He devoted his life in the areas of higher education and community involvement. To know him as an educator, all you had to do was ask one of his former students.

He will be greatly missed.
Dr. Ralph Athen Tesseneer, Jr. of Campbellsville, KY, died at 5amET, on Sunday, October 11, 2015, at his home at the age of 91.

Doesn't care what you call him, as long as you call him to eat. A perfect dog. He already knows all he wants to know. At left, Doug with the Wonder Dog

By Ralph Waggener
A man with a perfect right to be proud of his grand-dog

My son, Doug Waggener, has a Great dog that would put Jr. Stotts, Tommy Grider, Prof Reed, and Johnny Vaughn's dogs to shame.
First off, he came from the Dog Pound; so, low cost. He is low maintenance in that he goes to the woods behind the house to relieve him self and does not need a bath.

Louisville Bridge to open ahead of schedule - Before Christmas!

Public will have a chance to 'Walk the Bridge' before it opens to traffic

Commonwealth News Center

Louisville, KY - Speaking from the deck of the new Interstate 65 bridge in downtown Louisville, Gov. Steve Beshear announced today the bridge will open to two-way traffic ahead of schedule.

"In January, I stood at the base of this massive project and announced we were accelerating the schedule," Gov. Beshear said. "Today, I'm walking on this beautiful new bridge and telling you we're moving even faster than expected. Drivers will get an early present - you will be driving on the new bridge by Christmas!"

An exact date for the opening of the new bridge will be determined closer to that date. Gov. Beshear said the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet and crews with Walsh Construction are on budget and ahead of schedule. Officials are confident the bridge will be ready to carry traffic before Dec. 25.

The phone is ringing again. And again. And again

A rant about unwanted calls and what one Taylor Countian is doing about it. He directs this piece mainly to seniors
Click on headline for complete commentary

By Harry Mack

This commentary is for those of you that still have land-line phones with caller ID. That usually means most of us seniors, since the younger generations live glued to their cell phones.

Seniors are targeted more by rip-off artists, which I call shysters. I was raised in a different part of the country, so that term may not be familiar, but I learned it from my father. It means someone that is trying to get money out of you by deceptive means or pressure.
