The city’s average price for a gallon of regular reached $4 on Saturday, according to the AAA of Northern California auto club. The average had been hovering pennies below that for about a week. 49: Percent of California’s children between 12 and 17 who have at least one immigrant parent, a phenomenon that could dramatically change the composition of the state’s electorate within several years, according to a report released Tuesday.
