It's too bad Kevin wasn't allowed to film in the Rec Center since it was his hard work as a student that helped the place get built in the first place. One of the new basketball courts is named after him.
These veggie burgers are truly amazing. You can pop it in the toaster and have a delicious, nutritious meal/snack in minutes. And they are available in local grocery stores too.
Jerry Moran opposes earmarks and voted against every single bailout. I'd say that makes him more conservative (at least on important issues) than Tiahrt.
KUnited may not have been that good offensively in terms of putting points on the board. But in terms of their defense, they were spectacular. Only allowing the opposition to score 950 points is incredible.
Where are the quotes from the other side of the argument? This article is pretty one-sided, and statements like this are unquestioned:
"If the schools are closed, Greene said, families will be forced to move to different neighborhoods or areas of town, changing the dynamic of the community and its appeal to potential residents."
No, families won't be "forced" to move anywhere. There will still be plenty of elementary schools, and Lawrence is still a fairly small town.
These people need to realize the cuts need to come from somewhere. Consolidating schools is a much better option than cutting programs. For example, I'd rather have 6 good schools with well-paid teachers and well-funded extra-curricular programs than 10 average schools that can't afford quality teachers and can't fund important programs.
The panhandlers are annoying and should be dealt with. And it's ridiculous to say that the city commission should work to end homelessness; the city commission can't do that.
