- The SF Board of Supervisors could not hold their regularly scheduled Tuesday meeting today, because someone apparently vandalized the cables used for the SFGovTV feed. The Chronicle confirmed that Comcast cables were indeed slashed at Geary and Hyde Streets, and the meeting is being rescheduled for Wednesday, due to legal requirements about broadcasting the meeting on two Comcast channels. But it’s too bad, because an Emperor Norton and Empress José Sarria were both there in full regalia ready for a hearing on renaming a street for Emperor Norton. [@AaronPeskin via Twitter]
