GOOD EVENING AND
WELCOME TO "KENTUCKY EDITION"
FOR THIS FRIDAY, APRIL FOURTH.
(01:14):
I'M LAURA ROGERS FILLING IN FOR
RENEE SHAW.
THANK YOU FOR JOINING US.
FIRST TONIGHT, A PAINFUL
REMINDER ABOUT THE DANGERS OF
FLOODING.
POLICE IN FRANKFORT SAY
FLOODWATERS SWEPT AWAY A CHILD
THIS MORNING AS HE WAS WALKING
TO HIS BUS STOP.
THE CHILD DIED.
GOVERNOR BESHEAR POSTED THIS
ABOUT THE CHILD'S DEATH.
(01:35):
QUOTE MY HEARTBREAKS FOR THIS
FAMILY.
JOIN BRITAINY AND ME IN PRAYING
FOR THEM FOLLOWING THIS
UNIMAGINABLE LOSS.
END QUOTE.
>>> AS THE RAIN CONTINUES THE
MAIN CONCERN IS THE ACCUMULATION
OF WATER.
DURING HIS NEWS CONFERENCE
YESTERDAY, THE GOVERNOR
EMPHASIZED THE RICKS OF FLOODING
OVER THE WEEKEND AND THE NEED
(01:56):
FOR PEOPLE TO BE AWARE OF WHAT
IS HAPPENING.
>> Gov. Andy Beshear (02:00):
OKAY THIS
IS SATURDAY AGAIN.
WHAT YOU SEE IS SIGNIFICANT.
AND THEN SUNDAY IT ALL REALLY
TAPERS OFF EARLY IN THE MORNING.
BUT BY SUNDAY, ESPECIALLY, THE
RIVER BANK FLOODING WITH JUST
THE AMOUNT OF RAIN THAT WE'RE
GOING TO HAVE HAD RIVERS ARE
STILL GOING TO BE RISING MOST OF
KENTUCKY'S MAJOR RIVERS ARE
(02:20):
LOOKING AT A POTENTIAL FLOODING
EVENTS DEPENDING ON THE AMOUNT
OF RAIN WE GET NOW THROUGH THE
END OF THE WEEKEND.
JUST A COUPLE REMINDERS FROM THE
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE.
WHICH IS A CRITICAL ORGANIZATION
THAT WE DESPERATELY NEED AND
NEED TO BE STRONG, AND SHOULD
NOT BE CUTTING EMPLOYEES FROM,
(02:41):
BECAUSE OF EVENTS JUSTED LIKE
THIS.
THEY ARE OUR LIFELINE.
THEY ARE THE PEOPLE THAT LET US
KNOW AHEAD OF TIME.
THEY WORK WITH ALL OF OR TV
STATIONS TO HELP MAKE SURE THAT
EVERYBODY IS SPREADING THAT SAME
MESSAGE.
AND THEN FLOODING AT NIGHT.
A LOT OF THIS RAIN IS COMING AT
NIGHT.
YOU CAN'T SEE THE ROAD.
YOU CAN'T SEE THE LEVEL OF
FLOODING.
(03:01):
THIS IS SOMETHING THAT WE'RE
WORRIED ABOUT NOT JUST IN
KENTUCKY, BUT ALL OVER THE
COUNTRY.
>> Laura (03:08):
THE GOVERNOR SAYS THE
FEDERAL GOVERNMENT HAS ALREADY
APPROVED HIS REQUEST FOR AN
EMERGENCY DECLARATION, MEANING
FEDERAL HELP IS ON THE WAY.
STATE LEADERS ARE ALSO
ENCOURAGING EVERYONE TO AVOID
DRIVING INTO FLOODED WATERS.
THE TRANSPORTATION CABINET SAYS
MORE THAN 300 STATE AND LOCAL
ROADS ARE CLOSED BECAUSE OF
WEATHER.
(03:29):
>>> PEOPLE IN LOUISVILLE ARE
KEEPING AN EYE ON THE OHIO
RIVER.
MAYOR CRAIG GREENBERG TALKED
TODAY ABOUT HOW HIGH THE RIVER
COULD GO.
>> IT'S EXPECTED TO CREST RIGHT
NOW ON WEDNESDAY AT
35-AND-A-HALF FEET IN THE UPPER
POOL.
LET ME TRANSLATE THAT WHAT THAT
MEANS.
THE UPPER POOL IS THE AREA OF
(03:50):
THE OHIO RIVER ON THE DOWNTOWN
SIDE OF THE McAL OPINION
LOCKS.
NORMAL STAGE IS 12 FEET.
SO THIS IS GOING TO BE 23 FEET
ABOVE WHAT IS NORMAL IN THE
DOWNTOWN AND NORTHEAST OF
DOWNTOWN AREA, 23 FEET ABOVE
NORMAL FOR THE OHIO RIVER.
SO JUST THINK OF THAT.
(04:10):
AT OVER TWO STOREYS OF YOUR HOME
OF WATER TO WHERE THE OHIO RIVER
NORMALLY IS, AND THAT'S WHAT
WE'RE EXPECTING TO HAPPEN
BETWEEN NOW AND WEDNESDAY WHEN
IT CRESTS.
THAT IS GOING TO BE VERY
SIGNIFICANT FLOODING.
THAT --
THIS MAYBE ONE OF THE TOP 10
FLOODS IN RECORDED HISTORY IN
(04:30):
LOUISVILLE, IF IT REACHES THERE
AND PARTICULARLY IF IT GOES
ABOVE THAT 35-AND-A-HALF FOOT
FLOOD STAGE.
MAYOR GREENBERG SAYS
DAMAGE ASSESSMENT TEAMS ARE
LOOKING AT THE HARM CAUSED BY
THE STORMS WEDNESDAY NIGHT AND
THURSDAY MORNING IN J TOWN AND
MIDDLETOWN.
>> THE "THUNDER ONEVER
(04:50):
LOUISVILLE" IS A WEEK FROM
TOMORROW.
THE MAYOR SAYS THE CITY IS
ASSESSING WHETHER THAT CAN GO
FORWARD AND HOPE TO KNOW MORE ON
0 MONDAY.
>>> SENATE LEADERSHIP IS
CRITICIZING GOVERNOR BESHEAR'S
LATEST VETO.
THE GOVERNOR LINE-ITEM VETOED
PART OF HOUSE BILL 622 YESTERDAY
INCLUDING THE PART THAT ALLOWS
STATE DOLLARS TO PAY FOR POLICE
(05:11):
OFFICERS AT PRIVATE K-12
SCHOOLS.
IN HIS VETO MESSAGE, GOVERNOR
BESHEAR SAID THAT PART OF THE
BILL IS UNCONSTITUTIONAL.
ADDING QUOTE ALL KENTUCKY
CHILDREN DESERVE TO BE SAFE IN
THEIR SCHOOLS, BUT THE KENTUCKY
CONSTITUTION REQUIRES PUBLIC
FUNDS BE USED FOR PUBLIC
SCHOOLS.
(05:31):
MAX WISE CALLED THE DECISION
APPALLING.
QUOTE GOVERNOR BESHEAR'S
LINE-ITEM VETO SENDS A DEEPLY
DISTURBING MESSAGE TO FAMILIES
ACROSS THE COMMONWEALTH.
IF YOUR CHILD ATTENDS A PRIVATE
SCHOOL THEIR SAFETY MATTERS
LESS.
THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY WILL NOT BE
SILENT IN THE FACE OF THIS
RECKLESS DECISION.
(05:51):
>>> HOUSE BILL 622 WAS PASSED ON
THE FINAL DAY OF THE LEGISLATIVE
SESSION THAT MEANS LAWMAKERS ARE
UNABLE TO OVERRIDE THE
GOVERNOR'S VETO.
TIME FOR YOUR 0
BUSINESS BEAT.
I'M JOINED BY MARK GREEN
DIRECTOR AND VICE-PRESIDENT OF
THE LANE REPORT WHICH COVERS
BUSINESS NEWS ACROSS THE STATE.
(06:12):
AND YOU ALL HAVE BEEN TRACKING
THE LATEST IN ECONOMIC TRENDS
AND DEVELOPMENTS FOR 40 YEARS
NOW.
WE WERE TALKING ABOUT THAT LONG
HISTORY OF YOU ALL DOING THAT.
LET'S START WITH THE TREND THAT
MANY KENTUCKIANS MAY NOT BE
AWARE OF AND THAT IS METALS.
WE HAVE A FOOTHOLD IN THE STEEL
AND ALUMINUM INDUSTRIES?
>> IT IS A SURPRISE.
