KDVA announces Team Kentucky Works Now Job Board

From James Hensley
Kentucky Department of Veterans Affairs

Frankfort, KY - We're excited to introduce a new way to connect with employment opportunities across Kentucky: The Team Kentucky Works Now Job Board!

The job board is a virtual platform designed to connect veterans, transitioning service members, their families, and other citizens of the Commonwealth who are seeking employment, with immediate-fill, seasonal, temporary, and other urgent hiring opportunities. The focus is on helping individuals who need work and a paycheck now, not necessarily long-term career positions and while that is always our goal, we do remain realistic to our approach. Our current Team Kentucky Job Fair is the best resource for reaching the goal of long-term careers.

The aim of the job board is to answer a consistent need we saw, which the job fair could not meet. The job board was created to give job seekers access to opportunities anytime, not just during our monthly Team Kentucky Virtual Job Fairs. Employers can post openings for immediate hire, temporary and seasonal positions, internships, and other current workforce needs, giving job seekers another way to connect with employers who are actively looking for candidates.

Football: You Looking for Beef? Will Stein is 100% Angus

By Ryan Hoots
Sports Director, UntdWeStnd.com

Lexington, KY - Well, that escalated quickly.

Just a mere seven days ago Kentucky walked into their home locker room at Kroger Field after taking thumping from the Tide. THIRTY TWO unanswered points in the Second Half of a nationally televised game that was (supposed) to be Will Stein's coming out party left a lot of BBN (myself included) feeling as if we might be in for yet another long football season.

It presented the first-year coach with his real test. Not in the playbook, not recruiting, not even a press conference. The test was one question, and that is, "What is your team going to do after such a tough defeat?" Apparently, the answer is to go to one of the rowdiest environments in all of college football and knock off the #9 ranked Texas A&M Aggies at Kyle Field.

Bumblebees solve puzzle no one taught them

A challenge long thought to separate humans and a few clever vertebrates from the rest of the animal kingdom has a new and unlikely contender: the bumblebee.

According to a study published in the journal Science in June 2026, researchers in Finland gave buff-tailed bumblebees a problem they would never meet in nature. A sugary artificial flower sat just out of reach, and a small ball lay nearby.

Sept 20-26 is National Child Passenger Safety Week

From Marla Marrs

Frankfort, KY - To help keep all children on Kentucky roadways safe, Team Kentucky is joining other states across the nation for Child Passenger Safety Week, September 20-26, 2026, to remind drivers traveling with children to check child seats' height and weight requirements for a safe and secure ride.

"Safety should always be the priority on the road, especially when it comes to our kids," said Gov. Andy Beshear. "Knowing your child seat's height and weight limits and making sure children are secured can make all the difference in keeping them safe."

Motor vehicle crashes are a leading cause of death for children ages 1 to 13, and research from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) shows that in 39% of child fatalities in 2024 the victims were unrestrained. NHTSA also reports that in passenger cars, car seats reduce the risk of fatal injury by 71% for infants and 54% for toddlers ages 1 to 4; and a reduction of 58% for infants and 59% for toddlers for light trucks.

For guidance on choosing and properly installing a child safety seat, Kentucky's child passenger safety laws and resources for finding a certified child passenger safety technician, visit the Kentucky Office of Highway Safety's Child Passenger Safety webpage.

Football: Indians fall to Scotties, host Larue on Fri

By Trey Stephens, Staff Writer

On Friday, September 18, 2026 the Adair County Indians Varsity Football team suffered their first loss of the season, at the hands of the Glasgow Scotties, 42-7 on the road.

The Tribe went into the game knowing that Glasgow would be a challenge, and the Scotties proved to be exactly that. The Indians offense struggled to move all night. The passing game was 6 for 23 through the air for just 56 yards and an interception. The ground game wasn't much better, with Callum Darnell posting 14 carries for 70 yards and the Tribe's lone touchdown, followed by Braxton McKinney who had seven carries for 51 yards.

The only Indian to be credited for more than one reception on the evening was Callum Darnell, who had three receptions for 37 yards. Darnell also led the Indians defense in tackling, posting a team leading nine tackles. Tristan Mullins who posted eight, and Adair County's lone takeaway with an interception. Other defensive contributors included Parker Jessie who had seven tackles, Brody Karnes with five, and Beckham Kingrey, who also had five. On special teams, Matthew MeJean was one for one on point after attempts (PATs) and had three punts for a combined 88 yards, one of which was downed inside the 20.

The Scotties offense was able to have almost anything it wanted on the night, with the Glasgow ground game averaging some nine yards a carry, while completing on over 85% of their passes.

With regular season halfway done, the Tribe's current 4-1 record is certainly high marks against this team's expectations, but the season is far from finished. The Indians will look to put this game in the rear view, shifting their focus to the LaRue County Hawks (5-0), who roll into Columbia on Friday night hot off a 41-14 win over Butler County.

Phillip Coffey - Rhythm

By Phillip Coffey
Swirl off those unwelcoming, sad blues
Put on those soft leather dancing shoes.
Listen to the creatures - so small and some
Large as they welcome a new day of breath-taking cues.

The rhythm of all Gods creatures in harmony
With the melodies of seasons of tradition
Heard through millennia of our humble species
Sup up the levity - A lifetime of memories giving.

Narda Tate: A Matter of Perspective

By Narda Tate

Once upon a time, in a state that shall remain anonymous just in case the statute of limitations on stupidity has not expired, I was involved - no, I caused - what could have been a fatal incident on the roadway. Thankfully, we all survived. But let me explain. I want you to know the truth, not the truth as known by the other party.

Being raised in the southern part of Miami, Florida, I was exposed to a lot of bright, direct sunshine. This, in turn, gave me cataracts at a very young age. After my first surgery, I was delighted with being able to see again. However, after just a couple of years, the cataract in my other eye developed quite nicely and the lens tissue in the already corrected eye started growing back and was covering my vision again. It wasn't too long before I was too blind to see and voluntarily gave up driving until I could have more surgery.

The fateful day came when we arrived at church for a music rehearsal and the music was not with us. It was back home. It wasn't a very far distance from church to house and knowing that I shouldn't, I still volunteered to brave the driving world and retrieve the recalcitrant papers.

I only had to go down one road, cross 2 lanes of oncoming traffic, regroup in the median and cross 2 more lanes and I would be on our road and almost there. This much, I accomplished safely. It was the journey back that caused the problem!

No gentle breeze here

By Kathy Parker

While downtown Columbia received a gentle breeze and light rain Friday evening, the Holmes Bend area around Robertson Road received either ferocious straight line winds or a small tornado.

We were sitting on the porch during a good summer shower as the sun was setting when we heard a roar coming from the west. Normally I would have gone to the basement but it came so fast and furious I didn't have time to go down the outside back stairs. We thought the cabin was gone, with us in it.

When it finally slowed down at dark, this was left. We lost 2 giant trees, patio furniture strewn, and tree tops on neighbor's house. There was no warning and radar showed a light green space over our location. Rain gauge only showed .75 of an inch, but the torrential rain was all sideways. We are blessed we didn't have more damage. Johnny Vaughn said he has never seen or heard anything like it.
