Ready to launch

Space shuttle Discovery remains on schedule to launch Wednesday. We're planning a package to run tomorrow to tell you all about the launch and the return to space of the shuttle program. As part of the package, staff writer Marjorie Hernandez (mhernandez@VenturaCountyStar.com) is talking to locals to see if they are concerned about the latest mission and whether they think it is important for the U.S. to be in space.

Also for page one tomorrow we'll update you on claims being filed against the county stemming from damage from last winter's storms.

We have two local stories that were planned for yesterday and held for various reasons. The first is the look at teen jobs and the other is the story on why we have stopped going to the movies, causing a five-month-long slump in movie ticket sales.

Off the wires for tomorrow we're following on arrests in Britain related to last week's bombing; the president's meeting with senators regarding a Supreme Court nominee; more on the ongoing flap over Karl Rove and the news leak; and Laura Bush's visit to African AIDS facilities.
