I cannot express the joy I felt Wednesday while watching TV and not seeing one political ad.

I have complained bitterly and often about the downright ridiculous manner in which our local courts are conducted.

A Corbin man is suing a local charity group over injuries he suffered when he fell out of a "defective" chair while playing bingo at the group's Corbin facility.

A Rockhold man is accused of assaulting a police officer and a service dog while trying to elude Williamsburg police Monday evening after they tried to serve him with an arrest warrant for robbery.

In his first run for political office, newcomer Jason Price has beat incumbent Fred White in the battle for division-two district judge in Whitley and McCreary counties by nearly 1,000 votes.

The 2008 General Election brought little change to the governing councils in Whitley County's two cities as incumbents in Williamsburg and Corbin turned away challengers to win back their seats.
