Authorities are worried that the violent weekend is a harbinger for a bad July 4th. With 12 people dead (two more people were shot after the articles about 10 people killed went up), and half of those killings in Oakland, the Oakland PD is going to be upping patrols this Wednesday.

No one was hurt, and authorities have confirmed that it's not the dreaded "blue ice" that falls from the septic tanks of airplane lavatories.

London says he was upset that Jillette called Mother Teresa slutty (we're paraphrasing) and a fraud, but that his $7000 fatwa was made sarcastically. Only $7000 to kill Penn Jillette? ...

Brand is responsible for publishing the Whole Earth Catalog -- their computer network, the Well, just celebrated it's twentieth anniversary. Ten dollar suggested donation. Friend of SFist Jess Barron invited......
