Lawrence Humane Society seeking temporary housing for up to 60 dogs
The Kansas Department of Agriculture charges the $10 fee, not the Humane Society. Typically when a person fosters an animal, the cost of regular maintence is part of that choice to foster.
The Shelter offering to provide that helps people willing to give of their time & homes.

Game time
Being able to come up with the money to create/build a new recreation center isn't the only consideration. It's also extremely important to consider if the city can afford to own, operate & staff this additional facility now & in the future. During a time when it's become difficult & challenging to just be able to maintain current infrastructures and provide needed services to the entire city, one has to seriously question this idea.

Kansas University changing scholarship offerings for incoming freshman
I think this is great for incoming KU freshmen. We personally went through the experience of dealing with available freshman scholarships not being renewable. And it was extremely frustrating. Especially since she has chosen majors not in engineering or business and money isn't available in her areas of study. Every semester brings that stress of figuring how to cover expenses. So I am happy to know that this will change for new qualifying freshmen.
But having a child, who as a freshman two years ago, would have qualified to have full tuition & fees covered by this new scholarship arrangement...well...how can I describe my feelilng......

City Commission OKs closing part of Mass. St. for car show
It's not like Mass. Street will be closed 6th thru 13th streets. Now THAT would make access difficult. :-)
Though not impossible if one really wanted to get downtown :-)
