16 vs. 18 gauge Stainless Steel sink? Ticor or Universal?
After reading messages in this forum, I know that 16 gauge SS is stronger and better than 18 gauge....but will I notice the difference? I like this Ticor 16 gauge sink a lot :
The one the granite fabricator is "throwing in" is only an 18 gauge.... Similar shape, but no grid. Should I try to get an allowance from the fabricator to put in the Ticor one I want, or will the 18 gauge "freebie" be ok? I guess I could buy a grid elsewhere???
16 is commonly used in zero and half radius sinks because the thicker steel is needed when the shapes are not stamped out. Either is wonderful providing the grade of the steel itself is high quality.
The percentage of nickel and chromium determines corrosion resistance. The higher the percentage, the better the grade of stainless. 304 grade stainless is comprised of 18% chrome and 10% nickel.
Look for "Certified" 304 Stainless Steel.
Not all sinks have grids. The shape you are considering is not a common shape so you will most likely need one specific to your sink from the manufacturer. In addition, the cost could be $50 or it could be $150 or more. Do your research; do not assume anything.
I went through this a month ago when we bought our granite. We were given a free 16 gauge sink. I wasn't impressed and started thinking that it was quite ridiculous to pay for granite and then use a cheap sink. I bought a Ticor sink but a single bowl. It is the size of a double bowl without the separation. It is wonderful. I can fit a whole cookie sheet in. My advice, go for the better sink.
I'm in the same boat. I haven't yet purchased a sink but they had some 16G c-tech sinks at the granite place and they looked beautiful and felt so sturdy and solid. I think I'll go with 16G. I heard some manufacturers fudge the on gauge because they report the "thickest" point, not the average. CHeck out Kraus. They seem a bit more affordable than c-tech.
Just found out that they will give me a whoppin' $50 allowance if we don't get their sink..... Is that a bit ridiculous, or what? Oh well.....what are ya gonna do? Guess we'll just get the sink we like and figure what's another couple hundred when spening thousands? Wish I could figure out a way to save some every now and then, but it seems to always be the other way around!

Columbus Double Murder Suspect Wounded By Police
Columbus police say a double murder suspect was shot and wounded Wednesday by officers near Parsons Avenue and Kossuth Street. He was taken into custody shortly after the killings.
Listen to the Story
The Ohio Bureau of Workers' Compensation says a laptop has been stolen from an employee's home. It's the second data theft involving a state employee reported this month.
The laptop was stolen May 30th from the home of the agency's auditor but wasn't announced until today. The laptop contained Social Security numbers on 439 Ohio injured workers.
The data was password protected, but as a precaution the injured workers are being offered free identity protection services.
Governor Strickland said earlier this month that a separate electronic device had been stolen from an intern's unlocked car that contained personal information on state employees and the names and Social Security numbers of 225,000 taxpayers.

OT: Anyone from Lubbock?
Also posted under the Conversations folder.
This is totally off topic, i.e., gardening, but in the past GW sites have helped.
My gd will be going to TX Tech for grad school in May. Which direction from TX Tech would be a safe environment to look for housing, N, E, S or W? This is her first time being away from home and we will miss her terribly. Thanks for any info.
Hi Eloise,
I lived in Lubbock for the last 7 years and only slightly relocated (100mi away) this summer for a work opportunity. I also went to school at Tech.
I'd suggest your gd stay away from the east side of Lubbock. Anything east of Ave Q is a definite NO. Most places east of University Ave I would suggest she avoid, too, unless they are strictly student apartments. The large student apartments located directly east of the actual TTU campus are pretty safe. The neighborhoods a little further south of those apts are less safe. There is a thread on the City Data forum that is less than a year old that should be pretty helpful. There is a map on the 2nd page of that discussion which does a pretty great job showing which side of town is more desirable and safe.
I hope that helps. If you have any more specific questions, feel free to ask. I loved living in Lubbock and would move back in a heartbeat.
Also, LubbockApartments.com is a good resource if looking to rent an apartment. Lots of information in one place. Best of luck to her!

End of Month View October 2014
October has raced past in a blur of unseasonal warmth.

