The Church of Scientology wants to get down with its bad self and expand the golf course next to its San Jacinto, Calif., headquarters. Sounds fun—we assume scientologists are pretty good with a 7-iron—except two residents of Sleepy Hollow trailer park are the last ones standing in the way of the construction. Although 19 of their neighbors have moved—whether happily or not—Candice Savage and Joseph Neely maintain that the park is protected by a law that requires mobile-home tenants be given a year's notice, filing court motions to prolong the eviction. They were supposed to be out yesterday after the Church gave them $800, waived their rent, and gave them two months to leave. The things people do for the man upstairs!

Folio has just released a list of the top 50 most-followed magazine brands on Twitter—People obviously ranks No. 1. Just when the cold absence of shelter magazines starts sinking in—wait!—there's Dwell, clocking in proudly at No. 35. As we've established before, things like spartan prefab housing outside Zurich or a sliced-open bunker in Holland are among the brightest spots in our days. Kudos to our lovable San Franciscan cousins for their social media knowhow.
