Economy for 2013: San Diego worse than state, nation?
OK, here is an interesting stat from 1999 stating GDP was $300 billion in 1900, and the reference to Greenspan is particularly hilarious looking back. I have no idea if the stat is accurate. **"In 1900, GDP was just under $300 billion. Today, as we enter the new millennium, it is over $9 trillion. As of February, we will be in the middle of the longest expansion in our history, in war or peace time. And I want to thank Chairman Greenspan for all he has done to help give America this steady, upward growth."** http://www.bea.gov/scb/account_articles/general/0…— January 4, 2013 4:35 p.m.
Peregrine accountant defrocked
#Arthur Andersen is just a distant memory for many of us. YOU KNOW, IT WAS SO LONG AGO i ACTUALLY FORGOT WHEN IT HAPPENED. They surrendered their licenses in 2002, 11 years ago.— January 4, 2013 4:25 p.m.
Peregrine accountant defrocked
#Does that mean he cannot practice as a CPA in other states? No, it does not. Each state has their own system. But the rule in most states is that you must notify them of any criminal charges/convictions, or if you have been disciplined in any other state. And the usual rule (at least in CA) is that you cannot practice in said state until your suspension is lifted in the state you were disciplined in.— January 4, 2013 4:22 p.m.
Economy for 2013: San Diego worse than state, nation?
Excellent point on the GDP/Net worth ratio. I did not even think of taking into account the size of the GDP 100+ years ago and today. I wonder if the net worth of either JDR or Carnegie exceeded the GDP (GNP back then) in that period??— January 4, 2013 12:23 p.m.
Mayor Bob Filner to address SDG&E issues
#Oh, the SDGE board voted to sell out, but that was based on some specious legal advice the members received. What happened, as I recall fro 25 years ago, was the SDG&E board did NOT want to sell, UNTIL they all received "golden parachutes" worth millions, and at that point their tune changed-to sell!— January 4, 2013 12:18 p.m.
Escondido man accused of gang crimes
You DO need the court's permission, but a court room is a public place and it is routine to take public pics in it, with the court's permission. I have never heard of the presiding judge giving it, or denying it, only the judge whose court room you're in, but don't know the routine for sure.— January 4, 2013 12:16 p.m.
The conformity curse
#Want to be successful? Then you should emulate successful people.Take Steve Jobs of Apple. Starting Apple Computer in his garage, he and his business partner built it into a unique leader in its industry. Luck, timing, dedicated employees and a new technology that changed the face of the earth had nothing to do with Jobs success. And don't forget Apple was 90 days away from BK in the early 1990's.— January 4, 2013 4:09 a.m.

Hit-and-run driver in Rancho Santa Fe is reported by a neighbor
#Well-placed sources have said that criminals often prefer to do their time in local custody in San Diego County, rather than State Prison. No one wants county time for 12-60 months, they want a state pen where there are tons more programs and activities. County sucks eggs.— January 3, 2013 9:46 p.m.
