– On Saturday, Sept. 26, Regan Will Star In
Brian Regan: Live from Radio City Music Hall,
Comedy Central’s First-Ever Live Broadcast Of A Stand-Up Special –

Evansville (Sept. 21, 2015) – Comedian Brian Regan announces spring tour dates for his non-stop theater tour, going on sale Monday, Sept. 28, 2015. Brian Regan will make a stop at Victory Theatre Thursday, January 14, at 7:30 PM. The spring leg of the tour will visit 38 cities throughout North America, including Regan’s return to the 12,500-seat EnergySolutions Arena on Tuesday, March 18.

This Saturday, Sept. 26, Regan will make history with the live Comedy Central broadcast of Brian Regan: Live from Radio City Music Hall, the first-ever live broadcast of a stand-up special in Comedy Central’s history.
On Friday, May 8, Regan made his final stand-up performance on the Late Show with David Letterman, his 28th appearance and the most of any comic since the show moved to CBS in 1993.

Regan made a scene-stealing cameo in Chris Rock’s film Top Five, and he was seen in Seinfeld’s Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee. But, it is stand-up comedy that is Regan’s focus, as he’s visiting close to 100 cities each year, and selling out some of the most beautiful venues on the continent.

Tickets may be purchased at Ford Center Ticket Office, www.Ticketmaster.com or by phone at 800-745-3000.

IS IT TRUE SEPTEMBER 22, 2015

18

IS IT  TRUE “Under the Winnecke Administration crime rates in Evansville have risen sharply, up 13% in 2012, up 1% in 2013, and up an unacceptable 28% in 2014″?

IS IT TRUE we were told the shelves at the Zoo are becoming bare because the Controllers office won’t approve any purchases?  … we also hear  that the Vanderburgh County Building Commission can’t even buy staples?

IS IT TRUE that Mayoral Candidate Gail Riecken sent out a memo stating “Winnecke has called in out-of-town reinforcements”? … Riecken says; she’s heard that the State College Republicans are sending people down here to canvas for Mayor Winnecke? …Riecken continued to state; “It seems he can’t find enough supporters here in Evansville to continue to spread his message of overspending and financial mismanagement, so he’s bringing in outside forces?

IS IT TRUE we wonder what City Council is going to do about the Building Commission paying the garbage collection bills out of the Riverboat Demolition Fund?

IS IT TRUE the Courier and Press was all about Community Blight and nothing else on Sunday? …that the Courier and Press staff kept very busy with the online portion removing both negative and neutral but informative posts from the comments resulting in very few posts because there were no pro comments for expanding the Evansville Brownfield’s land banking operations using riverboat funds.

IS IT TRUE that the issue of expanding the Brownfields land banking operation is as the Courier and Press  says “hanging fire”, but not because of the funding issue but the concept itself and the proposed partner in crime–the Brownfields Corp? ..that land banking should not be the cities only focus to solve the Community Blight problem?   …that the Brownfields has lost its primary funding source, HUD funds, because it was discovered that their land banking operating over the last five years was not an authorized use of HUD funds, and they are now left high and dry?

IS IT TRUE that the COURIER AND PRESS is correct that the city was allocated about $2.2 million in funding from the Indiana Hardest Hit Blight Elimination Program (BEP) in 2014, but misleads the public in the facts of the program? …that the program, although a federal program, was launched with a simple contract between the US department of Treasury and the Indiana Housing and Community Development Authority (IHCDA) almost three years ago that stated simply that the funds were to Demolish vacant, abandoned, homes in the communities affected by the housing crisis? …that language was specific that red tape was to be avoided? …that most of the red tape has been created by the people administering the funding?

IS IT TRUE the COURIER and PRESS is totally wrong and misleading when it says the funding is “designed to help program partners–primarily nonprofits and community development corporations–acquire the properties and carry out and acquiring land or rehabilitating structures”?  …that the original legislated use of these funds was to subsidize mortgage payments to keep people in their homes?   …that because IHCDA did such a lousy job administering the program, remaining funds were re-designated, not to help program partners, but to help the communities where these houses were abandoned? …that the “helping program partners” is a help yourself to the money attitude developed as the money changed hands from the U.S. Department of Treasury through the IHCDA , through city leaders and to the neighborhoods needing zombie houses removed?

