Anna, very well put, but the Oroville City Council and the Fire Department with their non-existant decision makers don't have the stones to make the right decision in banning fireworks this year. Yes it would be unpopular and some groups would lose some money, but shouldn't safety come first?

I agree completely!!! I can't believe that fireworks are even being sold at all this year! It's such a silly waste of money and fire danger. I know my family will not be participating at all in fireworks.

The Plague - Just FYI, the Oroville Fire Department does not have a Fire Marshall. In fact, they are short two Chief positions as is. The "interim" Chief is not a decision maker whatsoever.

Daily Horoscope for January 4

Taurus

If your goals are fairly modest in the short term, they are achievable and you're likely to get some praise for achievements along the way. If you aim too high too quickly, others might not take you seriously or think you're being uppity and you could come unstuck. It's all a question of attitude and approach. There are contradictory influences over the next ten days but there could also be good luck coming your way.
