MONDAY, JULY 15 2013 >>>

1. Author Susan M. Schneider will talk about her new book, The Science of Consequences: How They Affect Genes, Change the Brain, and Impact Our World at 7 p.m. in King's Books. Actions have consequences - and the ability to learn from them revolutionized life on earth. In The Science of Consequences, Schneider, an internationally recognized biopsychologist, brings together research from many scientific fields to tell the story of how something that seems so simple can help make sense of so much.

2. Standup comedy hasn't evolved much since the glory days of ventriloquist and puppet. Every so often, there's a Gallagher smashing watermelons or a musical funnyman like Jack Black, but for the most part, comedy is a dude on a stage with a microphone, plodding through a joke-punchline-new-joke routine. You're funny. You need to change the course of comedy forever. At 8 p.m. the Grit City Comedy Club opens its stage to the public for a comedy open mic.

3. From 6-8 p.m. Monday, July 15, the STAR Center will teach tips and techniques on grilling vegetables, seafood and meat. You even have the opportunity to put these tips to a taste test. Class is $24 for residents and $26 for non-residents. Go to metroparkstacoma.org for registration details.

4. Rockin' blues band Palmer Junction will perform at 8 p.m. inside The Swiss.

5. Acoustic folk musician Anna Gordon joins The Plastic Arts and Joshua Powell & The Great Train Robbery for a 10 p.m. show at Le Voyeur in downtown Olympia.
