A reminder from LCDHD - Flu season is upon us By Dr. Christine Weyman, Medical Director Lake Cumberland District Health Department (LCDHD) A reminder that the flu season is upon us. As recommended by the CDC, more and more individuals are receiving the annual flu vaccine so hopefully the number of flu cases will never reach the threshold for an epidemic. Last season was mild possibly for that reason. In the Lake Cumberland region 20% of school children were vaccinated by school health department nurses in 2011 and 15% so far this year. Since it has been recognized that school children are the propagators of influenza, then immunizing them goes a long way towards curbing the spread of this disease.

John Chowning: How he became a lifelong UL Cardinal fan It was of necessity, for his position at the family table, that he was converted to the One-true Basketball Camp*; he's remained steadfast, even though all four of his beloved grandchildren have backsliden to their Great Grandfather's basketball doctrine, and are, today, strong supporters of The Other Side - EW Related: Comments re article 56046 Remembering WKU basketball greats McDaniels Glover By John Chowning Billy Fudge raises an interesting point in his comments. He indicated that there may have been more than an occasional discussion of political issues at the Chowning household in the 1950s and 1960s. He is right! We actively engaged in active and lively discussions on the issues of the day and were encouraged by our parents to be well read and informed. And we also delved into the great doctrines of our Christian faith and were blessed to have parents who similarly guided us to seek understanding and learning relative to our Christian walk.
