• 0:37
  Speaker 1: underway along a one-mile stretch of Kentucky 15 near Quicksand,
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: South Fork, and Breathitt County, which will improve safety by
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: cutting back and benching the existing rock face, creating areas
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: that can catch falling rocks before they reach the roadway.

  Speaker 1: Crews recently installed road work ahead signs to advise travelers
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: to of upcoming construction as tree clearing is scheduled to
• 1:02

• 1:05
  Speaker 1: falls that have damaged pavement and vehicles in recent years.
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: Two lanes of traffic will be maintained throughout construction. The
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: project is funded, in part, by a $ 24. 5 million Federal

  Speaker 1: has announced its Members of the Year. The following was
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: the statement issued by the Center Director, Rich Bunton. What
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: can we say about two anchors here at the Center,
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: Melinda and Salvador Herald? No better people in our community
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: to represent our membership. They have been coming now for
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: about 21 years and have seen many changes. Changes in
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: Directors and changes in the Center itself. but regardless of
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: all these, they have remained faithful and true. Melinda and
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: Salvador are excellent rook players. They not only know how
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: to play the game, but bring enjoyment to the competition.
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: Many a team has gone up against them, only to
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: find themselves taking a seat and licking their wounds. Melinda
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: is a kind and humble soul, and makes all those
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: around her comfortable. Truly an asset to herself and the
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: sacrifices she has made in raising Salvador, one of her sons.
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: Salvador is not only funny at times, but a little witty.
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: You couldn't stick dynamite and separate the two. He is
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: a loving son beyond measure. We here at the center
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: are very proud to have them in our midst. Sadly,
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: soon they are destined to move away. We will miss
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: them greatly, and not be able to fill the void
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: they leave. Our hearts, even now, ache knowing they are leaving.
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: May God continue to guide their path, and His light
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: shine bright along their path. Museum Hosting Appalachian Ghost Stories

  Speaker 1: through generations. Some are spooky, some are funny, and some
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: fall somewhere in that wonderful Appalachian territory between that really
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: happened and, well, that's the way I heard it. When

• 3:57
  Speaker 1: and is a husband and father of three. He is
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: passionate about preserving Appalachian stories and finding new ways to
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: share the culture, humor, history, and folklore of the mountains

• 4:26
  Speaker 1: state right-of-way. The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet reminds political candidates and
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: others that it is illegal to place campaign, yard sale, business,
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: and other non-official signs on state highway rights-of-way. The agency
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: has received complaints about such illegal signs, especially with elections
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: for local political offices occurring this year. KYTC personnel will
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: begin removing signs from highways in advance of mowing cycles
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: or other roadwork, or as a standalone effort as time allows,
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: if there are no other pressing maintenance needs. These illegal
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: encroachments interfere with sight distance for motorists, are obstacles for
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: mowing and other maintenance operations, and can pose a danger
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: to work crews and drivers. State officials ask Kentuckians to
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: do their part by keeping the state right-of-way clear of
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: these temporary signs and other obstacles. KYTC personnel have noticed
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: and have been getting complaints about political signs illegally placed
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: on state rights of way. In addition, many signs advertising businesses, events,
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: and services have been observed. Both Kentucky law and KYTC
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: policy prohibit placement of these unauthorized signs on state rights
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: of way. The prohibition also applies to signs attached to
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: utility poles on the right of way. It is also
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: illegal to attach signs or stickers to stop signs, other
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: road signs, right-of-way fences, and the guardrails. Campaign signs and
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: other signs placed on state right-of-way that obstruct sight distance
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: or interfere with mowing and maintenance operations will be removed.
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: Larger signs will be taken to the state highway garage
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: in the applicable county and kept for two weeks. Smaller signs,
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: such as those held in the ground with metal frames,
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: will be discarded. Illegally placed signs are a distraction. and
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: can be a safety issue for motorists and maintenance personnel alike,
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: said Corbett Caudill, Chief District Engineer for the Department of Highways,
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: District 10. We ask political candidates, their supporters, and those
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: promoting businesses and those or events not to place signs
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: along the roadside where they can obstruct the vision of
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: drivers and interfere with our mowing and maintenance operations. District

