- 0:00Speaker 1: Now we turn to the Breatht Advocate to read news
- 0:03from Jackson and Breathett County. Your reader to day is Matt.
- 0:07We will begin with the addition dated January twenty first,
- 0:10twenty twenty six, which has been donated to RADIOI by
- 0:13the publisher as a reminder. Radio I is a reading
- 0:17service intended for people who are blind or have other
- 0:20disabilities that make it difficult to read printed material. On
- 0:24the front page, new sewer plant funding nearing reality, city
- 0:29purchases new fire truck. The Jackson City Council recently met
- 0:34and voted to purchase a new fire truck and to
- 0:37announce that nearly eleven million dollars is expected from disaster
- 0:41funding to complete the funds needed to construct a new
- 0:44sewer plant. Mayor Laura Thompson opened the meeting by asking
- 0:49the City Council to add an agenda item concerning the
- 0:52approval of a letter of condition to complete the funding
- 0:55of a new sewer plant. She stated she had recently
- 0:58met with Rural Development meant RD and they will be
- 1:02providing one point two million dollars from twenty twenty two
- 1:05disaster money and over nine million from a new rural
- 1:08water program for the construction of the facility. The minutes
- 1:12were then approved by the council, followed by the Treasurer's report.
- 1:17Thomas informed the council that the old playground at the
- 1:19park was demolished and contractors are awaiting warm weather to
- 1:23install new playground equipment. Collection of past property taxes were discussed.
- 1:29City Attorney Bruce Harold explained that the delinquent property tax
- 1:32bills could be sold they make. The mayor then followed
- 1:36up by saying that the bills can be sold back
- 1:38to twenty fifteen, similar to the county's process. We just
- 1:43want everyone to be treated fairly and we're not trying
- 1:46to take anyone's property, said the mayor. Harold said he
- 1:49would continue to work on a plan for the council
- 1:51to discuss the collections in a future meeting. The second
- 1:55reading and adoption of the AEP five year Franchise Agreement
- 1:59was then addressed. It was approved unanimously by the council.
- 2:05An amended ordinance to pay Nesbit Engineering for work completed
- 2:09on the River North project for the renovated medical clinic
- 2:11building where doctor Murkett's office was located, passed unanimously. Fire
- 2:17Chief Chase Deaton then addressed the council asking them to
- 2:20purchase a ladder truck. Only one bid was received in
- 2:23the amount of two million, two hundred thirty one thousand,
- 2:26seven hundred eighty eight dollars, according to Deeton. In Deeton's proposal,
- 2:31he suggests selling both trucks the department has that are
- 2:34nearing their twenty plus years of life. Deton said that
- 2:37three hundred fifty thousand dollars is expected to be the
- 2:40amount the two trucks are sold for. The chief said
- 2:44the department also has three hundred thirty thousand dollars in
- 2:47the Fire Department reserve account and is expected to have
- 2:50another four hundred to five hundred thousand dollars in the
- 2:53reserve account when the truck is delivered in approximately three years.
- 2:57The remainder will be applied for in grants or dad
- 3:00alone may be needed in the amount of one point
- 3:02two million dollars. Chief Deaton said he wasn't asking for
- 3:06the council to pay it out of the general fund,
- 3:09but the Fire Department's reserve fund. Councilman Tommy Noble made
- 3:13a motion to accept the bid submitted to purchase the
- 3:16new truck. Councilman Steve Macintosh asked how many buildings would
- 3:21the current truck be able to serve if the proposed
- 3:24truck funding wasn't approved. To me, that's a lot of
- 3:27money to spend to possibly put out a building that's
- 3:30worth one hundred thousand dollars, said Macintosh. Deedon said if
- 3:34a building catches fire, a whole city block could catch fire.
- 3:38Would a truck this size be able to access all streets?
