  4. An Assembly committee casts its vote for paperless tickets

    Digital technology gives consumers near-instant access to vast electronic libraries of music, movies and books, but it's also eroding their rights to personalize, reposition and dispose of their purchases as they see fit. You can't resell a used MP3, donate an e-book to the library or unload a downloaded movie file at a yard sale because media companies insist you have no ownership rights in those digital goods; you paid only for a license to use them, not for the items themselves.

  6. California's dairy dilemma

    Although the recession drove many businesses into bankruptcy, times have been particularly hard for the state's dairy farmers. Almost 400 California dairies have closed in the last five years &mdash; 105 in 2012 alone &mdash; plagued by soaring prices for feed and an antiquated regulatory system that keeps their prices artificially low, at least in the farmers' view. The right solution for the long term would be to scrap the current approach in favor of a market-based one, but there's little political will to take such a disruptive step. Instead, policymakers are debating ways to help dairymen at the expense of cheese makers &mdash; and their customers.
