If more needs to be spent cleaning up after TNL, fine. The idea that this is a trashy beer garden ignores the fact that beer gardens are trashy to if not cleaned up. Alcohol is part of our culture, for good or bad. Managing it is part of our law and social processes. TNL is new to Jeff City and needs adjustments and more resources devoted to it. TNL is one of the best ideas local business has come up with. Keep after them about trash and security, but if you want adults to have more entertainment options, TNL is a good investment. I'll be there tonight, and every Thursday night this June.

DNR and Conservation fight like two cats wiith one catbox. Conservation is what it sounds like, an agency dedicated to conserving the state's wild places and populations. DNR is in the business of making sure our resources are overused, abused, and neglected for profit. Yeah, they need to be in the same place . . .

If the act were known to be aimed at Christians, rather than just a convenient target, it would indeed be labeled a hate crime by law.

Because if we do not transition away from carbon as our nearly sole source of energy there will be economic and cultural negatives. Primarily the result of global warming, foriegn carbon demand and supply, and air pollution. Energy use can be streamlined and made more efficient, even staying with carbon, but it must grow as the blood of our economy. I realize there are segments of our society that deny these issues exist or are massively exaggerated, usually for some conspiratorial agenda, but reality, science, history, and human nature point to a clear need to diversify our energy sources quickly.

"Continous Improvement" was the label for much such management training, and many state agencies signed on, but failed to implement.

Should Routh have been able to buy a gun after two visits to the nervous hospital? And more on the point, should there be a system in place to confiscate his already owned guns once he had been know to be in mental distress? His father's urge to sell Routh's gun is as protective and valid a wish as a parent could have, but should the mental health system have a say in that decision? This is where the "taking our guns" smoke meets a spark. What evaluation and confiscation authority could be designed that wouldn't be open to abuse? This is a road we have to go down, in some manner or other.
