Twenty-two-month-old Brookley Baize received this sassy looking sidewalk car for Christmas, but her current leg length prevents her from reaching the git-go pedal. Not to fear, however. Brother Nolan, 6, answers the bell for both. The youngsters, who were taking advantage of Monday’s warmer temperatures, are the children of Kyle and Fara Baize, 105 Frederica Street, Hartford.

System to cost $160,000

County schools on way to wireless Technology is the recognized driving force of the future and the Ohio County School Sys-tem wants to make sure its stu-dents are right in the middle of the ever-growing process. To that end, according to Su-perintendent Scott Lewis, all Ohio County schools soon will have wireless technology to aid

them in their studies. “If we realize that’s the way students learn, then we should be ready and willing to assist them in that learning process,” Lewis said this week. “Having wireless capability in all of our schools will be a great start.” Lewis said students now are being allowed to bring their own devices -- laptops, iPads, smart phones and tablets to school.

“We will be installing the wireless technology at a cost of about $160,000,” the super-intendent said. “While we’re not yet in a position to provide electronic devices to all of our students, this new technology will be a great start.” Kim Pharris, a member of the school system’s central of-fice staff, said the new wireless technology will keep students from having to wait for an in-

ternet connection with which to drive their devices. “It’s the starting point in the infrastructure we need and it will allow us to look at more growth,” Pharris said. “While we don’t know what all the fu-ture holds, this will head us in the right direction.” The wireless system, Phar-ris said, will allow students to activate their devices without having to depend on wall con-

nections. “They won’t have to be teth-ered and they won’t be tied to just one area of the building they’re in,” she said. Pharris said Dan McCoy, an instructor at Ohio County High, is working with the school’s teachers and helping them integrate technology into their teaching methods. “Our teachers are starving

Class started Tuesday

Jr. Achievement back at OCHS

Junior Achievement once was a part of the Ohio County High curriculum, disappeared for a while, and now is back. “It will again be an important part of our high school,” said Superintendent Scott Lewis. “We’ve been hearing from some employers claiming that

our graduates are not suffi-cient in soft skills such as good work habits, the ability to for-mulate good resumes and the basic skills needed when they get their first job.” Lewis said the Junior Achievement program, first started with the heavy backing of Texas Gas Transmission in Owensboro, was again kicked off at OCHS this week with at least one business volunteer working with students. “The program was really big at OCHS at one time and we want it to be important again,” the superintendent said. Dan Douglas, president of Ju-nior Achievement of Western Kentucky, with headquarters in Owensboro, said the first session of the one-hour, seven-session program was started Tuesday. “Business and community leaders will be going into the classroom to work with the school’s seniors during the regular English class,” Doug-las said. “Next year’s seniors at OCHS will be afforded the same opportunities.” The mission of the program, Douglas said, is to inspire young people to succeed in a global economy and to ensure that every student in west Kentucky has a fundamental understanding of the three pil-lars of success: financial liter-acy, work-readiness skills and entrepreneurship. Junior Achievement of West-ern Kentucky currently serves 24 counties, including Ohio, Daviess, Breckinridge, Han-cock, Henderson, McLean, Muhlenberg, Union and Web-ster in the Ohio Valley Region.

Change in dropout age sought Armed with a survey that shows overwhelming support from parents, some Kentucky lawmakers will again try to convince their colleagues that the state’s high-school-drop-out age should be raised from 16 to 18. Rep. Jeff Greer (D-Branden-burg) has tried before to get the age raised without success and, with legislators back in Frankfort and facing a logjam of proposals, he’s ready to try again. He reportedly has the backing of Governor Steve Beshear. “A young person doesn’t have the maturity to make that de-cision, and there are a lot of parents out there that could care less,” Greer said. “And that’s unfortunate.” Ohio County High Principal Greg Decker thinks Greer has a good idea. “I think he has a good bill and would like to see it passed,” Decker said. “We need to do

S.S., Veteran benefits

Changes in payments nearing

The March deadline is ap-proaching for anyone who re-ceives Social Security, S-S-I payments or veterans’ benefits by mail. In order to save money, the federal government wants to make all payments electroni-cally and that means a direct deposit into a bank account or onto a debit card. If there’s a senior involved,

the government suggests, it’s a good time to ask them if they’ve let Social Security know how they want to receive their ben-efits -- or to help them with the transaction. However, Cristina Martin Firvida, with the American Association of Retired Per-sons, said while it’s important to make the choice available, worry about making the dead-line should be minimal. “If they have not made the switch by March 1, they should not worry,” Firvida said. “They will continue to receive their benefit. This is so important to reassure everybody -- their

benefit will still come in the mail after March 1.” Firvida said a bank or credit union can help arrange for di-rect deposit or deposits into debit cards. That can be done online, at ‘godirect.org’ or by calling the Treasury Depart-ment at 800-333-1795. Firdiva said there are some important questions connected with having benefits deposited into debit card accounts. It is important, she said, to inquire about fees connected with us-ing debit cards and whether there’s a good network for A.T.M. machines for when you

