...defunct, lost every game in the Emeryville league doesn't bode well for a career change. But Mikami, 36, isn't done with start-ups: he is diverting some of his earnings to create a winery within three years at his family's 15-acre vineyard of Zinfandel in Lodi, Calif. He's also taking viniculture classes at the University of California at Davis and planning a three-month sabbatical to get his hands dirty interning at a local winery. Again, it will be small and new: he envisions about 1,000 cases for his first vintage...
...soil. As for native suspects, Seas of David--a partly Christian, Muslim, martial-arts, Bible-study group that wore black outfits with a Star of David on the sleeve and met in a pastel orange clubhouse--should defy any attempt at logic. But in cases from Toledo, Ohio, to Lodi, Calif., we do have a rough sketch of which Americans are getting nabbed.

...architectural phases, succinct sketches of virtually every interesting monument in the city, dozens of black-and-white photos and plenty of practical getting-around advice.

Know your history, and it's impossible to keep a straight face as you drive down the posh Lodi Road (named in honor of a dynasty that was routed by a small Mughal force in 1526) up to the gorgeous Safdarjang's Tomb (built for a Prime Minister who started a civil war during which Delhi was plundered by invaders), and continue along the even-posher Prithviraj Road (named...
Fazio holds on, however, despite being under investigation in the same probe of the takeover bid. So what drives the decisions of Italy's top central banker? Some answers can be traced back to 2002, when Fazio traveled to the northern town of Lodi for a conference organized by Fiorani's bank, then called Banca Popolare di Lodi. During the afternoon break, the two men decided to stroll together through the center of town in front of a cadre of journalists. It was a blatant signal to all that Fazio had anointed Fiorani to be the next banker...
