Greenwich pocket park threatened by council sale plan
"Pocket park" is an abused term, but the idea is that it's a small open space looked after by the local community. It's something that's been championed by City Hall under Boris Johnson's administration, and it's been apparently been used to fund 100 projects across the capital.
As ever, it doesn't appear that Greenwich Council has got involved in this scheme. But a good example would be the little patch of green at the Blackwall Lane/ Tunnel Avenue junction in east Greenwich.
I'm guessing it probably dates back to the construction of the Blackwall Tunnel approach in the late 1960s. It's almost a village green for this overlooked corner of SE10, helping soak up the high pollution levels and offsetting the effect of the ugly flats going up next door.
Overshadowed in recent years by a large ad hoarding, the green's been looked after by council staff – not from the parks department, I gather, but from the Cleansweep streets operation. There's potential here – but instead, the council wants to get rid of this little space…
Buried in back of this week's edition of council propaganda sheet Greenwich Time is this public notice, stating the authority's intention to sell the space. Presumably it thinks it'll be attractive to property developers – even though the green itself is about the only appealling thing in this area.
In recent years, Greenwich has used spare plots of land for council housing – including wiping out a small green space on the borough boundary at Hambledown Road in Sidcup. But at least that land went to some public good – here, the council, which recently announced it has reserves of £1.2 billion, just wants to flog it and cash in.
And despite protestations that this is a "new era" of openness for the council, the first anyone knew of the plan was by looking at the back of Greenwich Time.
There are ways to fight this – getting it declared a village green, or an asset of community value – although these don't offer much protection when it's the council itself is the wrecking party. I wonder what the three new Peninsula ward councillors think of what's being done in their name?

Everyone loves a good old dose of hypocrisy and greed. I have come to expect nothing less of Greenwich Council.
My partner and I saw this and have had a conversation with Mary Mills about it. We have emails going back about 10 years encouraging, cajoling and pleading with numerous persons to maintain and improve the space. Last we heard was that the new manager, Carey, was looking to fund some new rose plants and getting the payback team to repair and paint the railings. Nobody has bothered to contact us with the new 'plan'.
I don't know if you remember the little ecology park that was around the back or Marlton Street a few years ago? Well, the council very quietly put that up for sale claiming that it was an under used resource. They omitted to mention that they had padlocked the park shut several years before and put up a ten foot fence stopping any use but that was a minor point. Suffice to say that the park is no and I reckon they will run rough shod over local opinion anyway.
Peninsula councillors have been conspicuous by there (on line) absence.
Many thanks for bring this to everyone's attention. My letters (both physical and electronic formats) are on their way. Previously I would have never expected such a tiny plot of land to be at risk of development, but having seen the number of shoebox-sized flats they have crammed onto the (also small) adjoining old car wash site, nothing would surprise me now.
living in Greenwich-Greenwich is becoming far too crowded; with all the latest high rise coming on stream (in addition to that already on stream), a possible IKEA and 3rd Blackwall Tunnel, I can see it all grinding to a halt. Our Council is still not happy now wanting any patch of green that might be a stray to sell for more house planning applications. We'll soon be devoid of most birdlife as every odd little green space and skyline gradually disappear, save for the Greenwich Park that is jam-packed with coach loads and boat loads of tourists. Will the current transport facilities be sufficient? not to mention the sewage systems!
This one and the little eco park which will make way for the Ikea store, plus the large fields lost to building behind the Ecology Park will leave much less to act as "green lungs" to filter the already harmful air pollution, not to mention its impact on what wildlife still clings on in the Penisula area. Plus, as Darryl points out, it is about the nicest spot in that area (or would be with a tiny bit of basic TLC) and could be used as a mini park by residents. When all the extra people and traffic really start to arrive Greenwich is going to need more of these kind of spaces to allow people any kind of quality of life. Greenwich Council seems stuck in a kind of '80s time warp when it comes to the environment – all about massive building projects (not social housing, which would be more understandable, but for money) and increasing traffic and ignoring all the knowledge we now have about pollution and biodiversity as well as basic human needs such as green space and clean air.
but doesn't it require the locals (to this green space in question) to convince the Council they want it and would like to use it – isn't Boris Johnson's "Pocket Park" scheme also about the locals maintaining it? If we do write-in, it will need a request for the council to inform the locals of this chance to claim their pocket-park … and would they wish to/ action themselves to make a claim on it, tend it and use it?
Letter on its way… Have to say I walked past that notice twice assuming it just related to the current shoe box development of the car park site.
Having spent some time in Tokyo I've seen the end point of this kind of development… 20 storey blocks of flats put up right in front of existing ones to the point the balconies are almost touching. It really feels like the peninsula is the place to develop rather than this… While they are building up the riverfront with tower blocks at a fair rate there's still acres of wasteland calling out for sensible low rise development
Thanks very much Darryl for bringing this to our attention. And Mary, for telling us to get on and contact Power & co (done).

