Today's Events

Gov. Brown and UC prez Napolitano are getting together today for their first session of the committee of two.  There is chatter in the news media about this meeting.  Columnist Dan Walters of the Sacramento Bee speculates that Brown is seeking to redo his dad's Master Plan.*  How?  No one seems to know.  Not clear if Brown does, either.  An alternative interpretation, not considered by Walters, is that the guv wants to put them smarty-pants professors in their place.  We'll post more on the regents session of last week and what was said about such matters there later.

Today is also the day for a doctors' strike at UC student health centers about which we posted earlier.**

In short, everything is going well:
