- Two weeks after moving in, they are still adjusting to homeownership and plan to prepare the house for their daughter. Despite initial concerns about distance from friends, they are excited to host events and gatherings, including a baby shower in June.

Quick Glance: Santa Clara: The Swiftie Capital of the USA
- When Santa Clara ceremonially changed its name to Swiftie Clara last summer in honor of Taylor Swift’s record-breaking “The Eras Tour” coming to town, it was supposed to be a fun gesture for two nights only. But the moniker seems to have stuck, as new data suggests the Silicon Valley city is the nation’s Swiftie Capital.
- How did Santa Clara achieve this recognition? Through an analysis by Casino.org of the 20 cities visited by Swift on the 2023 U.S. leg of her tour, evaluating various metrics such as tour attendance, Google searches, TikTok posts, and Swift-themed events.
- Approximately 10,700 TikTok videos were recorded during Swift's concerts on July 28 and 29 in Santa Clara. One standout video shows Swift pointing to the crowd during the “Enchanted” musical interlude, with fireworks from Great America lighting up the background.
- Santa Clara Mayor Lisa Gillmor, who named Swift the honorary mayor, expressed pride in her city being the Swiftie Capital. The tour attracted around 137,000 fans, surpassing the city's population.

Buyers grab downtown San Jose condos in foreclosure auction with winning bids up to $32,300
mercurynews.com/2024/04/09/san-jose-real-estate-house-home-foreclose-auction-condo-economy-china/
Quick Glance: Buyers Secure San Jose Downtown Condos at Foreclosure Auction with Bids up to $32,300
- Potential buyers gathered for an auction to acquire ten condominiums in a residential building in downtown San Jose constructed by a developer facing challenges, despite legal processes aiming to postpone the foreclosure and sale.
- Following the delinquency of Z&L Properties in paying the HOA maintenance fees for the ten condominiums, the association for the dual-tower complex organized the auction.
- Despite the issuance of a temporary restraining order by Santa Clara County Superior Court Helen Williams on April 2, the auction activities continued outside the courthouse, leading to an unexpected and thrilling sequence of events.
- Z&L Properties has a 90-day window to reclaim ownership of the recently sold units if the outstanding fees, fines, and interests for each condominium are settled. Nevertheless, the purchasers of the nine units paid a remarkable fraction of the expected price for residential properties in a high-rise building in the Bay Area.

Quick Glance: Majority of Seattle-area Renters Report Significant Rent Increases in Past 12 Months

- Out of the estimated 658,000 individuals who experienced rent hikes, approximately 113,000 had a relatively minor increase of under $100. A significantly larger group - around 306,000 - saw their rent rise between $100 and $249 per month.

Quick Glance: Google terminates 28 employees after office occupation due to anti-Israel protests
- Google terminated 28 employees on Thursday who had occupied its offices to protest against contracts with the Israeli government, as confirmed by a Google spokesperson.
- The protesters were arrested and after refusing to leave the office of Google Cloud CEO Thomas Kurian in Sunnyvale or the workspace in New York City for nearly 10 hours, they were transferred to administrative positions to urge Google to terminate the Project Nimbus contract and cease business with the Israeli government.
- No Tech For Apartheid, a project by Jewish Voice for Peace and Linda Sarsour’s MPower Change, described the terminations as an "indiscriminate act of mass retaliation."
- The office occupations at Google were accompanied by demonstrations on-site and in Seattle, aiming to compel Google to withdraw from the project to establish cloud-based data centers and transition a significant portion of the Israeli government's IT infrastructure to cloud-based servers.

Quick Glance: Popular Brewery Closes: Is Downtown's Momentum at Risk?
- Shortly after celebrating its sixth anniversary, Camino Brewing Company in San Jose unexpectedly shut its doors due to inflation, slow pandemic recovery, and a failed funding plan.
- While Camino's closure is regrettable, it should not signal downtown's downfall. New openings and cultural additions have revitalized the area, yet concerns loom over other venues facing challenges.
- Office return rates lingering at 40% explain the mainly nighttime activities. Popular establishments like the San Jose Museum of Quilts and Textiles are struggling, highlighting the need for community support.
- The opening of Elyse and potential closures of other downtown gems emphasize the importance of patronizing and backing local businesses to preserve the cultural tapestry of the city.

‘You can have him.’ Why John Calipari’s exit from Kentucky is best for both parties.
kentucky.com/sports/spt-columns-blogs/john-clay/article287478925.html
Quick Glance: Arkansas Saves Kentucky and John Calipari
- John Calipari and Kentucky were on the brink of giving it one more shot. Arkansas saved them from themselves - and that's good for everyone.
- The relationship between the 65-year-old Hall of Fame coach and the elite program was not just dull but also burdensome. When athletic director Mitch Barnhart and Calipari sat for a local television interview last month to assure fans that they were on the same page and committed to getting the Wildcats back on top, it seemed more like a hostage video.
- Arkansas and its billionaire supporters unexpectedly intervened to recruit the coach nobody else pursued and offer him a compensation beyond what others could provide. Everyone benefits. Perhaps not the Razorbacks - time will tell - but certainly Calipari and Kentucky. He was in desperate need of a fresh start, as were the Wildcats. After failing to reach the second weekend of the NCAA Tournament for the fourth consecutive year, the individual who led Kentucky to seven Elite Eights, four Final Fours, and a national title in his initial decade came to a realization.
- This is not intended to diminish Calipari's past achievements at Kentucky. He revitalized the Cats, contributed to their national title, and kept UK in contention for a championship nearly every year during his remarkable first ten years. He served as a positive influence in the state, demonstrating his philanthropy in times of crisis. This is about recognizing that since 2020, Calipari was tarnishing this legacy. It's about acknowledging that both sides knew the journey had come to an end and it was time to step away. Just when it seemed that Calipari and Kentucky were considering another attempt, Arkansas intervened and rescued them from themselves.

latimes.com/california/story/2024-04-19/tiny-cupertino-home-is-selling-for-over-1-7-million
Quick Glance: Tiny Cupertino Home with Large Yard Sells for Over $1.7 Million
- A home in Cupertino, California, measuring less than 400 square feet is making headlines nationwide with a surprising asking price of over $1.7 million. The small one-bedroom, one-bathroom home is likened to a hotel room, too small for a regular refrigerator or stove in the kitchen.
- The property received eight offers, all above the asking price, with the winning bidder expected to close the deal in May. The bulk of the property's value, according to co-listing agent Perez, lies in the land, offering potential for expansions or new constructions.
- The home's location at the end of a cul-de-sac, near hiking trails and Silicon Valley's tech hubs, is crucial. Its proximity to the Los Altos Hills border, where property values start at an estimated $5 million, positively impacts surrounding communities. Cupertino city permits the owner to build a home exceeding 3,600 square feet.
- Originally used as a hunting cabin, the house was built brick by brick in the 1940s by the family currently selling it. While the final sale price remains undisclosed, it is confirmed to be selling for "considerably over asking."

Quick Glance: California: New Minimum Wage Impact on Fast Food Industry
- Most fast food workers in California will earn at least $20 per hour starting Monday, providing more financial stability to the profession and potentially raising prices in the high-cost state.
- The law was supported by the fast food franchise owners' trade association. However, many owners have expressed concerns about the law's impact on their businesses amid California's economic slowdown.
- California has doubled its minimum wage to $16 per hour over the last decade, with data showing increased wages and sustained employment levels.
- The law represents a negotiated compromise between the fast food industry and labor unions, applying to restaurants with limited table service and part of a national chain with at least 60 establishments.
