Biz Buzz: 2 stores closing on one SLO block
Biz Buzz: 2 stores closing on one SLO block Black Sea Gallery and Lil Grom spaces are for lease; the area on Marsh Street is proposed to be converted to a large retail-condo complex The retail locations for Black Sea Gallery and Lil Grom, two stores in downtown San Luis Obispo on Marsh Street between Broad and Garden streets, are for lease. "They just did not have the business success they hoped," said John Rossetti, owner of Rossetti Co. and one of four partners who own the properties. Black Sea Gallery manager Moe Sari believes his furniture business was affected by the slowdown in the housing industry. "Black Sea Gallery has closed four stores already in California and plans to close two more," Sari said. "It's getting to look like a recession to me, and it's not going to get better any time soon.
Hartlines purchase WCLE stations
Littlefield, founders of Faith Memorial Church, who had a profound effect on Hartline, according to attorney and radio talk show host, Jimmy Logan. "What Steve brings to the station comes from the service mentor he had in his grandfather, M. E. Littlefield. This station has carried on the Empty Stocking Fund and he converted it into the Christmas Party for children here in Bradley County. Steve is a servant and he walks the servant model." Hartline's experience and perspective in the medium of radio has made him a savvy businessman who realizes, he says, how important it is to appeal to his audience not only with great music but also with personalities that connect with their audience and a rapport that does not irritate. "Paul said, 'I have become all things to all people.' I feel that I have become that way about this station.
Dec 28th
Well, it's almost time for me to head off to Australia. Tomorrow, actually, but this might be my last chance to get in a blog before then. I will try to blog while there but won't promise. Christmas is over and it was quite a pleasant one. My son visited from Las Vegas and he said he had a good time. It looks like he is set on going back to college full time to qualify as an accountant. He did one class last semester and got an A, so it looks like he should do OK in that field. He has quite a bit of money coming to him for education from the time he spent in the United States Air Force; at least enough for about two years of college. We spent Christmas Eve morning at my wife's parents then headed to Pensacola Beach, Florida to where my wife's sister and family live. Lots of gifts were handed around and we all ate and drank too much.
Jeff Thelen's Blog
Hi everybody. I'm back from really slacking off from the blog over the holidays. This week, it's just a few random thoughts. How many people are sick at your home, office or school? Seems like everyone in this newsroom is fighting some sort of bug right now. My symptoms are a sore throat, tiredness and aches and pains. I have no congestion, but my nose only runs at night. Wierd, isn't it? Alison Struve blows her nose so much she sounds like a foghorn. Stephanie Luisier and chief photographer Randy Bise both have that "sick sound" when they talk. Was it just me or did the Badgers seem a little unfocused and unprepared for their bowl game? Perhaps it's the long layoff between their last regular season game and the contest on January 1. It was a sort of a fun game to watch, even if it was rather sloppily played.

Ponderings from PapaBear
I see that there are already many great blogs posted on last nights BCS Title Game and another recap is not needed. However, I have a few final thoughts on this game and the Buckeye season. First, congratulations to Les Miles and his LSU Tigers. They were the dominate team on both sides of the ball for the final three quarters of this game and are deserving Champions. For the past month I was slowly able to convince myself that the Buckeyes had a shot at a victory in this game. In order for them to pull off the upset they would of had to play the perfect game. Their overall team effort was certainly better than the one the they put forth in last years game against Flordia, but perfect they were not. Turnovers and really stupid penalties kept this game from being close and the final result was much the same as last year...A sizeable loss.