- 3:41Asked Macintosh. Deedon answered by stating the new truck can
- 3:45maneuver better. I'm not against a new fire truck, I'm
- 3:48against the debt, said Macintosh. Macintosh said he was concerned
- 3:52that the department is still going to need equipment between
- 3:55now and the delivery date, and question how the equipment
- 3:58will be purchased If there was a serve account funds
- 4:00are being used. In seven years, over a million dollars
- 4:04of equipment has been purchased by Grant's, said Deton. The
- 4:08motion passed, with Macintosh abstaining, saying he didn't want the
- 4:12city in debt. Councilwoman Renee Haddocks asked that the fire
- 4:16department seek grants so no debt is incurred. The waste
- 4:20water plant was then discussed. The mayor explained that funding
- 4:24for the new facility will come from the following c
- 4:27D B G grant thirteen million, r D twenty twenty two,
- 4:31flood funding in the amount of one point two million,
- 4:34and other disaster funding in the amount of nine point
- 4:37six million. It may be years construction, but the funding
- 4:41is getting lined up, said Thomas. The letter of conditions
- 4:45was then approved. The meeting lasted approximately one hour and
- 4:48fifteen minutes before adjourning. Candidates draw ballot positions. On Thursday,
- 4:56January fifteenth, candidates for the May primary election may met

- 7:33Leadership Academy. Doctor Amanda Spencer Barnes, a faculty member at
- 7:38Hazard Community and Technical College HCTC, is one of twenty
- 7:42three cohort members in the Kentucky Council on post Secondary
- 7:46Educations CPS Faculty Leadership Academy for the twenty five twenty
- 7:51six academic year. I'm always looking for ways to broaden
- 7:54my leadership skills at the local system in statewide levels,
- 7:58Doctor Spencer Barnes said, I pride myself on being a
- 8:02lifelong learner. Growing personally and professionally helps me become a
- 8:06better faculty member in hopes of one day becoming a
- 8:08leader at HCTC. According to Chief Academic Officer Doctor Ellis Strong,
- 8:14the program aligns with hctc's efforts to develop its own talent.
- 8:19Programs like this enable us to invest in and develop
- 8:21our own leaders, which strength strengthens the roots of our
- 8:25community and ensures its future thrives from within. Doctor Strong said,
- 8:30providing access to leadership programs for our employees enables us
- 8:34to plan the college's future by developing leaders within. It
- 8:38is critical for HCTC to develop its own leaders as
- 8:42this allows us to sustain momentum as we progress. Doctor
- 8:46Spencer Barnes explained that the Academy has a unique role
- 8:49in addressing the most pressing issues facing higher education across Kentucky.
- 8:54I am very excited for this opportunity to further develop
- 8:57my leadership abilities while learning to navigate the issues in
- 9:01higher education across the state, the system, and in our
- 9:04local level. She said. She hopes to expand her knowledge
- 9:07of leadership, build a strong peer network, and deepen her
- 9:11understanding of higher education governance from this experience, I hope
- 9:17to expand my knowledge about leadership, build a network of
- 9:21peers and mentors that I can interact with on a
- 9:23regular basis, increase my knowledge of the governance of post
- 9:27secondary education at all levels, and delve deeper into how
- 9:30CPE helps to ensure that each college and university is
- 9:34providing academic quality and student success. She said. While she
- 9:39values the content, she also highlights the personal connections the
- 9:42program makes possible. In addition to learning about leadership, I
- 9:47look forward to the network that this academy will provide,
- 9:50Doctor Spencerborne said, I have already met some amazing individuals
- 9:54from CPE as well as other colleges and universities. Building
- 9:59relationships with per and mentors is one of the best
- 10:01ways to grow your leadership skills. Her time in the
- 10:05classroom gives her a unique lens through which to apply
- 10:08those lessons. Gaining any kind of knowledge in any area
- 10:12can always be brought back to the classroom and how
- 10:15you build your classes and run your classrooms, she explained.
