Qualcomm engineers its financial product
swell, the players live in San Diego for half the year, so they do spend money in San Diego. And quite a few of them live in the San Diego area. And ALL of them pay state taxes on the game checks they get for game splayed in California.— March 9, 2015 10:36 p.m.
AEG pulls out of L.A. stadium negotiations
don bauder, moving ANY team to Los Angeles will not increase it's valuation by a billion dollars, or anywhere close to it. When figuring the value of a team, Forbes uses four categories: sport, market, stadium and brand.. In their valuation of the Giants and Jets, the valuation of market and stadium is split between the 2 teams. I can see the total valuation for moving to Los Angeles being $1 billion, maybe slightly more, but with that split between the two teams, not per team. BTW You mentioned the Spanos clan having to pony up some cash if they move the Chargers. Forbes gives them a collective value of $1.3 billion and the Chargers are valued at $995 million. So the question is how much of that remaining $305 million do you think is actually cash, or at the very least liquid? It seems like a great deal of their wealth would be tied to A.G. Spanos Companies. BTW2 There was a Missouri House hearing scheduled for today to analyze a new stadium’s costs and benefits.— March 9, 2015 10:30 p.m.
Could U-T's new owner steal Chargers for L.A.?
Well, wherever they end up, it won't be in downtown Los Angeles: http://www.latimes.com/sports/la-sp-nfl-stadium-a…— March 9, 2015 6:06 p.m.
Sort of like the results of a fad diet
Let me simplify my comment a bit. If you want to lose weight, eat less calories, make the calories you do eat the right ones by eating the right foods, and get some exercise. Knock off 250 calories, eat right and get 30 minutes of exercise, even if it's just a 30 minute walk at a brisk pace, and you can lose a pound a week.— March 7, 2015 2:23 p.m.

As I said in my comment, a less meat heavy diet with a more vegetables and fruit. I eat meat. And fowl and fish and lots of vegetables, fresh whenever possible, and fruit, and a moderate amount of dairy. As a kid, I had milk with breakfast and also with lunch at school, but rarely drink it now. At 58 years old, my Dr says I am in a good as health as any 40 yr old he sees and better than most. As I said above, I believe it's not as much how much you eat, but what you eat. I suppose it doesn't hurt that I normally run 15-20 miles per week, cycle when the weather is good and hit the gym at least twice a week.— March 6, 2015 4:36 p.m.

As usual, Dr Oz only relates part of the facts. Those on a "paleo" diet who put a higher emphasis on protein from meat may run a higher risk of cancer in individuals over the age of 50. It has also been found that eating a more balanced form of the diet, less meat heavy with a more even amount of vegetables have been associated with lower colorectal cancer rates. The Paleo diet seems to be healthful if less emphasis is placed on high levels of protein, especially coming from animal products, and more emphasis on non-processed vegetables, fruits, beans, and seeds. This seems be a reasonable conclusion to me since researchers of paleolithic peoples find diets composed of high levels of fresh fruits and vegetables in addition to meat-based protein. Other studies have also shown that a low glycemic index, low-glycemic load diet like the paleo may also decrease the risk of breast cancer:a couple of recent studies have shown that a high glycemic diet may increase the risk for developing breast cancer. The paleo diet is milk and dairy free. Drinking milk can elevate blood estrogen levels and increase the risk for breast and ovarian cancer in women and increase the risk for prostate and testicular cancer in men. I guess it depends on what you want to believe. Personally, I put Dr. Oz in the same boat as Dr Phil.— March 6, 2015 2:07 p.m.
Could U-T's new owner steal Chargers for L.A.?
Maybe it's just me, I would think that if one were buying a newspaper, then one would want to at least own the real estate on which the newspaper sits..— March 6, 2015 7:34 a.m.

One slight disagreement. Not necessarily how much you eat, but what you eat. example, give up that rich sauce on your pasta once in a while and try a little good EVOO instead. Many, many more examples com to mind, but you get the idea.— March 6, 2015 7:29 a.m.

Trust me. Los Angeles doesn't want them any more than San Diego does.— March 5, 2015 4:18 p.m.
