(AP) – Charlie Daniels took a slightly different approach to his holiday album, “Hallelujah, It’s Christmas Time Again.” It’s got spoken word pieces as well as holiday songs. Daniels says he reads St. Luke’s version of the Christmas story, and he reads a story he wrote called “A Carolina Christmas Carol.” The songs are from his three previous Christmas albums. The CD is on sale at Buffet restaurants, including Old Country Buffet, Ryan’s, Hometown Buffet and Fire Mountain. Proceeds will benefit the Armed Services YMCA to help children of U.S. military.

The filing deadline for the next city election is January 22nd.
The City of Hays is over nine inches below average rainfall, having received, so far, just over 13 inches for the year.

Dougherty says the city will continue with conservation measures which have saved nearly 300 million gallons of water since implemented in 1992.

A burglary suspect is in a Wichita hospital after being shot in the middle of the night by a rural Sumner County homeowner.
Sumner County sheriff’s Capt. Mike Yoder told The Wichita Eagle the 31-year-old suspect is expected to survive. He was in stable condition Thursday at Wesley Medical Center recovering from a gunshot wound in the torso.

An economic consulting firm predicts Kansas would lose nearly 40,400 jobs next year if no deal is struck on the so-called fiscal cliff.
A state-by-state analysis posted Wednesday by Regional Economic Models Inc. says the private sector in Kansas would take the biggest hit, with nearly 35,000 jobs at risk. The firm says retailers would suffer the most as consumers cut spending.
The fiscal cliff refers to automatic tax increases and cuts in government spending that would effect Jan. 1 unless Congress and the White House reach a deal to avert them.
For Kansas, Regional Economic Models projects a loss of $2.75 billion to $3 billion in gross domestic product unless an agreement is reached in Washington.