- 10:19Networking with faculty from other colleges and universities is one
- 10:22of the best ways for faculty to learn new ideas
- 10:25for teaching. Becoming a better leader can help you become
- 10:29a better faculty member and become a better advocate for
- 10:32students at the local, system and state levels. For doctor
- 10:36Spencer Barnes, it all comes back to students and the
- 10:39colleagues who make HCTC feel like home. The students are
- 10:43my number one reason for becoming a faculty member. Getting
- 10:47to work with students in so many different capacities as
- 10:49very rewarding, she said. In addition to the students, working
- 10:53with a team of faculty, staff and administrators at HCTC
- 10:56provides an exceptional workforce where going to work really does
- 11:01feel like going to work. Every One is supportive, kind
- 11:06and caring. It really is like having a second family.
- 11:10She also had a word of encouragement for others considering
- 11:12a teaching career. Becoming a faculty member is one of
- 11:15the most rewarding experiences of my career so far. It's
- 11:19hard to explain the pride and joy I feel when
- 11:21they when they walk across the stage at graduation and
- 11:24get to celebrate that moment with their families, she said.
- 11:27Then when I see them on social media and they
- 11:29have got on to earn bachelor's, master's, and doctoral degrees
- 11:33and then work in our community that we serve, that
- 11:35pride just grows even more. To me. This is what
- 11:38being a faculty member is all about. KSP announces traffic

- 14:20we have our weekly game of Guess who I. Will
- 14:23read the prompt twice, once now and once at the
- 14:26end of this recording before giving the answer. Stay tuned
- 14:29until the end to see if you got it right.
- 14:32Guess who I Am? An actor born in California on
- 14:36February twelfth, nineteen sixty eight. I grew up on a
- 14:39ranch with my actor father. I have had prominent movie roles,
- 14:43including a jock on a nineteen eighties cult hit and
- 14:46a larger than life villain in a mega Marvel series.
- 14:51As we honor our fathers, other fatherlike figures come to mind,
- 14:55as well by Bob Deaton. As we progress through our
- 14:59most formative years, almost everyone comes in contact with an
- 15:03individual that had a lasting impact in their development. Longtime
- 15:07coach Farcio Woods played this role for hundreds of basketball
- 15:11players as the coach of Brethet High School from around
- 15:14nineteen fifty two to nineteen sixty seven. He not only
- 15:18developed them into good basketball players, he monitored their academic progress,
- 15:23their personal conduct, health practices, and strictly disciplined and counseled
- 15:27them throughout their high school years. Your writers and the
- 15:30four members of this family, JP, a long assistant under Farsi,
- 15:35were closely associated with him virtually the entire fourteen years
- 15:39he was at breath at high school. We, as well
- 15:42as virtually everyone else who was associated with him, consider
- 15:45him to be one of the most dedicated, hard working,
- 15:49and caring individuals we've ever known. This belies the stern, autocratic, confrontational,
- 15:55and seemingly belligerent demeanor portrayed during practice and hotly contested
- 15:59basket ketball games. He was instead considerate, generous, compassionate, and
- 16:05understanding in his off court relationships. He was indeed a
- 16:09father figure to those who often lived under the same
- 16:12roof with him and his lovely wife, Libby. During Farse's
- 16:17early years at Breathet, a few parents owned automobiles. The
- 16:22roads were poor. Breathett was a large county, and many
- 16:26players were unable to participate because of transportation problems. The
- 16:30Breathatt County Board of Education solved this problem by providing
- 16:33a house for Coach Woods and the members of his
- 16:36team who had this transportation problem. His teams, in fact
- 16:39became a close knit family, living under the same roof
- 16:43during the long basketball season. During this period, high school
- 16:47students were only required to get sixteen credits to graduate
- 16:50from high school. The school was set up on six
- 16:53period days. There were only four classes with a two
- 16:56period study hall. Basketball players were allowed to practice during
- 17:00school time. Therefore, they used their two study halls for
- 17:03basketball practice. Basketball practice began promptly at one fifteen pm
- 17:09each day. Under Coach Woods, this two hour practice period
