Type in a word or phrase to search:

The Commonwealth of Kentucky (IPA /k?n't?ki/) is a state located in the East Central United States of America. Kentucky is normally included in the group of Southern states (in particular the Upland South), but it is sometimes included, geographically and culturally, in the Midwest.[3][4] Kentucky is one of four U.S. states to be officially known as a commonwealth. Originally a part of Virginia, in 1792 it became the 15th state to join the Union. Kentucky is the 37th largest state in terms of land area, and ranks 26th in population.

Kentucky is known as the "Bluegrass State", a nickname based on the fact that bluegrass is present in many of the lawns and pastures throughout the state. It is a land with diverse environments and abundant resources, including the world's longest cave system, the greatest length of navigable waterways and streams in the Lower 48 states, and the two largest man-made lakes east of the Mississippi River. It is also home to the highest per capita number of deer and turkey in the United States, and the nation's most productive coalfield. Kentucky is also known for thoroughbred horses, horse racing, bourbon distilleries, bluegrass music, automobile manufacturing, tobacco, and college basketball.

The origin of Kentucky's name (variously spelled Cane-tuck-ee, Cantucky, Kain-tuck-ee, and Kentuckee before its modern spelling was accepted)[5] has never been definitively identified, though some theories have been debunked. For example, Kentucky's name does not come from the combination of "cane" and "turkey"; and though it is the most popular belief, it is unlikely to mean "dark and bloody ground", because it does not occur with that meaning in any known Native American language.[6] The most likely etymology is that it comes from an Iroquoian word for "meadow" or "prairie"[7][8] (c.f. Mohawk kenhtàke, Seneca këhta’keh).[9] Other possibilities also exist the suggestion of early Kentucky pioneer George Rogers Clark that the name means "the river of blood",[5] a Wyandot name meaning "land of tomorrow", a Shawnee term possibly referring to the head of a river,[10] or an Algonquian word for a river bottom.[6]

Kentucky borders states of both the Midwest and the Southeast. West Virginia lies to the east, Virginia to the southeast, Tennessee to the south, Missouri to the west, Illinois and Indiana to the northwest, and Ohio to the north and northeast. Kentucky's northern border is formed by the Ohio River and its western border by the Mississippi River; however, the official border is based on the courses of the rivers as they existed when Kentucky became a state in 1792. In several places, the border does not follow the current course of the appropriate river. Northbound travelers on US 41 from Henderson, upon crossing the Ohio River, will find themselves still in Kentucky until they travel about a half-mile (800 m) farther north. A horse racing track, Ellis Park, is located in this small piece of Kentucky. Waterworks Road is part of the only land border between Indiana and Kentucky. [1]

1. The History And Style of Bar-B-Que
October 13, 2008

Barbeque, in the southern and Midwest parts of the United States, consists of slow-cooking meat over indirect heat. Chicken, beef, pork, sausage, ham, and ribs can all be barbequed – even mutton is sometimes barbequed, at least in Kentucky. With so many ways to make so many dishes, the perfect way to make barbequed meat can be a regional “bone” of contention. In Memphis, Tennessee, barbeque is almost a religion. Barbeque ribs – most often pork, are cooked for long hours, until the meat is so tender that it is ready to fall off the bone. If you want to know more visit us at www.cooking-ch... (read more)

2. Thoroughbred Horse Racing
October 08, 2008

Thoroughbred Horse Racing Thoroughbred horse racing is something that some of us have are familiar with, mainly because of the three biggest Thoroughbred horse races shown on TV each year. These three are the Preakness, the Belmont Stakes and the Kentucky Derby, known as the Thoroughbred Triple Crown. All three of the Triple Crown races are run on a flat dirt track. The horses involved in these races tend to pace themselves during most of the race. They save that final surge of power for the very end, the grand finish! There are even a few horses that are so incredibly fast that the... (read more)

3. Getting Away from it All
September 03, 2008

There is a lesser-known small island in the North Atlantic called Iceland where you can still get away from it all and experience nature in a near pristine state. That is just what I needed. Iceland is a country roughly the size of Kentucky but with a lot fewer people. It is located a little below the Arctic Circle roughly between Greenland and the United Kingdom and about a 5-hour flight from the East coast of the US. It has a population of just over three hundred thousand people which means that the population density is very low. Population numbers and geography aside, Iceland... (read more)

4. Legendary Whiskey Cocktails
August 20, 2008

Sazerac To make a Sazerac you will need two bottom heavy, 3 ½ ounce bar glasses. Fill one with cracked ice and water and allow it to chill. In the other glass place a lump of sugar along with just enough water to dampen it. The saturated lump of sugar can then be flattened and crushed with a spoon. Add a couple of drops of bitters, a dash of Angostura, a hearty shot of whiskey, for while bourbon may suffice for a julep it is not appropriate for a genuine Sazerac. In the glass containing sugar, bitters, and whiskey add quite a few lumps of ice and stir. A shaker is not necessary to make t... (read more)

18. Breastfeeding Does Not Ruin Breasts
April 12, 2008

There are many reasons why women don't breastfeed or curtail it early. One reason is the myth that breastfeeding will make breasts sag and ruin their appearance. However, a recent study has showed that nursing does not cause breasts to sag; other factors are to blame. Brian Rinker, a plastic surgeon at the University of Kentucky, was surprised that many women, who came to him wanting breast augmentation or lifts, believed that breastfeeding had caused their breast to sag. Intrigued, he decided to find out if there was any connection. Over an eight year period between 1998 and 2006 he... (read more)