(06:34):
I'VE BEEN HEARING ABOUT THIS FOR
A FEW YEARS AND DECIDED TO LOOK
INTO IT AFTER THE ECONOMIC
DEVELOPMENT CABINET STARTED AN
ORGANIZATION TO SUPPORT THE
DIFFERENT METALS OPERATIONS IN
THE STATE.
AND I'D BEEN HEARING ABOUT LARGE
OPERATIONS BUT KENTUCKY IS THE
BIGGEST ALUMINUM PRODUCER IN THE
(06:55):
COUNTRY.
THERE USED TO BE 20, 25 ALUMINUM
MILLS AROUND THE COUNTRY AND NOW
THERE'S ONLY FIVE IN THE COUNTRY
AND THREE ARE IN KENTUCKY.
AND FOURTH IS ACROSS THE RIVER
IN SOUTHERN INDIANA AND THE
FIFTH ONE IS RIGHT OVER IN
MISSOURI OR ARKANSAS RIGHT NEAR
US.
WHAT MAKES KENTUCKY A
PERFECT PLACE FOR THESE ALUMINUM
(07:15):
COMPANIES?
>> WELL, THE MAIN ANSWER IS
PLACE.
WE ARE LOCATED IN THE MIDDLE OF
THE MANUFACTURING BELT.
WE'RE LOCATED CENTRALLY TO THE
U.S. EASTERN UNITED STATES
MARKET.
WHICH IS THE LARGEST, RICHEST
MOST LUCRATIVE BUSINESS MARKET
IN THE WORLD.
(07:36):
KENTUCKY ABLE TO INTERACT WITH
ANY OTHER BUSINESS WITHIN ONE
DAY'S DRIVE AND THAT IS A GREAT
BENEFIT.
AND THEN WE HAVE ALWAYS HAD
CHEAP ELECTRICITY.
THAT'S TRADITIONALLY BEEN ONE OF
OUR STRENGTHS.
WE HAVE THE CHEAPEST ELECTRICITY
EAST OF THE MISSISSIPPI OVER
NEAR THE RICH MARKETPLACE THAT
(07:58):
EVERYBODY WANTS TO BE IN.
WE'VE HAD THE METALS SECTOR HERE
FOR A WHILE.
AND THEN AS IT'S FALLEN AWAY IN
THE REST OF THE COUNTRY WE ARE
THE ONES LEFT STANDING.
AND THEN THERE ARE EFFORTS TO
REJUVENATE METALS IN THE UNITED
STATES BECAUSE SO MUCH OF IT HAS
(08:18):
SHIFTED ELSEWHERE.
THE UNITED STATES USED TO BE THE
TOP ALUMINUM PRODUCER IN THE
WORLD AND NOW WE DO 2%.
BUT KENTUCKY ALSO HAS A LOT OF
STEEL AND COPPER.
WE HAVE THE LARGEST COPPER
RECYCLING OPERATION IN THE
COUNTRY IN SHELBYVILLE.
WE HAVE THE LARGEST STAINLESS
STEEL MILL IN THE COUNTRY ON THE
(08:39):
RIVER BETWEEN LOUISVILLE AND
CINCINNATI.
AND THERE IS A NEW BILLION
DOLLAR STEEL PLANT IN
BRANDONBURG.
THERE IS A LOT OF METALS
OPERATIONS.
AND WE ARE IN THE MANUFACTURING
SUPPLY CHAIN.
WE DON'T MAKE FINAL PRODUCTS BUT
WE SUPPLY THE METAL THAT DOES
(09:02):
INTO EVERYTHING, INTO VEHICLES,
APPLIANCES, MAKEUP HAS OR
DEODORANT HAS ALUMINUM IN IT.
SO MANY THINGS HAVE COPPER,
STEEL AND ALUMINUM.
SO WE ARE IN THE VITAL MIDDLE OF
ALL OF THE SUPPLY CHAINS AND OUR
LOCATION IS OUR GREATEST ASSET.
(09:23):
I'M CURIOUS HOW THE
DOMESTIC COMPANIES ARE REACTING
TO PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP'S NEW
TARIFF POLICY?
>> THEY ARE KIND OF QUIET.
BUT THE STATEMENTS THEY HAVE PUT
OUT HAVE BEEN SUPPORTIVE.
THEY ARE VERY HAPPY WITH HIGHER
TARIFFS ON FOREIGN METALS
OPERATIONS, BECAUSE THEY WANT TO
HAVE MORE OF THE MARKET.
THEY WANT TO HAVE MORE ECONOMIC
(09:45):
INCENTIVE TO GROW.
THEY WANT TO GROW VERY MUCH.
AND IT MAKES THE OVERALL
FINANCING FOR CREATING AND
GROWING NEW OPERATIONS BETTER
FOR THEM IF THERE'S TARIFFS ON
FOREIGN METALS.
LET'S TALK ABOUT YOUR
TEAM IS TRACKING A MAJOR PROJECT
IN OLDHAM COUNTY, A MULTIBILLION
(10:07):
DOLLAR INVESTMENT THERE.
>> THESE BILLION DOLLAR
INVESTMENTS, THAT'S GETS YOUR
ATTENTION.
AND WE JUST WROTE LAST MONTH
ABOUT HOW DATA CENTER
CONSTRUCTION WAS A GROWING
TREND.
BECAUSE THE WHOLE COUNTRY NEEDS
MORE DATA CENTERS TO RUN A.I.
OPERATIONS AND CLOUD COMPUTING
(10:27):
AND SO MANY FUNCTIONS ARE
SHIFTING INTO THIS FIELD.
AND THE NEWS REPORTS FOR THE
LAST YEAR HAVE BEEN AT THE
UNITED STATES NEEDS TO DOUBLE
THE NUMBER OF DATA CENTERS THAT
IT HAS.
SO A MONTH OR TWO AGO THERE WAS
A LARGE PROJECT ANNOUNCED IN
JEFFERSON COUNTY.
THAT WAS 400 MILLION DOLLARS OR
(10:48):
400 MEGAWATTS.
THESE ARE BIG, BIG ELECTRIC
CONSUMERS.
THERE IS A LOT OF INFRASTRUCTURE
INVOLVED IN PUTTING THESE THINGS
IN.
SO RIGHT ON QUEUE AFTER WE HAD
AN ARTICLE ABOUT HOW SIGNIFICANT
DATA CENTER CONSTRUCTION IS,
THIS WEEK, ANOTHER PROJECT WAS
ANNOUNCED IN OLDHAM COUNTY THAT
WILL BE $6 BILLION.
(11:10):
EIGHT BUILDINGS AND IT WOULD
TAKE YEARS TO GET THERE.
BUT THAT WOULD BE ONE OF THE
BIGGEST ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT
PROJECTS IN KENTUCKY HISTORY.
TALKING ABOUT MORE
THAN ONE AND THAT HISTORICAL
ANNOUNCEMENT POTENTIALLY.
>> YES.
THERE IS ROOM FOR
GROWTH IN THE SECTOR OF THE
ECONOMY.
>> THERE ARE SOME AROUND THE
STATE, BUT THERE'S NEW STATE
(11:31):
POLICY THAT PROVIDINGS ECONOMIC
INCENTIVES FOR DATA CENTERS
WHICH BURN THROUGH A LOT OF
EQUIPMENT.
SO THE STATE ENACTED TAX BREAKS
FOR SALES TAX FOR REPLACING
EQUIPMENT.
SO THE INDUSTRY IS SPHONDING AND
COMING IN HERE.
ANOTHER ARTICLE THAT
YOU PUBLISHED TALKS ABOUT THE
RESTAURANT BUSINESS.
(11:51):
WE ALL LOVE A GOOD MEAL AND I
ESPECIALLY LOVE IT WHEN SOMEONE
ELSE PREPARES IT, I LIKE TO EAT
OUT.
AND WE HAVE AMAZING RESTAURANTS
IN KENTUCKY.
BUT LET'S TALK ABOUT THIS
ACCOUNTING FIRM THAT CATERS
SPECIFICALLY TO RESTAURANTS.
THERE ARE CHALLENGES IN MANAGING
THE CASH FLOW.
>> THAT WAS ONE INTERESTING.
LOUISVILLE AND LEXINGTON HAVE
(12:12):
GREAT RESTAURANT SCENES.
AND THE WHOLE STATE REALLY HAS A
GOOD FOOD SECTOR.
FOOD AND BEVERAGE IS ONE OF OUR
STRONGEST BUSINESS SECTORS.
BUT BOB PATTERSON IN LOUISVILLE
FOR 25 YEARS HE WAS A PARTNER IN
A COFFEE SUPPLY COMPANY AND ALL
CLIENTS WERE RESTAURANTS AND HE
KEPT SEEING THEY WERE HAVING
(12:34):
FINANCIAL ISSUES.
