Monday  a little warmer today under sunny skies... Low 90's in warmer inland areas... Welcome of to the daily blog posted daily by www.patandmelody.com . It was a pretty good NFL Sunday.  See the Dallas/Eagle game?  A good one.

Don't forget our video joke and blog which is posted around noon time on www.paraquatkelley.com  everyday.   Click on Podcasts.  Stop by and check us out... and send us a joke!

Alert!  Although this alert was sent out specifically for Nichols Canyon it is applicable to every area.  Be cautious with your mail and mailboxes!

Dear Neighbors,
We are having reports of mail thefts this weekend in our neighborhood and the whole way down to the neighbors in lower Nichols.   Please contact Federal Postal Inspector Kelly Castro at 323 586 1986.  You can also go online to the US Postal Inspectors and file a complaint on line.  We would suggest you do both.  It is important for Inspector Castro  hear from you.  It is also important that you get a case number in case you have any fraud related to your mail OR are given late charges because some bill didn't arrive.

We will also notify Officer Sanchez as well. He only has jurisdiction if there was mailbox vandalism but he wants to know about this.  Mail theft is a federal offense.

Also consider getting more secure mailboxes.  The Mulholland Lock Company in Studio City is one of several with stronger, safer boxes.  If we have other suggestions we will post them on our website at Canyon 411.

Stay safe!
Neighborhood Safety Committee
