Good morning. It’s Friday, March 8th On Thursday, Mayor Jim Kenney introduced his latest budget plan. The plan calls for no tax increases and more spending on education and police. But the budget announcement also served as a campaign speech in Kenney’s bid for a second term as mayor. He also laid out an ambitious vision for how Philly can improve in the next five years. Last month, a family in Fishtown saw their home reduced to rubble.

Good morning. It’s Thursday, March 7th. SEPTA’s [sep-ta’s] transit police went on strike Wednesday afternoon. The police are responsible for patrolling SEPTA’s stations and vehicles. And the union that represents 178 SEPTA police officers has been negotiating with the transit agency on a contract that expired a year ago. SEPTA plans to rely on 49 supervisors to work extended hours to cover patrols during the strike.

Good morning. It’s Wednesday, March 6th A Philly Starbucks is getting attention for a recent redesign that some say is aimed at keeping homeless people out. The tables and chairs at the Broad and Pine Streets location are gone. All that remains are two high-top tables and a handful of stools along the windows.

Good morning. It’s Tuesday, March 5th. So much for a snow day. Weekend forecasts called for six-to-eight inches of snow to fall in and around Philadelphia. And it was supposed to come fast. The National Weather Service predicted nearly an inch-per-hour. Overall, the storm dusted the city with just an inch of snow through Monday, though some spots north and west of the city had close to seven inches.

Good morning. It’s Monday, March 4th. Plans for a train line to King of Prussia (PRUSH-AH) are full steam ahead. But a major part of the project is still up in the air. Planners aren’t sure how to pay for it. The line’s expected to cost about 1.2 billion dollars. Even a federal grant will likely only cover half of that. Paying for the rest may be complicated. State officials say their ability to contribute will be limited.

The wait is over, Phillies fans. The team has agreed to a record-setting 330-million-dollar deal with baseball star Bryce Harper. The move will bring Harper to Philly for 13 years and reportedly does not include a clause to allow him to opt out early. The 26-year old outfielder spent seven seasons with the Nationals. And hit 184 home runs during that span. Harper is a six-time All-Star and was named National League MVP in 2015.

Good morning. It’s Thursday, February 28th. Nearly 70 students will leave The Glen Mills Schools.

Good morning. It’s Wednesday, February 27th A mother and daughter have been accused of killing five family members in Morrisville, Pennsylvania.

Good morning. It’s Tuesday, February 26th. High winds up to 60 miles-per-hour ripped through the Philadelphia area yesterday. The wind knocked out power for tens of thousands of people, forced some schools to close early and meant delays or cancellations of more than 100 flights out of Philadelphia airport. The reason for the severe wind: the region was sandwiched between areas of low pressure air in eastern Canada and high pressure air in the Northern Plains.

Good morning. It's Monday, February 25th. The Pennsylvania Higher Education Assistance Agency or PHEAA (fee-ah), which includes FedLoan, services about 7-and-a-half million federal student borrowers.

Now, its profits have plummeted by 90 percent over the last four years.
