Supreme Court Strikes Down Evansville Smoking Ordinance

56

 

no smokingOn the basis of equal treatment the Indiana Supreme Court has negated the City of Evansville smoking ordinance passed in 2012. The reason for striking the law down is the exception to the law that was carved out for then Casino Aztar that is currently owned and operated by Tropicana.

Evansville is still subject to a watered down statewide law that provides exceptions for bars, restaurants, and private clubs.

This is a developing story.

Letter To The Editor Concerning Ford Center

ford center
by Bill Hazelip
posted without bias, editing or opinion
In case the Mayor doesn’t get his four block Medical Center downtown I would suggest using this area for a parking plaza.  This parking plaza will help save the Ford Center, because free hockey tickets and hockey burn-out will never save the Center.  Last year was a great year for the Ford Center.  Most of the games, we didn’t even wear a coat to the game.   This year the older crowd couldn’t maneuver the ice and piles on snow on the sidewalks and streets. I helped a woman in a wheel chair during the last ACES game her wheel became caught in the ice, her husband pushing the wheel chair was not much help!  You can’t blame the City maintenance crew, temperatures and ice and snow and temperatures  hanging below twenty degrees is a maintenance killer!

Mole

The city and Ford Arena need the adjacent block of 6th and locust with a double deck parking garage.   This week, I was at Bob Evans and this woman came in with a handicap mobile bike, I opened the door for her and we discussed the ACES and Ford Center she said, she was going to the girl’s game and she hoped she didn’t get another illegal parking ticket, of which I said, “welcome to the club, I have gotten them too!”  She said, “one of the ACES’s girl player’s family from out of town had their Van pulled in and they couldn’t get back home, because it was a weekend!”
This is a terrible image for the Ford Center and Evansville.  We don’t need meter maids handing out tickets like hand- bills at a parade.  Everyone knows  that parking is critical, so why make the worst of this construction blunder.

IS IT TRUE February 11, 2014

IS IT TRUE that it is now only 17 days until the $200,000 loan that the Winnecke Administration dealt from the bottom of the deck and into the hands of Earthcare Energy LLC becomes due in full?…as Earthcare Energy LLC has continued to make the nominal interest only payments of just over $300 per month to keep the note current, it will be quite interesting to see if the City of Evansville will make any attempt to collect this debt and return these taxpayer dollars to the people of Evansville or if we will see a legal battle to determine the efficacy of the poorly crafted contract signed by city officials?

IS IT TRUE it is now only 48 days until the agreement between HCW of Branson, Missouri and the City of Evansville to put a downtown convention hotel and a luxury apartment tower in downtown Evansville expires unless plans are finalized and all financing is secured?…some CCO Moles close to this process are telling us there is trouble in paradise?…this proposed $69 Million project is being paid for by $20 Million from the public coffers as an incentive, by UP TO $14 Million from ONB’s SNEGAL naming rights deal for The Centre, and the balance of roughly $35 Million by HCW in some yet to be disclosed combination of loans and equity down payment?…the appraisal for the combination of the 253 room hotel and the apartments is expected to be in the range of $35 Million so at a loan to value (LTV) of 70% which is about as good as it gets nowadays, HCW will need to cough up a down payment in the range of $10.5 Million unless something exotic comes riding to the rescue?…it will be very interesting indeed to watch this unfold as there is already an issue with the soils that insiders tell us will add about $1 Million to the cost?…the safest thing to predict right now is that the City of Evansville and the Redevelopment Commission will be extending the agreement to infinity and beyond (to quote Buzz Lightyear) to delay another egg on the face moment for FAILURE TO VET?

IS IT TRUE speaking of delays for FAILURE TO VET or even READ, the Obama Administration has kicked the can down the road on the employer mandate for companies with between 50 and 99 employees?…the can has also been kicked down the road for larger companies that will now only have to insure 70% of their workforce as opposed to the 95% under the law that was never read before it was passed?…it would be cynical to think that this latest round of delays by executive order are all about the congressional elections of 2014 and the millions of cancellation notices that would have been hitting American mailboxes just before the election, but so be it?…this delay is either about more abject incompetence on the part of the Obama Administration or about short term POLITICS and those readers are the only feasible explanations?…on the bright side, maybe this will be an opportunity to READ THE DAMN THING AND AMEND IT SO THAT THE PROMISES IN THE DARK FROM THE 2008 CAMPAIGN WILL ACTUALLY BE FULFILLED?…with a divided congress that is not going to happen, so the American people who seem to like having the wool pulled over their eyes need to deliver a united congress in 2014 as improper implementation of the unaffordable law amazingly named the Affordable Care Act has the potential to sink lot of people’s boats for a long long time?

