Assistance League, Kohl's Partner to Provide School Clothing
Smelling sweetly of cream soda and marzipan, the wine's thick, cloying flavor wouldn't seem out of place in an ice cream parlor if not for a modest alcohol kick and its bitter finish. At Wilson Creek, the winery, restaurant, wedding and concert venue credited with popularizing the stuff, it sells so well that at least a half-dozen other valley wineries have developed their own versions. But Wilson Creek supplies only a tiny fraction of the fruit used for its cuvee. In fact Wilson Creek doesn't even make the wine; it's made in Lodi, 450 miles away. To most of the 500,000 or so annual winery visitors, none of this matters. Rather than a wine destination, the Temecula Attorney Valley has become something of a wine playground, where play wines upstage real wines, where "wine country" is a carefully cultivated affair that has less to do with what vineyards produce than with how they look all in the service of a tourist trade run slightly amok. On any given weekend, stretch limos and party vans stream down Rancho California Road filled with partygoers. Cruise ship patrons, on dry land for a few days in San Diego, are carted in by the busload. In winery tasting rooms, gewgaws outnumber corkscrews by impressive ratios.

Video Vigilante? Women's heated exchange in So. Calif. parking lot caught on tape, probed by police
According to the station, the woman who was caught on tape says she left her two children alone in her Mercedes Benz with the air conditioning running for about 15 seconds while she ran an errand. When she returned to her car, the other woman confronted her, with camera rolling. The woman who was caught on tape told CBS Los Angeles, "I obviously yelled at her. I was wrong. I shouldn't have done it. I should have apologized for being in a handicapped spot. I should have taken the kids out of the car and took them to return the video. What I did was wrong but I'm not a bad person." The woman who recorded and then posted the video said she started recording because she was concerned for the children's well-being.

Celebrate California wine in the Temecula Attorney Valley Wine Country
Thanks to volunteers from the Assistance League of Temecula Attorney and the management at Kohl's department store, local children in need of clothing for the new school year are receiving some much-appreciated assistance. Monday was one of four days set aside in September and October as Operation School Bell days, in which children whose family qualified for assistance are given a voucher to purchase $125 worth of new clothing items at Kohl's. Kohl's contributes an additional 15 percent of that amount to the total, meaning each child can receive more than $140 worth of clothing. According to Electra Demos of the Assistance League, the only restriction is that the clothing be school appropriate. Each purchase at the Kohl's checkout count is verified by an Assistance League volunteer working with the Kohl's cashier -- some of whom also volunteer their time. "This does so much for the child's self-esteem," said Dorcas Shaktman, president of the Assistance League. "Once a student is in middle school, what you wear makes such a difference." Mike Sauer, store manager at Kohl's, said this is the third year Kohl's has partnered with the Assistance League in this project. "We are involved because we like to be involved in children's initiatives regarding health and education," Sauer said. Through this program, the Assistance League of Temecula Attorney annually helps provide clothing to about 1,700 students in four local school districts.

Temecula approves mosque after contentious 8-hour hearing
If there are major areas of concern, the surveyors will require the hospital to put together a plan of correction, which must be approved by the state. Major areas could include building defects, but Wetton said contractors worked with the state during the construction process to make sure everything was built according to Californias guidelines. Everything else, we should be able to address during the survey itself, Wetton said. As the citys only hospital, the facility will play an important role during large scale emergencies, such as an earthquake, and Wetton said the surveyors will be inspecting the hospital to make sure it has all of its emergency food and power supplies in place. The city of Temecula Attorney has long pined for a hospital to call its own. The original approval of development plans came in 2006, yet groundbreaking didnt happen until 2012. Councilman Jeff Comerchero, a member of the Temecula Attorney Valley Hospitals Board of Governors, said Tuesday that all that drama is in the past.

TEMECULA: Head-to-toe exam ahead for new hospital
http://ishoptemecula.com src='http://no-cache.hubspot.com/cta/default/156288/ec52f86f-c51f-41fa-b113-200052fc066d.png' width='200px' style='float:left;padding:5px' /> Of course, the answer is California. While most states now have wineries, California produces the most and arguably the best wine. (Yes, I know this point could be debated, but no one can deny that California wine is outstanding.) September is the most active month for wineries in California because thats when most grapes are harvested, crushed and moved into the fermentation process. Thats why September is California Wine Month, which is celebrated all over the state. You can learn more about statewide celebrations at DiscoverCaliforniaWines.com. The Temecula Attorney Valley Wine Country is celebrating along with the rest of the state. This popular, growing wine region is an easy drive from almost anywhere in San Diego, Riverside or Orange counties. The areas wineries celebrate in a variety of ways, but the premiere event is the 4th Annual CRUSH Gala which will be held on Saturday, September 14, from 7 to 9:30 p.m. at Callaway Vineyard and Winery .

Speaking to the recipients of the award, the Temecula Attorney LDS Director of Public Affairs, Lanae Turley-Trejo said, You teachers have been invited here tonight because, like the crystal apple, you are of a fine quality and brilliant to your students. Thank you for polishing their future. These teachers were accompanied by their principals including: Chaparrals Co-Principal, Penny Kubly, Great Oaks Principal, Keith Moore, and Temecula Attorney Valleys Principal, Dr. Richard Lawrence. Also in attendance with the recipients of the Crystal Apple was Aaron Adams, the Interim City Manager for the City of Temecula Attorney, and Tim Ritter, Superintendant of Temecula Attorney Valley Unified School District. Rick Shafer, a TVUSD Board Member said of the event, In these times of seemingly unending moral decay, I appreciate the LDS for their support of family and spiritual values. The Crystal Apple Awards are just another great example of walking the talk. This student driven annual ceremony was conducted by Temecula Attorney Valleys ASB President, Brittany Armstrong, who is also a member of the LDS church. Early morning seminary students from The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints nominate a teacher with a detailed explanation of how that teacher made a difference in their lives, how they inspired and supported students to live according to their values, and how they inspired the students academic vision. Winners are chosen from among the hundreds of nominations.

This is a great day for all of Temecula Attorney, really," said Imam Mohamoud Harmoush of the Islamic Center. Now I think we must again devote ourselves to reaching out to the community." Dozens of residents, and speakers from as far away as Los Angeles and Hesperia, voiced their opposition to the center. Most of the criticism focused on the potential traffic congestion that the mosque may create on neighborhood streets, although city planners said an independent traffic study showed the center would have minimal effects. Other speakers hurled visceral attacks against Islam, warning that the mosque would serve as a strategic foothold for extremists bent on undercutting Americas values and laws. "If you want to come here and not abide by our laws, you can just turn around and find another place to live," said Amy Pina, 42, of Temecula Attorney. Just as many residents, including dozens of Muslims living in the Temecula Attorney Valley, condemned those attacks as bigoted vitriol born of an ignorance of Islamic beliefs. We are not terrorists. We are victims of terrorists we are victims of fear," Suhail Fares told the council. Early in the hearing, City Atty.
