The drinking problem in Balboa Park after dark
Hard work is good in and of itself, as an end in itself, even if the work is performed without compensation. The genesis of homelessness is unchecked sloth and laziness. If this condition is left untreated over time, those who are prone to it ultimately wind up on the streets. Forced labor performed within the framework of a government labor camp will cure the homeless of their sloth and laziness, and enable them to once again become functioning members of society. It's much cheaper to house a homeless person in a tent at an outdoor labor camp than it is to pay him/her a monthly welfare stipend which is spent on drugs and alcohol. A society that allows homeless individuals to roam the streets unchecked has no conscience.— August 15, 2009 4:41 p.m.
The drinking problem in Balboa Park after dark
Authoritarian measures are required to deal with the homeless. They should be arrested and placed in government labor camps and forced to perform manual labor. Eight hours a day of back breaking labor excavating freeway grades and sewer ditches with picks and shovels would soon cure them of their craving for alcohol and drugs. Fresh air and hard labor is what the homeless need.— August 14, 2009 10:39 p.m.
Union-Tribune Axe Falls Again. Kittle Reportedly Out
It looks like Kittle's wife, Luanne, runs The Rhoades School. It isn't clear whether the school operates as a profit making business, or as a nonprofit. Kittle may actually own the Rhoades School. http://www.rhoadesschool.com/180110922133249677/s…— August 14, 2009 6:43 p.m.
Union-Tribune Axe Falls Again. Kittle Reportedly Out
I heard that Girard, the towel attendant in the U-T Executive Washroom, was let go after 34 years of loyal service. Kittle will likely wind up VP in Sempra's PR department. He will have little trouble finding a good paying job. The laid-off reporters will likely never work as journalists again, and will have to reinvent themselves in order to find work. It looks like Gerry Braun got out in time and hitched himself to Sander's political career and may become his Otto Bos. Sander's political career could last another ten years, maybe more, taking Braun well into his retirement years.— August 13, 2009 11:18 p.m.
Union-Tribune Axe Falls Again. Kittle Reportedly Out
According to internal sources, here are some who were severed today: Bob Kittle, editorial page editor, ======= The editorial page should be abolished. Newspapers have no business telling the public who they should vote for, or how public monies should be spent.— August 12, 2009 7:23 p.m.
Mother of Quarterback Brees Dies after Getting Subpoenaed
I think we can all agree that Leaf is a deeply troubled man who needs help. As reported in the media, he is facing felony burglary and drug charges, and lost his college coaching job. http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=42675…— August 11, 2009 8:22 p.m.
Platinum Bidding for Globe, May Want Business Week
Most of the articles in Business Week appear to have been written by public relations firms hired by subjects of the articles. Business Week's favorable coverage of Jack Welch as he ran GE into the ground was truly disgusting. If Business Week is to survive it must stop publishing fluff pieces and start reaming corporations that hire corrupt business executives.— August 8, 2009 8:53 a.m.
GateHouse Sues Copley for Breach of Contract
When you're given unattributed material you think may have been copied from an unknown source online, ========== The lawsuit filing could have been sent to Bauder by someone who has a Pacer Account. I don't think we should assume the filing came from the Peoria Pundit's site.— August 1, 2009 11:51 p.m.
GateHouse Sues Copley for Breach of Contract
Peoria Pundit does put out a good product, and he should be commended for being the first to publish this story.— August 1, 2009 9:06 p.m.
