Forecaster Challenge is a new weather forecasting game offered by AccuWeather and developed and operated by Cantor Exchange, a division of Cantor Fitzgerald. This educational game exists to increase your weather awareness, both severe and non-severe, within a fun context by making it interesting to follow the weather differently than just looking at what is going on in your own neighborhood. This game provides users the opportunity to have goals to learn more about the weather, based on virtual currency and other participation incentives. Users can demonstrate their ability in weather forecasting and gain confidence in their overall situational awareness of upcoming weather events.

Participants make predictions on the weather and track the results of their predictions within the game whether they were correct or incorrect. Users are walked through a series of steps: they determine which prediction they would like to make, they confirm their prediction and they return to the site to see if they were correct.
Users receive AccuDollars for making correct predictions, but every prediction also costs AccuDollars to make, so predict wisely! AccuDollars have no intrinsic or other value, they are simply used as a measure of success within the game. Prediction risk/reward AccuDollar pricing is created automatically based on the likelihood that a given prediction will ultimately occur.
Examples of predictions:
At Least 2 of snow will fall on December 25th, 2017 in New York City.
Less Than 0.25 of rain will fall on November 13th, 2017 in Miami.
There will be no rain on December 4th, 2017 in Seattle.
Forecaster Challenge tests your ability to predict the weather at a particular location on a particular day, for which you will be rewarded accordingly with changes in your AccuDollar balance. There are also daily challenges and featured predictions that a user can directly participate in, geared toward presenting a relevant direct question of what will happen for a particular major weather event or how the weather might impact events like an upcoming major sporting event or outdoor entertainment event.
Forecaster Challenge is completely free for users to play.

We have launched Facebook Comments on our Climate Change Blog and now no longer have a need to have the comments done through the Forums.
AccuWeather wants users of the major social networks (AOL, Facebook, MSN and Yahoo) to be able to participate without having to sign up for these Forums, which is a lengthy and difficult process. This will bring the number of potential commenters on Brett's blog from the 10,000 here to over 1,000,000,000 (1 billion).
Unfortunately, if you don't use one of those services, you will not be able to participate.
This is also being done to more easily moderate and ban users who disrupt the conversations, because people can no longer participate anonymously.
If you don't want to use your personal Facebook account to post a comment on Brett's blog, page admins are also able to post from their Page Name.
As a result, this Subforum will close May 1, 2011 as part of a reduction in Subforums which have low traffic, since most of the traffic was in response to Brett's blog posts, conversations which can take place over on his blog now.
This action is not up for debate.

I am glad that someone finally got an answer out of NOAA as to why the computer forecast models are doing worse than usual with East Coast storms this season. It is something that many meteorologists, including those at AccuWeather and the Weather Channel, and obviously most of you, have noticed.
You can read the entire article here, the gist is below:
Simply put, Uccellini said, the models don't have as much skill at dealing with storms that originate from within the northern branch of the jet stream versus southern stream systems.
Feel free to discuss, but let's stay away from the conspiracy theories. I am relieved that we finally have an explanation, and I am curious to see if any high-profile meteorologists disagree.

RedBeard needed a new web page design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 42 designs submitted by 10 freelance designers.
Mission – PCAN's mission is to find a Medical Home for everyone in Orange County (Fla.) and to make health care available to everyone in the community.
Goals – PCAN's activities are consistent with the federal Health Resources and Services Administration's (http://www.hrsa.gov) goal to provide 100 percent access with zero percent disparity. To accomplish this goal, PCAN has been developing an integrated, comprehensive system of primary care centers. These centers provide medical homes for uninsured and underinsured residents of Orange County.
PCAN's target population includes Orange County, Florida residents who are uninsured or underinsured.
We need a one page design in PSD format. You are not required to slice the design up or code HTML/CSS but, keep in mind that we will. Don't design something that doesn't play well with the web.
The PCAN logo is attached and MUST be included in your design as is. The directors like the current color scheme (blues) of the site so I suggest you stick with that theme.
For layout, you are free to do what you want. We need a space for youtube video (standard embedded player size of 425x344) somewhere around the mid-page. The menu item for "1-2-3 Go!" will be deleted, other than that the content will remain substantially the same and will continue to be available in both English and Spanish so there needs to be a means to switch languages.

Samsung unveils usable UMPC
Q1 Ultra adds keyboard, decent screen
CeBIT Samsung has introduced its second-generation ultra-mobile PC - in one go addressing many of the key criticism of its first UMPC, the Q1. Crucially, the new model, the Q1 Ultra, delivers a higher resolution display and incorporates a thumb-operated QWERTY keyboard.
The handheld runs Windows Vista Home Premium, given room to breathe thanks to a native 1024 x 600 7in display - the original had an 800 x 480 screen. The QWERTY microkeyboard is split into two banks of keys on either side of the screen. Just as useful: the original Q1's joystick can now be used to steer the cursor around the screen, mouse-style.
There's an as-yet-unspecified ultra-low voltage Intel processor on board backed by 1GB of memory and 60GB of hard drive storage.
Connectivity comes courtesy of on-board 802.11b/g Wi-Fi, 10/100Mbps Ethernet and Bluetooth 2.0, as before. However, Samsung indicated the Q1 Ultra would also get a 3G HSDPA link for out-and-about broadband.
That said, runtime remains an issue, with the bundled battery delivering no more than 3.5 hours' usage, Samsung admitted. A higher capacity battery will be offered that takes the duration to six hours at the cost of increased weight.
Out of the box, the Q1 Ultra weighs in at 690g and measures 22.8 x 12.4 x 2.3cm. Other features include a 1.3-megapixel main camera and a front-mounted 0.3-megapixel camera for video calls. There's a fingerprint scanner too and 1.5W stereo speakers.
The Q1 Ultra will go on sale in May, Samsung said, but it has yet to decide what the price will be.

Last week I wrote a post called "The N-Word and Quinten Tarantino's Greatest Film" and subsequently that night appeared on Vocalo Radio, part of Chicago Public Media, to talk it over. Host Jesse Menendez and I had a really interesting discussion about both "Django Unchained" and the the politics of Tarantino's subversive film.
Since this appearance, I've thought of about eighty things I'd want to add (totally the whole Costanza-trying-to-eat-too-much-shrimp-again kinda thing), but overall I thought it was a pretty productive conversation. So, you know, listen to it.
Also, Ana Fernatt (aka Accidentally Sexy) has me on her "Hot Chicago Bachelors: Where Are They Now?" list, which, let's just face it, is all about my unnerring socio-political commentary.

