Letter: Charity Baptist homecoming sparks memories Tom Page writes: Made me think of my grandpa, Noah Page, who used to preach there in the 60's. I spent my summers with my grandparents and we would go to church there. He would always stop at the fillin' station on the way there and buy several packs of Wrigley chewing gum and have me pass it out to all the kids in church. So if there's any chewing gum stuck under the pews, it's grandpa's fault.Comments re: Charity Baptist Church Homecoming is July 28 Click here to share, print, or bookmark this article. 2024-07-24 18:02:23 | Comments | See topic Letters and Reader Feedback

New Cell Phone Policy at Adair Co. Middle School From Keri Willis, Principal Adair County Middle School We want to inform you about an important update regarding our cell phone policy at ACMS. In an ongoing effort to improve the educational experience for your student, we are adding limitations on the use of cell phones and electronic devices during the school day. The SBDM council and administrative staff at ACMS have carefully considered research regarding the negative effects of cell phone usage at school and have decided that students will no longer be able to use cell phones during school hours. Studies consistently show that excessive cell phone use during school hours can significantly impact students' focus, productivity, and overall academic performance. Excessive cell phone use is also linked to negative impacts on social and emotional development and various mental health concerns. We kindly ask for your support in reinforcing this new policy at home and encourage you to discuss alternative ways for your child to communicate with you during the school day, if necessary. We believe that, with your support, the culture at ACMS will drastically improve, fostering a better learning environment and limiting negative social and emotional consequences. Below is a summary of our new cell phone policy and student discipline for misuse.

T.J. Samson Community Hospital recognized for stroke care From Stacey Biggs Glasgow, KY -- T.J. Samson Community Hospital has received the American Heart Association's Get With The Guidelines(R) - Stroke Gold Plus quality achievement award for its commitment to ensuring stroke patients receive the most appropriate treatment according to nationally recognized, research-based guidelines, ultimately leading to more lives saved and reduced disability. Stroke is the No. 5 cause of death and a leading cause of disability in the U.S. A stroke occurs when a blood vessel that carries oxygen and nutrients to the brain is either blocked by a clot or bursts. When that happens, part of the brain cannot get the blood and oxygen it needs, so brain cells die. Early stroke detection and treatment are key to improving survival, minimizing disability and accelerating recovery times. Get With The Guidelines puts the expertise of the American Heart Association and American Stroke Association to work for hospitals nationwide, helping ensure patient care is aligned with the latest research- and evidence-based guidelines. Get With The Guidelines - Stroke is an in-hospital program for improving stroke care by promoting consistent adherence to these guidelines, which can minimize the long-term effects of a stroke and even prevent death. "T.J. Samson Community Hospital is committed to improving patient care by adhering to the latest treatment guidelines," said Jamie Wilkerson, Chief Nursing Officer. "Get With The Guidelines makes it easier for our teams to put proven knowledge and guidelines to work on a daily basis, which studies show can help patients recover better. The end goal is to ensure more people in south central Kentucky can experience longer, healthier lives."

Travel: Butch Cassidy Childhood Home Click title to see Robert's photos of the site. On a recent trip out West, photographer Robert Ellis happened upon a small state park on the west side of Utah Highway 89, just south of Circleville, Utah, that commemorates the childhood home of the notorious outlaw Robert LeRoy Parker, better known as Butch Cassidy. Robert writes, "This location really surprised us; we were unaware of it and pretty much happened upon it while traveling through." Parker lived there with his family from 1880 to around 1884. A placard at the park says, "Research about Parker's life here is ongoing. Information uncovered so far shows he was a fun big brother, loved dancing and racing horses, liked to lead, was a hard worker and was kind to animals." Parker left home as a teenager, and subsequently worked on several ranches, in addition to a brief apprenticeship with a butcher in Rock Springs, Wyoming Territory, where he got his nickname, to which he soon added the last name Cassidy in honor of his old friend and mentor, cattle thief Mike Cassidy.
