Occasional News Briefing -- June 28, 2007

Free ride/ Take it easy.

A pox of thefts and rip-offs for Glendale's cornucopia of BMWs, according to the News Press

The Whole Foods-Burbank Rancho flap revisited -- the City Council made it tougher for the grocery stores to bulid in the equestrian neighborhood, but veterans of the war against a proposed Whole Foods market earlier this year say it didn't go far enough. Daily News

A surprise for Glendale attorney Helen White -- she was cleaning up the affiars of a deceased client when she came across a $962,120 medical bill. Dusanka Mlinarevich of Burbank spent four days at Glendale Adventist Medical Center after a minor fall at her Burbank home last year. Except, the hospital told White the bill was $48,106. And so begins White's quest correct a near-$1 million medical bill with insurance. Times

Hey now, I'm just going with Wikipedia on this, and it says Montrose is really La Crescenta-Montrose, "an unincorporated area in Los Angeles County, California, encompassing those parts of the Crescenta Valley not in the cities of Glendale or La Cañada Flintridge."

But I'm willing to be convinced otherwise.

Well, the Glendale map on my wall says Glendalian Montrose bordered by Pennsylvania on the east, Lowell Ave. on the west and Mayridge to the north -- it's a tentacle digging into the San Gabriels.

But hey, who's really keeping track except for tax collectors and reporters with nothing better to do?
