Day Around The Bay: Oakland's Last Stand For Radical America

Published Aug 2, 2012 · 10:10 AM PDT


  • The New York Times calls Oakland, "The Last Refuge of Radical America" [NYT]

  • Take a look around all the great swimming pools of San Francisco. If only we had been born in the 40s, we could have a cool place to swim right now. [Chron]

  • And then go take a swim for yourself at one of these cheap spots to swim in the Bay Area. [CurbedSF]

  • Calling home chefs: now is your chance to get on a food-centric reality TV show. It's not Top Chef, but it'll have to do for amateur foodies. [Eater]

  • Romantic rendezvous at a Mission hotel ends in one empty wallet for some poor schmuck. [BCN/Appeal]

  • Sharks join flightless birds in the Cal Academy's African Penguin tank, but don't worry — they're harmless nocturnal bottom-feeders. [KTVU]

  • Look at this adorable music video, written and produced by a group of local 10-13 year olds at BAYCAT. The organization, you might remember, had all of their computers (along with the kids' work on the hard drives) stolen a couple weeks back. They're still raising money to help replace all the stolen equipment.
