Controversy Over Brownback Pick to Kansas Medical Board
Kansas Governor Brownback faced criticism over his appointment of attorney Richard Macias to the Board of Healing Arts. Opponents say his past representation of anti abortion protesters could bias board actions on physician misconduct and license discipline. Macias asserts neutrality and adherence to the law as he joins the 15 member panel.

Stray alligator finds home at Sunset Zoo in Manhattan
A 3 foot gator was wrangled off a curb and delivered to Sunset Zoo in Manhattan on Wednesday after being spotted on a residential street near Kansas State University. Zoo director Scott Shoemaker notes the animal is fairly young as adults can reach 12 feet and cites illegal ownership in Manhattan. The creature likely reflects owners losing track of exotic pets.
