Huelskamp's uncompromising positions well-known in Kansas
To Mercy, who asked what's my point. It was to report that Rep. Huelskamp's recent actions that have gained attention in D.C. are similar to how he operated while in the Kansas Legislature.

Kansas House approves covenant marriage measure
Several folks have asked if a covenant marriage would be optional under Rep. Anthony Brown's amendment. It would. I've added a sentence to reflect that. Thank you.

Parents of domestic violence victim Jana Mackey testify before Legislature about new legislation
My bad. I removed this story from Statehouse Live and made it a separate story. Then I put the domestic violence story in Statehouse Live. I then e-mailed Jonathan to fix the posts situation because he is all-knowing in these areas. But he just informed me, it can't be done.

Statehouse Live: Parkinson says no more cuts to education
I did get a few of your questions in regarding education funding and whether he and his staff would take a salary cut. Much of my story from the interview will deal with school funding, taxes and other budget issues.
In response to the salary question, Gov. Parkinson said his office has been able to cut its budget by keeping staff levels low. That will require some research to verify, but I will do that later. Thanks for reading and for your questions.

Life's routine changes in the slip of a moment when son breaks leg
Forgot to mention in the story that we live in Topeka. That's why we went to Stormont. As far as school, he will have stay out this week and maybe the next, and then there is the two-week winter break. By that time, he may be much better able to maneuver on the crutches.

Let's rally around the smokers who will be participating in the Great American Smokeout
I quit smoking about 16 years ago because I had just gotten married and we were planning a family. I did pretty good for a couple of years, and then our second son was born, my job got crazy, etc. I picked up the habit again. Would quit, re-start, quit, re-start. Then I quit for good (I hope) when we moved to Kansas from south Texas. I couldn't take standing outside in the cold weather to smoke. So, it was a combination of having kids and being a wimp about the cold that made me quit. I don't have an exact date of when I quit because I don't want to focus on anniversaries. Good luck. I know it's not easy, but it's one of the best things you can do.