Dim sum near Stanley park
I am traveling to Vancouver with my husband and five year old from Austin TX, for a few days before our Alaskan cruise. We are staying at the pan pacific hotel and will not have a car. I would love any foodie suggestions on our itinerary. We are ok with any budget, but with a young child we tend to avoid hole in the wall places with minimal seating, slow service, or too quiet fine dining places. We don't need a kids menu. We are looking forward to great seafood
Here's a preliminary itinerary
Saturday -Granville market. Where should we eat here for early lunch? Are there must eat treats at the market (like the hot donuts at pike place in Seattle?). We are going to fairmont for tea, then vij for dinner. What time do we need to be in line to make the first seatIng on Saturday? Is the rangoli cafe next door almost as good as vij?
Sunday- aquarium and Stanley park. Is there any dim sum or sushi nearby within walking distance? Or a japadog stand? Then we are going to Blue water cafe for dinner
Thanks in advance for all your help!
As far as I know, there are only three Chinese restaurants that does Cantonese dim sum in downtown:
- HON's (Robson St)
- Victoria Seafood Restaurant (basement of Hyatt Hotel, Burrard & Georgia)
- Kirin Seafood (Alberni St)
There are a small handful of Shanghainese restaurants that offer Northern Chinese dim sum, 'tho, if that's what you're after:
- Shanghai Xiao Long Bao Restaurant (Richards St)
- Dinesty (Robson St)
- New Peace (Davie St)
Granville Island has some good places to buy fixings for a picnic but I can't really recommend any of the dine-in (or even takeaway) options. If you have a fridge in your hotel room I'd strongly recommend you purchase the makings of same for your trip to Stanley Park/Aquarium. There is nothing within reasonable walking distance with a five year old, and you don't want to be eating anything they are selling in the park.
Just outside Granville Market is Go Fish, which always goes over well with my niece. Be warned the lineup will be stupidly long on a sunny Saturday (probably in excess of an hour) at lunch. So either go right at opening or wait till after 2, and even then you will likely still have to wait.
I'd make sure to be at Vij's a minimum of 1/2 hour before opening on a Saturday in hopes of getting in the first seating -- I'd prolly go for 45 minutes to be on the safe side. Dunno if my 5 yo niece would be happy with that scenario
: -). Rangoli is not IMO a substitute.
Sorry to further rain on your parade but I can't imagine a child that age being happy at Blue Water. The ambiance, the food, the white table cloths, all not really kiddie appropriate, even if you went right at opening...
re: grayelf
In regards to Blue Water & kids, I would definitely request a booth. My boss has been bringing his little one since they were 2 (now 7) for our staff dinners and it has always worked out.
With the booths, my boss has always sat the little on the inside with him in the outer seat in case of meltdown and they can fidget all they want.
The staff and kitchen are very accommodating. They don't have crayons or anything but the staff does their best. The kitchen has made french fries, simple chicken & cheese pasta & special ice cream sundaes for our honorary staff member.
re: grayelf
For Vij's, maybe one of you could head down, about 30-45 min prior to opening, and then the rest of the family could arrive separately later?
Rangoli is not a substitute at all. The concept is completely different, although the food is also good.
re: KarenDW
If someone is waiting in the line up at Vij's, there is a Chapters Indigo store at Broadway and Granville with a large children's section that could make for a good place to while away the time with a 5 year old.
re: KarenDW
Paul's Omelettery on Granville/6 Ave is very family-friendly.
re: grayelf
If you like the idea of Go Fish, you can order ahead by phone That way you can still sit outdoors and beat the line ups. We have done this numerous times and they give you pretty accurate pick up times. Here is the menu http://www.urbanspoon.com/cities/14/r...
