A Harrison County High School student got way more than he expected when he decided to follow his teacher's advice and write his congressman.
Within a few weeks of writing a letter of protest with a petition to Kentucky's legislators in Washington, Ryan Huff, 16, a Harrison County High School sophomore and a member of Future Farmers of America, found himself in a face-to-face meeting with U.S. Sen. Rand Paul and organizing a class visit for U.S. Rep. Andy Barr.

A Harrison County man was airlifted for treatment after accidentally shooting a hole through his hand while checking the finish on a handgun he had just treated and re-assembled.

I recently went on what I call a faith adventure.
The 45th annual Cynthiana-Harrison County Chamber of Commerce awards banquet has been rescheduled for Monday, Feb. 23.
Originally scheduled for Tuesday, Feb. 17, the banquet was cancelled due to Monday's snow storm.
Two Harrison County High School teachers were honored as Kentucky Lottery Teachers of the Week by Channel 36. These segments air on Fridays during the noon newscasts. Roger Hurst and Kayla Coburn are pictured with WTVQ's Alicia Dohmer. Hurst's segment was Friday, Feb. 13, and Dohmer's is this Friday, Feb. 20.
Stephen Yarnell, senior trumpet student at Harrison County High School, was selected to perform with Kentucky's finest musicians.
He participated as a member of the Kentucky Music Educators Association All-State Orchestra and performed on Saturday, Feb. 7, at the Kentucky Center for the Arts in Louisville.
Harrison County Search and Rescue volunteers, along with a search dog, spent seven hours in blizzard conditions and freezing temperatures Monday night trying to locate a Cynthiana man reported missing earlier in the day from Shady Lawn on Pike Street.
Despite recent news reports on measles cases in California and other pockets of the country, the threat to Harrison County children is minimal, said pediatrician Lauren Blackwell, M.D. of Licking Valley Internal Medicine Associates.
Kentucky Gov. Steve Beshear has called for a special election on Tuesday, March 3, to fill the seat of Wayne Blevins Jr. who resigned as representative of the 27th Senatorial District.

Work on new I-90 bridge over Mississippi to start Monday
La Crosse - After more than 10 years of planning, construction of the new I-90 bridge that crosses the Mississippi River at Dresbach, Minn., is expected to begin Monday.
Transportation officials said the first year of the project won't cause many traffic delays. Interstate 90 will remain open during the four-year project, but various ramps will be closed for months at a time. Project manager Terry Ward said traffic from La Crosse to La Crescent, Minn., on westbound I-90 to southbound Highway 61 will be closed for an extended period of time. »Read Full Article(2)

First we have to talk about the first stage between Douarnenez and Sada canceled: "I had to have an advantage of about twelve hours. then, 48 hours later, I heard on the radio that the race would be neutralized in Sada. "
... "Having heard the message of the organization ...with the second well
way back I approached the Spanish port of Sada and try to find the finish line. A boat comes up to me and announces that there is no finish line , without telling me anything more.
I thought it was something serious, a death or a serious incident for them to decide not to finish the race. When I heard that instead it was just a matter of bad weather, I was pissed. The Race Direction did not had the right of not giving a classification due to the already expected weather conditions.
If the Director Denis Hugues saw the necessity to stop the race, he had to provide a classification through a passage point where he considered safe and that would allow a secure passage to Sada for all.
In my opinion he did not have the right to cancel everything.
Pedote then retraces his race from Sada to Point a Pitre. "I knew I had tpo take the same strategy as when the stage canceled. I put myself at the head of the fleet, going for winds as strong as possible (40 knots). ...The first night I was making 13 knots with 30k wind when the the head of one of the two rudders exploded.
... To repair the damage, I worked with the two arms in the water , with a key and eight small bolts. Meanwhile, I called Marie Benoit with the VHF asking him to inform the direction of the race and I had activated the buzzer that indicates "Presence on board." When I saw the head of the rudder I said to myself that my race was over. ... I do not know how I did it - and in an hour and a half I had made the repair and went back to full speed again.
A hundred miles later I realize that there was a crack at the junction of the canting keel. Again I thought: "I'm screwed.". ... I was abeam of Puerto Calero but I realized that if I stopped there for repairs my race was compromised .. So I decided to continue. ... I have chosen to risk rather than finish second. " COULD NOT SURF WAVES ANYMORE "From then on it was all very stressful. From time to time I put the the boat on automatic pilot and put my hands on the crack to see if it was getting bigger.
I thought to try a repair with resin, but I did not. Luckily, otherwise I would not have been able to repair the broken bowsprit at 300 miles from the finish.
... I never expected to lose the race. This second place is dificult to accept. "
..We asked Pedote what have he changed on his boat (named Magnum) after ..he bought it to David Raison. "I worked..on the shape of the sails to fit the way I steer, but I am not still 100% satisfied. Then, I moved the mast forward to make it less ardent. Finally, I disassembled piece by piece the boat for knowing it by heart and always be able to know what to do in the race. ...

