Thousands to Faulconer: sanctuary city now
What? Your comments are all over the place. What is your point?— February 20, 2017 midnight
Take cover from the storm and see these movies this weekend
I wish the movie reviewer would do a story on how movie theaters accommodate the hearing impaired. My experience has been miserable. Because most movie theaters do not maintain their hearing impaired headphone equipment - headphones, transmitters, audio amplifiers. We are a second thought. An asterisk in the printed ad. I have sever hearing loss. Deaf in one ear and a major loss in the other. Blame some of it on loud audio in my car, rock and roll, and swimming ear infections. The result is I cannot enjoy a movie without the headphones. I have spent hours trying t resolve technical problems with theater employees while, I as an electronics engineer bemused by their troubleshooting, become mentally exhausted. I give up, ask for a refund and leave. Retail..is that what we can call it... Theaters are doomed if they do not adapt to accommodate all customers. With the audio technology I witness today, we are going to have a generation of 'hard of hearing' people. I cannot even imagine the decibels that kids are inflicting on themselves these days. So theaters have to realize they are losing customers who would visit the big screens if they felt they were welcomed. I'd say I have probably passed up going to a movie theater, instead waiting and watching the move on cable, for 20 years.— February 19, 2017 11:58 p.m.
Dalai Lama causes a stir at UCSD
UCSD is supposed to be a public California university, but if you walked around the campus today you might feel you're in the Tiananmen Square. Tuition keeps going up... why do we permit a public university to have so many foreign students? We (Americans) complain about; 1) Not having enough engineers to 'compete' and 2) Tuition is too high. Well if we would make our public universities for our citizens, and not those of the children of foreign millionaires, we would solve both problems. Let them send their kids to private universities and get the money-drunk public universities out of the international education business. Maybe the only exception being international students studying for a doctorate. The infiltration of our public higher education campuses by foreign nationals is a major cause of America's decline in competitiveness as well as exacerbating the student loan bubble.— February 19, 2017 9:05 p.m.
La Jollans not soothed by airport authority
Well, someone in La Jolla is very pissed off because they, and they alone, submitted 1,086 complaints. La Jolla really should be careful what they wish for because the most logical relocation of the airport would be at Miramar Marine Base. If that happens, La Jolla will be the 'new' Point Loma as they experience the engine noise from the climb over Mt. Soledad. Just as Poway and Scripps Ranch would enjoy the new arrival noise to a new airport.— February 19, 2017 8:59 p.m.
Thousands to Faulconer: sanctuary city now
"Muslims have been here since the beginning of this nation." They were not terrorizing people as much as today. And it doesn't secure their opportunity to continue to migrate here.— February 19, 2017 10:31 a.m.
Coffee's king rankles in Ocean Beach
The sign in the photo says "Public restrooms are available at: OB Kabob | Pizza Port" I would assume they were steering people to those businesses facilities. The only public restrooms (that I know of) in OB are restrooms on the pier and behind the lifeguard station.— February 18, 2017 5:45 p.m.
Coffee's king rankles in Ocean Beach
It could be a lawsuit against the coffee giant. In the absence of an agreement, directing people to a nearby business specifically to use their restroom facilities is harassment.— February 18, 2017 4:46 p.m.
San Diego mortgage bite remains mighty
In all candor, a lot of the people I grew up with that went on to buy homes in San Diego County were helped with a generous down payment supplied by their parents. These of course were the same kids whose parents paid their college tuition.— February 18, 2017 11:34 a.m.
Sempra gasses Gaspar
A very unqualified person who was bought by the Republicans and shoehorned into office. Gaspar has a lot of paying back to do. She was the perfect candidate for the developers. I bet that Encinitas was more than happy to get rid of her.— February 18, 2017 11:28 a.m.
North Park Jack in the Box rebuild permit has yet to pop up