The Waynesboro Maidens kept pace with second-place Northern on Tuesday with a 3-0 Mid-Penn Capital Division win against Shippensburg.
Waynesboro sweeps
SHIPPENSBURG — The Waynesboro Maidens kept pace with second-place Northern on Tuesday with a 3-0 Mid-Penn Capital Division win against Shippensburg.
The Maidens won by scores of 25-20, 25-20 and 25-17 to improve to 9-3 overall and 8-2 in the division.
"It was a lackluster performance. We were lucky to get away with the win," said Waynesboro coach Kim Saunders. "We are coming down the stretch and need performances to step up, be consistent and play well as a team."
Hannah Kauffman and Rachel Eyler each finished with 12 kills. Zoe Harris had seven kills. Megan Biesecker contributed to the offense with 30 set assists. Sierra Davies paced the defense with 17 digs, while Lynnae Stine had 14 digs and Alyssa Taylor added 12 digs.
"Rachel had a strong performance with some amazing blocks," Saunders said. "Her game was consistently error free, especially when needing to push for momentum."
The Maiden junior varsity team won 25-19, 25-16. Jenna Harne had five kills. Ciara Rosenberger, Hailey Stum and Kendra Kauffman had three kills apiece. Olivia Gardenhour had 14 digs and Rosenberger had 11 digs. Emily Bryan and Kaylie Yarnell had seven assists each.
Waynesboro continues its stretch of road matches today against Central Dauphin East in a non-league match. The Maidens are at Littlestown Thursday for another non-league match.
CVCS loses to
Cumberland Valley Christian School fell to Maryland School for the Deaf on Tuesday, 12-25, 25-22, 13-25, 18-25 in a non-league match.
"MSD has some good outside hitters, so I had to adjust our defense, and the girls made that conversion well," said CVCS coach Carole Rosenberry. "We just weren't able to tighten up our passing to run an effective offense.
"Laiton Suders, Brianna Miley and Marcella Carannante had great defensive games."
Anna Bunting had eight kills for CVCS. Karli Fogal contributed with 11 assists, while Suders had 10 digs and Carannante had nine service points. Miley added five points and Suders had four kills.
CVCS will play Broadfording Christian Academy on Friday in a Mason-Dixon Christian Conference match.
Maidens fall to
Mercersburg Acad.
MERCERSBURG — Mercersburg Academy snapped Waynesboro's three-game winning streak on Tuesday, 7-3 in a non-league game.
"We were very sluggish throughout most of the game," said Waynesboro coach Kelly Rock. "Saying you want to win and playing like you want to win are two different concepts. We must become a lot more aggressive to achieve the second."
The Blue Storm led 4-2 at halftime and outscored the Maidens 3-1 in the second half.
In the first half, Hollister Rolls scored an unassisted goal on a hard drive inside the circle. Lindsey Friese scored with an assist from Olivia Wolff.
Friese scored again in the second half, taking the ball one on one with the goalie.
Waynesboro won the junior varsity game 3-0. Maggie McGahen, Kiki Shindledecker and Katie Wise scored for the Maidens.
Waynesboro (3-8-1) hosts Big Spring Thursday in a Mid-Penn Colonial Division game.
Gettysburg wraps up win over G-A
GREENCASTLE — Completing a game that was suspended due to severe weather back on Sept. 11, Gettysburg wrapped up a 4-0 victory over Greencastle-Antrim in Mid-Penn Colonial Division action Tuesday afternoon.
The Warriors held a 17-6 advantage in shots with G-A's Dakota Crown and Jane Eberhardt combining to make 10 saves over the game's entirety.
Andrea Uhlig scored two goals for Gettysburg while Kelsey Slonaker and Sierra Hudson also found the back of the cage.
The Blue Devils (2-11-1) will play the Warriors again on Thursday in a regularly-scheduled game.
Indians fall to
Gettysburg 22-19
GETTYSBURG — Waynesboro took a 12-0 halftime lead but it didn't hold up as Gettysburg rallied in the second half for a junior varsity win Monday night at Warrior Stadium.
The Indians scored on a 102-yard interception return by Brady Beckner at the 7:50 mark of the first quarter.
Waynesboro scored again in the second quarter on an 18-yard off tackle run by Beckner. The two-point conversion failed and the Indians led 12-0.
The score was set up by a John Bupp blocked punt.
The Warriors scored 22 unanswered points to take a 22-12 lead into the fourth quarter.
The Indians scored on a sweep by Beckner with 4:50 left in the game. Orion Oldham added the point after touchdown to close the scoring.
Waynesboro had one last chance as Kurt Cosson and Matt Petrie hit and stripped a Warrior receiver and Beckner recovered the loose ball with 1:50 remaining. Quarterback Matt Peck connected with Ogochukwu Akamelu on three straight passes but the rally fell short on an interception to end the game.
"Brady ran the ball well, and we just came up a little short at the end," said Waynesboro coach Steve Myers. "I'm real proud of the kids' effort though."
Blue Devils sweep Greyhounds
SHIPPENSBURG — The Greencastle-Antrim middle school field hockey teams swept Shippensburg on Monday, with the Blue Devil seventh graders winning 3-0 while the eighth graders edged out a 1-0 victory.
Maggie Johnson, Ellie Strait and Keira Perry accounted for G-A's goals in the seventh-grade contest, with Johnson and Moriah Ricker picking up assists.
Olivia Remenick scored the only goal of the eighth-grade game, cashing in off an assist from Sydney Robertson.

Dental Hygiene
Is it worth buying?
Is it worth buying those $7 or $10 dental kits (that come with the explorer and mirror) that you see at the grocery and drug stores?
My opinion is no. If you want to see what is in your mouth with the mirror, that is ok, but I'm afraid if you are not taught how to use dental instruments properly, you can do some damage to your teeth and/or gums.

Megan Banick is currently part of the inaugural group of Fulbright Public Policy Fellows, working in the Guatemalan Ministry of Education. Megan's current tasks include consulting on various education topics such as intercultural-bilingual education quality, civic education through student government, and international standardized testing. While leading a project for the Ministry on parent perceptions of the importance of education for their children, she has traveled to rural Guatemala to interview and work with an indigenous village. Previously interning at a local NGO, Megan supported an agriculture and microbusiness training program. Megan reflects on her Spanish studies in the Modern Language Department:
My studies with the UWRF Spanish program gave me the ability to work with a very diverse group of people. I learned a great deal about Hispanic culture. Going on the Modern Language 376 Mexico J-Term Study Tour was one of the most useful experiences of my college career. The Modern Language Department also made it easy for me to transfer Spanish credits from my study abroad in Santiago, Chile. The combination of my Spanish language studies, study abroad in Mexico, and South America have made me a more dynamic candidate for jobs, and employers have commented on my ability to adapt when working in a multicultural situation. The Spanish department at UWRF allowed me to me to finish my degree and gain these experiences, thus paving the way for my future career. After graduating from the Marketing Communications and Spanish programs at UWRF, I was able to utilize my Spanish skills in a variety of ways. I have worked both with bilingual education in Spain and immigrant/refugee education in the United States. Having recently completed an MA in International Development at the Josef Korbel School of International Studies, my current interests include educational reform and political economic development in Latin America.

OAKLAND — One Goh, a former nursing student accused of killing seven people at a small East Oakland private college, was ordered Monday to a state mental hospital.
Goh, 44, will be sent to Napa State Hospital, where he will undergo treatment for numerous psychological issues that are preventing him from understanding court proceedings. Goh will remain at the hospital until doctors determine he is mentally fit to stand trial.
Goh could face the death penalty in the mass shooting last year. He is accused of using a .45-caliber handgun to kill six Oikos University students and a receptionist because the school refused to refund his tuition.
Goh had been attending nursing classes at the college before he dropped out in 2011. After dropping out, Goh requested a tuition refund and was denied, police have said.
On April 2, 2012, Goh walked into the school on Edgewater Drive, near Oakland International Airport, and began shooting. After the killings, Goh stole a car from the campus parking lot and drove to a Safeway in Alameda, where he was overheard talking with a family member about the slayings.
Alameda police were called and arrested Goh. He later confessed to Oakland police.
But since his arrest, Goh has been talking about seeing faces and hearing voices in his head, his attorney, assistant public defender David Klaus said. Goh has had frequent hallucinations and rants about being caught in the middle of a religious battle, Klaus has said.
Goh has also been on hunger strikes and has lost at least 50 pounds since being held at Santa Rita Jail, Klaus said.
Two court-ordered psychiatrists found that Goh suffers from paranoid schizophrenia and is mentally unable to understand court proceedings to assist in his defense.
Goh can remain in Napa State Hospital for at least three years, after which, if he is still found incompetent, the district attorney's office must file for a "Murphy conservatorship" that keeps Goh at the hospital.
Attorneys will receive progress reports on Goh's mental status every six months.
Goh will be forced to take medication, and if he is ever found competent to stand trial, he will face seven counts of murder and three counts of attempted murder.

Watch the presidential debates and get a heavy dose about whats wrong with politic discourse in America.
Mitt Romney and President Barack Obama tried to out-shout each other, ignoring moderators directives and plunging onward with accusatory tones, gross distortions, dismissive eye-rolls and a few snotty asides.
Terrific theater.
Lousy discourse.
And, according to education researchers and psychologists, an awful lesson for impressionable ears.
Fortunately, those same researchers say a young persons civic involvement is most heavily influenced by parental behavior, not politicians or media sources. ...
Interestingly, that kind of parental involvement showed results regardless of the familys ethnicity, income, education or employment. While pundits often ascribe political differences based on those factors, this in-depth research affirms the opposite. Constructive political conversation in the home elevates civic involvement no matter who you are or where youre from.
Encouraging open exchange of political thoughts leads to better critical thinking.
Family communication patterns that involve parents encouraging children to express political opinions are usually better oriented toward public affairs.
When parents lecture and emphasize deference to only their opinions, researchers find kids less critical of political claims and more likely to passively accept others opinions. Households where kids hear multiple viewpoints and are asked their opinion, produce curious kids who form their own opinions, and most importantly, act on them.

Is the town in Chicago suburbs that has everything you need to never leave. Where new buildings are always going up. Where we are all spoiled bitches and wanna-be-gangstas. But that is just some of us. St. Charles North and East high schools are the big rivals. The good old Charlestowne Mall where we all grew up at one point (where we went on a first date in middle school) AND just because you come from this hott town it doesnt mean you are spoiled rotten by daddy. Watch out Chicago you got some competition!
St. Charles North and East High Schools are full of designer purses and future abercrombie models.Thats what St. Charles is. Dont worry we all arent self absorbed. St. Charles

St. charles, where the ladies rock, and the fellas flock
by AiNtNoThInG September 29, 2005
A small city outside of St.Louis MO that has a strange mix of black people,rednecks,yuppies,rich people and poor people. It has a growth rate of 5% a year which makes sure that there is non-stop construction. St.Charles is the oldest city on the missouri river and constantly glorifies the fact that it was were the explorers louis and clark took off from. There is some crime and even some small amounts of gang activity. There are many homeless people but for some reason nobody notices all of the homeless people who hang out in the park at night (There is also many drug dealers and addicts). St.Charles is commonly reffered to as a small town in the news even though its not and is really quite large for a suburb. It is in many ways like St.Louis like the fact that st.charles gets more seedy as you go north or east as does St.Louis. My best advice is that you should try not to stay in saint charles for too long.

first real answer gets reps
My guess is because 3,000 registered posters have decided to post items of interest there.
usually their is about 2-3 hundred
guessing the Rick Ross thread
Maybe someone posted about something that is trending right now and is showing up in google search. That happened in the Bar when someone was posting about the Newtown shooting here.

