Legal wrangling between the attorneys outside the presence of the jury consumed most of the second day of the trial underway this week in White County Circuit Court.
The family of the defendant, Dr. Johendra Chhabra, also asked The Times to clarify a point made in an earlier article about the doctor's business in Norris City.
Legal wrangling between the attorneys outside the presence of the jury consumed most of the second day of the trial underway this week in White County Circuit Court.
The family of the defendant, Dr. Johendra Chhabra, also asked The Times to clarify a point made in an earlier article about the doctor's business in Norris City.
The doctor is accused of improper sexual contact with a then-23-year-old patient in his Norris City office at his doctor's clinic business in late 2011. Chhabra's physician's license has since been suspended pending the outcome of the criminal trial. The Times reported Chhabra's practice "has since shut down," which could be construed to mean the doctor's Norris City clinic has shut down. Instead, it meant only Dr. Chhabra was not actively seeing patients at his clinic, however, health care needs are still being served at the clinic by other health care providers at the clinic, which is owned by Chhabra.
The first witness called by the state Thursday was Illinois State Police Detective Rick White. He was called to the stand just before 11 a.m. after White County State's Attorney Denton Aud and defense counsel, Bryan Drew of Benton, spent the bulk of the morning arguing various technical issues before Judge Mark Stanley.
The judge, upon seating the jury, told them not to read too much into the delay, saying only there were some "technical issues" beyond the court's control that caused the delay.
White testified he was contacted by White County Sheriff's Sgt. Craig Poole who asked him to meet him at Doug's Convenience Mart in Norris City where the alleged victim had spotted the sergeant and made the allegations against Chhabra.
White said he met with the woman at Doug's then arranged a videotaped interview with her at the Guardian Center in Carmi. White identified photos presented by Aud as photos he took depicting an injury to the woman's lip and a minor abrasion on her back. White noted a prominent tattoo on her lower back.
He testified she was crying and upset and alleged Chhabra had told her to wait in his office for a prescription for Adderall, to treat her symptoms of ADHD.
She alleged to White the doctor had entered the office, locked the door and bent her over a desk where he pulled her hair, sucked on her lip and ran his hand down the front of her pants, making contact with her genitalia.
White said the woman alleged the doctor had pulled a clump of her hair from her head and it had dropped to the floor during the alleged brief attack, which she said ended when the two made eye contact.
White testified he obtained a search warrant for Chhabra's office to retrieve the hair then he and other officers went to the Norris City clinic to find the hair.
He said the "clump" of hair was located in Chhabra's office and Chhabra consented to a non-custodial interview in his office. This interview became a central point of the rest of the day.
White alleged Chhabra had said during this interview, "I made an *** out of myself today." White alleged Chhabra said he had contact of a "hugging and kissing" nature when he was with the woman in his office. He said he was remorseful about the contact because he is married and should not have had contact in that way.
White testified Chhabra had locked the door because he anticipated receiving "hugs and kisses" from the woman. He denied pulling the woman's hair or fondling her below the waist. White said he asked the doctor if he had changed the prescription at this point to include a pain killer.
Chhabra allegedly told White he did add a pain killer because the woman had complained of back pain. He said he had observed the woman's back when she had raised her shirt to show him where she was hurt. He said there was no obvious external injury and he did not see a tattoo.
Defense counsel made several jabs at White's allegations and his testimony about "hugs and kisses" became a central point of contention.
The jury is not allowed to hear, because of a pre-trial defense motion that was granted by the judge, about a prior romantic relationship between the alleged victim and Chhabra. Drew attempted to solicit some of this information from White but after a lengthy and somewhat heated sidebar, the judge sustained an objection by Aud concerning the line of questioning.
Later in the day, outside the presence of the jury, Drew argued before the court that the statement made by White that Chhabra had anticipated "hugs and kisses" left the jury to draw an incriminating conclusion about the statement, when, in fact, what Chhabra had told the investigators was he anticipated "MORE hugs and kisses," which puts his motive for locking the door behind him in a different light.
Ultimately, the judge ruled the defense had asked for and received the order for witnesses not to discuss the prior relationship and could not now change their mind and use it at the convenience of the defense.
Drew also raised another point before the jury during the cross examination of White. He reminded White he had testified that the alleged victim was crying on the videotape. Drew asked if he also remembered the woman was laughing at some points during the interview. White said he didn't recall the woman laughing.
Drew then quoted from a transcript of the videotaped interview and alleged she had laughed about Chhabra having a "towel" on his head, which was a slur directed at Chhabra's turban.
Aud objected to the questioning, calling it inflammatory, but Drew withdrew the question.
The only other witness to testify was Glenn Schubert, a forensic examiner at the Illinois State Police crime lab in Carbondale. He said there were about 25 hairs in the "clump" found in the office and sent to the lab. He said the roots provided evidence the hairs were forcibly removed from the head of a human Caucasian. He also said during cross examination the hairs were not removed by brushing or by tweezers.
Drew asked if the trace evidence could reveal who pulled the hair out of the head, and he said it did not, obviously trying to implicate the woman as being the one who pulled the hair out. It was the second time Drew had made that implication, the first being when White was on the stand. Drew asked White if he remembered the woman reminding him on several occasions to be sure and find the hair in the office.
The defense stipulated the state's last witness of the day, a DNA examiner from the ISP crime lab, would testify that she tested the hair and it did belong to the alleged victim.
The state was unable to call its last witness, stating the witness had fallen ill and was unable to be in court Thursday. The judge called a recess around 2 p.m. with the state expected to call its last witness Friday morning (today) to be followed by the defense's witnesses.

Tigers post league victories over Onsted, Blissfield
The four-time defending Division 4 state champion Hudson High School wrestling team dominated its competition in Wednesday night's Lenawee County Athletic Association quad featuring Blissfield, Onsted and Ida.
The Tigers defeated Blissfield in their first match 69-6 and later beat Onsted 64-3. Not a stressful night for Hudson coach Scott Marry, but every match adds experience and gets his team ready for further competition.
"We had some good looks tonight. We tried to find the best matchups we could to give both wrestlers a chance to win," said Marry. "The season's end is closing in quickly and were looking to hit our peak here soon as we get ready for counties and districts. I plan to intensify practice, but also shorten the time span to get our guys fresh."
Hudson had 10 wrestlers go 2-0 on the day: Dylan Leathers (103 pounds), Tyler Roberts (112), Isaac Dusseau (119), Dustin Mattison (125), JD Waters (140), John Martinez (145), Mohammad Ibrahim (152), Mitch Ely (189), Jake Morgan (215) and heavyweight Zach Rieger.
