM is the start time. That’s when the Gladiators of motorsports will square off at FORD CENTER for ROUND 2 of the 40TH ANNUAL WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP ICE RACING SERIES.

The world’s top ice racers will mount upon their highly modified, exotic state-of-the-art super cross motorcycles to battle it out on Ford Center’s specially prepared solid ice race course. The word treacherous comes to mind. High speed thrills and spills guaranteed as these extreme athletes let it all hang out competing to win the Evansville Championship. Along with the gold and glory riders earn valuable World Championship Points towards the sport’s most prestigious title – 40TH ICE RACING WORLD CHAMPION!

Also racing for their own World Championship Title will be the wild and wooly, always unpredictable ICE Pro Unlimited Outlaw Quads. These machines are definitely not your father’s ATV from the farm. In this class of ice racing almost anything goes. In fact, there are only three basic technical rules. A “dead man” kill switch must be installed for when the rider and his machine become “separated” in a wreck; quads cannot exceed 50″ in width at any point; and they must be rear wheels driven only, no 4-wheel drive.
Any chassis configuration, any engine make and displacement, any fuel, nitrous, razor sharp steel studded tires, 0-60MPH in less than 3 seconds, etc, etc. You get the picture – the guys are crazy!

Race fans will also see local riders competing in select ICE Amateur Classes. Most have never raced on ice in their life! To add even more to the excitement and fun Special Attractions are planned as well making for 2 1/2 hours of nonstop motorsports mayhem–!

Indiana State Police Increase Patrols during Thanksgiving Holiday

0

To help ensure the safety of all motorists during the Thanksgiving holiday period, Indiana State Police will be joining more than 250 other Indiana law enforcement agencies in participating in the annual Safe Family Travel campaign. Beginning today and running through Sunday, December 6, Indiana State Police will be conducting high visibility enforcement efforts including sobriety check points and saturation patrols looking for impaired and dangerous drivers. Troopers will also be specifically looking for drivers who speed, follow too closely, make unsafe lane changes, drive aggressively and fail to buckle up or properly restrain children.

According to the Indiana Criminal Justice Institute (ICJI), there were 520 alcohol-related crashes across Indiana resulting in 235 injuries and three fatalities just last year in November.
Please help do your part to make the Thanksgiving holiday travel period safe by observing the following safety tips:

• Make sure you are well rested if you plan to travel.  A fatigued driver is a dangerous driver.
• Avoid tailgating; remember the two-second rule.
• Make sure everyone is buckled up.
• Avoid using your cell phone while driving. Distracted driving is dangerous driving.
•Don’t drink and drive.
• MOVE OVER, SLOW DOWN for emergency and highway service vehicles.

Increased enforcement during the Thanksgiving holiday period is an annual statewide effort supported by federal funding allocated from the Traffic Safety division of the Indiana Criminal Justice Institute.

Miranda sets single-season kill mark for UE

0

University of Evansville sophomore Genesis Miranda set the Purple Aces single-season kills mark as UE fell to Indiana State by a 3-1 final on Friday night at the Carson Center.

 

Miranda posted a game-high 19 kills to lead UE (8-21, 2-13 MVC).  She now has 463 on the season, breaking Julie Groves’ mark of 454.

 

“I am excited for that, I did not expect to do that in my sophomore year,” Miranda said.  “It is special and that will motivate me to help our team take it to the next level in my junior year.

 

Stephanie Cerino had 12 kills on the night while Kim Deprez posted 20 digs.  Jelena Merseli had a team-best 24 assists.  Pacing the Indiana State (17-14, 6-10 MVC) offense was Cassandra Willis, who had 13 kills.  Kynedi Nalls and Melody Burdett registered 12 apiece.

 

Indiana State opened the night with a 25-17 win in the opening frame.  Carly Wishlow had four kills on five attempts.  With ISU up 8-7, they went on an 11-2 run and pulled away for the win.  Evansville got a little closer as Lorena Marquez did the serving in a 5-0 stretch, but the Sycamores hung on for the win.

