Statehouse Live: Bill to repeal in-state tuition for undocumented students introduced in committee
Why is the number always 47%? Where are the [non-partisan] links showing the data to back this number up?
Also, sales tax is a tax. I doubt that these people are able to avoid paying sales taxes.

Efficiency task force to call for review of collective bargaining laws
Shouldn't this be a standard to which we aspire?
Why is it that working people are vilified for what is perceived as privilege (something which is most probably a vestige of times when the working class were better treated), yet wealthier folks are coddled for the ways in which they have gamed the system?
Divide and conquer.

Statehouse Live: Kansas Supreme Court upholds cap on jury awards in medical malpractice
I believe the point was that the cap was enacted in 1986, but has not been adjusted for inflation since it was enacted.

Haskell records request unmet
"I have no problem with my records being open. You see, I don't have anything to hide"
In that case, I would like to file a request for your address and a list of your most valuable possessions :) Credit card numbers and SSN would be nice, too. Your address and SSN were provided by taxpayer money, so I want those at a minimum.
Not everything is as clear cut as you think.

What is a meal or a food that you think captures the essence of summer and why?
Tarator: Diced cucumbers, garlic, salt, and fresh dill mixed with Bulgarian yogurt and *cold* water. Should be the consistency of soup.
The Bulgarian yogurt makes the dish, because it tends to be more tangy than its American (or Greek) counterparts.

Town Talk: Lawrence home sales for first half of year up nearly 11 percent; Americans for Prosperity rep. urges City Commission to dump sustainability posts
'...as one legislator said “the most aggressive attack on our liberties . . . that we have ever seen.”'

Sound Off: I was wondering why the Lawrence public school district does not have any computer-equipm
The school district needs to start looking at using more free and open source software to free up money for other things. Asset management would be a good place to start.
