Farmer's actions may be 'unforgettable'
Even though his jersey hangs among famed University of Kentucky Wildcat greats along the rafters of Rupp Arena, the shine on former Agriculture Commissioner Richie Farmer’s legend and reputation is more than tarnished following his indictment on federal charges.

Life goes on
The leading causes of death in the United States are heart disease, cancer, chronic lower respiratory diseases and stroke. Accidents rank fifth on the list.
Those accidents, however, are deaths caused by unintentional injuries, not by a terrorist incident such as the one that happened Monday, April 15, in Boston.
The three most common types of accidents that result in death are car wrecks, falls and unintentional poisonings.
As we walk through life on a daily basis, we, of course, know an accident can happen at any time.

Kentuckians should be filled with pride
There is a lot to be proud of if you live in the Bluegrass State, especially this spring.
The University of Louisville Cardinals men’s basketball team just won a national championship and the school’s women’s team played for a championship against a Connecticut team that has been a dominant force for the past 20 years.
Although they didn’t advance as far, Kentucky’s women’s team also reached the Elite 8, finishing the season as one of the top teams in the nation.

A guest editorial by Austin Yates
CU student believes community needs alcohol sales
When it comes to the city of Campbellsville and her adoring politics, one topic seems to raise the hairs of everyone in the city. I am of course talking about the sale of alcohol.
No matter what time of year or what side of the opinion you’re on, this always tends to be the hot topic of central Kentucky politics.
Campbellsville is currently in gridlock on the subject. In a nutshell, alcohol can be sold only in restaurants and during certain hours of the day.
