Man sentenced to 32 months in prison for texting sexual images with a minor
The client broke the law, not his lawyer. We don't lock folks up in this country for doing something you don't like or don't agree with bergerfry. JC Gilroy is an excellent caring attorney who actually cares about his clients and not just the measly court-appointed attorney paycheck he earns. He is bound to do what his client asks him to whether he agrees with it or whether he thinks the public is going to agree with it or not. I guess when we all subject ourselves to your authority, you can tell everyone how to do their job or lock them up because you don't agree with them. 'Murica!

What is your favorite ethnic restaurant or store in Lawrence?
Curry In a Hurry is pretty good if you get there before they sell out of tandoori drumsticks

KU students extend helping hands for Big Event
^ generalization!
not every KU student is pissing on your lawn. Give these kids credit for taking time out of their lives to help others. I had 2 crews at my house and they were all very friendly, polite, and willing to help. They did a great job and I'm very thankful for the things they accomplished at my house. I've had bad experiences with students too but I don't blame every one of them for what one of them does. Why do you have to ruin a nice thing by being so negative? any KU student reading this that volunteered for the big event...THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU you are appreciated!

Are you planning to go to New Orleans to see the Kansas University Jayhawks play in the NCAA Final Four?
I bought airfare to New Orleans recently and it was a little over $250 round trip for one person...Not That Expensive!

Sound Off: Is Christmas always on Sunday?
watched Disney's Pocahontas movie at the theater when it came out years ago, where I think Mel Gibosn voiced the englishman John Smith that Pocahontas supposedly saved from her father Chief Powhatan...and some dipstick dad there with his kids got up from the movie and said, "you'd think they could have come up with a better name for him than John Smith"
What the ???
And that man procreated! Scary!

Heard on the Hill: The Big Event has students ready to volunteer, but they still need projects to work on; local AAUP chapter involved in tenure spat; fans take to YouTube after KU-MU game
I think the day is March 31, not 21st, according to the email I received from my neighborhood association about the Big Event

Schools scenario shifts to boundaries
when my daughter was in kindergarten and 1st grade she attended Broken Arrow. We moved to East Lawrence and she was sent to East Heights although I tried and tried to get her into Kennedy. So 2nd and 3rd grade she was at East Heights. Then they closed it and she got sent to Kennedy anyway. Very disruptive to her educationally and personally. I thought it was ridiculous to have her in 3 elementary schools especially since we moved into the Kennedy district. It was 4 minutes from our house going south, where East Heights was 10 minutes west.
I also think the boundaries are screwed up even now. We live 1.45 miles from Central Jr. High and yet she was not able to take the bus because you had to live 1.5 miles from the junior high to be bus-eligible. When she was at LHS, we lived 2.2 miles from the school but she couldn't ride as you had to live 2.5 miles away to be bus-eligible.
Who comes up with this stuff? Is it based on reality? Yeah maybe a high school student should be able to walk 2.5 miles to school but have you tried that in Kansas with our weather?
UGH! so not happy with the Lawrence school district. Glad Dr. Ingram is there to be a voice of reason. I hope the board listens to him.