Some sushi options at or near the corner of Denman & W. Georgia streets, about as close as you can get to Stanley Park/aquarium:
But I have not visited any of them so I've no opinions on them, but Urbanspoon may provide some insights:
re: mlin1
Info I found in a quick search is from March 2012 and the one year licences for the three park carts (two in Stanley Park) may have already expired: http://www.insidevancouver.ca/2012/06...
If you've never been to Stanley Park, be aware that it is HUGE and if you are at one end of it and a cart is at the other, it may be too far to walk reasonably for snacks.
FWIW there are now two Feastro trucks and I saw the one near the Olympic cauldron on Friday.
The City of Vancouver website is no help either, last updated in April 2013: "Vancouver's popular food cart program has expanded to parks. More information will be available in the coming months" http://vancouver.ca/parks-recreation-...
This site can be useful: http://streetfoodapp.com/vancouver but I'd still call first and be prepared for a particular cart NOT to be where it usually is.
There are no park food carts listed for today, but you may want to look on a Sunday before you arrive to see who is where.
re: mlin1
I don't think there are any food carts in Stanley Park this year. Not enough people in any one place to make it viable it seems.
It is a long walk to sushi or Japadog from the Aquarium - more like a bus ride. The park is big.
My recommendation is bring your own food or plan to eat at the Aquarium. I don't have kids but my young niece comes to visit and I find that it is hard on a kid to be dragged around looking for food. You child may be more adaptable though.
Food items at Granville Island: check out Oyama for wonderful charcuterie and cheese selections, the Rosemary & Rock Salt bagels at Siegels, the foccaccia bread at Duso's Italian Deli, and the frites (cooked in duck fat and served with bacon aioli at Edible Canada kittycorner from the market, by the bank machines- they used to hae a take-away counter and will still do the frites as take-away if you ask; the shop in the back is also a great source for local edible gift items). For a sit-down restaurant the only ones on the Island that I would recommend would be the Dockside restaurant in the Granville Island Hotel. The Sandbar is also reasonable and has a large seafood listing.
As mentioned before, Stanely Park is very large and the Aquarium could easily take the better part of a day. I would think about packing a picnic with you rather than relying on the food available in the park. The two nice restaurants in Stanley Park (The Fish House and The Tea House) are okay foodwise (nothing amazing but reasonable quality) and very good options for nicer dining with children. The Tea House has an amazing view FWIW. Both are about a 45min walk (YMMV, literally) away from each other and from the Aquarium.
FWIW, the aquarium's food service is more than serviceable and has come a long ways from the crap concession offerings it used to dole out:
Prices are high(-er) as can be expected at any touristy places, but all the hot foods are made-to-order.
For mlin1's consideration if other suggestions aren't that feasible.
I wonder if your schedule for Saturday is realistic. You are going to Granville Island, having lunch, then back downtown for tea at the Fairmont and then back across the bridge for Vij's which will require showing up early f you want the first seating. That seems like a lot of travel for one day.
For lunch on Granville Island, I'm going to suggest the Edible Canada Bistro.
I know many will suggest Go Fish but it is not a restaurant where you can go inside and sit down. There are long line ups, not much place to sit except on the seawall and no shade. Not sure about the washroom facilities either. Personally I would not subject a 5 year old to that, but again, you know your child.
re: Anne M
On Granville Isld, we've had success with our son (now 7) over the years at Whet Kitchen/Wet Bar and Cats Social House:
And even Bridges:
Neither are necessarily recs by Chowhounders, but they're far better than food courts and fast foods. On days when you can sit outside (Whet has covered patio) it's great for the little people as they don't get so fussy when there are things to look at. Cats has a nice lofty spacious interior which makes it less stuffy. All these restaurants (incl. Anne's rec of Edible Canada Bistro) offer adjacent "escape" space when little people do get fussy, and are used to families eating there so their staff know how to treat them right.
re: LotusRapper
I've been to Whet with my niece and I agree it is a good option. The food was fine too. Haven't been to Cats or Bridges lately. Here's a link to the Edible Canada site so you can compare menus: http://www.ediblecanada.com/bistro/
re: Anne M
Good call on mentioning the lack of seating at Go Fish. We only go when there is seating ie. off hours, or we call ahead and get takeout, which opens up the seawall ledges by the ponds!
Thanks for all the great feedback. Perhaps we will snack thru the granville market, split a fish and chips at go fish, then go to tea. If i call in advance i assume i go straight to the food pickup window?
Turns out our blue water dinner is another evening (for when we return from our cruise), so that frees up a dinner for Sunday. Any suggestions? Is c restaurant a good choice? I lnow the reviews are mixed and service spotty but the view sounds amazing and hawkshaw salmon sounds interesting as well. Then again maybe it's overblown (IMO, like copper river salmon in seattle)? I'm wondering if there are similar maybe better, noisier/casual seafood places with an outdoor deck or at least a water view?
re: mlin1
"I'm wondering if there are similar maybe better, noisier/casual seafood places with an outdoor deck or at least a water view?"
Hmmm, I like your parenting style :-)
Not a seafood place per se, but water views definitely, and they're a hop skip and jump from Pan Pacific:
It's noisy, casual and has outdoor deck :-)
re: LotusRapper
Yup. I'd second cardero's. Food is pretty decent as well and they usually have BC-ish items.
So today we had a great day at Granville market. We checked out cats social but the menu looked more interesting at edible Canada and we enjoyed the duck confit poutine, and waffles with some sort of crazy delicious sugary crust. Then had tea at the fairmont which was sweet (bubble gum tea for my daughter). The food was pretty standard but did include some delicious scones and pistachio petit fours. We had a great dinner at blue water cafe- they were able to make tempura shrimp
and sushi rice for my daughter off the menu. The service was terrific and the restaurant was loud and lively. We had scallops, hamachi appetizer, ceviche which were all delicious. We requested a booth as was suggested on this board and it was perfect. We had a chance to enjoy some great BC wines. Looking forward to Stanley park tomorrow
Today we spent the morning in Stanley park which as you all warned me is HUGE. We did not have a car so took a can to the totem poles and walked to the aquarium. Two Hours later we took the train ride and then taxi back to the pier for lunch at Miku. This was my first time having aburi style sushi which was nigiri pressed, topped with a purée and seared lightly with a blowtorch to give it an amazing smokey taste - amazing. Plus it was inside the fairmont hotel so they were very accommodating to my daughter who had udon and more tempura shrimp. We stopped in Bella gelateria for a snack, then had dinner at Vij. We were there about 50 mins before opening and there were about 8 people ahead of us. The lamb Popsicles were taste and perfectly cooked, but maybe a bit under seasoned. The samosa came with a delicious coconut chutney and the pork belly spoon with fruit compote was delicious. We also had the braised short rib with jelly beans and currants- this was tender and delicious. We leave for Alaska tomorrow, where I am anticipating mediocre food. Well be back next week for japadog and Guu. Many many thanks to all of you for your advice. I love your city!

