We came across this wonderful blind item over at ValleyWag (via Overheard in the Office). It seems that someone on the Board of Supes doesn't know the difference between a placeholder name and their signature, euphemistically. Do you know who it was? We're going to go ahead sweepingly generalize that it was either Ammiano or Dufty, because gays only care about little boys and baggies, shiny objects, and unicorns. Council member: I heard you......

We here in the Ist-A-Verse know that we're sensational, but it's very rare that we get a chance to be sensationalistic. This week, we've decided to have ourselves a little fun and try our hand at tacky tabloid headlines, using nothing more than our favorite posts from this week.

[Ed. note: we were out of the office yesterday afternoon, so the blog pulse is a day late this week. Sorry!] We start this week with a pictoral ode to our fair city, compounded with a pretty scathing dissection of Windows Live Search functionality, courtesy of the uber-tech-photohound, Thomas Hawk. There's more interesting San Francisco photos over at Elaine Castillo's Flickr feed. It's very much a family photo album of the first year of her......

We've been speculating on how they'll misname Mays Field next for exactly one year as of today, which is why we were especially excited to get this tip in our inbox: Overheard from Larry Baer himself today that tomorrow, Feb. 3, they will officially announce the ballpark's new name: AT&T. When we read this, we groaned like the hatchback of our 76 Skyhawk. "AT&T park"? Ugh. Well, we guess it could be worse. Right? Big......

hey, listen up! Originally uploaded by bitterlysweet. Bonjour, superspies. You're our eyes and ears here at SFist (and occasionally other appendages, too, which we love), always vigilant and alerting us to what's up around town. Well, we need your observational help for a brand-new feature that we're about to launch, which hopefully nobody will notice is a localized ripoff of Overheard in New York. We're calling it "Yvesdroppings," because "overheard" was taken several times......

SFist reviews The Red Walls at Cafe du Norde...

The Painted Rooms show we announce on the site yesterday seems to have been a smashing success -- there certainly were a lot of hipsters onhand, as well as some less hip people that looked in the buying mood (God bless them). We attended with ever-fashionable Molly Go Lightly, SFist Ted: Weatherman and Dogster Steven. The good? Kelly Tunstall's work and room were fan-f**king-tastic. We also loved the big cartoon acrylics of Isis Rodriguez.......
