by Kurt Brown, Saint Ram Bone
The explosion in San Francisco today was not what I wanted yesterday when I asked for the creator to "Cross the Arc" "And solder their Plugs to the Ground". Some do not understand the continuum. Valiant effort, wrong way, but I feel the direction has to be taken. Inertia is broken now. Come to Mobile Audit Club and read today's post and yesterday's. Today's post and yesterday's is below....

Bus fares will be going up from $1.25 to $1.50 this September. Along with higher fares, San Franciscans can expect service cuts to bus lines as well as a reduction in driver privileges and mass layoffs. The reason for these changes is to alleviate a $57 million deficit faced by M...

textSF Board of Supervisors Should Use Recess to Address Affordable Housing Crisis by Randy Shaw via Beyond Chron
San Franciscans disagree on many issues, but a near consensus exists that the city’s approach to affordable housing is broken and must be repaired. On one side are those unhappy with the lack of cost accountability for nonprofit housing, and on the other are those upset that current city affordable housing laws shortchange those most in need. As the Board begins a nearly three week recess, there is a perfect opportunity for Supervisors to create consensus legislation that could meet both of t...

textIsraeli forces remove Zionist settlers from Gaza by WSWS
Despite the violence, the Israeli government and security forces have made every effort to placate the settlers, most of whom believe they have a biblical entitlement to Gaza, as part of a “Greater Israel”. The evacuation procedure has been codenamed “Brotherly Hand”, and everyone from Sharon to ground-level army commanders has repeatedly expressed their support and sympathy for the settlers. “We will show all the sensitivity that a family forced to leave its home deserves,” declared Colonel ...