  Speaker 1: Ingredients of Healthy Relationships Another important aspect of sound mental
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: health involves relationship issues. Positive, meaningful, healthy relationships matter to
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: all of us. So, looking at ways to improve in
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: this area of life is certainly worth the time and effort.
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: And yes, developing good relationships take time and effort. The
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: old saying that if you want to have friends, be
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: a good friend is true. If we bake a cake
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: representing a good relationship, some ingredients will include sharing interests,
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: showing concern, being a good listener, encouraging others, and sincerely
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: caring about others. Additionally, striving to be kind, forgiving, patient,
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: not rude, and not easily angered would be good ingredients
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: in our cake. Of course, love would be the frosting
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: on the cake. Jesus taught us about the great importance
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: of loving God and others. Someone once asked Jesus what
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: the greatest commandment was. Jesus said, You shall love the
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul,
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: and with all your mind. Matthew 22.37, New King James Version.
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: He went on to say, The second is like it.
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: You shall love others as yourself. Matthew 22.39. Striving to
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: develop these important relationship skills would go a long way
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: to improve our lives and the lives of those around us.
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: Don't you think the world in general needs more of
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: these things? Honestly, all of this may be difficult with
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: some people. None of us, of course. Healthy relationships are
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: built one small act of kindness, patience, and genuine care
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: at a time. No matter what challenges you may be facing,
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: keep hoping, praying, believing, and trusting, and never give up.
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: Remember to take care of yourself and others. If you
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: or someone you know is experiencing severe emotional distress or
• 11:17

  Speaker 1: Brian C. Combs. The Witches, 1990, directed by Nicholas Roeg.
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: Based on the Roald Dahl book, The Witches is a
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: great gateway horror film and a perfect spooky season watch
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: for the entire family. A young boy named Luke and
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: his grandmother take a vacation together. Soon they discover the
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: hotel they're staying in is hosting an international witch convention.
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: The High Witch, played by Angelica Houston, announces her plan
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: to turn all the children in the world to mice.
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: Houston is fantastic in the film and chews scenery like
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: few other actors have ever done. The makeup and practical
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: effects are really good. The scene in which the witches
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: unmask and reveal their true selves is especially great and
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: as terrifying a visual as you'll ever see in a
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: movie rated PG. The film was executive produced by Jim Henson,
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: and the puppets in the film were one of the
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: last he ever worked on before his untimely passing. The
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: puppet mice in the film once again confirmed Jim Henson
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: was a creative genius and served as a coda to
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: his work in film and television. If you're looking for
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: a horror film to watch with the family this Halloween season,
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: you won't find a better one than The Witches. If
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: you're feeling extra spooky, make it a double feature with
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: Hocus Pocus. See you at the movies. Life on the
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: Old Dirt Road by Bobby Thorpe Days at Grandpa's House
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: Growing up on the old dirt road, I spent a
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: lot of time at my grandparents' house. I would either
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: walk or ride my bike up the road about a
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: half mile, not having to worry about the dangers kids
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: would have to worry about today. It was harder to
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: walk or ride on the roads then due to the gravel, potholes,
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: and dust. Today, the road is paved. Many times I
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: would also walk up and down the creek bed. To
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: get across the creek to Grandpa's, one would either have
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: to go across the creek or walk across the walk log.
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: Grandpa would always keep a big jar of pickled bologna
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: and crackers handy for snacks and bottles of 16-ounce Pepsi
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: in the returnable bottles. After visiting and listening to stories,
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: Grandpa would tell, while sitting in his chair smoking his
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: black cherry tobacco in his pipe, I'd walk or ride
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: my bike home. Many times I can remember slicing a
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: thick piece of Fisher's bologna with a slice of commodity
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: cheese and making a sandwich. These are great memories growing
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: up on the old dirt road. So Be It by
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: Pastor Naomi Who are you? When you are born, the
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: world tells you who you are. When you are born
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: again in Jesus, God tells you who you are. The
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: world may try to define you by your family, success, failures,
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: your appearance, possessions, and education by your status or your
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: past mistakes. Who you really are is found in God,
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: who created you in His likeness and image. John 3.7 says,
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: You must be born again. The world may say, You
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: are your past. God says, You were made new. The
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: world may say, You were not enough. God says, You
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: are my child. The world may remember your mistakes. God
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: offers you forgiveness and a new beginning. So, what does
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: God say about you? You are his child. In John 1.12,
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: it says, to all who did receive him, he gave
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: the right to become children of God. Second, you are
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: a new creation. In 2 Corinthians 5.17, it says, if
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. Third,
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: your past does not have the final word. Romans 8.1 says, therefore,
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: there is no Now no condemnation for those who are
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: in Christ Jesus. Fourth, you are created for God's purposes.
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: Ephesians 2.10 says you are God's handiwork, created in Christ
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: Jesus to do good works. And fifth, you belong to God.
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: 1 Peter 2.9 says you are a chosen people, a
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: royal priesthood, a holy nation, God's special possession. Don't build
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: your identity on the opinions of people. Build it on
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: what God has spoken through his word. Your first birth
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: gave you life in this world. Your new birth gives
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: you new life in Christ. Don't let the world tell
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: you who you are when God has already spoken. Be
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: born again, be rooted in Christ, and live from the
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: identity God has given you. God's voice speaks life. It
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: affirms who you are in Christ, that you are loved, chosen,
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: and called. The enemy's voice speaks lies and tells you
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: that you aren't enough, you are a failure, and you
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: are alone. Your voice speaks from self and will focus
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: on self and image. What will people think of me?
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: I need their approval. God's voice versus the enemy's voice
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: versus your own voice. God's voice speaks life. It leads
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: with truth and wisdom. The enemy's voice speaks lies with
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: confusion and deception. His lies will twist the truth and
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: bring doubt and fear. Your voice, which speaks from self,
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: will be based on feelings and opinions. and will change
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: with your mood and circumstances. God's voice speaks life. It
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: will produce the fruit of the Spirit with love, joy, peace, patience,
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: and kindness. The enemy's voice speaks lies that produce fruit
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: of the flesh with anger, fear, doubt, jealousy, and confusion.
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: Your voice, speaking for himself, will produce comparison and inconsistency
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: of pride one moment and comparison the next. Learn to
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: discern God's voice brings life, the enemy's voice deceives and lies,
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: and your flesh voice is often driven by fear and pride.
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: Jesus said, My sheep hear my voice, and I know them,
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: and they follow me. John 10.27 Listen to the voice
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: that gives you life. Amen. So be it. Building a