Giornale della Vela - Gli Speciali | Pedote Ero partito per vincere ma successo di tutto Giancarlo Pedote parla a ruota libera dopo la delusione del secondo posto alla Mini Transat ma mai
Wow! What an ordeal to go through and still come up just 2 hours short of victory. But also, what an example of superb seamanship, in the classic sense of the MT - dealing with each problem on your own, with no outside assistance, while continuing to compete as hard as you can. And, of course, we can say the same about Benoit Marie, as well. Indeed, in Benoit's case, he knew from the start, as well as Pedote, that 747 was faster in most conditions, and that it would require everything he had to win the race.
Perhaps the most important thing to note, from all this, is that everyone apparently knew from the very beginning that the scow was fast, and that this would give Pedote an advantage, should he have the skill to take it (which he clearly did). And, so we now see the new Pogo 3 design from Verdier which incorporates some of the scow bow characteristics, though not in the extreme. And since this is a Series boat, Structures can afford not to go all the way because nobody else (one imagines) is going to build a scow Series boat that will be able to beat the Pogo 3.
The interesting question then becomes: will the Pogo 3 be able to beat most of the conventional Proto designs, thereby forcing new Protos to adopt the scow characteristics? It is not a trivial question because we have seen Belloir finish 6th overall in a Nacira 6.50, and one must assume the Pogo 3 will be faster than that, in the right hands.
Of course, as Paolo reminds me, the scow seems to have the biggest advantage in the Transat race itself, and perhaps not so much in other races. But I'm not so certain that's true, and if the Pogo 3 turns out to be a dangerous weapon, it may, as I suggested, still force the Protos to adopt the more radical design, regardless.
Watching some of the video of 747 in this year's race, it is so obvious to the naked eye why it's so fast off the wind. What is more difficult to understand is why it seems to be equally effective upwind. Only in light air does the extra wetted surface area prove detrimental to speed and performance. But nobody wants to sail in light air anyway.
So, I predict the Pogo 3 is going to kick all other designs off the podium once it gets into the hands of the top Series skippers.
We deal in lead, friend.

'Bruce Jenner's unwavering courage and bravery inspired' new transition fund
A transgender porn site is offering to pay for gender reassignment surgeries.
Ross Bleustein, co-owner of the relatively new Trans500.com, last week announced the creation of a transition surgery fund.
Bleustein said the inspiration came from watching Keeping Up with the Kardashians star and former Olympian Bruce Jenner come out as transgender on national TV.
21 European countries have laws such as this including France, Italy and Turkey
The European Court of Human Rights has ruled a law requiring trans people be permanently infertile before they undergo treatment is incompatible with human rights.
The judges in Strasbourg made the judgment after a transgender man, 'YY', in Turkey was told he would have to be sterile if he wished to undergo gender reassignment surgery in 2005.
Three years later, he turned to the ECHR saying his right to respect for privacy and a family life was violated by Turkey's 'absurd' laws.
The film is the true tale of one of the first people to undergo gender reassignment surgery – and what happened to her
The first picture of Eddie Redmayne playing transgender pioneer Lili Elbe has been unveiled.
Redmayne, who just won an Oscar for his role as Stephen Hawking in The Theory of Everything, will play Elbe in forthcoming drama, The Danish Girl.
The film, set in the 1920s, tells the story of a painter named Wegener, who was persuaded by her wife, also a painter, to pose in women's clothing for her.
This opened up a whole new world for Wegener, who later began her male-to-female transition and changed her name to Lili Elbe.
Supreme Court rules in favor of two non-operative transgender women
Transgender Israelis are no longer required to undergo sex reassignment surgery (SRS) to change the gender designation on their ID cards.
The change comes after the Supreme Court ordered the ministry of interior to legally change the gender of two transgender citizens from male to female, Haaretz newspaper reported.
A petition was filed at the court by a lawyer and an ex-soldier who started transitioning during her compulsory military service.
UK prime minister says he is proud of legalizing same-sex marriage
UK Prime Minister David Cameron has said he is proud of his role in legalizing gay marriage but has yet to attend one.
The Conservative leader said he had received 'lots' of invitations to same-sex weddings and was certain he would go to one soon.
Film based on novel about Danish painter who was one of the first persons to undergo sex-change surgery
Eddie Redmayne has landed the lead role in the film version of the novel The Danish Girl, the story of an acclaimed transgender painter.
The film, inspired by the novel written by David Ebershoff, is about the Danish painter born Einar Wegener who was one of the first identifiable recipients of sex reassignment surgery.
Such surgery was still experimental when Wegener had the first of five operations beginning in 1930 - something that caused a sensation in newspapers of Denmark and Germany.
These women have all been great contributors to art, poetry, literature, film, and culture
Undoubtedly, many gay, bisexual and trans women from the ages likely lived their lives miserable as they felt they had no other choice than to follow society's expectations.
But no woman ever made history by following all the rules, and that is true of all 11 women on this list.
From Hollywood starlets to artists and activists, these 11 women made a huge impact on thousands of lives by daring to follow their hearts.
Says defendant: 'Our decision has nothing to do with ignorance or being bigots - it has to do with a very real understanding ... of fundamental biology'
Transgender athlete Chloie Jonnson has filed a $2.5 million lawsuit against the CrossFit Games, a competition billed as the world's premier test to find the Fittest on Earth.
Johnson filed suit after being told she would have to compete as a man in the competition which has been held annually since 2007.
Johnson underwent sex reassignment surgery in 2006 and is legally recognized as a woman in the state of California where she lives. She is 5 feet, four inches tall and weighs 151 pounds.
Council of Europe tells 29 member countries coerced sterilization of transgender people is a major human rights abuse, urges action
Twenty-nine countries in Europe are insisting transgender people are sterilized before their true gender is recognized in law.
That represents a major abuse of human rights and must stop, says a new report from the Council of Europe.
In many European countries, sterilization or sex reassignment surgery or both are a requirement for the country to legally recognize a transgender person in his or her new gender.
While gender reassignment surgery may incidentally cause someone to become sterile, some countries also insist on sterilization.
British transgender community slams GMC investigation into Dr Richard Curtis, saying GP's London clinic is a 'lifeline' to patients seeking transition
Transgender campaigners are calling for an end to a 'witch hunt' against a British doctor accused of errors in treating gender reassignment patients.
The General Medical Council probe into the practice of Dr Richard Curtis was launched after allegations over his prescription of hormone therapy drugs and a serious complaint by one patient who had a double mastectomy but later regretted the decision.
YouTube user posts video montage of her facial feminization surgery over three year period
A transgender woman's journey of transition has been captured using time lapse photography in an amazing viral YouTube video.
The video by user iiGethi features around 1,000 photos of herself taken over a three year period.
Shown in quick succession, viewers see her transform physically from a handsome man into a beautiful young woman.
In the clip's description, the user says she had Facial Feminization Surgery (FFS), starting from when she was roughly was 20 to 21 years of age.
Investigation into doctor who treats gender reassignment patients accused of being a 'witch hunt' by NHS
A doctor who treated trans men and women seeking gender reassignment is being investigated after several patients complained about his practices.
One of the most serious complaints which prompted Britain's General Medical Council to investigate Dr Richard Curtis was filed by a patient who had a double mastectomy and hormone therapy but later regretted the decision.
Promising to stop transgender people from avoiding debts, the Californian city has voted to offer free operations
San Francisco is going to become the first US city to provide and cover the cost of sex reassignment surgeries.
The Californian city's Health Commission has voted to create a program for treating transgender people fully, as reported by the Associated Press.
Barbara Garcia, Public Health Director, said San Francisco already provides transgender residents with hormones, counseling and routine health services, but stopped short of offering surgical procedures.
Trans around the world join Chaz Bono in choosing Eastern European country for gender reassignment surgery
Serbia has become a Mecca for gender reassignment surgery with the help of subsidies from the country's national health insurance.
According to the Belgrade Center for Genital Reconstructive Surgery, nearly 100 foreigners and Serbs have undergone the procedure in the past year, reported the New York Times.
Government could face legal challenges if they cut free sex reassignment surgery for the military
Canada's National Defence Department is considering cutting free Viagra and tax-paid transgender surgery for their armed forces.
The country is currently looking for ways to trim its $1.5 billion (£922million, €1.1billion) defence budget, and both programs cost more than $2million (£1.2million, €1.5million) a year.
Thomas Beatie reveals that gender reassignment surgery has also been completed
Tom Beatie was legally a man when he gave birth to his first child in 2007. Photos of his bearded face and pregnant belly caused a media sensation and led to him be dubbed 'the world's first pregnant man.'
He won't be getting pregnant again.
Beatie, who was born a female and went on to give birth to two more children, revealed on Thursday (19 April) that his gender reassignment surgery is now complete.
Trans discrimination is un-Christian says Swedish centre-right party in major u-turn

