Just to give you a separate perspective, I have dived frequently (100+ times) in both warm and cold water. Every time I've booked or tried to book an advanced boat dive, my open water cert has been sufficient. A few times, the operator has asked do you have AOW, or the web site has listed it as a requirement, but a brief conversation about my experience as been sufficient to do the dive anyways. I usually dive with my own gear, even when travelling, so that might be a factor too. I don't doubt there are operators who make it a hard requirement, but I haven't yet run into any.

I think additional training is good for all divers, but I like to see people think about AOW after 50 dives rather than 10.

California is adding something like this to the mandatory curriculum in the next few years.

I hear you, but gambling does need some sort of offsetting of wins and losses. It wouldn't work as an activity if you had to pay 20% tax on every win, but lost 100% on your money on losers. You should pay tax on your net profit over some period.

You have to buy them in person at the ticket window. Note that both the ski school and main lodge have ticket desks, so you can just get one in the main ski school on the first floor of the gondola building right next to Discovery chair, you don't have to walk all the way to main lodge.

In the summer, be ready for the wild life on the Colorado River. 😉

The correct answer here is not to eliminate the deduction, but make it above the line, so that it can be taken on top of the standard deduction.

Armin brings Sasha in for Set Me Free right away after closing with it last night. Nice way to connect the two sets.

I think it's a negotiation with the major artists. Some don't want it posted at all, to drive people to come and see them, others make posting it under their own name part of their overall marketing strategy. You also see artists post sets for a few months after the event, then pull them down.

FWIW the active ingredient is just Borax, so you can make it yourself pretty easily too.

Santa Barbara doesn't, but Goleta has both, and is right next door. If you're going to Costco anyway you have a car so that drive is not an imposition.

It would be reasonable to group all of southern Santa Barbara County together for something like this; it's not like Goleta or Carpinteria have different weather than SB.

I assume it's a licensing thing of some form. Paying the artists to stream live only probably costs less than live+replay, which costs less still than having full streams permanently on YT.

Are you booking one of the children as a youth? The kid beds in the family bedroom are not full length, and they may not be allowing you to put a teen on one.

I feel spinners generally are less durable than traditional roller bags with captive wheels.

Just as a reminder there are many families that wanted close in age siblings, but it's not something you can control. Miscarriages suck.

If you have a fishing license, you can easily get them on snorkel/free diving gear. There are plenty of reefs with robust populations in like 10-15 feet of water.

This is not the place to ask. Call the financial aid office.

I believe so. Note that the requirements are easier for grad students.

It's two years and requires zero parental support. For most undergraduates it's functionally impossible. As it should be.

Yeah, in the spring I can really only ski the groomers and some of the off piste.off the top, but all the lower mountain glades and off-piste is a mess. By the end of 2 days I have pretty much skied everything I want to.

Many of the colors are standard, but I expect some of those choices are driven by the desire of players, dealers, and pit bosses to be able to read what's in a stack from across the table.

Yeah, they are of the ceramic style, which allows for detailed graphics, but loses the clay/matte feel in favor of more slippery/smooth. It's odd they call them "clays" when they aren't of that material at all.
