Try AM 1220. If only it were FM and not sunrise to sunset.

Bad math? Conclusions they don't like? Minneapolis City Council does what it wants to anyway. Hence you have the new Vikings stadium that Minneapolis can't afford. And the 311 boondoggle.

An incoming department head who admits making such a critical decision based on rumors is not qualified to be the head of a Police Department. There should be a real search for a qualified chief.

I was one of the lucky ones. When my position was eliminated more than once I was sooo very lucky to find another position where I work. I know many who weren't. While I wasn't going to lose my house (a bit of luck in buying low and staying put long enough to pay it off), I lost many many nights of sleep worrying about losing my family's health insurance.