HE SAID THEY WOULD INTERACT WITH
HIM AND SAY GOSH BY BOOKKEEPER
IS STEALING FROM ME.
OR I'M HAVING A TERRIBLE CASH
FLOW CRUNCH AND RESTAURANT
OPERATORS TEND TO FOCUS ON THE
FOOD AND THEIR CUSTOMER SERVICE
AND OPERATIONS AND NOT ON
RUNNING THE FINANCES.
SO HE DECIDED THAT THERE WAS AN
(12:55):
OPENING FOR HIM TO DO THE
FINANCES FOR THEM.
HE WAS AN ACCOUNTANT.
HE STARTED AS A ONE-MAN
OPERATION ABOUT 12 YEARS AGO,
PATTERSON AND COMPANY TO WORK
SPECIFICALLY WITH THE
RESTAURANTS AND DO THEIR
BOOKKEEPING THEIR PAYROLL THEIR
TAXES, THEIR FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS AND HOW TO AVOID THE
(13:15):
CASH CRUNCH AFTER THE HOLIDAYS
EVERY YEAR.
AND NOW HE'S GOT 22 PEOPLE.
HE'S GOT 200 RESTAURANT CLIENTS
ALL OVER KENTUCKY, TENNESSEE,
ALABAMA, MISSOURI.
AND HE'S DOING VERY WELL.
JUST UNIQUE AND IT'S
INTERESTING TO SEE THE UNIQUE
CHALLENGES.
>> RESTAURANTS ARE ONE OF THE
(13:36):
CLASSIC SMALL BUSINESSES THAT
PEOPLE START AND GO INTO AND
HE'S HELPING THEM BE SUCCESSFUL
AT IT.
MARK GREEN HERE ON
BEHALF OF THE LANE REPORT WE
APPRECIATE YOUR TIME TODAY.
THANK YOU SO MUCH.
>> THANK YOU FOR HAVING ME.
[♪♪]
A NEW TOOL HAS SHOWN
PROMISING RESULTS IN FIGHTING
(13:57):
ADDICTION AT THE SCOTT COUNTY
DETENTION CENTER.
THE NET DEVICE IS AN ELECTRONIC
METHOD OF EASING WITHDRAWALS FOR
PEOPLE WITH SUBSTANCE USE
PROBLEMS.
FOR SOME OF THE 22 INMATES USED
THE DEVICE, DRUG CRAVINGS ARE A
THING OF THE PAST.
>> BEEN ON HEROIN AND EVERYTHING
ELSE FOR 45 YEARS, PRETTY MUCH
(14:19):
STRAIGHT THROUGH.
AND SINCE I'VE BEEN ON IT I HAVE
NOT THOUGHT ABOUT IT.
I DON'T WAKE UP WITH THE
CRAVINGS DON'T HAVE THE DREAMS.
I NEVER WOKE UP SINCE I WAS 15
WITHOUT SOME KIND OF CRAVING FOR
PLANNING FOR THE DAY AND GETTING
HIGH.
BUT I DON'T HAVE THOSE ANYMORE.
>> IT HAS A SMALL CONTROL MODULE
WHICH IS THE SIZE OF AN iPHONE
(14:40):
OR A WALKMAN.
IT HAS A COUPLE OF ELECTRODES
THAT COME OFF OF THAT.
THE TWO ELECTRODES ATTACH BEHIND
THE EARS ON THE INDIVIDUAL THAT
WANTS TO UTILIZE IT TO MINIMIZE
THE EFFECTS OF THE WITHDRAWALS
THEY CAN SELF ADMINISTER USING
THIS NET DEVICE.
LOW LEVELS OF ELECTRICAL
STIMULATION.
(15:00):
IT HAS BEEN SHOWN FOR HALF THE
INDIVIDUALS THAT USE IT THAT
THEY LOSE THE CRAVINGS FOR THE
SUBSTANCE THAT THEY WERE
ADDICTED TO.
>> THEY PUT IT ON THE BACK OF
YOUR EARS ON BOTH SIDES AND LIKE
SHOCK BUT LIKE A VIBRATION NOT A
SHOCK.
BUT YOU STAY ON IT FOR HOWEVER I
(15:21):
THINK SEVEN TO 10 DAYS.
IT'S BASED ON YOU.
LIKE HOW YOU ARE IN YOUR
WITHDRAWAL PROCESS.
>> I WENT THROUGH ZERO
WITHDRAWAL SYMPTOMS WHICH IS
RARE.
TWO GRAM A DAY HABIT WHEN I CAME
IN AND NOTHING.
I WAS EATING THE NEXT DAY.
NO CRAMPS, NO TREMORS, NOTHING.
(15:41):
>> THAT MAKES THAT INDIVIDUAL
EASIER TO CARE FOR AND MAINTAIN
CUSTODY OF WHILE THEY ARE GOING
THROUGH THE WITHDRAWAL N THAT
SENSE IT MAKES IT A LITTLE BIT
EASIER FOR THE STAFF AND THE
INDIVIDUAL TAKES LESS RESOURCES.
>> ON THE NET DEVICE FOR EIGHT
DAYS THE FIRST FOUR DAYS WERE
(16:02):
FOR AMPHETAMINES AND OPIOIDS AND
THE SECOND FOUR DAYS WAS
STRICTLY FOR COCAINE AND I'VE
BEEN OFF FOR 60 DAYS NOW?
AND 60 DAYS CLEAN IN MY LIFE AND
I STILL DON'T FEEL LIKE I DO
NOW.
I'VE BEEN 15 YEARS CLEAN AND I
DON'T FEEL LIKE THAT NOW.
>> I WAS COMING OFF OF METHADONE
(16:24):
STILL HAVE WITHDRAWAL SYMPTOMS.
WASN'T LIKE AS BAD.
LIKE, AND I THINK ABOUT IT AND
HAVE THAT NET DEVICE THING I
PROBABLY WOULD BE REALLY SICK.
>> IT WEIGHED ON MY MIND BECAUSE
AT THE TIME WHEN WE'RE COMING
OFF OF METH THERE IS A LOT OF
PSYCHOSIS WITH IT.
SO FOR IT TOOK CARE OF THE URGES
(16:49):
AND AFTER THAT I WAS GOING
THROUGH AS FAR AS THE DEPRESSION
AND EVERYTHING.
>> AFTER THE PERSON HAS
COMPLETED THE NET DEVICE
PROGRAM, WE DO A POST TREATMENT
ASSESSMENT OF THE INDIVIDUAL.
AND PART OF THAT POST TREATMENT
ASSESSMENT IS, YES, TO ASK THEM
WHAT THEIR EXPERIENCE WAS LIKE
ON THE NET DEVICE.
(17:09):
BUT ALSO TO OFFER THEM THE
OPPORTUNITY OF REHAB.
WE WANT TO FOLLOW-UP WITH THE
COUNSELING AT REHAB TO ADDRESS
THE ISSUES MAYBE WHY THEY
STARTED DRUG USE TO BEGIN WITH.
OFFER THE PEER SUPPORT AND OFFER
THE WORK THE JOB RELATED SUPPORT
(17:29):
THAT THEY CAN GET AT THE REHAB
FACILITY.
IF WE CAN DO THE NET DEAVYINGS
AND THE REHAB IT'S THE ONE-TWO
PUNCH AND THE IDEAL WAY WE CAN
ATTACK THIS ISSUE.
WE ALL AS COMMUNITY MEMBERS HAVE
A VESTED INTEREST IN TRYING TO
POSITIVELY IMPACT THESE
INDIVIDUALS WHILE WE HAVE THEM.
AND THAT'S WHAT WE TRY TO DO
(17:50):
HERE AT THE SCOTT COUNTY
DETENTION CENTER.
WE WANT TO POSITIVELY IMPACT
THEM SO WHEN THEY LEAVE THEY
HAVE THE BEST OPPORTUNITY TO GET
OUT AND BE ON THE DIFFERENT
PATH, A DIFFERENT PATH THAN WHAT
THEY WERE ON WHEN THEY GOT
ARRESTED AND BROUGHT TO JAIL.
PROMISING RESULTS THE
NET DEVICE IS BEING USED AT THE
ISAIAH HOUSE REHABILITATION
(18:12):
CENTER AND OTHER JAILS IN THE
COMMONWEALTH.
>>> POLYPHARMACY IS DEFINED AS
TAKING FIVE OR MORE MEDICATIONS
REGULARLY, INCLUDING
PRESCRIPTIONS AND
OVER-THE-COUNTER.
