  SACRAMENTO — California’s cities are running out of cash, as pension expenses gobble up growing portions of their budgets. They’ve cut services, raised taxes and come to Sacramento to implore the pension funds and the Legislature to help out, but city governments don’t have the muscle of the state’s public-sector unions, which fight reform.
  Here’s more of a reality check: These fiscal problems are becoming dire even though the stock market is at record levels,

• Home prices dip in 88% of California

  20-01-2026 16:24 via ocregister.com
  
  Here’s some modest relief for California house hunters: values were falling in 88% of the state as 2025 ended.
  To get a local sense of where prices are going, my trusty spreadsheet reviewed home value data from Zillow for 125 of the nation’s largest metropolitan areas, including 16 from California.
  In the 12 months ended in December, values were down in 14 of the 16 California metros. But savings were meek, with the largest dip found in Stockton, off only 4% last year vs up 2% in 202

  Discovering new facts is not the only way to learn. Sometimes, just putting facts together in a new way can unlock fresh understanding.
  An example? Watching Leslie Iwerks’ wonderful new documentary, “Disneyland Handcrafted,” I realized that Disneyland (established 1955) is older than the U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA, established 1971).