Despite bill to the contrary

Lawmen uphold death penalty

The sponsor of legislation to abolish the death penalty in Kentucky said he is “pretty positive” he can get a hearing on his bill (HB48) during the 2013 session of the Kentucky General Assembly. State Representative Carl Rollins, a Democrat from Mid-way, wants to make the maxi-mum sentence in Kentucky life in prison without the possibil-ity of parole. “While I’ve always objected to the death penalty on moral grounds, the cost of appeals is another reason to ban ex-

ecutions,” he said. “They’re basically in prison for life any-way, so why spend the extra money when we have many other needs in the state of Ken-tucky. Ohio County Sheriff David Thompson has mixed feelings, but one side of that mix leans more heavily in favor of the death penalty. “I’m for the death penalty in cases where that penalty is warranted,” he said. “What I am against are cases where those sentenced to death end up dying from natural causes before their sentence can ever be carried out.” The sheriff said the cost of keeping people on death row for extended periods of time is an expense that can be avoid-ed. The sheriff did recall a case while he served as an Owens-boro police officer. “I was interrogating the sub-ject charged with murder and, before he would admit his guilt, he insisted that I prom-ise to see to it that he get the death sentence,” Thompson said. “Of course, it was not a capital offense and I could not make that assurance.” “We’ve got our law enforce-ment officers and prosecutors who present evidence and a court system that measures that evidence and hands down sentences,” he said. “Why wait a ridiculous amount of time in delaying that sentence?” Major Steve Kimble, chief

of deputies with the Ohio County Sheriff’s Department, explained his position as it pertains to criminal investiga-tions and the court system. “My job as a police officer has always been to take the evi-dence I gather, present that evidence -- which I feel would be unbiased -- to the courts and let the court system take its course,” he said. “When I do that, my job is over and what happens after that is out of my hands.” Kimble said he has no prob-lem with the death penalty. “I agree with the death pen-alty and I can accept the death penalty, especially when it is imposed on those who do harm to children,” the major said. The proposed bill would make the life-without-parole sentence retroactive for the 34 men and one woman currently on death row in Kentucky. Since the reinstatement of the death penalty in the United States in 1976, three people have been executed in Kentucky. All of those execu-tions took place at the Ken-tucky State Penitentiary in Eddyville. Marco Allen Chapman was executed on Nov. 21, 2008, by lethal injection. He was charged with killing two wom-en, along with other crimes. Edward Lee Harper was ex-ecuted by lethal injection on May 25, 1999, and Harold Mc-Queen died from electrocution on July 1, 1997.

for more technology and asking for more,” she said. “They’ll be ready for it when it comes.” Pharris said the new wireless technology sys-tem will serve as the backbone of what county schools do in the future where technology is con-cerned. “Our teachers want it and they want to help our students with it,” she said.

whatever it takes to keep our children in school. I’ve always thought 16 in today’s society was too young for our kids to quit school. They have to have that diploma.” Dr. Susan Zepeda. with the Foundation for a Healthy Kentucky, said raising the dropout age could, down the road, improve both the health and financial outlook of those students who stay in school. “People who have com-pleted their high school education, or even be-yond, are more likely to have access to jobs that are salaried jobs with benefits,” she said. Dropout legislation has failed in the past, in part because some lawmak-ers apparently believe forcing students to stay in school doesn’t work, and that it could add costs to school systems. But Greer believes rais-ing the dropout age is a good start to what he hopes will be a compre-hensive effort to help low-achieving students stay in school. “It’s not a silver bullet in and of itself,” he said. “However, I do think that you will find that it will be a big help to our society, our economy.”

All banks and credit unions now offer debit cards, Firvida said, and now the Treasury De-partment also has such a card. “You will get one card and it will be reloaded each month,” she said. “If you go with the Treasury debit card, they have set up a call center, so that you can have a way of calling or checking on the balance of your card.” And the A.A.R.P. is warning that with any change, there are al-ways scams that crop up.

Briefly A 20-year-old Horse Branch woman was in-jured in a one-vehicle accident on U.S. 231 near the Perdue plant around 6:00 a.m. Tuesday. According to the Kentucky State Police, Bri-tanny Payton was traveling northbound on the highway when an unidentified driver reportedly crossed over into her lane of travel, causing her to lose control, hit an embankment and overturn. The victim was transported to the Ohio County Hospital where she was listed in stable condi-tion.

By Jerry P. Rhoads FRANKFORT -- There was no lack of action this week in Frankfort. With an intensity seldom seen this early in a legislative session, committee rooms, hallways and legislative chambers were buzzing with discussion, debate and consideration of im-portant bills from morn-ing to night. A range of bills aimed at improving our state in a variety of ways were ap-proved by the Senate this week. In an effort to boost the economy and support Kentucky farmers, Senate Bill 50 was approved by a 31-6 vote. The measure would regulate the grow-ing of industrial hemp in the State if the crop is le-galized by the federal gov-ernment. Supporters of the mea-sure say that Kentucky’s climate and mode of culti-vation would make hemp an ideal alternative crop for tobacco farmers in the state. They also tout the economic benefits of add-ed jobs from the produc-tion of goods made with hemp, including ropes, fabrics and plastics. If the bill becomes law, Kentucky farmers would still have to wait for the federal ban to be lifted to begin growing the crops. Members of the common-wealth’s congressional delegation told state law-makers this week that they are working in Wash-ington to do just that. Senate Bill 43 would make it easier for physi-cian’s assistants to work in Kentucky. The mea-sure would change our credentialing standards to more closely match those of surrounding states.

Senate Week in Review

the students. Core values include: - Belief in the boundless potential of young people. - Commitment to the principles of market-based economics and en-trepreneurship. - Passion for what is done and honesty, integ-rity and excellence in how it’s done. - Respect for the talents, creativity, perspectives and backgrounds of all in-dividuals.