I mentioned previously that I was having a difficult time finding Scrivener templates for freelance writers. Most are focused on writing books. I already released two free templates that will help you use Scrivener for blogging -- one for managing a single blog and one for managing multiple blogs. Today I'm releasing my first template for common freelance writing projects -- a white paper template.
About the Scrivener White Paper Template
I broke down the template by common white paper sections. Each section has it's own folder in the Binder view.
Only sections included in the "Main Content" folder are compiled into your exported white paper. In the template, these include the bare bones white paper sections. Others are included in the "Optional Content" folder (as seen below).
If you decide to use any of these optional sections, simply drag the documents into the main content folder and place them where you'd like them to appear in the current document order.
You can remove sections from your white paper, or re-order them, in the same way. Drag them to their appropriate position or drag them into the optional content folder if you don't want to use them.
There is also a simple Title page example, and a Statistics & Sources page in the Research section. This is where you can quickly list any interesting statistics you find during your research (along with their sources), making it easy to sort through them later to pick the best supporting information when drafting your white paper.
Download & Install the Template
This template should work for both Mac and Windows versions of scrivener.
* Please remember to unzip / extract the Scrivener template file from the compressed (.zip) folder that you download. You must do this before importing the template into Scrivener. Also remember that you must either copy and paste the extracted template file into the folder on your system where Scrivener templates are stored, or you must import the template through Scrivener. In the Windows version, for example, you go to your File menu and click "New Project." On the next screen, go to the Options mention near the lower left corner. Choose "import templates." Find the file you extracted, and Scrivener will import the template for you.

