To read the original article about CBD for Panic Attacks at Real Tested CBD.Most people involved in the hemp industry have probably heard about CBD’s anti-anxiety effects. There are already a few randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trials that suggest CBD has a phenomenal impact on patients with social anxiety disorder. There’s also some evidence CBD could reduce night terrors in patients with PTSD.However, there’s not as much data regarding CBD’s effect on acute anxiety symptoms. For instance, could a high dose of CBD immediately reduce a panic attack? Does CBD help lessen the severity or frequency of this troubling issue?Although we don’t yet have a clear answer to these questions, a few Washington State researchers are interested in CBD’s relationship to acute anxiety. In fact, the Seattle-based Receptor Life Sciences just announced significant funding to analyze this issue.What Can We Expect From Receptor Life Sciences’ Upcoming CBD Trial?On April 7th, the new company Recept...Interim housing in San Jose might be cheap at first, but long-term costs could quickly surge

As homeless encampments continue to sprout around San Jose’s streets and waterways, city leaders are promising a rapid housing fix — over 1,000 interim units, supposedly at a bargain price.But a new estimate by the city’s budget director shows the long-term, ongoing costs associated with the strategy could start adding up quickly for San Jose.If the city completes its plan to add 1,439 interim housing beds, hotel rooms and safe parking sites, the ongoing expense could spiral upwards to about $60 million by 2030 — more than twice what it plans to spend on the effort next year.The ballooning costs come at a particularly difficult economic moment: State and federal funding for the city to combat homelessness could end up slowing down dramatically as pandemic relief fades and California faces a hazy financial future with a looming billion-dollar deficit. This potentially puts San Jose on the hook to shoulder millions of dollars in costs from its own coffers if it doesn’...Thousands of California families are still homeschooling their children.

Ifza Khan’s mornings don’t start with the school bell.Instead, the 11-year-old gets out of bed, walks downstairs and heads to her dining room table, where her mom, Arsala, leads Ifza and her two siblings in the day’s lessons. Some days they join 12 other families for a park meet-up or a field trip to a local museum. On other days, they’ll gather for in-person, à la carte lessons at different locations, which focus on everything from horseback riding to robotics engineering.For years, the Khans have been among thousands of California families homeschooling their children. But today, they’ve got much more company. Since the year before the pandemic shut down schools, the number of California kids being homeschooled has skyrocketed by 70% — and despite a return to in-person learning, many are not going back.“When you’re in public school, it’s almost like a death march: you’re going to go through this set of classes whether you like it or not,” said Leigh Cline o...Haas principal Steiner reprimanded, apologizes for calling race stewards ‘laymen’

MONTMELO, Spain (AP) — Haas team principal Guenther Steiner was reprimanded by the FIA on Sunday for calling the race stewards at last weekend’s Monaco Grand Prix “laymen” after he disagreed with their decision to penalize one of his drivers.The reprimand will not incur a penalty or fine.Steiner apologized to stewards in a meeting on Saturday. He made that apology public in a statement released by Haas on Sunday before the Spanish GP.Steiner attracted the attention of race officials when he said on Thursday: “F1 is one of the biggest sports in the world, and we still have laymen deciding on the fate of people who invest millions in their careers.”Steiner was angry about a penalty given to Haas driver Nico Hulkenberg at Monaco.On Sunday, he said that he had apologized to the stewards if his words had been “misunderstood.”“I had not intended to offend anyone and that my use of certain words could have been open to misinterpretation or misunderstood by some people,” he said.___More AP ...NBC: los trabajadores de la salud inmigrantes pueden enfrentar demandas de $100,000 por renunciar

