Swapping CBD For CBG- When Is CBG A Better Choice Than CBD Oil?

View the original article about When CBG Might Be A Better Choice Than CBD Oil at Real Tested CBD.CBD has the most clout in the hemp industry, but searches for “CBD alternatives” have increased. More customers in the hemp community are ready to try a variety of cannabinoids. Although delta-8 products are popular with those who want a psychedelic experience, there are also non-psychoactive hemp cannabinoids that are gaining ground on social media.For instance, more people are asking their local hemp shops whether they have any “CBG near me.” As we’ve covered in previous posts, CBG is a significant cannabinoid that’s the precursor to both CBD and THC. Since CBG-A transforms to other cannabinoids, only about 1 percent of CBG is in most hemp strains. However, now that demand for CBG products is going up, more hemp manufacturers are putting out CBG-rich oils, capsules, and tinctures.But why would anyone buy a CBG extract rather than CBD? Are there any significant differences between CBG ...How Mike Brown’s tactics have led the Kings to a 2-0 series lead over the Warriors, and created challenges for Steve Kerr

SAN FRANCISCO — Steve Kerr called it, and Wednesday afternoon his prediction was confirmed: Mike Brown, Kerr’s longtime assistant with the Warriors who took over as head coach of the Sacramento Kings this season, was named the NBA Coach of the Year.With 100 first-place votes from a panel of reporters and broadcasters, Brown became the first-ever unanimous winner.Wednesday, just before it was announced, Kerr sat at the podium at the Chase Center and said the Warriors need to make some adjustments against the Kings, who came into the series as heavy underdogs but now have a 2-0 series lead.The Warriors have been competitive in both games, but Brown’s tactical decisions have undoubtedly made an impact. Kerr acknowledged a handful.He talked Wednesday about how the Kings have done a good job blitzing Steph Curry and forcing him into questionable decisions, often hurrying the Warriors on offense.“The greatest basketball quote of all time is from John Wooden, ‘be quick but don’t hurr...Bay Area man accused of killing his missing wife faces preliminary hearing

By Jamiel Lynch | CNNA manhunt is underway near Charlotte, North Carolina, after a 6-year-old and her dad were seriously wounded when a neighbor reportedly began shooting after a basketball rolled into his yard — at least the fourth time this week an apparently ordinary blunder led to gun violence.Suspect Robert Louis Singletary, 24, should be considered armed and dangerous, Gaston County Police said. He’s 6-foot-2 and about 223 pounds, with brown eyes and black hair.Kids had been “playing basketball, and a ball had rolled down that way and had rolled into their yard and they went to go get it,” neighbor Jonathan Robertson told CNN affiliate WBTV.“We never expected anybody would break a gun out amongst all those kids,” he said. “I mean that was insane.”Police would not confirm what started the Tuesday night shooting in Gastonia, citing the investigation.It was another case this week alone in which young people were shot after seemingly...7 fantastic Bay Area things to do this weekend, April 21-23

By Stephanie Elam, CNNAfter one of the wettest winters on record, California hillsides are exploding with color. Swaths of yellow and streaks of orange, blue and purple paint the landscape this month as the state enjoys its extraordinary flurry of flowers.It’s the superbloom.Springtime road trips on California’s highways bring plenty of “oohs” and “ahhs” — not just from the spectacle of so much water in much fuller creeks, rivers and reservoirs, but also from the array of flowers putting on a show along the way.The Golden State is also a lot greener right now, too — landscapes are so verdant and lush it almost looks like a dreamscape.The wildflower takeover is dominating hillsides so intensely that the blooms are visible from space. Streaks of poppy orange and bright, lemony yellows can be seen in satellite imagery across canyons and hilltops that for years have been brown, barren areas, making the transformation that much more impress...Road trips go long way in helping new drivers get savvy behind the wheel: Roadshow

Q: One of your recent articles reminded me of the final stages of preparing my kids for their drivers’ license test. It included drives on narrow, winding roads that are heavily used by bicyclists. The goal was to teach patience and help them understand the amount of clearance needed to keep bicyclists and oncoming motorists safe.I used Wildcat Canyon Road and Pinehurst Roads in Contra Costa County for my daughter. My son got a longer test via Mines Road and State Route 130 to the Lick Observatory. After visiting the observatory, he fell asleep for the ride home!Don MahoneyA: How did some of the rest of you help your new drivers become road savvy, adaptable to different driving conditions?When Matt-the-Roadshow-Son needed to get a long drive in soon before he took the driving test, Mrs. Roadshow had him drive on a trip to Muir Woods. This also gave him the experience of driving over the Golden Gate Bridge. He, too, was ready to ride on the drive home.Q: Your scolding of state ...Review: ‘Poor Yella Rednecks’ a delightfully rambunctious immigrants’ tale
Published Sat, 23 Nov 2024 17:01:04 GMT
A badass rock ’n’ roll vibe made “Vietgone” a rollicking ride into the Vietnamese immigrant experience. Now playwright Qui Nguyen revisits the main characters, his parents, in a rambunctious sequel “Poor Yella Rednecks,” in its regional premiere at American Conservatory Theater.A cheeky sensibility, the unbridled marriage of slow-mo kung-fu, elegant puppetry, and retro-rap (music by Shammy Dee), makes Nguyen’s autobiographical odyssey so tart and refreshing. While all of the hip-hop elements don’t quite flow from the action as well as they should, undercutting our emotional connection with the tumultuous love story of Tong (Jenny Nguyen Nelson) and Quang (Hyunmin Rhee), few playwrights have as much breezy fun with issues of culture, language and identity.Tong and Quang certainly do not fit keep-your-head-down Asian parent tropes. These two swagger. They lust. They curse. They trade barbs like “Is that made outta beaver? ’Cause dayum.” They also struggle with strained commitmen...The Oakland A's purchase land for new stadium in Vegas