10 Tasks, Tips and Traps for Business/Commercial LeasesWed, 05/27/2015 - 15:52 — superadmin
Business/commercial leases can be dangerous territory for a company or business client's legal counsel. I have encountered many requests from business clients like, "If you have a few minutes, can you look over a new lease I am thinking of entering into for new or existing leased space?" and "I don't need a complete review, just the basics."
Succession Planning with Life Insurance for the Family Business, Cottage or FarmTue, 09/23/2014 - 12:00 — superadmin
In my experience assisting families with succession planning for legacy assets such as their family business, cottage or farm, the biggest challenge I've found is making sure there is enough money to pay for the immediate obligations after the current owner's death. These obligations can be in the form of taxes, possible interruptions to business operations, and revenue and debt service. The obligations also may extend to longer-term capital needs such as paying the bills for these assets.
Should Your Business Have a Domestic Abuse Policy?Tue, 09/23/2014 - 11:56 — superadmin
Domestic violence has been making news headlines lately, mainly because of the high-profile cases of the National Football League players Ray Rice, Adrian Peterson and others. This publicity has drawn attention to the ambiguity surrounding the NFL's established policy on domestic violence and other off-the-field transgressions by players.
Factors to Consider
Is Your Business Vulnerable to a Civil Rights Violation Complaint?Wed, 02/19/2014 - 11:10 — superadmin
Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 prohibits the creation of a hostile work environment based on the prohibited forms of discrimination, such as discrimination based on sex or race. To hold an employer liable for the harassment, the plaintiff must show that the work environment was so pervaded by discrimination that the terms of employment were altered. Isolated or trivial occurrences are not likely to be sufficient.
Are You A Great Leader? How Effective Are You as a Business Owner, Executive, Manager, Employee Or Even a Parent in Leading Those Closest to You?Wed, 02/19/2014 - 11:07 — superadmin
It is an honor to introduce my friend and colleague Dr. Tim Irwin's latest book, Impact: Great Leadership Changes Everything.
Dr. Irwin and I have worked together on behalf of common clients and collaborated on many projects together. Tim is one of the smartest people I know and has developed keen insights into the subject of leadership through his 25 years of experience and work with leaders of global companies.
Firing A Family Member Employee - Can You Fire A Family Member Employee and Still Keep the Family Together?Fri, 02/07/2014 - 11:41 — superadmin
One of the biggest challenges in managing a family-owned business is firing an underperforming family member. Ideally, all of the family members working in the business recognize and agree to the need for firing a family member. I have found in these situations that it is difficult to engage in a process that can be accomplished in a way that relationships are maintained and where everyone can still attend family functions in the future with no underlying ill will or bitterness remaining between family members.
The Winter of 2014 – Slip Sliding Away ... How Accumulations of Ice and Snow Affect Property Owners' Liabilities to Third PartiesThu, 01/30/2014 - 14:30 — superadmin
Under most states' premises liability laws, a landowner owes duty to use reasonable care to protect individuals from unreasonable risks of harm posed by dangerous conditions on the owner's land. This duty is breached when the owner knows or should know of a dangerous condition on the premises of which the third party is unaware and failed to fix the defect, guard against the defect or warn the third party of the defect.

Planning: It's Not About Where You Are, But Where You Are GoingWed, 09/25/2013 - 11:08 — superadmin
One of the challenges I often encounter in my practice, particularly in cottage succession planning and family business situations, is that clients tend to focus on how things work in the present. They assume that present methods of management, problem-solving, payment of expenses, use of the family cottage and how ownership interest would be transferred will work the same way in the future. That is a risky assumption.

"Everything down there is dead."
That's one stunning quote from Hawaii News Now's latest report about the devastating damage that's been done to the marine life off Honolulu's Sand Island by 233,000 gallons of molasses that were spilled into Honolulu harbor on Monday.

A German tourist in Hawaii who was attacked by a shark last week has died of her injuries, according to hospital officials in Maui. Jana Lutteropp, 20, lost her arm in the attack during a snorkeling trip last Wednesday. She is the first person to die from a shark attack in Hawaii in more than nine years.
After Lutteropp was attacked less than 100 yards from the coast at Palauea Beach, she was helped by Rick Moore, a California high school teacher who plunged into the surf to swim her back to shore.

GCSEs!! arrggggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
and this is just the mocks!
Robyn's are the first week in December.
She did her actual English GCSE last week and her Maths modular and her Chemistry modular is this Thursday.
I just wish she would see the importance of revision!
I'm more stressed than Robyn who is more interested in Facebook and MSN!
And there's me worrying about year 2 SATs.
James is given 2 weeks off for revision for the mocks his are in the new year. Looks like they are all different times depending on the school etc.