THIS IS MORE COMMON AMONGST OUR
OLDER GENERATIONS, BUT WHO IS
KEEPING TRACK OF ALL OF THESE
MEDICATIONS AND HOW CAN YOU HELP
YOUR LOVED ONES FROM ADVERSE
(18:34):
DRUG INTERACTIONS AND SIDE
EFFECTS.
>> ALL MEDICATIONS HAVE SIDE
EFFECTS THAT CAUSES ANOTHER
SYMPTOM AND THEN THAT SYMPTOM
GETS RECOGNIZED INCORRECTLY AS A
NEW CONDITION.
AND IT GETS TREATED WITH ANOTHER
MEDICATION THEN WE HAVE THAT
PRESCRIBING CASCADE.
WHERE YOU GET A MEDICINE SIDE
(18:54):
EFFECT AND YOU TREAT THAT WITH A
MEDICINE WITH A SIDE EFFECT.
>> A 2019 REPORT FOUND 84% OF
ADULTS IN THE UNITED STATES WERE
TAKING ONE MEDICATION PER DAY
AND 35% WERE TAKING FIVE OR
MORE.
JOIN US IN OUR PANEL OF EXPERTS
AS WE DISCUSS THE PROBLEMS OF
WHAT IS CALLED POLYPHARMACY AND
(19:15):
HOW WE CAN AVOID COMPLICATIONS.
GOOD INFORMATION WATCH
THE FULL PROGRAM MONDAY NIGHT AT
8 EASTERN, 7 CENTRAL RIGHT HERE
ON KET.
[♪♪]
THE MIDDLESBORO
INDEPENDENT SCHOOL DISTRICT IS
(19:35):
ENCOURAGING READING IN A
DIFFERENT WAY.
A NEW LITERACY PROJECT JACKET
STORY TIME PHONE BOOK GIVES
CHILDREN THE OPPORTUNITY TO HEAR
A SORRY READ TO THEM OVER THE
PHONE.
WITH HIGH SCHOOL AND MIDDLE
SCHOOL STUDENTS LENDING THEIR
VOICE TALENT.
>> ONE OF MY TEAM MEMBERS
RECALLED YEARS AGO WHEN SHE WAS
A LITTLE GIRL, THE LOCAL BANK
(19:56):
HERE HAD A PROGRAM WHERE THEY
WOULD ALLOW CALLERS TO CALL INTO
THE BANK AND THEY WOULD HEAR A
STORY FROM THE BANK EMPLOYEES
THERE.
AND I THOUGHT THAT WAS A GREAT
IDEA.
>> SECOND STORY TIME PHONE BOOK
IS A PHONE LINE THAT WE HAVE
WHERE STUDENTS AND FAMILIES AND
MEMBERS OF THE COMMUNITY CAN
CALL AND HEAR A STORY READ.
(20:17):
STORIES ARE BEING READ BY OUR
STUDENTS.
MAINLY HIGH SCHOOL, BUT I DO
RECORD MIDDLE SCHOOL STUDENTS AS
WELL.
>> WELCOME TO THE PHONE BOOK.
>> I'VE READ A COUPLE OF DR.
SEUSS BOOKS A COUPLE OF BEDTIME
STORIES.
BUT MY FAVORITE WOULD BE IF YOU
EVER WANT TO BRING A CROCODILE
TO SCHOOL DON'T.
IT WAS FUNNY AND HAD A LOT OF
(20:38):
RHETORICAL DEVICES.
I'M AN ENGLISH NERD SO THAT IS
HOW I PICKED MINE AND WHAT DO I
THINK IS THE MOST INTERESTING
FROM A LITERARY STANDPOINT.
>> IT TAKES DAYINGS UPON DAYS OF
TRAINING MY VOICES.
AND ALSO MAKES ME FEEL REALLY
HONORED THAT PEOPLE LOVE HEARING
MY VOICES AND READING MY BOOK.
(21:00):
AND MAKES ME FEEL WARM INSIDE
LIKE PEOPLE ACTUALLY LOVE MY
READING.
>> IT'S ALWAYS TWO PEOPLE PER
BOOK FOR THE MOST PART TO
ANIMATE THE KIRKS AND GO BACK
AND FORTH TO CREATE THAT
DIALOGUE LIKE AN ACTUAL STORY.
AND THEY WILL PRACTICE, PROBABLY
TWO OR THREE PRACTICE RUNS AND
THEN THE RED LIGHT COMES ON AND
(21:21):
THEY RECORD AND MAKE A STORY.
>> NO, NO.
>> JOE AND VIT TA.
>> JOE AND VIT TA WHO.
>> JOE INVITED YOU TO THE PARTY.
>> IT'S FUN OVERALL.
>> I AM A PARENT WHO VALUES
READING TO YOUR CHILD.
I'M BUSY I COACH AND TEACH AND
LOTS OF TIME I'M NOT ABLE TO
(21:42):
READ A BOOK TO MY KID.
KNOWING THAT IS AN OPTION TO
CALL IN ESPECIALLY FOR KIDS THAT
DON'T HAVE A PARENT THAT CAN
READ TO THEM IT GIVES THEM AN
OPTION TO EXPERIENCE THAT AS
WELL.
>> ONE OF THE SUPPORT STRUCTURES
WE HAVE IN PLACE IS THROUGH A
PROGRAM CALLED INNOVATIVE
APPROACHES TO LITERACY.
WHAT WE KNOW IS THAT RURAL KIDS
(22:05):
TYPICALLY, ARE THE ENVIRONMENTS
IN WHICH THEY LIVE IN AND GROW
UP IN ARE NOT PRINT RICH.
SO WE WANT KIDS WE HAVE CERTAIN
METRICS THAT WE FOLLOW ONE IS
KINDERGARTEN READINESS.
IS A CHILD READY TO BE
SUCCESSFUL IN SCHOOL WHEN THEY
COME TO KINDERGARTEN?
WELL THAT MEANS YOU HAVE TO
INTERVENE EARLY AND SUPPORT
EARLY.
(22:26):
THIS PARTICULAR PROGRAM IS ALL
ABOUT BUILDING A RICH, RICH
CULTURE OF LITERACY.
NOT JUST IN THE SCHOOLS, BUT
SPECIFICALLY PARTNERING WITH
FAMILIES TO DO THAT.
>> FROM RESEARCH WE KNOW THE
IMPORTANCE OF ORAL LANGUAGE AS A
BRIDGE TO READING AND WRITING
SKILLS.
SO STUDENTS WHO ARE READ TO,
STUDENTS WHO LISTEN TO ORAL
(22:46):
STORIES AT HOME, THAT HELPS THEM
DEVELOP THEIR OWN ORAL LANGUAGE
ABILITIES.
IT'S ALL ABOUT THE INFLICTION
THAT YOU PUT INTO THE BOOK YOU
PAUSE WITH A COMA OR SOMETHING
HAPPENS YOU CRESCENDO AND
DECRESCENDO.
AND I THINK IT'S BETTER BECAUSE
IT REALLY INCREASES A CHILD'S
(23:09):
ABILITY TO LEARN AUDITORYLY.
YOU LEARN IN HIGH SCHOOL YOU
HAVE TO BE ABLE TO RECEIVE AND
GET THAT INFORMATION VERBALLY.
SO I THINK IT HELPS CHILDREN TO
BE ABLE TO DO THAT.
THEY ARE NOT FOCUSING JUST ON
THE PICTURES, BUT THEY ARE
LISTENING TO THE WORDS TO TELL
THEM WHAT THE STORY IS.
(23:30):
>> FOR THE OLDER KIDS THE
READERS THEY ARE ALSO IMPROVING
READING AND LITERACY SKILLS BY
PRACTICING.
>> THE KIDS PART OF THE PROGRAM
LOVE IT.
THEY ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT.
IT IS A LOT OF FUN FOR THEM TO
SIT DOWN WITH FRIENDS HERE AT
SCHOOL AND THEY GET TO STEP OUT
OF THEIR NORMAL HIGH SCHOOL-AGED
TYPICAL LIFE AND THEY GET TO
(23:52):
READ A CHILDREN'S STORY AND
ANIMATE THEIR VOICE AND GET TO
STEP AWAY FROM WHERE THEY FEEL
LIKE THEY HAVE TO BE TO NOW
REALLY CONNECT MORE WITH THE
YOUNGER-AGED KIDS.
>> GOOD-BYE EVERYBODY.
SEE YOU ON THE NEXT EPISODE.
NICE SPONGE BOB.
THE FIRST MONTH OF THE PROGRAM
THERE WERE NEARLY 400 CALLERS
(24:12):
NOW THE PROGRAM RECEIVES ABOUT
100 CALLERS A MONTH.

LITERACY.

