Apparently two people went into the back yard and broke into the house by smashing the sliding door. They went directly to the master bedroom and bath and stole some cash and jewelry. (But for a talent show, she would have gotten back back home in 10-15 minutes with three kids.)
The responding EGPD officer indicated this has been happening in neighborhoods around Elk Grove Blvd and Bruceville. less

They went through the side gate and gained entry from the back yard by smashing in the sliding glass door. They seem to have gone straight upstairs to the master bedroom, ransacking the bathroom and closet, taking jewelry and some cash. They were "done" pretty quick and (fortunately) were gone when she and the kids got home less than two hours later. (But for the talent show, she and the kids would have been back in just 10-15 minutes.)
Elk Grove PD indicated this sort of "smash and grab" has happened in other Elk Grove neighborhoods by Bruceville. (The culprits may have been driving a grey sedan.)
Wanted to advise although not sure what can be done. We are going to beef up our neighborhood watch and lock the side gate. Given the route they took inside the hourse, not sure a home alarm motion detector woul... less

What a bunch of idiots today trying to go after one of the worlds greatest US companies. I guess 6 billion is not enough for them to spend this year. I believe Rand Paul was the only one with enough guts to speak the truth.
Time to wake up or better yet bury the old fools and get competitive with other countries tax rates!

I am looking for a reputable and skilled tree trimmer to do some property clearance for us. The trees are starting to grow over the neighbor's roof and can interfere with his solar panels.
Does anyone have a recommendation for a good tree trimmer or arborist?
Thank you!

I found a connector with copper attached to it in my yard yesterday afternoon. Later in the evening I noticed all the street lights out on the half of East Pintail closest to the Club House as well as Riparian from the club house to E. Taron. At that time my father happened to notice a street light with it's cover off on Riparian along with wires exposed. Putting the events together it was easy to figure out what happened. I called EGPD and filed a report as well as contacted Stonelake security. Please be vigilant and report suspicious behavior by calling EGPD at 714-5115 (non-emergency) and 714-5111 (emergency). According to the Public Works Manager I spoke with, our neighborhood has been hit a few times in the last few days. Let's see if we can catch these guys in the act and report them to the police department. less

I'm in my early 40's, have my BA (in Social Work), passed cbest about 15 years ago, and have just recently returned to working by subbing (my kids are all school-age now). I would LOVE ANY advice from anybody as I'm considering:
-whether or not to even get my credential
-get a credential/masters simultaneously or just a credential
-how to save (hopefully lots of) money on a credential program
-whether or not to go through Teacher Education Institute(collaboration btw EGUSD & SFSU)
-anybody know anything about "bogs"? from what i can tell, it is pretty-much based on income
-any other advise related to a credential
Since I'm in my 40's, I especially don't want to go into a field that is overly full already. With teachers getting pink slipped and layed off, it seems risky. Yet, I enjoy subbing and I think I would enjoy teaching as a career. I think I could do subbing forever other than the pay is not great, n... less

Imagine something that was a mile wide like Bruceville to Big Horn that just stayed and sucked everything off the ground for 40 minutes from Elk Grove all the up to say Raley Field. The sight and sounds of that would worse than your worst nightmare.

Dr. Smith was the psychiatrist and Dr. Jones was the proctologist; they put up a sign reading: Dr. Smith and Dr. Jones: Hysterias and Posteriors. The town council was livid and insisted they change it. The docs changed it to read: Schizoids and Hemorrhoids. This was also not acceptable so they again changed the sign to read Catatonics and High Colonics – no go. Next they tried Manic Depressives and Anal Retentives – thumbs down again. Then came Minds and Behinds - still no good. Another attempt resulted in Lost Souls and Butt Holes - unacceptable again! So they tried Nuts and Butts – no way. Freaks and Cheeks - still no good. Loons and Moons – forget it. Almost at their wit's end, the docs finally came up with: Dr. Smith and Dr. Jones – Specializing i... less
