How hot is it

As the heat continues through this weekend, staff writer Zeke Barlow (zbarlow@VenturaCountyStar.com) will take a look for tomorrow's Star Page One at problems of heat exposure for those who spend their days working outside. Two recent deaths of farmer workers in Kern County from heat exposure have sparked a bill in the California legislature that would give farm workers protection in hot weather. In addition, we'll be following today's heat and power usage.

Also for Page One tomorrow we'll have a follow on the judge's decision to bump Proposition 77 from the November ballot. Sacramento bureau chief Timm Herdt (therdt@VenturaCountyStar.com) will see what impact that decision will have on the remaining issues on the ballot.

Off the wires, we'll be following latest developments in the bombing in London with the shooting death today of a suspect in the London subway.