One Book One Siouxland 2012
Fahrenheit 451, by Ray Bradbury, is the 2012 selection for One Book One Siouxland, the community-wide reading initiative in the tri-state area. Now in its 7th season, One Book One Siouxland continues to share ideas and build community through the experience of reading and discussing the same book, and viewing a film adaptation of the story. Click the "Events" tab at http://www.onebookonesiouxland.org for more information.
Written in the early years of the Cold War, this 1953 classic is described as a dystopian novel. Unlike a utopian, or "perfect world" vision, Bradbury presents a worst-case scenario, exaggerating a current trend to make a point. Concerned with the growing disregard for reading and the allure of television, his novel presents a future American society where reading is outlawed and firemen start fires to burn books. Bradbury wrote the entire novel in the basement of a Library, later calling it his "dime novel" since the Library charged 10¢ per half-hour to use the typewriter.
Fahrenheit 451 is a short and entertaining read, not to mention a science fiction classic. Check it out and join the conversation! One Book One Siouxland is sponsored by the Sioux City Public Library, the South Sioux City Public Library and the North Sioux City Community Library, in partnership with The Institute for Lifelong Learning, Western Iowa Tech Community College, and Morningside College. Financial support is provided in part by the Friends of the Sioux City Public Library.
The read-to-me story dogs are back for a series of visits each Saturday (now through April 28) from 2 to 3 p.m. at the Wilbur Aalfs Library. Children of all ages are invited to read aloud to these gentle canine listeners. No appointment necessary. Our thanks to the volunteers and therapy dogs from canine S.T.A.R.S. for their continued support of this reading partnership.
Caldecott award winner announced
The American Library Association has awarded the 2012 Caldecott Medal to Chris Raschka for A Ball for Daisy. This medal is awarded annually to the illustrator of the "most distinguished American picture book for children, published in the United States, during the preceding year."
In a wordless book with gentle, dreamlike spreads, Daisy, a feisty, black-eared dog, plays with a beloved red ball indoors and out, before a climactic encounter with another dog in the park. Raschka conveys a bevy of canine moods (ecstatic, expectant, downtrodden) with brush strokes reminiscent of calligraphy, while the red ball adds striking contrast. When a brown dog causes the ball to pop, Daisy's forlorn expression turns gleeful as the same brown dog reappears with a blue ball, letting Daisy take it home. Readers should relate to Daisy's sadness over the loss of her treasured object while understanding that such losses can sometimes lead to unexpected gains--maybe even a friend. Ages 3–7.

Arsenal duo Per Mertesacker and Tomas Rosicky have both committed their futures to the Premier League club by signing new contracts, BBC Sport has reported.
Central defender Mertesacker has been at the club since August 2011, and been a regular starter for much of his Arsenal career so far, striking a successful partnership with Laurent Koscielny. The 29-year-old, who has made 39 appearances in all competitions this season, would have been out of contract at the end of next season.
Midfielder Rosicky's deal was set to run out in June, but he also has decided to extend his Arsenal stay, which has lasted since the summer of 2006. He is yet to win a trophy with the club, but he has made 209 appearances, scoring 24 goals.
Gunners boss Arsene Wenger told the club's official website: "They are players of exceptional quality and experience. They have consistently proven themselves at the highest level.
"There is a great feeling of togetherness and belief in the group and this news will only help to strengthen this further."

God you lot are pathetically shallow. Why do you have his obsession wth having to mention trophies every time you talk about Arsenal? We are not one of the richest three clubs in the country and do not have a right to win trophies so why the constant references? I trust that at the end of the season you will be talking about Juan Mata who "is yet to win a trophy with the club" or Soldado, who "is yet to win a trophy with the club" or Suarez who "is yet to win a trophy with the club". No I didn't think so.
The media has become compeltl OCD about this ned to continually denegarte Arsenal at evry opporrtunity. Grow up and act like a real journalist i that's possible.

Efforts under way to halt BRA permit pending audit
Representatives of the Brazos River Alliance have asked the governor to suspend the Brazos River Authority's (BRA) permit for additional water rights until the agency can be audited under a new law that goes into effect Sept. 1.
They also asked that the BRA be placed at the top of the audit list, ahead of other river authorities. There are approximately 20 in Texas.
"It was a nice, long and – I think – productive discussion," Alliance President Ken Hackett said of the meeting that took place at the Capitol last Thursday with three of Gov. Rick Perry's top legislative aides.
Another meeting with the governor's aides is scheduled for Monday, Aug. 26 – before judges at the State Office of Administrative Hearings determine who will get "party status" in discussions about whether the BRA's permit should be granted.
In addition to Hackett, other members of the Alliance who attended last week's meeting were David Haley, Mark Grella, Gary Newton and Kit Gretchel. Three local elected officials also were there: County Judge Darrell Cockerham and Granbury City Council members Tony Allen and Gary Couch.
Hackett said that staffers for state Sen. Brian Birdwell and state Rep. Jim Keffer were at the meeting and stated that their bosses are in favor of delaying the permit discussions.
The audit mandate that will go into effect in the coming weeks is due to the two lawmakers.
In March, Birdwell (R-Granbury) and Keffer (R-Eastland) filed companion bills designed to increase oversight and transparency of Texas' river authorities.
HB 2362 and Senate Bill 1092 called for mandatory financial audits of river authorities by the State Auditor's office, as well as a performance review by the Legislative Budget Board. Both are independent agencies overseen by legislative committees.
At the time that Birdwell and Keffer issued a joint news release about the bills, Matt Phillips, government and customer relations manager for the BRA, told media representatives that the agency is already an "open book," but not opposed to increased transparency.
Late Monday, Keffer's office emailed this statement from the representative to the Hood County News about last week's meeting:
"During this historic and devastating drought, I believe granting any additional water rights permits should be handled with extreme caution.
"I feel that it is completely reasonable for the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality and (the) Brazos River Authority to delay the permit process until a formal audit from the state has been conducted on the BRA.
"In the name of transparency and reasonable conservationism, these requests should be honored."
Efforts to reach Birdwell for comment were unsuccessful before press time. However, Hackett said that the senator's chief of staff said at the meeting that Birdwell had already contacted the State Auditor's Office to request that the BRA be the first river authority audited under the new law.
Hackett said that members of the Hood County contingent expressed concern to the governor's representatives about the data the BRA had used in its permit request.
"We believe the new river audit bill gives the TCEQ the reasoning for delaying this permit to verify all of the numbers that they (BRA) have submitted," Hackett stated.
"We're not here to lop off anybody's head, but we are here to certainly question the information they are giving us."

Yea ima knock twice when I get there
from Frank Ocean – U Got it Lyrics on Genius
Playing on the custom of knocking on the door of the person you're visiting. If he knocks twice, she'll surely know he's there, and let him in.
He's going to have sex with her twice, just after he gets there. 'Knocking the Boots' is a term made popular in the 90's by the H-Town song by the same name. The term plays on the idea that during missionary sex, the feet of the male and female are close, and, if they kept their 'boots' on, they would 'knock' up against each other.