The two wins advances Hudsons overall dual record to 24-5. The Tigers will host their own Super 16 Tournament on Saturday.
Blissfield went 0-2 on the day with their loss to Hudson and a 63-12 defeat against Ida.
"Hudson and Ida are really good competition for our wrestlers," said Blissfield coach Andy Ford. "Today was a good measuring tool; no one on the team backed down. Everyone was excited to face great competition, and we wrestled quite well despite the losses. We're looking forward to closing the year out strong at counties and the rest of league matches."
Senior 189-pounder Thomas Jackson had a good day for Blissfield, splitting his two matches.
Blissfield (14-12) will compete in Saturday's team tournament at Bronson.
Onsted also went 0-2 on the day as the lack of numbers continue to hurt the team.
"Lack of wrestlers and giving up voids has been the story all year. We need to win every match to even stand a chance at winning," said Onsted coach David Pearce. "We continue to wrestle well with the guys we do have. We will look to improve on some things in practice and get things together for districts. Hopefully we can finish the year on a strong note."
Isaac Westgate (130) went 2-0 for the Wildcats.
Onsted (3-21) will compete at Saturday's tournament at Chelsea.

Revision as of 11:23, 28 May 2010
Academic appointees have additional responsibilities which are described in this section. These responsibilities include those established by the Faculty Council and approved by the Trustees of Indiana University which are identified in the Code of Academic Ethics, the Code of Student Ethics, the policy on political activities by University Employees, and the AAUP/ACE statement on conflict of interest situations in government-sponsored work. Additionally, there are areas in which faculty committees and/or administrators have identified faculty responsibilities. These include policies on protection of the rights of human subjects, proper care of laboratory animals, and contacts with external foundations, state and federal agencies.
Code of Academic Ethics
The Code of Academic Ethics contains two major sections. The first section includes a general statement about the rights and responsibilities of scholarship, teaching, librarianship, relations with colleagues, relations to the University, and relations to the community. This section also contains an enumeration of specific responsibilities related to teaching, librarianship, and University citizenship. The second section describes enforcement procedures. All academic appointees should be familiar with the Code of Academic Ethics (see Policy I-1).
Code of Student Ethics
The Code of Student Ethics (updated as Indiana University Code of Student Rights, Responsibilities, and Conduct and approved by the Trustees on 12/13/96) describes detailed rights and responsibilities of students, defines student and faculty misconduct, and stipulates complaint procedures. (http://www.iu.edu/~code/index.shtml )
Enhanced Understanding of Cultural Diversity
Given the manifest problems of society which have racial, ethnic, and gender discrimination at their base, it was considered essential for the Bloomington campus of Indiana University to develop a strategy to educate students and faculty about cultural diversity and to enforce appropriate standards of conduct. Upon recommendation of the Educational Policies Committee, BFC action in March, 1990 established a set of recommendations. (See Policy I-2). These include that programs be conducted which are targeted at all incoming students, that each degree-granting unit have a cultural diversity degree requirement, and that diversity programs be conducted for all faculty and librarians and repeated annually for new appointees, and for all new Associate Instructors.
Statement of Civility
In 1999, the BFC reaffirmed the campus's commitment to the principle that civility and respect should be extended to all persons regardless of their role at Indiana University, and regardless of race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, and age. Civility and mutual respect help create an environment in which each member of the campus community is viewed as important and can succeed. (See Policy I-3).
Contacts with External Agencies
The Vice President for Public Affairs and Government Relations has established guidelines for contacts with governmental officials, agencies, foundations, etc., at the Federal and state levels (see Policy I-4). The purpose of the policy is to ensure adherence to federal guidelines on legislative contacts and lobbying procedures, to coordinate the contacts made to these groups, and to keep administrative officials of Indiana University informed. If the University takes an institutional position on an issue with an external agency or foundation, this must be approved by the Vice President for Research Administration; any positions expressed to elected officials must be approved by the Vice President for Public Affairs and Government Relations. Most official University positions are presented by the administrative officers of the University. Personal and professional contacts with the groups, in person or in writing, should be done in the name of the person or professional group and should not make reference to Indiana University.
Political Activities
The Faculty Council action concerning political activities of Faculty members states that: "The University recognizes the right of academic appointees to engage in political activities beyond those normally entailed in voting and participating in routine community, state, and national programs, provided that the participation does not prevent the full discharge of the faculty member's academic responsibilities." It further provides that 1) should the activity prevent full discharge of academic obligations, the appointee will be asked to request a leave without pay, 2) such activities should be reported to the chairperson, school dean and the Vice Provost for Faculty and Academic Affairs, and 3) should a disagreement arise between an appointee and an administrator, the appointee may appeal to the Faculty Board of Review, which shall make a final decision. (See Policy I-5).
Substance-free Workplace
The Drug Free Workplace Act of 1988 and the federal Drug Free Schools and Campuses Act of 1990, prohibits the unlawful possession, use, distribution, manufacture or dispensing of illicit drugs and alcohol, including controlled substances, on Indiana University's premises, or while conducting university business off university premises. In addition to possible penalties under federal and state law, failure to comply with this policy may result in any of the following sanctions: 1. reprimand, suspension, or termination 2. required completion of substance abuse treatment or substance abuse education program
In addition, an employee must notify his/her dean or chair of his/her conviction for violations occurring on or off university premises while conducting university business. This must be done within 5 calendar days after the conviction.
The abuse of alcohol and other drugs increases the risk for a number of health related problems. In addition, alcohol and drug abuse can contribute to a number of social, behavioral and academic work performance problems. Indiana University encourages individuals with alcohol or other drug related problems to seek assistance through their health care provider or the Employee Assistance Program at 888-234-8327.
Conflicts of Commitment Involving Outside Professional Activities
The University Faculty Council adopted a policy on conflicts of commitments that was subsequently approved by the Board of Trustees in 2006. (See Policy I-6). Conflicts of commitment arise when an outside professional activity interferes with an academic appointee's ability to fulfill the obligations of his or her academic appointment, or when an appointee undertakes, on behalf of another organization, activities that would ordinarily be performed on behalf of Indiana University. Examples including teaching for another educational institution or undertaking externally funded research activities when the financial sponsorship is managed entirely outside of Indiana University. Conflicts of commitment must be disclosed to Deans or unit heads. Violations of this policy, including failure to file a disclosure, knowingly filing an incomplete, erroneous, or misleading disclosure, or failure to comply with prescribed procedures for managing an identified conflict of commitment, will be adjudicated in accordance with the Code of Academic Ethics and any applicable misconduct policies and procedures.
