But it feels good to finally get the first game out of the way, finally get the first win that actually counts."</p><br clear="all"/><p><a href="http://www.lex18.com/news/a-chat-with-cal-changed-patterson/" title="A Chat With Cal Changed Patterson">Permalink</a> | <a href="http://www.lex18.com/news/a-chat-with-cal-changed-patterson/#comments" title="View user submitted comments on this entry">Comments</a></p><br/><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/Wlex-Lex18News/~4/v43577cPn_k" height="1" width="1"/> http://www.lex18.com/news/a-chat-with-cal-changed-patterson/ http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Wlex-Lex18News/~3/Y0E1mR0tKHA/ http://www.lex18.com/news/breaking-news-pedestrian-hit-on-nicholasville-road/ CN - Breaking News Sun, 15 Nov 2009 03:11:33 GMT Katherine J.

The Colonels fall to 5-5 with the loss while the Catamounts snapped a three-game losing streak to improve to 2-8.<br /><br />WCU took a slim 10-7 lead into halftime, but took advantage of two key Eastern Kentucky mistakes in the third quarter to stretch the lead to 24-7. Starting its second drive of the half at its own six-yard line, Eastern quarterback T.J. Pryor fumbled the exchange from center giving the Catamounts possession in the red zone. Western Carolna quarterback Zack Jaynes found Marquel Pittman for a seven-yard touchdown pass on the very next play to put the Catamounts ahead, 17-7.<br /><br />Three minutes later, the Colonels misplayed a punt return allowing Western Carolina to regain possession at the EKU 21-yard line. Three plays later, Jaynes threw his third touchdown pass, this time a 13-yard strike to Chris Everett, to make the score, 24-7.<br /><br />Eastern tried to respond on its next drive, but turned the ball over on downs at the Western Carolina 18-yard line. The Colonels faced a 4th-and-one and elected to go for the first down only to see Walker get stuffed for a two yard loss.<br /><br />Western Carolina piled together a season-high 335 yards of offense and converted 10-of-20 (50 percent) third downs. Meanwhile, EKU was held to 3-of-12 (25 percent) on third downs.<br /><br />Jaynes paced the Western Carolina offense by going 24-for-34 for 232 passing yards. The sophomore equaled a career high with three touchdown passes. Pittman tallied a season-high nine receptions for 109 yards and two scores.<br /><br />Pryor finished 18-of-38 (47.4 percent) passing for 174 yards and one interception. Wide receiver Orlandus Harris posted a career-high nine receptions for 88 yards.<br /><br />The Colonels conclude the 2009 regular season next Saturday at Jacksonville State.&nbsp; Kick-off is set for 1 p.m.<br /><br />NOTES --The Colonels need to win their regular season finale next weekend at Jacksonville State to secure a winning record.

(AP) - State officials warned Friday that most state agencies could face additional 6 percent budget cuts to help offset a projected $161 million revenue shortfall.</p><p>Kerri Richardson, spokeswoman for Gov. Steve Beshear, said the administration is now gathering information on the potential impacts of the budget cuts.</p><p>State Budget Director Mary Lassiter sent letters to the heads of most government agencies Friday alerting them to potential reductions in funding.</p><p>Richardson said the Medicaid program would be shielded from any additional cuts. Public schools, state unversities, community colleges, and the teacher retirement system also are among a short list of agencies and programs that would be spared.</p><p>"These are extraordinarily challenging times," Richardson said. "We will get final revenue numbers in mid-December, but we think it is prudent to start planning for cutbacks now."</p><p>A panel of state economists predicted last month that the recession would likely cause additional financial woes for state government. That was bad news in a state that has already slashed its budget by some $800 million.</p><p>Federal stimulus money has been applied to the state budget to help stave off some budget cuts.</p><p>General fund receipts dropped 4 percent in October, prompting Lassiter to release a statement earlier this week warning that the administration was "very concerned" that the state wouldn't bring in enough money to pay for what's been budgeted in the current fiscal year.</p><p>October revenues totaled about $652 million, down by some $27 million in October 2008.</p><p>Corporate income tax dropped nearly 82 percent last month, while individual income tax collections dipped almost 10 percent.

