Posted by: Kim_Hamilton on 09/13/2010 05:04 PM
Copperopilis, CA....Kenny and Patty Mosley of Copperopolis knew they had something good on their hands when a few years ago they began a small word of mouth catering service highlighting their Great Aunt Dora’s special pulled pork sauce on their mouth watering ribs and their pulled pork sandwiches. At each event they catered the people in attendance, happily munching on the delicious meal, repeatedly told Kenny and Patty around mouthfuls of mouthwatering food, “You should market this!” After hearing it multiple times, the idea finally took seed.....

Posted by: thepinetree on 09/13/2010 11:27 AM
Copperopolis, CA...The Oakdale and South San Joaquin Irrigation Districts are planning to participate in an important flow study involving the main tributaries of the San Joaquin River. These studies are designed to evaluate the impacts and benefits of additional flows on water temperature, dissolved oxygen, and migrating fall run Chinook salmon. These studies will include the Stanislaus River, which would involve changes to the water levels within Tulloch Reservoir. Water levels within Tulloch Reservoir are expected to be different than the United States Bureau of Reclamation (USBR) schedule recently distributed to area residents, agencies and other interested parties.

Weekly Market Update Week of August 30, 2010. ~By Donna Stevenson, Pacific West Financial
Posted by: thepinetree on 09/02/2010 11:49 PM
Copperopolis, CA...THE MARKETS: What is traditionally Wall Street’s quietest month has been about as peaceful as a crowded five-o-clock flight to Las Vegas that’s serving up all-you-can-drink Red Bull. After closing below 10,000 on Thursday, the Dow dropped as low as 9,936 in early Friday trading before finally rallying 165 points (1.7%) to recapture the psychologically important 10,000 level and finally close at 10,150. The S&P 500 and the Nasdaq likewise rose 1.7% for the day. In spite of Friday’s performance, each of the major indexes finished to the downside for the week – proof that the ongoing tug-of-war between strong corporate balance sheets and troubling economic indicators is still exerting an influence on the markets...

So you’ve decided to move to the country where sometimes we need to be reminded that there are parts of the country that are slightly more odd than us. What follows are a few musing from my latest trip to Kentucky with Wyatt and mini Wyatt....With seemingly every visit to Kentucky within the past year my mere presence has brought on monumental flooding, destructive storms and tornados, the locals are beginning to think I might be kin to mother nature herself. So of course this visit, being no different, brought twister warnings within the first day of arrival. So, what to do while waiting for a possible twister? Soak in a friend’s pool of course. That would be a friend with a basement; friends with benefits takes on a whole new meaning round these parts. Pools and basements rank way up there in the benefit department. Just FYI, teeth are pretty low on that list......

Weekly Market Update Week of August 23, 2010. ~By Donna Stevenson, Pacific West Financial
Posted by: thepinetree on 08/27/2010 08:57 AM
Copperopolis, CA...THE MARKETS: Stocks faced another choppy week as concerns surrounding employment and slow economic growth combined with low trading volume to send indexes lower. For the week, the Dow shed 0.9% and the S&P 500 slid 0.7%. The Nasdaq managed a scant 0.3% gain. Even as a stellar earnings season draws to a close, strong corporate balance sheets haven’t been enough to bolster the faltering optimism of investors. Of the 484 companies in the S&P 500 that have reported so far, 75% have beat expectations according to Thompson Reuters (compared with a quarterly average of 62%). Despite this silver lining, the S&P 500 has lost about 0.1% since the beginning of earnings season on July 12th....