Financial Conflicts of Interest in Research
The many interactions that members of the University community have with business, government, not-for-profit groups, professional societies, academic institutions, and other individuals and organizations, as well as with community, political, religious, and cultural activities and institutions inherently create the potential for conflicts of interest in which external activities, income or other interests affect–or might appear to affect–the manner or extent to which those individuals pursue research within the University. Such real or apparent conflicts, when not appropriately disclosed and addressed, can undermine public and professional confidence in the integrity of University research and sponsored programs. Additionally, federal law and regulations require Indiana University to have a process in place to manage conflicts of interest involving federally funded research. (See Policy I-7). In order to comply with federal regulations and to ensure that faculty are aware of, and follow, appropriate disclosure procedures, the University Faculty Council and Board of Trustees adopted a formal policy on financial conflicts of interest involving University research and sponsored programs. (See Policy I-8). The policy defines a "significant financial interest," the policies and procedures for disclosure of significant financial interests, and the policies and procedures to resolve and manage financial conflicts of interest. On the Bloomington campus, all full or part-time tenured or tenure-track faculty, visiting faculty, and research scientists/ scholars are required to complete an annual conflict of interest disclosure form whether or not they conduct research. (See Policy I-9). Principal investigators are also required to ensure that any staff, students, or other employees who participate in the design, conduct, or reporting of research, complete a conflict of interest disclosure form. Anyone engaged in any sponsored program, whether or not it involves research, must also complete an annual disclosure form. The BFC Conflicts of Interest Committee reviews any disclosures that present a potential conflict of interest and has the responsibility for developing, through consultation with the affected researcher and the researcher's unit, management plans or other appropriate means for resolving actual or potential conflicts.
Intellectual Property
The Board of Trustees updated its earlier policy on patents in 2008 in a new policy which implements the Indiana University "Statement of Principles on Intellectual Property." (see Policies I-10 AND I-11). The policy defines categories of intellectual property (e.g., patentable intellectual property, traditional works of scholarship) and the University's rights to use, patent, or sell such works, describes the distribution of revenues, establishes the Intellectual Property Policy Council to resolve disputes regarding intellectual property within the university, and describes implementation procedures. Under this policy, the primary division of intellectual property is between patentable and copyrighted works. Generally speaking, ownership of patentable work is vested in the University. Copyrighted works are subdivided into Traditional Works of Scholarship, ownership of which remains with the creator of the work, and University Works (e.g., copyrighted works specifically commissioned by the University), for which the University retains ownership. The revenues from intellectual property owned by the University are distributed according to a formula set out in the policy. In 2009, the Bloomington Faculty Council adopted a campus-specific resolution regarding the specific interpretation of the distribution formula on the Bloomington campus (see Policy I-12). The Indiana University Research and Technology Corporation (IURTC) holds and manages the University's intellectual property.
Research Misconduct
The conduct of research rests on the foundation of intellectual honesty. The major responsibility for maintaining standards of intellectual integrity rests with individual scholars and with the departments in which they work. Faculty members must exercise active leadership in their supervisory roles in mentoring, collaborating with, or directing junior colleagues, staff, or students. The University supports these efforts by providing an environment for open inquiry in which research can be conducted appropriately, declaring the standards which must not be abrogated, and enforcing the standards on those occasions where violations may have occurred. The University Faculty Council set forth policies and procedures for the maintenance and enforcement of such standards in 2007. (See Policy I-13). The policy defines research misconduct and describes the procedures the reporting, investigation, and resolution of research misconduct allegations on all campuses of the University. These procedures cover the filing of a complaint, an initial inquiry, any subsequent investigation, the resolution, and the appeals process.
The Use of Human Subjects in Research
Indiana University publishes and administers policies which serve to protect the rights and welfare of human beings who participate in research studies conducted on behalf of the University. The Office of the Vice President for Research Administration (OVPRA) has responsibility for administering these policies. OVPRA is advised by an Executive Oversight Committee and a Faculty Advisory Committee. In addition, there are review boards serving each campus of Indiana University. These review boards monitor ongoing research and review all research plans involving human beings to ensure full compliance with the University's polices and any relevant state and federal regulations. It is the responsibility of any appointee conducting or planning to conduct research involving human subjects to be fully informed of University policies in this area and to ensure that the actual or planned research is in full compliance with these policies. Strict adherence to these policies is required whether or not the research in question has or is envisioned as having external sponsorship and funding. Compliance will typically involve: 1) Prior scrutiny and approval by the University-designated campus review board, to assure compliance with all University policies and federal regulations in this area. 2) Documented consent of human participants in the research who may be in any degree of risk, whether it be physical, psychological, legal or economic risk, as a consequence of the research project, unless the consent requirement is formally waived by the campus review board. 3) Demonstration that the expected scientific value of the research justifies the degree of risk to human subjects and that such risk has been minimized to the extent possible. Full listings of the relevant University policies and procedures are available from the OVPRA website: http://www.researchadmin.iu.edu/. As soon as any possibility of utilizing human subjects emerges in the course of designing research, the responsible investigator should immediately obtain the relevant University policies, become familiarized with them and seek guidance and clarification, if necessary, from the appropriate human subjects campus office identified on the OVPRA website. As with all campuses of Indiana University, the campus review board in Bloomington maintains an office and staff to administer the policies of the review board and to assist the board with its review process. Any questions regarding the board and/or its policies or information on how to submit an application for review by the board should be directed to this office. The Bloomington human subjects office location and contact information can be found at http://www.iub.edu/~ora/HumanSubjects/IUB/hs_home.html.
Use of Animals
It is the policy of Indiana University that animals required for teaching and research are housed, cared for, and used in accordance with the highest standards of comfort and cleanliness, as required by regulations and guidelines of the Animal Welfare Act, the National Institutes of Health, and the Public Health Service (See Policy I-14).
Federal assurances require that Indiana University provide for the humane care and use of all animals used in research or instruction. All proposals involving vertebrate animals in teaching and research activities must be reviewed and approved by the appropriate Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee (IACUC) before such studies are initiated to determine that the use of animals is appropriate and that the proposed methods minimize pain and discomfort. On the Bloomington campus, the Bloomington Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee (BIACUC) oversees the review of animal use protocols, inspection of animal facilities and laboratories, animal use training and educational programs, and compliance procedures. The Committee maintains a website with a description of its procedures and links to forms, policies, and educational materials (http://www.iub.edu/~ora/cs-animaluse.html).