Audubon descendant to give lecture at USI

0

Professor and art historian Lucy Winters Durkin will present a lecture titled “John James Audubon’s Ornithological Biography: The Intersection of Art and Science” at 7 p.m. Saturday, October 3 in Kleymeyer Hall in the lower level of the Liberal Arts Center. There will be a reception following the event in the McCutchan Art Center and Pace Galleries.

In this lecture, Durkin examines the literary contributions of her great, great, great grandfather, John James Audubon, best known for his four-volume edition of Birds of America. Durkin will discuss creative and rhetorical strategies in Audubon’s Ornithological Biography, the narrative companion volumes containing information about the birds Audubon painted.

Durkin graduated from Smith College in 1979 with a bachelor’s degree in history, and went on to earn her masters in art history at Williams College in Williamstown, Massachusetts. Durkin has served in a variety of professional positions focusing on the importance of art and its historical impact and context. She has served as a lecturer at Eastman School of Music of the University of Rochester in Rochester New York, Genesee Community College in Batavia, New York, and Memorial Art Gallery in Rochester, New York. She is also the co-founder and coordinator of Sight and Sound, an ongoing series of lectures and concert performances by members of the Sound ExChange Project in the Memorial Art Gallery.

About John James Audubon

John James Audubon (1785-1851) was a noted American naturalist, ornithologist and painter, best known for his book, The Birds of America, a giant four-volume work of color plates presenting the greatest documentation of birds produced up to that time. While residing in Henderson, Kentucky, from 1810-1819, Audubon produced a comprehensive collection of detailed drawings of American birds,  culminating in the publication of The Birds of America.

While John James Audubon’s art has received considerable attention by writers over the past 150 years, his Ornithological Biography has received less attention. This multi-volume set contains written description of each species.

The event is sponsored by the USI College of Liberal Arts and the Department of Communications, and is free and open to the public. For more information contact Dr. Leigh Ann Howard at 812-464-1741 or lahoward@usi.edu.

LARGE ENTHUSIASTIC, ENERGETIC CROWDS CHEER THUNDERBOLTS OPENING WEEKEND

0

THUNDERBOLTS ENTERTAIN THEIR FANS WITH ALL-OUT STELLAR EFFORT FOR FULL 60 SIX-GAME HOMESTAND CONTINUES; DIVISION RIVAL CINCINNATI HERE FRI. & SAT. NIGHTS

WEEKEND RESULTS: 2(0-2-0) 6-13
FRI. SEPT. 18 PT. MALLARD 5 AT ‘BOLTS 4 SAT. SEPT. 19 PT. MALLARD 8 AT ‘BOLTS 2

THIS WEEK’S GAMES: (2) FRI. SEPT. 25 VS. CINCINNATI 7:30 PM SAT. SEPT. 26 VS. CINCINNATI 7:30 PM

***ALL THUNDERBOLTS GAMES ARE BROADCAST LIVE ON EVANSVILLE’S WVHI-AM 1330***

TAKING OFF WITH THE THUNDERBOLTS: In their inaugural weekend as a bona-fide NA3HL team franchise, the Evansville ThunderBolts made history on two storied fronts. When they took the ice for their official debut as a fledgling franchise, the ThunderBolts became the first-ever Indiana-based team to operate in the NA3HL. Moreover, the ThunderBolts officially became the only, exclusive elite junior hockey team in the entire State of Indiana. Despite launching the 2015-16 campaign without an on-ice ultimate success, the ‘Bolts performed with great effort, heart, soul and gallantry against a veteran-imbued Point Mallard Ducks squadron bent on Silver Cup aspirations this season. In the process, the newly-minted ThunderBolts endeared themselves to their growing leather-lunged legion of fans showing much premium promise as the infant season unfolds.

