MANTECA – Suzette Frese sums it up in one sentence as to why her favorite restaurant in Manteca is a dining destination.
MODESTO – It's hard to mess up a hamburger.
STOCKTON – So what makes for a good hamburger?
LODI - Want a real root beer float?
It's an old barn like any other in the Manteca and surrounding areas, or even in the San Joaquin Valley.
MODESTO – There's the mall.
The Troll doll was one of many toys that came out during the height of the Cold War.
STOCKTON – Port City's native son has returned with a … filet?
There's a veritable smorgasbord of places to ring in the New Year in and around Manteca.
New Years Eve celebrations throughout the Sierra Nevada range are on tap from Lake Tahoe to as far south as Mammoth Lakes just off Highway 395.
What better way to kick-off 2015 but with a brisk run or walk?
As the clock strikes midnight, Turlock proves year after year to be comparable to big city venues as one of the best places to ring in the New Year in the Central Valley.
Christmas when Nellie Richetta was growing up was not exactly the kind that the Ingalls had in "Little House on a Prairie." Some elements of it were there though.
Yes, Eduardo – there is a Santa.
Every year for Christmas Arnita Montiel got the exact same gift.
With Valentine's Day approaching, there's one thing the flower buyer shouldn't forget.
MODESTO - It doesn't matter if you think that Valentine's Day was created to sell greeting cards (it was).
Manteca is known as the Family City, and Ripon the Almond Capital of California. They are also communities that have plenty to offer for the romantic at heart.

Intense aromas of ripe fruit, sandalwood and perfume. Full-bodied, with lovely ripe fruit flavors and velvety tannins. Long, sweet fruit finish. Soft, layered and gorgeous. Exciting in a reserved way. Best after 2008.

The 2000 Barolo Granbussia is the freshest of these 2000 Baroli from Aldo Conterno. Pretty floral notes meld into a generous core of fruit in this open, generous Granbussia. The 2000 should continue to drink well for another decade or so. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2020.

Anna was excellent! Great information, wonderful humor and tremendous energy! Take this trip!
Had a great time! The ride was beautiful and we had snow in Mont Louis! The guide had a lot of knowledge about the area and made it truly a wonderful experience! We wish we had a little more time to explore Andorra!
I loved this tour! Andorra is incredible. Our guide was Fillipo was the best! I had so much fun!
Couldn't be happier! Also our tour guide (Nico) was awesome! Super knowledgeable, professional and friendly; he made the group feel like a group of friends rather than a tour - including bus ride sing alongs!
Great tour! Our guide was from Barcelona and had a lot of interesting history and perspective on the Catalan region. Really cool to go through the Pyrenees. What a beautiful area! Learned a lot!
What a great trip. Our guide Anna was both fun and informative. It was a long day but the bus was very comfortable and we stopped at several sites. The mountains were a thril to see. I strongly recommend this tour. It was a highlight of our visit to Barcelona
Absolutely fantastic trip !! Our tour guide and driver was great. The group was also excellent. Highly recommend.
Early morning trip from Barcelona but so worth it. Beautiful scenery - sends you back in time.
Great fun and the guide was really friendly and knowledgable. Only four of us on tour so we got to spend quality time in the three places. A must if you want to say you have been to three countries in one day
I enjoyed the landscape of this Catalan region!
Excellent guide (Nicko?) And lovely drive. Interesting commentary. Well worth it!
Great trip and great guide, Nicholas!
Really a fantastic opportunity!
Good tour guide/driver and nice views make our trip never forgetable!
A wonderful experience !! We just love it !!

Davey Johnson remains focused on choosing the final player for his bench, which he said, "probably won't be settled until the last day." Outfielders Brett Carroll and Jason Michaels seem to have emerged as favorites, with Chad Tracy also hanging in the competition and Mark Teahen and Andres Blanco still in major league camp.
"I will be looking at every aspect of that," Johnson said. "From the player standpoint and how it fits, offense, defense, you name it, I'll look at it. I think that's as important as position, the guys who fit with your position players. I've already polled my coaches two or three times. Very few agreed with anybody else."
One player not in the mix, Johnson said, is first baseman Tyler Moore. He has had an impressive camp in his first major league spring training, but Johnson said unequivocally he is not considering Moore, 25, for a spot. The past two seasons, in Class A and Class AA, Moore has hit 62 home runs.
"He needs to go out and play," Johnson said. "He's one of our top prospects. He's had a great spring."
Johnson is also still considering how to line up his rotation. He had a conversation with pitching coach Steve McCatty today to discuss some ideas. The easy answer for opening day would be Stephen Strasburg, but Gio Gonzalez, an all-star last season, has impressed the Nationals so much that they are considering him for the nod.

