What makes a good barbecue sauce?

got to have good meat to have a great sauce... you can take the best of sauces and ruin it during the cooking and application process. The best sauces are made into good marinades, soak the meat then apply raw sauce to the cooked meat. If you try to use sauce for cooking, you will end up with burnt sauce on your cooked meat.

Sound Off: License stickers

I am not sure why this would be an effective question other than for those unable to follow directions. If a location is specified, why would one go against this placement?

when a new tag is purchased and paid for, the stickers are put on while at the DMV. So when you renew and get new stickers. I would suggest the old fashion way of cleaning the old sticker to be free of dirt and grime and adhering the new sticker on top.... And yes the stickers are made to be NOT REMOVABLE so don't try to tear old sticker off....

Douglas County oil production up 12 percent in 2012; outpaces statewide growth

If one expects the up tick in small oil well start up to have an effect on prices it will. Once all small wells are up and running, the price regulators will adjust the price of oil per barrel to make production from small wells to cost prohibitive. Supply and demand will regulate the price, thus the reason that most small wells have been at a very slow production rate for years....
I believe the oil production process is going towards fracking and other cost effective ways of production. This will further effect the price of crude oil. And many states are backing the fracking process with tax incentives for setting up in specific areas.

Lawrence cyclist seriously injured in collision with vehicle

I like your hopeful outlook. However I am going to venture to say that lots of posters here in the LJW probably live in glass houses and most of them have very expensive window replacement bills. It is amazing some of the outlandish comments made on a topic such as this.
I agree with you completely, tried to make the same point the other day, however I think it was overlooked being mixed with the other posts. Everyone is an expert, everyone knows the other guy did it wrong, and the truth is an article like this was to alert people to an injury and accident to provide compassion and possibly get people to think twice while driving a car OR riding a bike. accidents are just accidents and some are unavoidable no matter who is to blame...

Letter: An angry rant

A rant, by any other name than angry would just be a rant. While complaints are logged, could anyone tell me the real outcome. Put plainly, even during an angry rant, I am sure that everyone will continue to do what is needed to save money. So the problem with a double sided coin. We want the outcome but not the results.... We wish on a shooting star for what? Another shooting star. Buy today to save tomorrow.

I love how every shopping trip I make is finished by a cashier smiling and informing me of the money I saved.... You saved $9.00 today sir.... yah right, I was only wanting to spend a dollar so how did I save 9?

Douglas County oil production up 12 percent in 2012; outpaces statewide growth

I am just curious, does anyone who reads this article really think that the oil production of Douglas county being up by 12 percent will ever equate to a hill of beans??? 40,000 more barrels per year? I believe the US uses a way larger amount per day.. Not sure of those numbers but then again I didn't read the entire article because I am sure the numbers are way off

Contentious issue of lighted tennis courts near LHS to be discussed again by city commissioners

Just curious, if the tennis players of Lawrence already have special finger lights to use for playing after dark, are lights on the court such a big deal??? Boy that came out quick, I am sure to get a lashing for this one.