- 17:13was deemed insufficient during the preseason period, he held additional
- 17:18practices two or three days a week from six thirty
- 17:21to nine pm. Many of the players, as previously stated,
- 17:25had to stay overnight with Coach Woods and Libby. After
- 17:28school meals were prepared for those players in the high
- 17:31school cafeteria. Upon completion of those long practice sessions, laps
- 17:36around the gym and free throw practice were required. The
- 17:40number of laps required dependent on how well the coach
- 17:44felt practice had gone. For those players who stayed overnight,
- 17:48there was a short study period before bedtime at ten pm,
- 17:52usually at bedtime, the players were so exhausted that the
- 17:55bed indeed looked inviting. However, this was not always the
- 17:59Caseccasionally the players would become so loud and unruly Coach
- 18:03Woods would enter their quarters and order them to get
- 18:05dressed for more laps down at the gym. There, in
- 18:08the semi darkness, under the dim yellow glow of the
- 18:11large temple's diary clock. The prayer the players would run
- 18:15until Coach Woods, who sat in a chair, felt they
- 18:18would be too exhausted to be any further trouble. On
- 18:22a few occasions, your rider avoided those laps by hiding
- 18:25behind the door as the coach entered the room. However,
- 18:28for those who consistently had a problem setting in for
- 18:30the night, Coach Woods would quarantine them in his living room,
- 18:34which was adjacent to his in Libby's bedroom. Unfortunately, your
- 18:38writer had to sleep there more than his share. On cold,
- 18:41snowy winter days or weeks when school was not in session,
- 18:45Farcey Woods often traveled to the far reaches of Breathett
- 18:49County over treacherous ice and snow covered roads to round
- 18:52up enough players to conduct basketball practices. Once collected, they
- 18:56would have two a day practices until school was once
- 18:59again in Coachwood's believed rules were made to be adhered to,
- 19:04not to be broken. Rule infractions often resulted in hundreds
- 19:08of laps around the gym. For example, drinking fluids of
- 19:11any kind during practice or during a game was strictly prohibited.
- 19:15My friend Larry Back and Years Truly were convicted of
- 19:19the serious violation at Wolfe County one cold night. The
- 19:22next day we had to run laps from one fifteen
- 19:25until three p m. Losing a game was indeed a
- 19:29sad and tragic occasion. It often meant double practice sessions,
- 19:33extra laps, salty endowed language, and reprimands for our shortcomings.
- 19:39Road losses were particularly unpleasant. It meant a long, silent
- 19:43bus ride home, only broken occasionally by Coach Wood's deeply
- 19:46felt lamentations concerning our poor effort and performance. However, when
- 19:51or lose, Coach would give each player fifty cents to
- 19:54spend at White Flash restaurant before bedtime, which stayed open
- 19:58twenty four hours a day. In conclusion, only a few
- 20:01of the several hundred players that played over that fourteen
- 20:04year period chose to quit the team. Giving testament to
- 20:08the high guard they had for Coach Woods and his
- 20:11near military type training. Now those players are suffering the
- 20:15destructive ravages of time and aging, which has his own
- 20:18stories and experiences of that long ago era of their youth,
- 20:22when this dedicated coach molded rough and often clumsy country
- 20:26boys into disciplined and smoothly functioning teams that won three
- 20:31hundred eighty one games in a region that was considered
- 20:34by many to be the toughest in the state. Life
- 20:37on the Old Dirt Road by Bobby Thorpe school days
- 20:42Growing up in the school days, good old golden rule
- 20:45days on the Dirt Road, was much different than it
- 20:48is now. We got up out of bed and got
- 20:50ready for school before daylight. Very few kids were driven
- 20:53to school by their parents, but instead rode the school buses.
- 20:57We got to school and spent the entire day in
- 20:59one class gassroom, where we learned all of our subjects.
- 21:03We ate breakfast together and no one complained about the food.
- 21:06You had paper cups of milk, and occasionally chocolate milk
- 21:09was available. We also had plastic cups of juices. For lunch.
- 21:13We enjoyed pizza, soup, beans, corn bread, taters, sauer kraut
- 21:18and weeners, greens, salmon patties, chili yeast rolls, and many
- 21:22other delicious choices. We also had text books and computers.
