Balls and chains
That is more than a little sickening.— October 8, 2014 7:46 a.m.
Could ratepayers' day be coming soon?
I hope the city of San Bruno sticks to its guns. I hope we get some strong work in this area, and force all utilities in CA to abide by the law. I also hope that the schedule for fixing all old pipelines will take into consideration the human cost of not fixing the pipelines.— October 8, 2014 7:37 a.m.
Sweetwater board candidate stumps on civility
Yes, anniej, the report was that McCann "had a conflict in his schedule" despite the fact that the debate had been set up for quite some time. I know of no one who really believes the bit about the scheduling conflict. Cartmill keeps trying to carry on as if the past couple of years' worth of charges, depositions, pleas and court appearances just didn't happen. We can only hope that voters are aware, awake and ready to elect people who will serve the schools instead of serving themselves and their campaign donors.— October 6, 2014 3:03 p.m.
"$22 Mil is not DeAnza."
Kind of looks like Goldsmith is hoping for a nice living once he leaves his present position.— October 5, 2014 2:14 p.m.
Hardship south of I-8, cont'd
Is there any chance that a task force from the Sweetwater school district, the city of San Diego, the county and the engineering company can get together and figure something out? A shuttle system, perhaps, as a temporary measure?— October 4, 2014 8:32 a.m.
Manchester's Grand Del Mar approved by commission
Yes, there is a lesson to be learned here, but it isn't really a good lesson. I sure wish there would be a chapter 2 on this.— October 3, 2014 7:48 p.m.
For-profit college financier Clifford drops out
I guess he thought it would be much easier to grab all those government funds via the students and their loans and grants. I view this as a "victory"!! Contrast Michael Clifford with Elizabeth Warren on the subject of education. It is time for all of us to really watch out for all the students and help them make decisions that will work for them in the long term. Thanks for this, Don!— October 3, 2014 7:45 p.m.
Last Days in Vietnam
Saw this last night, and I am very glad to have done so. The people who were interviewed had truly amazing stories to tell. I'd like to see it again. A teacher with a class of kids were discussing it afterwards--there is a wealth of information, but the sheer weight of character in a few individuals trying their best in extremely difficult circumstances fills me with respect. So much can be learned (and accomplished) if we go about things trying to help. One Vietnamese officer said something like "Organizing a rescue effort was above my pay grade, but...".— October 1, 2014 2:27 p.m.
Sweetwater board candidate stumps on civility
Yes--apparently he didn't see the real need. Or, he was prevailed upon by those who really like campaign contributions. Disingenuous of Gov. Brown to say that top administrators shouldn't be singled out for different treatment. The reason they were singled out for different treatment is that they can be corrupted far to easily the way things are now run. If they are corrupt, the world is their oyster--and who is going to stop that comfortable arrangement? Not Gov. Brown. Does he still need campaign contributions?— September 30, 2014 10:07 p.m.
Sweetwater board candidate stumps on civility
Yes, and is there a way to determine if people are on site or not? Because, believe it or not, I have heard that, many times, people in the top administrative positions spend more time 'out and about', and claim that is a great part of their job--when really, it is just what they want to do.— September 30, 2014 3:19 p.m.