EDITION" IS MADE POSSIBLE IN
PART BY THE KET MILLENNIUM FUND.
[♪♪]
GOOD EVENING AND
WELCOME TO "KENTUCKY EDITION"
FOR THIS FRIDAY, APRIL FOURTH.
(01:14):
I'M LAURA ROGERS FILLING IN FOR
RENEE SHAW.
THANK YOU FOR JOINING US.
FIRST TONIGHT, A PAINFUL
REMINDER ABOUT THE DANGERS OF
FLOODING.
POLICE IN FRANKFORT SAY
FLOODWATERS SWEPT AWAY A CHILD
THIS MORNING AS HE WAS WALKING
TO HIS BUS STOP.
THE CHILD DIED.
GOVERNOR BESHEAR POSTED THIS
ABOUT THE CHILD'S DEATH.
(01:35):
QUOTE MY HEARTBREAKS FOR THIS
FAMILY.
JOIN BRITAINY AND ME IN PRAYING
FOR THEM FOLLOWING THIS
UNIMAGINABLE LOSS.
END QUOTE.
>>> AS THE RAIN CONTINUES THE
MAIN CONCERN IS THE ACCUMULATION
OF WATER.
DURING HIS NEWS CONFERENCE
YESTERDAY, THE GOVERNOR
EMPHASIZED THE RICKS OF FLOODING
OVER THE WEEKEND AND THE NEED
(01:56):
FOR PEOPLE TO BE AWARE OF WHAT
IS HAPPENING.
>> Gov. Andy Beshear (02:00):
OKAY THIS
IS SATURDAY AGAIN.
WHAT YOU SEE IS SIGNIFICANT.
AND THEN SUNDAY IT ALL REALLY
TAPERS OFF EARLY IN THE MORNING.
BUT BY SUNDAY, ESPECIALLY, THE
RIVER BANK FLOODING WITH JUST
THE AMOUNT OF RAIN THAT WE'RE
GOING TO HAVE HAD RIVERS ARE
STILL GOING TO BE RISING MOST OF
KENTUCKY'S MAJOR RIVERS ARE
(02:20):
LOOKING AT A POTENTIAL FLOODING
EVENTS DEPENDING ON THE AMOUNT
OF RAIN WE GET NOW THROUGH THE
END OF THE WEEKEND.
JUST A COUPLE REMINDERS FROM THE
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE.
WHICH IS A CRITICAL ORGANIZATION
THAT WE DESPERATELY NEED AND
NEED TO BE STRONG, AND SHOULD
NOT BE CUTTING EMPLOYEES FROM,
(02:41):
BECAUSE OF EVENTS JUSTED LIKE
THIS.
THEY ARE OUR LIFELINE.
THEY ARE THE PEOPLE THAT LET US
KNOW AHEAD OF TIME.
THEY WORK WITH ALL OF OR TV
STATIONS TO HELP MAKE SURE THAT
EVERYBODY IS SPREADING THAT SAME
MESSAGE.
AND THEN FLOODING AT NIGHT.
A LOT OF THIS RAIN IS COMING AT
NIGHT.
YOU CAN'T SEE THE ROAD.
YOU CAN'T SEE THE LEVEL OF
FLOODING.
(03:01):
THIS IS SOMETHING THAT WE'RE
WORRIED ABOUT NOT JUST IN
KENTUCKY, BUT ALL OVER THE
COUNTRY.
>> Laura (03:08):
THE GOVERNOR SAYS THE
FEDERAL GOVERNMENT HAS ALREADY
APPROVED HIS REQUEST FOR AN
EMERGENCY DECLARATION, MEANING
FEDERAL HELP IS ON THE WAY.
STATE LEADERS ARE ALSO
ENCOURAGING EVERYONE TO AVOID
DRIVING INTO FLOODED WATERS.
THE TRANSPORTATION CABINET SAYS
MORE THAN 300 STATE AND LOCAL
ROADS ARE CLOSED BECAUSE OF
WEATHER.
(03:29):
>>> PEOPLE IN LOUISVILLE ARE
KEEPING AN EYE ON THE OHIO
RIVER.
MAYOR CRAIG GREENBERG TALKED
TODAY ABOUT HOW HIGH THE RIVER
COULD GO.
>> IT'S EXPECTED TO CREST RIGHT
NOW ON WEDNESDAY AT
35-AND-A-HALF FEET IN THE UPPER
POOL.
LET ME TRANSLATE THAT WHAT THAT
MEANS.
THE UPPER POOL IS THE AREA OF
(03:50):
THE OHIO RIVER ON THE DOWNTOWN
SIDE OF THE McAL OPINION
LOCKS.
NORMAL STAGE IS 12 FEET.
SO THIS IS GOING TO BE 23 FEET
ABOVE WHAT IS NORMAL IN THE
DOWNTOWN AND NORTHEAST OF
DOWNTOWN AREA, 23 FEET ABOVE
NORMAL FOR THE OHIO RIVER.
SO JUST THINK OF THAT.
(04:10):
AT OVER TWO STOREYS OF YOUR HOME
OF WATER TO WHERE THE OHIO RIVER
NORMALLY IS, AND THAT'S WHAT
WE'RE EXPECTING TO HAPPEN
BETWEEN NOW AND WEDNESDAY WHEN
IT CRESTS.
THAT IS GOING TO BE VERY
SIGNIFICANT FLOODING.
THAT --
THIS MAYBE ONE OF THE TOP 10
FLOODS IN RECORDED HISTORY IN
(04:30):
LOUISVILLE, IF IT REACHES THERE
AND PARTICULARLY IF IT GOES
ABOVE THAT 35-AND-A-HALF FOOT
FLOOD STAGE.
MAYOR GREENBERG SAYS
DAMAGE ASSESSMENT TEAMS ARE
LOOKING AT THE HARM CAUSED BY
THE STORMS WEDNESDAY NIGHT AND
THURSDAY MORNING IN J TOWN AND
MIDDLETOWN.
>> THE "THUNDER ONEVER
(04:50):
LOUISVILLE" IS A WEEK FROM
TOMORROW.
THE MAYOR SAYS THE CITY IS
ASSESSING WHETHER THAT CAN GO
FORWARD AND HOPE TO KNOW MORE ON
0 MONDAY.
>>> SENATE LEADERSHIP IS
CRITICIZING GOVERNOR BESHEAR'S
LATEST VETO.
THE GOVERNOR LINE-ITEM VETOED
PART OF HOUSE BILL 622 YESTERDAY
INCLUDING THE PART THAT ALLOWS
STATE DOLLARS TO PAY FOR POLICE
(05:11):
OFFICERS AT PRIVATE K-12
SCHOOLS.
IN HIS VETO MESSAGE, GOVERNOR
BESHEAR SAID THAT PART OF THE
BILL IS UNCONSTITUTIONAL.
ADDING QUOTE ALL KENTUCKY
CHILDREN DESERVE TO BE SAFE IN
THEIR SCHOOLS, BUT THE KENTUCKY
CONSTITUTION REQUIRES PUBLIC
FUNDS BE USED FOR PUBLIC
SCHOOLS.
(05:31):
MAX WISE CALLED THE DECISION
APPALLING.
QUOTE GOVERNOR BESHEAR'S
LINE-ITEM VETO SENDS A DEEPLY
DISTURBING MESSAGE TO FAMILIES
ACROSS THE COMMONWEALTH.
IF YOUR CHILD ATTENDS A PRIVATE
SCHOOL THEIR SAFETY MATTERS
LESS.
THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY WILL NOT BE
SILENT IN THE FACE OF THIS
RECKLESS DECISION.
(05:51):
>>> HOUSE BILL 622 WAS PASSED ON
THE FINAL DAY OF THE LEGISLATIVE
SESSION THAT MEANS LAWMAKERS ARE
UNABLE TO OVERRIDE THE
GOVERNOR'S VETO.
TIME FOR YOUR 0
BUSINESS BEAT.
I'M JOINED BY MARK GREEN
DIRECTOR AND VICE-PRESIDENT OF
THE LANE REPORT WHICH COVERS
BUSINESS NEWS ACROSS THE STATE.
(06:12):
AND YOU ALL HAVE BEEN TRACKING
THE LATEST IN ECONOMIC TRENDS
AND DEVELOPMENTS FOR 40 YEARS
NOW.
WE WERE TALKING ABOUT THAT LONG
HISTORY OF YOU ALL DOING THAT.
LET'S START WITH THE TREND THAT
MANY KENTUCKIANS MAY NOT BE
AWARE OF AND THAT IS METALS.
WE HAVE A FOOTHOLD IN THE STEEL
AND ALUMINUM INDUSTRIES?
