          <description><![CDATA[
Love at first sight is a wonderful thing. In the case of the Four County Players&#8217; summer Shakespeare production of &#8220;As You Like it,&#8221; it&#8217;s the premise of an amusing, outrageous and intentionally confusing adventure that opened July 31 in Barboursville.

          <title>Market to host charcoal demo</title>
          <link>http://www.madison-news.com/mce/entertainment/events_calendar/article/market_to_host_charcoal_demo/25265/</link>
          <description><![CDATA[
During a charcoal making demonstration &#8211; set for Saturday, Aug. 2 at the Madison County Farmers Market &#8211; demonstrators will use a modified chicken feed hopper designed to moderate the burn such that it distills the wood to its raw carbon form. This is accomplished through a low oxygen burn that not only drives all the moisture away but also ignites a chemical reaction exuding gasses and tar resulting in nearly pure carbon.

          <description><![CDATA[
Under different circumstances, the Grammy award-nominated bluegrass family band Cherryholmes may have been full-time Madison County residents.

&#8220;We often said if the music didn&#8217;t work out, we would just pick apples on the mountains in Syria,&#8221; said Sandy Cherryholmes &#8211; mother, mandolin-player and vocalist of the group, set to perform during a Sunday, July 20 concert at Graves Mountain Lodge in Syria.&nbsp;

          <description><![CDATA[
In the early 1900s, the buzz of a dentist&#8217;s drill sounded more like a quiet hum. A century-old pedal-powered drill is among the tools once used by Dr. Lee Taliaferro, who treated Madison County residents in the early 20th century. In addition to the drill, Taliaferro&#8217;s polishing discs and vials of tablet triturates (a precursor to the medicinal pills used today) are currently on display at the Arcade museum in downtown Madison.
