Just the other day when news broke that Kentucky Attorney General Jack Conway was hit by credit card fraud my first thought was,"Gee, it can happen to anyone." The next thing I know it has happened to anyone. No, not anyone. Someone. Someone I call Mom and Dad. ...O.K. What's it like to work with Rachel Platt? It's a question I hear at least one time every day. I hear it so often I've decided to blog about it here on WHAS 11.com. ...I have seen it all. I always think that in this business but as far as animals go I think I really have seen it all now. I am working on a series about pet sanctuaries and animal rescues. These places pride themselves on being what's known as "no-kill" facilities. Every animal they house can stay there indefinitely. I traveled to Nicholasville, KY to check out a couple of sanctuaries I found online. The first place is called Primate Resc...
I first learned about gangs using sports logos to represent their names when an email was forwarded to me. The email had a video clip showing young men flashing sports symbols on their clothes and throwing up gang signs. ...Rachel Platt, GMK anchor Ladies, this one is for you. A new law that is. In Indiana it's now the law that new moms must be given the time and place to pump at work. May not sound like a big deal, but let me tell you a story. A small notice in the obituary page with his picture today announces the death of E.S. Tichenor, Scott Tichenor of Louisville. But his death is more noteworthy than that notice in the CJ. Even though I never met Scott, my wife and I visited his unique antique/interiors store in Louisville's Butchertown neighborhood alot. I always laugh each time I hear him say it. "Hello everyone and welcome back to the Sunday Morning talk show, I'm Joe Elliott the cheap, part-time help." Entry contributed by Ladonia Rae Stivers, STAFF 2008 President, Sisters Together Achieving Financial Freedom, an investment club. Have you ever wanted to know more about investing or stocks, but did not know were to look? Have you ever wanted to invest, but did not know were to start? ...Last night on WHAS, Ken Schulz said his goodbye to viewers and all of his friends here at WHAS. After the 6pm news, Ken stayed here for about an hour and a half, taking phone calls from people. The one call that came into the newsroom that surprised the most of us was from Chuck Taylor's son, who still lives in Louisville. Many of us who've been here awhile remember when Chuck would bring his son to work with him and he'd hang out in the... No one knew longtime WHAS TV Weekend Gardener Fred Wiche better than the guy I've taken a picture of that you see in this story. A back and forth game in Anaheim California has Marquette leading Kentucky 33-29 at halftime. Kentucky got out to a quick start but then cooled down aobut five minutes into the half. At that point Marquette went on a 12-0 run to take a 16-10 lead. The Wildcats had a tough time stopping penetration from the Golden Eagle guards. ...Coach Billie Gillispie is fired up on Kentucky's bench during todays first round NCAA tournament game. After a fast start Perry Stevenson got pulled from the game for not defending the pick and roll and about one minute afterward AJ Stewart got yanked as well. Both got an earfull from Gillispie. ...It's gametime in Anaheim California and Perry Stevenson has cracked the starting lineup. The old adage, “March comes in like a lion… goes out like a lamb”, has certainly started out true this time around. We can only hope that the second half of the saying proves just as reliable. ...What a long strange trip it has been! When I was asked by our News Director Genie if I was interested in travelling for the SEC and NCAA Tournaments I jumped at the opportunity. I was a Sports guy in Cincinnati for a number of years, and I thought I knew the drill. In reality, I had now idea what was about to come. But really, who could have? ...The Kentucky Wildcats came out cold after their unexpectedly delayed first SEC Tournament game. Scoreless in the first few minutes Joe Crawford finally knocked the lid off of the basket with a three pointer at the 15:50 mark of the first half. ...
In December, I went to Washington D.C. to visit my best college girlfriends. While sitting at lunch over a big salad and a tall glass of water, somehow the subject of fake handbags came up. It quickly turned into a spirited debate. You see, my dear friend is an attorney. One who studied intellectual property and copyright. She read me the riot act when I asked, "What's the big deal? Who is it really hurting when you buy a fake." <... |