Letter: It's 'brilliant' again.
IN THE Questionnaire feature on March 22, Clive Smith Clive Smith can either refer to:
- Clive Smith, a musician born in London and raised in New York City.
- Clive Smith, Clive Smith a Kingston Polytechnic lecturer and one of four candidates trained as a cosmonaut in the USSR under Project Juno, a private British space
After a successful beginning to his jumping career in France, Kauto Star (pronounced "Kor-toe") has had an extremely successful career in England. and Master Minded, was quoted as saying that his least favourite racecourse is Tweseldown in Hampshire.
"It used to be brilliant," he said, "but they let the trees grow so you can't see the racing."
Mr Smith's attentions have understandably been directed in recent times towards grander places than Tweseldown, which now stages three point-to-points annually as well as top-class eventing and the Aldershot Horse Show.
But if he is able to visit Tweseldown on April 26 for our final point-to-point meeting of the season, he will be able to see 95 per cent of the racing. The centre of the course has been landscaped under the direction of manager Brynley Powell.
Tweseldown is once again "brilliant" and is very popular with trainers and riders - and it even has a grandstand, a legacy of the pre-war days when it was a bona fide racecourse.

Category: Art Galleries
Region: Fair Park
Sometimes all a gallery exhibition needs is a backdrop of thunder or a quick burst of explosions. OK, maybe art doesn't usually need those things, but they promise to make the new exhibition at the Reading Room a bit more exciting. Marfa-based artist Nicolas G. Miller's sound and sculpture installations in Common Sense include a "soundtrack" he derived from low-frequency effects tracks of Stephen Spielberg films. The works are meant to blend together to create an atmosphere appropriate for pondering the communal aesthetic experience and its relationship to moral judgment. Common Sense opens Saturday at The Reading Room, 3715 Parry Ave., with a reception from 6 to 9 p.m. The gallery is free and open to the public.
Sat., March 15, 6-9 p.m., 2014

