Upton sent the first pitch he saw from A’s reliever A.J. Puk into Edgar’s Cantina in left field to tie the game.

Trouble Coffee, at 4033 Judah St., has permanently closed after 15 years, according to the San Francisco Chronicle (SFGATE and the San Francisco Chronicle are both owned by Hearst but operate independently of one another).

But both Vallow and Daybell also entertained ideas at the fringes of the Mormon faith—ideas that weren’t acceptable to talk about in church on Sundays. They held study groups and scrutinized the works of “near-death experience” authors who claimed to have died and come back to life with knowledge from “beyond the veil.” Much has been discussed about : the gorgeous mother and former beauty queen … [Read more...] about Doomsday Dad Chad Daybell Believed He Was a Seer Who Could See ‘Beyond the Veil’
