It's an Altadena kind of day in the California section of today's LA Times:
- Ricardo Lopez has a piece about beleaguered "Sgt. Mac" McFarland and his boot camp woes, taking a side trip into the troubles of "Sarge" Keith Gibbs;
- Teresa Watanabe looks at the Educate Our State training in Los Angeles this weekend, quoting Altadena education activist Cushon Bell at the very end;
- And Matt Stevens has a piece on the renewed Fork in the Road. (We consider "Fork Plaza" where it lives to be a colony of Altadena inside Pasadena).