Art. 1. Officials Art. 1.1 Chairman of Technical Committee The Chairman of the Technical Committee shall act as a member of the Appeals Board together with the Referee Committee and the Board of Directors members. Art. 1.2 Referee and Judges During World or other international championships, each bout in a ring must be supervised by two WAKO in- ternational acknowledged Chief Referees (alternating Observer/Organizer) of the Ring, especially appointed by the International Referee Committee, who can officiate in the ring, but who will not fill out score sheets. Each bout is graded by three International Judges. The three WAKO judges will be seated away from the spectators and close to the ring. Each of the three judges must be seated in the middle of three respective sides of the ring. To ensure neutrality, the referee and the three judges for each bout will be chosen by a chief referee of the Ring on duty for that ring, according to the following rules: Each official will come from a country and federation different from that of the others and from that of the fighters. In no way may two of the officials of the same bout come from the same country, unless it is due to an uncontrollable event. An official may not be born or live in a country which is a dominion, colony or in any way dependant of the country of either kickboxer taking part in the bout. In the case of an official having changed nationality, he will not officiate in a bout where one of the fighters or other officiating judges come from his native country. In the case of the Observer/Organizer of the Ring not being able to apply the above-mentioned direc- tives due to special circumstances, it will find a solution which will ensure neutrality and impartiality of appointed officials, followed by a prompt report to the International Referee Committee. In the case of the Chief referee of the Ring not being able, for any reason, to apply the preceding di- rectives, the name or names of the Official or Officials will be chosen by drawing lots, by the Chairman of the International Referee Committee, or any other person on his behalf, for the bout in question. In the case of international matches between the teams of two or more national associations, a bout could be supervised according to an agreement between the official representatives of the federations in question, provided that the agreement does not go beyond basic refereeing principles set forth in the in WAKO regula- tions. Persons in charge of the refereeing or judging of a bout, or a series of bouts, will not at any moment of the bout or bouts be allowed to act as a manager, trainer, coach or second of a kickboxer or team of kickboxers taking part in a bout, or to act as an official in a match in which a fighter from his country participates. The International Referee Committee or its official representatives, in order to comply with the request of the jury, temporarily or permanently can suspend from his functions any referee who, in their opinion, does not respect WAKO regulations, or any judge whose marks are not considered satisfactory. Should the referee be inadequate in the course of a bout, the Chief Referee of the Ring will hold him back and stop the match. The next referee on the WAKO international list of neutral referees will receive the nec- essary instructions to direct and officiate the rest of the bout. A referee will officiate in the ring. He will wear a WAKO uniform (navy blue jacket with WAKO insignia on it, black gym shoes, gray pants, white WAKO shirt and WAKO bow-tie for qualification and finals). Chapter 7_final WAKO Rules of RingSports_General Rules_V1 Page 3 to 9 WAKO General Rules of Ring Sports Art. 1.3 Referee The Referee must: Check the safety equipment and clothes of the fighters (unless differently decided by Tournament Committee) Make sure that a weakened kickboxer does not suffer unjust and unnecessary blows. Make sure that the rules of fair play are strictly observed. Supervise the whole of the bout. At the end of a bout, he gathers and checks the score sheets of the three judges. After verification, he must hand them to the Chief Referee of the Ring on duty. The central referee must not announce the winner by raising the kickboxer's arm or in any other way announce decisions. If a referee (after having so decided by majority decision with the three judges) disqualifies a kickboxer or stops the fight, he must first indicate to the (chief referee) of the Ring the kickboxer who has been disqualified and give the reasons for stopping the fight, so that the Chief Referee of the ring can inform the announcer, who will then, make the public an- nouncement. He must use three command words: STOP when he orders the kickboxers to stop fighting BREAK to break a body to body position, after which each boxer must draw back without kicking or punching before continuing the fight FIGHT when he orders the fight to continue In order not to disturb a close fight, the referee should not stand in the way or break in too early. When the winner is announced, the referee must then raise the winning kickboxer's arm. He must indicate to the kick- boxer, by appropriate signs or gestures, any violation of the regulations. Art. 1.4 Referee's power The Referee has the power to: Stop a fight at any moment if he finds it too one-sided. Stop a fight at any moment if one of the kickboxers has received an unauthorized blow or is wounded, or if he considers a fighter unable to continue. Stop a fight at any moment if he finds the fighters behaving in an "unsportsman-like" manner. In