An ancient (and, of course, alleged) shot of our favorite graduate of Standford Business School cum First Lady of San Francisco necking with Dr. Doug Ross, circa 2002. The two of them, it seems, used to date. Aw. Aside from being "chased on foot by a crocodile, lion and elephant while living in Botswana," has anything bad ever happened to Siebel? No? Just checking. Update: It seems Jennifer did suffer a family tragedy at......

Oh Lord. Is this for real? From the SFist inbox this morning we received alarming news that Gavin Newsom and Jennifer Siebel, like, totally hate Africans, or something like that. After the New Year's Eve announcement that the two were to enter holy matrimony, one concerned reader called "Mayor Newsom's Communication Office," wondering if the "rock he bought for his fiancee was not a blood diamond." After talking to an "incompetent" Newsom staff member......

As it gets closer to Halloween for LAist, a contributer recollects her tale of staring down the serial killer, Richard Ramirez, otherwise known as the Night Stalker. Must think happy thoughts -- okay, free organic chocolate chip cookies for Los Angeles -- now that's a happy thought. Other happy Los Angeles thoughts include an interview with Jack Kehler of The Big Lebowski (he was the Dude's landlord), a beautiful and magical photographic moment in Venice......

Destination Turk Street in the TL, our First Lady Maria Shriver is coming to town to celebrate Family Day ("a day to eat dinner with your children"), and in part for "It About WE", some sort of it-takes-a-village altruism awareness program designed "to make [charity] service fun, rewarding and accessible." ...

--> Our favorite Fox News anchor, Kimberly Guilfoyle, worked the runway for the Heart Truth Red Dress Collection, at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week in New York. The fashion show raised awareness for heart disease in women, which Kim says took the lives of both of her grandmothers. So why didn't we know about this? The fashion show happened on February 2, so we were probably too busy with SFistGate and TourkGate to notice. Good to......

As reported, Jennifer Siebel sported a weird houndstooth coat at the Second Fake Question Time. At first glance, we figured that maybe the coat wasn't so bad. We love us some houndstooth. However, closer examination confirmed that, yes, Ms. Siebel made a fashion misstep. But who hasn't, right? ...

As the world holds it's breath, teetering precariously on the cusp of the Superbowl (well, at least in America), the wheels of the -ists keep on turning. Austinist was in a musical frame of mind as they listened to the new Shins album, updated the SXSW band listings and got called "punk rock" for their efforts by MTV. And an ice storm swept through the area. Bostonist said goodbye to John Kerry's plans for......

Well, Eminem is back with his on-again off-again Kim, but SF's sporadic First Lady's now not only on the outs with Gavin but now also with her employer, Court TV. Matier and Ross report that Ms.-Guilfoyle-if-you're-nasty has announced that she's going to be taking a job with FOX News, hosting a weekend law/crime show called "The Lineup." Kimbers coyly refused to say anything mean about her new channel, but you gotta wonder if new co-worker-to-be......

If you're wondering why there is a guerilla theater performance going on during your ride to work on the 14 Mission tomorrow, it's because the Central City SRO Collabortive under the auspices of the Tenderloin Housing Clinic will be staging direct-action protests on busses during the morning commute to galvanize MUNI riders and hopefully encourage folks to press the Board of Supervisors to amend the MTA's proposed budget. From the press release: On Thursday,......

See Arnold Run, the biopic of our Governator (we never get tired of it) that debuted tonight on A&E is like a high school production of A&E's standard-bearer Biography series put on by the wrestling team....

SFist says that if you don't get books from our local bookstores or use the reserve system from the San Francisco Public Library, you should rethink many of your life choices. But that's just us. SFist Emily is reading Work and Authority and Industry by Reinhard Bendix. This lighthearted stroll though the evolution of employer/employee relations beginning in pre industrial England, America and Russia through the 1950's is sure to inspire revolution for cubicle dwellers......
