The bottom line is teachers are paid well compared to other professions. Plus they get summers off. With the unions I don't think teachers have any room to complain.

Are people forgetting all the other Emporian's doing things in professional sports and don't they deserve signs?
Jason Lahr - Professional Rodeo
J.L Lewis - Professional Golfer
Gary Stinett - NHRA
Former Professionals
Terry Bivins - Nascar Driver who raced against the legends
(I can't believe Nascar fans don't want to honor Terry)
John Lohmeyer - Professional Football player
Bob Clements - Professional Football player
Larry Krammer - Professional Football player
We have many professionals and they are all worthy of recognition. Why single one person out.
WE NEED TO REMEMBER Clint doesn't live here any more. He has moved on and calls NORTH CAROLINA home now.

I am sorry about the family that lost a loved one. But to make a state law the issues needs to impact a tremendous amount of people in the state. 200 people a year is not enough to warrent a new law.
As the article says during the home selling process people are educated about radon and have the option of getting a test done.
It should be a buyer issue not mandate by the state. The government needs to keep out.

Here was the original story - I think
New passion for change

Wednesday, January 9, 2008
THE 2008 ELECTION season is building momentum, with presidential candidates on the campaign trail and taking part in debates.
Watching the debates, it is entertaining to see how the candidates are able to talk for endless minutes on a topic without really saying anything at all.
In the coming months, voters should not to be wooed by nice sounding clichés but should try to listen for details of the candidates’ plans.
The latest buzz word is “change,” and all the candidates are trying to sell themselves as bringers of change.
If you look back in history, presidential candidates promising change is nothing new.
Historically, politicians have talked about bringing change to improve health care, reduce energy independence, cut taxes and raise the working class. Sound familiar?
It is too bad that politicians promise big changes, but in the end, nothing really changes.
Even though the candidates are slinging slogans and making promises that won’t be fulfilled, I suppose the best part of this process is that the candidates are accessible and listening to people.
It is just too bad that accessibility does not continue after a candidate is selected.
Perhaps that is one a change that a president really could make happen.

Tax payers should be pissed about this issue.
I think many questions need to be answered before tax payers are forced to pay for another one. Whats next the courthouse needs to be replaced for bad construction.

Go easy on Coach Moe. He didn't get thrown out of any games last year. You really have to appreciate that when Moe does get kicked out of a game that he makes the exit memorable.

If you are going to share your opinion the LEAST you can do is be INFORMED! Do your research and know what you are talking about. Contrary to what the above post states, it is PERFECTLY legal to have a "Christmas" program. Case after case at the Supreme Court supports that. Furthermore, celebrating "Christmas" no more makes a person a "Christian" than living in Saudi Arabia makes you a Muslim! Something to think about!

Annereol who cares. The season is done. Lets take our sour grapes and move on. Higgins is here and he is in the process of rebuilding the team. Its time to talk about basketball.

"We're not building anything; we are simply tearing up one part of town to build on another. It's the development version of Jenga."
It is too bad that you think Emporia main street isn't doing their job keeping the center of town going.
They work hard and much development has happened in downtown.
With growth on the west side of town and Emporia Main Street keeping the center of town going it looks good to me.
It is too bad you can't see the whole picture.