MIDWEST DIVISION DELEGATION: The ThunderBolts 2(0-2-0)0, are operating in their 2015-16 maiden voyage season as members of the NA3HL Midwest Division where proximate, geographic rivalries will be accented. Evansville will be competing with such familiar, nearby teams and haunts as the Cincinnati Thunder, Nashville Jr. Predators, Peoria Mustangs and St. Louis Jr. Blues. Also on their schedule are two South Division foes; namely the Atlanta Capitals and the Point Mallard Ducks with the latter club hailing from Decatur, Alabama.

OPENING RECORD REPORT: Evansville completed its initial weekend sustaining back-to-back setbacks at the expense of the high-voltage, high-powered quack-attack of the Point Mallard Ducks. Friday night, on opening night, before a boisterous, vociferous throng in full-throat, the ‘Bolts seemed to simply run out of time in a 5-4 outcome. Though never leading in the contest, GM/Coach Scott Fankhouser’s aggregation nation played with great zeal and gargantuan gusto as on 4-occasions they diminished their deficit to a scant singleton before the master game time piece betrayed them. In the second installment of the opening weekend series, the Ducks asserted their prowess in an 8-2 conquest.

THUNDERBOLTS VS. THUNDER: Evansville’s season-opening and franchise-inaugurating six-game homestand continues this Friday and Saturday nights at Swonder Ice Arena where the ThunderBolts will tangle with the retooled and refurbished Cincinnati Thunder with opening face-off set for 7:30 pm for both contests. The ThunderBolts and the Thunder will lock horns six times during the regular phase of the season’s schedule with four of those affairs on the docket here in Evansville. Single game tickets are ONLY $5 !! Visit the ThunderBolts

website at www.evvbolts.com

JONNY B. GOOD: ThunderBolts left wing Jon Grimm has launched his return to his hometown of Evansville on a high, premium, positive note. Through his team’s first two games, the Newburgh denizen has engineered 4-points on 1-goal, 3-assists. On opening night, Friday night, the 6-0, 181lb, the 19-year-old earned the Penn Station/’Bolts Star of the Game, by producing a individual game-highs of 3-points and +3 rating in his club’s 5-4 setback. On that same night, Grimm wrote Evansville hockey history when he scored the premiering team’s first-ever goal late in the first period at the 19:41 mark.

THE BRANDON BREW: Swift-skating, shifty center Brandon Bornkamp also composed a polished and proficient opening weekend of offensive stylings for the hometown team. Making his junior hockey debut a rather auspicious one, the 2014-15 State of Indiana High School Scoring Champion authored a goal in each of his team’s weekend starts in an overall 3-points production series against the Ducks. Friday night, the Indiana homegrown standout contributed (1-1-2) with an impressive +2 rating before firing a PPG on Saturday night. Last season, the 5-9, 180lb scoring wizard averaged a prolific 2.34 points per game for the Carroll Chargers. In 44-games, Bornkamp amassed an astronomical 103-points on 56-goals, 47-assists.

PUCK BLIZZARD-BARRAGE: The ThunderBolts goaltending tandem of Brian Forness and Adam Conkling were utterly sprouting rubber limbs on demand the past weekend as they were kept under a constant siege from Point Mallard’s high-tech, high-octane attack. In his home debut Friday night, Forness was extraordinary, repelling 41 of 46-shots despite the 5-4 defeat. Then on Saturday night, Indiana product Adam Conkling was pelted and peppered with pucks to the tune of 62-shots on goal and 54-saves in the 8-2 undoing. Conkling was hailed and heralded the Penn Station/ThunderBolts Star of the Game for his enormous efforts.

SPECIAL TEAMS TUNING: The past weekend, the ThunderBolts power play percolated to the tune of 2-11 for proficiency rating of 18.2%; going 1 for the last 9 for 11.1%. Right wing Brett Howard and center Brandon Bornkamp were the power play marksmen with the third member of the ‘Bolts best offensive triumvirate, Jon Grimm essaying assists on both PP strikes. Meanwhile the shorthand band was under severe salvo, surrendering 5- PPGA in 10-advantages afforded Point Mallard. The efficiency rating in this department was 50%.