Whistleblower Policy
The policy supplements the existing Indiana state statute (IC 20-12-1-8) and protects Individuals who make a good faith report of suspected wrongful conduct from retaliatory academic or employment action including discharge, reassignment, demotion, suspension, harassment, or other discrimination (See Document I-15). It also describes procedures by which allegations of wrongful conduct may be disclosed, and provides a process to seek relief from retaliatory acts that fall within the authority of Indiana University. If the University has existing policies and procedures for maintaining standards of conduct and disclosing Wrongful Conduct, those policies should be followed to disclose such Wrongful Conduct. Relevant policies include but are not limited to the policies and procedures for research misconduct, the Indiana University Financial Management Services Policy on Fiscal Misconduct (I-30), and the Indiana University Financial Management Services Policy on Fraud (I-35) When available, existing policies should be used to report any wrongful conduct. Unless the complainant believes the responsible office may be involved, other instances of wrongful conduct should be reported to the university or campus office responsible for the policy area (e.g., NCAA violations should be reported to the campus athletics compliance officials and sexual harassment should be reported to the Office of Affirmative Action). Individuals who have been subjected to an adverse academic or employment action based on their good faith report of alleged Wrongful Conduct may contest the action by filing a written complaint of reprisal with the Office of University Counsel, Human Resources, or the Office of the Vice Provost for Faculty and Academic Affairs.
Guidelines on Authorship
The BFC presented guidelines for authorship credit in a 2008 policy. (See Document I-16). The guidelines identify generally accepted standards for authorship credit which include substantial contributions to conception, design or execution of a work, or acquisition of data, or analysis and interpretation of data; drafting the manuscript or revising a work critically for important intellectual content; and final approval of the version published or otherwise disseminated. Schools and departments are encouraged to adopt and disseminate policies or guidelines on authorship that address the accepted norms for credit in their areas. The policy further recommends that, when co-authors cannot resolve disagreements about credit themselves, department chairs and/or center directors intervene to mediate. If no resolution can be reached at this level, the matter should be forwarded to the dean(s) of the appropriate school(s). Students may seek advice from the Student Advocates Office. If agreement still cannot be reached, the matter will be referred to the Vice Provost for Faculty and Academic Affairs for a final decision. The Vice Provost may choose to arbitrate the disagreement through separate or collective discussions with the parties involved in the dispute or to select a committee of no fewer than three faculty members to arbitrate the dispute.
Fair Use of Copyrighted Works
Indiana University is committed to the full exercise of the rights accorded to users of copyrighted works under the "Fair-Use" provision of federal copyright law. To that end, the Board of Trustees approved a policy on the fair use of copyrighted works in 1997. The policy sets forth a set of principles which acknowledges the case-by-case application of fair use statutes, Indiana University's confidence in the ability of its faculty, staff, and librarians to make good faith decisions about fair use, the availability of resources (e.g., the University Counsel) to assist faculty, staff, and librarians in making good faith decisions, and the likelihood that Indiana University's indemnification policy will protect Indiana University community members in the event of an infringement allegation (See Document I-17).
Use of I.U. Assembly Ground
A committee appointed by the Dean of Students has developed guidelines for the use of the area designated by the Trustees of Indiana University as an assembly ground (See Document I-18).
Transportation and Parking
The BFC requested, in 1992, that a Director of Parking and Transportation be appointed to develop an integrated approach to parking and transportation. Proposals for specific actions are to be made with the advice of the BFC, student government, and staff governance through an advisory board. (See Documents I-19 and I-20).
Numerous formal and informal means of communication exist at Indiana University-Bloomington. These mechanisms are used to provide for the necessary exchange of information between the large numbers of individuals and groups on the campus. This exchange of information is essential to faculty development and participation in the life of the University. Some of the formal means of communication are described below.
Faculty Summary Report
An important formal avenue for faculty to advise administrators of their activities on a continuing basis, and to register concerns about any aspect of the University is via the annual Faculty Summary Report. The report form serves a broad range of faculty who make a variety of contributions to the University; not every category is applicable to each individual. Faculty are urged also to enter on these supplementary pages any suggestions, criticisms, or comments on matters relevant to the academic school or college or to the University. Such remarks may be submitted as part of the summary report or may be submitted directly to the Vice Provost for Faculty and Academic Affairs, who reads and often responds to them. The annual report covers activities during the calendar year, i.e., the preceding spring semester and the current fall semester. The chairperson or dean is asked to comment on the performance of each individual on the Faculty Summary Report and forward it to the Office of the Vice Provost for Faculty and Academic Affairs by a deadline on or near January 15. Faculty Summary Reports are submitted through a web-based electronic form. Faculty reports are used in the salary-setting process and for reappointment, tenure, and promotion decisions. The individual annual reports also provide a basis for portions of the school reports which must be submitted by Deans to the Provost, which are subsequently forwarded to the President and the Governor.
Campus Mail
The Campus Mail Service operates to serve the official needs of units, departments, and employees of the campus. Acceptable mail has been described as the following: 1. U.S. mail being forwarded on campus. (Misdelivered mail, properly addressed but delivered to the wrong place, will be re-delivered by the U.S. Post Office.) 2. Mail (which concerns University business) of University offices, departments (employees), and officially approved organizations, including mail of allied agencies such as I.U. Foundation. 3. Mailings by established organizations as authorized by: (a) Vice Provost for Faculty and Academic Affairs for faculty groups; (b) Personnel Office for staff groups; (c) Dean of Students for student groups. For additional guidance, it is suggested that the Campus Mail Service does not have staff or facilities to deliver the following kinds of mail: 1. Independent or commercial newspapers. 2. Mailings of churches, student religious foundations, political organizations, and non-profit or charitable organizations not directly associated with the University. 3. Faculty, staff or student group mailing unless established as Item 3 above. 4. Sales of any kind other than by official University agencies such as Auditorium Series, the Bookstore, Athletic Department, Alumni Association, etc. 5. Personal mail, including Christmas cards of an individual. 6. Subscription or sales notices from magazine or book publishers. 7. Other commercial notices, or mail for "occupant" or "boxholder." Any mailings by established organizations as authorized in Item 3 which involve use of the faculty mailing lists require further approval by the Vice Provost for Faculty and Academic Affairs. By action of the Faculty Council in 1970 (see Document I-21), use of the faculty lists is under the control of the Vice Provost for Faculty and Academic Affairs, who should "keep in mind that campus mail is appropriately used only for University or University-related affairs."
Use of Mailing Lists
Indiana University mail lists are maintained by IU Printing Services in Bloomington. These mail lists contain the names and campus addresses of all academic appointees and staff supervisors for the Indiana University system and may be used for distribution of campus mail under the following conditions. 1. The request must come from a University office, department (employee of), or officially approved organization of the University with a University account to which charges are authorized. All mailings must carry the identity or return address of the unit, organization or individual responsible for distribution. 2. The mail lists, as well as the campus mail service, may be used only for University and University-related affairs. The specific content of mailings must be in conformity with University and State regulations governing the use of University Facilities, which preclude commercial, proprietary or personal use. 3. The appropriate number of copies of the material to be mailed must be provided to IU Printing Services along with the request for addressing. 4. Labels or addressed envelopes will be provided only with approval of the sponsor of the list (academic lists—Vice Provost for Faculty and Academic Affairs; staff list--Human Resources). Labels/envelopes may be used only on the specific mailing list for which requested--lists may not be duplicated or made available to anyone else for any purpose. Violation of the above conditions may result in revocation of the right to use University addressing and mailing facilities, or in other appropriate disciplinary action (see Document I-21).