Tremors over the Trayvon Martin shooting in Florida continue to reverberate among civil rights leaders, elected officials and minority communities. Martin was a 17-year-old black male who encountered George Zimmerman, a half-white, half Hispanic neighborhood watch man. Their confrontation resulted in the shooting death of Martin, who was unarmed and apparently walking away from Zimmerman. The facts of the case are still being investigated, and while the case against Zimmerman looks strong, he is entitled to a presumption of innocence until proven guilty in a court of law. Facts are still being uncovered, some of which may support Zimmerman. Unfortunately, it's been grist for the media that's intent on trial by television. Racial politics saturate the whole sorry saga and I, for one, believe that it's a reasonable surmise that if the shooter had been black he most likely would have been arrested. I can understand the anger and resentment that Zimmerman is free. But it hardly justifies the media circus and the racial bombast that hovers over this case like a lit match being waved over an open container of gasoline. The whole messy episode has fueled outrage over what is perceived as different standards of justice.
But the story also raises the curtain upon a broader scene than this solitary and tragic incident. Statistics show that almost half of the murder victims in the United States are black, though they represent 13 percent of the population. The majority of those murdered were between the ages of 17-29, which, by the way, also represents the majority of those incarcerated in U.S. prisons. Of those blacks who are murdered each year, some 93 percent of them were murdered by other blacks. It is a cycle of violence that plagues our inner cities. When a member of the city council demanded that Ray Kelly, the longest serving police commissioner in NYC, apologize to minorities for using stop and frisk tactics in Harlem, the commissioner pulled no punches: "Ninety-six percent of shooting victims in this city are people of color and 90 percent of the murder victims are people of color," said Kelly. "When we stop and frisk," the commissioner continued, "whose lives do you think we are saving?" The answer, of course, is self-evident.
Yet the race card seems to trump everything; while the shameful legacy of slavery and Jim Crow putridly lingers, since those years there has been an extraordinary sea change. When Barack Obama was born in 1961, vast numbers of blacks in the American South were segregated and couldn't vote. Now we have an African-American president. Racism in this country exists, but like rodents, it must,scamper stealthily in the shadows; they're too great a target in the light of day. It is no longer profitable to live in the dead past when the future is so alive with possibilities.
To compare the brutal murder of Emmett Till in 1955 to the Martin case is a reckless correlation. Till was a 14-year-old African-American boy who was cold-bloodedly killed in racist Mississippi for nothing more than whistling at a white girl. It was clear the defendants were guilty as sin; but it took just 67 minutes for them to be acquitted. "If we hadn't stopped for pop," said one juror, "it wouldn't have even taken that long." Later the jurors admitted the two defendants' guilt, but did not believe that the death penalty or life imprisonment fit the crime of white men killing a black boy. It's an infuriating and bitter thing to reflect about the racially motivated murders that for decades occurred in the South. But that ugly slice of America no longer exists; Bull Connor and his dogs are as much history as yesterday's weather.
If George Zimmerman is guilty, and he may well be, he should be punished to the full extent of the law. But justice rendered in the Martin case, whichever way it's decided, does nothing to resolve the larger problems of black America. The political columnist and commentator Juan Williams, who is black and liberal, has argued that the death of Trayvon Martin should goad socially conscious people to confront not only the murder rate of black people, but drug dealers who prey on young African Americans, bad schools that produce a 50 percent dropout rate for teenage boys that in turn creates a 40 percent unemployment rate for black teens, and cable television shows that constantly offer minstrel-show images of black youth as rappers and comedians who don't value education, dismiss marriage, and celebrate killing people, drug money and jailhouse fashion — the pants falling down because the jail guard has taken away the belt, the shoes untied because the warden removed the shoe laces, and accessories such as the drug dealer's pit bull.
Whew! — those are strong and biting words. They can be debated — but they can't be dismissed. Not many years ago Bill Cosby lamented about the same thing and caught hell. We'll see what happens with Williams. What is grating about this sub-culture of violence, gangsters and drug wars is that there is a thriving black middle class in this country who live very differently from the urban poor who have been mired in intractable social pathologies. It's no different with poor urban whites, though their percentage of the population is not as ominously high. A comparison of the two shows that it's not race, but environment and ethos that are the most compelling factors. The components involved are complex; but turning a blind eye or deaf ear to these maladies because they're racially charged won't ameliorate, much less solve, these festering social conundrums.
If the unexamined life is not worth living then the same is equally true of culture and society. Felix Frankfurter may have been a brilliant jurist, but he was witless when he said that "law is concerned with external behavior and not the inner life of man." For what more affects external behavior, good or bad, than one's inner life? Thoughts harden into attitudes and actions are the progeny of these attitudes. In 1965, a massive power failure on the east coast occasioned no rioting. As a result, police procedure made no attempt to address the problem of riots during power failures. Fast-forward 12 years later: The demographics in New York City are largely unchanged when another power failure ignites an orgy of looting and criminality. What changed? I would argue a social welfare mentality indifferent to family structure, a conspicuous expectation of entitlement and a vocabulary of victimization, which, in challenging and unexpected circumstances, undermined lawful restraint.
These conclusions can be debated, sautéed, chewed upon and if necessary spit out. The discussion, however, cannot be ignored. Society can't afford to have yet another generation of our urban poor at risk for violence, illiteracy, desperation, hopelessness and penury. That would be cruel and unjust; it would be irresponsible; it would be intolerable; indeed, it would be nothing less than criminal.

