Sen. Harkin Cites Bridgepoint's Shocking Dropout Rate
Anhyone that buys stock in this fraud outfit needs their head examined. It is going to go BK, only question is how soon.— December 30, 2010 12:25 p.m.
Home Values in San Diego, Other Metro Areas Decline
I always hear a lot of criticism of those "effete" and spoiled Europeans, but I'll definitely give them this: they haven't been taking this crap lying down like vast majority of Americans. ======================== We have not seent his yet but we will, unfortunately it will be a revolt by public employees when they will be forced to take pay and pension haircuts I'm afraid-instaed of from the working poor and what is left of the middle class.— December 30, 2010 9:34 a.m.
Is Chula Vista Budgetary Rainstorm That Bad?
The educational requirement for cop is a GED, nothing more. That is the standard established by P.O.S.T. 80% of ALL cops in metro areas hold just a GED or HS diploma at hire, yet they all CLAIM they are Phd's and lawyers and doctors. While some (15%-20%) are hired with a Bacholrs degree, it is a very small minority. Some may get a degree LATER, after they were hired, many times using taxpayer $$$ to pay for it, but that is not a requriement of the job and they were not hired with the degree. CVPD is on the 3%@50 retirement scam, don't know what YOU retired under, but no one anywhere in the real world gets anything even close to that. You don't EVEN PAY YOUR OWN PORTION! CVPD never went w/o pay raises, but EVEN if you did, when you get 5%-10% ANNUAL pay raises (500% above the COLA) then it is the same as getting a double raise for every year you went without one. SO in fact you have never, ever went without a COLA. The 3%@50 pensions were GIFTED out retroactively, you paid NOTHING for it. A 50% increase worth millions of dollars that you did not pay one dime for. Do the math. I will even help you out here; . http://www.pensionjackpot.com/ . Your sense of entitlement tells us everything we need to know about you. I have a suggestion for you and your co-conspirators, if any of you are unhappy with your compensation then to take that big, bad, awesome GED or HS diploma out into the real world and make more with it. Simple solution. Until that time keep your SPIN to yourself, and fat, little, greedy fingers out of everyone's pocket. Earn your own way instead of stealing from the poor and middle class.— December 30, 2010 9:31 a.m.
Sen. Harkin Cites Bridgepoint's Shocking Dropout Rate

Grantville Redevelopment Money Transfer Ruled Permissible
Frega went to work for Bill Lerach after Frega was disbarred, as a "law clerk", and we know what happened to Lerach. Funny how these incestuous relationships all seem to tie in together.....I wonder who Learch will get to "law clerk" for????— December 29, 2010 10:14 p.m.
Home Values in San Diego, Other Metro Areas Decline
The worst part of this mess were are in is the long lasting length of it. This downturn started in September 2008, it is now January 2011-27 months!!!!.... and we are still 1-2 years away, MINIMUM, from even a modest recovery .— December 29, 2010 10:12 p.m.
This Ride Is Being Recorded
If the camera is in OPEN view and there is no dispute about that then I think it is not only OK-but needed today. It can record and memorialize any bad or illegal actions of others. Especially police.— December 29, 2010 10:07 p.m.
Four Wheelin' in Palm Springs
I have seen that place everytime I go into Palm Springs, which was fairly often a few years ago-thanks to your recommendation I am going to try the fun out for 30 minutes-maybe even an hour! Thanks for the write up.— December 29, 2010 10:04 p.m.
