San Francisco’s Biker Bunny Once Again Haunts Market Street
Friday, December 11th, 2009Meraki Wants to WiFi Your School for Just $8 Per Student, Sort of, If You Act Now
Tuesday, October 20th, 2009Oddly-named Meraki wants to WiFi up your K-12 school with a quickness, so all the kids can watch the Lady Gaga (coming December 13th, 2009!) and AutoTune the News without all those pesky wires about. See?
“Meraki, the cloud-based wireless networking company, launched its “Wireless For Schools” program today, offering K-12 schools and districts a comprehensive 802.11n wireless LANat the price of $40 per student or less. The program enables schools to deploy a high-quality wireless network quickly, easily, and at less than half the cost of other solutions in the market. To qualify, schools must contact Meraki and make their purchases by December 22, 2009.”
Now that’s $40 per, but if you get some kind of E-rate rebate aka (Universal Service Fund for Schools and Libraries (USFSL) from Uncle Sucker, the Feds will kick in for 80% of the bill. I mean, they wanted to pay for the Bridge to Nowhere and they still want to pay for the bulk of the Chinatown subway – the Feds have all kinds of moola. So it’s time to get your fair share. You know…. for kids.
Meraki founders Hans Robertson and Sanjit Biswas want to Free the Net, or something:

Remembering Charles Gain, the Last SFPD Police Chief to Wear a Suit More than a Uniform
Wednesday, October 7th, 2009New San Francisco Police Chief George Gascón is becoming known for donning a suit more often than a uniform, per this bit from CW Nevius. Now the last time we had a chief like that was from 1975-1980, when “outsider” Charles Gain ran the SFPD.
Did Chief Gain really have all of San Francisco’s police cars painted soft pale blue and did he really replace the seven-pointed SFPD stars on the doors with the San Francisco Seal avec an encircling ”POLICE SERVICES” motif?
Yes, yes he did. How friendly!
Can you imagine?
Looks like the seven-pointed star made it onto the trunks, though. As seen in Milk:
Now what do you think the union thought about that? Not much.
Mayor Dianne Feinstein asked for his resignation in 1979 after the White Night Riots and he was replaced in 1980.
And now San Francisco’s “black-and-whites” are black and white again, with stars and everything.
Don’t expect that to change anytime soon.
Does Your Motorcycle Jacket have a Prominent Metallic Spine? If Not, Why Not?
Saturday, May 16th, 2009Here’s the thing about this red leather motosickle jacket from Icon – you need to scuff up the metal part before you go around wearing this indoors, as this fellow was doing. It’s no good to be at a getogether with your spine all polished up and shiny. You gots to have scuffed up, as if you wreck every couple of weeks or so.
Just as Oprah doesn’t want to see unburned candles around the house, or plastic sheeting on couches neither, see? You gotta live, baby. So burn down those candle wicks, even if it’s just for a second or two, and then scuff up your carbon fiber encased jacket spine. Isn’t it boss?
Dude looks like a ninja turtle, and what’s wrong so with that?
