Today's Opinions

  • Going on a cruise to the end of the road

    By Candy Clarke

     

    Recently, I decided it would be fun to take a drive for a few hours - without any given destination in mind.

    No shopping, just driving around the local areas and enjoying the sights along with the changing topography. It was a warm sunny day and it would give me a chance to perhaps take some more photos of Henry County and the surrounding counties.

  • UTI can be more than just a pain

    By Katherine Jett

     

    The burning, the pressure, and feeling like you need to urinate all the time – if you have ever had a bladder infection this description is all too familiar. 

    A urinary tract infection is caused by bacteria in the urinary bladder that overcomes the body’s natural defenses and causes infection. Infections can be limited to the bladder or can also spread to the kidneys causing pyelonephritis.  Occasionally in men the infection can also infect the prostate.

  • I just want my stairs back

    The stairs were removed from the inside wall of the KOI building on Main Street and laid out in the parking lot last week on their way to their new home in the new Browning’s building. I spent all one night cleaning off the loft we were going to use the steps on, only to find them gone. I have reported them to the police as stolen, however we have considered the possibility someone picked them up from outside the building thinking we were discarding them. If so, please bring them back. They are not yours. All will be forgiven!

  • Protecting military voters

    I want to thank Allison Lundergan Grimes for standing up for Kentucky’s military. Our military members make tremendous sacrifices to protect our rights and they deserve our best efforts to preserve their right to vote. It’s refreshing to see an elected official making that effort. I hope members of the General Assembly will join Secretary Grimes in standing up for the military and pass Senate Bill 1 as it was originally filed.

  • Pleasureville Economic Developemen

    Commissioner Diane Perry and I Commissioner Shawn Mertz  would like to invite all interested citizens, business owners, church leaders, and any other interested parties to the next Pleasureville city Commission meeting to discuss future economic development and city growth.  Henry County Judge Executive John Logan Brent, Magistrate Jerry Beasley, Shelby County Judge Executive Rob Rothenburger, Magistrate Bill Hedges will be present for the meeting. 

  • The science of modern medicine

    I would never pretend to possess any of the sacred knowledge reserved for the inner sanctum of modern medicine.
    Nor would I ever fool myself into believing I have the stamina for the pressure doctors experience on a daily basis.
    I will however critique my latest doctor visit with an educated amount of violent declamation.

  • Public Meeting on Preservation and Growth

    The citizens of Eminence, members of the Eminence City Council, the Eminence Mayor, and any and all interested parties are invited to a public forum to be held today, Wednesday Feb. 20, in the meeting room of the public library in Eminence. The meeting will start at 6:30 p.m.

  • Being self-employed is hard work

    By Lance Minnis

     

    I was reading one of the blogs I follow and an article caught my attention: Are Self-Employed People Entrepreneurs or Slackers? The author had attended a networking event and been told by a recruiter that “self-employed people are just people who can’t find work or keep a job anywhere else.”
