Serious injuries reported in 5-vehicle accident near Sixth Street and Kasold Drive

oletimer - pay attention to the modified date on the story. It was updated after Ron posted his comment. At the time of our comments, there was no information about the driver of the Cadillac.

Quit running your mouth, period.

+1. I got a chuckle out of your comment.

Westside Lawrence Farmers' Market called off

According to the Douglas county property search, the property is currently owned by Condor Investments, Inc. I could not find any relationship between Condor Investments, Inc. and Famous Dave's of America, Inc.

From the Kansas Business Center Business Entity Lookup page, it looks like Condor Investments is a foreign corporation owned in Lincoln, NE. The corporation was formed in Kansas in November 2010, and it's current KS status is Delinquent - they did not file their annual disclosure or pay their fee.

There might be other relationships lurking around, but I didn't dig any deeper.

Man threatened with a chainsaw during argument

That complex is terrible. In the last several months there have been 2 incidents with guns and now with a chainsaw. I'd say the owners need to re-evaluate their leasing strategy.

Police respond to shooting near apartments north of Lawrence Memorial Hospital

I am not obsessed with crime. I appreciate the extra detail. More than that, it makes me wonder once again why LJW does not print all of the available information.

Town Talk: Student financial aid company moving to N. Lawrence, may add 100 jobs; Masonic Temple project on the ropes; Eudora to host Christmas extravganza

Seems to me like coderob needs to find another job. He's got way too much smack-talking time on his hands.

Did you look at their site? It says they're not affiliated with the federal (.gov) site and even links to them. I did the form myself almost ten years ago and surely could have used the help if I'd have known about them. I very likely got hosed out of financial aid because my parents wouldn't help fill out the form and I wound up over ten grand in the hole - despite having a relatively poor family. I wouldn't use them now, but I sure do have a financial advisor that handles my investments - I'd just rather not worry about it, despite the fact that I could use e-trade or some other such site to do it for a substantially lower cost. To each his own.

Rural areas get tax break from Kansas Gov. Sam Brownback

You only assume I'd be against it. The difference is that I know you're against it as is, not because you only talk about the idea being bad, but because you speak so negatively about the person who pushed it through.

I grew up in western Kansas and know first hand the problem the area faces. I prefer the openness and beauty of the rural counties, but the fact is there are few jobs to support a life out there.

The concept of subsidizing student loans to live in a rural county is a good one, but it stops short in terms of fixing the problem. There needs to be an incentive for business and industry to move out there. Until that happens you can pay all the student loans you want without putting a roof over somebody's head or feeding their family.

Baby steps.
