It's all at The Vibiana (you know, the old cathedral!), 210 S. Main St., Los Angeles. Call 626-798-6792, Ext. 2244 for tix and information.
- PSN's social reporter Pat Diroll has a piece on the May 14 benefit for Altadena Christian Children's Center, which honored community activist Joe Wyatt.

It's at 7:30 PM Wednesday (tomorrow) at Eaton Canyon Nature Center, 1750 N. Altadena Drive. Social time starts at 7 PM.
- PSN also has a Janette Williams update on the fate of the Fork in the Road — Bob Stane wants to move it up 15 feet to another area. We say there needs to be a movement to "Bring the Fork Home!" to Altadena (we're all for the Old Marengo pocket park!)
