Dineen looked for months before finding a house that allowed large pets, but he knew he needed a big place for Jake to grow up.
"Some places are just more conducive to pets," Dineen said. "If Jake has ample room to do what he wants, he rarely gets into trouble."

Love said some residents still had dogs or cats in Park 25 because of the grandfather clause. The clause states that people are not required to adhere to a new policy if it was not in place when they arrived.

"People that rent need to realize that the majority of landlords in Lawrence don't want to deal with the pet policy, 'Love said. "There is a big demand but the number of renting options available for pet owners is only going to decrease."
"Iused to have to leave him in a cage all day so he wouldn't get into my roommates stuff," Dineen said. "He used to whine so much in there that my fraternity brothers would end up letting him out and I'd find him later, asleep in Strong Hall."

While pets of busy college students often lack attention, there is no question that pets are very important to their long-time owners. But to most apartment managers in Lawrence,

pets are too much of a hassle and simply not worth it. Some of the biggest problems that many landlords have experienced after allowing pets were urine smells, torn-up property and too many unsanitary situations.
Record producer looks for unique performers
By Jim Patterson The Associated Press
NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Producer Jim Rooney is dedicated to the notion that the folk music on which he cut his teeth in the 1960s has a place in the sound coming from Nashville today.
"I've always considered country music to be part of folk music," Rooney said in an interview at Jack's Tracks, the recording studio where he does most of his work.
"The Carter Family, and Bill Monroe and Grandpa Jones and all those people — that's folk music to me."
As producer of records by Hal Ketchum, John Prine, Townes Van Zandt, Iris DeMent and, especially, Nanci Griffith, the 56-year-old Rooney has established himself as Music City's preferred producer for those a little left of center.
His two 1980s records with Griffith — "Once in a Very Blue Moon" and "Last of the True Believers" — instituted a much-copied acoustic sound that boosted artists such as Suzy Bogguss and Kathy Mattea up the charts.
"There's a lot of material you can hear on the radio that I wouldn't have anything to do with," Rooney
said. "I don't believe in following the market or trends."
Rooney's client list includes none of the young bucks singing to the line-dance crowd. Besides new records from Ketchum and DeMent, he worked with Canadian cowboy Ian Tyson, Barry & Holly Tashian and Dave Mallett. He's set to record folklies Tom Paxton and the Clancy Brothers.
Rooney was a musician, club manager and recording studio manager before moving to Nashville and becoming a recording engineer. He managed Club 47 in Cambridge, Mass., in the 1960s, where folkies such as Joan Baez and Tom Rush got started, and where he participated in the rediscovery of Son House, Mississippi John Hurt and other blues performers.
He went on to become a director of the Newport Folk Festival, then moved to Woodstock, N.Y., and managed Bearsville Studio, where he circulated among Bob Dylan, the Band, Van Morrison, Todd Rundegen and Paul Butterfield.
Looking for new adventures, Rooney moved to Nashville in 1976 and essentially started his career over from scratch. Acclaimed producer Cowboy Jack Clement, known for his work with Johnny Cash, took Rooney under his wing, insisting he learn to run a soundboard.
His first experience as an engineer was the distinctly nonfolk Vic Damone. His first production credit was an album by banjo-player Bill Keith, an old friend and member of Bill Monroe's Blue Grass Boys.
The turning point was meeting Griffith at a barbecue in May 1883. Rooney put together such veterans as drummer Kenny Malone and steel guitarist Lloyd Green with young acoustic performers, including Bela Fleck and Mark O'Connor to work with Griffith on "Once in a Very Blue Moon."
"It really chicked," Rooney recalled. "That to me, was like the first real fruits of what I'd been doing for the last eight years or so. And that kind of gave me the confidence to see that I could do this."
Rooney said personality has been country music's strength. "There's only one Johnny Cash. There's only one George Jones. And there's only one Nanci Griffith."
Rooney said the artists he wants to work with are the modern-day equivalents of Monroe and Duke Ellington.
"This isn't something they do as a hobby or a way to get rich quick — it is a passion with them," he said. "It is who they are and what they are and that's what they do from day No. 1 of their life until the day they die."
50 years ago this month, the world began to learn of the horrors of the Holocaust. As camps were liberated, men wearing pink triangles remained captive because being homosexual was illegal.
25 years ago this week, drag queens, street hustlers, and bull dykes lead a riot at the Stonewall Inn. It was not the first riot, nor was it the last. This one changed the world.