>> IT IS A SURPRISE.
(06:34):
I'VE BEEN HEARING ABOUT THIS FOR
A FEW YEARS AND DECIDED TO LOOK
INTO IT AFTER THE ECONOMIC
DEVELOPMENT CABINET STARTED AN
ORGANIZATION TO SUPPORT THE
DIFFERENT METALS OPERATIONS IN
THE STATE.
AND I'D BEEN HEARING ABOUT LARGE
OPERATIONS BUT KENTUCKY IS THE
BIGGEST ALUMINUM PRODUCER IN THE
(06:55):
COUNTRY.
THERE USED TO BE 20, 25 ALUMINUM
MILLS AROUND THE COUNTRY AND NOW
THERE'S ONLY FIVE IN THE COUNTRY
AND THREE ARE IN KENTUCKY.
AND FOURTH IS ACROSS THE RIVER
IN SOUTHERN INDIANA AND THE
FIFTH ONE IS RIGHT OVER IN
MISSOURI OR ARKANSAS RIGHT NEAR
US.
WHAT MAKES KENTUCKY A
PERFECT PLACE FOR THESE ALUMINUM
(07:15):
COMPANIES?
>> WELL, THE MAIN ANSWER IS
PLACE.
WE ARE LOCATED IN THE MIDDLE OF
THE MANUFACTURING BELT.
WE'RE LOCATED CENTRALLY TO THE
U.S. EASTERN UNITED STATES
MARKET.
WHICH IS THE LARGEST, RICHEST
MOST LUCRATIVE BUSINESS MARKET
IN THE WORLD.
(07:36):
KENTUCKY ABLE TO INTERACT WITH
ANY OTHER BUSINESS WITHIN ONE
DAY'S DRIVE AND THAT IS A GREAT
BENEFIT.
AND THEN WE HAVE ALWAYS HAD
CHEAP ELECTRICITY.
THAT'S TRADITIONALLY BEEN ONE OF
OUR STRENGTHS.
WE HAVE THE CHEAPEST ELECTRICITY
EAST OF THE MISSISSIPPI OVER
NEAR THE RICH MARKETPLACE THAT
(07:58):
EVERYBODY WANTS TO BE IN.
WE'VE HAD THE METALS SECTOR HERE
FOR A WHILE.
AND THEN AS IT'S FALLEN AWAY IN
THE REST OF THE COUNTRY WE ARE
THE ONES LEFT STANDING.
AND THEN THERE ARE EFFORTS TO
REJUVENATE METALS IN THE UNITED
STATES BECAUSE SO MUCH OF IT HAS
(08:18):
SHIFTED ELSEWHERE.
THE UNITED STATES USED TO BE THE
TOP ALUMINUM PRODUCER IN THE
WORLD AND NOW WE DO 2%.
BUT KENTUCKY ALSO HAS A LOT OF
STEEL AND COPPER.
WE HAVE THE LARGEST COPPER
RECYCLING OPERATION IN THE
COUNTRY IN SHELBYVILLE.
WE HAVE THE LARGEST STAINLESS
STEEL MILL IN THE COUNTRY ON THE
(08:39):
RIVER BETWEEN LOUISVILLE AND
CINCINNATI.
AND THERE IS A NEW BILLION
DOLLAR STEEL PLANT IN
BRANDONBURG.
THERE IS A LOT OF METALS
OPERATIONS.
AND WE ARE IN THE MANUFACTURING
SUPPLY CHAIN.
WE DON'T MAKE FINAL PRODUCTS BUT
WE SUPPLY THE METAL THAT DOES
(09:02):
INTO EVERYTHING, INTO VEHICLES,
APPLIANCES, MAKEUP HAS OR
DEODORANT HAS ALUMINUM IN IT.
SO MANY THINGS HAVE COPPER,
STEEL AND ALUMINUM.
SO WE ARE IN THE VITAL MIDDLE OF
ALL OF THE SUPPLY CHAINS AND OUR
LOCATION IS OUR GREATEST ASSET.
(09:23):
I'M CURIOUS HOW THE
DOMESTIC COMPANIES ARE REACTING
TO PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP'S NEW
TARIFF POLICY?
>> THEY ARE KIND OF QUIET.
BUT THE STATEMENTS THEY HAVE PUT
OUT HAVE BEEN SUPPORTIVE.
THEY ARE VERY HAPPY WITH HIGHER
TARIFFS ON FOREIGN METALS
OPERATIONS, BECAUSE THEY WANT TO
HAVE MORE OF THE MARKET.
THEY WANT TO HAVE MORE ECONOMIC
(09:45):
INCENTIVE TO GROW.
THEY WANT TO GROW VERY MUCH.
AND IT MAKES THE OVERALL
FINANCING FOR CREATING AND
GROWING NEW OPERATIONS BETTER
FOR THEM IF THERE'S TARIFFS ON
FOREIGN METALS.
LET'S TALK ABOUT YOUR
TEAM IS TRACKING A MAJOR PROJECT
IN OLDHAM COUNTY, A MULTIBILLION
(10:07):
DOLLAR INVESTMENT THERE.
>> THESE BILLION DOLLAR
INVESTMENTS, THAT'S GETS YOUR
ATTENTION.
AND WE JUST WROTE LAST MONTH
ABOUT HOW DATA CENTER
CONSTRUCTION WAS A GROWING
TREND.
BECAUSE THE WHOLE COUNTRY NEEDS
MORE DATA CENTERS TO RUN A.I.
OPERATIONS AND CLOUD COMPUTING
(10:27):
AND SO MANY FUNCTIONS ARE
SHIFTING INTO THIS FIELD.
AND THE NEWS REPORTS FOR THE
LAST YEAR HAVE BEEN AT THE
UNITED STATES NEEDS TO DOUBLE
THE NUMBER OF DATA CENTERS THAT
IT HAS.
SO A MONTH OR TWO AGO THERE WAS
A LARGE PROJECT ANNOUNCED IN
JEFFERSON COUNTY.
THAT WAS 400 MILLION DOLLARS OR
(10:48):
400 MEGAWATTS.
THESE ARE BIG, BIG ELECTRIC
CONSUMERS.
THERE IS A LOT OF INFRASTRUCTURE
INVOLVED IN PUTTING THESE THINGS
IN.
SO RIGHT ON QUEUE AFTER WE HAD
AN ARTICLE ABOUT HOW SIGNIFICANT
DATA CENTER CONSTRUCTION IS,
THIS WEEK, ANOTHER PROJECT WAS
ANNOUNCED IN OLDHAM COUNTY THAT
WILL BE $6 BILLION.
(11:10):
EIGHT BUILDINGS AND IT WOULD
TAKE YEARS TO GET THERE.
BUT THAT WOULD BE ONE OF THE
BIGGEST ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT
PROJECTS IN KENTUCKY HISTORY.
TALKING ABOUT MORE
THAN ONE AND THAT HISTORICAL
ANNOUNCEMENT POTENTIALLY.
>> YES.
THERE IS ROOM FOR
GROWTH IN THE SECTOR OF THE
ECONOMY.
>> THERE ARE SOME AROUND THE
STATE, BUT THERE'S NEW STATE
(11:31):
POLICY THAT PROVIDINGS ECONOMIC
INCENTIVES FOR DATA CENTERS
WHICH BURN THROUGH A LOT OF
EQUIPMENT.
SO THE STATE ENACTED TAX BREAKS
FOR SALES TAX FOR REPLACING
EQUIPMENT.
SO THE INDUSTRY IS SPHONDING AND
COMING IN HERE.
ANOTHER ARTICLE THAT
YOU PUBLISHED TALKS ABOUT THE
RESTAURANT BUSINESS.
(11:51):
WE ALL LOVE A GOOD MEAL AND I
ESPECIALLY LOVE IT WHEN SOMEONE
ELSE PREPARES IT, I LIKE TO EAT
OUT.
AND WE HAVE AMAZING RESTAURANTS
IN KENTUCKY.
BUT LET'S TALK ABOUT THIS
ACCOUNTING FIRM THAT CATERS
SPECIFICALLY TO RESTAURANTS.
THERE ARE CHALLENGES IN MANAGING
THE CASH FLOW.
>> THAT WAS ONE INTERESTING.
LOUISVILLE AND LEXINGTON HAVE
(12:12):
GREAT RESTAURANT SCENES.
AND THE WHOLE STATE REALLY HAS A
GOOD FOOD SECTOR.
FOOD AND BEVERAGE IS ONE OF OUR
STRONGEST BUSINESS SECTORS.
