Here’s a few new laws in California that are now in effect. Can’t say I’m in agreement with most of them.
AB 119 prevents insurance companies from charging different rates for men and women for identical coverage.
SB 782 prevents landlords from evicting tenants who are victims of domestic or sexual abuse or stalking.
AB 1844—informally known as Chelsea’s Law and authored by local Assemblyman Nathan Fletcher—will increase penalties, parole provisions and oversight of sex offenders, including a “one-strike, life-without-parole penalty” for some. 
AB 1871 allows people to lease out their cars when they are not being used—alleviating the need to purchase additional insurance.
AB 537 will make food stamps an acceptable form of payment at farmers markets through an EBT process.
SB 1411 makes it a misdemeanor to maliciously impersonate someone via a social media outlet or through e-mails.
SB 1317 allows the state to slap parents with a $2,000 fine if their K-8 child misses more than 10 percent of the school year without a valid excuse. It also allows the state to punish parents with up to a year in prison for the misdemeanor.
AB 715 makes a change to the California Green Building Standards code. The change will require new California buildings to be energy efficient.
SB 1449 makes the possession of one ounce of marijuana an infraction with a penalty of a $100 fine.
AB 12 allows foster youth to acquire state services until the age of 21.
SB 1399 allows California to medically parole state prison inmates with physical incapacitating conditions and ultimately shifts some of the cost of care to the federal government.
AB 97 bans the use of trans-fats in food facilities.

Let’s hope not! Happy New Year every body!

Problem. You need a big poster or sign. You have a color printer that can print on card stock, yet nothing bigger than legal size. Until this morning, I thought my only option was to go to a printer and shell out 50 bucks or more.

I found this cool little program that takes a large image, and makes a pdf with several sheets of paper. After printing, you trim and glue up the sheets to make your poster. There’s a tiny overlap, so if you’re careful, there won’t be hardly any white space in the seams.

If your poster can have a few seams, viola! You’ve saved some serious cash.

The program is call posterazor and can be downloaded here.

Disclaimer: I just started using this program today, so proceed with caution. If this program crashes your computer, don’t blame me.

These verses are featured in Handel’s Messiah
Isaiah 9:6 – For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.

Revelation 5:12 Saying with a loud voice, Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honour, and glory, and blessing.
