Here's some interesting news:

In the midst of the second-worst drought in Texas history, towns across the state are going to extreme measures to cope, capping residential water use, and limiting the number of days households can water their lawns. Earlier this week, the West Texas town of Kemp ran out of water. In Big Spring, the local water district is building a plant to recycle treated wastewater back into the drinking supply.

But oil and gas producers are injecting millions of gallons of freshwater into the ground at a time, with hydraulic fracturing jobs in every corner of the state, from once-abandoned oil fields in West Texas to the South Texas boom towns of the Eagle Ford Shale.

Even while downplaying risks of water contamination, industry officials have said the state’s water shortage could choke Texas’ growing natural gas industry, and some operators have begun preparing for tighter regulation of their water usage.

But with a patchwork of state agencies and local water conservation districts responsible for Texas’ water use — and state laws that exempt much of the oil and gas industry — it’s a mystery just how much water is being pumped into the ground for hydrofracking, or how the state could limit industry’s water use.

Really?!?! From their web site:

The Bureau of Security and Investigative Services (BSIS) protects consumers by licensing and regulating the following industries:

Alarm Company Operator & Alarm Company Employees
Locksmith Companies & Locksmith Company Employees
Private Investigators
Private Patrol Operators & Security Guards
Proprietary Private Security Officer & Employer
Repossessor Agencies & Repossessor Agency Employees
Training Facilities & Training Instructors

As part of its mission, the Bureau actively investigates complaints against its licensees and works to punish unlicensed business operations. This includes the suspension and revocation of licenses and seeking administrative, criminal, and civil sanctions against violators. Undercover sting and sweep operations are conducted on an ongoing basis throughout all of California.


How does a state organization tasked with licensing and regulating the above businesses get involved with an employer/employee dispute about dress codes? Inquiring minds want to know.

I live in Midland (about 45 minutes from Big Spring) and the water situation here is dire. We are only allowed to water our lawns 2 days a week from 6pm till 6am (though I don't know why the hell anyone is concerned with a green lawn at this point), and all the water tastes like dirt because the water levels have gotten so low. We can't drink or cook with our tap water and when we shower, the whole house smells like a mud puddle.

My husband works for Big Oil (as an IT guy) as does my mom (as a geo tech), so I see both sides of this issue. Do we need to conserve water before we run out? Absolutely! Do we need to shut down drilling so that tens of thousands of people suddenly find themselves without a job? Probably not.

I believe our friend has failed to properly follow the thread hierarchies and provided an improper response to your message, thinking it was directed at him and not the Cast Member with the costume-related problem.

I know that is a pretty vague question, but I don't remember the details, just some of the peripherals.

That kind of disappeared from sight. Anyone know?
I saw a lady wearing something similar in Imagination's gift shop in Epcot. :confused:
