They're probably still saying that it was wrong to make assumptions before any toxicology results had been made available.

Lawrence mother searching for missing teen

Stevie, I know life can be tough during the teen years and the the inevitable problems at home can bring a guy down, but the best thing you can do is find someone to talk to about this and get some guidance to get you through it until you're old enough to move out in your own. When you get through this rut you may even be able to help kids in the future who are in a similar situation. Tough times can either beat a person down or make him stronger. Running away and skipping school will only add to your misery in the long run. Come back home and find the determination to live a happy and successful life no matter what comes your way.

Editorial: Quick fix

The bulk of this responsibility falls on the parents. Don't let your kid spend hours on end playing video games. Take a weekly trip to the library instead and let him pick out a couple fun books to help build his reading skills. Your child will learn the basics of reading while in school, but it's up to you to help him develop that skill outside the classroom. Plus it's quality time spent with your child.

What kind of boob brings a loaded handgun to a steak house? Was he afraid somebody might try to steal his baked potato?

Report: Pilot inexperience contributing factor in 2011 crash that killed 4 Kansans

I don't see where it says he was conducting a training exercise. It states that he was executing a missed approach maneuver and that, while it is a common practice for training, it doesn't say that he was doing it as part of a training exercise.

Dean of Education initiated recent email incident over turkey abuse case

Does KU have any sort of policy that prohibits its employees from sending sexually themed emails to coworkers? It seems highly inappropriate for any employee, particularly a Dean, to send a masturbation email to a female coworker.
