April 11-17 is National Public Safety Telecommunicators Week By Critley King-Smith Frankfort, KY - In honor of National Public Safety Telecommunicators Week, Gov. Andy Beshear and the Department of Criminal Justice Training (DOCJT) are recognizing dispatchers who daily answer the call to provide assistance and assurance to citizens of the commonwealth. "Often called the 'heroes behind the headsets,' Kentucky telecommunicators provide a lifeline to both citizens in need and law enforcement officers in the field," said Gov. Behsesar. "They serve as an unseen, but vital link in keeping law enforcement officers and Kentuckians safe at all times, day or night." The Governor thanked the commonwealth's dispatchers during a video message, which can be found here: https://vimeo.com/535844322/d3854f9004.

History Monday: Trees cut where the courthouse now stands By Mike Watson An Interesting Old Story--The following story was told to Mr. A.J. Stotts by Mr. Butler Wheeler, July 25, 1890. It is doubtless correct: "My father, Archibald Wheeler, cut two trees, a black oak and a poplar where the courthouse in Columbia now stands. They were the first trees cut in Adair County*, and out of one of them he caught seven 'coons. The same night his dogs treed a bear on Pettit's Fork, which was shot and killed by old man Billy Hurt." He further stated, "my father died in 1864 at the advanced age of 98 years. At the time of his death he was the oldest Mason in Adair County."This Interesting Old Story appeared in the Adair County News, issue of 13 April 1921, page 5.

Gower leads CU Quality Enhancement Plan By Scarlett Birge, student news writer Office of University Communications Campbellsville, KY - "Diversity and inclusion have a role in what we engage with in our reading," said Dr. Nathan Gower, associate professor of English, during Campbellsville University's recent Quality Enhancement Plan (QEP) over Zoom. "I'm not sure that we can say it's morally imperative that you read inclusively," he said. "But I think it is safe to say that in certain contexts it's ethically the right thing to do." Creative literature forces people to consider other perspectives, he said. When reading works from marginalized groups, the audience is forced to reckon with the unique individual identity being presented.

Leaving Green, Heading West, Valley Of Fire, NV, Day 1 By Robert Ellis Robert Ellis Woodworking It's been a dream for some time now to see the west...specifically Zion National Park in Utah. I have expressed this desire to fellow photographer and Columbia Magazine contributor William Lamkin many times over the last couple years; you'll get to see some of his pics from the trip over the next several days. Las Vegas is in relatively close proximity to several National parks. So after research was done on how cheap the flights and hotel packages were for a week at Vegas, the dream began to take shape. Tammy and I met with William and his wife Samantha and agreed to do the trip together...and so it began. It was a dream come true! The itinerary would be as follows: Day 1, Valley Of Fire, Nevada State Park. Day 2, Grand Canyon, AZ. Day 3, Old Gold Mining/Ghost Town, Nelson, NV, Day 4, Zion National Park, UT, and last Day 5, Red Rock Canyon, NV Hope you enjoy! --Robert Click here to share, print, or bookmark this article. 2021-04-11 13:46:56 | Comments
