The Milias, the landmark Gilroy restaurant that long ago hosted such famous customers as Will Rogers and Clark Gable, has closed its doors, a dozen years after a local duo returned the downtown icon to its former glory.Two signs on the ornate door tell the story. One encourages residents to keep businesses like this alive. “SHOP SMALL. SUPPORT RESTAURANTS,” it says. Underneath is taped a new notice that reads, “The Milias Restaurant is permanently closed since August 30, 2023,” and lists a phone number for leasing inquiries.“We hope that you have some great memories of the times that we shared at the Milias,” co-owners and friends Adam Sanchez and Ann Zyburra told customers on Facebook in announcing the shutdown, according to the Gilroy Dispatch.Sanchez and Zyburra had been business partners before becoming restaurant partners.

Meet the volcano scientist protecting us from the next California eruption

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 11:30:50 GMT

The next big earthquake. Wildfire perils. Steph Curry breaking both ankles simultaneously. California definitely has its share of potential disasters – but one you might not normally think of involves volcanoes.Give Andy Calvert a few minutes, and maybe he can change that. Calvert is the scientist-in-charge at the California Volcano Observatory in Menlo Park and Moffett Field, a U.S. Geological Survey facility that studies local volcanoes. Yes, they exist: The early-1900s eruption of Lassen Peak devastated the surrounding region and spread ash all the way to Nevada. Eruptions around Mono Lake and Mammoth Mountain occurred relatively recently between 300 to 600 years ago, and Mount Shasta went off about 3,000 years ago and is very capable of a repeat.“All of these volcanoes will erupt again. Whether it’s in our lifetimes or not is uncertain,” says Calvert. “It’s not something all Californians need to worry about, but it is important enough to fund scientists to keep an ey...
