Oscar weekend is here, and if you're looking for the best place to celebrate, look no further than the Academy of Friends Gala. With food, wine and champagne provided by a variety of Bay Area restaurants and caterers, you'll be able to enjoy the Oscars while raising money for HIV/AIDS charities.
In other Castro-related news, District 8 Supervisor Scott Wiener again called for the tent encampments along Division Street to be removed, due to them being "unhealthy, unsanitary, and unsafe, both for the occupants of the tents and for surrounding neighborhoods." After initially announcing that tent occupants had 72 hours to vacate, city officials began sweeping the area and removing inhabitants yesterday afternoon.
