October 14, 1977 Around Adair with Ed Waggener This article first appeared in the October 14, 1977 issue of the Daily Statesman. Topics included the Farmers Home Administration (FmHA at Wikipedia), the first anniversary of the Burger Queen, and the way that various mayors of Christine planned to show their solidarity with Vester after a recent case of sign-thievery. --Pen By Ed Waggener I'm impressed I have to admit I am impressed with the efficiency of the FmHA organization. The local agency came through for the hospital loan application beautifully. Dan Propes, the county office supervisor, streamlined the application procedure so that the forms were ready to go with the least agony for the Adair County Hospital District. Propes' co-workers in the office are Marilyn Livesay, county office assistant, and Carolyn Cooksey, secretary. District Director here, too The District Director, V.T. Yarberry, is headquartered in the Columbia office, too. Yarberry works in 13 southern Kentucky counties from Columbia. The district includes, besides Adair, Warren, Simpson, Allen, Metcalfe, Monroe, Cumberland, Barren, Clinton, Russell, Taylor, Green, and Hart Counties. If the rest of the government were run the way Yarberry's district office is, we wouldn't hear much complaining.

Bevin celebrates win in lawsuit against HHS Mandate The federal rule could have forced physicians to perform procedures in violation of their religious beliefs and professional opinions. By Nicole Burton Frankfort, KY - Gov. Matt Bevin this week applauded a United States District Court for declaring unlawful a U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) regulation that redefined discrimination on the basis of "sex" to include "gender identity" and "termination of pregnancy." The federal rule would have forced doctors to perform operations and abortions, even if they believed the procedures were not in the best interests of their patients, or violated their deeply held religious beliefs. Judge Reed O'Connor of the U.S. District Court for Northern District of Texas ruled that the Obama-era HHS enacted the new rule without legal authority under the Administrative Procedure Act, and that it infringed on the rights of health care providers under the 1993 Religious Freedom Restoration Act.

Beshear: Company flooded KY with opioids Unsealed court records show Manchester, KY, a town of about 1,400 residents, received 9,500 doses of oxycodone per month. By Crystal Staley/Kenneth Mansfield Frankfort, KY - A judge has agreed with a request from Attorney General Andy Beshear to unseal court documents that reveal specific data on how one opioid manufacturer flooded the state with nearly 900 million dosage units of opioids over a six-year period. Beshear filed a motion in Madison Circuit Court in August to unseal previously redacted information in his complaint against Missouri-based manufacturer Mallinckrodt. A judge entered the order this week. The information was originally sealed to comply with subpoena procedure employed in the investigation and the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration database, which was released to the public this summer following a federal opioid case in Ohio.

Viewers enjoying new NBC show set in Cumberland area By Bill Estep, Lexington Herald-Leader Alvin Sharpe was a little leery when he heard there was a new television show set in Southern Kentucky. "A lot of times they don't depict the area like it ought to be," said Sharpe, a former teacher at the University of the Cumberlands in Williamsburg. That's a common sentiment in Southern and Eastern Kentucky. So when Sharpe watched the new NBC show, "Perfect Harmony," he was pleased to find not only that it was entertaining, but that he didn't see it portraying people in the area as "dumb hicks."

History: Adair County 'Son' Parker Hardin French Author Joe Goodbody showcases the story of an Adair County “son” from the mid-nineteenth century: "KENTUCKY BARRACUDA: PARKER HARDIN FRENCH (1826-1878)" "The Notorious Scoundrel & Delightful Rogue of Antebellum and Civil War America." After his mother died when he was six, Parker Hardin French spent much of his young formative years in Adair County under the tutelage of his maternal uncle and namesake Parker Calhoun Hardin (1800-1876). Hardin was a prominent lawyer and politician of the period. The book has been described as a quirky history and a pathologically intriguing profile off one of the most colorful characters of the 19th Century. It has also been compared to the Frank Abagnale story “Catch Me If You Can”. What intrigued Joe Goodbody? His great grandfather was swindled by the Barracuda.
