Daily News for Saturday, February 12, 2011
More on where iPhone gets the weather Comments re article 42409 iPhone weather comes from Yahoo Weather Tami Wilson writes: Hey, Ed. Funny how that post about the -9 temp got curiosity going. I had the day off and couldn't help but check out the source of the report. My iPhone weather app which looks looks exactly the same as the one pictured, gets its data from the AccuWeather.com associated with the "World Weather Authority".Yahoo weather has The Weather Channel logo on its website, so I'm guessing that must be their source. Not of much importance, but I too, notice that the reported temps for various weather reporting agencies often vary for any given time. Have a nice day, Tami WIlsonThanks. We still sticking with Dr. Stuart Foster and the Columbia Mesonet station as the ultimate authority on temperatures in Adair Co. -EW 2011-02-12 10:23:40 | Comments | Printable version

JIM: Birds played role in early Adair Countians' lives Enjoying the birds in Adair County is centuries old, as 'Jim' points out in this compilation of writings by the Adair County News correspondent, commenting on poetry by resident J.T. Jones. The correspondent wrote 'A somewhat rambling but mostly true birding report from north of the Green River' for the News in April 28, 1909. His mother fed the birds, and his family's trips were measured successful by the number of raptors seen. His lament was 'missing the mockers south of the Green.' His quiet, understated and modest humor seems to anticipate the coming Dr. W.K. Neat, when the 1909 News correspondent from N. of the Green writes, Adair Countyistically, The worms in particular thrived on the natural fertilizer Mama used to grow her flowers. I once saw one of those organically fed red wiggler's tar and defeather a robin. Somehow, hyperbole and bragging has just never seemed to be a part of our literary heritage. -EW By "Jim" Where have you been my bonny birdThese words, penned by Adair County resident J.T. Jones, appeared in the April 28, 1909 edition of Adair County News. I know how Mr. Jones felt. We live in a rural area somewhat north of the Green River where wildlife abounds, but one species sadly missing is Mr. Jones' bonny mocking bird. So rare are they here that so much as a single sighting raises hope the next year will bring more. Alas, that has yet to come to pass.