Although virtualizing SQL Server was once unheard of, today it's pretty common. However, not all virtualized SQL Server instances are implemented in the best way. In fact, if you follow the New Virtual Machine wizard for either Microsoft Hyper-V or VMware vSphere, you're sure to end up with a less-than-optimal virtual SQL Server instance. Here are some tips I consider essential for optimizing your virtualized SQL Server instances.
Related: SQL Server Virtualization FAQs
1. Use SLAT-enabled 64-bit processors on the host.
The first, and one of the most important SQL Server virtualization tips, is to be sure your virtualization host is using the right processor. Although 64-bit processors are definitely a must-have, not all 64-bit processors support Second Level Address Translation (SLAT). Older servers in particular might not have SLAT support. SLAT moves the job of mapping virtual memory in the virtual machine (VM) to the host's physical memory from the hypervisor to the CPU itself. SLAT enables higher VM performance and scalability.
2. Keep a one-to-one relation between cores and virtual CPUs.
While not strictly required, having a one-to-one ratio ensures each VM will continually have available processing power. Available processing power is required for resource-intensive production workloads such as SQL Server.
3. Take advantage of dynamic memory.
To take advantage of dynamic memory, you need to be using the Enterprise Edition of SQL Server 2008, 2008 R2 or 2012, or the SQL Server Datacenter Edition of SQL Server 2008 or 2008 R2. In addition, the VM guest OS needs to support hot-add RAM. Hot Add RAM is supported by Windows Server 2012, 2008 R2 SP1, and 2003 R2 SP2 Enterprise and Datacenter editions. When a SQL Server workload causes the sqlserver.exe process to grow, the SQL Server database engine will detect the added memory and grow its buffers to meet the workload demand.
4. Use fixed virtual hard disks.
The fixed virtual hard disk (VHD) is the best choice for virtualized SQL Server systems that run a production workload. Dynamic VHDs are a good choice for labs, test environments, or noncritical production workloads. Dynamic VHDs use less disk space than fixed virtual disks but they don't provide the same level of performance. Workloads running on dynamic VHDs can experience occasional pauses when the dynamic disk needs to be extended. Differencing disks are really best suited for lab environments where disk space is at a premium. They use far less storage but they also have much lower levels of performance. Pass-through disks are an option for workloads with the highest I/O requirements, but they don't have the flexibility of fixed VHDs.
5. Separate your OS, data, and log files.
If you accept the default configuration that's offered by either VMware VSphere or Microsoft Hyper-V, you'll end up with a poor performing virtual SQL Server instance. The default configuration uses a single VHD for storage. Most production workloads with higher transaction rates would immediately run into disk contention problems. For production virtual SQL Server instances you should separate your OS, data file, and log files on to different VHDs or pass-through disks. It's important that you be aware of the physical disk implementation and make sure that the disks used for the guest OS and the SQL Server data and log files use separate spindles.

Mystery surrounded a flurry of bets in midweek on Luis Suarez heading to Arsenal, with bookmakers hurriedly slashing their odds and one even closing their market.
The Sweeper understands that the run of bets came after the Gunners made a speculative enquiry to Liverpool about the availability of the Uruguayan.
With the biggest transfer kitty in Arsenal's history available to him this summer, manager Arsene Wenger sanctioned the shock move for Suarez.
|Liverpool are 33/1 with bet365 to win the Premier League
Wenger plans to use a warchest of up to £100 million to make at least two marquee signings this summer, most likely in the striker and midfield positions.
The Suarez enquiry is believed to have come before Arsenal made an improved bid of £23.1m for Gonzalo Higuain, who is closing in on a switch from Real Madrid to Emirates Stadium.
As revealed by Goal earlier this week, Wenger was considering an alternative to prime targets Higuain and Wayne Rooney as he pushed for a proven, A-list striker who could be available at a good price and targeted the Liverpool hitman.
The Suarez move is now on the backburner, but the Arsenal boss is pressing ahead with pursuing his interest in top-level targets, with the likes of Marouane Fellaini and Cesc Fabregas understood to still be on his hit-list, as well as Ashley Williams and Julio Cesar.

The failing health of Nelson Mandela could throw Manchester City's early pre-season plans into doubt.
Manuel Pellegrini is scheduled to take his new charges to South Africa in ten days time to take part in the Nelson Mandela Football Invitational.
But the South African government are already at a high state of readiness should the inspirational leader fail to win his latest fight.
A national state of mourning would exist and numerous events cancelled.
City are set to face Supersport United in Pretoria on July 14th and AmaZulu FC in Durban on the 18th. It's understood the organisers will keep City in the loop.

Tom Ince could be heading for south Wales if two of his principal suitors, Cardiff City and Swansea City, can secure his signing this summer.
But the Blackpool winger is holding out for a return to Liverpool, who have reignited their interest in capturing their former Academy graduate.
Ince's parents, including father Paul, his manager at Bloomfield Road, are believed to be particularly keen on their 21-year-old son remaining in the north-west of England and close to the family's Cheshire home.
Former England international Paul will have a big say in his son's final destination, which he wants to be the right move both personally and professionally.

Gov. Jerry Brown will propose sweeping rollbacks to public employee pension benefits in California, including raising the retirement age to 67 for new employees who are not public safety workers and requiring state and local employees to pay more toward their retirement and health care, according to a draft of the plan obtained Wednesday by The Associated Press.
The governor will also propose Thursday a mandatory "hybrid" system in which future retirees would get their retirement from a guaranteed benefit and a 401(k)-style plan subject to market whims. For employees with at least 30 years of service, retirement benefits would aim to replace about 75 percent of an employee's salary through retirement funds and Social Security, according to the draft.
The plan, as drafted, also would end so-called pension "spiking" that lets employees boost their payouts by including overtime and other benefits, and end the practice of buying additional service credits.
"It's time to fix our pension systems so that they are fair and sustainable over a long time horizon," Brown said in a prepared statement to the AP. "My plan raises the retirement age and bans abusive practices like "spiking" and "air time" while mandating that public employees pay an equal share of pension costs."
The administration estimates its proposal would save about $900 million annually.
Brown's plan would require approval from the Legislature, where union-allied Democrats are likely to balk at some of the significant rollbacks, and where Brown failed to win consensus on pensions with Republicans last spring.
Several parts of the plan would also require voter approval, including extending many of its provisions to employees at California's public university systems, and Brown's goal to add two independent, public members to the board of the California Public Employee Retirement System, the nation's biggest public pension fund. The board has come under scrutiny during an influence-peddling investigation by the attorney general's office alleging fraud and kickbacks through middlemen known as placement agents who seek investment business.
Kevin Bassett, chief of staff for Senate Minority Leader Bob Dutton, R-Rancho Cucamonga, had not seen the governor's proposals but said many of them sound similar to ideas raised in discussions between Republican lawmakers and the governor last spring.
"We want to have a system that's sustainable, that's fair for employees, fair for taxpayers and that addresses our unfunded liabilities, that addresses our annual cost challenges," Bassett said.
Dave Low, chairman of the union-backed group Californians for Retirement Security, was lukewarm about the plans Brown outlined. Low and other labor officials were briefed on the plan Wednesday.
"The governor has indicated that labor will not like many of his proposals. He is right," Low said in a written statement.
"Many of the governor's proposals circumvent collective bargaining. Unions across California have negotiated major retirement concessions, including increased payments by employees and two-tier benefits. These concessions have already saved the state, cities, counties and other entities hundreds of millions of dollars," Low said.
Earlier Wednesday, a joint Senate-Assembly panel held a hearing on the crisis facing California, where the recession has pummeled once-flush government pension funds that have tumbled in value with the stock market and real estate prices. The state has promised government retirees billions of dollars in future benefits that it might not be able to pay.
Estimates for the gap between what is owed to current and future public retirees, and what will be available to pay them, have varied widely with the fluctuating economy.
A report last year by the Stanford Institute for Economic Policy Research said that retirement funds for 2.6 million California teachers, state workers and university employees together faced long-term gaps of over $500 billion. The California Public Employees' Retirement System has $75 billion in unfunded future pension liabilities, and the state is on the hook for an estimated $51.8 billion in unfunded retiree health care costs.
Brown's latest plan would require new employees to work at least 15 years before they are eligible for any state-funded retiree health care. When retirees become eligible for Medicare, the state would pay only the premiums for that federal program, rather than the more generous benefits now offered.
The administration also wants to require all public employees to contribute at least half the annual cost of funding their pension benefits. Under current systems, some employees do pay that much but others pay little or nothing, leaving the full burden on taxpayers.
Pension talks with the GOP broke down this spring as Republican lawmakers sought deeper rollback than Brown had proposed, including the mandatory "hybrid" system he is now seeking and a statewide vote on permanent pension reform that would ensure changes made now couldn't be easily overturned in the future.
Some of the elements of the plan Brown will unveil Thursday were included in previous proposals, according to the draft. Other parts of the proposal include:
_ Raising the retirement age from 55 to 67 for non-public-safety employees; public safety officials who can now retire as young as 50 would have to work longer, but the calculation would be based on their ability to perform.
_ Prohibiting pension pay holidays, in which employers or employees suspend pension contributions.
_ Calculating benefits based on the highest average compensation over a three-year period, rather than the current system which bases it on a single year of final compensation, which has been used to artificially boost pension payments.
_ Prohibiting retired employees who serve on public boards and commissions from earning any retirement benefits for that service.
Union officials said at Wednesday's hearing that a typical state worker earns an annual pension of about $31,000, but benefits can vary widely. A highway patrolman with 28 years of service can take home a pension of more than $90,000 a year, said David Lamoureux, a deputy chief actuary with the state Public Employees' Retirement System. According to one tally cited by Republicans, more than 9,000 state employees are receiving six-figure pensions.
Associated Press writer Michael R. Blood in Carson, Calif., contributed to this report.

