Sharon Whitehurst: What winter reveals in nature Click on headline for story + 18 photos By Sharon Whitehurst I'm a great believer in the benefits of getting outdoors on milder winter days, getting "aired out." By mid-winter our eyes long for the green grass and leaves of spring and the reappearance of flowers in all their lovely colors. There is beauty of a more subtle kind in the muted shades and textures of mid-winter. Sometimes there are surprises. During the summer I wasn't aware of a bird family inhabiting the tiny nest in the shrub that grows close to the west wall of the house. List of photos in order as they appear below: Article continues... click title or click here to read whole article. 2011-01-09 11:16:34 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Sharon Whitehurst - Whitehurst Diaries

100 Years Ago: Columbia, KY, on the Precipice of Perdition Introduction:This article is posted in a spirit of community betterment, not to steer things up. If Columbia, KY, tolerates the vices outlined by our spiritual leaders in 1911, what is to become of us next, in 2011? Men wearing short-sleeved shirts? Roller rinks? Beer with pizza? Mixed drinks - the gateway sin to the ultimate evil, Dancing? The late Pete Walker ended the argument for imbibing just a little - the suggestion of moderate (Satan's trick word) use of alcoholic beverages - once and for all. In his tenure as Intermediate Sunday School class teacher, he issued this irrefutable answer, "Can you murder in moderation"? Not a teenage boy in the class could answer that one. Sensing that we had learned that lesson, he would adjourn the session, pronouncing it a good Sunday School lesson, telling us we should adjourn to the G & M Grill and have a Coke, smoke, or play the pinball machine, while warning us we'd have to be back for church services. There was always a stern admonishment, in leaving, that we should step up the stairs in the manner of squirrel hunters, else, he predicted, "Avery (Ashbrook, the SS Superintendent) will catch you on the way out." That was in the 1950s. A lesson never forgotten, by any of us. But the fight never ends to keep this place a righteous. "Those who do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it," to quote or paraphrase George Santanaya. EW By "Jim" The Warning Cry: Columbia Saved from the Precipice of Perdition and Pool Room The following article, penned by local pastor J.R. Crawford, appeared in the Adair County News 100 year ago this week under the headline "The Churches and 1911." If the spirit of earnestness which characterized the week of Prayer, just observed by union services in the local churches, is carried into the New Year, then there will be a moral and spiritual uplift for Columbia.

Temperature in Columbia, Adair Co., KY, was down to nothing Billy Joe Fudge writes: 0 degrees on CM. That is the coldest I remember for a while and, yes, the old heat pump has run quite a bit over night.-BJFThanks. It's been a long time since the temperature was nothing. Our barnhouse is a little airish this morning. Hope others are keeping warm. Just took a look at the Columbia Mesonet station and the lowest it recorded was 0.03 F, at 7amCT, Sunday morning, January 9, 2011. That's the only weather I trust. None of this rounding down stuff. -Ed 2011-01-09 07:29:12 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Letters and Reader Feedback
Tom Chaney: Shaken, Not Stirred Of Writers and Their Books. 9 January 2011. Shaken, not stirred.A look back at the more magical time of Camelot The next earler Tom Chaney column: Tom Chaney: An Island in the Stream By Tom Chaney Email: Tom Chaney bookstore@scrtc.com Shaken, not Stirred I been thinking back to the golden days of the early 1960's. I had escaped from the clutches of the Baptist seminary in Louisville in part because I had read On the Road by Jack Kerouac, and in the second part because of a related sense that I had no business trying to tell anybody how to think and live.

The next earlier Another Angle: Poets and Poetry for December, Kentucky Poet Effie Waller Smith By The Rev. Joey N. Welsh E-mail: joey_n_welsh@hotmail.com Letting the scales fall away The narrative in chapters 8 and 9 of the Book of Acts follows the story of Saul, a leading persecutor of the people who were followers of the Christ. After witnessing with approval the stoning of Stephen, Saul received letters of authorization to travel to Damascus and seize any Christians he found there.

Cutting wood in the winter It's Just Me Again No. 089, Cutting wood in the winter, 27 November 2006 The next earlier Chuck Hinman story: My Foxy-Looking Teacher by Chuck Hinman Quite a lot of water has trickled down Wolf Creek since Dad, brother Bob, and I bundled up in warm under and outer wear and rode in a wagon pulled by Dick and Diamond to the timber on the rented "Fauver 80." Once there, we would cut wood to feed the gluttonous furnace of the Hinman household. It was a boring but necessary job if we were to keep warm. Bob and I were healthy maturing teenagers for which this was a Saturday ritual in the cold winter months when we were out of school.
