FreedomWorks urges Legislature to reject Common Core reading and math standards
You got that right.
Agnostick, could you possibly change your icon? I am so sorry, but that totally freaks me out every time I look at it. That woman looks like an evil being in a B movie about to attack someone.

FreedomWorks urges Legislature to reject Common Core reading and math standards
I did not know this and had to look it up. And, now that I know, I still don't know. Sorry. I tried.

This is what I found online.
The distance around a circle is called its circumference. The distance across a circle through its center is called its diameter. We use the Greek letter Pi (pronounced Pi) to represent the ratio of the circumference of a circle to the diameter. In the last lesson, we learned that the formula for circumference of a circle is: C equals Pi times d. For simplicity, we use Pi = 3.14. We know from the last lesson that the diameter of a circle is twice as long as the radius.

Editorial: Guns, speech
No one can force you to "believe" anything. You have to make that choice all by yourself, and then you have to decide whether you want to act on it or not.

Opinion: Why gay role models matter
You know something? When I read this column I thought about the aspect of gay sexuality for the first time, that is to say putting it in context. I did think gay was all about sex, but now realize that it is not.
It is about how two people relate to each other, it does not affect what kind of books they read any more than I read only certain kinds of books because I am a woman. Therefore, it does not affect how they would raise a child, their individual personalities would do that.
I have never been openly critical of gays but this is the first time that I have really understood a very important part of their lives, the right to be a parent. It seems like I can read or hear something a thousand times and it doesn't really register, but then I read it again and it does. Maybe Pitts just put it the right way for me.

Local Board of Realtors collecting items today for tornado survivors in Oklahoma City area
Thank you. I know that the Red Cross and others are not accepting goods because they can't get them to Moore. I think it is wonderful that you not only are collecting things but have a way to get them there. I hope the trailer is packed to the roof when it leaves for Moore.
This doesn't give people much time though if the items have to be there today.

Do you have plans in place in the event of a tornado?
Photo op, maybe a book deal depending. Seriously? I have no idea. They had to change the Fujita Scale because the storms are stronger than in the past.

EF4 the one that hit Moore would:
"Devastating damage. Whole frame houses Well-constructed houses and whole frame houses completely leveled; cars thrown and small missiles generated."
There is no place to go.

More on city recreation center bids, and a possible city policy on drone use?
Chad you are an excellent writer and I always enjoy your blogs. They are both informative and funny. I totally missed that joke about women. If you did write this, then think about this, your house would be totally empty unless someone had went out and bought all those things.
Buy your wife some roses today just to say thank you for the shopping that gives you a nice place to come home to.

U.S.' largest tanker base to be in Wichita
This is good news for the economy of Kansas. A military installation always brings money to the surrounding area.

I have a feeling that on these the expiration date is merely a guideline.
