KCSD just cancelled school for tomorrow. Don't hold your breath that this game is going to be played.

And this is where the Obama proposal for publicly funded community college education ties in. That is where you can learn the trade skills that have relevance in the marketplace. Most 4 year College curriculums are taught with english challenged foreign graduate students who are paid next to nothing, while students are accumulating 5 and even 6 figure debt. You have to be very selective regarding what school you attend and what you choose as a major. 4 year college is not fr everybody , either.

There are plenty of jobs if you are willing to study a STEM curriculum. The problem is that so many youth want an easy path out of college and end up with degrees and education that is not in demand in the marketplace. Health care and technology are begging for people.

Patriots exonerated. NFL looks like idiots again!

Invest in the front end.

It is our money, but the Supreme Court has spoken and requires it to spent on the mass incarceration of individuals with minor offenses where they receive free taxpayer funded health care, food, lodging and education. Most get free legal representation also. We always here the conservative talking points on "welfare", but we never seem to hear objections to MASSIVE spending on the legal, judicial and penal costs associated with the prosecution of crimes that are relatively minor.

This article is clearly politically biased. I bet the drug use among the general population is higher than what is reported here. I would like some data and analysis from someone without a political agenda. I actually have no problems with drug testing welfare recipients, as long as it is cost effective. But to be fair, we also need to drug test corporate welfare recipients!

Can we monitor their extramarital activity as well?

What would you prefer? $100 on the front end, or $1million on the back end?

I hope Obama's proposal for free community college gets support. IMO, it has the potential to reduce welfare roles.

So, say we pull the plug on welfare. Then what? Do you really believe these people, many of whom are unwed mothers, are going to instantly become productive citizens? These people will become desperate, and ultimately turn to illegal activities to support themselves. Then they are arrested, tried and convicted of crimes where they are subsequently incarcerated. While incarcerated , they receive taxpayer provided housing, meals, health care and education. I read one study that asserted that the costs of incarceration are close to an Ivy League education. Welfare is a good investment.

We had a similiar experience with UT Martin. Murray was interested and offered an official visit, before the coaching change. After, no interest. So TN schools require out of state tuition for KY kids, but KY schools require no additional cost for TN kids. This needs to be brought to the attention of the legislators.

The thing I do not understand from this behaviour by EKU and Murray is that signing out of state kids is actually MORE EXPENSIVE because the athletic department is paying for out of state tuition. We need to remember this behaviour the next time EKU or Murray goes to the state legislature for public money!

Let Jordan , Egypt and Libya deal with it. NOT OUR FIGHT! No more foreign interventionism please!

Belichek always seems to trade down for lower round picks. He drafts for volume, not heralded high pick talent. He understands that by drafting in volume, you are more likely to find good players that can help you, with out the expectations and costs of a high round pick.

I see another 2 inches of snow forecast for tonight. If accurate, HHS game will definitely be in jeopardy. There is no benefit to playing a game without having practiced the entire week.

I believe both Boone and Conner are pretty land locked? Ryle seems to be the only campus with room for expansion. I wish Boone had looking into buying the former SOAS facility. It could of had additional classrooms and an indoor practice facility that could have been shared with the other schools.

Don't support either. Kill one, implicate the other!

My understanding is that ISIS and the Taliban are bitter rivals and that it would not take much to promote open warfare between the two groups. I hope we have learned from the Iraq experience to facilitate the conflict between our enemies instead of killing one so the other can dominate!

Doubt it. Too late in the year. Districts start one week from today. Most likely, no school, practices or events tomorrow either. Heck, I would say the Highlands game may be in jeopardy as well.

Yes it was.

1) Which HS program you participate in makes a HUGE difference. Same kid in KY might never be noticed. 2) Assuming the goal is to be recruited and signed at FBS/FCS level, don't bother playing football in HS. Train to hit your measurables.

I believe the jihadists correctly interpret the Quran. Islam is both Religion and Government meant for a population that is homogeneously Islam. Non Islam authority is to be rejected. The alternative to conversion to Islam is death. These beliefs and teachings are in direct conflict for living in a free heterogenous society.

80:42 Those are the disbelievers, the wicked. 76:4 Surely We have prepared for the disbelievers chains and shackles and a burning Fire. 33:48 And obey not the disbelievers and the hypocrites, and disregard their annoying talk, and rely on Allah. And Allah is enough as having charge (of affairs). 25:52 So obey not the disbelievers, and strive against them a mighty striving with it.

5:51 O you who believe, take not the Jews and the Christians for friends. They are friends of each other. And whoever amongst you takes them for friends he is indeed one of them. Surely Allah guides not the unjust people. 9:30 And the Jews say: Ezra is the son of Allah; and the Christians say: The Messiah is the son of Allah. These are the words of their mouths. They imitate the saying of those who disbelieved before. Allah’s curse be on them! How they are turned away! 7:182 And those who reject Our messages — We lead them (to destruction) step by step from whence they know not. 17:16 And when We wish to destroy a town, We send commandments to its people who lead easy lives, but they transgress therein; thus the word proves true against it, so We destroy it with utter destruction. 2:191 And kill them wherever you find them, and drive them out from where they drove you out, and persecution is worse than slaughter. And fight not with them at the Sacred Mosque until they fight with you in it; so if they fight you (in it), slay them. Such is the recompense of the disbelievers.