How am I going to get to the doctor now?'" said Hutsell.<br /><br />UK Police entered Hutsell's car into a national database of stolen cars. They are asking everyone to keep an eye out for the light blue 1988 Oldsmobile Cutlass with a rusted hood. The car has two hubcaps missing from the right side.. <br /><br />Anyone with information is asked to call UK Police.</p><br clear="all"/><p><a href="http://www.lex18.com/news/lexington-cancer-patients-car-stolen-from-in-front-of-hospital/" title="Lexington Cancer Patient's Car Stolen From In Front Of Hospital">Permalink</a> | <a href="http://www.lex18.com/player/?video_id=2814&categories=188" title="Play Video" target="_blank">Play Video</a> | <a href="http://www.lex18.com/news/lexington-cancer-patients-car-stolen-from-in-front-of-hospital/#comments" title="View user submitted comments on this entry">Comments</a></p><br/><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/Wlex-Lex18News/~4/iGXstoXz7jw" height="1" width="1"/> http://www.lex18.com/news/lexington-cancer-patients-car-stolen-from-in-front-of-hospital/ http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Wlex-Lex18News/~3/NA2Lk7ZKuYE/ http://www.lex18.com/news/officer-rescues-man-who-fled-from-traffic-stop/ CN - Police Chase Fri, 13 Nov 2009 20:11:47 GMT <div align="center"><a href="http://www.lex18.com/news/officer-rescues-man-who-fled-from-traffic-stop/"><img src="http://www.lex18.com/images/thumbnails/B7E0517BB6127E643F99CDF18F28493D_200_200.jpg" alt="Officer Rescues Man Who Fled From Traffic Stop" border="0" align="left" vspace="4" hspace="8"/></a></div><p>A northern Kentucky police officer is credited with rescuing a driver who sped off from an attempted traffic stop and crashed.<br /><br />The chase began early Friday morning in Kenton County when police tried to pull over 25-year-old Justin Thomas for a traffic violation.

And we didn't find just a little bit, we found a significant amount," said Anthony Colaprete, a principal project investigator at NASA's Ames Research Center.<br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <br />The discovery came from an analysis of data from a spacecraft NASA intentionally crashed into the moon last month.<br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <br />Colaprete estimated the impact kicked up at least 25 gallons of water.<br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <br />Significant water would make it easier to set up a base camp for astronauts.<br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <br />Previous spacecraft have detected the presence of hydrogen in lunar craters near the poles. In September, scientists reported finding tiny amounts of water mixed into the lunar soil all over the lunar surface.<br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <br />The mission actually involved two moon shots. First, an empty rocket hull slammed into Cabeus crater. The shepherding spacecraft recorded the drama live before it also crashed into the same spot minutes later.<br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <br />(Copyright 2009 by The Associated Press.&nbsp; All Rights Reserved.)</p><br clear="all"/><p><a href="http://www.lex18.com/news/nasa-scientist-say-theyve-found-water-on-moon/" title="NASA Scientist Say They've Found Water On Moon">Permalink</a> | <a href="http://www.lex18.com/news/nasa-scientist-say-theyve-found-water-on-moon/#comments" title="View user submitted comments on this entry">Comments</a></p><br/><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/Wlex-Lex18News/~4/LXkkDA7ofSw" height="1" width="1"/> http://www.lex18.com/news/nasa-scientist-say-theyve-found-water-on-moon/ http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Wlex-Lex18News/~3/6aW0LQFGWpg/ http://www.lex18.com/news/ex-cat-davender-indicted-in-fleming-county-in-ticket-scam-case/ CN - Latest Update Fri, 13 Nov 2009 15:11:14 GMT <div align="center"><a href="http://www.lex18.com/news/ex-cat-davender-indicted-in-fleming-county-in-ticket-scam-case/"><img src="http://www.lex18.com/images/thumbnails/61E7A7A71F703D5810C49D749256AC47_200_200.jpg" alt="Ex-Cat Davender Indicted In Fleming County In Ticket Scam Case" border="0" align="left" vspace="4" hspace="8"/></a></div><p>A former UK basketball player has been indicted in Fleming County on charges that he sold UK basketball tickets he didn't have.<br /><br />Ed Davender, 43, is facing theft by deception charges after investigators say he accepted more than $700 for season tickets that he never delivered. <br /><br />Davender is also facing similar charges in Harrison and Fayette counties.<br /><br />Another former Cat, Derrick Miller, faces similar charges in at least six Kenucky counties.
