A couple of interesting items out of Canada today. Canadians are now eligible for tax credits for medical marijuana expenses and bringing new meaning to the concept of appetite enhancement, the owner and chef of a fine-dining restaurant was arrested for maintaining a very sophisticated grow-op on the top three floors of the establishment.

It appears to have been a good cover, as neighbors expressed amazement at the operation. No one, including the patrons had a clue. One suspects that they got caught by their power consumption. Despite generating their own electricity from hydroturbines that were an original part of the mill building, they apparently were also drawing large amounts of power from the public grid.

You would think someone smart enough to figure out how to set up a grow this automated would have thought of that.
