- Roller Derby Dynamism
Since moving to SF almost four years ago and after more post-run ales at Kezar Pub than I count, I’ve wondered what took place inside the stadium across the street. This weekend pals and I found out in the form of co-ed roller derby in which the SF Bay Bombers took on Brooklynites with the [...]
- In Conversation with Skimble’s Maria Ly
In advance of the most recent Skimble iPhone app update, company co-founder Maria Ly talked with Women 2.0 and VidSF about creating the activity tracking platform. She certainly didn’t sit down for the In Conversation series interview at Mission Cliffs, but she did discuss transitioning from a Fortune 500 company to selecting activities for personal [...]
- Pre-V Day Edition
I’ll keep the pink links to a minimum, but there are quite a few Valentine’s Week events in SF that deserve consideration. We can get the worst named out of the way first–that being “Singles & Sprinkles” at food community space 18 Reasons on Thursday. The Little Lane art studio will be helping with cookie [...]
- Pop-Up Magazine, Vol. 2
Pop-Up Magazine, the local visual and auditory extravaganza, will feature its second live event on September 25. Radio, newspaper and online magazine contributors will present highlights of their work for this installment to be hosted by the women-run theater Brava on 24th.
I’m bummed to miss what should be another story re-telling-worthy evening, but it’s for [...]
- Unclassed
SoCap Conference producer and pal Amy Benziger pointed (un)classes out to me when we talked about excuses for combining yoga and biking, and I’m most grateful. The community-powered learning community was created as Rahmin Sarabi’s experiment to see what his friends could teach each other in the name of co-education following a visit to the [...]
- Simply Snik
Genius Jimi wallet creator Mike O’Neill tipped me off to a Snik recently, and I’m most grateful. With the global user base of mobile phones approaching 3 billion people, more than a few music listeners and callers find themselves in a daily tangle of headphones/bags/jackets that might be avoided if Snik creator Rob Honeycutt has [...]
- Splashy
Nike’s latest outreach to action sports aficionados takes the form of take-home video, slowed down shots, and rain, snow, and sleet. In conjunction with the marketing agency TAOW and director Jared Eberhardt, Slow-Mo spots captured surfers Dusty Payne and Casey Brown’s faces at 1,000 frames per second as they were hit with waves. The corresponding [...]
- Appel & Frank Eco-Chic Returns
A San Franciscan looking for, say, a gun necklace to accompany their VP candidate Halloween costume will be happy to know they can find one that was created without leaving a trace. The Appel & Frank Eco-Chic shopping event on Thursday evening at the Regency Center on Sutter combines sustainable apparel, jewelry and personal care [...]
- Monterey 3:16
High of 65, high of 65. I tried to keep focusing on good things while we biked from our hotel in Monterey to the triathlon start. It was only four miles, but at 5:45 AM on Saturday my thoughts were full of doom of gloom. Sharks. Lipstick and farm animals. Lehman.
Then I started to think [...]
- Good karma and wine: Yoga class for cancer research on 8/30
In the midst of getting my eyelashes stuck in my open water swim goggles at triathlon practice the other day, I tried to think happy thoughts. People I care about…wine…good work…yoga…SF…
Bingo–what better way to raise money for leukemia research and the upcoming Monterey triathlon than a charity yoga class? Local all-star instructor Debbie Mobley has [...]
