~ During the Summer Art Walk (7-10 p.m. July 30 along Myrtle in Old Town) there will also be a traditional music performance in the breezeway behind the east-side businesses, featuring Half Again ("Smooth folk with rich harmonies") and the Kattywompus String Band. http://goo.gl/Ca2zB


~ Supervisors for California's Nevada County are unhappy about the rape-kit reporting requirement proposed by Assemblyman Anthony Portantino, who represents part of Monrovia. They say the measure does not provide funding for the extra work. http://goo.gl/qIq5N