Appropriate Use of Information Technology
In 2006, the Office of the Vice President for Information Technology published a policy which restricts use of information technology to purposes related to the university's mission of research and creative activity, teaching and learning, and civic engagement (see Document I-22 http://informationpolicy.iu.edu/policies/IT01.shtml ). The policy stipulates that Indiana University technology resources may not be used in a manner that violates the law, for private commercial activities that are not approved by the university, for personal private gain, or for political campaigning and similar activities that are inconsistent with the university's tax-exempt status. Incidental personal use is considered an accepted and appropriate benefit of being associated with the university's rich technology environment.
Electronic Mail
In order to regulate the amount and content of electronic mail distributed to academic appointees through established distribution lists and listservs, the Bloomington Faculty Council instituted a policy governing the use of mass electronic mailings in 2003 (See Document I-23). In brief, the policy directs administrative offices or officials to send e-mail messages to all members of the campus community only in case or emergency or urgent need. Routine, targeted electronic mailings from administrative offices and officials must be approved by the relevant office and be directly related to the teaching and learning, research, or service missions of the University. Listservs are to be monitored in order to limit mailings. The policy also directs senders to "blind" the identities of recipients of mass mailings to specific addresses. Mass electronic mailings may not be used for commercial purposes.
Bulletin for Academic Appointees
The Office of the Vice Provost for Faculty and Academic Affairs issues biweekly the Bulletin for Academic Appointees as a further means of inter-campus communication. The Bulletin was first published to provide a mechanism for advertising academic position vacancies locally. The Bulletin is mailed to every academic office on campus. It is to be posted by chairpersons and other unit heads to give it maximum visibility for all employees and students. It is also available on the Vice Provost for Faculty and Academic Affairs' website. The website also carries listings of temporary housing availability within Bloomington, primarily as an aid to visitors coming to and University appointees leaving Bloomington for short periods of time--on leaves or for the summer months.

DENVER - Senators took action Thursday to deflect a state Supreme Court ruling that could make it difficult to keep water in reservoirs - just as drought is tightening its grip on much of the state.
The bill is among several this year that add up to the Legislature's biggest push in years to conserve water and store it for dry years.
Sen. Ellen Roberts, R-Durango, won unanimous support for Senate Bill 41 in the agriculture committee. Her bill counteracts a 2011 court ruling on the Yampa River that said reservoir owners can't get an absolute right to water in their reservoirs unless it is all put to a "beneficial use."
Colorado law has a "use it or lose it" approach to water, in order to prevent hoarding or speculation. But legislators and their allies in the water business think the court took that doctrine to an extreme.
"The Supreme Court basically issued us an invitation to do something different than what their case came up with," Roberts said.
It is a bipartisan issue. Roberts sponsored the bill along with Sen. Mary Hodge, D-Brighton.
Denver Water CEO Jim Lochhead said that unless the bill passes and reverses the Supreme Court ruling, utilities would have to suck their reservoirs dry before they could get new water rights.
"It's hopefully stepping back to a time where it's a much more practical reading of the law," Lochhead said.
The bill declares that storing water for firefighting and drought mitigation is a beneficial use, and it says water rights can't be considered to be abandoned when the water is in long-term storage.
Most major water interests have lined up to support the bill, which promises it smooth sailing as it progresses through the Senate.

Welcome to your sing-able Christmas gift list. What follows is an emergency rendition of "12 Days of Christmas" – for outfitting your home or car in case of snow storm, earthquake, flood or other emergency. Read it as a simple list, or sing it to the tune of "12 Days" – you know, as in " … and a partridge in a pear tree…" Not to make light of it, but the song is a familiar framework for a set of gift ideas that you could consider gathering together, even if the recipient already owns items such as a bunch of coats, tire chains and flashlights. Stores throughout the Gorge are stocked up on all these items. Buying all 12 days might be prohibitive, but here are three ideas for checking any of the dozen off your list (notations follow, 1-12.) The gift items needed to stay warm, dry and safe are also coded to suggest items in your abode (A) in your car (C) or both (B). 12 Gallons of Water (A) 11 Family meals (B) 10 Cans of propane (A) 9 Hygiene bags (B) 8 Packs of batteries (A) 7 Spare coats (B) 6 Bright red flares (C) 5 Cozy blankets (B) 4 Tire chains (C) 3 Flashlights (B) 2 cell phone chargers (B) 1 And a crush-proof first aid kit (B) Price ranges? Here's a few quotes for days Three, Two, Four and Nine: n A family gift of flashlights (three will run $15-30, Hood River Supply, Tum-A-Lum) n Cell phone chargers (two will run $30-60) n Tire chains (basic set, $30, Les Schwab, returnable if unused for the winter) n Family meals ($100 or so should cover the basics for three or four reasonably well-fed days) n The home kit should be kept in a handy place near an exit, and remember that water needs to be replenished every few months. If you have a solid first aid kit already, switch out the gift idea with "and-a-sto-o-u-t- tub-for it-all …" Otherwise, it's a case of assembling your home or car kits and making sure all members of the family know what the resources are and how to use them (ie flares and propane). Emergency situations are at worst life-threatening, at best deeply uncomfortable if you and your family are left without power for an extended period, or traveling and find yourself in a situation where you need to wait out a storm, lengthy traffic delay, or other crisis. Notes on the 12 gift ideas: 12 – Gallons of water: that's one per person in a four-member family to last for three days, the recommended minimum to be prepared for utility outages. 11 – Easy-open packaged goods, energy bars, dried food and nuts are good things to include for nutrition. Think of what your family of four needs for three days to stay fortified and hydrated (see number 12). Can-opener also recommended 10 – If you have a propane camping stove, keep extra fuel handy. 9 – Hygiene bags: put packaged moistened towelettes, toilet paper, and plastic ties in large garbage bags (for personal sanitation) Resource list courtesy of Hood River County Emergency Management, Barbara Ayers, manager/ 541-386-1213. The county also reminds residents to Get a Kit, Make A Plan to connect your family if separated, and Stay Informed. See www.co.hood-river.or.us to opt-in for citizen alerts.

