Got questions for Louisville’s mayoral candidates? Chime in. [The 'Ville Voice]

Go see The Laramie Project at the University of Louisville’s Playhouse. April 14-18. $12 general/$10 student & faculty/$8 senior citizen. [Press Release]

Louisville may be the pretend 16th largest city, but it’s the 14th craziest. Something about these stats (everything?) doesn’t sound right. [The Daily Beast]

Yesterday Tyler Allen released his plans for education. The press release is a million years long and I’m not posting it. Feel free to hit the link to read up about it all. [Tyler Allen]

Republican candidate for Congress, Larry Hausman, will host a press conference and grand opening at his campaign headquarters today at 11:30. He plans to unveil his health care plan, something his campaign is referring to as a “free market solution for health care reform.” AKA it’ll be just like every other Republican idea, empty. [Press Release]

If you don’t feel like straight up giving cash to help in Haiti, you can go eat ice cream for a cause. [Consuming Louisville]

A State Senate committee approved Amanda’s Bill yesterday. But the group stripped provisions protecting dating partners from domestic violence. [Debby Yetter]
