Morning jolt

• LA Times' Emily Green has a piece on Kazi Pitelka and John Steinmetz and their home (and vast garden) in Altadena -- which they're now trying to sell.  Hope the new owner realizes what they're getting into ...
• Alta-blogger and righteous babe Jennifer Cowie King (The Motherscribe) has a piece in the HuffPo (national, not local version) with some words and proper mom outrage about the sexualizing of young girls (honestly, little girls with "Juicy" on the bottom of their pants is disturbing in the extreme).  We told JCK not to spend her no doubt extravagant AOL check in one place, and she had some words to us about THAT, too!
• If you're a supporter of Young & Healthy (which hooks up PUSD children without health insurance with the care they need), you may want to consider eating at elements kitchen, 37 S. El Molino in Pasadena.  The restaurant is donating 15% of their Monday proceeds on lunch and dinner to  Young & Healthy.
• What are you looking for in a new PUSD superintendent?  The school district's search firm wants to know -- and you have until the end of the day Monday, May 9, to take the online survey (which is available in English and Spanish).   They want as many responses as possible, and the survey is right here.
