KENTUCKY Follow-up: A Shell gas station in Paris was robbed early yesterday morning following a brutal attack upon the station's store clerk; the offender--a former employee whom was recently fired. According to management, Donna Whisman (36) entered the building around 1:30 a.m. and began beating the woman working the register, Lisa Eubanks, with a metal pipe. Management states that Whisman was hired and shortly thereafter fired a few weeks ago due to her allowing for multiple people to "drive-off"; management has stated that they are unsureas to whether the violent attack was directed at the establishment or a vendetta against Eubanks.
Eubanks has been released from the hospital, but coworkers report that her back and arms are badly bruised, and that she has numerous staples in her head.

Attorney General Jack Conway filed candidacy papers to run for governor with the Secretary of State's office Monday morning. Conway announced his candidacy in May and has been raising funds since, but Monday's filing officially puts him on the ballot for the May 19 Democratic primary. Conway is the second person to file for Kentucky's chief executive officer; former congressional candidate Geoff Young filed in December. Candidates have until 4 p.m. on Jan. 27 to file for the race. At least three Republicans have said they will run, but none have filed yet.

Music-based game producer Harmonix has released three new titles to their Rock Band catalog after a two-year hiatus. In February of 2013, Harmonix had announced that there weren't any planned releases beyond April 2nd of that year, due to the company devoting time and efforts to other projects. Today, however, Rock Band gamers have the opportunity to purchase Avenged Sevenfold's "Shepherd Of Fire", Arctic Monkeys' "R U Mine?", and Foo Fighters' "Something From Nothing". While it was not explicitly stated in Harmonix' press release, it can be assumed that the new titles will only be compatible with Rock Band 3--the last title released in the Rock Band family. The songs are priced at $1.99, and are currently available for download/purchase for the Xbox 360 and Playstation 3 consoles. No word, yet, as to whether Harmonix is planning on releasing any further titles in the future.