A donated dredge and excavator will help to create new wetlands outside the south Lafourche levee system near Grand Isle.
A donated dredge and excavator will help to create new wetlands outside the south Lafourche levee system near Golden Meadow.
The equipment arrived in south Lafourche last week and went to work Wednesday.
"It's like a Tonka truck on Christmas morning," said South Lafourche Levee Director Windell Curole.
The equipment, called the Amphibex 400, is manufactured by Normrock Industries in Terrebonne, Canada.
The equipment was donated for three weeks to do restoration work in south Lafourche by Normrock and Upperline Equipment of New Orleans on the condition local officials paid the costs to mobilize and demobilize the equipment. The South Lafourche Levee District, the North Lafourche Levee District and the Terrebonne Levee District partnered to secure $150,000 from the state's Department of Natural Resources for the project.
Dupre said local restoration group Restore or Retreat connected the companies with the levee districts.
The machine is self-propelled and was able to walk itself over the Golden Meadow levee to begin work. The machine can also clean and restore waterways and ponds, control vegetation, install pipelines and conduct other environmental work.
South Lafourche already had a permit ready to build marsh just off the south Lafourche levee system near Grand Isle Park, said Terrebonne Levee Director Reggie Dupre.
Locals can see the machine working outside the levee system from Golden Meadow Park.
Marsh in that area is broken but not completely gone, Curole said. He said it is easier to build land in broken marsh because the water is usually shallower, just a few inches deep instead of feet deep.
"It hasn't fallen apart yet," he said.
Curole said the plan is to build as much marsh as the machine can in three weeks. The levee districts have an option of extending the donated dredge's time in south Lafourche at a cost of $60,000 per month if they like the machine.
Building marsh immediately outside the levee system also helps to protect the levee from erosion from waves and storms.
"There are some areas where we have a good amount of marsh left, and other places where we are losing it tremendously fast," Curole said. "We need to build it up where we can outside of the system."
The machine was donated as a demonstration project to show what this new type of equipment can do. Dupre said it provides a unique deal for levee districts in Terrebonne and Lafourche that must carefully pinch pennies to get as much protection and restoration work done for as little money as possible.
Dupre said this is a great opportunity because it typically costs $30,000 to $45,000 to build a single acre of marsh.
Since the state put up $150,000 to get the machine to south Lafourche, "anything more than 5 acres is lagniappe," he said. He added he thinks the machine will be able to build double that in three weeks.
With more companies interested in getting into the restoration business, Dupre said taking advantage of demonstration projects that aim to promote new methods of building land and protecting the coast provides a unique opportunity to get desperately needed work done at reduced cost.
The state should be flexible enough to allow these type of experiments by extending or issuing needed permits, he added.

Efforts to recover from Hurricane Sandy will only succeed if government leaders take the long view and incorporate a wide swath of stakeholders — including the private sector, experts said today at event focused on rebuilding the Jersey Shore.
In a program that opened with presentations on climate change, panelists seemed to agree that future planning must consider the potential for extreme weather to become more frequent. Anthony Broccoli, a Rutgers University professor of atmospheric science, said there is already proof that "climate change does alter the probability of extreme events."
"We know that there is a new normal," Broccoli, director of Rutgers' Climate and Environmental Change Initiative, said at the event at Monmouth University. He added, "All we have to do is look at the changes that have taken place on our shoreline."
Hosted by the planning advocacy group New Jersey Future, the event at times touched on the role that the private sector will play in rebuilding the region. Megan Linkin, a vice president with Swiss Reinsurance America Holding Corp., said the exact impact of climate change on hurricanes was still unclear, but that it was time for the insurance and reinsurance industries to play a larger role in government planning.
She highlighted one product known as parametric insurance, which pays claims based on measurable benchmarks that are reached during extreme weather, such as central pressure during a hurricane. Governments have purchased the insurance in disaster-prone areas like coastal Mexico and the Caribbean, she said, and claims are paid more rapidly than under traditional policies.
And since the claims are not based on loss assessments, policy holders also have greater discretion in how to use the funds, she said.
"There's no question that rebuilding the New Jersey coast is going be a joint effort between the government, the private sector and academia," Linkin said, calling for state and local officials to take a harder look at "risk management strategies and product offerings" from the private reinsurance industry.
The business community must also be involved in any coalition tasked with rebuilding, said Ed Blakely, former executive director of New Orleans' Office of Recovery and Development Administration. He said, "I bet for some firms in New Jersey, Kansas City is looking good now," but that state officials can tackle that issue by ensuring that economic development is a key focus in its renewal effort.
"In a global economy, firms can go anywhere they want," Blakely said, recalling the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina in 2005. "We discovered this in New Orleans, that many firms that seemed to be permanent suddenly located elsewhere."

Commonly referred to as DHA, dihydroxyacetone is a naturally occurring carbohydrate that consists of a combination of only carbon, hydrogen and oxygen. In plants like sugar beets and sugarcane, the carbohydrate is vital to supplying energy to the cells. Sometimes, DHA is called by its alternate name, glycerone.
When used in skin care products, dihydroxyacetone is often derived by isolating a compound known as glycerol from a plant that contains DHA. This can be done through a number of techniques. Once glycerol has been obtained, it is then mixed with oxygen by adding a chemical like hydrogen peroxide. This causes a reaction that frees the DHA molecules from the other materials contained in the glycerol. When isolated and kept at room temperature, DHA is a white powder that consists of tiny crystals. It dissolves easily in many different types of liquids, which makes it ideal for use in skin care products.
One of the first experimental uses for DHA was in the developing of x-rays used to diagnose medical conditions and injuries that affect the bones. In clinical trials of x-rays performed by scientists in Germany during the 1920s, it was observed that when DHA accidentally came in contact with the skin, it caused temporary darkening or discoloration.
This phenomenon was again observed during clinical trials of the 1950s, when American scientist Eva Wittgenstein experimented on the use of DHA as a drug to treat a rare metabolic disease in children. When the children in the trial touched the DHA, their skin became darker within a few hours. Curious about what she observed, Wittgenstein started to experiment by applying DHA to her own skin. It is because of her work and findings that DHA is now a common ingredient in the skin care industry.
As the German scientists and Wittgenstein observed, DHA does indeed have the potential to cause the skin to darken to a browner shade. The change in color occurs only in the outermost cells of the epidermis, the outer layer of the skin. The change in skin color occurs because DHA reacts with amino acids, the building blocks of the skin protein keratin, of which the skin tissue is primarily made. When DHA comes in contact with these amino acids, it combines with them and forms molecules called melanoidins.
