The city of San Marcos is limiting how many students can live together in one house.
On August 7, the council put into effect a housing ordinance that says one single family house can have no more than four leases.
The ordinance, which has been in the works for some time, was originally dismissed but problems between residents and students required a solution city council members believe they have found.

I was one of the 3 million people who signed up to learn who Sen. Barack Obama had selected as his vice-presidential candidate. So when I opened my e-mail Saturday morning, I am sure I wasn't the only one struck with profound disappointment, and even more certain I wasn't the only dumbfounded person asking, "What?"
His choice: Sen. Joe Biden of Delaware.

On Saturday, Aug. 16, I woke up early to go to the Department of Motor Vehicles to file a change of address form, because the DMV is usually open the third Saturday of every month. To my surprise, however, the DMV was closed, but it was not deserted. There was a group of protesters outside: the Service Employees International Union 1000. This is because Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger has decided that, when it comes to state employees at least, laws about silly little things such as unemployment and wages don't really matter that much.

If you want a free plane ticket and a free pass on any customs laws you've broken, and you're an illegal immigrant, you're in luck.
Last Tuesday, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement began a new pilot program that allows immigrants without proper documentation to leave the country voluntarily, without being charged with a crime. Officials won't ask any questions, and will even cover the plane ticket back to the country of origin.
