Dear users - the Service is down (May 2023)
Elon Musk bought Twitter and decided to drop free API access (supposedly to deal with bots)We are interrupting this service until as the charged amounts presently being asked do not make business sense
JumboTweet is a free service, and we believe that all the data powering Twitter that is user generated should be freely available to users.
This highlights the necessity to preserve free access across time user's access to their data.
Sometimes, bigger is better

Maybe there are limits to the Bay Area housing boom? Gov. Jerry Brown and his wife, Anne Gust Brown, just took a $50,000 loss on the sale of their home in Oakland.
--San Francisco Chronicle
There’s a new dynamic emerging in downtown Los Angeles’ rental market: Some landlords are trying to entice tenants with free rent and parking. In the last 18 months, 3,700 apartments have opened in downtown and 6,260 more are in the works. When the apartments are finished, they’ll represent a 15% boost in downtown housing units. “Landlords don’t have the leeway to push rents as they did in the past,” said Steve Basham, senior market analyst with CoStar Group Inc.

California government and politics news.
Here's what we're watching:
Proponents of a ballot measure to legalize the recreational use of marijuana in California have filed suit in a Sacramento County court alleging opponents of the initiative have made "false and/or misleading statements."
California could become the first in the nation to implement lane-sharing guidelines after the Assembly passed a bill to formalize rules for motorcyclists.
State Senate leader Kevin de León said Wednesday that he isn't yet sold on Gov. Jerry Brown's plan for a regional electric grid or a proposition to legalize recreational use of marijuana in the state.
State lawmakers were warned Wednesday that California's 911 emergency services system is running out of money.
Assemblyman David Hadley (R-Manhattan Beach) says he won't vote for Trump or Clinton, and Lancaster Rep. Steve Knight's congressional challenger has called for the Republican to denounce the GOP presidential candidate. Knight later called Trump's comments about the family of a Muslim American soldier "deplorable."

Torah Study
Tammuz 29, 5776 · August 4, 2016
Jews are known as bright people. In fact, we've been a people of books and wisdom for 4,000 years. Which makes for a lot of books and wisdom.
What kind of wisdom?
Well, there's the basic what-to-do-and-what-not-to-do stuff.
Then there's the stories and legends.
And there's the real deep what-is-life-all-about wisdom, including the secrets of the Kabbalah and Chassidic masters. It's all there waiting for you.
In fact, it's your personal heritage.
It's called Torah.
Torah shares the same etymology as the Hebrew word orah, "light"—its teachings shine a light on life and show you which way to go. And its study is a mitzvah—actually, the greatest mitzvah we have.
When:
"You shall teach [it] to your children and speak its words when you sit in your house, when you walk on the way, when you lie down and when you rise"—Deuteronomy.
Its study is a mitzvah—actually, the greatest mitzvah we have.
A Jew is always studying Torah—24/7/365. We take breaks to eat, sleep, pray, make a living and reenergize. The remainder of the time we connect to G‑d through studying His wisdom.
The minimum requirement is that you fix some time for study once a day and once a night. Can't devote as much time as you'd like? Support a yeshivah and be a partner in their study.
Who:
The rich and the poor, healthy and sick, old and young, smart or dim. Torah is every Jew's personal heritage.
What:
"It is not your job to finish the task, but neither are you free to absolve yourself from it..."—Ethics.
Start with the rules that impact daily life, Shabbat, holidays, etc. And then keep on learning; there's more than enough material to last several lifetimes.
Articulate the words you study. Allow the holiness to impact and refine your body.
How:
