Governor honor
Gov. Mitch Daniels honored Jay County business Display Craft with a Half Century Award for its longevity and community impact.
Display Craft, Portland, became one of more than 1,300 companies in the state to be honored with the award during the past 19 years.
The company has been making retail signs and products since 1958 and produces products for interior and exterior displays for companies around the Midwest.
'Copter canceled
Life Air announced it will end its agreement to provide air ambulance service to Ball Memorial Hospital after six months.
The helicopter transport company, which stationed a chopper at the hospital, will terminate service to BMH on Nov. 14. Life Air told BMH officials that flight volume was not enough to maintain service at the hospital.
LifeLine Critical Care Transport will take over service effective Nov. 15, but those helicopters will have to be called in from outside the Muncie area.
Profits up
Comcast Corp. reported a 22 percent profit increase in the third quarter.
Investors were following how a deal to purchase a 51 percent stake in NBC Universal would turn out. Comcast is negotiating a deal with General Electric Co., which owns 80 percent of NBC.

The restaurant will donate 50 cents of each slice of pumpkin pie and $1 for each whole pie to 16 non-profit organizations around the area.