such a case, he may disqualify one kickboxer. Warn a kickboxer or stop the bout and give a minus point or warning to a kickboxer for an offence. Disqualify a coach or a second who has broken the regulations, or a kickboxer himself if the coach or the second fails to obey to his orders. Disqualify, with or without a warning, a fighter who has committed an offence. In the case of a KO, suspend the count if a kickboxer deliberately refuses to withdraw to a neutral cor- ner, or is reluctant to do so. Interpret the rules as long as they are applicable or compatible with the fight taking place, or, at a spe- cial moment, decide on an action that does not appear in the rules. If a kickboxer breaks the rules but does not necessarily deserve a disqualification, the referee must stop the fight and give a warning to the kickboxer of a foul. Before the warning, the referee must order the kickboxers to stop fighting. The warning must be given clearly, so that the kickboxer in question understands the reason and cause of the penalty. The referee must hand signal to each judge that a particular warning has been given and clearly show which kickboxer has been punished. After having given the warning, the referee or- ders the kickboxers to fight. If a fighter has been given 3 official warnings within the same bout, he is dis- qualified. A referee may give a caution to a kickboxer. A caution is an unofficial warning given by a referee to a kick- boxer for breaking a rule. In order to do this he doesn't need to stop the fight, and may reprimand the kick- boxer during the fight. Chapter 7_final WAKO Rules of RingSports_General Rules_V1 Page 4 to 9 WAKO General Rules of Ring Sports Art. 1.5 Health and safety The referee in ring-sports must use plastic gloves and he must change them after every fight in which blood has occurred. At ringside there must be soft paper tissue to be used by the central referee on the fighters Soft paper tissue used on one fighter cannot be used on another fighter. Art. 1.6 Kick-Counter A kick-counter is a judge who sits in a neutral ring corner. The coaches must be able to see the counter. It is mandatory to use kick-counter in all WAKO World and Regional Championships. It is also recommended to use this in all other WAKO sanctioned tournaments like World Cups or Open Tournaments. The kick-counter reports to the referee after every round regarding any missing kicks. The only responsibility of the kick- counter is to assure that the fighters have delivered enough kicks (6) in each round. In all WAKO World and Regional Championships it is mandatory that the kick-counter use a board with visible red and blue numbers. In other tournaments clickers can be used, though the use of boards is recommended. Art. 1.7 Referee's medical check-up Before officiating in an international tournament regulated according to the above-mentioned rules, a referee must submit to a medical check-up in order to prove his physical fitness to fulfil his role in the ring. A referee is not allowed to wear glasses, but he may wear contact lenses. The referee is obliged to attend the meeting organized by the Medical Committee, before each championship. Art. 2. Judges Each judge must independently consider the merits of the two fighters, and must chose the winner according to the regulations. During the match, he will not talk to the fighters, other Judges or anybody else, with the exception of the refe- ree. He may, if necessary, at the end of a round, notify the referee about any incident that he has missed, for example tell him about the misbehaviour of a second, loose ropes, etc. A judge will mark the number of points (10-10, 10-9, 10-8 etc) granted to each fighter on his score sheet and in professional bouts and only his decision will be announced to the public at the end of the match. During the round the judge will use the back of the scorecard to register the number of hits he sees, either by a number or by numbers of lines. Always the red corner is on the left side and the blue corner on the right side of both sides of the scorecard. The points/recorded hits must be tallied separately by rounds. He will not leave his place until the decision has been announced. It is mandatory for all judges to use a clicker during fights. It is important to clarify in front of a tournament be- tween WAKO, promoter or Judges themselves to bring this equipment. Art. 3. Timekeeper The task of a timekeeper is to keep track of the number and the duration of rounds as well as the break time. He will be seated at ringside. Ten seconds before the beginning of each round, he will clear the ring, giving the order "seconds out" He will ring the gong at the beginning and at the end of each round. He will announce the number of the round, before it starts. He will stop the clock temporarily, when asked to do so by the referee. He will keep track of extra time with a watch or a stopwatch If, at the end of a round, a boxer is on the floor, and the referee is counting him out, the gong must ring at the end of two minutes, even if the central referee must still finish his count. Intervals between the rounds will last one minute. The time must be visible all times for the coaches Chapter 7_final WAKO Rules of RingSports_General Rules_V1 Page 5 to 9 WAKO General Rules of Ring Sports Art. 4. Special Note All referees, judges and officials working a tournament, whether on or off duty, are not allowed to take action on behalf of a team/nation as coach or in any other way show favoritism (screaming, cheering like any coach/fan).

