The Missouri Supreme Court has denied a move by Kansas City Council candidate Michael Fletcher to set aside a lower court ruling that disqualified him from running for office.
But Fletcher still has an avenue to appeal his disqualification from public office in Kansas City.

I have much to say about this store. The owner is psychotic and does not have any self-awareness. He pulled his daughter's hair and hit her in the face while I was in the store. He was yelling like a crazy man in her ear. I was not the only customer in the store. HE HIT AND PULLED HIS DAUGHTER'S HAIR IN PUBLIC AND IN HIS VERY OWN STORE. He's an abusive person and I WOULD NOT recommend anyone shopping at this store! This store also sells fake Ed Hardy clothes. The so called designer clothes he sells there are knock-offs. I will NEVER set foot back in that store.

The Johnson County Board of Commissioners has approved $20.29 million to finish remodeling the Olathe jail.
The unanimous vote on Thursday amends a contract with JE Dunn Construction for the second — and final — phase of reconstructing the downtown Adult Detention Center into a 72-hour Intake and Reception Center. Construction has been ongoing since last year.

January brought strong gains in truck freight volumes, despite harsh winter storms during the month, according to the American Trucking Associations.
The organization’s index of for-hire truck tonnage lifted 3.8 percent in January, coming off a revised 2.5 percent gain in December. The index is adjusted to reflect seasonal variations.
“Many fleets told us that freight was solid in January, although operations were a challenge due to the winter storms that hit large parts of the country,” ATA Chief Economist Bob Costello said in a...

H&R Block Inc. saw an increase in its crucial early-season tax clients, despite not being able to offer refund anticipation loans.
The loans typically are popular among early-season filers, but they’ve come under scrutiny recently. H&R Block (NYSE: HRB) was hamstrung, facing trouble with the loans earlier than its big competitors. Also, limitations by the Internal Revenue Service meant a delayed start to the tax season.
Even so, the Kansas City-based company prepared 2.5 percent more tax returns during the first part of the 2010 tax season, through...

The Kansas Bioscience Authority needs more oversight to help curb bulging salaries and entertainment expenses, some Kansas lawmakers say.
Members of the Senate Commerce Committee want to add three voting board members for the $581 million state fund, which was created in 2004 to boost the Kansas bioscience industry.
“The board has been irrationally exuberant in allowing excessive, extravagant entertainment and executive bonuses,” said Sen. Chris Steineger, R-Kansas City. “We want to continue to grow our bioscience industry, but we want our money focused in direct investments, not extravagant...

 A Missouri senator has introduced legislation he said would curb the abusive practices of the payday loan industry in Missouri.
Sen. Joe Keaveny, D-St. Louis, has proposed Senate Bill 295, which would prohibit lenders from renewing unsecured loans of $500 or less. The bill also would prohibit lenders from making loans to consumers who have an outstanding loan or within one week of a borrower paying off a previous loan.
The measure would require lenders to disclose certain information to consumers at the loan signing: the duration of the loan, the amount and date of payments due, and the amount of interest and fees that will be charged during the duration of the...

The specter of Kansas City losing its earnings tax revenue caused a major ratings agency to downgrade its score on the city’s general obligation bonds.
Fitch Ratings assigned a AA rating Kansas City’s general obligation bonds, down from the previous AA+ score.
Fitch’s report on Tuesday attributed its downgrade to the unstable future of 1 percent Kansas City’s earnings tax, which provides about $200 million a year in revenue.
“The downgrade reflects the greater inherent risks to the city’s financial performance and overall vitality created by the new initiative requiring voter approval of the continuation of the city’s principal revenue source every five years,” the Fitch Ratings report...

The reduction would last five years, at which point the Corps would re-evaluate the river and determine whether the amount needed to be...

Ivan was my immigration lawyer and helped me bring my husband to Canada very quickly and painlessly. His rates were among the the best in Toronto, and he was aware of my financial situation and gave me a very favourable financing option. This man's advice is golden, and his dedication to my file was incredible. He actually kept pushing me to get things done, not the other way around. I recommend Ivan Steele Law Office in strongest terms possible.

If the Kansas Legislature expands slot machine gambling in the spring, a Las Vegas casino owner will buy and reopen the mothballed The Woodlands Racetrack in Wyandotte County.
Phillip Ruffin, a former Wichita resident, said Monday that his option on the dog and horse track is good until the end June.
“We will not close on the deal unless we get gaming,” he said in a telephone interview. “Slots are imperative to get that thing going.”
He said the Legislature would consider the proposal, but he declined to predict a timetable for seeing the measure...

Bernard Taylor is finally off the hook for $1 million.
Taylor, one in a procession of Kansas City, Mo., School District superintendents who faced short tenures, was named as a defendant in a lawsuit filed by an erstwhile student who was attacked in school in 2005.
The Missouri Supreme Court ruled last week that Taylor was not liable for such damages while serving as superintendent.
He was sued by Craig Dydell, a student at Central High School. During the fall semester of 2005, another student — James Whitehead — cut Dydell’s neck with a box cutter during an unprovoked attack in the school’s...

 The federal government is in the midst of a battle against refund anticipation loans, and so far it looks like a rout.

The announcement led to Kansas City-based H&R Block Inc. (NYSE: HRB) not being able to offer important refund anticipation loans (read more here), and now it appears that H&R Block’s competitors are facing similar...

 Construction of the National Bio and Agro-Defense Facility appears on track with President Obama including $150 million for the project in his proposed fiscal 2012 budget.
The budget, released Monday, would give the financing to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security to keep the $650 million NBAF project moving.
“This is clearly encouraging news to see this high on the president’s priority list,” Ron Treywn, vice president for research at Kansas State University, said during a Monday conference...

 President Obama’s 2012 budget request delivered a blow to plans to build a $211 million federal building in downtown Kansas City.
The request did not include $20 million for design and acquisition financing requested by the General Services Administration. The money is considered a key step toward getting the building completed by its target date of 2017.
The federal building would serve as a centerpiece for the eight-block East Village redevelopment project.
“Our proposal for a new federal building in Kansas City remains a priority for the...
