She wrote, "These birdswere sitting on a wire in front of the Old Hutchison House on the Square. . . they thought their backsides were the best views! LOL"

Rep. Whitfield thanks President Obama for disaster declaration

Will Speaker Nancy Pelosi's help to get 100% Federal cost share

By Kristin Walker, Rep. Whitfield's office

U.S. Representative Ed Whitfield (KY-01) issued the following statement today after President Barack Obama declared a major disaster declaration for the Commonwealth of Kentucky.

"With thousands of Kentuckians still without power and essential services, I am pleased that President Obama has issued this important declaration which will trigger the release of critical funds needed to help our local communities restore power and get back on their feet as soon as possible. During this trying time, it is essential that the federal government do all that it can to get resources into the hands of our local officials and emergency workers to aid Kentuckians and begin the clean-up process.

Some tips on counting the birds--and not just in backyard!

Getting Ready for the Great Backyard Bird Count
Starting Friday, February 13 and running through Monday, February 16, 2009

By Tony Harvey

I wanted to point out one important thing to keep in mind for the Great Backyard Bird Count.The name itself can be a bit confusing and that's what I want to bring to those who will be participating. Hopefully this will increase the number of people who will be involved with the event.

The name as you all know is the Great Backyard Bird Count of course, but that's one area of confusedness for some possibly.

Impressed with Governor's openness, desire to solve problems

About: Gov. Steven L. Beshear's 2009 State of the State address

Hey Ed,

I found time today to set down and read this speech in it's entirety. I loved the speech and am impressed with this Governor's openness and apparent desire to be a problem solver rather than a problem maker.

Tony Harvey spots other identifying features of finches

Getting Ready for the Great Backyard Bird Count
Starting Friday, February 13 and running through Monday, February 16, 2009
About: Finches at Rustic Feeder

To ColumbiaMagazine.com:

I would point out one feature of the bird in the photo previously identified as a Purple Finch. The distinct reddish or maroon color that runs along the sides, flank and down to the vent feathers, are useful in identifying a Purple Finch; as well, the rump and upper tail coverts are dark brown on the Purple Finch, whereas on the House Finch the rump is a reddish color and the upper tail coverts are a mixed brownish color.

    Normally, football's national signing day comes and goes without as much as a whimper on the hill at Lindsey Wilson College.

    Lindsey Wilson dedicates Hodge Center for Discipleship

    Family members present for event. 3,000 s.f. addition includes 300-seat multi-purpose auditorium
    Click on headline for complete story plus photo(s)

    By Duane Bonifer, LWC Director of Public Affairs

    COLUMBIA, Ky. - For Julie Walker, the opening of the Norma and Glen Hodge Center for Discipleship means she won't have to move as many tables at night.

    Before the 3,000-square-foot building was opened this semester, at least once a week Walker and a handful of other Lindsey Wilson College students had to re-arrange furniture in the Roberta D. Cranmer Dining & Conference Center. They did that because the Cranmer Center was the largest space available for evening worship services.

    Letter: Questions aim of cigarette tax increase

    Response to Governor Steven L. Beshear's 2009 State of the State Message

    To ColumbiaMagazine.com

    After reading Gov. Beshears state of state message I'm a little confused about the tax increase proposed on tobacco... Are we raising the taxes for Health concerns or for Revenue, if we are truly worried about health concerns. Obesity is a huge problem among Kentuckians, why not put an additional state tax on soft drinks, candies and sweet cereals...etc? Why is there no mention of an alcohol tax?

    Raising the cigarette tax may sound like a good idea to some or even most, but in my humble opinion, it is not the answer to our States Revenue problem.

    I tend to think of it like standing in a bucket and trying to lift yourself up by the handle, a decent idea, but not going to happen.