Age Categories specifications: Juniors Category: 16, 17 and 18 years old. Meaning from the date he/she turns 16 years and up to the day he/she turns 19. Seniors Category: 18 to 45 years old. Meaning from the date the he/she turns 18 years and up to the day he/she turns 46 • Specification during championships/tournaments: In case of birthday during a tournament that changes the age category, he/she can compete in the lower category until the tournament is over. A tournament period is defined as from the day of the official weigh-in/registration and until the finals is fin- ished. • Ring Sports specifications for Juniors: The date in which he/she turns 18, he/she can decide to be either a junior or senior. However if he/she has competed as a senior at the age of 18 he/she cannot go back to competing as a junior again. Chapter 7_final WAKO Rules of RingSports_General Rules_V1 Page 8 to 9 WAKO General Rules of Ring Sports • Legitimation: Positive proof of age will be required at all championships (passport or driving license). • Only one weight-class: In WAKO championships, it is only possible to start and compete in one weight class. • See General Rules of either Tatami Sports or Ring Sports for other requirements, as health certificate. Art. 8.4 Weigh-in In World and International championships, as well as International competitions, the following rules must be respected: Fighters of each weight category will be weighed the day before the competition or in the morning between 8 and 10 on the same day they have been drawn to fight. The International Tournament Committee, or any other WAKO official delegate, will be allowed to modify these conditions in case of an inevitable postpone- ment. The fights will start at least 3 hours after the weigh-in time, or in a shorter lapse of time if the Tourna- ment Committee so decides after consulting with the Medical Committee, provided that the decision is not prejudicial to any kickboxer taking part in the first bouts of the tournament. The Tournament Committee authorizes delegates to perform at weigh-in. WAKO representatives of any na- tional association may be present, but are not allowed to intervene on any occasion. Each fighter will be officially weighed only once. The weight registered on that occasion is final. It is permit- ted, nevertheless, for the fighter who has not reached the right weight during the official weigh-in, to come back within 1 hour maximum. In this case, if he again cannot make the weight, he is disqualified. Before being weighed, each fighter must be declared fit for fighting by a qualified doctor. The weight is what the scale reads when the fighter is undressed. The weight must be displayed in metric measures. Electronic scales can be used. A fighter is allowed to fight solely within the category defined at weigh-in. Each fighter must be in possession of a card with a written consent of a medical doctor as well as the deci- sion of the official in charge of weigh-in. In tournaments, ring sports have daily weigh-ins, or at least 3 weigh-ins during the tournament. The weigh- ins are done in the morning between 07.00 and 09.00 a.m. All fighters must bring their own national passport as identification. Art. 8.5 International Bouts In the case of tournaments or competitions between two or more nations, the weigh-in shall be carried out by a member appointed by the national association of the organizing country, with representatives of the par- ticipating countries present and allowed to verify the weight of each kickboxer. With each victory, the kickboxer will earn 2 points for his team: with each defeat, he will earn 1 point for his team, except in the case of being disqualified, when no points will be granted. The association of the country which hosts a "visiting" team will provide it with weigh-in scales for the purpose of weight check and a train- ing area when the last visitor has arrived in the town where the match takes place. WAKO referees (in world, international or national matches) will referee each bout: two or three judges may equally officiate if necessary. Each fighter must, before weigh-in, be judged fit for fighting by the doctor appointed by the Tour- nament Committee. In order to assure a successful weigh-in, the Tournament Committee can decide to start the medical check-up earlier. Art. 9. Special violations of Rules If a fighter, coach or a whole team protests without leaving the ring immediately after the fight, the Chairman of Ring Sports, after consultation with the Board of Directors or the tournament organization, is allowed to disqualify the entire team. Note For better readability the text sometimes uses masculine pronouns only. However, all references to persons apply to both genders.