WASHINGTON — Las enfermeras y otros trabajadores de la salud que han sido traídos a EEUU desde el extranjero para ocupar miles de puestos vacantes dicen que en algunos casos han estado sujetos a condiciones de trabajo inseguras, robo de salarios y amenazas de decenas de miles de dólares en deuda si renuncian o son despedidos.En entrevistas, más de una docena de trabajadores de la salud inmigrantes de todo el país describieron haber sido colocados en trabajos donde había tan poco personal que no podían satisfacer las necesidades básicas de los pacientes y temían por su seguridad física. También describieron que les pagaban menos que a sus contrapartes estadounidenses a pesar de las leyes de inmigración que exigen que se les pagara el salario prevaleciente local, que trabajaban horas extras no remuneradas y que les habían engañado sobre los beneficios, como alojamiento gratuito, que en un caso equivalía a una habitación vacante en la enfermería.Pero cuando los trabajadores intentaron ...DC-area students race electric vehicles at RFK Stadium for EV Grand Prix

The cheers were loud at RFK Stadium in D.C. on Saturday afternoon, but the engines? Not so much — and for good reason.High school students from across the D.C. region raced each other in the EV Grand Prix in what could appropriately be described as an electric atmosphere.“We give students who are in the field of STEM hands-on experience of what it’s like to build an EV,” said Pepco spokesperson William Ellis. “Hopefully, these students become the engineers and mechanics who might work for us in this field someday.”The electric company and the nonprofit Global EEE helped sponsor the event, which Ellis said was the culmination of an entire year’s worth of work.D.C.-area students built their cars from the ground up, and the sights and sounds of well-powered machines echoed throughout the paddock as cars zipped around the track — quietly.Despite the warm temperatures and the sun bearing down on spectators in the grandstand, many families came out bearing signs to...La guerra de Taiwán sería “devastadora”, advierte el Secretario de Defensa de EE.UU., Lloyd Austin, al criticar a China en la cumbre de seguridad de Shangri-La

(CNN) — Una guerra por Taiwán sería “devastadora” y afectaría a la economía mundial “de un modo que no podemos imaginar”, advirtió el secretario de Defensa de Estados Unidos, Lloyd Austin, al tiempo que subrayaba el apoyo de Estados Unidos a la democracia isleña.“El conflicto no es inminente ni inevitable. La disuasión es fuerte hoy en día; y es nuestro trabajo mantenerla así”, dijo Austin en declaraciones en la cumbre de seguridad del Diálogo de Shangri-La este sábado, a la que asisten representantes de decenas de países, incluida China.“El mundo entero tiene interés en mantener la paz y la estabilidad en el estrecho de Taiwán. La seguridad de las rutas marítimas comerciales y de las cadenas de suministro mundiales depende de ello. Y lo mismo ocurre con la libertad de navegación en todo el mundo.

El cambio climático sin duda ha causado estragos en lo que va del siglo XXI, y esto nos lleva a preguntarnos si esto ha tenido algo que ver con el potencial de destrucción del que hemos sido testigos con el paso de los huracanes Ian, María, Fiona, Katrina y otros sistemas devastadores.Científicos han dicho que si bien no se espera que el cambio climático aumente la cantidad de huracanes que azotan cada año, sí intensificará las tormentas que se forman.¿Pero cómo se da este proceso?Sigue toda la cobertura completa de la temporada de huracanes aquí.Todo empieza con los gases de efecto invernadero que atrapan el calor en la atmósfera.

MILWAUKEE (AP) — A school bus driver in Milwaukee safely evacuated 37 students from her bus just before it became engulfed in flames.The bus was just blocks from their destination at the Milwaukee Academy of Science Wednesday morning when Imunek Williams smelled something burning, WISN-TV reported.Williams had been driving the bus for two hours by then, and had kindergartners to high schoolers onboard. She initially thought the smell was coming from another vehicle.“But then as I started to drive more, the smell and the smoke started to get thicker,” she told the television station for a story Thursday.“I just told the kids, ‘Let’s get off,’” Williams said. “I evacuated the bus, made sure everyone was off, and made them line up against a gate. And as soon as we stepped off the bus, I turned around and the bus was just — in flames.”Firefighters put out the blaze and Williams, who is due to give birth in August, was taken to a hospital as a precaution.
