Extend Filing Deadline for Monrovia Council? | Monrovia Congresswoman Applauds Allowing Women in Combat | 'Like' Shopping Center | Rain? | New Holden Stuff

~ LA Daily News suggests that Monrovia extend the filing period so more people can run for the City Council. http://goo.gl/xmkAx

~ Congresswoman Judy Chu, who represents the top edge of Monrovia, writes on Facebook: "One of the last bastions of inequality in our military has just been lifted - women will now be allowed to serve in combat. This is a major step towards equality in our armed forces."

~ If you want to keep up with the Foothill Park Plaza (that's the Pavilions shopping center), it now has a Facebook page ( http://goo.gl/G93Wt ). The page will announce "special offers for shopping and dining, new tenants that are opening, and get updates on improvements we have underway, such as improved landscaping, painting, new signage and enhancements to the parking lot!"

~ There is a 60% chance of rain tonight and tomorrow. http://goo.gl/Y3u64

~ Assemblyman Chris Holden, who represents Monrovia, has introduced a bill (AB 139) clarifying that an existing law that imposes a fee of $500 on every person who is granted probation for a crime of domestic violence cannot have that fee reduced for time served. http://goo.gl/Rp5UW

~ Also, here is the text of Holden's bill (AB 156) to make it easier for law enforcement to wiretap in human trafficking cases ( http://goo.gl/N5wWF ). Earlier story here: http://goo.gl/7zmzK
