Park Board Meeting

All local citizens! You are invited to the City Park Board open meeting!

Come along and find out what is happening in your local park. The City Park Board open meeting is schedule for Wednesday, October 12th at 8 p.m. in conference room B of the public library. Agenda items include the following: funding for new snow blowers, construction of a temporary outdoor ice rink for the winter, and next month's Winterfest Bonfire Ball to raise money for equipment for the children's playground.

Snow blowers will enable us to keep the park open all year round, even in the heaviest snow. With the park open all winter, we have decided to convert the central pond into an ice rink. Local business man Hans Brent has donated $10,000 towards the cost. Winterfest Bonfire Ball tickets will be on sale at the meeting.

The Federal Department of Labor has announced that the unemployment rate has decreased this year by 2%. This decrease has surprised experts who predicted a 3%-5% increase. In addition to the decrease, the federal government has released research that shows the dollar value has improved compared to its international exchange rate at this time last year. This improvement has also come as a surprise to analysts who predicted the dollar would remain stable. The Federal Department of Labor attributes these improvements to a smaller workforce.

Economic analysts have gone on record to say that these changes should prove beneficial for the country's general fiscal health over the course of the next year, as competition should increase and consumership will improve. The increase in value of the dollar is usually attributed to higher salaries throughout the workforce. Investors have also responded positively to this information as the stock market has experienced consistent growth over the past two quarters.

Reality television shows are becoming increasingly poplar around the United States. One recent show, Wannabe, depicts a group of five men and five women who live in the same house for several months without contact with the rest of the world. Each week the participants take singing lessons and perform their songs for the audience and the judges. Also, every weekend one participant must leave the program, as they are voted off the show either because of lack of singing talent or because the other participants do not like living with them. The television audience participates in the voting process, and an average of two million votes per week are entered by viewers, either by phone or Internet. The final two remaining "Wannabes" earn a recording contract with a famous company.

Line Two Reopens

Urbania's subway line number two opened again for full service on Tuesday. An electrical malfunction caused a blackout in three of the line's stations over the weekend. Operator of the line, Cobain Transport, closed the line on Saturday morning to repair the problem. Cobain's public relations officer, Courtney Smith, stated that engineers were able to make repairs and restore power to all the stations. However, electricians were not able to determine what caused the malfunction in the first place. Smith said that one possibility is water leakage damaging some of the system's power circuits. Engineers and electrical experts will continue to monitor the electrical system, but do not expect that there will be any further problem. On behalf of Cobain Transport, Smith apologized for any inconvenience caused by the closure.