AKRON, Ohio (AP) — An Ohio teenager who apparently made a bid for leniency was facing sentencing in a deadly plot to lure men with phony Craigslist job offers.
The sentencing Friday in Akron was delayed earlier this week amid talks that could lead to 17-year-old Brogan Rafferty testifying against his mentor, the alleged triggerman.
Without a last-minute deal, Rafferty faces a possible life prison term without hope of parole.
Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine, whose office investigated the killings, told The Associated Press on Thursday there was no deal. He made no mention of any continuing talks to strike a deal.
There was no comment from the defense. Attorneys are under a gag order.
Rafferty, from Stow near Akron, was convicted last month on aggravated murder and attempted murder charges in the killing of three men and wounding of a fourth.
His co-defendant, Richard Beasley, 53, has pleaded not guilty and will be tried in January.
Judge Lynne Callahan postponed the sentencing during a brief court session Monday but offered no explanation.
The postponement came after prosecutors, including attorneys from DeWine's office, and defense attorneys met privately in the judge's chambers.
Rafferty's cooperation against Beasley could give him a chance for freedom at some point — perhaps in 20 or 30 years.
Prosecutors say the victims, all down in their luck and with few family ties that might highlight their disappearance, were lured with phony offers of farmhand jobs on Craigslist last year.

WESTCHESTER COUNTY, N.Y. -- Westchester County Executive Rob Astorino, along with college leaders across the area, are concerned that private colleges could be hit hard under new legislation that offers free college tuition to all New York students.
"If you think college is expensive now, just wait until it's free," Astorino said.
The program, which begins this fall, offers students who attend a SUNY or CUNY institution an Excelsior Scholarship (free tuition) provided their families earn less than $100,000 per year.
Citing research by Georgetown University and a study provided by The Commission on Independent Colleges & Universities in New York the group of private college presidents said they expect significant drops in enrollment, causing unintended economic consequences while limiting student choice in higher education.
Astorino concluded that the commission's study and the concerns of private colleges indicate a devastating economic impact to Westchester as well as the state.
"In Westchester, this proposal could mean the loss of 5,000 jobs supported by our private colleges," Astorino said. "The governor's plan threatens to become a double whammy: taxpayers will be asked to pay more to cover the rising public school budgets as more students flock to them. And students in private schools will be looking at higher tuition bills as their schools have to react to declining enrollment."
Students receiving the assistance must agree to stay in New York for at least four years following graduation. For more on that, click here.

