Man Stabbed at Drum Circle, Transportation Committee Meeting Postponed

News and notes for the last week of April.

A man is in the hospital after being stabbed with an unknown object during Sunday night's drum circle, according to City News Service. The victim, reportedly in his early 20s, is in stable condition. There are no suspects, and it is not known whether the stabbing was gang-related, CNS reported.

The City Council Transportation Committee meeting for this week has been canceled due to budget discussions. The committee was scheduled to discuss the final draft of the proposed ordinance known as LAMC 85.11, a key component of the , which would allow people living in their vehicles to park legally overnight in designated areas. The committee considered the motion to pass the proposal two weeks ago but was waiting on feedback from the West L.A. Neighborhood Council and final tweaks from the City Attorney's office.

On Tuesday night, the Venice Neighborhood Council will have its monthly board meeting at Westminster Avenue Elementary School. The meeting was postponed from last week due to religious observances. The agenda can be found here and will include an update on the Vera Davis Center and on the possible relocation of the post office.

On Wednesday night, the VNC will be back at Westminster, this time to host a candidates forum for the 36th Congressional District race. The forum will start at 6:30.

This is the last week of April 2011. It is predicted to be sunny all week, with temperatures rising through Wednesday, when Venice hits the mid to upper 70s.

Let me clarify: All I tried to do was re-link to the video that was dumped when Patch revised itsRead More format. The Festival of the Chariots won't be coming to Venice for months.

One year, long ago, Alice Coltrane performed. Anyone know the year? Definitely in the 70's.