In the heart of Manila still stands an old, curious-looking structure called the Manila Metropolitan Theater, or simply known to Manileños as MET. Abandoned for nearly two decades, most people have dismissed it as just another rotting relic from the past.

An evil man who hijacked a cause with some merit.
Will be checking into Hell right now with Pol Pot, Hitler, Idi Amin to keep him company. And probably more than a few Sinhala chavinist politicians as well.
Should all have plenty to talk about for the next eternity or so.
"Peter.Ratna wrote: May 21, 2009 19:30

As was Hitler, Stalin, Pol Pot.
Empires of hate built on blood of the gullible.
Article mentions 'Sinhalese Army', and several other thins that suggest ethnic divisions that are far from reality, but heavily promoted by a certain section of media.
The success of Government is due in large part to the discreet support from many Tamil armed groups, all of whom actually wanted kill LTTE leader more than many in the government.
thanks god that mass murderer is dead .
the economist articles on sri lanka in mag or website during past 2-3 years got the whole thing wrong, when it tried to portray the violence in sri lanka as an ethnic conflict when it wasn't .
the economist so called 'correspondents" were clearly sloppy, unprofessional, and overly dependent on certain english speaking class (self styled descendants of collaborators of british empire in colombo) who are removed from reality and hate the current government, and probably present day sri lanka, due to the fact that they have lost all influence and power now.
as such the economist's analysis was way off and its predictions failed completely. readers can check the truth of this by reading the articles themselves.
ppl who pointed all this out in here ( like me ) were abused and censored .
the economist will be wrong again about sri lanka, if it remain the same and has the same prejudices .
A hero to many.
Prabhakaran, should have escaped Sri Lanka
to keep the LTTE movement alive,but in the end
he chose to die fighting,and probably died by swallowing
a cynide pill just like his countless Tigers had
done so in the past without any hesitation!
Prabhakaran, like most leaders failed to see the changing times. People in South Asia, must realise that they have to drive their leaders, rather than being driven by them.
South Asia is semi-democratic and there is long way to go before people are empowered
P.S. semi-democratic as there is no internal democracy in any political party in South Asia.
Prabhakaran elevated the plight of the Tamil people on a worldwide scale but also caused a huge disservice by pursuing an extremist strategy that continuously blurred the boundary between what was a legitimate grievance and what was not. I hope the Tamil community will now rally behind a new leader who can help frame the argument for equal rights within a political framework rather than a military one as once Chelvanayakam and Ponnambalam did many years ago.
This is a very interesting and unbiased narrative unlike the writings full of hatred that appear in the press, regarding this subject. However there should be one correction. Sri Lankan army comprises Sinhalese, Tamils and Muslims (though majority are Sinhalese) and incorrect to be called Sinhalese army.

THE AGE OF CHIVALRY is a collection of many of the common myths and legends of western Europe, and forms one of the books of Thomas Bulfinch's exhaustive MYTHOLOGY collection. Thomas Bulfinch (1796-1867) was an American writer and banker best known his works THE AGE OF FABLE, THE AGE OF CHIVALRY, and LEGENDS OF CHARLEMAGNE. The three works were first published in one volume in 1881.
Aeschylus based his epic drama on the legendary tale of Prometheus, the Titan who stole fire from the gods for the benefit of humanity. Prometheus's terrible punishment remains a universal symbol of human vulnerability in any struggle with the gods, and this ancient play continues to entrance audiences with its timeless appeal.
Bulfinch's Mythology: Age of Fable, Age of Chivalry, and Legends of CharlemagneThe introduction begins: "The literature of our time, as of all the centuries of Christendom, is full of allusions to the gods and goddesses of the Greeks and Romans.

