San Francisco is one of the best cities to pursue alternative food suppliers. When you buy local (as in, non-corporate) you are greatly contributing to your community's economy, instead of padding the pockets of a far off corporate exec. Though our national economy is suffering from outsourcing and war spending, one of the best ways to strengthen it is through fostering a stronger local economic base. It's good economic Karma! Here's a sustainable, local consumer's guide to grocery shopping p...

You may be wondering "What the hell does Fleetwood Mac have to do with the Bay Area?" What follows is my argument for why Fleetwood Mac is a quintessential example of a band infused with classic Bay Area influences: torment, tantra, drugs and drama. The explosive combination of British blues rock (Mick Fleetwood and the McVie's) combined with 1960s Bay Area teenage angst resulted in a melodic, melodramatic and voracious 1970s coming of age for the band, and some of the best classic rock to be...

Here's a list of some stellar tried and true Pizzerias in and around SF.

San Francisco plays host to one of the most vibrant queer communities in the United States, serving as a magnet for queers of every stripe. With so many sub-cultures within the queer scene, it can sometimes be overwhelming to go in search of a comfortable hang-out. Where queer men sometimes have more obvious choices in their social destinations (um, the Castro), queer women often arrive in SF wondering where to wander to. No matter what you're into, San Francisco has a place for you.
