     Ronald Blake Mallia was mentioned in the San Francisco Chronicle on 21 August 2007: Anti-gentrification forces stymie housing development - Some say decade-old group in Mission is going too far - By Robert Selna
Ron Mallia wants to build eight apartments and condominiums on an empty parking lot next to his Mission District auto shop and rent some of the apartments to his mechanics. His project scents like the kind that would be endorsed by the Mission Anti-Displacement Coalition. but the group has fought Mallia. insisting that his project not go forward until the city evaluates how new development on the city’s east side will affect industrial land. jobs and housing. The fight is one of many recent battles being waged by the coalition, a handful of community organizations focused on immigrants' rights, development and social servicest that was formed a decade ago to resist gentrfication during the dotcom boom. Supervisor Chris Daly, a former tenant activist, takes credit for helping found the group, which has a reputation for staging street protests and illegally occupying private property. More recently, it has used environmental laws to stall more than 50 market-rate housing projects...
(Ron Mattie agreed to $150,000 in fees that will help fund city services to win approval for eight apartments and condos on this lot.)
Mission group wins new concessions

...before narrowly losing a bid this month to block a condominium protect on Cesar Chavez Street that will replace a shuttered paint store. But some longtime Mission residents and business owners question whether the group is going too far, blocking developments that would add middle- income and affordable housing to the neighborhood, in addition to cleaning it up and making it safer. They don’t want any development at all in the Mission because any development makes the area better. ... They don’t want that because they believe that by improving the area, the cost of housing might go up,” said Mallia, who has owned gas stations and car repair shops in the Mission for 25 years. In April, facing pressure from the coalition, the city Planning Commission approved Mallia’s project but with the condition tha: he pay more than $I50,000 in fees that will help fund city services. Although Mailia believed he was getting a raw deal — similar projects have not had to pay such fees, he said — he did not want his protect to stall while he paid taxes on Ihe vacant lot. Malha's property, at 756 Valencia St, is among 2.200 acres in four South of Market neighborhoods...

Ronald Blake Mallia was mentioned in the San Francisco Chronicle on 3 September 2007: Mission obstructionists -- Editor — In an Aug. 27 letter, Julie Leadbetter took to task Robert Selna’s Aug. 21 article, “Anti-gentrification forces stymie housing development, Selna’s well-researched article showed how the Mission Anti-Displacement Coalition, for which Leadbetter fronts, has tried to stop me from building housing that I hope to rent, in part, to my employees. This proposed building will be on what is today a vacant lot next door to my auto shop on Valencia Street. Selna’s article received 280 comments on S.F Gate. The vast majority of those comments charged the Mission Anti- Displacement Coalition with worsening the housing situation with their obstructionist tactics. In sharp contrast, virtually all of my immediate neighbors residents and business owners alike provided letters of support for my project. After doing business in the area for 25 sears, it has been gratifying to see the neighborhood stand up for improvement. I’m proud to be part of it.
RON MALLIA Excellent Automotive San Francisco.

Ronald Blake Mallia was mentioned in the San Francisco Chronicle on 8 March 2012: THE INSIDE SCOOP By Paolo Lucchesi: Former garages become dining magnets
Mission District landlord Ron Mallia says he likes to pick tenants who offer something unique:'a bakery, a chocolatier, a brewery, a wine specialist, a cheese shop and soon. Mallia might not be a household name, but he’s quietly playing a starring role in the continued development of the food scene in San Francisco’s Mission District.
When the economy went downhill, he converted his two historic buildings on Valencia Street — both former auto shops — into eating and drinking establishments.
“Automotive is not what it used to be. There is not as much car repair today,” he says. So Mallia morphed his old garages into restaurant spaces, then sought out small local businesses, turning down the likes of Urban Outfitters and Starbucks. In one of his properties, built in 1927, he’s installed co-op bakery Arizmendi and boutique shop Gypsy Honeymoon (1268 and 1266 Valencia St.) In spring, wine guy David Lynch, formerly of Quince, will open St. Vincent in the building’s southernmost space (1270 Valencia St.) Then there’s the second building a few blocks away Mallia has converted it into three spaces, although none are open yet. The biggest space will go to Abbot’s Cellar (740 Valencia), an upscale beer-centric restaurant from nearby Monk’s Kettle. Chef Adam Dulye is designing a menu specializing in beer pairings, with a la carte and tasting options. Lundberg Design will be responsible for the look of the 100-seat space, which will include an open kitchen and a dedicated beer room. Abbot's Cellar will be bookended by Dandelion Chocolate, an award-winning chocolate factory, and a new patisserie from William Werner.
Werner wil open the much-anticipited spot (746 Valencia St.) after a rocky journey. The pastry chefs background is in fine dining — Quince and the Ritz-Carlton are on his resume — but in 2010, he partnered vith Whisk Group to oper the Tell Tale Preserve Co. He had a spot at the Ferry Plaza Farmen Market and sold good, to cafes around town. When the partnership dissolved last summer, Werner was left out in the cold, forced to close Tell Tale abruptly and unable to buy the name or company.
But now he is back, and ready to open bis 1,200- square-foot patisserie in May, with roujhly 22 seats and a sprawling 20-foot pastry case... He and (?) Maltese Owned Businesses were Maltese Business Owned Excellent Automotive repair service on Valencia St. for 25 years; which he converted into apartments and shops.

