| Summit gets Manteca leaders thinking
MANTECA After spending most of Feb. 2 in Marketing Manteca: 101, city officials feel they learned a lot. But the lesson is far from over as Manteca tries to become a "destination" for visitors. The daylong Heart of California Summit featured a series of forums, informal brainstorming sessions and dialogue about branding Manteca and the San Joaquin region as a viable place to visit and spend tourist dollars. "We were extremely pleased with the attendance. It surpassed all of our goals," Visitors and Convention Bureau Executive Director Linda Albedt said. "Most people left that summit with the wheels turning." "We've just opened the book as far as looking at what we can become. Friday was the first chapter," Councilman Steve DeBrum said. "Though having more meetings and gathering input, we'll work at this chapter by chapter.

Avoiding last-minute love
Gender differences have been celebrated, laughed about, cried over and the object of trouble since the beginning, and no holiday celebrates - and illuminates - those differences more than Valentine's Day. In relationships as in the rest of life, it seems pairs sort themselves into the organized one and the, uh, less organized. Retailers know the difference and market to those disparate types. .
