Special News, Ads, for MONDAY, APRIL 4, 2011 Around Adair, Around the Area By Ed Waggener (7:03am 2011-04-04) It's been an exciting week in the news, today is huge. Just hope we have time and room to post it all. Little items will be added here during the day. The first is one we hate to post, in this manner: It's the kind of CNN Tv/radio teaser we detest: The promise of news yet to come. It's about a big stride in communications yet to be announced: One of the best institutional websites, a new one for the Adair County School system, is about to be unveiled. It's in Beta now. The District, at present, is waiting to make it public until it is perfected. I'll respect the embargo, but will send a tip: It's pretty perfect now, and websites never reach perfection. That's an hourly goal. I'm impressed with how great it is now.
