There's a new crop of tiny fish swimming with the big guys in the tank at the Salato Center, which reopened for the season on March 1. The little guy got away safely, but he was clearly "of interest" to the bigger fish. Comments | Permalink

In David Coomer's presentation on Solid Waste Management, he spoke about the hazards on the job. He shared this slide of a news clipping which chronicled a cleanup he knew about from personal experience. It read, "JAMESTOWN. Grenade found during cleanup: The routine work of a statewide cleanup project turned dangerous this week when cleanup crews found explosives in a Russell County illegal dump. About noon Tuesday, workers found a live M-79 grenade as they cleared garbage from the dump, about 12 miles south of Jamestown. Trooper Larry Henderson of the Kentucky State Police Bomb Squad disarmed the device in about 10 minutes. "We don't get called in on those very often, thank goodness," said Henderson, who has worked with explosives for 26 years. state and local officials are cleaning up illegal dumps along roads in Estill, Russell, Lawrence, Adair and Letcher counties as part of PRIDE Cleanup Week, which will run through Saturday. -- COMPILED FROM STAFF, WIRE REPORTS."