Ronald Blake Mallia was mentioned in the San Francisco Chronicle on 21 March 2015: S.F. memory expert to compete against the best by Steve Rubenstein
Ron Mallia, a world class memory expert, practices memorizing a deck of cards at the table he sits at five days a week at the San Francisco Tennis Club in San Francisco. Ron Mallia, a world class memory expert, is able to memorize an entire deck of cards and a random, 100 digit number in five minutes and will be participating this month in a memory competition in New York. Ron Mallia, who can memorize 52 shuffled playing cards in five minutes, is ready for the big time.
He’s taking his playing cards to New York City, where countless others before him have made their mark. Now it’s his turn. If you’re the best at what you do, greatness awaits. And Mallia is the best. “Queen of hearts,” said Ron Mallia, and then he turned the card over and, sure enough, the lady in red smiled up at him from the tabletop. In many games of fortune she can be a fickle female, but when Mallia turns over cards, one by one, there is no element of chance.
“Nine of diamonds, four of clubs, jack of spades” he said, summoning them forward like errant schoolboys, and there they were. He was perfect. He always is.
Mallia, a retired mechanic from San Francisco, was sitting at a restaurant table, a shuffled red deck before him. He was doing some last-minute practicing before flying off for the USA Memory Championship this week, where he and 75 other whizzes will seek to discover who among them is best at memorizing decks of shuffled cards and lists of random numbers.The winner gets a shiny medal and zero dollars, an easy enough number to remember. While The Chronicle shuffled the next deck, Mallia sought to answer the question that countless card memorizers before him have had to deal with: What’s the point of memorizing a deck of cards?
“There’s no practical value,” Mallia said. “But it does keep your mind sharp. I’m trying to take care of my mind.”
It’s like a crossword puzzle or a TV quiz show. There is no reason for any of it, except for the use-it-or-lose-it plan for the human brain.
Mallia, a first-time entrant in the contest at 56, is seeking to stave off for as long as possible whatever is scheduled to happen to him after 56. His coach is San Francisco memory consultant Chester Santos, who conducts $400-a-day seminars for business people who have trouble remembering clients’ names and faces.
To memorize a deck of cards, Mallia uses the old technique of associating each card with a specific object and then linking them in sequence by imagining some sort of action. In his mind, Mallia sees a progression of toes kicking lightbulbs and tops spinning into candy canes. Presented with a freshly shuffled deck, Mallia sits silently, shakes his head and begins rocking side to side. He could pass for a snake charmer facing a cobra. As he flips over each card, he stabs at it with two fingers, like Moe trying to poke Curly’s eyes. The rocking and the stabbing help him focus, he said.
With the clock ticking, he must make sure of each image. If he visualizes the toes kicking the candy cane when it should be kicking the lightbulb, it’s game over.
In the next event, Mallia gets five minutes to memorize a list of 100 random digits. The Chronicle again jotted them down and Mallia did his finger-stabbing, snake-charming thing again. Then he started rocking, as if reading holy writ from the pulpit. As with the cards, Mallia commits to memory action images represented by four-digit combinations of numbers. He began, “10301990,” then, “03221994.” At the New York championship, he’ll also be called upon to memorize a 50-line poem and a big book of names and mug shots. Just as important as remembering is forgetting the meaningless things he just remembered. That way, Mallia said, he keeps his mind clear for the next set of meaningless things. There’s no point overdosing on useless information. For example, Mallia forgot a Chronicle reporter’s name and phone number. “I only remember what I need to remember,” said the man of memory.
