2016 Chevrolet Volt vs Nissan LEAF Ad Video
With the Chevy Volt you never have to be stuck. Some competing electric cars can only take you up to 84 miles on a charge. But the Chevy Volt has an estimated total range of over 400 miles on a full charge and full tank of gas.
Chevy also all electric vehicles, the Spark EV and 2017 Bolt EV
The game changer in EV vehicles will come in 2017, when we expect to see the Chevy Bolt EV and Tesla Model 3. With a range of 200 miles per charge expect many who have been on the sidelines with EV vehicles to jump in as range anxiety will be a worry of the past. Quick charging options will become more readily available.

If you recently have been by Meat District Co. in Old Pasadena and noticed it was closed, it was closed on Oct 6, 2015 due to a Pasadena Health Department inspection and cockroach infestation violation, with a score of 47 of 100, the business was forced to close. To see which food establishments have been closed in the past 60 days you can view them on the city website.
You can see the inspection report here. Note that the sign on the window shows 47, but the city website shows 48.
We believe Meat District will be opened again soon.
This raises questions of the cleanliness of food establishments in Pasadena and how thorough of a job the non LA County Pasadena Inspection department is doing. It appears that the department is making more visits and being more thorough. This is good, but in doing so we hope the department is working with restaurant owners to make the process simple to follow and work with restaurant owners to comply with Pasadena ordinances.
Just in time for Halloween, the Ensemble Shakespeare Theater stitches together Shakespeare’s darkest scenes into one “terrible” evening.
The Ensemble Shakespeare Theater presents: Shakespeare’s Night Of Terror
WHAT: A new play that features the most unsettling scenes from Shakespeare’s writing.
WHO: The Ensemble Shakespeare Theater, a new Pasadena theater company.
WHEN: October 23rdNovember 1st (Fridays and Sundays 8pm, Saturday the 25th 10:30pm, no show on Halloween Oct. 31st)
WHERE: The Lineage Performing Arts Center 89 S. Fair Oaks Ave, Pasadena CA 91105
ADMISSION: $18 online presale, $14 Students/Seniors. $22 at the door.
WEBSITE: www.ensembleshakespeare.org
ABOUT THE SHOW
We all learned that Shakespeare was supposed to be classy. What we learned was wrong. Shakespeare wrote some of the bloodiest, creepiest and most disturbing theater in the English language. His theater had to compete with another racket down the road that fought dogs against bears, and still his theater made lots of money. In fact, Shakespeare is supposed to be dangerous, and that’s exactly what the Ensemble Shakespeare Theater makes it: a thrilling experience of language, love, risk and violence.
Featuring scenes from Shakespeare’s most disturbing plays (Titus Andronicus, Richard III, Macbeth, and more), Shakespeare’s Night Of Terror stars a hellish narrator who guides us through a macabre yet hilarious cast of characters and stories to a bigger point about the nature of human fear and terror.
Starring: Fred Cross, Natalie Fryman, Aaron Leddick, Anastasia Leddick, Shahaub Roudbari, Dustin SternGarcia and Alex Weed. Directed by EST Artistic Director Brian Elerding, director of Shakespeare’s Villains which went to Edinburgh.
