The Kansas Driver's License Handbook Kansas Driving Handbook Noncommercial Driver’s Manual AAMVA 09 Model Test Version (Revised April 2021) COPYRIGHT AAMVA All Rights Reserved 1 Kansas’ approximately 141,000 miles of roads keep our state’s economy moving between cities and towns - both rural and urban – and these roads help us stay connected. Even more importantly, these roads are built to keep safe our state’s most valuable assets- people like you. As drivers, we also have a big responsibility for keeping our roads safe, and this handbook was created with that purpose in mind. Whether you are a new or experienced driver, it will help prepare you to successfully complete your driving test, which focuses on shared “rules of the road” that help us all drive safely. One new item I want to highlight is the information about texting while driving. Because a growing number of traffic accidents and deaths have been caused by people sending text messages while driving, the Kansas Legislature updated our driving laws to prohibit this activity that can dangerously distract us from the road. I invite you to visit our website, www.ksrevenue.org, for answers to other questions you may have. The Kansas Department of Revenue strives to make your experience with the Division of Vehicles quicker, more user-friendly, and convenient. Our website gives you another way to take care of some services without leaving your house or waiting in lines. Sincerely, Governor Laura Kelly 2 Table of Contents Required Documents List

  • Jack Kerouac and the Influence Of
    JACK KEROUAC AND THE INFLUENCE OF BEBOP by David Kastin* _________________________________________________________ [This is an excerpt from David Kastin’s book Nica’s Dream: The Life and Legend of the Jazz Baroness, pages 58-62.] ike many members of his generation, Jack Kerouac had been enthralled by the dynamic rhythms of the swing era big bands he listened to on the radio as a L teenager. Of course, what he heard was the result of the same racial segregation that was imposed on most areas of American life. The national radio networks, as well as most of the independent local stations, were vigilant in protecting the homes of the dominant culture against the intrusion of any and all soundwaves of African American origin. That left a lineup of all-white big bands, ranging from "sweet" orchestras playing lush arrangements of popular songs to "hot" bands who provided a propulsive soundtrack for even the most fervent jitterbugs. Jack Kerouac: guided to the riches of African American culture… ________________________________________________________ *David Kastin is a music historian and educator who in 2011 was living in Brooklyn, New York. He was the author of the book I Hear America Singing: An Introduction to Popular Music, and a contributor to DownBeat, the Village Voice and the Da Capo Best Writing series. 1 After graduating from Lowell High School in 1939, Kerouac left the red-brick Massachusetts mill town for New York City, where he had been awarded a football scholarship to Columbia University. In order to bolster his academic credentials and put on a few pounds before his freshman season, Jack was encouraged to spend a year at Horace Mann, a Columbia-affiliated prep school popular with New York's middle-class intellectual elite.

  • Comprehensive Housing Market Analysis for Kansas City, Missouri
    The analysis presented in this report was completed prior to the COVID-19 outbreak in the United States and therefore the forecast estimates do not take into account the economic and housing market impacts of the actions taken to limit contagion of the virus. At this time, the duration and depth of the economic disruption are unclear, as are the extent and effectiveness of countermeasures. HUD will continue to monitor market conditions in the HMA and provide an updated report/addendum in the future.

    Interview with Ed Runge # AIS-V-L-2008-073 Interview # 1: October 24, 2008 Interviewer: Mark DePue Unknown: Okay, Mark. Tape is rolling, and just have your guest give us one clap to synch stuff. DePue: Just clap your hands. Runge: (claps) Unknown: Whenever you’re ready. DePue: Good morning. Today is Friday, October 24, 2008. My name is Mark DePue. I am the director of oral history at the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library. And today, it’s our distinct pleasure to talk to Dr. Edward Runge. Ed, welcome. Runge: Thank you! Good to be here, Mark. DePue: This is part of our “Agriculture in Illinois” project that we’re doing with the Illinois State Museum as well, one of fifty video interviews we’re doing. And unlike most of these, I thought it might be appropriate to kind of set the stage a little bit, or put this in some kind of a “time and place” if you will, with what’s going on in the United States. Dr. Runge is a trained agronomist; have spent your entire life doing that. I know that your specialty area is soil science, and for a person on the outside, that says, “Oh my, this might be kind of boring.” But I know this is going to be a fascinating discussion. And you have been at the heart of a lot of the things that are in the news right now. Of course, at this point and time, we’re about two weeks Ed Runge Interview # AIS-V-L-2008-073 away from a presidential election; things like ethanol production are very much in the news and in the public dialogue right now, and you’ve been at the heart of that discussion for many, many years.