  Speaker 1: Healthier Breathitt County, One Step at a Time by James

  Speaker 1: Elliott Turner II, Breathitt County Circuit Clerk Amino Acids and
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: Anti-Aging Scientists believe they have found a way to enable
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: the elderly to maintain muscle. The secret of extending past
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: the woes of old age is amino acid supplementation. Maintaining
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: muscle mass is easier when young, but as people get older,
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: they tend to need to eat less, and people should
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: maintain their protein intake as they age. Unfortunately, they do not,
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: so they age faster and faster. Muscle is constantly being
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: built and broken down. which works to maintain a balance
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: in young adults. But as people age, the breakdown process
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: is more successful than the muscle-building action. However, researchers say
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: adding amino acid supplements to old people's diets could help
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: them keep muscle. This is what brings us closer to
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: death to the degradation of tissue. U.S. experts agree, some
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: saying the best way to boost essential amino acid levels
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: is to eat meat. Once adults reach 40, they start
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: to lose between 0.5 and 2% of their muscle each year.
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: People should maintain their protein intake as they age, which
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: trends prove they do not. Supplementation will be the key
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: to their survival. A team of scientists looked at the
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: behavior of proteins in muscle. As in all mammalian tissues,
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: proteins are created, synthesized from amino acids, and digested, degraded,
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: by enzymes. Straight after a meal, the rate of synthesis doubles.
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: promoted by the arrival of a large amount of amino acids.
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: The rate of the breakdown of protein is highest in
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: between meals. The difference between the two rates determines how
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: much protein remains in the muscle. But in older animals,
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: and it is believed including humans, the amino acid stimulus-prompting
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: synthesis is less effective, and the process slows down. However,
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: the breakdown of proteins is not, leaving older animals with
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: less protein than their younger counterparts. The research compared protein
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: breakdown in young, 8-month-old, and old, 22-month-old, rats. They discovered
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: that the slowdown in degradation that normally follows a meal
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: does not occur in old animals, so there is excessive breakdown.
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: But when the scientists boosted levels of just one amino acid, leucine,
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: the balance of synthesis and breakdown was restored. In time,
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: due to the deficiency of other amino acids, the breakdown returned.
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: The solution was supplementing with another amino acid, and then another,
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: and then another, and so on and so forth. The
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: study suggested the protein processing imbalance which comes with age
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: results from defects in the complex machinery that breaks down
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: muscle protein, and that a complex array of supplements can
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: fully restore correct function. This week's horoscopes. Aries, March 21st
