Nothing A Quart Of Paint Stripper Couldn’t Fix
For the most part it’s a nicely restored Arts and Crafts home with "updated" baths. We only wish they hadn’t painted the woodwork in the bedrooms. Okay, and that there were another one of those baths. ∙ Listing: 53...

SF Parks Portal Baffling, and is Data Open?

San Francisco is soon to unveil a new website that tracks goings-on in public parks. If you're holding a public-park event, you can enter it into the website, and then (the thinking goes) users will browse around, find your details, and show up for your BBQ or whatever.

Going going Gone - $10k CA Tax Credit Used Up (with a caveat)
So for those of you who follow me on twitter you will have seen this last week.

Daly's Draconian Renters Relief Package Passes - Mayor veto coming
It's basically on Beven Dufty and Sophie Maxwell who does not have to vote for now...to make sure it does not end up in a veto-proof vote. I have no problem with certain aspects of rent control (although there's a decent argument that it hurts more than it helps) - but this measure weights all the burden, ...