I personally have never really had a money issue with a buyer, once I found an actual buyer. Lots of people will say they are a buyer, but are not. You can tell when someone is serious. Last August, I put my truck on Craigslist. A total of 9 minutes went by before a guy called. I talked to him for 20 min, and it was obvious he wanted it. He told me up front it would be a few days before hen could come out, but he did everything he said he was going to, and on time. (I had removed the ad immediately after his first phone call.) So it took a week to complete the sale, but everybody was happy. Communication is also key.

Adria and Jeffrey's Trip with a Ford Zip Car
While in San Francisco, Adria and I went up to Petaluma. In order to do that, we would need a car. Good thing Zip Car is in the area. Even better that Ford just added a bunch of cars to their fleets. Zip Car is a rent-as-you-go service. You schedule a car, pick it up, drive, then take it back to the spot. No worries on gas, insurance or other concerns. That all is included in the rental price. Adria goes over the main aspects of the Zip Car. I talk about the car we are driving - the Ford Focus. We even show that the trunk is roomy. The drive to Petaluma was a fun one. Of course, it meant we have to cross right over the Golden Gate Bridge. Otherwise it was like Wisconsin. Open fields and cows. Only difference was the grass wasn't as green as the dairy state. The Ford Focus is a CrossOver that gives 40 Miles Per Gallon on the Highway. It is part of the green initiative. The vehicle does have voice assist and an impressive list of features. No XM radio, but that doesn't bother us. All in, it was a great trip. We got to see the TWiT brick house and meet up with friends and new faces, too.

California voters approved the use of medicinal marijuana in 1996.
Kim Raney with the California Police Chiefs Association says the time has finally come for law enforcement to have a voice in setting the rules.
"It's our goal that this legislation will provide more of a legitimate doctor-patient relationship, where there has to be an in-person visit, a real relationship with the doctor."
Under the bill, primary care physicians would have to write referalls for medicinal pot prescriptions. The State Department of Health would also regulate the medicinal pot industry.
Doctor Amanda Reiman with the Drug Policy Alliance says the bill is too prohibitive.
"We believe the guidelines are far too restrictive and in the end would actually upset access for qualified patients in California."
Reiman also says that the Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control should regulate medicinal cannabis as a restricted product.

South African food retailers including Shoprite Holdings Ltd. and Spar Group Ltd. are favored over local clothing and furniture retailers as food inflation accelerates, according to JPMorgan Cazenove.
Euro zone banks need at least 150 billion euros ($202 billion) of capital provided through a Europe-wide Troubled Asset Relief Program akin to the U.S. plan, according to a report by JPMorgan Cazenove.
JPMorgan Cazenove analysts cut their earnings outlook for investment banks for 2011, 2012 and 2013, citing worsening conditions in fixed income and equities.

"That was the first time Ireland tested out the state – corporate nexus. What they were doing was very simple. They were sorting out their template here in Rossport. The line is: 'go in hard',"
Potential hydraulic fracturing or "fracking" and refining of gas drawn from the Kinsale and Corrib gas fields will be monitored by the State's energy regulator before the end of next year.
Fines of up to €3 million or imprisonment for up to three years may be imposed for breaches, according to the Commission for Energy Regulation in a document published yesterday.
It promises "extensive" monitoring and enforcement of the new safety system, which will apply to both onshore and offshore oil and gas exploration and extraction, including shale gas "fracking", if licensed here.
The controversial "fracking" technique is currently the subject of a second study by the Environmental Protection Agency, which will inform the approach to be taken by Minister for Energy Pat Rabbitte.
Penalties for breaches of the commission's new safety system will include an immediate suspension of activities on foot of an emergency direction order or a court application.
Production could be halted altogether if developers lose their safety permit.

