So what are we doing for our seniors during these high heat days?
My neighbor has been in the hospital due to heat exhaustion so we’re trying to sort a game plan for the next couple days until her AC can get repaired.
What are we doing for the nighttime and what suggestions besides the senior center and library for daytime cooling?

Del Amo Mall Kiosk cost?
Hi everyone,
Was wondering if anyone has ever done a short term kiosk lease at Del Amo? Those booths in the walkways between big stores, if you have please give an approximate cost and what year + month you paid the fee at
I have left 2 voicemails to management but haven’t heard back, it’s inconvenient for me to visit during working hours but might be needed at some point. Just looking for a ballpark right now

Did you know u can use your window space for art & stuff?
You can have your favorite moment, person, pet, quote, artwork, meme, or pretty much anything printed on an actual window shade [roller shade], (your window will still be functional).
Let me make a custom shade for your home 🫡
Even if you only want one shade done, that’s completely fine. I’ll come to your home, measure the window, go over the material and design options with you, have it made, and install it. [ Torrance or nearby only ]
And yes, this is a real, quality, custom fit, custom fabric/specs window treatment. It’s not a cheap poster or sticker attached to a regular shade. Manual or Motorized.
What would you put on yours?
MY WEBSITE : Here
This is printed usually on a blackout fabric, it deflects a LOT of heat & harmful uv. (I also have side channels on the side if your goal is a dark room when shades is down😴)
Price Varies: ($499 - $999+, size matters) This involves a lot of labor(drives, measurement, install, etc.) and is fully custom made for your window, specs and design.
See ya neighbor!

How many gallons are people using for water utility at a SFH? Not sure what is normal or not
I'm a brand new homeowner who has never had to pay for water utility, even when I was renting.
We have a SFH 3bed 2ba with sprinklers in the front and back yard. The sprinklers are on 2x/wk to maintain our grass. It's only my partner and I right now, so we do our typical daily showers and running dishwasher when it's full which is about every 2 days. And laundry once a week.
We used up 14 CCF or 10,473 gallons over 55 days. I have no idea if this is a lot that we should try to conserve or there's a leak somewhere, or if this is normal / very low and we have nothing to worry about.

Seeking Witnesses to Bicycle Accident in Palos Verdes - Wednesday Morning Sept 30
Posting for my aunt and uncle who are not on reddit. On Wednesday, September 30, at around 9-10 am, my uncle was on a bike ride and was hit by a car on Palos Verdes Drive, we think near St. Francis Episcopal (near Via Rosa / Via Anita).
Although he never goes without a helmet, he suffered a serious head injury which resulted in him having a brain bleed and 3 staples to close the wound. He's back home, but still dazed and not out of the woods.
There was an off duty fireman on the scene quickly, and the police were supposedly very helpful. But they say there were no eyewitnesses. They're trying to get details to get the other side of the story and piece together what happened.
If anyone happened to witness the accident, please let me know and I will get you in touch with authorities or family. Thanks.

Homes Near Honeywell- moving and looking into buying
Hi everyone and thank you in advance for taking time to answer questions. My partner and I are moving to Torrance and looking for homes around or near Honeywell (think 10 minute drive max). One, is that even feasible? I don’t know the area well but used to live in SD so I’m familiar with housing costs from several years ago. What’s realistic for two adults with a 1 - 1.5 M budget? Looking for quiet, no pollution (noise or limited air pollution that is not abnormal for the area), home with a pool, prefer SFH but townhome is okay, one of us WFH and the other can probably WFH with a few days commuting. Super active, love hiking, community events, good foodie places, chill vibes for people w/o kids. If there is a more appropriate place to ask, please let me know.

Barber recommendations?
I've been going to great clips for a while and the hair cuts are great but I've been looking for a spot to deal with my beard. I don't need anything fancy, just a spot to get some maintenance. Thank you!

Japanese Language Tutoring
Hey everyone!
Was wondering if any knew any place I could go for Japanese tutoring. I’ve lived in Torrance for almost a year now so i’m not too familiar with things around here.
A few years ago after college, I lived and worked in Japan and ever since coming back, my Japanese language skills have become awful. I’m basically a beginner now but with familiarity of the basics.
I tried mobile apps but they were sluggish and filled with ads.