Ah GCSE's. Unfortunately Julie it gets worse. We are now in the process of choosing Zoe's options. One finishes and the other ones start.
Ah SATS , In 2007 we had year 2,6 and 9 SATS all at once.
Oh Brit I can't imagine what this feels like as a parent it must be an awful time.
My parents had 7 o levels between them and my Dad only had 2 of those so they were no flippin use , what is strange is that they are the focus of your life for so long up to the age of 16 yet by aged 20 I don't think I could remember which subjects I took let alone what grades I got
Ummmmm does rutting mean something different in British English then?

Dag Goering, veterinarian-photographer-conservationist, tells BHUMIKA K. that elephant trainers only need to be taught newer and humane methods to prevent cruelty to jumbos in captivity
A chance encounter with a newborn elephant and his mother in Jaipur welcomed Dr. Dag Goering, a Canadian veterinarian and photographer, into the vast world of elephants, turning him into a conservationist.
He started campaigning for the cause of elephants, and went on to set up Elephant Earth Initiative, involved in educating people about the magnificence of these animals and creating awareness about the kind of lives they lead when raised by people, supporting elephant welfare programmes the world over, including anti-poaching and elephant collaring projects.
Dag Goering's pictures were on display recently at Bangalore's Rangoli Metro Art Centre. Titled Elephant Enigma, the series of pictures was born out of his feelings that Dag says goes back to his first encounter. "In 2007, I came to Rajasthan, because I was interested in leaning about camel medicine. An elephant in captivity had given birth in Jaipur — something that hadn't occurred there in 70 years. So the mahouts were nervous and requested me and a veterinarian friend from Help In Suffering (Jaipur-based animal rescue organisation) to give the newborn elephant a check-up. Seeing a newborn elephant of course was enigmatic for me. But the adult elephant suddenly grabbed me by the wrist and looked me in the eye. It was unnerving, exhilarating and the elephant's eye had so much expression…" One of the pictures in the exhibition is a stark close up of an elephant's eye surrounded by skin crisscrossed with lines. "I came away from that experience wanting to work with elephants." The Initiative has done awareness programmes in North America, in Kochi and Bangalore in India, and is going next to Italy. "It sows the seed for people to get into activism," he says of their awareness programmes.
He and his author-wife Maria Coffey also started Hidden Places Travels that organises elephant trips and adventure tours that fund the Elephant Earth Initiative. The two organisations works in Laos, Vietnam, Thailand, Burma, Africa and Europe as well.
Dag is pretty much tuned into the kind of man-animal conflict in India and says that when he was in Bangalore in 2008 too, like his visit this time, newspapers were filled with news of elephants creating havoc on the city's periphery. "The problem has only become worse partly because India has an increasing population of both elephants and humans. As more land goes under cultivation, it's coming to this boiling point where there is a clash of human need and elephant habitat." But he points out that elephant experts in the country like Professor Raman Sukumar are advising the government well on this matter. India's reverence of elephants as Gods have helped in a large way in their conservation in the wild, he agrees. But the problem lies with captive elephants — "that reverence doesn't translate into how elephants here are kept in captivity. In Kerala, the situation of temple elephants is unacceptable," he stresses, in much visible distress.
One of the programmes his Initiative plans is to offer elephant handlers and mahouts better training and handling methods that are more humane. It will also mean less disease and disability for the elephants, and lesser costs for their caretakers.
"I'm a vet and I know what it takes to do such things in a humane way. We have been talking about this in India and there is an openness to such a programme in Tamil Nadu and Kerala," he says. Dag also stresses that mahouts are not cruel people. "They are often maligned and the problem is simply of lack of options and knowledge about how to treat elephants. It's more ignorance than cruelty."
They have recently completed a successful "target training" method in Thailand, much appreciated by mahouts too.
