Steve Jobs Died
The turn around of Apple was the most amazing come-back in the history of American Business. I thought for SURE Scully was goign to BK them in 1993. Apple was the fastest company in American history to go from start-up to Fortune 500, 3 years, then they almost went BK, then Jobs came back in 1996, then the Imac, the Ipod, the Iphone.........to the most valuable company in the Fortuen 500 (since lost to Exxon/mobil). The BEST line I have ever heard-and I will remember this until the day I die, was when Jobs was recruiting Pepsi executive John Scully to become Apple's CEO, and Scully had cold feet, then Jobs said; "Do you want to sell sugar water for the rest of your life or change the world?" Jobs chnaged the world more than any other person in the last 100 years.— October 5, 2011 8:01 p.m.

Occupy Wall Street Protests Come to San Diego
By the way, 1% of the people rules things in places like Cuba and China and Vietnam. Except in those places, there REALLY is no middle class. And they shoot protestors like you. == We are NO different than the places you named, we have become a banana republic. This was a good interview I saw recently; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6yrT-0Xbrn4&featur…— October 4, 2011 11:26 a.m.
Small World: An Interesting Deal between Casey Wasserman and Tom Gores
Qualcomm got quite a bargain back in 1997 when the city council agreed to remove the name of the late and revered Union-Tribune sports writer Jack Murphy from the Mission Valley venue, replacing it with the cell phone giant's monicker and logo for 20 years. The council also agreed rename a nearby street for the company, all in exchange for a mere $18 million. == Actually it is a very good bargain TODAY-but it was an AWFUL deal for Qualcomm in 1997. In 1997 the average naming rights deal was about $1 million per year, paid on an annual basis. Qualcomm paid EVERYTHING UPFRONT, which increased Qualcomm's costs well above the average in 1997. They did it as a favor to the City to close the gap to make the upgrade & imrovements at the Murph, which were originally around $68 million, but $20 million was added due to litigation-as I recall from memory but could be wrong. Since 1997 naming rights deals have gone through the roof, and everyone who signed long term deals on or before 1997 are makig out like bandits.— October 4, 2011 11:22 a.m.

U.S. May Crack Down; Bridgepoint Stock Plunges
The gist if his comments was that those schools are helping veterans to get an education they would otherwise be denied. So, the logic goes, to curb the for-profits is to reduce veterans benefits == for every one they claim to help there are 100 they hurt. That is all you need to know.— October 2, 2011 11 p.m.

I feel stoopid to admit this-I had no idea jeff's name was related to where he lived. I have never heard of Nokomis FL before. It looks like a nice area, not too far from where a friend of mine lives in Brandenton, FL.— October 1, 2011 6 p.m.

" snarky" is a very weird word, for some reason everytime I see it in print or hear it, I instantly think of Hanna barbera kids show from the late 1960's named "The Banana Splits", where they had 4 animals (played by humans) and one of them was named Snorky. I know, weird stuff from my surpressed childhood; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FtD4mn9CeH4— October 1, 2011 3:31 p.m.

San Diego Tenth Most Expensive City
I think monoghan was agreeing with you B-and commenting that the "America's Finest City" slogan was completely bogus. I think San Diego has been very mismanaged, but it is a beautiful city.— October 1, 2011 3:23 p.m.