We hope this would en-courage more physician’s assistants to stay in the commonwealth to provide much-needed health ser-vice to our citizens. Senate Bill 10 would cap the state’s General Fund debt at six percent of revenues. Six percent is a level generally accepted by the bond rating agen-cies, and the threshold the legislature has histor-ically attempted to oper-ate within. The measure excludes debt for universities, the Kentucky Housing Au-thority and other agen-cies using funds outside the General Fund, includ-ing the stand-alone Road Fund. Senate Bill 23, passed unanimously, would al-low courts to review DNA evidence after a person has been convicted of a violent felony. This is a simple act of justice to help people prove their innocence. DNA evidence frequently convicts the guilty; it should also be available to exonerate the innocent. Based on recommenda-

tions from the Kentucky Center on School Safety, Senate Bill 8 would put comprehensive emergen-cy management response plans, developed with the aid of local first respond-ers, in all Kentucky school districts. The bill would require severe weather, fire, lockdown and other safety drills to be com-pleted each school year. Prepared schools are safe schools and the safety of our children is always a top concern. These bills now go to the House for consider-ation. This is just a small sample of the bills we con-sidered this week. Each day, bills as diverse as the varying concerns of this great state’s hard-work-ing citizens are taken up in our committees and chambers. While every bill may not affect every person, every Kentuckian is ultimately affected by the work we do. I encour-age you to get involved in the work that impacts you. This legislative session is nearly half over, but

there is still plenty of time for you to get involved. Committee meetings and chamber proceedings are open to the public and aired on KET (including online streaming on the KET website). If you can-not drive up, tune in or log in. As always, I would like to hear from you. If you would like to write a letter to me or any lawmaker, send it with the legisla-tor’s name to: Capitol An-nex, 702 Capitol Avenue, Frankfort, KY 40601. To leave a message for any of us, call the General As-sembly’s toll-free Message Line at 1-800-372-7181. You can also e-mail me at [email protected]. For more details about the work of the General Assembly, you can visit the Kentucky Legislature Home Page, www.lrc.ky.gov. A taped message containing information on legislative committee meetings is updated dai-ly at 1-800-633-9650. To check the status of a bill, you may call the toll-free Bill Status Line at 1-866-840-2835.

- Belief in the power of partnership and collabo-ration. - And conviction in the educational and motiva-tional impact of relevant, hands-on learning. The Regional Alliance for Education will be pre-senting a Soft Skills Cer-tification for high school seniors that will help em-ployers identify soon-to-be high school graduates who have dedicated time and effort to preparing to enter the work force. Lewis said 55 to 60 percent of Ohio County graduates do not plan to attend college. Asset #14: Adult Role Models

Parents, elders, and other adults model positive, responsible behavior.

Parents and extended family can... Model responsible be-havior. Discuss your own actions sometimes: how and why you behave as you do. Look for ways your child can be around peo-ple you know are good role models. Be honest about our shortcomings. Set goals for overcoming those things that make you less than a good role model for your children. Talk with your children about the role models seen in TV and movies. Discuss how these role models match or conflict with our family’s values and hehavior standards. If a single mom, try to have male friends who are positive role models spend time with your children, especially your sons.School staff can... Have high standards for staff behavior. The staff teach children more through their actions than through their words and papers. Encourage staff to be involved in commmunity activities so youth see them as more than just teachers. Bring in successful community business and industry people to teach

students. Try to have lots of posi-tive adults involved in youth activities. Look at ways to operate programs, like “School-to-Work” that puts young people around adults in healthy settings.Faith communites can... Have high standards for behavior and charac-ter among the people you have working with kids. Sponsor fun, alcohol free social gatherings to show that fun can be had without alcohol. Encourage senior citi-zens to help in after-school activities.Any community mem-ber can... Be a mentor for others’ children, especially kids who lack positive role models. Be involved with young people, rather than just giving them money for their programs. Support programs in the community that help adults overcome sub-stance abuse or other difficulties. You can help adults be better role mod-els by helping them to be healthy themselves. Take part in communi-ty activities. Be conscious of your actions and the ef-fect they have on young people.

Kids need love... support, high expectations, adult role models, integrity, boundaries, responsibility, caring schools, self esteem, positive peers and all other 40 Developmental Assets

The Ohio County Times-News welcomes public involvement in the form

of letters to the editor. Opinions, the newspaper’smanagement feels, should not be

limited to staff members, but, rather, toanybody with a voice desiring to be heard.

However, with space constraints, the newspaper asks that those submitting

letters be mindful of the limitations and keep their submissions to a maximum of between 150 and 200 words. Excessively long letters cannot be accepted, but those contributors

will be contacted and allowed to shorten their opinions or suggestions.

The things some people say There were some great lines this week in the world of Kentucky poli-tics, most uttered in Frankfort, but at least one from a Washington politician. It reminds me of the old Joe South song: “Oh, the games people play now, every night and every day now, never meaning what they say, never say-ing what they mean.” Gov. Steve Beshear told reporters of The Courier-Journal and Lexington Herald-Leader that he saw little chance of pass-ing a gambling amend-ment in the 2013 session.

