1. The big news yesterday was two fold. First, embattled County Councilwoman Leslie Johnson at the end of July.

Part Two: Her fellow Council members and the current county executive all say .

2. Tuesday, the City Mayor and Council met for a worksession. Check back later today and Thursday for updates on the discussions.

3. Apparently, it's National Fried Chicken Day. Anyone have a local restaurant recommendation to get our friend chicken fill? Don't go crazy on the dessert though, because Thursday is National Strawberry Sundae Day.

4. Today's Featured Facebook Page belongs to Honey Glow Natural Products. According to its info page, the business started as a family hobby that expanded, and now it offers natural products made from honey.

5. Hot and humid is the order for the day (though I'm not sure who would order this weather). Expect a high of 93 degrees at 60 percent humidity and a 40 percent chance of precipitation in the evening.
