We are deeply, deeply regretful that the cityblog format had not been launched back in 2001 and 2002, when we were totally obsessed with the Diane Whipple dog mauling case. For those of you not here at the time, that was the case where a rugby lacrosse coach was killed by two fighting dogs kept as pets in a Pacific Heights apartment by two really loopy local lawyers, Robert Noel and Marjorie Knoller -- and......

A very sincere thank you to the reader who forwarded along this picture of former Mrs. Gavin Newsom Kimberly Guilfoyle with her baby boy Ronan Anthony Villency. All together: awwwwwww! And this got us thinking: what's going on with the rest of Gavin's squeezes these days? Here's the results of our Google searching! Sofia Milos: The Scientologist girlfriend! Sofia (watch out, the site plays execrable music when you load it up) was recently spotted at......

--> Kimberly Guilfoyle and Eric Villency on the runway at the Dressed to Kilt fashion show in New York. Wow, this is really tragic. But these two are so unnaturally perfect, and scarily equal in their quest for fame and self-promotion, that we'll give them a pass. Plus, we just saw some chick on the street wearing a pair of pants in a similar tartan, and she looked pretty fierce. PS: Is it just......

As entertaining as the Gavin years have been, SFist always kind of wished they were around for the Dog Mauling case, you know the one where a couple of Presa Canario dogs killed Diane Whipple in the hallway of the apartment complex they all lived in. Now that was a trial-- there was the creepy couple who owned the dogs (Marjorie Knoller and her husband Robert Noel), their prison pen pal and Nazi skinhead Paul "Cornfed" Schneider who they also adopted, the lawyer who got on all fours and pretended she was a dog, and rumors of all sorts of nasty pornographic pictures involving Knoller and the dogs. Oh, and how could we forget the fact that one of the lawyers on the case was a then unknown Kimberly Guilfoyle. Now that, my friends, was good times. ...

Kimberly Guilfoyle and her mocialite husband, Eric Villency, at the Michael Kors Fall 2007 fashion show. Who do you think is wearing more makeup?...

--> 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......

Gavin, Schmavin -- bored now. Call us when a shorn-headed Gavin goes bananas outside Kimberly Guilfoyle's house and starts whacking an SUV with a bright-green umbrella! (Maybe Britney was just looking a little too much forward to a drink at the end of her workday as well.) Anyhow, since everyone insists on continuing not to run for mayor against Gavin Newsom (including us, though that's very sweet of you to suggest it, Jill and......

As promised -- when we find people defending Newsom, we diligently write 'em up in the column we call.... Who's Defending Newsom Now! Who's swinging for the mayor? --The mayor himself!: Before heading out to Switzerland this week, Gavin sat down with the gay-focused Bay Area Reporter (picture features a blue tie) for a chat about what's going on with him. Beyond the now-standard complaint that the Chronicle is out to get him, Gavin also......

So yes, we have a predilection for hitting up Fox News occasionally. We like to look at it as testing our mental fortitude, a way to see how far we could go before our blood pressure rises to the point we have to throw things. Somehow, this weekend we missed Matt Gonzalez appearing on Fox's "The Lineup" to talk about the Yale Choral Group story (Yalegate? Doughgate? Choirgate?). Oh, and your host of the Lineup? The former Mrs. Gavin Newsom, Kimberly Guilfoyle. ...

As we've mentioned, better watch this clip (or upload it to YouTube) before ABC 7 takes it down -- media hound Dan Noyes from the "I Team" (we think the I stands for "investigation") works his magic on Gavin Newsom yet again! The interview is ostensibly about the Yale a capella singer situation, but the fun really starts around 3:30, when Dan asks Gavin to comment about the stories going around town about his excessive......

It's the annual Best Of post, the one post in the year where I get to use the first person singular! Hooray! From the Starbucks (not really a) bomber in January to the opening of the Daiso in December, it was certainly one heck of a year, wasn't it? There was BUSH TER DOWN; the Chron's series about police brutality getting upstaged by their misidentification of the cop in question; Kimberly Guilfoyle's new boyfriend,......

The polls are closed on our Vote For Your Favorite Gavin Newsom Date election and the votes are counted! And your winner, by a commanding lead, is..... BRITTANIE MOUNTZ! Your results are in pie graph form above -- but if you can't read the names and numbers in those little wedges, here they are in legible form: --Brittanie Mountz -- 68.3% --Sofia Milos -- 10.5% --Erin Brodie -- 9.4% --Kimberly Guilfoyle Newsom Villency -- 6.1%......

....for your favorite Gavin date! As you'll see, Brittanie Mountz has a commanding lead (perhaps with some assistance from her sorority?), but that shouldn't discourage you from sounding off with your opinion either! Links to (at least some) of our coverage on these women here. We'll tell you right now we voted for Kimberly: 'cuz she's the OG -- the Original Gavin-Girl. No one does it better! Who's Your Favorite Gavin Date?Kimberly Guilfoyle Newsom VillencySofia......

It's been awfully quiet on the Gavin Newsom dating front, hasn't it? Well, if our mayor won't create gossip for us, we'll have to do it ourselves! So we're announcing the official Favorite Gavin Newsom Date poll! Whom did you like the best? Was it loose cannon Kimberly Guilfoyle -- or maybe you preferred the devoted Scientologist Sofia Milos? What about barely-legal Brittanie Mountz, or the current (for now) and fully-legal Jennifer Siebel? Or maybe......

As if you had any doubts about the veracity of our tipsters! Page 6 of the New York Post is confirming that Kimberly Guilfoyle and Eric Villency's son Ronan Anthony Villency was born on October 4 (just like our tipsters said) at 4:14 a.m., 7 pounds 9 ounces. Also, Moby is biking to a public transportation press conference tomorrow in Manhattan. They've got everything covered over there on Page 6! Fans of the Newsom category......

It keeps the post office busy -- the District 6 election! This week's episode: Everybody Hates A Spending Cap. A few days ago (before the Great Gavin Gel Goohaha), we were minding our own business, trying to find official word on whether Kimberly Guilfoyle had her baby yet, when we got a breathless email in the ol' inbox, in all caps, that said: "ROB BLACK TO MAKE ANNOUNCEMENT ABOUT CHRIS DALY'S ILLEGAL CAMPAIGNING. Announcement at......

Congratulations to Supervisor Bevan Dufty and his opposite-sex gay partner Rebecca Goldfader, on the birth of their daughter Sidney Maely Goldfader-Dufty on Monday! (You may remember that Dufty and Goldfader are both gay and continue to see same-sex partners, but have decided to co-parent Sydney together.) Just two days before Kimberly Guilfoyle! Sidney's 6 pounds 9 ounces, the family is doing well, and Bay Guardian political editor Steven T. Jones had no involvement in the......

Baby Zoolander's finally here! Tipsters tell us that Kimberly Guilfoyle and Eric Villency had their baby boy Ronan today. Not too many details, except that the birth sounded difficult -- but everyone is fine and resting comfortably now. We're on the prowl for more information. Congrats, Kim and Eric from all of us in what we understand is Kim's town! Ronan shares a birthday with: Charlton Heston, Stuttering John from the Howard Stern show, Susan......

We have it on good authority that Kimberly Guilfoyle is in labor even as we speak. Even as we speak! We were so eager to get this post up that we're recycling our old Us Weekly style picture of Kim only five months pregnant, rather than hunting down a new one. Our tipster also reports that Kimberly is trying to go natural -- so it'll probably be another 36 hours or so before we can......

SFist Krissy's weekly music review column's not only indispensable for the latest indie rock goings-on around town and those must-hear .mp3s, but also hosts some cool-looking art too. Ratatat! In news, North Beach cracks down on public drunkenness, as the mayor imposes a citywide curfew on kids under 13. Hope that doesn't cut in on his dating life. We've got your hot athletic action too -- SFist sports editor Jon debuts our daily wrapup of......

Ha! We finally out-Googled everyone's favorite Newsom watcher, commenter ThatChick! Check out this picture we found of perennial SFist favorite, Kimberly Guilfoyle Newsom Villency and her incipient child (due in about 2 weeks), from Monday the 11th at the Marc Jacobs show for Fashion Week. We'd've tried to get a larger version of the picture for you, but now we fear we may have accidentally downloaded this unsecured picture off a secure site, like an......

There is not nearly enough coverage of Kimberly Guilfoyle and new husband Eric Villency's muffin in the oven. We've been looking all afternoon and these are the only pictures we can find. They're like two weeks old by now! You can find some more pictures from the same day here, captioned "Kimberly Guilfoyle and husband Eric Villency Sighting in Soho After Lunching at Bar Pitti Restaurant -- July 16, 2006." There's also a Manhattan Society......