He didn’t even mention gambling in his State of the Commonwealth speech. But by Thursday, some lawmakers were whisper-ing Beshear is privately seeking votes for an amendment among state senators. The governor must think the odds of passing the measure in the Senate are better if nosy reporters aren’t ask-ing and writing about it. (Sorry, governor.) Still, it makes me feel better about something I wrote the week before the legislature returned to town. “He wouldn’t be

Steve Beshear and this wouldn’t be Frankfort if we didn’t have some sort of expanded gambling proposal.” While what Beshear said about gambling’s prospects may have dis-guised what he meant, others meant what they said, even if others found it puzzling. Sen. Rand Paul told the Heritage Foundation during a rambling foreign policy speech. “I see the world as it is.” Wonder if just-departed Secretary of State Hillary Clinton saw that line? Freshman Republican state Rep. Brian Linder of Dry Ridge asked Au-ditor Adam Edelin if his

proposal to assess fees on special taxing districts -- in order to provide the public more transparen-cy and accountability for how those districts spend tax dollars -- “is growing government?” Sen. Daymon Thay-er, (R-Georgetown) is Beshear’s most reliable Republican ally on gam-bling . So maybe he knew what he was saying when he questioned something Beshear said in his State of the Commonwealth address. Thayer said Beshear’s talk of “reinvestment makes me nervous,” that the governor wants to “grow government again.”

Of course, Thayer and Linder neglected to note that the state budget has been cut $1.6 billion -- “that’s billion with a B” as they like to say in Frankfort -- during Bes-hear’s first five years. Friday, House Speaker Greg Stumbo urged pas-sage of the bill of taxing districts, a reaction to Edelin’s review which, in November, described the districts as a “ghost gov-ernment byzantine” and a “scandal.” “This is not a bill in re-sponse to bad conduct,” Stumbo said, “This bill is really a tribute to the honesty and dedication of all those....who have done their jobs efficiently

and in a trustworthy manner.” Now, not everything ut-tered in Frankfort was cynical or hypocritical. There were some funny lines, too; some were even intentionally funny (not always the case with Frankfort politicians.) During the Senate roll call vote on pension re-form, Sen. Kathy Stein (D-Lexington) quoted Yogi Berra (former Yankee baseball great) known for his Yogi-isms. “If we don’t change di-rections, we’re going to end up where we’re go-ing.” By Ronnie Ellis in The Corbin Times-Tribune

Q: I have been dating my boyfriend for almost a year, and our relation-ship is going very well. The issue is with his mom. She is very control-ling; it’s “her way or the highway.” We’ve talked about getting married in the future, and we don’t want her controlling our marriage. How can we confront her in a loving way? Jim: You’re absolutely correct. You don’t want your mother-in-law con-trolling your marriage! And while it might be tempting to give her the benefit of the doubt and believe that she’ll back off once you actually tie the knot, based on what you’ve described, that doesn’t seem likely. Our counseling team has dealt with this ques-tion in the past and suggests that it is your boyfriend’s responsibil-ity to take the lead on this issue. If he’s afraid to confront her or sim-ply doesn’t want to rock the boat, we suggest that you make a date with him and then patiently explain that you can no longer tolerate his mom’s attempts to control your relationship. Then work on setting some firm boundaries for her. Once you’re on the same page, the two of you should sit down with his mom and share your concerns. Your boyfriend should take the lead in this conversation. He should make it clear -

Woman’s boyfriend must confront controlling mom

- as lovingly and gently as possible -- that you are adults and that you expect to be treated as such. Hopefully, she will see the error of her ways and learn to loosen up a bit. As a part of this pro-cess, you might also want to read “Boundaries” (Zondervan, 2002), an ex-cellent book by Dr. Hen-ry Cloud and Dr. John Townsend. It contains a wealth of helpful mate-rial for setting healthy boundaries in a variety of relationships. ****** Q: My husband left me six months ago. He said he just couldn’t be mar-ried any longer. I have tried many times to rec-oncile with him, but he is unwilling to go to coun-seling or to even try to work on the marriage. I don’t want to get a di-vorce. I am willing to try anything to rebuild our marriage. Do you know of any programs or resourc-es that would help us? Dr. Greg Smalley, ex-ecutive director of Mar-riage and Family For-mation: I’m very sorry to learn of the difficult state of your marriage. There are programs that can help, such as intensive couples’ counseling, but your husband needs to be willing to attend. Until he’s open to doing so, and until he desires to work on the marriage, your op-tions are limited. If you’ve been continuously urging him to attend counseling

for the past six months or more, it’s time to give him some space. Just a little bit of breath-ing room may help him make the decision for himself. You can’t make it for him. In the meantime, con-sider working on your own heart. I don’t know the details of your sepa-ration, but in general, when a separation or di-vorce occurs, it’s easy to focus on the other per-son’s issues rather than confronting our own. In other words, your husband’s refusal to take part in counseling shouldn’t prevent you from pursuing counsel-ing on your own. You might consider seeking out a support group in your church that could help you grapple with this difficult period in your marriage. Talking one-on-one with a coun-selor may also be helpful to you as you hope and pray for the day when your husband decides to work on the marriage. Contact Focus on the Family for a referral. God bless you.

