Oh, Kentucky



Lousiville mayor Jerry Abramson's Trigg County travels to campaign for lieutenant governor inspires The Heath Post's second restaurant review: The Cadiz Family Restaurant (picture from summer 2009) is good!

You've got to like Torie DiMartile's chances. The Fort Mitchell Beechwood student has finished runner-up two years running, both years coming up just short against Western Hills juggernaut Barbara Gooding, who got to play at home in Frankfort in the championships and who has graduated and taken her game to the next level at the Rhode Island School of Design.

The Kentucky National Guard is preparing 60 more patriots to go help build Afghanistan's agriculture economy.

Christians only, but not the only Christians--in Slaughters.

From Hoptown, a chapter from earlier in the story arc of an organization, its tradition and transition.

Middlesboro, too.

The KHSAA basketball tournaments threw the HP Kentucky Bureau for a loop this week, so we are working the weekend to belatedly relay some big news out of the commonwealth this week:

-- Congratulations, Wendell Berry! (And thank you, Courier-Journal! I don't believe I'd ever heard of Port Royal, Ky. before reading your story; it turns out the town is near New Castle)

-- Rest in peace, "Dude" Hennessey. (He was three years younger than Bill Arnsparger, who also grew up in Paris while Blanton Collier coached there.)

-- Hooray for Lexington and Russellville!