While parking around Long Island Rail Road train stations is typically a challenge, even on a regular work day, the holidays create more of a struggle for commuters in search of parking spots. LIRR spokesman Salvatore Arena said that ridership between Thanksgiving and New Year's Day increases by at least 10 percent; last year it was by 12 percent. Though the MTA is adding more trains to the schedule, that doesn't ease the parking situation, which is operated not by the LIRR, but by individual municipalities in each town.
"Every station is different," Arena said. "A good part of our parking is in the hands of the locality. They set the rules essentially."

This year, give your kids a creative outlet that allows them to decorate pumpkins safely (no blade involved), and with a variety of facial expressions and choices, courtesy of the lovable icon Mr. Potato Head.
Kids can create pumpkin personalities with 12-13 interchangeable parts, from hats to eyes and noses that are packed with Halloween spirit. Choose to decorate the toy pumpkin base that comes with the kit, or try applying the pieces to a real pumpkin (not included).
Available online at Chasing Fireflies, a children's boutique with an array of kid-friendly Halloween goodies, you can choose from two pumpkin decorating kit options: witch and pirate, to delight both boys and girls all Halloween-long. The Witch kit comes with a broomstick, witch's hat, and mystical grin, while the Pirate kit comes with appropriate nautical garb, from a typical pirate's moustache and eye patch, to a festive hat and sword.
The "Witch Pumpkin Decorating Kit" is available for $16, while the "Pirate Pumpkin Decorating Kit" is available for $12.

DOE Awards $16 Million to Small Businesses
The Department of Energy awarded 88 grants to small businesses in 28 states to develop clean energy technologies with a strong potential for commercialization and job creation.
These awards, totaling over $16 million in investments, will help small businesses with promising ideas that could improve manufacturing processes, boost the efficiency of buildings and generate electricity from renewable sources. Companies competing for these grants were encouraged to propose outside-the-box innovations to meet ambitious cost and performance targets.
The small businesses receiving the awards are located in 28 states: Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Missouri, Montana, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Virginia, and Washington.
Technologies among the 88 projects receiving awards include LED lighting, solar energy, wind energy, geothermal energy, biomass energy and advanced manufacturing.
Funded by the Department's Office of Electricity Delivery and Energy Reliability, Office of Environmental Management, Office of Fossil Energy, Office of Nuclear Energy, and Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy through the Energy Department's Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) and Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) programs, the awards are for Phase I and Fast Track (combined Phase I and II) work. That means that the new projects will go toward exploring the feasibility of innovative concepts that could be developed into prototype technologies.

We took a weekend jaunt up to Barcelona, Spain this weekend. After we drove to Sevilla, flew to Reus, took a train to Barcelona and then a taxi to our hotel and unloaded our belongings, we took off for a quick snack to fill our hungry, well-traveled bellies. Finally we were set to begin our Barcelona sightseeing adventures. Our first stop: La Sagrada Familia. La Sagrada Familia means "The Holy Family". It's a church that was designed by a famous architect, Antoni Gaudi (Gow-dee). Gaudi's works are planted beautifully all across the city of Barcelona. I became beyond intrigued with his work once I started researching things to do in Barcelona and discovered the buildings that he has designed. Hopefully by the end of this post, you'll see exactly why.
The exterior of the church is equally meaningful as it is astonishing. The handicraft and work behind sculpting such a masterpiece is mind-boggling. La Sagrada Familia began construction in the year of 1882 and has yet to be completed. That's a total of 120+ years of construction. The completion is hoped to be in the year 2026; exactly 100 years after the mastermind behind the whole project passed away.
The outside of the church displays scenes from the Bible. Some of the church is partially covered by scaffolding for construction, but it is still a sight to be seen.
On one side of the church holds the Nativity Scene. This was the first project finished and the only one that Gaudi lived to see completed.
The interior, however, is what seriously took my breath away.
Looking at all these photos takes me back to the feeling I got when I looked at this beautiful creation the first time. I cannot believe that there is a place this beautiful. This was probably my very most favorite place that we went to the whole trip. There is no place like La Sagrada Familia!

The Feed brings news (and a walk-by confirms) that Blue Bottle Co. will be bringing its cult beans to Soho next week (on Tuesday, the store tells us). Were informed that the operators of Caffetteria Soho will be Bryan Waites (former executive chef of the Mint Plaza Blue Bottle Coffee in San Francisco) and his sous-chef, Aaron Nice. The Time Out blurb promises New Orleans- (cold-brewed with chicory) and Kyoto- style, the latter dispensed from two three-foot-tall slow-drip units, as well as the countrys first mechanical-paddle GB5 La Marzocco machine.

