Usually a good thing to be a city on a billionaires radar...

https://www.kwch.com/2021/06/29/blue-origin-ceo-visit-wichita-wednesday/

WICHITA, Kan. (KWCH) - U.S. Senator Jerry Moran (R-Kan.) will host Blue Origin CEO Dr. Bob Smith in Wichita on Wednesday.

On Wednesday, Dr. Smith will visit Globe Engineering Company, Harlow Aerostructures, Metal Finishing Company and Accurus Aerospace, which is already a supplier for Blue Origin.

Fight breaks out at Wichita Open qualifying event at Sand Creek Station in Newton


Find your own ball #%$%#...



"WICHITA, Kan. (KWCH) - A Wichita Open qualifying event at Newton’s Sand Creek Station drew national attention Monday for reasons unrelated to the quality of play. A golf blog called The Firepit Collective was the first to report on a fight that broke out between two players. That fight led to an arrest.

Eyewitness News is working to confirm details within the report. So far, The Firepit Collective reports the fight was between two players during the middle of a qualifier for the Korn Ferry Tour’s Wichita Open. The report said the fight was over one player not helping the other look for a lost golf ball. USA Today picked up on the report, which is catching steam on social media.

The report says a player named Austin Dailey hit a wayward shot and couldn’t find his ball. Then, it says, another player and the player’s father, both in the group, didn’t help look for the ball when a third player did. The blogger reports Dailey approached Luke Smith and Smith’s father, telling them that helping to look for errant shots might speed up the group. The Smiths then allegedly began to yell at Dailey about his play and as Dailey walked away, Luke Smith reportedly jumped on Dailey and started to punch him."

I don't get it...


I would certainly like to get the covid vaccination...Not just for my protection but for others.

The problem is I am a chronic asthmatic. Heavy allergies...and I take a "controller"..ie

symbicort as a steroid. So I dig around to find out how this med could affect me..Found this;

"Should people with asthma get the COVID-19 vaccine?
Yes, says board-certified allergist Purvi Parikh, MD, national spokesperson for Allergy & Asthma Network. People with underlying medical conditions such as asthma can receive the COVID-19 vaccine as long as they have not had an immediate or severe allergic reaction to the vaccine or any of its ingredients."

"as long as they have not had an immediate or severe allergic reaction to the vaccine or any of its ingredients."

How the fuck am I supposed to know that without taking the shot?.

This is like when your computer goes down and the phone help line references you to web sites for a fix...duh....

Kelly vetoes plan reserving federal COVID-19 relief funds for Kansas businesses


Kansaas big biz doesn't have the leash on Laura like they did sammy brownbutt...


Citing federal rules, Kansas Gov. Laura Kelly vetoed lawmakers’ last-minute effort to require the state, counties and cities to set aside part of their federal COVID-19 aid to pay businesses harmed by public health orders.

The bill, passed in the final hours of the Legislative session in early May, would have created a three-member board to review business requests for relief using a quarter of the state’s relief dollars and 35% of county and city federal funding for compensation.

The only public information about the review process would be what companies received funds and how much.

In a statement Friday, Kelly said the bill was “well-intentioned” but violated federal rules by placing conditions on local governments’ use of the money, including to “resolve potential legal claims against state or local governments.”

Interim rules published by U.S. Treasury Department prohibit states from placing requirements or conditions on local government use of the latest round of COVID-19 relief funds.

Dubious Kansas endorsements unravel truthfulness of attack on federal unemployment benefit


The letter sent Wednesday to Gov. Laura Kelly had all the trappings of a legitimate appeal from the business community.

Compiled by the state Chamber of Commerce and bearing the names of 181 diverse businesses, business associations, nonprofit groups and government agencies, it called for an end to enhanced federal unemployment benefits for Kansas workers.

But the truthfulness of the campaign unraveled Thursday as multiple executives whose organizations were listed as supporters said they didn’t know anything about the letter and wouldn’t have signed it if they did.
