VIGIL PLANNED FOR WOMAN WHOSE LEGS WERE FOUND IN COVINGTON
A friend believes the victim, Jessica Rae Sacco, was killed in an act of retaliation:
She said she’d had discussions with Sacco that she was having problems with Puccio, who lived with her in her Light Street apartment. Erb said she’d been encouraging Sacco to kick him out.A vigil is planned for Saturday evening in front of the victim's apartment.
“Maybe that’s what set the whole thing off. Maybe she finally had had enough and was going to tell him to leave,” Erb said.

EGG SPILL IN KENTUCKY COULD KILL FISH
Near Elizabethtown:
Kevin Strohmeier with environmental protection said eggs dissolve in water, and bacteria in water eats the egg material, causing a drop in the water’s oxygen.The News-Enterprise/Sarah Bennett

THE CARNEGIE LANDS FREE BRANDING WORK FROM INTERBRAND
THE CARNEGIE LANDS FREE BRANDING WORK FROM INTERBRAND
From a press release:
Interbrand, the leading brand consultancy, is partnering with The Carnegie Visual and Performing Arts Center in 2012 for a major pro bono brand strategy and identity project.|
Interbrand selected The Carnegie from among several ArtsWave member organizations that participated in a multi-step application process to be considered for gratis strategic branding and creative design services from Interbrand.
“Part of the reason we decided to partner with ArtsWave in finding a pro bono client is because, at the heart of it, Interbrand is a business comprised of artists,” explained Scott Lucas, executive director of Interbrand’s Cincinnati office. “Our employees are excited about leveraging our passion for the arts to help an organization like The Carnegie.”
Interbrand will work with The Carnegie to build a holistic branding approach that unifies its three divisions (gallery, theatre, and education center). Project elements include a competitive audit; stakeholder interviews; brand positioning workshop; brand identity concepts; visual and verbal identity recommendations; validation research; and comprehensive brand guidelines.
“To say that we are excited about collaborating with Interbrand would be an understatement,” said Katie Brass, The Carnegie’s Executive Director. “Interbrand is one of the world’s largest branding consultancies and to be able to have their guidance when it comes to communicating all that The Carnegie has to offer is an opportunity that we are grateful for.”