One thing that worries me about marginalisation is this.When groups with strong beliefs start to find that their views are being mocked and marginalised, and their power is diminishing and vanishing, they become more likely to take violent action. When they feel under attack, they tend to fight back. Hard.Sure - this does not apply to ALL groups that become marginalised. Atheists tend not to blow things up when they have no power….but, remember that we are the rational ones. We should not forget that - to the believer - he is not only in the right but he has the ultimate authority in the universe on his side.At the moment, the 1% of fundy believers are - I believe - restrained because they generally think that the world is running their way. I greatly fear the world where there is ONLY 1% of believers….because those believers will be the ones most convinced that their god is on their side in the war with the unbeliever. The whole world will be against them, so they will have nothing to lose - and everything to win as they die a matyr's death.A world without religion would be great. A world with a vague majority of religion is bad, but bearable. It is the world with a small minority of religion that really really worries me.
That doesn't refute my point, it supports it. Why did Constantine convert to Christianity? Why did the people accept it? Because the Christians had already marginalized the Hellenists and permeated their society to a level where they were becoming the majority. If the majority were still faithful Hellenists, you can be sure they would have murdered their atheist blaspheming emperor for converting to this new heathen religion.
History would disagree with you. It's been done a million times.
Not really an accurate analogy at all. Does not remotely apply to this situation.
And how do you suggest atheists magically become powerful, without marginalizing, converting, and humiliating the theists?
Another example that might be educational: The belief that "God hates fags" and that, following from this, gays are abominations and don't deserve the same rights as others.This view has been marginalized by much of society. Is that oppression? Is that wrong? Don't dodge this time, please, because this very sense of "marginalization" is what Joe is advocating.
It is good that kcrady is not suggesting we go around mocking random people on the street. I am not sure if Joe is on the same page though.
I don't see that as oppression or wrong.
It may very well be the sense of marginalization that Joe is advocating but you understand my issue with the word "marginalization" don't you? Same issue I had with the word "cleanse" and as far as the method Joe is describing I believe you will find that I have been fairly consistent on this forum in regards to my belief that you can attract more flies with honey than you can with vinegar[1]. It really should be no surprise that I also oppose Joe's presentation. 1. I can go back and provide links if you want me to.
I always say what I mean. But sometimes I'm a sarcastic prick whose tone can't be properly communicated via text.
kcrady, I am assuming that your definition of "marginalization" is the same as Joe's, so I'm not going to reply to those parts, as it has been taken care of.
Actually, you are. I wasn't arguing; I was merely stating a fact. Also note how I didn't mention "mockery" or any tactic other than "logical arguments".
Why should it if non-ridicule achieves the same thing without the increased tension between atheists and theists?
I gotta say, I very much doubt this.The audience would most likely agree with you, according to USA statistics. Why would you feel shame unless you already believed that your beliefs were ridiculous? Most creationists do not realize that their beliefs are ridiculous.
Even open minded individuals would ignore people who mock them. Why should you pay attention to someone who just wants to call you an idiot?
I did not know this. I will consider if the increased tension is worth the potential benefit and get back to you.
Moral outrage is not only acceptable but should be a part of everything, IMO.
Also, I don't like how your last sentence implies that you "knew" I would disagree. I'd call this "strawman", but I'm not exactly sure if it fits.
Let me rephrase: Minorities (in the sense that they have opinions that other people do not share) cannot marginalize the majority (in the sense that they have opinions that other people share).
If I had to guess, semantics is the issue. And it does make a difference what words one uses, because they help shape the goals.
Where does this website use mockery as a tool?
If God is imaginary, then religion is a complete illusion. Christianity, Judaism and Islam are pointless. Belief in God is nothing but a silly superstition, and this superstition leads a significant portion of the population to be delusional.
Also, you should check the thread by a member asking what its purpose is.
Imagine that I have an adult friend. Once you get to know her, you realize something. She believes in Leprechauns. She believes in them with all her heart. Now, what do you think of my friend? Her beliefs are harmless, are they not? By speaking out loud to the Leprechauns living invisibly in her house, she feels less lonely and happier. And yet... there is something creepy about it, isn't there? Yes there is. It is creepy because you know that my friend is completely and totally delusional. She has lost her ability to distinguish the imaginary from the real. Would you want my friend holding a position of responsibility in our society? For example, would you want my friend to be in a position where she can launch nuclear weapons at foreign countries? Probably not. Would it be appropriate to talk to my friend and try to help her? Would it be appropriate to heal this delusion? Once you answer these questions honestly, you will be able to understand what is going on with WhyWontGodHealAmputees.com. There is no difference between God and the Leprechauns. God is completely imaginary, and we can help you to understand this.
It is time for Americans, both religious and non, to openly discuss the evidence showing that God is imaginary. Let's stop hiding the discussion, or attacking it. Let's talk openly. Let us have an honest, open, rational, civil conversation about all of the evidence that we have seen in this book. If we have that debate in an open forum, the majority of us will reach agreement that God is imaginary.
As I have explained, marginalization of people for their beliefs and thoughts rather than their actions is unfair.
Do you approve of marginalization of atheists for their thoughts and (lack of religious) beliefs? If not, why the double standard?
I don't care about what Hitchens and Dawkins do. I hadn't even heard of them until I joined this site. (So much for "spearheading the modern atheist movement").And, as I have said, I am now rethinking my position on mockery.

I had an experience in college...
Men do more 'dirty work' than women, both in the literal sense that the work causes one's clothing to become dirty, and in the metaphorical sense that violence and war are 'dirty'. This is a rational conclusion based on empirical evidence and personal observation. The logical conclusion would be that women are less inclined to such 'dirty work'. Statement of fact is not insulting unless one is insulted by the truth.I was not insulting women, I was questioning your masculinity.

Do you have any actual data to back up your apparent bigotry?
No topic is beyond questioning.
See, nihilanth wanted his religious beliefs to be accepted as universally-known claims, too. That was his schtick. Didn't get him very far, because he was held to a higher standard of evidence than that. I doubt you'd have let him get away with that sort of crap. Ditto me, with you.Further, you claimed to have empirical evidence supporting your original claim. Was this a lie? If not, then you should be able to cite that evidence. If so, then you ought to retract, if not the original claim about women, at least the claim to have empirical evidence.I don't give bigoted crap an evidential pass as "obvious". Sorry. Put up or retract it.
<snip>If you wouldn't advise a moderate, accommodationist approach to David Icke's lizard hypothesis (or any other brand of silliness), why single out Christianity for special treatment? Shouldn't we be nice to all the whackaloons?
Sorry, I'm not following you here. What straw man do you think I'm arguing against?
No one here expects that mockery or any other tactic will result in a "complete victory" where everyone becomes a Bayesian Master. You're arguing against a straw man.
They know they are, to actual experts in the relevant scientific fields. Otherwise they'd be eagerly lining up to publish in scientific journals and win Nobel Prizes. It's not difficult to demonstrate that YECism is ridiculous in the process of mockery. Just visit one of the "Noah's Flood" threads right here on this forum.
Which is why mockery should not be used against open-minded theists who (inconsistently) practice rationality. All along, I've been arguing for different tactics in different situations. How is this hard? You yourself mock Christian beliefs at the bottom of every one of your posts. Obviously you don't think it's always counter-productive.
OK. Do you think your sig quote (not to mention the post it's quoting) equating God to Santa is worth the increased tension with any Christian here who might read it? Since perfectly polite billboards saying things like "Don't Believe in God? You're Not Alone" raise seething "tension" from Christians, do you think maybe those atheist groups should just STFU, accept Christian hegemony and be grateful their Christian overlords don't burn them at the stake?
So far the core of your position has been, "We don't want to piss the Christians off! They'll kick our asses!" That's the reason you've given for why we should should never use mockery. What if our anger and outrage pisses them off (it does)? If that's a good reason to censor ourselves WRT mockery, isn't it equally valid as a reason to censor our outrage?
My last sentence was a question. It wasn't meant to imply I "knew" you would disagree (or agree). I didn't know, which is why I asked.
Yes they can. It just takes time and work (and sometimes, more than that) from the minority. Homosexuals are a minority. Blacks are a minority. Both groups have significantly changed the moral and cultural zeitgeist, swimming against the current of a WASP heterosexual majority opposition with cultural privilege. Then, after it was done, and the change (mostly) complete, acceptance of blacks and homosexuals as equals became the majority view.
<snip>Notice particularly the use of the word silly. That is mocking. Also, the writer compares Jesus to leprechauns, mermaids, and Santa many many times. He is using them as analogy, by comparing their beliefs to something we know is ridiculous, he is mocking them. By the way you could think of 'ridiculous' as meaning 'worthy of ridicule'.
I couldn't find that thread, but let's examine the content of the website that demonstrates it's intended goal.<snip>
An appeal to fairness is an emotional, not logical, argument.
We don't wait until their first overdose to teach our children to stay off drugs. We don't wait until Johnny's first rape to teach our sons to respect women. We should be marginalizing the belief that prayer is a substitute for proper medical care, not waiting until that belief manifests itself and someone's baby dies.We marginalize belief all the time in order to prevent harmful action. It's called education.
First because atheists are right, second because atheism is not a harmful belief.
Obviously, as you just mocked me. Congratulations! However, your lack of knowledge does not mean my assessment is flawed. It only reveals your lack of knowledge.
I was not insulting women, I was questioning your masculinity.
Religions need books because they don't have gods.
What I am inclined to believe is that women are discouraged from such endeavors by chauvnistic cultural influences, such as yours.
Are you seriously trying to cite the lack of diverse opposition to a small part of one of your recent posts as a significant point in your favor?
Quote from: Azdgari on November 30, 2011, 02:18:22 AMWhat I am inclined to believe is that women are discouraged from such endeavors by chauvnistic cultural influences, such as yours.So either: A.) Women want those jobs but men prevent them from taking them, therefore women are submissive to men, and unable or unwilling to fight for their rights, which would make me right. ORB.) Women don't want those jobs, which would make me right.
And the fact that you consider my position that women are less inclined towards violence than men an insult towards women only implies that you think violence is a virtue, and that women should posess it.
I am getting pretty tired of being called an accommodationist when I suggest equal treatment for everyone.
...my signature is a joke.
What does WRT mean?

