Up Front 209: Marissa's Closet, a Closet Full of Love
High school prom is a memory that many of us treasure: we met the love of our life, had an unforgettable night, lived it up with our closest friends, or felt like the the most beautiful or handsome person in the room. It's definitely a night to remember, but what if you hadn't been able to attend the prom because you didn't have a dress?

10 Great Dates:
Stocktoberfest
Stocktoberfest
For those who appreciate an icy mug of ale, this year's Stocktoberfest offers waterfront access to craft and micro brews in Downtown Stockton. New this year is Stockton's Homebrew Club, the "Brew Angels," who will be on-site to discuss home brewing and offer tasting of their award-winning beers.
Out of the Dog House: Stockton's Pups Rescue
Marilyn Williams has always been a dog lover, but had no idea she would become Stockton’s most trusted dog savior. In 2000, with her home schooled daughter in first grade and complaining that she was lonely at home on her own, Williams jumped at an ad asking for families to foster puppies through Stockton Animal Shelter Friends. It was only meant to be temporary, but after seeing how many dogs were being killed, Williams kept bringing more pups into her home, and quickly became a local expert on puppy diseases, nursing puppies through ailments from fleas to parvo.
Homegrown Italian: Pietro's of Lodi
Chef Jim Murdaca learned to cook Italian food the old-fashioned way: by eating family dinners. Murdaca was only six months old when his parents moved from Italy to America in 1956, and he grew up immersed in Italian culture. His father, the original Pietro, opened up the first Pietro's restaurant in Vacaville fifty-three years ago, and their family philosophy of serving fresh and simple Italian food has kept the business thriving for half a century. Twenty-seven years ago Murdaca decided to open his own location in Lodi.
