I live in the worlds most boring town, one week the front page of the paper had "locals in shock after crime spree" you read on and find someone has been stealing gnomes from peoples gardens.
However this week the first intgeresting thing ever is happening, a murder trial for several local people. Not a good thing but it makes a change to what we usually get in our paper

The big story in Northern California right now is a lockout in Oakland preventing garbage workers from working. I guess the city and the labor union couldn't agree, so now the workers are locked out. There are some replacement truck drivers, but there is garbage piling up all over the city and everyone says this is turning into a public health issue.

the city council is trying to ban what they consider dangerous dogs, such as dobermans, rottweilers, pit bull terriers and German Shepard's!! Uproar!! Mostly because its the owners that should be penalised, not the dogs, and, even worse... it only applies to dogs living in council estates! Obviously they must think people who can afford their own housing make better dog owners!
Also, huge murder case,! a women was murdered in her own home a few years ago, the trial is on now, the whole country thinks the husband is guilty, but the evidence is all circumstantial
