| Huffington Post: Pulaski County Library: Conservative Group Tries To Disband District Over Tax Hike Posted: 20 Nov 2012 11:07 AM PST A group of Tea Party sympathizers in Pulaski County, Ky., is trying to shut down the county library system's special taxing district over a tax hike, a move opponents say could close down the entire library system in the county. The group aims to shutter the Pulaski County library's special taxing district after the district increased taxes by $1 over the last year, said Barbara Sanders, who is organizing a petition drive for the cause. The petitioners want a new taxing district formed under the county's fiscal court, Sanders said, which would allow for increased oversight and potentially decreased taxes. However, library officials in Pulaski County said that Kentucky state law could trigger the closure of the entire library system and the sale of all its assets if the new district is formed. Charlotte Keeney, the county library director, said that according to her research, the assets of the current taxing district -- including buildings, books and furniture -- would have to be sold if the district is absolved, effectively closing the library system in the largely rural county of 60,000.

With Kelly And Michael" Tuesday and was already reminiscing about filming the scene with the vice president. On last week's "Parks & Rec," Leslie's fiance Ben (Adam Scott) surprised her with an opportunity to meet her political idol and celebrity crush. Hilarity and an awkward embrace ensued. Poehler reported that Biden handled the uncomfortable scene like a pro. "Well it was really fun, I got to like lean in to go kiss him. I think he's used to crazy people because he was just like, 'Mhmm mhmm mhmm.'" Read More... More on Amy Poehler
