“Newspapers are saving money wherever they can, and they are doing it by cutting the comics.”
— Cartoonist Mark Tatulli who’s seen 30 newspapers drop his strip “Lio” in the last 18 months.

Irish fun for all
Green was the color of the day along the east side of Balboa Park as the Irish Congress of Southern California held their 30th annual St. Patrick’s Day parade (the largest west of the Mississippi). Three city councilmembers (Carl DeMaio, Todd Gloria and Sherri Lightner) took part in the celebration.
Ad deadline for 2010-2011 HillQuest edition is March 31st
The next edition of HillQuest,
an Urban Guide to Hillcrest & beyond, is underway and projected
to hit the streets (as usual) the end of June. For
as little as $350 (that’s less than a
dollar a day) businesses will receive a year’s worth of exposure
throughout Uptown as well as a free listing of your service, restaurant
or shop on Hillcrest’s most popular website, HillQuest.com.
As a bonus the colorful foldout maps show the Hillcrest Business Improvement District’s parking lots, community centers and self-guided neighborhood walks. All advertiser locations are also identified, listed and directed to the page in HQ8 where readers may find their ad. The flip side of the map shows hiking trails and museums in Balboa Park and businesses in the adjacent neighborhood of Bankers Hill.
