A soldier's story
Staff writer Cheri Charlson (ccarlson@VenturaCountyStar.com) has the fascinating story tomorrow of Spc. Jennifer Lee, a 22-year-old soldier from Camarillo who was injured in Mosul, Iraq, in a mortar attack in April. This is a great soldier's story about an impressive young woman.
Also for Page One tomorrow, we're looking at the announcement out of Washington by Sen. Barbara Boxer, D-Calif., on introduction of her bill to protect and restore the ocean's natural habitat, ensure healthy fisheries and strengthen oceans' management.
One of the interesting wire stories that got our attention at the 9 a.m. budget meeting was the decision today by the FCC to speed up deadlines for producing mid-sized TV sets capable of receiving digital signals. That led to a whole conversation about the changeover to digital TV, when it will happen and what it means to me.
Look for some of that in our coverage of the decision tomorrow.
And, as Managing Editor Rich Luna said this morning, there is "a bunch of other stuff" that might make it to page one. But nothing that really excites him at the moment. So we're out on the hunt for news.
