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.

Western Kentucky University students survive major fall off Lake Cumberland cliff
SUMMARY: Two Western Kentucky University students survived a fall from a Cliff at Lake Cumberland, thanks to a passerby and swift rescue efforts. The incident occurred early Sunday morning amidst thick fog, which initially obscured the students’ cries for help. Fisherman Josh Knight heard repeated pleas and discovered a young man clinging to a tree after falling about 150 feet. He called 911, and Russell County search and rescue teams found a second student, unconscious after falling between 200 and 250 feet. They set up a rope system for the victims’ retrieval; one was airlifted in critical condition, while the other sustained injuries. Both are now recovering.