We're so pleased with ourselves for coming up with this other Us-Weekly-style tagline for Kimberly Guilfoyle's bump-belly watch! Baby splashdown date around September. Ladies (and gents), if you want to land Baby Boy Guilfoyle-Villency, better get started now -- SFist Rain's got week 2 of your How To Get The Guy tips. But don't get too excited to plan that bachelor/ette party just yet -- there is now no sex in the city's champagne rooms.......

A super-duper tipster forwarded this pic of our city's enciente expatriate, Kimberly Guilfoyle Newsom Villency. (Your fun-loving Us Magazine readers at the 'Fist added the arrow and message our very own selves!) Wrap up your little blue "I Left My Ex in San Francisco" onesies to send over for the baby shower.......

Bravely risking horrifying pregnancy and/or breast-feeding remarks from multinymous Commenter Matt/Brunhilda/Saul, we'll report that the Guilfency nuptials may be of the shotgun variety, as Kim's five months pregnant with a son! According to Page Six, Kimberly Guilfoyle and Eric Villency actually got engaged "at the end of last year, but (Kim) kept it secret until her divorce from San Francisco Mayor Gavin Newsom became final." We'd given up on trying to find a registry......

Those of you who read this site regularly probably think you have a good sense of what this particular correspondent is interested in -- traffic, Chris Daly, heartwarming tales about animals, general schadenfreunde. But we have a shameful confession to make. No, it's not that we secretly love/hate Gavin Newsom. No, it's not that we secretly love/hate Matt Gonzalez. We are totally following the Susan Polk trial. It's embarrassing! We never got into the OJ......

A very enthusiastic "HER MOTHER AND I DO!" of support to the genius tipster who passed along the Exclusive Details about the impending Kimberly Guilfoyle-Eric Villency (hereinafter, "the Guilfency") Memorial Day nuptials in Barbados, from Fashion Week Daily! Eric proposed with a 5.2 carat Asscher-cut diamond (huh huh, you said "ass"), which, for those of you in the know, is exactly the same size and shape as Kate Hudson's. Ooh, goody! The big day is......

Dum-dum-da-DUM, dum-dum-DA-dum..... -- that's right! SF's own J.Lo, Kimberly Guilfoyle avant Newsom, has announced that she's getting married in Barbados on Memorial Day, in three weeks! Who's the lucky mayor TV personality? Eric Villency, who hosts the TV show iDesign, a decorating show on the Fine Living network. Okay, Sofia Milos is kind of a C-list celebrity, but no doubt that CSI: Miami outranks cable channel 182. We've been looking around for their wedding registries......

When the Chron bites, it bites down hard -- check out today's editorial about Gavin Newsom whining about his love life. Funny, he didn't seem to mind the publicity when he was posing on the carpet. Since news hit that Mayor Gavin Newsom was seen kissing "CSI:Miami" star/scientologist Sofia Milos at a North Beach cafe, he has been a bit on the defensive side -- complaining about all the media attention and the hardships of maintaining a private life. Maybe we would feel a little more sympathy for him if it weren't for those haunting images of the mayor and his soon-to-be-ex-wife Kimberly Guilfoyle all snug as two bugs on a billionaire's rug for a Harper's Bazaar spread. . . . . You can't call the media on the carpet when you willingly lie down and pose on it for them. Good an excuse as any for us to haul back out the retired so-best carpet picture itself! ...

Gavin'll try anything to lower the crime rate around here! Leah Garchik triumphantly reports that Gavin was seen kissing CSI: Miami detective Sofia Milos goodbye at a North Beach cafe last Monday morning, around 2:00 a.m. Milos plays Det. Yelena Salas, who will be written off the series at the end of this season. In the Fametracker "Two Stars Enter, One Star Leaves" column, exotic homewrecker edition, Milos lost a hotly-contested battle to Ivana Milicevic, despite having played homewreckers like the woman who was dating Chandler and also some guy named Ethan on "Friends," Tony Soprano's hot mob boss cousin, Richard Lewis's girlfriend whom Larry hates on "Curb Your Enthusiasm," and the girl who married the guy on "Caroline In The City" before Caroline realized she was in love with him. Poor Kimberly Guilfoyle! It's never good when you have to compare yourself to a Lea Thompson character. That Newsom, though -- so he left the North Beach cafe around at 2:00 a.m. Monday morning. By noon the very next day, he was also espied in Napa at the Plumpjack Carneros Inn, brunching with a "young cute blonde." If that guy's motivated enough for ladies that he can get up after like four hours of sleep and schlep up to wine country on Presidents' Day for canoodling, why can't he solve the city's crime problems? Picture of Sofia Milos off her website. Is that fur?...
