Time to break out the bottomless mimosas; we have things to discuss.
40-Year-Old Oakland Restaurant Bay Wolf Closing In August, SFist
"An iconic fixture of Oakland's Piedmont Avenue since 1975, Bay Wolf is now set to close right after celebrating its 40th Anniversary this summer, as Inside Scoop is reporting. The restaurant is of course of the same era as Chez Panisse, having opened just three years after it, and much like Alice Waters' Berkeley restaurant it was launched by people without formal culinary training and has been at the forefront of many of California's food trends."
San Francisco From the Sky, SF Gate
"San Francisco is a unique city for many reasons, in no small part because geography demands it to be different. Once a series of dunes and marshlands with poor access to fresh water and firewood, San Francisco required creative (and determined) minds to settle.

But the new iPhone's internal components appear destined for an upgrade. According to the latest rumors, the iPhone 6S is slated for a fall release and its widely anticipated feature is Force Touch: the touch screen will also be sensitive to pressure."

California Governor Signs Tough New Vaccine Law, NBC News
"California Gov. Jerry Brown signed a bill Tuesday that removes most of the state's vaccination exemptions, meaning parents can only send unvaccinated kids to school if they have a doctor's note. The new law, called SB 277, takes California from being one of the most liberal states when it comes to letting parents opt out of vaccines, to being one of the strictest."