By: Dr. James L. Snyder Throughout the years, I have come up with a few schemes, none of which has ever done me anything good, and yet I still spend the energy to try to come up with one that will. It all began quite in-nocently enough as a Christmas present. When it comes to shopping for Christmas presents I just flop triumphantly. I was not made to go shopping. When I get into a mall, I begin to feel the walls closing in on me. I devel-op a panic, begin sweat-ing profusely and then head for my car without looking back. About the Christmas present --aha, that was the solution to my Christ-mas shopping and a bril-liant scheme that would benefit both of us. This past Christmas I purchased for my lovely wife a round-trip ticket to New York to visit her family for a week. A week of her enjoying her fam-ily and they reciprocat-ing the enjoyment. I did mention it was a “round-trip ticket.” I do not mind sending her away as long as it includes a plan to return. Now, the brilliant side of my scheme: While she is in New York visiting with her relatives, I would be king of the castle. I have been looking forward to this for a long time. She gets to have fun with her rela-tives, and I get to have fun with myself. For the week, I will turn our rather pleas-ant little domicile into a ripsnorting man cave. Ah, the thought of it was wonderful. The house would be mine for a week, and nobody would be su-pervising me. Nothing I like more than a week of no supervision. Oh sure, I could get into a lot of trouble, but what’s life for if we cannot sample a wee bit of trouble occa-sionally. For one, I would be in charge of the menu for the week. I was really looking forward to this. Before she left, my wife made me promise that I would eat my fruits and

As brilliant schemes go, mine didn’t

vegetables and I would have a balanced diet ev-ery day. With a twinkle in my eye, more twinkle-ly than normal, I agreed to her stipulations. I had my diet already planned in my head. For a whole week, there would be no such things as salads for every meal. How she can come up with the variety of sal-ads she serves is beyond my aching head. She honestly believes that a salad makes the world go round. Now, no salads in this house, correction, man cave, for a whole week. I love it when a plan comes together. I shall be faithful to the fruits and vegetable regi-men she made me prom-ise. After all, one wom-an’s vegetable is another man’s speculation. My main vegetable of the week would be [drum roll] carrot cake. Don’t try to tell me carrot is not a vegetable. I will sick Bugs Bunny on you if you do. I plan to have a carrot every day of the week. And for fruit? You guessed it. apple fritters. You know the old saying, “An apple fritter a day makes any man happy.” I have made every plan to be happy this week. I am not sure if the bakery is going to be able to keep up with my orders this week. A man has to have his fruit. My basic philoso-phy during this week is summed up in the old saying, “The world could end at any minute. Eat dessert first!” My dessert of course is fruit by na-ture: a banana split. Any meal that begins with a banana split is going to be an awesome meal, to be sure. It was only Thursday when I became aware of something. There was this smell in the house. I looked into the kitchen area and dishes were piled upon the counter. The table where I usually sit down to eat was filled with all kinds of stuff. I do not want to know what it was. I looked in the bedroom, the laundry basket was full and over-flowing and I could not see the bed.

I thought to myself, why are these things pil-ing up? They would not do that if my wife were here. Are they trying to embarrass me or what? I stood in the kitchen with my hands on my hips and I was about to give this man cave a good piece of my mind. Then I stopped. At that moment, I realized I had become my wife. Perhaps, and I am just making a suggestion here, I have gained a new appreciation for my bet-ter half. Things just do not happen around the house. Somebody has to make them happen. By Friday, I had come to my senses and real-ized the old saying I did not quite appreciate until this week. “Two can live cheaper than one.” I am not sure about the cheap-er part of it, but I know two can live cleaner than one, especially if that one is Yours Truly. I thought of a Bible verse throughout the week, “Likewise, ye hus-bands, dwell with them according to knowledge, giving honor unto the wife, as unto the weaker vessel, and as being heirs together of the grace of life; that your prayers be not hindered” (1 Peter 3:7). After all these years, I am just beginning to un-derstand what it means to “dwell” with my wife. Rev. James L. Snyder is pastor of the Family of God Fellowship, PO Box 831313, Ocala, FL 34483. He lives with his wife, Martha, in Silver Springs Shores.

RENOVATING HIGH TRAFFIC

AREAS WITH RYEGRASS

Many areas in pastures are susceptible to severe damage between late fall and early spring. High

traffic areas such as feeding areas, sacrifice lots, alleyways, gateways and waterers are often bare and muddy this time of year. To slow and reduce soil erosion, compaction, forage damage, and weed problems, these areas need to be renovated promptly. It is also beneficial for animal health to reduce muddy areas. Both annual (Italian) and perennial ryegrass are good options when renovating these areas, but annual ryegrass usually dies out during Kentucky summers.

These cool-season forages work well to renovate high traffic areas because they establish easier and more quickly than other common forage species. They are frequently used as a cover crop and can be useful when establishing new pastures or when reseeding old stands with more permanent forages. The dense, shallow root system not only reduces erosion but also improves soil aggregate stability, reduces current compaction by breaking up dense soils and helps to prevent future compaction. Vigorous growth helps these forages to outcompete unwanted late summer and winter annuals. Annual ryegrass is more vigorous than perennial ryegrass, but provides only short term grass cover. It will die out during the summer, whether it is planted in the spring or the fall of the previous year. The advantage of late summer or fall planting, is high quality late fall and early spring grazing. Perennial ryegrass is more susceptible to summer slump than other cool-season grasses, but with proper management (fertilization and

rotational grazing), usually survives for 2-3 years in Kentucky pastures. Some producers mix these two grasses to obtain quick cover from the annual ryegrass and longer term survival from the perennial ryegrass.

