FROM THE OFFICE OF GOV. BEVIN:
Gov. Bevin has declared a State of Emergency in KY, mobilizing resources for cities and counties in response to heavy rainfall. @KentuckyEM recommends monitoring weather over the weekend via weather radios and local media broadcasts. ----- www.kentucky.com/news/state/article201914274.html

This is the way of life here in Kentcuky. Every year.
This tragic train vs. auto accident occurred a few weeks ago and a young life was taken - he was only 19 years old. He apparently attempted to make a right hand turn crossing the tracks. From looking at the scene it appears the train pushed the car with such a force it went airborne and landed over a hundred feet into a deep ditch. My sincerest condolences to all involved. But there are *no* gates. The following photos depict the scene and are quite disturbing considering this loss of a promising young life could have and should have been prevented and was not. Please review the following photos.
There have been similar accidents at this same crossing in the past.
This is what is confusing to me:
East Blue Lick Road Add gates to existing flashing lights and bell system at CSX Railroad Crossing on East Blue Lick Road. (343 526X) Add to TIP as part of KIPDA #174 Various general rail/highway protection improvement program projects. Add FY2014 Construction $240,000 federal; RHPD funding
So WHERE ARE THE GATES? Better yet where is our $240,000 and the BIDS for a $50,000 job.

UPDATE: I was informed today June 7, 2018, gates have been installed at this crossing now - unsure how long ago they were installed, but they're up and hopefully functioning correctly. Thank you.

This crow issued an intruder alert this morning. Apparently there was a sparrow across the street perching on a higher pole and the crow was not amused. The crow took flight shortly after this photograph was taken and proceeded across a 4 lane highway to intercept the sparrow removing the sparrow from the higher pole. There was a mid-air battle - crow and sparrow did fly together for a few seconds however sparrow was much too quick for the crow and disappeared among a group of starlings. Crow is still looking for violators of his space. That is all this crow does - every day.
**********
Update - Today this crow was nowhere to be found. There was, however, a flock of starlings not only on the pole but along the wires here as well. Crow should know not to harass sparrows with starling friends :-)
Not sure whose gear this is but it's been sitting in this same spot for at least a week.
I'm sure with all the people who've walked by or worked near this stuff left behind someone surely would have looked into it. It was covered by the green tarp to the right at some point.. Note the three cigarette butts under the bench. They left themselves there.

Yet they do this for every "major venue" that comes to town, including the death of one of "their own".
Terra Crossing Blvd. & Old Henry Road, Louisville, Kentucky
Robin is a homeless woman in Louisville, Kentucky. (Age 68, according to her).. She was gainfully employed and had a home two years ago until her Mother whom she was caring for passed away. Her right leg became inflamed - she went to St. Mary's hospital. They amputated her leg. She did not have diabetes. She was denied disability by both her employer, Cafe Press, and the Social Security Administration disability office here in Louisville, Kentucky. She said she had an attorney who is "working on it". She states she had other items in a backpack that some kids had stolen. No cell phone.
This is next to a bus stop canopy where 3 individuals were sitting waiting for the bus.
She said prior to today Starbucks would not allow her inside - I did speak with Starbucks today and they stated she could go in while waiting for help from the Homeless Coalition of Louisville, who was notified. Starbucks (and their patrons) said they could not bring her any food.
Shiraz down the street offered a bottle of water but stated they would not let her in the store until they contacted the owner. I accepted the water for her and left.
McDonalds offered a fruit and yogurt parfait.
Smash Burgers manager gave $5 which we put toward some shampoo and deodorant and a Snickers bar from Walgreens (who gave us a discount) - these are what she'd said she needed at the moment.
Eastern Area Community Ministries gave the phone number for the Homeless Coalition although she states she's already been there. They offered to help her with food and additional resources but she had to get to their location. I could not fit Robin and her wheelchair in my car and it was a long way for Robin to wheel in the rain, uphill.
Matt Bevin, our Governor, is very proud of Kentucky. Not sure why. For shame, Mayor Fischer.
There were two other people in this area looking for help - one was a Veteran looking for work and had 2 kids at home, the other was a homeless man with a disabled son - they still had a car they were living in. I asked the Vet to keep an eye on Robin while I attempted to get her help - he said he would. I felt she was in very good hands - she was very appreciative of whatever help she received today. She was not there later in the afternoon.
Louisville's Homeless Outreach Team stated they would attempt to locate her - last contact was one year ago. They stated if they see her they would try to get her some McDonald's gift cards and a hygiene pack.
This corner has also been the favorite place for "The Lord's Kitchen Ministries" - www.thelordskitchen.com/ - that is where I'd spoken to a Veteran who was standing there - Richard Schuster - who'd stated he was also denied disability benefits. Richard said The Lord's Kitchen needed volunteers to help cook and serve at their facility.
As of today, December 18, 2018, I do not know Robin's status.

