Lester disputes anti-gun claim OWENTON, Ky. – The day was a beautiful one for spring in Kentucky. The temperatures were moderate. The sun was shining. But on April 22, when a large crowd gathered at the Owen County Fairgrounds for the annual health day, there was brewing a storm of sorts. That day, Owen County resident Colleen Stiver and district judge candidate Elizabeth Chandler Lester had a short conversation. As a result of the conversation, according to Stiver, Lester said she was against gun use. Stiver even went so far as to have an affidavit signed by a Tennessee attorney as to the substance of the conversation.
Gas-production facility to locate at Dow GHENT, Ky. – A new production facility in Carroll County is expected to bring additional jobs to the area and fill a local industrial need.

The joint venture, which is expected to be complete by late 2008, means Airgas will construct a state-of-the-art, cost-effective facility on the established company’s property and therefore assume responsibility for supplying Dow Corning Corp. with the gaseous nitrogen used in production of the company’s numerous materials. |
