Drought equals large fires: Several counties ban outdoor burning By Jennifer Turner Frankfort, KY - A warm, sunny day may seem like a good opportunity to clear dead limbs and leaves from your yard, but Kentucky Division of Forestry officials say now is not a good time to do any outdoor burning.

During the Fall Forest Fire Season, which began October 1 and lasts until December 15, it is illegal for any person to burn between the daylight hours of 6am and 6pm local time While it is not illegal to burn after 6pm local time, forestry officials say the dry conditions make burning at anytime dangerous.

Carol Perkins: We are all on the same team An election follow-up: How every vote counts, as it did in Judge Gabe Pendleton's victory. A note on President Obama's Wednesday message to the nation. And pens the hope we stay united. Next earlier Carol Perkins column: Carol Perkins: Metcalfe Countians share grief By Carol Perkins I cast my first presidential vote for Lyndon Johnson in 1968. Not that I necessarily wanted him to be president, but I wasn't impressed with Nixon. In my view from the rural town of Edmonton, Johnson did not have the qualities of Kennedy. Young people are attracted to exuberant personalities and glamor, both of which Kennedy possessed. I knew nothing about or care little for policy. It was only as I grew older that policy became important. I also came to realize that what was told from a stump and what often happened were not the same. (I had studied Propaganda Techniques in Speech l0l.) As a young voter, I thought the President of the United States controlled everything! I paid no attention to the power of the House and Senate-checks and balances. Since I was eighteen, I have voted. The right to vote and the necessity of voting were ingrained in me. I had always heard that "every vote counted" but didn't think much about it when I was young.
