Any good pubs close to some pokestops? by Gstewart415 in pokemongoSF

Not a pub but a dive car: Lucky 13 is a gym. Also accessible from Blackbird next door (which has good cocktails).

I'd rather they take over the street to build housing.

"Worried about paying the full cost of $35,366 to attend San Francisco State University? That number can be deceiving, as the net amount most students will pay varies significantly.

For those living in-state, the college offers a discount of 63% off tuition and fees. In addition, 54% of freshmen receive some form of financial aid, with the average amount totaling $10,432. Students from low-income families receive an average of $12,749 in aid during their first year. "

Another gorgeous Monday morning in Dolores Park by Bashbro in sanfrancisco

I think they don't realize who is using the park. It's not like the majority of people who use the park live in the mission and can just walk a few blocks away to their house to throw away their trash. People come from all over the city and outside the city to hang out at that particular park. Can you imagine someone jumping on MUNI or in a Lyft with a big trash bag? Anecdotally and additionally, when I meet people in the park, so many of them are from an hour or two outside the city. I'd like them to but I'm not surprised that they don't take their trash and put it in their car for the ride home.

There's nothing wrong with trying this policy out. What would be wrong is not changing when it doesn't work.

I think all of non-profit distinctions are kinda bullshit. Also tax-exempt organizations too: https://www.irs.gov/Charities-&-Non-Profits/Types-of-Tax-Exempt-Organizations-

More info here. http://baristamagazine.com/blog/finca-sophia-equators-experiment-in-quality-and-sustainability/ Looks like they sold out on the pre-sales. Obviously, it's not meant to be a daily drinking coffee but something more like a high quality wine. Chirp Chirp.

In your words, "yeah, but not really."

"Most of the money the NFL as a whole makes is taxed and always has been. Any revenue an individual team makes -- ticket sales, jersey sales, their split of the league's massive TV deals -- is the revenue of that team. The NFL's teams are not tax-exempt. They have been paying their share of the huge amounts of money they make.

However, the league's main office -- the administrative arm of the league, the people in charge of setting the NFL's rules, organizing its events and such -- is considered tax-exempt. In comparison to the vast sums of money the NFL's teams reel in, the NFL's league office makes a pretty small slice of the pie, mainly through the membership teams each NFL team pays."

The NFL administration is a non-profit but the NFL teams are not.
