Profiling and Illegal STOPS

Wed, 30 Apr 2008 04:13:38 PDT

BE CAREFUL IN LOS GATOS. FOR SOME REASON THEY THINK EVERYONE IS A CRIMINAL. THEY WILL PULL YOU OVER FOR NOTHING AND TRY TO JUSTIFY IT (GIVE YOU A FIX IT TIX OR ARREST YOU IF THEY CAN). DON'T GIVE LOS GATOS ANY OF YOUR BUSINESS UNTIL THIS PRACTICE STOPS. I HAVE BEEN PULLED OVER, MY ROOMMATE HAS BEEN PULLED OVER FIVE TIMES IN A MONTH, BECAUSE THEY HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING ROBBERIES, SCREW THEM! I DRIVE AN OLDER CAR AND LOOK LIKE I DON'T BELONG, THEY PULL YOU OVER. MY LAST ONE WAS FOR NOT SIGNALING. GIVE ME A BREAK....more

Los Gatos thefts linked to code-stealing device at Lunardi's

Tue, 29 Apr 2008 11:11:40 PDT

At least 25 people have had their debit card and personal identification numbers stolen while shopping at Lunardi's Supermarket, 720 Blossom Hill Road in Los Gatos, police said today.
I've heard about how thieves are getting more high tech and doing this kind of stuff. It's not common but they also have devices that can intercept your PIN number remotely, kind of like how someone hacks into your computer. I've also heard of thieves installing removable boxes inside the blue USPS drop-off boxes to intercept mail that may contain checks, credit...more

Lexington Resevoir Project to Expose Buried Towns

Sun, 04 Nov 2007 07:51:18 PST

QUOTE The towns of Lexington and Alma once provided a colorful slice of Silicon Valley's past. But 55 years ago they were lost forever, submerged under 130 feet of water when Lexington Reservoir was built in the hills south of Los Gatos.
Now the two forgotten communities will have their day in the sun again as construction crews embark next week on a dam-safety project that will drain 98 percent of the reservoir's water by summer next year.

West Valley Collection and Recycling

Tue, 06 Mar 2007 02:37:12 PST

As you may have heard, as of March there's a new waste and recycling collector for Campbell, Los Gatos, Monte Sereno, and Saratoga. West Valley Collection and Recycling is in and Greed Valley is out. Their website alludes to some "hiccups" on their first day of service.
Assuming our collection day remained the same, we certainly had a little hiccup here in my area of the Campbell San Tomas Neighborhood. It's 3pm and we haven't seen a garbage truck yet. I went for a run around noon and there seemed...more

The Grinch Display at the Aerts House in Monte Sereno

Fri, 26 Nov 2004 08:09:34 PST

The Aerts house in Monte Sereno which has done the incredible Christmas displays the past few years is not doing their display this year due to their neighbors successfully lobbying other neighbors and the city to ban his display. The house has received publicity nationwide in the past and it's getting covered again, but this time for the neighborhood dispute.
I can understand the neighbors being a bit upset, but it's a shame that they'd be so ill spirited about it. Personally, I'd put up with the extra hassle if...more