The melanoidins produced from DHA and skin's amino acids can vary in shade from golden yellow to deep brown and change the color of the skin in the same way that the natural-skin pigment melanin does. Melanin is the substance responsible for causing the skin to darken or tan when it is exposed to ultraviolet rays.
Because melanoidins are similar to melanin, experts at the well-known sunscreen manufacturer Coppertone saw the potential for DHA to be used as an agent to tan the skin without the need to expose the skin to the sun. In the 1960s, the company released its first sunless tanning product, which used DHA as its active ingredient. Although this first sunless tanner was effective, it often left the skin looking orange.
Over the last three decades, improvements in the way that DHA is produced for use in skin care products has allowed for more realistic-looking results from sunless tanners that contain the ingredient. Sunless tanning agents that contain DHA now offer results that rival those possible from laying out in the sun or using a tanning bed, and the ingredient is used in sunless tanning formulas produced by many brands.
Typically, sunless tanning products that are available for sale directly to the public contain concentrations of DHA that range from 3 to 5 percent. Formulations used in spray-tanning and professional sunless tanning skin treatments may feature up to 15 percent DHA by volume. Normally, DHA-based sunless tanners take 2 to 4 hours to produce results, but the formation of the melanoidins can continue for up to 72 hours, meaning that the darkening may continue for up to 3 days. Since the color change only affects a thin layer of cells, the results of the sunless tanning remain visible only until those cells are shed through natural cellular turnover.

Printed Zipper Tank - BEBE SPORT ONLINE EXCLUSIVE is rated out of 5 by 4.
Rated 4 out of 5 by JustSelena from Exotic print makes a statement The color is a very bright watermelon pink, and the cheetah print is truly unique for a sports top, so be prepared to be noticed when you wear this top or any other items from this collection. Paired with gray and black, the print is not overbearing, it's just enough of a bright pattern to make a statement. Note that compared to other Bebe Sport tops, this one runs large - tops in XS are usually a bit tight on me in the chest but this one is very roomy and the straps are longer than usual (I am 5' 1, 97 lbs, 34B). It still fits me though, and I like it paired with the cheetah tennis skirt.

Students across Davidson County will put their pencils to paper and fingers to keyboard next week when the 2013-14 school year begins.
Students across Davidson County will put their pencils to paper and fingers to keyboard next week when the 2013-14 school year begins.
Writing assignments are a burden to some and a pleasure to others. I was that odd bird in school who liked both English and math. A more typical combination is for someone to prefer math and science or English.
That love of writing is one reason I entered the field of journalism. Today, many other avenues to share one's thoughts exist, especially with online resources. Blogs, Facebook, Twitter, forums and more allow aspiring writers a place to publish their words.
Speaking of Twitter, two reporters for The Dispatch can now be found there. Nash Dunn can be followed @LexDispatchNash, and Darrick Ignasiak can be found @DispatchDarrick. The use of Twitter and Facebook allows reporters another way to communicate with readers.
Despite all the online options, some people continue to share their views through newspapers, for which I'm grateful. Letters to the editor remain a strong part of The Dispatch's opinion page. Some writers send a letter once a month while others write when a particular subject spurs them to action.
One of my favorite parts of the newspaper involves our board of guest columnists. Next month, our 23rd board will begin writing. Some columnists have written since the very beginning.
Choosing the 26 columnists can be one of the most difficult tasks I face each year, and this year was no exception. We had 37 people apply for the 26 slots, as columnists write four times a year. To ensure a good balance of returners and newcomers meant I didn't invite some of this year's writers to return, which is always a hard thing to do.
The new slate begins Sept. 3, and over the next three months each columnist will pen their first column for the 2013-14 year. I attempted to balance the schedule between the veterans and the rookies (some of whom have written in the past), so there are 13 of each group. Look for their columns every Tuesday and Thursday.
The 23rd board, in alphabetical order, is Ron Banks, Angela Bartholow, James Berrier, Nate Branson, Cheryl Briggs, Rena Cilluffo, Dwight Cornelison, Jayme Duncan, Cathy Dunn, Lindsay Goins, Barney W. Hill, Steve Hodges, Whitley Holbrook, Ray Nance Howell IV, Wayne Hunt, Lee Jessup, Dalane Kitzman, Ken Lack, Kassaundra Lockhart, Jim Nance, Wendy Orrell, Mark Petruzzi, Holly Poplin, Mary Rittling, Connie Snyder and Denny Whalen.
Now I'll turn my attention to another group of contributors, our teen correspondents. This group of high school students write stories, columns, student profiles and questions of the week. If we reach a staff of at least 12, which is our target, then each student contributes every three weeks.
The teen section appears online only every Thursday. It starts a few weeks after students return to school. It draws young people who enjoy writing. Almost every teenager has an opinion he or she is willing to share, so the column often provides the most enjoyment for the writers. The student profile and accompanying photo are also very popular.
Serving as teen editor this year will be Alex Young, a sophomore at West Davidson High School. We graduated five seniors from last year's staff, so we're looking for some students who enjoying writing and would like to see their work in print. If you or someone you know is interested, send an email to Alex at firstname.lastname@example.com or me at the address at the end of the column.
Encouraging young journalists is part of the job I enjoy, whether they are high school students or those in college. I'm pleased that several interns who worked at The Dispatch over the years continue to make contributions in our field. And to show that sometimes life comes full circle, one of our new guest columnists, Whitley Holbrook, used to be a teen correspondent.
I hope you'll make it a point to read the guest columnists either in print or online and the teen writers online. I think you'll be impressed with the talent and thoughtfulness they show.
Chad Killebrew is executive editor of The Dispatch. He can be reached at 249-3981, ext. 215, or at firstname.lastname@example.com.

text: Although incidents of with driving while intoxicated (DWI) are relatively low in Boonville and Cooper County, the Boonville Police Department and Cooper County Sheriff's Department are ready to respond to these matters. While some may choose to get on the road while under the influence of alcohol, the Boonville Police Department has included a number of ways to help an individual impaired so they do not hurt themselves or someone else. "A lot of our typical calls for service will have alcohol involved in some form or fashion," Cooper County Sheriff Jerry Wolfe said.�� In an effort to deter people from driving while intoxicated the Boonville Police Department will have extra officers on duty New Year's Eve. Boonville Police Chief Bobby Welliver said the Boonville Police Department will be aggressively enforcing all traffic laws, including DWI.� "We would ask people to not drink and drive. They can use a designated driver, call a cab or call a friend or family member. A DWI arrest can be very costly and not only monetarily but for future employment, etc.," Welliver said. "Our goal is to keep the community safe and by not drinking and driving citizens can do their part." He said if an individual had too much to drink and is thinking of picking up their keys to run to the store or drive home, think twice before drinking and driving. "The minute you put those keys into the ignition, you are putting yourself at risk as well as any others that may cross your path," Welliver said. Below are some tips provided by the Boonville Police Department to help an individual impaired by alcohol. � If the person is a close friend, try to use a soft, calm approach at first. Suggest that he's had too much to drink and it would be better to let someone else drive or to take a cab. � Be calm. Joke about it. Make light of it. �� Try to make it sound like you are doing him a favor. �� If the person is somebody you don't know well, speak to his friends and have them make an attempt to persuade him to hand over the keys. Usually, he will listen. �� If the person is a good friend, spouse or significant other, tell him that if he insists on driving, you are not going with him. Tell him that you will call someone else for a ride, take a cab or walk. � �Locate the person's keys while he is preoccupied and take them away. Most likely, he will think he's lost his keys and will be forced to find another mode of transportation. �� If possible, avoid embarrassing the person or being confrontational. This makes him appear vulnerable to alcohol and its effects.