 

Evansville got its revenge in the second game.  Trailing 11-10, UE scored nine of the next 11 points as Kim Deprez helped the Aces score four in a row as she notched an ace in the run.  Hanging on to a 23-17 lead, Mildrelis Rodriguez recorded the final two kills to lead UE to the win.

 

Early in the third game, Evansville had the hot hand, taking a 6-3 lead on a Gabriela Roman kill.  Indiana State responded as Kynedi Nalls had back-to-back kills to give them an 8-6 lead and cap off a 5-0 run.  They went on to lead by six points at 19-13 before the Aces stormed back.  Rodriguez did the serving and also notched a killas the Aces scored four in a row.  Later, they tied it up at 21-21.  With the score knotted at 22-22, the Sycamores scored the next two before a Wishlow tally gave them a 25-23 triumph.

 

The Aces rallied once again in the fourth frame.  Trailing 20-13 and later by a 22-16 tally, UE fought back.  Miranda notched a pair of kills in a run that saw the Aces get within one at 23-22.  Following two timeouts, the Sycamores were able to regroup and hang on for the 25-23 win to clinch the match.

 

Tomorrow, UE completes its home slate against Illinois State at 6 p.m.  Seniors Stephanie Cerino, Kim Deprez, Lorena Marquez, Tathianna Cordero and Gabriela Roman will be recognized before the match.

 

 IF IT’S NOT BROKEN-DON’T FIX IT

IF IT’S NOT BROKEN-DON’T FIX IT

By George Lumley

If it is “NOT BROKEN” then “DON’T FIX IT”.  That short phrase says a lot.  I believe in it strongly.  Yes, we need to adjust for the times and change things for the better occasionally; however, the government is always trying to fix what ain’t broken.  Yes, even the local government, CITY/COUNTY, is often trying to fix what is not broken for the benefit of those (special interest) claiming it needs to be fixed.

If it “IS BROKEN” then by all means “DO FIX IT”; however that doesn’t happen.  Yes, you heard me right. Something is broken but they (city/county officials) do not want to fix it.  Why you ask?  Well I don’t know but maybe you can help me figure this out over the next few months.  I suspect it is because there are special interest that are getting in the way of what is right for everyone’s best interest.

The tax sale process in Indiana was Broken.  In Evansville there was even a cry to stop the tax sale because it was contributing to the Blight.  The C & P even had a series to embarrass the people living in the blighted structures that had ties to the tax sale.  While Evansville seemingly did nothing to fix the problem the rest of the state worked on a solution. Legislation to improve the process was passed in 2012, 2013, and 2014.  The 2014 legislation hit a little snag but the legislators quickly hammered that out in early 2015 and made it retroactive to January 1, 2015 for those forward thinking local governments that wanted the latest and best fixes to the problem. Now while all this was going on around the state, Evansville leaders turned a blind eye and deaf ear.  I suspect this was not because they were ignorant of the problem or the legislation to fix it, but because the legislation was not serving their special interest.  I will present facts over the next few months and you can reach your own conclusion.

I want to be positive and need your help in steering our officials in fixing the problem.  With this in mind I am happy to announce the launch the “Let’s Fix That Tax Sale” series of essays.  Oh, and there will be video. Please blog and comment positively to bring the problem to light.

This is going to be a positive series without the negativity and put downs presented by the C & P in their “who owns that” series.  We will be covering the tax sale on Monday not to humiliate people and frame them as stupid but to present the real issues of the tax sale.  Unlike the C & P, we will not be advocating to stop the tax sale, but to implement available provisions in state law to make the tax sale work for everyone’s best interest.  The essays and video will present individual tax sale properties, associated people, issues and positive solutions on how to make the tax sale process work for everyone’s best interest.

Please read my first in the series “Lets Fix That Tax Sale” here on the CCO Monday morning.  It will detail some of the upcoming content and your feedback will help mold each essay.  See you Monday.