Seeding ryegrass for quick coverage not only reduces erosion potential, but also provides a valuable forage. These grasses are often used for pasture, hay or silage. If harvested at a vegetative state, ryegrass is high in digestibility. Compared to other cool-season grasses, this species is also high in protein and can be a useful feed for livestock with high nutritional needs such as lactating and growing animals. Renovating bare areas with ryegrass provides a high quality forage as well as protecting the soil.

Management of ryegrass is similar to that of other cool-season grasses. Drilling seed into a firm seedbed is recommended for best seedling establishment. Ryegrass can be seeded in the late summer/fall or early spring. It is possible to frost seed ryegrass by scattering seed on the soil surface in February, but it is suggested that seed be drilled into the soil for maximum success. Fertilizer and lime should be applied according to soil test results. Doing split applications of nitrogen (40-60 lbs/ac) can be beneficial. It is important to use high quality seed of a variety suited for the intended use. Using a winter hardy variety is suggested as this species is not highly tolerant of extremely cold temperatures. It is important to reduce competition from weeds and other unwanted species. If possible,

keep livestock or heavy traffic off newly seeded areas to allow for seedling establishment. Rotationally graze for maximum efficiency. Do not overgraze and allow for an adequate rest and regrowth period.

Go to the 2012 ryegrass variety trial report at http://www.ca.uky.edu/agc/pubs/PR/PR648/PR648.pdf. for more information about ryegrass varieties.

Farm Service Agency Update

The cost of food in America remains affordable. According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Economic Research Service, American consumers spend, on average, just over ten percent of their disposable income for food. That means the average household will have earned enough disposable income – that portion of income available for spending or saving – to pay for its annual food supply in about seven weeks, said Kentucky Farm Bureau president Mark Haney.

“America’s food supply is the most affordable as well as the safest in the world,” Haney said. “Domestic foods that are

produced by farmers in Kentucky and throughout the United States are responsible, in part, for our nation’s increased standard of living.”

In recognition of this, Ohio County Farm Bureau is celebrating Feb. 17-23 as Food Check-Out Week.

Long after Food Check-Out Week, Americans are required to continue earning income for other necessities.

“We work much longer to pay for federal taxes than our food,” Haney said.

The Tax Foundation has reported that Americans must work approximately 99 days to pay their federal taxes.

program benefits by staying in compliance with the Highly Erodible Land Conservation and Wetland Conservation provisions of the National Food Security Act. To ensure you stay in compliance, work with FSA to revise your AD-1026 Highly Erodible Land Conservation (HELC) and Wetland Conservation (WC) Certification form. This form will need to be revised when you have or are proposing to change your cropping system on Highly Erodible Land, or plan to, or have recently cleared or drained

any land that could be wetland. Before you clear any land or change your cropping methods on any fields you should make sure that you have a determination and conservation plan on that land. If you are not sure, CHECK FIRST.

E-mail addresses and cell phone numbers needed

As money is getting shorter and budgets are getting tighter, we need to find other ways to contact and communicate with our producers and owners. We would appreciate your help in this matter. If you could PLEASE let us know your primary phone number, such as cell number, and your e-mail address. This would be a GREAT help in our effort to contact you when we have new information or need your signature for payments or other farm related matters. If you would, please call us at 270-298-3643, extension 2, or e-mail me at lisa.a n d e r s o n @ k y . u s d a .gov to provide us this information.

Dam ElementaryIn our class we have

been learning about the story Stone Soup. We read the story and poem, and even donated canned food items for the local food bank. In this article you will find out what I did and learned from the selection Stone Soup. So if you want to learn more, read on!

The first thing we did was read Stone Soup by Marcia Brown in reading class. We would stop and talk about what we thought would happen and what had happened. In the story two soldiers were very hungry and

Stone Soup, What I Learned

hadn’t eaten in a long time. In the meantime the villagers, who were very poor and didn’t have much to eat, noticed the soldiers were coming and hid all of their food. When the soldiers asked the villagers for food they acted as if the had none. So, the soldiers didn’t give up. To find out what the soldiers did to get food from the villagers read Stone Soup by Marcia Brown!

We then read Storyworks’ (a reading magazine) version of Stone Soup, the play, with a partner. We also did a paper on comparing how the villagers treated the soldiers in the beginning

and end of the play. We also took a quiz on the play. We thought about how the book and play were similar. We all had fun reading the play.

Next, Ms. Tichenor told us we would make our own “stone soup”. So, if you wanted to, you could bring in a canned food item to donate. Lots of people, including me, brought an item to donate to the food pantry. We got a lot of food to donate!

We had a fun time with Stone Soup and also learned while doing it. We read the book and poem, and also donated food to the local food bank. So the next time you’re at your local library, check out the book Stone Soup!

Hospital GO RED WeekIgnoring Heart

Attack Symptoms Can Be a Fatal Mistake

If heart attacks really happened as they are portrayed in the movies – the sudden, intense chest pain that brings you to your knees -- it would be easier to know when to go to the hospital. But in reality, the pain and discomfort caused by a heart attack can be more subtle, especially for women.

Heart attacks are the leading killer of both men and women in America. Waiting for symptoms to subside could result in an undesirable outcome. A heart attack happens every 34 seconds in America, affecting more than a million people each year. More than a third of them pass away.