hey sport
working in one of my hosta beds i found a hosta with a drop dead gorgeous sport. now i see why someone can get excited over one of these, it's beautiful. now what to do with it...do i just leave it and see if it's still there next year? or do i dig the whole plant and separate the sport out and plant it by itself? (i could baby it along..)
been too hot to work the gardens but the weeds still grew.
i'm off to order a couple of minis. andi
Andi, you have us waiting on the edge of our seats, wanting to see your sport. It's always exciting when you see a brand new hosta.
If you do not have an album at Flickr or Photobucket, you can upload ONE direct to Gardenweb when you post again.
oh crud you guys, now i'm embarrased. beauty is in the eye of the beholder you know. do have photobucket and if i get up enough nerve will take pics. also have a 'zounds' with many multiple varied seedlings under it.
'ain't it all just too much fun'
Is it a sport or a reversion?
Yeah, there's been a recent post here, well written, regarding the question of 'reversion'.
Nevertheless, it's the first thing I look at when noticing a 'sport'.
The infamous JOTN reverting for just about everyone is well documented here, as is, I believe, 'Green Revolution', my name, teehee.
I divided a neat looking sport from a 'Captain Kirk' a few years ago, but it is so similar to at least two other already recognized Hosta cultivars that I don't think it's significant or worthy of naming and registering, though I'd so much like to do so . . .
That's a very hard decision to come to, since most all of us want to introduce a new Hosta, but in reality, unless you're a big-a** TC plant, the odds of finding something really new and worthwhile is so slim, DARN!
ok, here is my 'sport', pretty ya think? now the bad part..mom is a noid (the green with white edge) but all hostas in this bed have been new hostas so maybe i buried the name by it. so we're just another pretty face in the garden, lol. should i dig it up and separate?
btw, i read up on sport vs reversion and couldn't make sense of it. leavin it for the big guys. andi
Oh my, another green and white margined one!!! Good luck figuring out who's this one's mama!
I really like that leaf in the first picture. Very nice.
Just making a comment, not offering any help sad to say.
Thanks for bringing the pictures to us.
That is truly neat! I know a year has just about passed, but I came across a sport recently too. I left mine in the ground to mature, and then dug it out when it developed 5 eyes. I just divided it and I hope she lives! Please post an update. That is gorgeous!
Shiba is giving good advice on this one. IF it re-appears the same next year (often sports don't), then carefully separate it from the mother plant and watch it for another year or so to see if it keeps all that wonderful variegation. Unstable is the word here.

Bauer pitches Indians past Astros
CLEVELAND (AP) — The Indians can thank their starting pitching for keeping them in playoff contention.
Trevor Bauer continued that trend Sunday by taking a shutout into the seventh and Cleveland hung on for a 3-1 win over the Houston Astros.
The Indians (66-63) have used strong work by their rotation to stay in the postseason picture. Cleveland's starters have recorded a 1.71 ERA in 13 games since Aug. 9.
Manager Terry Francona knows securing a playoff spot won't be easy. The Indians trail Kansas City by six games in the AL Central and are battling several teams in the crowded wild card race.
"We have our work cut out for us, but if we pitch like that we're going to give ourselves a chance," he said.
The Indians have won four of their last five series, including three straight.
"We haven't been scoring a ton of runs," he said. "The hope is the pitching stays strong and we start scoring runs, spreading a few games out."
The starters have allowed 15 earned runs in 79 innings in their dominant stretch. Bauer (5-7), winning for the first time since July 18, held Houston to four hits and struck out nine. The right-hander was pulled after issuing a leadoff walk in the seventh.
"Every day you run a new guy out there and you have this feeling you're going to have a really good start," Bauer said. "It's nice for the team to have that confidence. It's been unbelievable."
Cody Allen, the Indians' fourth pitcher, worked out of ninth-inning trouble for his 17th save. He walked pinch-hitter Chris Carter to start the inning and gave up a one-out single to Jake Marisnick. Jose Altuve, the AL's leading hitter, singled to load the bases with two outs, but Allen struck out Dexter Fowler to end his 29-pitch outing.
Carlos Santana's sacrifice fly in the third put Cleveland ahead while Lonnie Chisenhall had an RBI single in the fourth. Jose Ramirez added an RBI single in the seventh.
Rookie right fielder Tyler Holt helped Bauer with two outstanding defensive plays. Holt robbed Marc Krauss of a hit with a diving catch to end the first inning with a runner on first. Holt again took a hit away from Krauss with another diving catch for the first out of the sixth, also with a man on first.
Bauer was 0-3 in his last six starts coming into the game in a season that has been marked by cases of wild inconsistency. He allowed five first-inning runs in two of his last three starts, but didn't give up a hit until the sixth in the other.
"He'll go through spurts where he throws three or four balls in a row, but you look up and he's throwing a lot of strikes," Francona said. "He has periods where he kind of loses what he's doing, but he really competes. He gets mad at himself when he doesn't do what he wants."
