Cannabis and the law in Australia

...This morning I lookup the law govern cannabis usage in Australia, because I am interested in growing one for personal use. Found the following info from NCPIC detailing variation in each state:

ACT - Possession of up to 25 grams or 1 plant, is not a criminal offence but carries a $100 fine.

NSW - Possession is criminal, but with less than 15 grams, offenders can receive up to two cautions.

VIC - Possession is criminal, but with less than 50 grams, offenders can receive up to two cautions.

QLD - Possession is criminal, but with less than 50 grams, offenders can receive only one caution.

WA - Government plans to decriminalise possession of up to 30 grams or one plant, but $200 fines will apply. First-time offenders are now cautioned.

SA - Possession by adults of not more than 100 grams is not criminal but carries fines of up to $150.

NT - Possession by adults of up to 50 grams or 1 plant is not criminal, but carries a fine of $100.

TAS - Possession is criminal, but offenders with less than 50 grams may be cautioned.
Look like it still illegal to grow even 1 plant where I live! I guess I have to work around it :)

Colour selection #1

...Choosing accessories for the house. Everything from the shade of paint to the front door style.

The core principles in my selection process are sustainable living, energy efficiency, water efficiency and functional.

I'm predicting the cost of energy will be doubled in the next three years. Afterall, I played a part in the project that enabled Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) in Australia.

According to the Australian Government and the design and construction industries the top three household energy elephant are heating and cooling, water heating and elettical appliances.
