• School buses to run on waste grease from local restaurants. [SF Sentinel]
• 2007, as Chrissy from Newport Harbor: the Real OC might say, is "o-v-e, but the 'r' is not there yet." Totes, dude. Totes. [SFoodie, SFBG, CHOW, Gridskipper, Yelp]

• Tiger stuff. (An aside: Big-Cat Expert is perhaps the best job title in the world, ever.) [Examiner, SFBG]

Japantown's new Sundance Cinemas Kabuki will offer the more discerning moviegoer (i.e.. people who self-consciously laugh out loud during Shakespeare comedies) something, well, more. Curbed SF has the full rundown on the new movie house that's sure to make you feel even that more self-righteous than you already do while braving the choppy waters of independent film. Check it: more ›

We're trying to ease back into our regular SF Blotter posting schedule -- so we figured we'd start out easy: folks near the Towers building at Second and King had a bit of a scare last night, when at around 11 p.m., a guy started waving a gun around and saying he was going to shoot himself and anyone that came nearby. more ›

-- Built in 1911, the Tower Theater is up for sale. Again. [Curbed SF] more ›

The swell chaps over at Curbed SF have a poll going on about what to name the district that SFist brought to your attention yesterday. You need to vote, people! Rock it, as a matter of fact. Otherwise, TODO Magazine will get to christen each and every block of this city. more ›

The kids over at Curbed SF have the word on one polling place that's also an open house. Gross. Over in the enchanted Excelsior District, early morning voters have also been getting the hardcore sales pitch for a 6BR polling station that's going for $888,888. Not a bad price, btw, but still. Anyway, check it: "Went to vote this morning at 900 Persia Street in the lovely Excelsior District. Not only is it a... more ›

The Tenderloin Housing Clinic's properties may be among the worst places in the city to live -- but hey, at least it's cheap! Jeff, the proprietor of the Bluoz blog, recently posted a slew of eviction notices, going back several years; and man, it ain't pretty. Knives, fistfights, spitting, floods and fires, a cleaver, an abandoned dog, ripped-up smoke alarms, garbage-hoarders, broken limbs, choking with a telephone cable, stabbings, and (most shockingly) hateful comments all make an appearance. In other words, it makes for a read. Curbed SF calls it "Jerry Springer" meets "The Wire." more ›
