View the original article about What A “Good Price” Is For CBD Oil at Real Tested CBD.Since CBD has only been available since 2018, it’s pretty difficult to gauge its “average market price.” We simply don’t have enough historical data to understand what a fair price for CBD should be. Also, farmers have just begun cultivating hemp flowers, yet the demand for CBD remains incredibly high. The disconnect between supply-and-demand has weighed heavily on CBD’s higher price tag in the past few years.Although it’s difficult to say what CBD oil’s “fair value” should be, we have enough data to suggest an average price range for CBD supplements. Hopefully, the data in this post will help you better understand whether your CBD oil is a “good bargain.”How Much Should People Expect To Pay On CBD Oil?When customers evaluate the value of a CBD supplement, they try to figure out how much one milligram of CBD costs. Generally, anything under $0.10 per mg of CBD could be considered a “cheap rate.” Pr...

Latest line: A good week for Cindy Chavez, a bad week for Lassen County

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 11:03:05 GMT

Cindy ChavezAfter losing the race for San Jose mayor last fall and facing term limits next year, the Santa Clara County supervisor is reportedly a front-runner for county administrative officer in San Diego, a job that would double her salary.   Lassen CountyRural county in northeastern California sees a 6% drop in population from 2021 to 2022, according to the U.S. Census, the largest of any county in the state, due to young people leaving, a prison closing and old people dying.   Public schoolsStatewide K-12 enrollment fell by 40,000 students this year, increasing the risk of teacher layoffs and schools closing. But that’s less than the drop of 110,000 students in 2021 and 160,000 in 2020, when COVID was raging.

Bars are the backdrop for this College of San Mateo satellite classroom. There are no iPhones, backpacks or opportunities for side talk.All eyes are on the instructor’s face, projecting charisma from a life-size image broadcast on the classroom’s whiteboard. Psychologist Shani Robins, who also teaches psychology at Stanford University, Foothill College and Santa Clara University, is leading a deep discussion on the nuances of anxiety when a hand pops up.“I have a question, Shani,” asked the student, whose hand remained raised for most of the class. “Was teaching hard at the beginning? Was there social anxiety?”“A little bit, but that goes away pretty quickly,” Robins answered,  “and whenever you experience anxiety it’s what…?”“An opportunity to practice!” the class shouted in unison.On this day, the thought-provoking, free-flowing class discussion will bounce from Seinfeld to stage fright to the properties of gravity.

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 11:03:05 GMT

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — For the second straight outing, A’s rookie pitcher Shintaro Fujinami was nearly flawless for the first couple of innings.For the second straight time, though, he quickly ran into trouble that led to a lopsided Oakland defeat.On Saturday, Fujinami took a no-hitter into the fourth inning before things fell apart as Tampa Bay scored five runs off him on its way to an 11-0 victory.In roughing up Fujinami, the Rays (8-0) extended Major League Baseball’s best start in 20 years behind Jeffrey Springs’ seven innings of three-hit ball and Randy Arozarena’s four RBIs.Fujinami (0-2) allowed five runs, three hits, four walks and hit a batter over 4 1/3 innings in his second major league start. The right-hander didn’t allow a hit until Wander Franco’s infield single with one out in the fourth.Related ArticlesOakland Athletics | Streaking Rays chase Waldichuk, make Athletics their latest victim Oakland Athletics | ...

H-1B court ruling: Work-ban cloud lifts for Bay Area spouses after years of fear

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 11:03:05 GMT

A recent court ruling upholding the employment rights of Bay Area residents who hold a special visa for spouses of skilled foreign workers has relieved long-standing uncertainty aggravated by the pandemic and the Trump administration.Late last month, a federal court judge threw out a lawsuit that sought to strip work authorization from an estimated 90,000 visa holders. These H-4 visa holders, the spouses of those with H-1B work visas, are mostly women from India, with a large contingent in the Bay Area.“When this case was going on,” said Pratima Joglekar, an assistant in an immigration-law firm, who lives in Fremont, “it was like a cloud hanging over our heads.”That cloud, with its potential to dramatically disrupt lives and careers, also gave employers pause, visa holders said, and the end of the court case has increased H-4 workers’ employability and added a measure of certainty for companies that invest in hiring and training them.Since 2015, shortly...
