The Kansas City metro’s unemployment rate refused to budge in July, holding at June’s 8.5 percent.
That’s still better than the national rate of 9.3 percent that month. Both figures are not seasonally adjusted.
It’s also much better than July 2010, when the metro registered a 9.2 percent unemployment rate.
However, employment during the year declined by 4,800 jobs to 959,400, whereas nationally it rose 1 percent. Most of that loss — 4,100 jobs — came on the Kansas side of the metro area, with the rest on the Missouri side...

 Those sometimes mysterious airline fees are out in the open — for the most part.
And a look at those charged by Kansas City International Airport’s most popular airlines — just like SkyMall magazines — offers some interesting reading.
You’ll pay $75 for each pet carrier you carry on Southwest Airlines Co. (NYSE: LUV), which is the biggest carrier at KCI (Code: MCI). And the last U.S. airline standing (er, flying) for not charging for all checked bags also has a special fee if you check 10 or more bags — unless you’re in the military...

The Chicago-based firm said employers cut more than 51,000 workers from their payrolls in August. That’s a 23 percent decrease from July, when 66,400 jobs were cut.
Still, last month’s cuts were nothing to party about. The total was up 47 percent from the figure for August 2010.

 The Owner-Operator Independent Drivers Association has scored another victory in its long-running fight against electronic devices being used to monitor truck drivers.
The 7th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals on Friday vacated a new rule that would have required the devices, saying the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration didn’t adequately ensure that companies wouldn’t be able to use the devices to “harass” resting drivers to get back on the road.
“Such a mandate would be a step backward in the effort toward highway safety and is an overly burdensome regulation that simply runs up costs for the majority of trucking, which is small business,” Todd Spencer, executive vice president of OOIDA, said in a released statement...

 The Golden Ox has been a mainstay in the West Bottoms on Genessee Street since it opened in 1949 next to the Livestock Exchange Building. But the past two years have brought a rush of new eateries and shops to join the steakhouse in an area that used to hold Kansas City’s stockyards.
Todd Schulte opened the Genessee Royale Bistro in an old gas station in December. The area didn’t have many dining options, he said, and he thought he could contribute to the budding neighborhood.
“My wife, Tracy (Zinn), and I like to go into areas that aren’t necessarily built up, that have a little bit more of an urban feel,” Schulte said...

 Air travel was getting back to normal Monday at Kansas City International Airport as East Coast airports reopened after Hurricane Irene.

The Federal Emergency Management Agency will redirect some funding from Joplin and other disaster recovery efforts to pay for damage from Hurricane Irene, the Washington Post reports.
FEMA said it will suspend some payments for recovery projects in order to meet immediate needs from Hurricane Irene. The action is necessary because the administration will need to request supplement funding from Congress to cover the billions of dollars in new costs from the hurricane.
FEMA already is dealing with a spate of large natural disasters this year, including tornado devastation in Joplin and in Alabama.

Some of the casitas I've rented, even along Canyon Road, have been pretty barebones. One pot, one pan, clean sheets, that's about it. Caroline Morgan wants you to remember every detail of her places, clearly, because she's got Frette sheets on the bed (I always thought it was a marketing gimmick but they really slide under and soothe your body), a gourmet kitchen that gave me kitchen envy --all the comforts of the home I never had the like of. Great towels (ECO), not my starting to show their age ones...Private garden was very nice for our morning coffee and breakfast burritos and newspaper (easy walk). With the walking we did all day all over Santa Fe, it's nice to come back not just to a room, but to a fabulous room, rainfall shower, fall asleep with the cool mountain air -- and down quilts.

Today I am so proud to be Canadian. NDP, Liberal, Conservative, Green Party, we are all Canadians and give our respect and love to a great man. We give our condolences to the Family.
I watched while the country celebrated the life of Jack Layton and reminded us of his call for a "A more inclusive and generous Canada". There were more impressive moments in the final service of tribute to the man and the politician then one can quote but the words of his son, Mike Layton is a true call to action. "We can wait for perfect conditions or make the best of what you have now". On behalf of the Yellowee community, I give my condolences to his family and to all Canadians who today mourn the loss of Jack Layton and in so doing we celebrate the gift his life has been to all Canadians.

Let’s just say we’re going for maximum ImpacT.
The Kansas City Business Journal is extending the nomination deadline for the new ImpacT Awards —but only until Wednesday.
The ImpacT Awards is a different kind of technology honor. It's meant to recognize the people who use technology — new or existing — to improve the operations and profitability of their companies. Honorees might be the company’s CIO, but they could be anyone in the organization.
So if Bob in the sales department suggests a way to automate lead tracking or to enter orders wirelessly from the road and it boosts revenue by 20 percent, he’d be a great nominee...

 Kansas City, there’s good news and bad news.
Let’s start with the bad: Kansas City ranks among the nation’s 50 most sedentary cities, according to Men’s Health.
The good news: Kansas City almost didn’t make that list. It squeaked on, just worse than Milwaukee and Durham, N.C.
The prize of most sedentary city went to Lexington, Ky., followed by Indianapolis and Jackson, Miss.
On the flip side, Seattle and San Francisco worked their way to the top of the active cities list.
The ranking considered factors such as where and how often people exercise, the percentage of households that watch more than 15 hours of cable a week and buy more than 11 video games a year, and the rate of deaths from a condition tied to lots of sitting (deep-vein thrombosis)...

According to his plea agreement, Claerhout obtained two loans totaling more than $714,000 to buy a Parkville property. He did so by representing that he made more than $24,000 a month working at a local pharmacy technology company when he actually made little more than $28,000 a year...

 Garmin Ltd. executives pinned lackluster automotive GPS device sales, at least in part, on a U.S. market they said is shrinking by 25 percent and on a revenue-deferral practice questioned heavily by analysts.
During a Wednesday conference call about the navigation device maker’s second-quarter earnings, CFO Kevin Rauckman said Garmin’s (Nasdaq: GRMN) largest segment saw a 21 percent drop in North America. Although higher-than-expected sales in Europe and Asia partially offset the decline, the automotive segment experienced a 19 percent overall decrease for the quarter...

Garmin Ltd. comes up in an odd lawsuit filed Tuesday in federal court in Kansas.
Meet Henry Bartle, who lives in Oregon and owns several amateur-built airplanes. One is an experimental, kit-built plane that he started putting together in 2000.
About five years later, he was almost done but needed some help getting the airplane’s navigation and electronics wrapped up. So he asked neighbor Chris Schulte, a Garmin (Nasdaq: GRMN) employee, if he would use his employee discount to buy a navigational system designed by the company, which has its operational base in Olathe...

We absolutely loved our stay at the Library Hotel. It's a perfect little slice of bliss in the middle of crazy old town NYC!
We were looked after so well and the staff accommodated every request perfectly (even our request for a diner that would be open at 4 in the morning!). The atmosphere of the whole hotel is fabulous and is understatedly elegant.
Other reviewers have said that the rooms are small.... but lets be honest, it's NYC and all rooms are small. If we all had unlimited funds I'm sure we could find something bigger :o)
The room was perfectly sized and gave us all we needed - which was a base while we ran all over the city! The free coffee, tea, pastries and biscuits during the day were a huge bonus and the free evening wine and cheese was brilliant. The generosity of this hotel cannot be faulted!!
We hope to return again soon. We'd love to stay again.
Thanks to all the staff, you do an amazing job!!!