“If you’re having a heart attack, prompt medical attention may help protect your heart muscle from permanent damage, and perhaps save your life,” says Joshua Skibba, M.D., board-certified cardiologist with Ohio County Specialty Care. “The medical term for heart attack is myocardial infarction. A heart attack occurs when the blood that brings oxygen to the heart muscle is blocked, often by a blood clot. A less common cause of a heart attack is a coronary artery spasm that restricts blood flow. Without oxygen, heart muscle cells begin to break down. A heart attack can cause permanent damage to the heart, impairing its pumping ability.

However, survival rates are favorable for those who seek immediate medical attention.”

A heart attack may be the first sign of coronary artery disease (CAD) which can be caused by plaque build-up. CAD narrows or blocks the arteries and increases the likelihood of developing blood clots. In addition to heart attacks, CAD can lead to other medical problems including angina, which causes chest pain and discomfort, or arrhythmia which is an irregular heartbeat. Over time angina can weaken the heart muscle and cause heart failure.

Heart attack symptoms can range from mild discomfort to gripping pain. Many people put off seeking medical attention, blaming indigestion or not recognizing the signs. Seek medical attention immediately if you experience any of these heart attack symptoms: a mild to severe feeling of pressure, squeezing, fullness or pain in the center or left side of the chest that lasts more than a few minutes or goes away and comes back; discomfort in one or both arms, the back, neck, jaw or upper part of the stomach; shortness of breath, with or without chest discomfort or pain; nausea, vomiting, light-headedness or sudden dizziness; cold sweats; unusual or unexplained fatigue.

Chest pain or discomfort is the most common sign of heart attack in both men and women. However, women are more likely than men to experience the less obvious symptoms. As soon as heart attack symptoms begin, research shows that chewing an aspirin can be beneficial since this common drug has an anti-clotting effect in the bloodstream. Once medical help is at hand, avoid losing precious treatment time. Immediately tell the ambulance or emergency room personnel that you think you may be having a heart attack. To determine if a heart attack is in progress or has occurred, your vital signs will be monitored and imaging or blood tests will be done if necessary. Treatment might include drugs, heart bypass surgery or

other procedures aimed at restoring proper blood flow. If you’re very lucky, you may come away with just a prescription for a more heart-healthy diet and active lifestyle.

In February, the AHA sponsors American Heart Month to educate people about how to have heart-healthy lives and what the risk factors are for developing heart problems. Celebrating its 10th year in 2013, the American Heart Association’s (AHA) “Go Red” campaign has worked to help women and medical professionals understand how heart attack symptoms differ for men and women.

“The good news is that deaths from cardiovascular disease fell more than 32 percent from 1999 to 2009,” says Dr. Skibba, “And the American Heart Association is predicting that figure will continue to be positively influenced in the future by further declines in smoking, high cholesterol and high blood pressure. However, we face other medical and lifestyle barriers. These include the projected high rate of diabetes and obesity, and slow progress in improving overall diet and beneficial physical activity. With about a million heart attacks a year and more than $108 billion in annual spending related to coronary artery disease, the cost of poor heart health to Americans and our society as a whole is very high, both personally and economically.”

The AHA provides an online tool that lets people assess their ten-year risk of having a heart attack or dying from coronary artery disease, along with suggestions for improving that outlook. To complete the heart attack risk assessment and learn more, go to www.heart.org.

Ohio County Hospital will be hosting two Go Red Heart events next week. Joshua Skibba, M.D. will be the guest speaker at the Fordsville Area Senior Center on Feb. 26 at 10:30 and at the Ohio County High School on Feb. 28 at 4:30. Doors open a half hour prior to both talks. The events will include a meal, drawing for door prizes and free health screenings. Please RSVP to Together We Care at 298-7787.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT

Honorable Mayor and CommissionersCity of Fordsville, Kentucky

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the governmental activities, business-type activities, major funds, and remaining fund information of the City of Fordsville, Kentucky (City) as of and for the year ended June 30, 2012, which collectively comprise the City’s basic financial statements as listed in the table of contents. These financial statements are the responsibility of the City’s manag-menet. Our responsibility is to express opinions on these financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Stan-dards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall finan-cial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinions.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the respective financial position of the governmental activites, the business-type activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City of Fordsville, Kentucky, as of June 30, 2012, and the respective changes in financial position and cash flows, where applicable, thereof for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have issued our report dated January 8, 2013 on our consideration of City of Fordsville, Kentucky’s internal control over financial reporting and on our tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, grant agreements, and other matters. The purpose of that report is to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over financial reporting and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the internal control over financial reporting or on compliance. That report is an intergral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards and should be considered in assessing the results of our audit.

Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that the budgetary comparison information on pages 20 and 21 be presented to supplement the basic financial state-ments. Such information, although not a part of the basic financial statements, is required by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board who considers it to be an essential part of the financial reporting for placing the basic financial statements in an appropriate operational, economic, or histori-cal context. We have applied certain limited procedures to the required supplementary information in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which con-sisted of inquiries of management about the methods of preparing the information and comparing the information for consistency with management’s responses to our inquiries, the basic financial state-ments, and other knowledge we obtained during our audit of the basic financial statements. We do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on the information because the limited procedures do not provide us with sufficient evidence to express an opinion or provide any assurance.

Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming opinions on the financial statements that collective-ly comprise the City’s financial statements. The supplementary information shown on pages 22 and 23 is presented for the purpose of additional analysis and is not a required part of the financial statements. Such information is the responsibility of management and was derived from and related directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the financial statements. The information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the financial statements and certain additional procedures, including comparing and reconciling such information directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the financial statements or to the financial statements themselves, and other additional procedures in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. In our opinion, the supplementary information shown on pages 22 and 23 is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the financial statements as a whole.

