Great News!! Newcomb's Ranch survived the Station Fire
Great news this morning via the Fullerton office of Angeles Crest Christian Camp.
Newcomb's Ranch is still standing and serving food and drinks to firefighters. Firefighters are currently setting backfires in the Devil's Canyon area to provide further protection.
Further, more than 300 firefighters are based at Christian Camp and working to protect the camps and creating firebreaks to stop the progression of the fire which is burning in the southern area of Chilao. Camp Eaton, Valcrest and the Horse Flats areas are safe.
The southeastern flank of the fire is burning in the San Gabriel Wilderness Area. This area has not burn since the 1920's. Look for the fire to chew through this brush and make its way east to Hwy. 39 near Crystal Lake and south towards foothills communities such as Sierra Madre Monrovia and Duarte.
Simply, these decades of fuel loading needed some sort of release and the Station Fire is now doing the cleansing which was long overdue.
** Just talk to a LAFD Paramedic (Station 81) who is providing on site first-aid at Christian Camp, who verify the above information. Great Thanks to all our Firefighters!!

If this is not in the city of los angeles, "noone" cares because this is the Home of Los Angeles POLITICS.
It appears you have a sliding scale on what constitutes los angeles politics.

L.A. City Council sends green energy rate hike proposal back to DWP for more work
The Los Angeles City Council voted today to send a plan to raise the city’s electric rates back to the Department of Water and Power, saying the utility needs to do more work on the proposal.
Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa’s appointees on the DWP commission hoped to increase the quarterly surcharge on residential electrical bills to help the utility absorb the rising cost of renewable energy — wind, solar and geothermal power.

so the information on Mayor Sam's blog was incorrect?
How can that be?
There's NEVER any wrong information on this blog!
This must be a first!
Unfortunately, it's hardly the first. It happens all the time here, all with Michael Higby's blessing. He has some nerve complaining (jealously) about Kevin Roderick and laobserved!

3:34 PM is just pissed that Higby isn't posting her trashy comments.

I thought they can only charge for the cost of the service and no more. Isn't upping the electric rates to go green (thereby bypassing a bond measure) illegal?
