Milk

Slain San Francisco Supervisor Harvey Milk is one giant step closer to getting his name on a major piece of infrastructure. The Board of Supervisors on Tuesday unanimously approved an ordinance to name Terminal 1 of the San Francisco International Airport after Milk, the city’s first openly gay supervisor. He was fatally shot by another supervisor, Dan White, in City Hall in 1978. All ordinances require a second, final vote to be taken at a later meeting. Supervisor Hillary Ronen sponsored the ordinance, which is a modified version of a charter amendment that her mentor, former Supervisor David Campos, proposed in 2013. Campos wanted to name the whole airport after Milk but hit resistance from the city’s Airport Commission and politicians who thought it should be named for someone else. Ronen revived and scaled back the idea last year. She called Tuesday’s vote historic. “When queer kids from around the country land at Harvey Milk Terminal 1, they will know they … [Read more...] about SFO Terminal 1 soon to be named for Harvey Milk

Former Planning Commissioner Christine Johnson has taken a big public step toward entering the race for supervisor of San Francisco’s District Six, adding intrigue to a contest that could shape politics for the rest of the city. Johnson, a moderate who recently resigned as director of the urban think tank SPUR — a group that generally sides with developers — pulled her candidate’s papers to enter the race last Friday. She will compete against pro-housing evangelist Sonja Trauss, also a moderate, and progressive Matt Haney. The district has gone to progressive candidates in the past five elections, but it could flip this year on the heels of a commercial and residential building boom. Johnson said her platform would emphasize safe and clean streets, housing affordability and other policies that help families struggling to live in the city. “I feel I have a message that would resonate with all the residents of District Six,” she said. Trauss … [Read more...] about Former SF planning commissioner Johnson enters District 6 race

Here, we take diners on a guided tour of the silent science, brilliant ideas and awesome techniques behind your favorite restaurant menus. At Lady Falcon Coffee Club, Buffy Maguire and her team of baristas serve espresso and filtered coffee drinks out of a renovated bread truck parked at the top of Alamo Square Park in San Francisco. They also sell bags of their roasted coffee at several Bay Area grocery stores and through their website. A couple of decades ago, coffee evolved from fuel to fashion. Discussions of origin, roasting style and brewing method sidled up alongside “regular or decaf?” in our daily caffeine transactions. Coffee ascended to the same corner of our popular food culture as wine: the smoky VIP section where many of us are afraid to say the wrong thing. Compared to the easy-to-spot distinctions among types of sandwiches, pinpointing the nuances of different single-ingredient foods … [Read more...] about Housemade: Inside the science of coffee with Lady Falcon Coffee Club