- 21:26Cell phones weren't invented at the time. We sat in
- 21:29the one piece desk and seat which was not padded,
- 21:32so they weren't very comfortable. Throughout the day, we would
- 21:35work math and other assignments on the big chalkboard on
- 21:38the wall, and a line template had created was created
- 21:41with a contraption that held three pieces of chalk that
- 21:44would make the chalkboard lined. One of the highlights of
- 21:47the day was getting chosen by the teacher to take
- 21:49the chalkboard erasers outside to slap together to get the
- 21:52chalk dust out of them. We also watched the Electric
- 21:55company educational programs in the pits located between class rooms.
- 22:00The janitors would occasionally allow students who were well behaved
- 22:03to help dust and mop the hallways. When a student
- 22:06would misbehave or not have their homework completed, they would
- 22:09suffer the wrath of a wooden paddle or a ruler
- 22:12to the palm of the hand. We also purchased pencils
- 22:15and paper from the little Store in l p. J.
- 22:18School and once in Middeland High School, pencil and paper
- 22:21vending machines were available to purchase school supplies. In high school,
- 22:26we took typing classes on the on the typewriters known
- 22:29as the Loyal Royals. When my parents and grandparents went
- 22:33to school, they said they would walk from their homes
- 22:36to school for miles in good or bad weather. They
- 22:39used slate to write on and carried their own lunches.
- 22:42They used an outhouse for bathrooms and drew water to
- 22:45drink and to wash their hands from a dug well.
- 22:48These are great memories from life on the old dirt road.
- 22:52On the Music Trail with Kathy by Kathy bays Alberts.
- 22:56The next concert my son and I attended, Compliments of
- 22:59a Dear Friend as free tickets, was to see Diamond
- 23:02Rio at the Mountain Arts Center the MAC at Prestonburg,
- 23:05Kentucky on December eighteenth, twenty twenty five. Since this is
- 23:09another group that accompanied so much, this will be another
- 23:13multi column. First, let me do a little about the
- 23:16young lady that opened for them. Her name is Kayleie Rose.
- 23:20Her full name is Kaylee Rosenberg, and she shortened her
- 23:23name for stage purposes. She's from Saint Augustine, Florida. She's
- 23:28an independent artist known for her unique blend of pop
- 23:30and country music, with millions of streams and a significant
- 23:34social media following. She does such songs as Modern Dancing,
- 23:38Nobody's Sweetheart, and Love Makes You Blind. She gained significant
- 23:43traction through social media content, which led to features on
- 23:46Spotify's playlists and industry recognition. She opened for Morgan Wallen
- 23:51and others, and of course Diamond Rio Now. Beginning with
- 23:55Diamond Rio. Who They Were and Who They Are Now.
- 23:58They were formed in nineteen eighty two as an attraction
- 24:01for the opry Land USA theme park in Nashville, and
- 24:05were originally known as the Grizzly river Boys and then
- 24:08the Tennessee river Boys. They were originally founded by the
- 24:11vocalist Matt Davenport, Danny Gregg, and ty Herndon. Ty Herndon
- 24:16became a solo artist in the mid nineteen nineties. They
- 24:20signed with Arista Nashville in nineteen ninety one and debuted
- 24:23their single Meet in the Middle. This made them the
- 24:26first band ever to send a debut single to the
- 24:30number one on the Billboard charts. I'll end it there
- 24:32and continue next week with more of Diamond Rio on
- 24:35the music trail. So be it by pastor Naomi. Obedience
- 24:41to God always leads to life. Have you already hit
- 24:45a snag in keeping a new Year's resolution or two?
- 24:48And it's only a little past the middle of the
- 24:51month as it caused you to feel discouraged and defeated again?
- 24:54Were they things you felt God wanted you to do?
- 24:57Or was it some fad or something others do or expect.
- 25:00Here's a list of simple things you can do alone
- 25:03to help you know God better. These are found in
- 25:06scripture and will bless you in your walk with the Lord.
