I think one thing that could help is to treat wage theft as a serious crime on the same level as bank robbery. Get cross-agency task forces and strike teams to arrest and prosecute the ringleaders and send them to decades-long prison sentences. Take the proceeds of their theft and use them to reimburse their victims with interest. -

Several years ago, I was in a hotel near there when an earthquake left hairline cracks in the walls.

#CA #EDD unemployment benefits must be quite a bit higher than some other states. (That $20K number must be over the entire claim and extension.)In conversation from nu.federati.net permalink Attachments

I don't know what the hiring process is like, but I imagine mom and dad will wuickly tell them to go work at McDonald's instead of waiting for the governmental hiring process to complete.

Very little orangish tint to the world and much brighter outside today. I think the wind direction has shifted, so that may be the main difference.
The El Dorado Fire was climbing some rugged parts of the San Bernardino mountains, so it seems unlikely they made that big of an advance in containing and extinguishing the fire. This fire is not far from where the Apple Fire burned last month. In the prior fire, the winds took most of the smoke away from this area.

Claims that #CA agriculture is water efficient. I call BS. In some parts of the state, you can drive past and see that they're using "flood" irrigation. Which can help replenish groundwater as well as increasing rainfall downwind, but isn't efficient at point of use.In conversation from nu.federati.net permalink Attachments

But 106F and humid (working in El Centro, #California, one year) and 96F and much more humid (working in #Mississippi one year) felt even worse. The awful thing about #MS was that the local people I worked with said it was the coolest Summer in thirty years, while I wondered how people could live there.

Inside temperature is 96F / 36C.
Slightly hotter than some parts of Sacramento #CA, but lower than Phoenix #AZ. Some clouds rolling in, so maybe we’ll have some overcast ... or maybe even a little rain.
We have not yet had the traditional August rainstorm. (Cools things off that day, but then the next day or two return to full heat, only now they have humidity that feels akin to parts of #LA or #MS.)In conversation from nu.federati.net permalink -

I attended California public schools. At that time, CA schools were 47th out of the 50 states. As a result, in times like this, I expect everyone who did not live in Mississippi to have received a better education than I did.
