City agrees to create resident-only parking zone on street near KU campus
In the future, it might be a good idea to make sure the number of off-street parking spaces matches the sleeping capacity/number of bedrooms of any structure, in single family and, especially, in multiple occupancy/multi-family dwellings. Streets are for driving and temporary parking. It should be in the building codes - with no exceptions.

Editorial: Other choices
The up-side of having the Republican party taken over by extremists is Kansas might actually become a two party state. Imagine if Kansas was a swing state. We could have millions of out of state dollars spent here, boosting our economy every two years - and especially every fourth year. Yes, Ohio, I'm jealous. Please, Dolph, think about the economic impact of voting Democrat - just once.

Plan to spend $1 million for more downtown parking to get closer look
If church property is used for other activities beyond worship, or it charges rent for the sanctuaries, then churches should pay their fair share of assessments for all city services and infrastructure. Not to do so puts private and public organizations at an unfair disadvantage. Separation of church and state also means government cannot give unfair advantage to churches.

Organizer moves Christian workshop from Kansas House
Religious prayer needs to be excluded from any place paid for wholly by tax payer moneys. If religious groups want to use public (government) venues, they need to pay the normal rental plus a portion of the annual upkeep based on the number of hours the religious organization uses the venue, since they would pay no taxes for its support otherwise; since they already have venues which are charged no taxes that can be use for religious purposes. We are all already paying enough for religious organizations to use community infrastructure without paying any taxes in support.

Kansas House chamber set to host Christian workshop
When churches/religions pay taxes, then we can talk about using tax-payers paid-for venues. Sorry, division between church and state cuts both ways. This is not appropriate.

SLT milestone
It makes me sad that people still don't understand this is a bad idea for so many reasons.

Pork_ribs, Britteny Griner. (And, I've heard, Aisha Sutherland, but she's graduating.)
Start watching, the women play faster and cleaner than the men.
But, don't tell anyone. It's more fun watching in Allen Field House when the stands aren't packed so tight that if you stand up to cheer, you lose your seat.
