Medical marijuana approved by Kentucky House panel By John Cheves, Lexington Herald-Leader The House Judiciary Committee overwhelmingly approved a bill late Wednesday that would legalize the sale of medical marijuana in Kentucky through state-licensed dispensaries. But with only five days left in the 2019 legislative session, sponsors say they're racing the clock. "Where there's a will, there's a way. Maybe it's not probable, but it's not over 'till the fat lady sings," said state Rep. Jason Nemes, R-Louisville, co-sponsor of House Bill 136.

The Libraries of Columbia and Adair County Click headline for photos with story By Mike Watson The Libraries of Columbia and Adair County--a very brief history: This begins with the old library on Burkesville Street, now the site of the drive-in bank. That was an old house, formerly the home of Miss Sallie Field, that housed more than just the library, including the Lake Cumberland Regional Library. In January 1963 the City of Columbia announced that the Myers property on the corner of Campbellsville and Reed Streets had been purchased for a new municipal building and parking lot. The building would house, among other things, the Regional Library. The first floor would be occupied in large party by the library, 3,200 hundred square feet in size. January 1965 saw the occupation of parts of the building by the city, but the library was awaiting shelving, and the eventual move. The library was open for service later in 1965. A new library was constructed on the corner of Greensburg and Paull Streets and opened for business just before Christmas in 1978 with official, formal open house in September of 1979. The new library was designated the Janice Holt Giles Library and the Regional Library was in the basement. This is the building still used today. 2019-03-07 20:12:11 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Mike Watson - History

House Bill 311: Meat comes from animals Proactive measure anticipates lab-grown protein products hitting grocery shelves in next few years, aims to protect consumers from misbranded lab-grown protein products. By Sean Southard Frankfort, KY - Agriculture Commissioner Ryan Quarles praised the Kentucky General Assembly for passing House Bill 311, an act that prevents lab-grown protein products from being labeled as meat. "In the next few years, new lab-grown protein products, developed from cells in a petri dish, will hit grocery shelves in the United States," Commissioner Quarles said. "Kentucky is the largest beef cattle state east of the Mississippi River, and as such, our consumers deserve to know that the word 'meat' means something, and that it means meat from an animal. I wish to thank the General Assembly and bill sponsor Representative Michael Meredith for passing this measure on a bipartisan basis and by an overwhelming margin."
