KY Afield Outdoors: Another productive deer season

By Kevin Kelly

Frankfort, KY - Kentucky receives national acclaim for the quality of its deer herd, and the numbers help draw the attention.

The state has produced hundreds of trophy-class bucks over the past five seasons and hunters last season combined to take 138,899 deer overall. It was the second highest harvest total on record behind only the 2013-14 season.

"I think this might be the new norm for a little bit," said Gabe Jenkins, deer and elk program coordinator for the Kentucky Department of Fish and Wildlife Resources. "It's also indicative of how many deer we have on the landscape."

The 2015-16 deer season arrives Saturday, Sept. 5 with the start of the archery season, and the outlook points to another good season. Biologists say the herd is doing well and estimate it to number about 1 million at the outset.

Gov. Beshear's Statement on Marriage Licenses in Rowan County

"Judge Bunning's decision today speaks for itself. The future of the Rowan County Clerk continues to be a matter between her and the courts. Deputy clerks have said they will commence issuing marriage licenses beginning tomorrow. It appears that the citizens of Rowan County will now have access to all the services from the clerk's office to which they are entitled.

"Again, the legislature has placed the authority to issue marriage licenses squarely on county clerks by statute, and I have no legal authority to relieve them of their statutory duty by executive order.

"The General Assembly will convene in just four months and can make any statutory changes it deems necessary at that time. I see no need to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars of taxpayers' money calling a special session of the General Assembly when 117 of 120 county clerks are doing their jobs." - Gov. Steve Beshear, 3 Sep 2015, at Frankfort, KY.

A great guess, Mr. Durham - In fact you have the time zone right. But the hour is wrong. And you're a county away on the location. When we get one more letter we go ahead and give the correct answer. And we've learned already that the smartest man in Adair County* already knew the answer, but due to shyness and a humble nature, didn't want to be seen as showing off. - EW . *Never to be revealed.

Billy Joe Fudge: Pahkasalo leap brings memory of Steve Walkup

Comments re photo 61924 Aleksi Pahkasalo, Vantaa, Finland celebrates 2nd goal

By Billy Joe Fudge

I know there is the possibility of an optical "delusion" taking place in this photo but if all things are as they appear, Aleksi must have one heck of a vertical leap. He might even rival the 48 inch vertical leap of Darrell Griffith or at least the 39 inch leap of Rex Chapman who as far as my research can turn up are the Commonwealth of Kentucky's greatest vertical leapers.

I want to remind everyone that our Early Release Fridays begin tomorrow, September 4, 2015. The morning bus pickups are not affected but schools dismiss at 1pmCT. Buses will arrive home about an hour and forty five minutes earlier in the afternoons on ERF days.

We have a large number of after school programs and opportunities available for those students who do not leave at 1pmCT, and I urge parents to check those out at the individual schools.

Early Release Fridays allows teachers and administrators to have valuable time for group planning and to analyze data.

If you have questions feel free to call me here at the board office or contact your child's principal.

Thanks for your support as we strive to make our community better and improve the quality of our schools.

Sincerely,
Alan W. Reed, Superintendent Adair County Schools, 1204 Greensburg Street,. Columbia, KY 42728. Phone: 270-384-2476

Walking Columbia: Some suggestions for pedestrian safety

Adair Countian now living in California notes that there, driver's handbook says that the pedestrian always has the right of way. (Is that so in Kentucky, as it ought to be, or not)
Click on headline for complete commentary

By Ann Heskamp Curtis

I thought you might be interested in California's driver handbook regarding pedestrian right of way. The pedestrian always has it! From my distant viewpoint, here's a to do list for Columbia:
  • Install crosswalks at CVS intersection
  • Install crosswalks at C'ville and Fairground Streets intersection
  • Install crosswalks at Best Western (for guests to cross street to restaurants)Redo the traffic signal at Jamestown St. And Tutt St. (Getting the green light going north on Jamestown Street doesn't mean you can go straight onto Tutt Street. Am I the only one confused by this?)
  • Repaint crosswalks on the Square
  • Install speed bumps on the Square
  • Post speed limit on Square (15 mph?)
  • Install speed bumps on Burkesville Street approach to Square
  • Ticket drivers who don't obey the speed limit!
I hope eveyone will forgive me for still worrying about Columbia. It's been almost a year since the house sold, but I guess old habits are hard to break.

Keep on walking!!!