Michelle Singletary: Making mortgages sustainable
It seems so basic — require mortgage lenders to qualify borrowers based on their ability to repay the loan. Yet this wasn't the case for many mortgages in the run-up to the housing crisis contributing to the mess we're still in now.
Nevertheless, you can hear criticism of the new mortgage rules that became effective Friday. Under the federal government's ability-to-repay rule, lenders must make a "reasonable, good-faith determination" that an applicant can afford the mortgage.
Critics say the stronger mortgage requirements could make it harder for people to quality.
Yes, that's the point. We had to move away from how things were. For the last several years, I've worked with many homeowners struggling under burdensome mortgages. I'd often look at their loan papers and shake my head. How could they manage such large monthly payments after some ridiculously low teaser rate expired? What were they thinking?
But I also want to smack the people who approved many of these mortgages. It may have been legal in most cases, but that didn't make it right.
So many people got loans without lenders verifying their incomes. Some loans were interest-only. Borrowers got loans with super-low adjustable rates that, when reset, consumed an unstainable amount of their incomes. Some people even were approved for loans with negative amortization in which their payments didn't even cover the interest. Such loans shouldn't be made, says Richard Cordray, director of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.
I sat down with Cordray just before the ability-to-repay rule went into effect. As part of the changes, so-called "qualified mortgages" must have relatively low fees. The loans can't have certain features such as allowing a borrower to pay only interest. Generally, borrowers can't have total monthly debt, including mortgage payments, that exceeds 43 percent of their gross income.
There was one word Cordray kept coming back to in order to address the complaints from critics: sustainable. "Homeownership is still one of the best ways to build sustainable wealth as long as you're getting a reasonable mortgage that can succeed over time," he said. "Again, all we're doing here is really going back to basics, which is the kind of lending that was done historically. ... A back-to-basics approach to us makes a lot of sense, both on the lending side and on the servicing side, and I think it's going to be good for the market."
Also included in the new approach are tougher requirements for mortgage services. Companies that service loans now have to send monthly statements so borrowers can clearly see how their payments are being credited.

Our Price:
These are really great looking. The giant centipede should be a blast and the carrion king is great.you get all the unique monsters and npc which is awesome. I really loved the unchosen and the giant centipede. This set is freaking awesome.
Our Price:
I love crystals art, but I should of thought of two things. Number one the price point and number two well I ordered the minis for carrion king with this and that has a set of minis that I can use for the caravan so I do not know. I feel like I wasted money on this one, but still they luck really good. Crystals art just pops too me, I like the whimsical cartoon art. So I am not happy I bought this but I like the art so I can not bring it down on my own dumb ass choices.
I really like this one. I fell in love with sandpoint when I ran rise of the ruin lords and was really happy to see some of those characters are coming back. Shalelu and ameiko was are such intersting npc.
I love the section on oni, seems really thought out and they try to stay with the folk lore of japan. Over all this is a really fun adventure, that I can not wait to run.
I love this one so much. The trolls alone are worth the price, but heck toss the owl bear in and just solid gold. An amazing set of paper mini's I love crystal design
Our Price:
I was looking at how to get minis for my next AP found these wonderful mini's which sort of made the choice for me. I love them the detail is amazing. I really liked the canible the best and the undead pirates. Great value. I know I am going to be enjoying these a lot when my next game starts.

I ate dinner here recently on a business trip after having the restaurant recommended to me. This is a small and authentic Japanese restaurant that seats about 20 people. Service is excellent as is the food. The variety is large with an additional number of specials based on whatever seafood is fresh and available locally. Quality seems to be very high and I enjoyed everything. The fried tofu was great as an appetizer with a wonderful texture and flavor. The fish was plentiful and fresh. Everything is prepared individually so don't expect extreme speed, but do expect a very nice experience. Reservations are essentially mandatory - at least in the evening.

• Pinch cayenne pepper
• 2 tbsp. golden raisins
• 2 tbsp. chopped pitted green olives
• 1 tbsp. tomato paste
• 1/2 c. water
• Salt and pepper
For the matzo balls:
• 3 eggs
• 3 tbsp. vegetable oil
• 3 tbsp. chicken broth
• 3/4 c. matzo meal
• 1 1/2 tsp. salt
• Pepper
• Cinnamon, for dusting
To make filling: Spray a nonstick skillet with nonstick spray (or add 1/2 tablespoon oil) and heat over medium-high heat. Cook the ground turkey, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, until browned. Remove from pan and set aside.
Reduce heat to medium and add the olive oil. Cook onions, green onions and garlic for about 3 to 4 minutes, until softened. Add chili powder, oregano, cumin, cinnamon and cayenne pepper; cook for 1 minute more, until fragrant.
Return turkey to the pan, along with the raisins, olives, tomato paste and water. Add salt to taste. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for about 10 minutes, until thickened. Season to taste, if needed, with salt and pepper. Set aside to cool. This filling can be made a day or two in advance, if kept covered and refrigerated.