BUT BOB PATTERSON IN LOUISVILLE
FOR 25 YEARS HE WAS A PARTNER IN
A COFFEE SUPPLY COMPANY AND ALL
CLIENTS WERE RESTAURANTS AND HE
KEPT SEEING THEY WERE HAVING
(12:34):
FINANCIAL ISSUES.
HE SAID THEY WOULD INTERACT WITH
HIM AND SAY GOSH BY BOOKKEEPER
IS STEALING FROM ME.
OR I'M HAVING A TERRIBLE CASH
FLOW CRUNCH AND RESTAURANT
OPERATORS TEND TO FOCUS ON THE
FOOD AND THEIR CUSTOMER SERVICE
AND OPERATIONS AND NOT ON
RUNNING THE FINANCES.
SO HE DECIDED THAT THERE WAS AN
(12:55):
OPENING FOR HIM TO DO THE
FINANCES FOR THEM.
HE WAS AN ACCOUNTANT.
HE STARTED AS A ONE-MAN
OPERATION ABOUT 12 YEARS AGO,
PATTERSON AND COMPANY TO WORK
SPECIFICALLY WITH THE
RESTAURANTS AND DO THEIR
BOOKKEEPING THEIR PAYROLL THEIR
TAXES, THEIR FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS AND HOW TO AVOID THE
(13:15):
CASH CRUNCH AFTER THE HOLIDAYS
EVERY YEAR.
AND NOW HE'S GOT 22 PEOPLE.
HE'S GOT 200 RESTAURANT CLIENTS
ALL OVER KENTUCKY, TENNESSEE,
ALABAMA, MISSOURI.
AND HE'S DOING VERY WELL.
JUST UNIQUE AND IT'S
INTERESTING TO SEE THE UNIQUE
CHALLENGES.
>> RESTAURANTS ARE ONE OF THE
(13:36):
CLASSIC SMALL BUSINESSES THAT
PEOPLE START AND GO INTO AND
HE'S HELPING THEM BE SUCCESSFUL
AT IT.
MARK GREEN HERE ON
BEHALF OF THE LANE REPORT WE
APPRECIATE YOUR TIME TODAY.
THANK YOU SO MUCH.
>> THANK YOU FOR HAVING ME.
[♪♪]
A NEW TOOL HAS SHOWN
PROMISING RESULTS IN FIGHTING
(13:57):
ADDICTION AT THE SCOTT COUNTY
DETENTION CENTER.
THE NET DEVICE IS AN ELECTRONIC
METHOD OF EASING WITHDRAWALS FOR
PEOPLE WITH SUBSTANCE USE
PROBLEMS.
FOR SOME OF THE 22 INMATES USED
THE DEVICE, DRUG CRAVINGS ARE A
THING OF THE PAST.
>> BEEN ON HEROIN AND EVERYTHING
ELSE FOR 45 YEARS, PRETTY MUCH
(14:19):
STRAIGHT THROUGH.
AND SINCE I'VE BEEN ON IT I HAVE
NOT THOUGHT ABOUT IT.
I DON'T WAKE UP WITH THE
CRAVINGS DON'T HAVE THE DREAMS.
I NEVER WOKE UP SINCE I WAS 15
WITHOUT SOME KIND OF CRAVING FOR
PLANNING FOR THE DAY AND GETTING
HIGH.
BUT I DON'T HAVE THOSE ANYMORE.
>> IT HAS A SMALL CONTROL MODULE
WHICH IS THE SIZE OF AN iPHONE
(14:40):
OR A WALKMAN.
IT HAS A COUPLE OF ELECTRODES
THAT COME OFF OF THAT.
THE TWO ELECTRODES ATTACH BEHIND
THE EARS ON THE INDIVIDUAL THAT
WANTS TO UTILIZE IT TO MINIMIZE
THE EFFECTS OF THE WITHDRAWALS
THEY CAN SELF ADMINISTER USING
THIS NET DEVICE.
LOW LEVELS OF ELECTRICAL
STIMULATION.
(15:00):
IT HAS BEEN SHOWN FOR HALF THE
INDIVIDUALS THAT USE IT THAT
THEY LOSE THE CRAVINGS FOR THE
SUBSTANCE THAT THEY WERE
ADDICTED TO.
>> THEY PUT IT ON THE BACK OF
YOUR EARS ON BOTH SIDES AND LIKE
SHOCK BUT LIKE A VIBRATION NOT A
SHOCK.
BUT YOU STAY ON IT FOR HOWEVER I
(15:21):
THINK SEVEN TO 10 DAYS.
IT'S BASED ON YOU.
LIKE HOW YOU ARE IN YOUR
WITHDRAWAL PROCESS.
>> I WENT THROUGH ZERO
WITHDRAWAL SYMPTOMS WHICH IS
RARE.
TWO GRAM A DAY HABIT WHEN I CAME
IN AND NOTHING.
I WAS EATING THE NEXT DAY.
NO CRAMPS, NO TREMORS, NOTHING.
(15:41):
>> THAT MAKES THAT INDIVIDUAL
EASIER TO CARE FOR AND MAINTAIN
CUSTODY OF WHILE THEY ARE GOING
THROUGH THE WITHDRAWAL N THAT
SENSE IT MAKES IT A LITTLE BIT
EASIER FOR THE STAFF AND THE
INDIVIDUAL TAKES LESS RESOURCES.
>> ON THE NET DEVICE FOR EIGHT
DAYS THE FIRST FOUR DAYS WERE
(16:02):
FOR AMPHETAMINES AND OPIOIDS AND
THE SECOND FOUR DAYS WAS
STRICTLY FOR COCAINE AND I'VE
BEEN OFF FOR 60 DAYS NOW?
AND 60 DAYS CLEAN IN MY LIFE AND
I STILL DON'T FEEL LIKE I DO
NOW.
I'VE BEEN 15 YEARS CLEAN AND I
DON'T FEEL LIKE THAT NOW.
>> I WAS COMING OFF OF METHADONE
(16:24):
STILL HAVE WITHDRAWAL SYMPTOMS.
WASN'T LIKE AS BAD.
LIKE, AND I THINK ABOUT IT AND
HAVE THAT NET DEVICE THING I
PROBABLY WOULD BE REALLY SICK.
>> IT WEIGHED ON MY MIND BECAUSE
AT THE TIME WHEN WE'RE COMING
OFF OF METH THERE IS A LOT OF
PSYCHOSIS WITH IT.
SO FOR IT TOOK CARE OF THE URGES
(16:49):
AND AFTER THAT I WAS GOING
THROUGH AS FAR AS THE DEPRESSION
AND EVERYTHING.
>> AFTER THE PERSON HAS
COMPLETED THE NET DEVICE
PROGRAM, WE DO A POST TREATMENT
ASSESSMENT OF THE INDIVIDUAL.
AND PART OF THAT POST TREATMENT
ASSESSMENT IS, YES, TO ASK THEM
WHAT THEIR EXPERIENCE WAS LIKE
ON THE NET DEVICE.
(17:09):
BUT ALSO TO OFFER THEM THE
OPPORTUNITY OF REHAB.
WE WANT TO FOLLOW-UP WITH THE
COUNSELING AT REHAB TO ADDRESS
THE ISSUES MAYBE WHY THEY
STARTED DRUG USE TO BEGIN WITH.
OFFER THE PEER SUPPORT AND OFFER
THE WORK THE JOB RELATED SUPPORT
(17:29):
THAT THEY CAN GET AT THE REHAB
FACILITY.
IF WE CAN DO THE NET DEAVYINGS
AND THE REHAB IT'S THE ONE-TWO
PUNCH AND THE IDEAL WAY WE CAN
ATTACK THIS ISSUE.
WE ALL AS COMMUNITY MEMBERS HAVE
A VESTED INTEREST IN TRYING TO
POSITIVELY IMPACT THESE
INDIVIDUALS WHILE WE HAVE THEM.
AND THAT'S WHAT WE TRY TO DO
(17:50):
HERE AT THE SCOTT COUNTY
DETENTION CENTER.
WE WANT TO POSITIVELY IMPACT
THEM SO WHEN THEY LEAVE THEY
HAVE THE BEST OPPORTUNITY TO GET
OUT AND BE ON THE DIFFERENT
PATH, A DIFFERENT PATH THAN WHAT
THEY WERE ON WHEN THEY GOT
ARRESTED AND BROUGHT TO JAIL.
PROMISING RESULTS THE
NET DEVICE IS BEING USED AT THE
ISAIAH HOUSE REHABILITATION
(18:12):
CENTER AND OTHER JAILS IN THE
COMMONWEALTH.
>>> POLYPHARMACY IS DEFINED AS
TAKING FIVE OR MORE MEDICATIONS
REGULARLY, INCLUDING
PRESCRIPTIONS AND
OVER-THE-COUNTER.
