Eating sugar may fuel cravings for more by quieting stress

By Lisa Rapaport (Reuters Health) – Eating sugar may quiet stress signals in the brain, leading some people to seek comfort by consuming more sweets and making the habit very hard to break, a small study suggests. In a two-week experiment, 19 women drank three beverages a day sweetened either with r…

That is a picture of parking enforcement citing my car for interfering with their precious ability to sweep the street in front of my house. (omg notice how dirty the street was; it desperately needed sweeping)

That is also a picture of me with my car key in hand apologizing for sleeping in and offering to move my car. The dude (pretend officer) wouldn’t budge; I broke teh LAW!! so i must be fined.

Yes, that ever so precious law that no government employee or government official has ever broken accidentally or deliberately in the history of these united states.

“The Orange County city used a rate structure that charged customers who used small amounts of water a lower rate than customers who used larger amounts.”

“But the 4th District Court of Appeal struck down San Juan Capistrano’s fee plan, saying it violated voter-approved Proposition 218, which prohibits government agencies from charging more for a service than it costs to provide it.”

Which begs the question. How can such a scarce resource be so cheap to provide.

“Penalties aside, the court said that tiered water rates are legal as long as the government agency can show that each rate is tied to the cost of providing the water.”

Oh right, because government water doesn’t obey the laws of supply and demand and maintains a magically low cost of providing water.

“San Jose Water Company, which provides water to 1 million people, has tiered rates, but as a private company is not affected by Proposition 218.”

Hmmm, private company … Exactly.

A government can’t take away free services. It can only hand them out. Politicians want to keep their jobs. Private companies can’t be voted out of office.

Only mother nature, or water privatization can solve this problem.

California drought: Court rules tiered water rates violate state constitution

In a ruling with major implications for California’s water conservation efforts during the historic drought, a state appeals court on Monday ruled that a tiered water rate structure used by the city of San Juan Capistrano to encourage saving was unconstitutional. The stakes are high because at least…
