Petitions delivered urging Brownback to veto anti-abortion measures

If I were you I would stay out of operating rooms and field hospitals. You don't handle human trauma well and it is affecting your well being and judgement regardless of your passion for or against abortion.

Area receives up to 7 inches of snow in overnight winter storm

I will guarantee you I can find as many credible "experts" as you claim to have to refute your statement. A very large number of experts not only disagree as to whether the plant is actually warming but a very large number within that group acknowledge there is no proof to attribute any change (should it exist) to any hydrocarbon related human activity.

Opinion: Freedom to make dumb decisions

You are absolutely correct. That sums it up nicely. I guess the tipping point is "Where exactly does the "affecting others, sometimes seriously" warrant direct government intervention which results in loss of personal choice. That's a tough one. I can think of so many choices people make on a daily basis that negatively affect me, my family, our environment and security that go unchallenged that I would be up all night creating even a partial list.

Home sales up in January; new numbers on county's property tax base; median home values fall sharply in Baldwin, Eudora, rural areas; weekly land transfers

Yes, I found this out the hard way. I moved here from the East (although a former KC area resident) and purchased a house in the county for almost 35% less than list. Based on that sales price my taxes from the prior year should have fallen markedly. They didn't. My taxes went up. I also know the original builders loan amount on the house. After hiring an attorney I managed to get them reduced to the" last year paid" amount. Lesson? Unless you have a VERY COMPARABLE sale (Comp) that sold in the last 6 months for a comparison base...you're screwed. You must have a comp as a starting point.

Sound Off: Handicapped parking

You're splitting hairs, did-i-say-that. Obviously the blogger meant in an area where rapid and contiuous turnover of parking spots is the norm is parking for extended periods of time permitted in handicap spots. Sheeesh.

Opinion: Entitlement state not sustainable

Is disappointed_regressives' comment poorly written satire or honest to goodness, full fledged stupidity? Seriously, I can't figure it out. To that purpose it as been successful.

Support grows for loop highway in Douglas, Leavenworth, Johnson counties

I agree. I have never known of a mass transit rail service being viable in a "rural" type area with the combined population of the above mentioned counties.

Alcohol involved in Oct. 19 accident

Its a sad story with a sad ending but pending the DUI results it still begs the question "How responsible am I whether or not there is any discernable level of alcohol in my system for running over some one who is laying in the street at 1:00 AM?"
