Significant News in Regards to Rev Sharing / Title IX

U.S. Dept of Education should be a prime target for DOGE.
they are
>President-elect Donald Trump has vowed to get rid of the Education Department — and his so-called Department of Government Efficiency will likely play a key role in any cuts to or restructuring of the federal agency.
Of the two DOGE leaders, Ramaswamy has made the most public remarks about education. He has asserted that education should be funded by state and local governments, “not the feds,” and returning that responsibility to the states is part of a “key solution to our federal deficit problem.”<

maybe some will consider this DOE propaganda or consider it insight
No matter what you might want to read this if you're not sure just what the DOE is supposed to do.

Overview​

Education is primarily a State and local responsibility in the United States. It is States and communities, as well as public and private organizations of all kinds, that establish schools and colleges, develop curricula, and determine requirements for enrollment and graduation. The structure of education finance in America reflects this predominant State and local role. Of an estimated $1.15 trillion being spent nationwide on education at all levels for school year 2012-2013, a substantial majority will come from State, local, and private sources. This is especially true at the elementary and secondary level, where about 92 percent of the funds will come from non-Federal sources.

OT: Moderate to Significant Snow (and some rain SE of 95) for Sunday, 1/19.

There's a difference and if you can't see it, perhaps you need to look more closely. It's the same tired old formula. I post a ton of what I think is useful information, backed up by links to models, maps, meteorological discussions and such and almost immediately bac and others come in and nitpick every detail calling me biased and saying or implying I have no idea what I'm doing, so yeah, I get a bit annoyed and give some heat back and then we're off, but none of that happens without him/them starting it.

Also, fwiw, I've been absolutely right in this thread, so far, with regard to where the models are taking us (including caveats of uncertainty and how we can't be truly sure what will happen yet) and predicting what the pros at the NWS and folks like Lee Goldberg would say in their forecasts. I've been able to do that a lot over the years (but nowhere near always), so i think I do know what I'm doing even if I make mistakes sometimes, like anyone can when it comes to weather.

I even complimented bac in this thread on his several comments regarding the models and the risks to a snowy solution and I regularly compliment him on his bracketology threads, which are great. But I don't know that he has ever said anything positive about a weather post of mine when there are more than a few opportunities to do so. Oddly, though, we're often 100% aligned on RU sports and almost never bicker on those topics. It's not that I'm fishing for compliments, as I get a ton of positive feedback here, on FB and other boards and from my email list, but it would be nice if there were less snarky comments which lead to threads being derailed; as an aside, this is the only place where such cat fights occur around my weather threads/posts. And we haven't even been visited yet by the real trolls, lol, but I've gotten much better at ignoring them, at least while a thread is very active, as all of this back and forth is a distraction.

Anyway, my apologies to folks for not always being able to ignore the digs and my part in the distractions.
lol the ego... you said....I HAVE BEEN ABSOLUTELY RIGHT IN THIS THREAD SO FAR WHERE THE MODELS ARE TAKING US BUT I WILL ALSO BE RIGHT IF IT DOESNT HAPPEN BECAUSE I SAID IT MIGHT NOT HAPPEN

do you realize how you come across

and its not my problem if you cannot grow a thicker skin about being called out over the use of the ICON model
