Bender’s just got a little more sketch. From CBS 5:
The victim, who is not a San Francisco resident, had pulled over near 19th Street and South Van Ness Avenue shortly after 4:30 a.m. Thursday to adjust something in the trunk of her car, San Francisco police Sgt. Lyn Tomioka said.
A pickup truck pulled up next to her and a man inside forced her into the cabin of his vehicle, Tomioka said. He drove her around for a few minutes before taking her purse, stopping the truck and forcing her to get out [about a mile away from the kidnapping].
A hot tip fresh from the twitternets:

Hopefully we’ll get more info soon.

Happening this Friday:
CELLspace needs a bit of velo-loving, so all are invited to stop by for a night of bikes, beer, and bands. Since 1996, the CELL has supported the arts as well as alternative transportation. For RIDE TOO!, we would like to also welcome back our old neighbors, the Bike Kitchen to their new shop back on Florida Street. Proceeds from this event will go to cover rent for CELLspace as well as help fund the new Mural Project on 633 Florida St. (which will include a Bike Kitchen mural).
Enjoying the View is a collection of iPhone photos taken from the same spot at the top of Dolores Park. It’s like an iPhone timelapse, only it’s nothing like a timelapse.

Who knew that any part South Van Ness not around Bender’s could look so nice?
Sex Pigeon has the scoop.
Cindy sends us this tip:
Once or twice I referred to it as DP while gchatting and was later informed, by my boyfriend that DP stood for double penetration. So now I always write it out, to avoid confusion.
Now I know why my friend replied “fuck no” to my “dp?” text the other day. This is awkward city and I’m running for mayor.
Finally, we can put the Summer-long Pi Bar meme to rest. Today, Urban Daddy brings us the first comprehensive set of details about the new restaurant. Sounds like it could be good times (although it seem as though they think 3.14 * 2 is the same as 3.14². Whoops).