IS IT TRUE the Civic Center Moles tell us there are job openings posted for both the Director if IT and now the City Engineer?…despite raising the salary for a Director of IT to $135,000, no acceptable candidates have applied for the job?…we know that sounds like a lot of money for Evansville but this is a job that requires an outsider and to attract the right talent may just take over $200,000?…it all comes down to whether or not Evansville wants to stay in the bush leagues on infrastructure or step up to the low end of national scales on information technology?

IS IT TRUE when we made it known yesterday that some self made American billionaires had topped the charts with charitable donations, the CCO comments came under a barrage of attacks from people who seem to have such hate and envy for billionaires that they denigrated those who have made billions of dollars in charitable donations?…some even made statements about how this did not hurt the billionaires and they deserved no praise for their generosity?…speaking for myself, this collection of envy and hate reminded this writer of why I left Evansville in 1982 and again in 2011?…such an outpouring of hate for perfectly good people who happen to have made allot of money through entrepreneurship and job creation is more of a turn off than a canoe trip through Bee Slough?…a hungry person in need of a meal or an at risk child whose life can be saved with a mosquito net (Bill Gates’ idea that he paid for by the millions) does not judge the source of the funds that feed, clothe, and protect them from the elements?…our readers should not either?…if you hate someone who directs their wealth to feed a hungry child and provides medicine for the masses, while creating jobs and wealth that benefit this country, you need to take a good long look in the mirror?

Dr. Bucshon Comments on ObamaCare Delay

3

 

 

220px-Larry_Bucshon,_official_portrait,_112th_Congress(Washington, DC) – On Monday, Congressman Larry Bucshon, a physician from Southern Indiana, released the following statement after the Administrationagain unilaterally delayed part of ObamaCare.

 

“As the President tells the American people his signature law is a success that is working, his Administration unilaterally delays it again. Why are hardworking families expected to face the burden of higher premiums, huge deductibles, and restricted physician networks, while other parts of the law are delayed at the whim of the President?

 

“I agree with the President – businesses shouldn’t have to deal with this disastrous law, but neither should families. He should join with House Republicans to delay this train wreck for the families who are struggling to find the affordable coverage they were promised.

 

“If the President has the power to delay the law for some Americans, he can certainly delay it for everyone. Why is he waiting?”


Recent SCOTUS decision trims identity-theft sentence

0

Dave Stafford for www.theindianalawyer.comindianalawyer

An Indiana man convicted of stealing the Social Security numbers of more than 10 people must be sentenced to less time in prison because of a recent Supreme Court of the United States decision, the 7th Circuit Court of Appeals ruled in a five-page opinion Friday.

Timmothy Williams’ sentence will be significantly reduced, the Circuit Court ruled, because he was sentenced under guidelines calling for longer incarceration that were revised after Williams committed the crimes.

Williams pleaded guilty in U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Indiana, Hammond, to an 11-count indictment charging him with identity theft, making a false statement to an IRS agent and aggravated identity theft. He was sentenced to 56 months in prison, compounded by an additional 24 months because there were more than 10 victims. In a per curiam opinion, a panel of the Circuit Court ruled that there would have been no constitutional problems with the sentence under prior 7th Circuit precedent.

“While this case was on appeal, however, the Supreme Court held that applying the guidelines in effect at sentencing violates the ex post facto clause if it raises the defendant’s imprisonment rage,” the court wrote, citing Peugh v. United States, 133 S.Ct. 2072, 2078 (2013).

The panel remanded United States of America v. Timmothy Williams, 13-1260, to Northern District Chief Judge Philip P. Simon with instructions to resentence Williams to 30 to 37 months in prison.