Louisville, Kentucky
The Kentucky Derby this year is Saturday, May 7th, so yes, things are getting busy around this area for the next few weeks.
Churchill Downs moved their headquarters to this location for a number of reasons - the majority of them being they have gotten into the casino and online gaming business as well - on their website click on *CDI Properties* to see their other interests in the gambling world - it's not just racing here in Kentucky anymore - we're "diversified" now - just in other states: www.churchilldownsincorporated.com/about-cdi/company-info

Gates leading to Ashford Stud, a division of Coolmore Stud based in Ireland, where the first Triple Crown Winner in 37 years, American Pharoah, is currently standing stud in Versailles, Kentucky. Tours to Ashford are $25 per person and are booked solid though visitors are not guaranteed a glimpse of this unusal "athletically gifted" horse owned by New Jersey's Ahmed Zayat. The stud fee for 2016 is $200,000.
Ashford Stud purchased the breeding rights to American Pharoah from Ahmed Zayat in late 2014 for a reported $13.8 million. American Pharoah went on to become the first racehorse in 37 years to win the American Triple Crown. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coolmore_Stud
Interestingly enough Ahmed Zayat filed for Chapter 11 Bankruptcy in Newark, New Jersey in 2010 - Zayat said the legal move was designed to protect his horse operation from efforts by Fifth Third Bank to have a receiver appointed to oversee Zayat Stables: www.bloodhorse.com/horse-racing/articles/144141/zayat-sta...
There is a massive cell tower on or adjacent to Ashford Stud's sprawling farm. I imagine American Pharoah's owner, trainers and Coolmore are aware of the effects of RFI on impaired fertility and have taken that into consideration when placing this Triple Crown Winner here prior to buying/selling breeding rights. I do know Coolmore in Ireland is now aware of the conundrum. www.bioinitiative.org/conclusions/
American Pharoah is now breeding mares 3xday, 7 days per week. It was reported this unusually muscular horse did pull a back muscle earlier and was given two weeks off from this non-stop breeding cycle but has been put back on this breeding cycle once again. The outcome of the fate of any live foals will not be known until 2020.
I have contacted the FCC to ascertain their recommended physical distance for cell towers to various structures, natural areas & preserves, livestock, etc.... No one I spoke with there was familiar with what those recommendations were - I spoke with an Allison who connected me w. OET - Office of Engineering and Technology 202-418-2470. I left a voice mail asking for this information on 1 June 2016 along with my phone number. Left a 2nd VM message on 15 June 2016 - gave my email address as well as my phone number yet again.

Nobody knows, they said:
Cell towers can cause arrythmias, neuropathy, nerve demyelination, behavioral changes, autism, interference w. medically implanted devices, etc...
(note the civilian version of the below document is "different") - the RFEF's (radio frequency electromagnetic fields) travel downward much like the letter "A" and outward dependent on the height of the tower, frequencies and the number of transmitters - yet this does not include satellite transmissions from DISH networks, unregistered, unregulated pole & roof transmitters & antennas, etc - and no one in Louisville (and many other municipalities) is inspecting, monitoring, regulating or knows what those standards are as many are hidden or camouflaged. Neither did the FCC when contacted. The recommended standards in the USA are much more lax than Europe's with no accountability or enforcement. Local Governments have zero input as to placement of these towers as of 2014 unless they conflict with certain criterion or the Water Tower in a previous photo (there is a tower attached to that which is directly atop a "protected natural area". Yet the average monetary rate to realtors, municipalities and land owners for hosting these towers averages thousands of dollars per month. www.steelintheair.com/new-cell-tower-leases.html
From: IEEE C95.1-2345™-2014
Military Workplaces--Force Health Protection Regarding Personnel Exposure to Electric, Magnetic, and Electromagnetic Fields, 0Hz to 300GHz
"4.2 DRLs for frequencies between 100 kHz and 3 GHz
The whole-body average (WBA) DRLs shown in Table 6 are based on the exposure response reported for
disruption of food-motivated behavior in laboratory animals. The behavioral effect threshold of 4 W/kg is
associated with a rise in core temperature during whole-body exposure of approximately 1 °C (de Lorge
[B8]). This temporary behavioral effect has been demonstrated to be the most sensitive, reproducible,
potentially adverse health effect across animal species and frequencies (IEEE Std C95.1™-2005, Annex
C2). Consistent with the approach used in the prior standards, a traditional safety factor of ten (10) has been
applied to the established adverse effect threshold value for such effects, yielding a DRL of 0.4 W/kg
averaged over the whole body for Zone 1. The Zone 0 ERLs incorporate an additional safety factor of 5.14
Whenever personnel may have access to an environment where the exposure may exceed the Zone 0 ERLs,
a personnel protection program shall be instituted to avoid exposure that exceeds the Zone 1 or Zone 2
ERLs. ".........