THIS IS MORE COMMON AMONGST OUR
OLDER GENERATIONS, BUT WHO IS
KEEPING TRACK OF ALL OF THESE
MEDICATIONS AND HOW CAN YOU HELP
YOUR LOVED ONES FROM ADVERSE
(18:34):
DRUG INTERACTIONS AND SIDE
EFFECTS.
>> ALL MEDICATIONS HAVE SIDE
EFFECTS THAT CAUSES ANOTHER
SYMPTOM AND THEN THAT SYMPTOM
GETS RECOGNIZED INCORRECTLY AS A
NEW CONDITION.
AND IT GETS TREATED WITH ANOTHER
MEDICATION THEN WE HAVE THAT
PRESCRIBING CASCADE.
WHERE YOU GET A MEDICINE SIDE
(18:54):
EFFECT AND YOU TREAT THAT WITH A
MEDICINE WITH A SIDE EFFECT.
>> A 2019 REPORT FOUND 84% OF
ADULTS IN THE UNITED STATES WERE
TAKING ONE MEDICATION PER DAY
AND 35% WERE TAKING FIVE OR
MORE.
JOIN US IN OUR PANEL OF EXPERTS
AS WE DISCUSS THE PROBLEMS OF
WHAT IS CALLED POLYPHARMACY AND
(19:15):
HOW WE CAN AVOID COMPLICATIONS.
GOOD INFORMATION WATCH
THE FULL PROGRAM MONDAY NIGHT AT
8 EASTERN, 7 CENTRAL RIGHT HERE
ON KET.
[♪♪]
THE MIDDLESBORO
INDEPENDENT SCHOOL DISTRICT IS
(19:35):
ENCOURAGING READING IN A
DIFFERENT WAY.
A NEW LITERACY PROJECT JACKET
STORY TIME PHONE BOOK GIVES
CHILDREN THE OPPORTUNITY TO HEAR
A SORRY READ TO THEM OVER THE
PHONE.
WITH HIGH SCHOOL AND MIDDLE
SCHOOL STUDENTS LENDING THEIR
VOICE TALENT.
>> ONE OF MY TEAM MEMBERS
RECALLED YEARS AGO WHEN SHE WAS
A LITTLE GIRL, THE LOCAL BANK
(19:56):
HERE HAD A PROGRAM WHERE THEY
WOULD ALLOW CALLERS TO CALL INTO
THE BANK AND THEY WOULD HEAR A
STORY FROM THE BANK EMPLOYEES
THERE.
AND I THOUGHT THAT WAS A GREAT
IDEA.
>> SECOND STORY TIME PHONE BOOK
IS A PHONE LINE THAT WE HAVE
WHERE STUDENTS AND FAMILIES AND
MEMBERS OF THE COMMUNITY CAN
CALL AND HEAR A STORY READ.
(20:17):
STORIES ARE BEING READ BY OUR
STUDENTS.
MAINLY HIGH SCHOOL, BUT I DO
RECORD MIDDLE SCHOOL STUDENTS AS
WELL.
>> WELCOME TO THE PHONE BOOK.
>> I'VE READ A COUPLE OF DR.
SEUSS BOOKS A COUPLE OF BEDTIME
STORIES.
BUT MY FAVORITE WOULD BE IF YOU
EVER WANT TO BRING A CROCODILE
TO SCHOOL DON'T.
IT WAS FUNNY AND HAD A LOT OF
(20:38):
RHETORICAL DEVICES.
I'M AN ENGLISH NERD SO THAT IS
HOW I PICKED MINE AND WHAT DO I
THINK IS THE MOST INTERESTING
FROM A LITERARY STANDPOINT.
>> IT TAKES DAYINGS UPON DAYS OF
TRAINING MY VOICES.
AND ALSO MAKES ME FEEL REALLY
HONORED THAT PEOPLE LOVE HEARING
MY VOICES AND READING MY BOOK.
(21:00):
AND MAKES ME FEEL WARM INSIDE
LIKE PEOPLE ACTUALLY LOVE MY
READING.
>> IT'S ALWAYS TWO PEOPLE PER
BOOK FOR THE MOST PART TO
ANIMATE THE KIRKS AND GO BACK
AND FORTH TO CREATE THAT
DIALOGUE LIKE AN ACTUAL STORY.
AND THEY WILL PRACTICE, PROBABLY
TWO OR THREE PRACTICE RUNS AND
THEN THE RED LIGHT COMES ON AND
(21:21):
THEY RECORD AND MAKE A STORY.
>> NO, NO.
>> JOE AND VIT TA.
>> JOE AND VIT TA WHO.
>> JOE INVITED YOU TO THE PARTY.
>> IT'S FUN OVERALL.
>> I AM A PARENT WHO VALUES
READING TO YOUR CHILD.
I'M BUSY I COACH AND TEACH AND
LOTS OF TIME I'M NOT ABLE TO
(21:42):
READ A BOOK TO MY KID.
KNOWING THAT IS AN OPTION TO
CALL IN ESPECIALLY FOR KIDS THAT
DON'T HAVE A PARENT THAT CAN
READ TO THEM IT GIVES THEM AN
OPTION TO EXPERIENCE THAT AS
WELL.
>> ONE OF THE SUPPORT STRUCTURES
WE HAVE IN PLACE IS THROUGH A
PROGRAM CALLED INNOVATIVE
APPROACHES TO LITERACY.
WHAT WE KNOW IS THAT RURAL KIDS
(22:05):
TYPICALLY, ARE THE ENVIRONMENTS
IN WHICH THEY LIVE IN AND GROW
UP IN ARE NOT PRINT RICH.
SO WE WANT KIDS WE HAVE CERTAIN
METRICS THAT WE FOLLOW ONE IS
KINDERGARTEN READINESS.
IS A CHILD READY TO BE
SUCCESSFUL IN SCHOOL WHEN THEY
COME TO KINDERGARTEN?
WELL THAT MEANS YOU HAVE TO
INTERVENE EARLY AND SUPPORT
EARLY.
(22:26):
THIS PARTICULAR PROGRAM IS ALL
ABOUT BUILDING A RICH, RICH
CULTURE OF LITERACY.
NOT JUST IN THE SCHOOLS, BUT
SPECIFICALLY PARTNERING WITH
FAMILIES TO DO THAT.
>> FROM RESEARCH WE KNOW THE
IMPORTANCE OF ORAL LANGUAGE AS A
BRIDGE TO READING AND WRITING
SKILLS.
SO STUDENTS WHO ARE READ TO,
STUDENTS WHO LISTEN TO ORAL
(22:46):
STORIES AT HOME, THAT HELPS THEM
DEVELOP THEIR OWN ORAL LANGUAGE
ABILITIES.
IT'S ALL ABOUT THE INFLICTION
THAT YOU PUT INTO THE BOOK YOU
PAUSE WITH A COMA OR SOMETHING
HAPPENS YOU CRESCENDO AND
DECRESCENDO.
AND I THINK IT'S BETTER BECAUSE
IT REALLY INCREASES A CHILD'S
(23:09):
ABILITY TO LEARN AUDITORYLY.
YOU LEARN IN HIGH SCHOOL YOU
HAVE TO BE ABLE TO RECEIVE AND
GET THAT INFORMATION VERBALLY.
SO I THINK IT HELPS CHILDREN TO
BE ABLE TO DO THAT.
THEY ARE NOT FOCUSING JUST ON
THE PICTURES, BUT THEY ARE
LISTENING TO THE WORDS TO TELL
THEM WHAT THE STORY IS.
(23:30):
>> FOR THE OLDER KIDS THE
READERS THEY ARE ALSO IMPROVING
READING AND LITERACY SKILLS BY
PRACTICING.
>> THE KIDS PART OF THE PROGRAM
LOVE IT.
THEY ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT.
IT IS A LOT OF FUN FOR THEM TO
SIT DOWN WITH FRIENDS HERE AT
SCHOOL AND THEY GET TO STEP OUT
OF THEIR NORMAL HIGH SCHOOL-AGED
TYPICAL LIFE AND THEY GET TO
(23:52):
READ A CHILDREN'S STORY AND
ANIMATE THEIR VOICE AND GET TO
STEP AWAY FROM WHERE THEY FEEL
LIKE THEY HAVE TO BE TO NOW
REALLY CONNECT MORE WITH THE
YOUNGER-AGED KIDS.
>> GOOD-BYE EVERYBODY.
SEE YOU ON THE NEXT EPISODE.
NICE SPONGE BOB.
THE FIRST MONTH OF THE PROGRAM
THERE WERE NEARLY 400 CALLERS

100 CALLERS A MONTH.
