What’s an example of a movie filmed in Golden Gate Park that clearly showed the M.H. de Young Memorial Museum building in its second version before it was rebuilt in 2005?

Artist Brings Academy of Sciences’ Dinosaurs to Life
Splatters of paint flurry across a navy-blue apron. A thin brush slips between fingers and swashes a kaleidoscope of colors on a canvas. With sleeves rolled to her elbows, Yukari Sakura leans close and settles a careful gaze over the page. While her focus never seems to lift, a smile splashes across her face as she sees her art pieces coming to life.

‘Cooking Together’: Home-made Berry Jam
I have not bought jams from a grocery store ever since I moved to California, some 50+ years ago. And I have raised three children, frequently making them PB&J sandwiches for lunch. Now that the kids are grown, I still enjoy making jams, sometimes for myself or to give them away to friends.
Letter to the Editor: Only One Dollar Per Resident ‘Community Benefit’ from Outside Lands
The promoter of Outside Lands has so magnanimously granted us residents of the Richmond and Sunset $35,000 each in so-called Community Benefit Funds from Outside Lands profits. Researched that the Richmond itself has about 35,000 residents, so each of us get a “benefit’ of exactly ONE DOLLAR for the lost weekend of noise and air pollution, heavy traffic, etc. Can assume the Sunset residents “benefit” about the same.
Letter to the Editor: Opposed to Additional Concerts After Outside Lands
