…just another random person's thoughts & digressions.
Haskall and Dinah Risner, of Harrison County, were arrested on Friday after KSP searched their farm, discovering horses that were malnourished, and did not have adequate food, water or medical care. The horses were not confiscated.
I haven’t done much blogging here in a while. I’ve been fairly busy over the past few weeks. We had student loan overage money come in, and I’ve been busy catching up on a number of our back debts, and deciding what portions of those funds could be spent on the family for winter clothes, and such. And now, one week later, all the money is gone, and we are back on track (well, sorta).
Doesn’t seem like much, but it was enough to take my attention away from my blog.
I’ve missed quite a bit of CoffeeBreak, and have almost lost interest in the show. This morning’s guest is supposed to be speaking about the Veteran’s Day celebration this weekend. That reminds me–I need to do something for mom’s birthday.
As part of Winkle’s toying around with the WCYN website, he has added a “question of the week”–a weekly poll, where listeners/viewers of the site can provide input. This week’s question is:
What is the most important issue that needs to be addressed by the leaders of Cynthiana & Harrison County?
With 7 votes, (as of 7:29am this date) 57% say New Jobs, and 43% say the Recreation Park.
I’m part of the majority–I feel we need to do something about the job market, and bring more business and industry to Cynthiana.
I also hadn’t been able to make a post last week of news in the Democrat, for their site as down, and I’m not wasting 50¢ on a stack of advertisements. I need to check back at their site, and see if it’s back up.
Well, I believe that’s it for now. Think I’ll get back to housework.
Frozen Pizza Recalled For E. Coli
General Mills says it’s recalling almost five million frozen pizzas sold under the Totino’s and Jeno’s label because of possible E. coli contamination.
An anonymous reader writes “Seagate has agreed to settle a lawsuit that alleges that the company mislead customers by selling them hard disk drives with less capacity than the company advertised. The suit states that Seagate’s use of the decimal definition of the storage capacity term “gigabyte” was misleading and inaccurate: whereby 1GB = 1 billion bytes. In actuality, 1GB = 1,073,741,824 bytes — a difference of approximately 7% from Seagate’s figures. Seagate is saying it will offer a cash refund or free backup and recovery software.”