THE FIRST 6 PERIODS PERFORMA: Through the initial six periods of the campaign, the numerological profile looks like this: in goal-scoring artistry: the first period; opponents 6, ‘Bolts 1; second period; opponents 3, ‘Bolts 1; third period; opponents 4, ‘Bolts 4. In the shots on goal category: first period; opponents 31, .Bolts 10; second period; opponents 36, ‘Bolts 17; third period; opponents 41, ‘Bolts 12.

THUNDERBOLTS SCORING SULTANS: 4-Jon Grimm 2(1-3-4) +3; 18-Brandon Bornkamp 2(2-1-3) +2; 9- Brett Howard 2(1-1-2) E; 5-Brian Crink 2(1-1-2); 20-Brett Siewertsen 2(0-2-2); 24-Joey Sorensen 2(1-0-1)E.

FEW FUN FAST FACTS FROM “FIC:” The ThunderBolts were significantly understaffed Saturday night following the one-game, league-imposed suspension to ace of the place defenseman Nate Thormann and the injury sustained by promising first-year left wing Mike Kelley in the aftermath of the first game in the series on Friday night. Local product Bryson Linenburg was not activated for Friday night’s home opening contest but did serve as the understudy in goal for Saturday night’s encore presentation against Point Mallard. Nine players on the ‘Bolts roster are Indiana homegrown. The ‘Bolts are looking for their first lead in this embryonic season. All 22-home games are on weekends; 9-Fri.; 11-Sat.; 2-Sun. matinees. ‘Bolts merchandise is available at the TPH Pro Shop at Swonder. Pocket schedules can be picked up at all Penn Station locations, Swonder Ice Arena and all around the Tri- State area.

Late surge not enough as Eagles fall to Panthers

0

The University of Southern Indiana women’s soccer team tried surge in the second half, but lost a 2-1 decision to Drury University Sunday afternoon at Strassweg Field. USI saw its record fall to 3-2-1 and 2-2-0 in the Great Lakes Valley Conference, while Drury rose to 3-1-2, 2-1-1 GLVC.

The Screaming Eagles started fast, but the Panthers were faster as Drury took a 1-0 lead into the intermission on a goal at 10:58. The Panthers held a significant advantage in shots during the opening half, 9-2, while each team had a pair of corner kicks.

Five minutes into the second half, the Panthers quickly doubled its first half advantage to 2-0 with tally at 50:14. USI rallied six minutes later and cut the deficit in half when freshman midfielder Carissa Dyer(Crescent Springs, Kentucky) scored an unassisted goal at 56:33.

Dyer, who recorded her second goal of the season, beat a pair of Drury defenders before placing the ball into the upper right corner of the Panther goal. The goal gives Dyer five points this season (two goals and one assists), good enough for third on USI in scoring through six games.

Overall in the match, Drury outshot USI, 14-8, but the Eagles held the advantage in corner kicks, 6-4. USI freshman goalkeeper Emily Hopkins (Greenfield, Indiana) allowed the two goals and made four saves in the match.

The Eagles hit the road next weekend when they travel to the far west of the GLVC to visit Rockhurst University Friday at 5 p.m. and William Jewell College September 27 at noon. USI returns to Strassweg Field on October 2 to host the University of Indianapolis and start a two-match homestand.

“Now Open: Starting Strong with Character, Action, and Rhythm in the Cotemporary Short Story” masterclass: 3-4:15 p.m., UC2207

 

With an eye toward crafting the strongest openings possible, Liam Callanan will lead this masterclass on how to gain your audience’s attention in the story’s first paragraphs.

Public reading: 4:30-5:30 p.m., Traditions Lounge, University Center East

Liam Callanan is the author of novels: The Cloud Atlas, an Edgar Award Finalist, and All Saints, a Target Bookmarked Breakout Book, and a new story collection Listen. Callanan also serves in the English Department of the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, and was previously its chair and coordinator of its Ph.D. program in creative writing.

Public reading: 4:30-5:30 p.m., Traditions Lounge, University Center East

Carrie Jerrell, a graduate of John Hopkins University and Texas Tech University, is the author of the poetry collection After the Revival.
