How in the world did you capture that image off of a TV screen?

Expansion Management magazine lists Greenville/Spartanburg No. 6 in the nation for business recruitment and attraction among large metro areas. Columbia and Charleston farther down on the list of "mid size" markets. http://www.expansionmanagement.com/smo/new...=18800&st=3 http://www.expansionmanagement.com/SMO/DOC...GE%20METROS.PDF http://www.expansionmanagement.com/SMO/DOC...UM%20METROS.PDF

County, developer getting closer on big County Square deal. Hotel developer looking at Magnolia Park. http://www.greenvilleonline.com/apps/pbcs....EWS01/611290411 http://www.greenvilleonline.com/apps/pbcs....4/1003/BUSINESS

The Caterpillar deal was all spelled out in an article in the Greenville News Oct. 31. If find it very interesting that Greenville was recently ranked #1 for engineers per capita. Mind sharing where that comes from?

How come Clemson got some of this new funding, but USC didn't. I thought USC was supposed to be the fuel cell speicalists. http://www.doe.gov/news/4401.htm

New restaurant coming to RiverPlace. http://www.greenvilleonline.com/apps/pbcs..../609120379/1003

Sorry. Let me try again. http://yourupstate.com/apps/pbcs.dll/artic...5/YOURUPSTATE10

I haven't kept up with the conversation here, so forgive me if this is old news. But I found this Gville News article very interesting, especially paragraph five. http://www.greenvilleonline.com/apps/pbcs....EWS01/309100003

The Upstate will get four Value Place hotels. http://www.greenvilleonline.com/apps/pbcs..../606140408/1003

Just goes to show, not everything you hear -- and not everything that's posted on Urban Planet -- pans out.

Yes, that was reported in the Greenville News and Channel 4 several days ago.

Alright, how bout if we all try to figure out what Cafealotofguy is talking about. 1) A GSP project. That must mean it's in Greenville/Spartanburg. Wouldn't refer to the airport would it? 2) Two trial lawyer utopias. I'm stumped. 3) A combonation of pork greenbacks and deity centered bread. Government funding and angel investors? 4) Economicly contrast? Got me there. 5) Upstate remembrance center. Museum?

I agree that one of the values a publication like the Journal can bring -- and often does -- is to take something that's been reported by daily media such as the Greenville News or Channel 4 and to develop it further, put it in context, do a more thorough analysis.

I try to read both publications on a regular basis, although sometimes I miss. As I recall, the GNews had the first story that told us who Pogo was and the scope of the project. Whether the Journal had a small item mentioning a Project Pogo before that or not, I don't recall. You mention the latest edition of the Journal and the story on the bell ornament at RiverPlace. No, I did not see this in the GNews, so give the Journal credit for that. However, what I did see in today's GNews was a big story on the City Hall project that named the developers involved and gave lots of detail. The Journal had a story, too, but all it said was they didn't have any new information. I also saw in the latest Journal a story about Orders Distributing being sold, which I had learned days ago from the GNews. Also, the Journal routinely turns what have been big news stories during the week into little news briefs, if they've been in the GNews already, which they usually have. I saw a story in the GNews about Carl Flesher of BMW taking a job with the Commerce Department. Didn't see hide nor hare of that in the Journal. I remember a story in the GNews about local gas stations getting busted for price gouging. Don't remember that in the Journal. I could go on and on. No one likes their local daily newspaper, but the truth is, the local daily is always the community's news engine, whether the community likes its ownership or not. There's a lot to be said for the Journal, and they are to be commended for giving Greenville an additional source of news. But it strikes me that a lot of times in these forums, the Journal is always praised and the News always derided. That, when most of the news that's discussed in these forums comes from the News! I'm just trying to be honest. Facts is facts.

I don't remember the weekly beating the daily to the story. Can you cite specific examples?

Here's something to talk about. http://www.greenvilleonline.com/apps/pbcs....INESS/604190405

In case anyone missed it, New York Life has agreed to take space in the Fieldhouse. Nice pix of sign going up in the Greenville News. http://www.greenvilleonline.com/apps/pbcs....=73240957391806

Greenville News is reporting that K&G Fashion Superstore is coming to Laurens Road. http://www.greenvillenews.com/apps/pbcs.dl...S/60402002/1003

Hello all. At least two new Hilton-branded hotels going to The Point? Did I miss something?