Management has not presented the Management Discussion and Analysis that governmental account-ing principles generally accepted in the United States of America require to be presented to supple-ment the basic financial statements. Such missing information, although not a part of the basic financial statements, is required by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board who considers it to be an essential part of financial reporting for placing the basic financial statements in an appropriate opera-tional, economic, or historical context. Our opinion on the basic financial statements is not affected by this missing information.

The products you need with the care you deserve

Safe Medication DisposalPatients often come to the pharmacy asking how to dispose

of prescription and over the counter medications that they are no longer taking. It is important to dispose of unneeded medi-cations to prevent others from getting into them and causing harm to themselves. Most medications can be thrown away in the trash, but some precautions should be taken.

Be sure that prescription vials with personal information on them have the information scratched through or removed. Mix medications with something unpalatable, such as used coffee grounds or kitty litter, put them in a sealable plastic bag or container, and put in the trash. This way, the medica-tion is not easily identifiable and less appealing to person or animal that may go through the trash. Additionally, putting it in a plastic bag or container will prevent it from leaking out of the trash bag into the environment when thrown away.

Most medications should be disposed of in the trash, NOT flushed down the toilet. The exception is medications that can cause significant harm to someone with a single dose if they ingest it. Narcotic pain relievers, such as Percocet, OxyContin, and morphine, should be flushed as soon as they are no longer needed. It is still important to remove personal information

from the prescription vials. Fentanyl patches should also be flushed. As soon as a patch is removed, it should be folded in half so that the sticky sides are touching and flushed down the toilet. A patch that has been used for 3 days still contains enough medication to cause significant harm or death to a child or animal if they get into it. Additionally, more com-munities are offering drug take-back programs through local police departments. According to the Drug Enforcement Ad-ministration, the next National Take Back Initiative will be Saturday, April 27th. Check with the local police department to find the nearest Take Back location operating on this date. In the four previous Take Back dates, the DEA has collabo-rated with state and local law enforcement to collect more than 2 million pounds of unused prescriptions and removed them from circulation.

Properly disposing of medications, both prescription and over the counter, has a huge impact on families by cleaning out their cabinets and preventing harm by unnecessary medi-cation ingestion and on the environment by keeping medica-tions from leaking out of trash bags. Any questions regarding disposal of specific medications should be directed to the FDA website or your local pharmacist.

Many telephone calls into my home -- or at least it seems that way to me -- are somewhat anticipated. Before reaching the phone I’m already figuring it’s one of the children, one of the grandchildren, somebody from the office, somebody wanting to sell me some-thing or an always-wel-come relative. Seldom do I anticipate a call from a total -- and I do mean total -- strang-er who doesn’t want to be anything but compli-mentary and down-home nice. And to add even more punch to an already knockout experience, this one call came from sev-eral hundreds of miles away. So there I was Friday afternoon, watching a “Gunsmoke” rerun. Fes-tus was again re-routing Doc’s already-feisty de-

meanor, when the phone on the nearby coffee table demanded my attention. “Hi, Dave. This is Dave Abner from down in Kim-berling, Missouri,” the voice on the other end said. “Oh, boy,” I quickly said to myself. “I don’t think I owe anybody in Kimber-ling, Missouri, anything, so I wonder what this turkey wants.” Well, it wasn’t a turkey, there was nothing to be sold except kindness, and the resulting conversa-tion was one of the best I’ve had in many a year. I didn’t know Dave Abner and, with the ex-ception of a couple of relatives here in Ohio County, I suspect most of you don’t. Like myself -- only a lot younger -- he’s a newspaperman with The Stone County Gazette. And Dave didn’t know this Dave until those relatives started sending him now-and-then copies of The Times-News. That, I guess, sort of made us “ink brothers.” I can’t relay much of what Dave had to say because it would take on the appearance of some pretty heavy bragging on my part. I can say he said he appreciated me being past the age of 81 and

still plugging away. So what else can I say? How about an acknowl-edgment of the respect one newsman can have for another? How about the kinship that can ex-ist between two people miles apart in age, many miles apart in distance and miles apart in many facets of life? How about a younger man -- after a few years of thinking about it -- finally get-ting around to making an older man feel pretty doggone good? I’m sure the Dave in Missouri just wanted to spend not more than couple of minutes saying what he had to say and go on about his business of being editor of a news-paper in an area much like Ohio County. But that’s not what happened -- due in part to my ap-preciation for his call and a self-imposed need to get to know the young man a lot better. That call of a couple of minutes turned into one of closer to 60 minutes, and the two of us cov-ered territory ranging back 30 years on his part and some 57 years on my part. The difference in age really didn’t matter. The fact that we had a lot in common, and a grow-ing urgency to share it, did. Two guys named Dave in two differing, but still somewhat-connected cor-ners of the world, met by phone on a Friday after-noon and life seemed a whole lot better because of it. Minutes melted rap-idly and stories unfolded as only they can between two people sharing a com-mon existence. Boy, I sure wish I could tell you some of the nice things Dave Abner said about this old news horse. But they would serve only to make some of you think I was trying to improve on a perception you already have -- one that’s nowhere close to that of a former stranger in Kimberling, Missouri. Nice talking to you, Dave. Maybe our paths will some day cross and the word “stranger” will no longer be a part of our joint equation.
