Thinks 11.5% tax collected on insurance ought to be enough

Comments re article 61786 Special Called Meeting Columbia City Council Sept 10 2013 (Note: This meeting is to vote on an increased ad valorem tax)

By Rickie Williams
Personal commentary

As for the collection of yet another tax, is the approximately 11.5% mystery tax collected on all forms of insurance premiums for the residents of this city not enough? If you live in the city limits of Columbia, look at the tax on ANY insurance policy you have and find the one titled municipal tax.

Various insurance companies collected over $1100 from me on Columbia\'s behalf during 2012.

Click on headline and/or scroll down for pictures

Mike Keltner has shared some more photo(s) of Kayaking Russell Creek.

All of them show some gorgeous scenery, some spectacular rock formations, and one seems to have a human or humanoid face in it - an emperor or a werewolf - or maybe nothing at all. You can decide for yourself. - CM

Happy Tail: Dog's best friend, Ariana

Ariana Wooten, new volunteer on the farm, has been a Godsend
The next earlier Happy Tail: Happy Tail: Yard Sale Treasures Posted Sunday, September 1, 2013

By Peg Schaeffer
News from Sugarfoot Farm Rescue, 270-378-4521 or 270-634-4675

We have a new volunteer on the farm, Ariana Wooten, who has been a Godsend. Although she's been here for a short time she has already earned the love and trust of the dogs.

When she walks through the gate they all rush to greet her. They push and shove at each other to get to her side. Each one gets a pat and she makes sure no one is ignored. She's become pretty good at knowing their names and is learning each one's personality. She has been grooming them, giving them baths, and teaching them to walk on a leash. Sami, our construction site rescue, has learned how to walk on a leash and to sit on command. Even when Ariana isn't here Sami knows that "sit" means treat.

Harvest: Memories of lessons learned in the burley patch

Comments re photo 51240 by Shamarie Claiborne: Topside of the Holler Hauling in the burley tobacco harvest

By Paula Ball Eaton

This picture brings back so many memories. I've spent many hours in a tobacco field/barn, at the time, it was work to me and I really didn't like it.

Little did I know, Dad was teaching my brothers and I a lot and what I miss most is the quality time with my parents and three brothers.

I will never get those days back but I have wonderful memories and I love to see pictures like this, thank you Shamarie! Miss My Kentucky Home! - Paula Ball Eaton

Epicurean Carol Perkins: Food - it is my addiction

Temptation is everywhere: Ice Cream is one of the Food Groups. She shies away from none. Real Banana Pudding, like they serve at the Watermill in Cave City or Barren River Lodge is another craving, as are the great unbaked yogurt cookies at Metcalfe County Middle school, who also made the best homemade rolls there are. She's a pro at Italian Cream Cakes, but finds that with each slice, the pounds shift from the cake to the hips. Two gourmet items she can't resist come from the Walmart deli - Their chicken salad made with real grapes and nuts, and their broccoli salad, just a few of the items Carol Perkins describes in a way one may want to eat them all, today.

By Carol Perkins

Food. It is my addiction. Not just any food because I am basically a little picky, but when it comes to ice cream (one of food groups), I don't shy away from any of it. Chocolate is my least favorite, but hot fudge over vanilla- yum, yum! I especially like yogurt shops. Touted as low fat, yogurt offers me a somewhat guiltless pleasure if I would only eat a little, but that is never the case. Going from one station to the next and pulling the lever on the latest flavor right down to the plain vanilla, my cup runneth over. Is it possible to eat that much yogurt? Yes, right down to the last bite on the plastic spoon.

Educational choices and where they may lead

It is critical that parents and students begin very early in the school career to ensure the students are on track for college- and career-readiness. In Kentucky, we begin providing this information as early as 3rd grade. - Dr. TERRY HOLLIDAY

By Dr. Terry Holliday
Kentucky Commissioner of Education

FRANKFORT, KY (September 6, 2013) -This week, I reviewed a report issued by the American Institute for Research titled "Higher Education Pays; But a Lot More for Some Graduates Than for Others." The report underscored the point that the success we have with our focus on college- and career-readiness will have a big impact on the long range economy of Kentucky and the future of our high school graduates.

'So Jesus Found His Missing Years'

With Apologies to John Prine and Biff

All of the four gospels of the New Testament canon leave a large gap in the life of Christ. By covering the missing years from just after his birth to about age 30, Christopher Moore in his novel Lamb: The Gospel According to Biff, Christ's Childhood Pal [William Morrow, 2002] has performed a delightful, believable, reverent, irreverent service.
