Colorado shootings suspect to enter insanity plea

Hold the full trial and record the evidence and testimonies. Lock him up as long as he's "insane". If he ever becomes sane, then he gets an automatic life sentence.

I'm sure there's some way to do this legally.

Jim Tressel- YSU president?

I expected Dr Anderson to stay perhaps five-six years, but her sudden departure surprised me.
I'm ambivalent about Jim Tressel - I would hope that there are other candidates with at least the same qualifications and less baggage.

Mormon church wants more compassion for gays

In other words "We will be nicer to you. You can call yourselves gay. But you can't have sex or get married, or we will still reject you as a sinner."

Slightly kinder than some other churches, but not much.

Would you support legalization of marijuana in Ohio?

Even if it's legalized, it doesn't mean that an employer can no longer test for/refuse to hire on that basis. Employers in Ohio can reject candidates for tobacco use, so it just stands to reason they can reject for this reason as well.

And that's ignoring that it's still a federal violation.

Ohio high school testing standards to be raised

The state has to quit cutting school funds and quit pushing people away from the public school system. It's unlikely that all current public school children can be accommodated by charter, parochial, and other schools.

Constitutional amendments: Yes on Issue 2, no on Issue 1

Vote no on Issue 1. Ohio's constitution is already too easy to amend, taking a simple majority vote.

As for issue 2, if the lines are drawn with bias in mind, it raises a high bar to overcome that bias, becoming self-perpetuating.

Revamp of YSU's Pollock House nearly done

Tuition money is not used for capital expenses like this, just operating expenses (salary, utilities, office supplies, etc).

Student rolls drop 5 percent at YSU from 2011

I may be wrong, but I'm thinking that the decision to renovate the Pollack House as a "presidential mansion" predates selection of Dr Anderson (who is local and doesn't need it to begin with) as president.

Student rolls drop 5 percent at YSU from 2011

For starters, anyone that assumes that the Pollack House is being remodeled with tuition money doesn't understand the difference between capital projects/funds and operating funds. I can't take anything else they say seriously.
