Court operations amended to address COVID escalation By Leigh Anne Hiatt Frankfort, KY - The Supreme Court has issued new mandates to govern court operations as nearly all 120 Kentucky counties are now in the COVID-19 red zone. Citing the news that 250,000 Americans have died from COVID-19 and health-care resources are becoming overwhelmed, Chief Justice of Kentucky John D. Minton Jr. said in an email to court personnel on Friday that it is imperative to restrict court activities now to protect the public and court staff from exposure. "As I've said many times over the last few months, one of our guiding truths has been the involuntary nature of most court proceedings," he said. "People can choose whether to eat at a restaurant or go shopping, but in most instances they don't get to choose whether they go to court. We have a responsibility to do all we can to keep people from being exposed to a potentially fatal virus." To address the surging cases, the Supreme Court has amended two orders to limit in-person proceedings and restrict access to judicial facilities. The first, Administrative Order 2020-71 (PDF), replaces Administrative Order 2020-63 in its entirety. The second, Administrative Order 2020-72 (PDF), replaces Administrative Order 2020-64 in its entirety. Both orders will become effective Monday, Nov. 30, 2020, and pertain to all 120 counties. The new orders adopt as mandates many of the recommendations announced on Oct. 29, 2020, as counties began moving into the red zone.

Adair Co. artist featured at Kentucky Artisan Center By George Kolbenschlag Two sculptures by Adair County artist David Waltz are on display as part of the "Year of the Woman" art exhibit at Berea's Kentucky Artisans Center. The exhibit showcases art by sixteen Kentucky artists who have created new works that honor and are inspired by women of influence throughout history. The "Year of the Woman," 2020 marks the 100th anniversary of the passage of the United States' 19th Amendment, which guarantees and protects women's constitutional right to vote. The Kentucky Artisan Center celebrates the Year of the Woman with the exhibit which will be on display through December 31, 2020. Waltz creates three-dimensional figurative sculptures, which are fired, then pit-fired to create a weathered look. All his functional and one-of-a kind pottery is made of stoneware clay and formed on a potter's wheel or by hand. These pieces feature glazes that are non-toxic and lead free. No two sculptures are the same. Waltz's Heart's Image pottery and sculpture workshop and gallery, where his work can be viewed and purchased, are located on a 67-acre farm about eight miles west of Columbia off Kentucky Highway 80 at the end of G. Taylor Road. The gallery is open by appointment by calling (270) 250-8518. Article continues... click title or click here to read whole article. 2020-11-21 08:44:48 | Comments | Printable version

Online-Only Worship Services at Trinity UMC By Bro. Steve Pescosolido, Pastor Trinity UMC The leaders of Trinity UMC have prayed and discerned that the Lord is leading us to go to "online-only" services for the next three weeks. We believe our Bishop and our Governor have wisely and caringly asked us to do this and we felt the confirming direction from the Holy Spirit to do so. Therefore, worship this Sunday will be one online service at 9:30amCT. Everyone is invited to "attend" and celebrate our unusual 2020 Homecoming Sunday. You can find our service at the church website: trinityumccolumbia.org (click on the LIVE icon). Our congregation has been deeply affected by COVID-19. We lost one member to death. One member barely survived. One member is still struggling to recover and three of our folks have moderate symptoms at home. We sure don't want this virus to spread. We are praying for the healing of all those in our area who have COVID-19 along with protection for all the medical teams and public safety teams.

LCDHD: Time to step up LCDHD COVID-19 Public Information Brief 11/20/2020 By Amy Tomlinson Lake Cumberland District Health Department We agin have a record number of active cases, 1,126. All 10 of our counties remain solidly in the "red-critical" range of community-spread. There is hope! It is within our power to impact the spread of COVID-19 before our medical infratructures become overwhelmed. Citizens, community-leaders, church-leaders, let's step-up or game. Please, let's everyone do our part in slowing the spread of COVID-19 by wearing our face coverings, avoiding crowds (especially in confined spaces), social distancing when around others, increasing our hand hygiene, increasing our general sanitation, and by avoiding the touching of our faces. A close look at the numbers may appear that Russell and Adair are off. That is because one case from yesterday was moved from Russell to Adair. Active (Current) Cases: We added 16 more cases today than we released historic cases. Taking all things into account, this leaves us with 1126 active cases in our district across all 10 of our district's 10 counties. On 11/20/2020 we were at our peak number of active cases, 1126.
