Scenic Taylor Co. KY: Frozen Green River Lake 2015-02-25 - Green River Lake, Taylor County, KY - Photo by Larry Smith, FM 92.7 the WAVE; FM 99.9 The Big Dawg. Is it the camera or the eye? Ansel Adams with a brownie or Pete Walker with a b/w $19.95 Polaroid Swinger could take better pictures than many photographers with a $40,000 Hasselblad kit. Larry Smith does it both ways. The photo above was taken with an iPhone - a great camera - not often fully appreciated. The colors often are more striking than with much more expensive pieces of equipment. This picture postcard, keepsake photo was taken yesterday afternoon, Tue 24 February 2015, at the Green River Boat Dock in Taylor County. Looking across the lake there Smith Ridge and Goat Island.

Steve Turner advocates for Technology Engineer for AC Schools 2015-02-24 - 1204 Greensburg Street, Columbia, KY - Photo by Ed Waggener. Technology Director Steve Turner advocated for a District Technology Engineer for the Adair County School District, and received unanimous approval for the new position. A salary schedule, also unanimously approved sets a minimum $30,000 per year salary schedule, with experience steps, and certification levels increases. Technology is quickly becoming a major necessity. Supt. Reed noted that the use of hand held devices has rapidly increased in the past few years, placing a new level of stress on the system. Mr. Turner cited problems in the Ag building, badly underserved - but not corrected - as one situation a District Technology Engineer would have quickly found. Presently, two technology technicians, Technology Technician Jason Rector and Technology Technician Assistant Trey Grider, work on a "Break & Fix" protocol. Something breaks, they fix it. The Technology Engineer would be a planning and prevention position, anticipating problems before the system breaks down. The position will be posted soon, with the District Technology Engineer, with the aim of having her or him in office by July 1, 2015. Photo taken at the Special Regular Board meeting, Mon 23 Feb 2015. Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.

Adair School Board approves school bus garage plan 2015-02-24 - 1204 Greensburg Street, Columbia, KY - Photo by Ed Waggener. Gabe Jones, architect with Sherman-Barnhardt-Carter, Architects, present the schematic for the proposed Adair County School District Bus Garage. The drawing shows an option in the upper right hand corner for a new maintenance building, which would replace the present one at 350 Indian Drive, but the inclusion of that building at this time would exceed the District's present bonding capacity. "So," Supt. Alan Reed said," it is not likely at the time." Still he said, It will be part of the total plan forwarded to the Kentucky Department of Education Buildings and Grounds for approval. When the new Maintenance Building is constructed, the 350 building would be converted to house baseball after the present bus garage is torn down, Superintendent Reed said. The board voted unanimously to approve the Adair County Bus Garage. The photo was taken at the Mon 23 Feb 2015 Special Regular Meeting of the Adair County Board of Education.