David "Troy" Nichols, 42, of Louisville, Ky., went home to be with our heavenly father on Tuesday, July 10, 2012 after a brief illness.
David "Troy" Nichols, 42, of Louisville, Ky., went home to be with our heavenly father on Tuesday, July 10, 2012 after a brief illness.
He was born in Milford on Sept. 20, 1969 to parents who loved him dearly, David L. and Ginger Schuler-Nichols. He was predeceased by his paternal grandparents David W. and Evelyn Dean-Nichols, his maternal grandparents Bud and Dot Potter-Schuler, and his Uncle, Buddy Schuler, Jr.
Troy worked for Lowe's Building Products for many years and upon leaving them went to work for Norandex where he held many positions. At the time of his passing he was a sales manager, having just been presented with salesman of the year.
What a special loving father he was. He loved playing sports with his sons and teaching them how to throw a football and baseball.
Left behind to cherish his memory are his parents, his wife, Nickie Bland-Nichols, his children, Cole, Camden, Katie, Trevor, and DJ, his sister Jodi Nichols-Arthur and her husband, Rick, nieces Cassie, Abbie, Dorie and a great nephew who was just born June 15, 2012 and who did not get the opportunity to meet his wonderful Great-Uncle Troy. A close cousin, John E. Greenly of Delaware, gave the eulogy with a close uncle, Terry L. Nichols of Delaware. There are many aunts, uncles, and cousins, all of whom will love him and miss him forever.
Funeral services were held at the Highland Funeral home on Taylorsville Road, Louisville, Ky., on Saturday, July 14, 2012, with Rev. Robert Tregor officiating. Entombment followed at The Calvary Cemetery, Louisville, Ky.
Visitation was held at the funeral home from 4 p.m. to 8 p.m. on Friday, July 13, 2012.

Recently, the foreign ownership of Missouri farmland came to the spotlight with the proposed sale of Smithfield Foods to a company in China. Smithfield is a U.S. company headquartered in Smithfield, Va.
Recently, the foreign ownership of Missouri farmland came to the spotlight with the proposed sale of Smithfield Foods to a company in China. Smithfield is a U.S. company headquartered in Smithfield, Va.
It expanded to Missouri in 2007, and acquired Premium Standard Farms, the second largest pork producer and the sixth largest pork processor in the United States. This made Smithfield Foods the largest hog producer and pork processor in the world. The proposed sale is to Shuanghui International Holdings, which is China's largest meat processing company.
While the Smithfield-Shuanghui sale was unanimously approved by the boards of both companies and is expected to be official in the second half of this year, Smithfield Foods shareholders, along with federal government anti-trust regulators, still must give their approval to the sale. The total package deal is valued at $7.1 billion, which includes Smithfield's debt. It is estimated that Smithfield Foods may own as many as 50,000 acres of Missouri farmland, not counting land owned in other states. To date, this is one of the largest purchases of a U.S. food corporation by a Chinese company.
Missouri has decades-old statutes that basically ban foreign ownership of Missouri farmland, though these statutes are virtually untested. Some existing foreign farmland owners acquired their land by working around these laws and shifting their property into majority-held U.S. subsidiaries and corporations.
In 2011, the house agriculture committees began looking more deeply into the issue of foreign ownership of Missouri farmland. The Missouri Department of Agriculture issues a required annual report of state farmland owned by foreign entities. The department's last report was Dec. 31, 2012, and it revealed a total of 201,268 acres of foreign-owned farmland in the state, a 109,811-acre increase over the previous year's report.
The total acreage owned by foreign investors represents 70 percent of the reported 28,900,000 acres of Missouri farmland. According to the Missouri Department of Agriculture's report that lists the country of ownership and the number of acres of foreign owned farmland in our state, the largest non-U.S. owners in Missouri are Italian investors, who own 102,771 acres. The largest non-U.S. owners in Newton County are New Zealanders, who own 3,500 acres, but who own 18,578 total acres statewide. It was obvious that current law is not working if its intent is to slow or stop foreign investors from purchasing our state's farmland.
Late in session this year, my committee on agriculture policy heard proposed legislation to address foreign ownership of land in Missouri. We decided not to vote the bill out of committee, as we needed time to do more research and to more closely examine the issue. Though many of those on the agriculture committees are against selling our state's farmland to foreign interests, it is important to point out that not every person in the legislature is opposed to it.
What our proposed legislation would have done was to limit foreign ownership of farmland to half of 1 percent of Missouri's total farm acreage. It would also have given the Missouri Department of Agriculture the right to accept or reject any foreign land purchase. Furthermore, when we examined the report, we discovered we were already at 7/10 of 1 percent, well over the half of 1 percent of our targeted allotment.
The last week of session, the representative from north Missouri who carried the foreign ownership bill decided to place it as an amendment on two omnibus bills, Senate Bill 9 and Senate Bill 342. In the amendment, the percentage allowed for foreign ownership of Missouri farmland was raised to a full 1 percent, or approximately 289,000 acres. In addition, this amendment gave the Missouri Director of Agriculture—a governor-appointed position — a major say in potential foreign land ownership.
SB 9 and SB 342 are the two ag omnibus bills that Gov. Nixon recently vetoed, stating that they would remove all restrictions on foreign purchases of Missouri farmland. However, the legislation did not open the door to foreign investors, as was the impression given. It actually sought to cap their ownership at 1 percent and not allow for unlimited purchases of our farm acreage.
The surprise announcement of the Smithfield-Shuanghui sale was made public on May 29, almost two weeks after the close of session. How good is this sale for Missouri, and the United States as a whole? Shuanghui International Holdings is poised to acquire a major U.S. food entity, and how one views foreign ownership of our nation's farmland and food corporations will determine how one views this sale.