Atheism is not a belief at all, but is that everything? "Atheists are right"?Guess what? Scientific theories are also "wrong". (Technically, "incomplete" would be the more adequate term here, depending on your PoV.) Should we marginalize those?

"Masculinity" is a meaningless term for me. Define it.
A noble goal, but do religious beliefs deserve equal treatment as rational beliefs? Are they equally valid belief systems?
It is mockery with an element of humor, but certainly mockery.
I wasn't referring to the forum, I was referring to the website www.whywontgodhealamputees.com, which was created by one man.
How many people are killed by the KKK these days? Would you say more or less since they've been marginalized?
Please don't ask questions you already know the answer to, it slows down progress. However, I'll indulge lest you claim I'm dodging.
<snip>These are all harmful beliefs that some people hold that used to be more common, which today have been and continue to be marginalized. $10 says someone takes one of those out of context to attack me some time this week, .
Semantics, strawman.
And by the way when, as often happens, a scientific theory is proven wrong, and it's continued belief and practice would be harmful or useless, it is marginalized. Alchemy, astrology, eugenics, etc.
My congratulations was not sarcastic. I consider your use of mockery to make your point progress in this debate and a tacit acknowledgement of it's efficacy.
You already know what it means, and you know the context in which I used it. This is the last time I indulge you by wasting time explaining something that doesn't need to be explained.
Aggression is a trait useful in certain types of confrontations that is commonly found in males in higher abundancies than females, likely due to the higher presences of both adrenaline and testosterone. I was suggesting that such a confrontation may occur at some point, and that your inability or unwillingness to display aggression on the same levels as your male peers may hinder your performance in the encounter.This should not be taken as an insult to women, as aggression is not necessarily a desired trait in females.
Do your own thing. And overdo it!
Or women are socially conditioned to not want those jobs (just as men are socially conditioned the opposite way), which would make you wrong. It has nothing inherently to do with being female. It has to do with the conditioning, which could be done to anyone.
You were not admonishing Lucifer to be more violent. You were admonishing him to be less averse to "dirty work".Why try to revise history when it's right there in your post?
Men do more 'dirty work' than women, both in the literal sense that the work causes one's clothing to become dirty, and in the metaphorical sense that violence and war are 'dirty'.
It seems to me your argument boils down to just not wanting to hurt anyone's feelings. Well, you can sit on the sidelines if you don't want to get your dress dirty, but the men have work to do. You can thank us when it's over.
Validity is not the issue here. People have the right to believe whatever they damn well please, as long as it doesn't hurt other people.
It takes time before an oppressed minority is tired of being oppressed and decides to take action. From what was posted here, they were still in power about 90 years ago.
If I knew the answer, I wouldn't ask it. Stop assuming that I know what you mean. It slows down progress.
Some of the beliefs you presented about drugs are correct. Drugs do make you feel good on the short term, drugs do make you see God (sometimes; depends on what you're on and how high you are), et cetera.

This argument (yours) boils down to an ad-hominem (and a bad one at that). If you want, I could get a few of my friends to vouch for my aggressiveness.

Makes learning how to ski pure fun, with Bend-X Technology.
Whether on or off the piste, the Atomic Vantage Girl I makes learning how to ski 100% pure fun. Bend-X Technology in the binding area enables young girls to bend their skis no matter how light they are, so good contact with the snow is guaranteed at all times even with little power from little legs. Add to that a Piste Rocker and turning couldn't be easier. The width and shape of the ski are precisely matched to the ski length, so every skier gets precisely the right ski for them. If you start out on a ski as fun as the Atomic Vantage Girl I, you'll be hooked on this sport for life.

Publisher's description
Recuva is a free file recovery program that makes it extremely easy to locate files that were once thought to be lost forever. The wizard-like approach and intuitive user interface will appeal to all user levels.
The program opens with a very sleek, professional user interface. We found it extremely easy to navigate right off the bat, but it does employ a wizard to walk you through the file recovery process. All we had to do was select either the C or D drive, or both, from a drop-down menu. If you have a general idea of where the file may be, you can pick from a list of file paths, including Pictures, Music, Documents, Video, and Compressed files. As soon as we clicked the Scan button, the program immediately went to work, and within seconds, it had pulled up a very long list of deleted files and their respective paths. The program's Advanced view gave us more detailed information of each file, including the file's size and creation time. Recovering selected files was also extremely easy and involved simply checking off the file or files and clicking the Recover button. Within seconds, the file was recovered and saved to our location of choice.
Though we don't think you'll need it, we were disappointed to find that the program doesn't include any kind of Help file. It does, however, include a link to the publisher's Web site, which contains a forum. All in all, Recuva is an excellent choice for anyone in need of reliable file recovery
Recuva (pronounced "recover") is a freeware Windows utility to restore files that have been accidentally deleted from your computer. This includes files emptied from the Recycle bin as well as images and other files that have been deleted by user error from digital camera memory cards or MP3 players. It will even bring back files that have been deleted by bugs, crashes and viruses.

