Guns to Gardens: Louisville blacksmith shapes weapons into tools
SUMMARY: Craig Caviar, a lifelong blacksmith, creates artful metal works showcased in exhibitions like the one at the Lexington Public Library. He finds therapy in his Louisville forge and aims to continue his work as long as possible. Recently, he’s gained attention for making simple garden tools from surrendered guns through the “Guns to Gardens” initiative, inspired by Isaiah’s biblical verse on transforming weapons into instruments for peace. Since 2022, the initiative has safely taken nearly 100 guns out of circulation. Caviar hopes his pieces promote peace and responsible gun ownership, contributing to reducing gun violence in the community.

Lexington Fire Department on how to keep safe while cooking Thanksgiving dinner
SUMMARY: As Thanksgiving approaches, many prepare traditional meals, particularly turkey. Lexington Fire Department’s Battalion Chief Derek Robert offers safety tips for cooking, highlighting the dangers of frying turkey. It’s crucial to fry outdoors on a level surface and ensure the turkey is fully thawed, while maintaining a maximum temperature of 350°F. Indoors, he advises avoiding distractions and ensuring stove handles are out of reach of children. Thanksgiving poses a higher fire risk, so checking smoke detectors—either hardwired or battery-operated—is essential, with regular testing recommended. Overall, fire safety is a year-round effort to reduce incidents during the holiday.
Food is the heart of Thanksgiving, and people like to prepare it in many ways.

Judge blocks rule giving Ohio, Kentucky, West Virginia, Alabama foreign farm workers bargaining rights | Ohio
SUMMARY: A federal judge in Kentucky, Chief District Judge Danny Reeves, issued a preliminary injunction preventing the Biden Administration from enforcing a regulation that grants collective bargaining rights to migrant farm workers in Kentucky, Alabama, Ohio, and West Virginia. This ruling follows a similar judgment from Georgia affecting 17 states. Farmers argued that the new rule contradicts the National Labor Relations Act, as it attempts to create rights for H-2A visa holders without Congressional approval. Reeves criticized parts of the regulation as “arbitrary and capricious.” The injunction does not apply nationwide, leaving the rule intact in other states.
