   Good job on the part of the neighbor for calling the police. Good job on the part of the police for responding quickly and apprehending the suspects. I, for one, think this is a serious problem and requires more attention. No one has been physically harmed up to now, and I hope no one ever is. Police officers shouldn’t have to respond to leaf blower complaints, they should be allowed to do more surveillance of residential areas.

   The funny thing is I think they can do both things at the same time. Its the perfect match. Residential surveillance and leaf blower monitoring.

   So Syed, what was the cause for the spike in the unfunded pension liabilities in 2012? Leaf blower monitoring.

   This is likely to be part of it:
   PETALUMA – California’s big public pension funds are continuing to swim in choppy investment waters, leaving the state and local governments gasping for air.
   CalPERS reported a 1 percent annual profit on its investments Monday, following CalSTRS in delivering disappointing results for the latest fiscal year.
   The 1 percent gain was well below CalPERS’ 7.5 percent official forecast and will likely prompt the nation’s largest public pension fund to impose higher contribution rates on the state and participating municipalities. That could create additional stress on cash-strapped public agencies throughout California – and create new fodder for the political debate over the cost of public employee pensions.
   It will be several months before the agencies know how big a rate hike they face, although CalPERS chief investment officer Joseph Dear said the latest investment results “shouldn’t have a dramatic impact” on contributions. As it is, the state contributes around $3.5 billion a year to the California Public Employees’ Retirement System.

   A public service employee sleeping-sitting-texting in a truck/work site, taking long breaks, using sick leave, abusing equipment, stealing equipment, basically not providing the service they were hired for at whatever their rate is, should be as guilty of burglary as any home invasion.