She Said…
One dish two versions. That's what we got going on today. Nachos! Rob of Countryside Food Rides and I got together and figured we could do this He Said, She Said type post where we choose one dish and see how two different people would interpret it, particularly a guy and gal. You must check out Rob's Grill Photo Index, filled with incredibly delicious foods coming from his grill, Wok, and get this- Wood Fired Oven (WFO). Did I mention he has a smoker too? Yeah. This guy has it going on with cooking toys. Not only that, he is into bikes, I think he has three. His posts are also indexed by date, destination, and bike or other mode of transportation. One mode that caught my eye was the Eddie Bauer 01-750MAC. Never heard of that bike, and no wonder, its his kid's stroller and has to be one of the funniest post I had read in a while. But what I found most intriguing about the post was his description of his hobby Pizza Making in his WFO. I hope he teaches us more about it on his blog. Although we have never met in person and are hundreds of miles apart, I had a good time cooking Nachos with Rob, and I can't wait to see what he created. But what I really hope to gain is his Atomic Buffalo Turds recipe. Rob?
Building the Perfect Nachos- My Version
For me, Nachos is all about building layers of flavors that compliment and work well together. I like smokey (my chili and TJs Smoke seasoning blend), creamy (sour cream), sweet and spicy (peppers), tangy (beer queso), herby (cilantro), sour (lime juice), salty (chips), crispy (chips), and a variety of textures for my Nachos. Click on the photo above for the elements of my Nachos.
One thing I decided to try with this Nacho building was adding that element of surprise, by slightly adapting my friend Rindy's Perfect Hot and Sweet Pickles for these Nachos. Instead of using pickles, I used jalapenos and left out the hot sauce. I was very giddy with the results which were very spicy hot, very sweet, and a very garlicky little peppers for my Nachos. The photo above is the jalapenos layered with sugar and garlic, my adaptation recipe below.
Here is where my friendship and following Joan's blog Foodalogue comes in to play. I have followed Joan for about 4 years now, and one of the greatest things I have learned from her is that just because the meal is cooked does not mean it is finished. She encourages her readers to be creative and deliberate in choosing a dish's finishing touches, such as a splash of balsamic, that pinch of pepper, that drizzle of good olive oil, a squeeze of citrus, or a dice of color like red peppers or fresh herbs. Lately when my meal is (almost) finished I ask myself, What Would Joan Do- WWJD? Giggle. With my Nachos, I answered that question with cilantro, limes, and Trader Joe's Smokey Spice Blend to grind over the Nachos. What a bang the little blend gave to that initial bite into my Nachos, while my taste buds worked their way through layers upon layers of flavors that all worked. Just plain ole worked.
Here is Zuzu building his Nachos in an aluminum pie plate. The chips and some cheese went into the pan, the pan went under the broiler for a minute, and the hot chips and melted cheese were topped with whatever he wanted. This is a really fun idea for entertaining guests, and very easy too. I think we will be doing this more often.
Even though I do not have the cool cooking toys like Rob, I think I built a mighty fine Nacho. Now if I only had one of Rob's nifty helmet cameras, my photo shoots would be a cinch. Look Ma no hands!
Sweet Hot Jalapenos- adapted from Rindy's Perfect Pickles
1 32 ounce jar Hot sliced Jalapenos
2 cups sugar
2 T. flaked or minced dried garlic, not powdered or granulated
Instructions for Jalapenos:
Turn jar of jalapenos over in a strainer and allow to drain for about 4 hours. Remove peppers from jars and start layering the peppers with sugar and the garlic. Press down each layer with the back of a ladle. It will all fit! Secure lid and store on countertop for 4 days, turning the jar over each day. You can leave this at room temperature or store in the refrigerator. Makes 1 quart.

Stir in garlic and cook for one minute. Add beef and cook until browned. Add the chili powder, paprika, cumin, cinnamon, chipotle, and cocoa powder. Stir well and cook a few more minutes, the add the tomatoes and bacon. Stir well, add salt to taste. Let simmer on low heat for about 30 minutes.
Beer Queso
8 ounces freshly grated pepper jack cheese
8 ounce freshly grated mild cheddar cheese
2 T. flour
1 cup beer
1 t. mustard powder
Kosher salt to taste
Instructions for Queso:
In a large pan over medium heat, bring beer to a simmer. Toss cheeses in a bowl with flour to coat and slowly whisk into beer. Add mustard powder and cook until the queso is thickened and smooth. Do no allow to come to a boil. Check your sauce to see if salt is needed, and salt if required. Remove pan from heat, and keep warm.
Note- Do not use pre-grated, packaged cheese, it gets gloppy.

Sliced Green onions
Trader Joe's Roasted Corn- in the freezer section, cooked and drained
Sour Cream thinned with a little milk to drizzle

Edgewater residents are on track to see an improved Bryn Mawr Red Line station.
The CTA board on Tuesday approved authorizing an agreement with the city to use local funding to help pay for enhancements at the station, which include a stationhouse overhaul and an elevator.
The Edgewater station was not part of this year's project to improve seven North Side Red Line stations by fixing viaducts, replacing lighting and signs and painting walls and stairwells. The CTA finished that project earlier this month.
About 6,000 riders board the CTA at the Bryn Mawr station each weekday.
For Bryn Mawr, the CTA has identified $25 million in funds for improving the station. Fifteen million dollars comes from state and federal funds while $10 million comes from tax increment financing, money intended to promote redevelopment in certain areas in the city.
Details of what specific work will occur at the station and a timeline for when work will begin have not yet been determined, the CTA said. Staff for Edgewater Ald. Osterman (48th) did not return a request for comment.

Moonless Sky Wins Fran's Valentine (Benoit Photo)
From Santa Anita Publicity ARCADIA, Calif. (May 21, 2017)–Although beaten 2 ¼ lengths, fast improving Moonless Sky was awarded the win via a stewards' disqualification in Sunday's $125,000 Fran's Valentine Stakes for Golden State Series eligible fillies and mares at Santa Anita. Trained by Eddie Truman and ridden by Kent Desormeaux, the 4-year-old California-bred daughter of Bold Chieftain got a mile on grass in 1:33.57.
In winning, 4-year-old Moonless Sky, who was originally based in south Florida, is now a perfect three for three in Truman's barn and in addition to picking up her first stakes victory, she also provided her California-based sire Bold Chieftain with his first stakes winner as a stallion. She was bred by Willow Tree Farm.
Ridden by Flavien Prat, favored Pacific Heat, who rallied from last at the quarter pole, ducked in a furlong out, causing Moonless Sky, who appeared full of run, to break stride. Although impeded, Moonless Sky kept to her task, finishing second, a half length in front of Roo's Valentine.