- Good experienceOccasionalDinerDined on 10/4/2014I'm not sure if there's a "lunch" menu but we went there for lunch on a Saturday and ordered a pasta dish each - seafood fettuccine & cheese stuffed pasta pockets with cream sauce. Delicious and I've eaten a lot of Italian food in my life. Service was friendly and welcoming although the hostess had forgotten to turn the "We're Open" sign over so we originally thought it was closed although we had made reservations. Luckily she noticed us standing at the door and came to open it for us. I did have to ask for my water to be refilled the 1st time and she came by automatically later to refill it the 2nd time. There were only five people in the restaurant so it wasn't busy at all. Overall very nice experience and would recommend.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Excellent find!AriGDined on 1/18/2014My wife and I don't get a lot of 'date time' away from the business of raising kids and are always looking for nice places to go to. We were treated with respect and really showed her passion for the food and the restaurant itself. She recommended some fantastic wine for me (Pavilion Cab/Shiraz is ridiculously good!). The waitress knew we were here for a nice 'date' evening and adjusted how often she came to us accordingly. She gave us space and we did not feel rushed at all. The food was excellent quality, portions were generous.. While we definitely paid good money for it we truly felt we got great VALUE. This, combined with the excellent service means we will be returning.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Neighbourhood FindLizKDined on 10/4/2013That's Italian is a great spot to have a delicious bite to eat. It's one of those places that is unassuming from the outside, but quite lovely on the inside.

- So, So....JohnDined on 8/4/2013For the price, I would expect a more professional service, we didn't feel welcome, service wasn't personable, food was so, so. Sorry, got to try harder. Internet ranking can only work in your favor once, after given a chance, you need to prove yourself, but unfortunately, I have dined in many places, paid same or lower price, but received a much more professional service with a much more attractive food presentation.

- Delicious, but you have to wait,LizsewsDined on 7/26/2013Our first time at That's Italian may be our last. We were there last Friday ( july 26) at 7:30 and left at 10:15. Food was fantastic, but service was very poor, even though we told the waitress it was our first visit. We felt under appreciated, like our business didn't matter because some other more familiar groups of people were there. Too bad, new customers may become repeat customers.Special Features:
- Worth a viist2luvitalianfoodDined on 7/7/2013We attended That's Italian for a visit on Sunday night. the food was great but thee service was limited. the restaurant was fairly busy with only 2 waitresses who tended to ignore us.

Our food arrived in a reasonable amount of time and was hot and fresh tasting. Good value for the price. Certainly worth a return visit but, for me, unlikely as washrooms are not accessible.Special Features:
- Food was okay. Service wasOpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 3/1/2013Food was okay. Service was too slow for a business lunch. Not a place you can afford to be at during a lunch hour if you have to be back on time.Special Features:
- The food was very good, however,OpenTable Diner Since 2013Dined on 2/28/2013The food was very good, however, they had a special menu that offered Tiramisu as one of their dessert choices, yet they were all out of it. Not to mention this is not the first time it happened. I was shocked because this was a Thursday night and it was not at all busy inside. The friend I was dining with told me that this happened when she went around Christmas time and the shocking part was that they had an early dinner reservation and the restaurant still did not have any of their special homemade tiramisu...I guess they should not advertise it if they don't have it. My other concern was that they had no change, they had to ask another customer to break my twenty.Special Features:
- Never disappointsOpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 2/21/2013Celebrated my bday. Have been there many times and never have been disappointed. Will definitely be back again....and again.Special Features:

LINCOLN, Calif. (AP) - Fire officials say the risk of an explosion at a rail car fire in Northern California has increased after the propane tank that is burning showed signs of melting and coming apart.
California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection spokesman Daniel Berlant told KCRA-TV on Wednesday that firefighters have not been successful in cooling the 29,000-gallon tanker with water. The fire began a day earlier at a Northern Propane Energy yard in Lincoln, a city of 40,000 north of Sacramento.
Berlant says a crack in the tanker would greatly increase the possibility of an explosion.
That possibility has led to the evacuation of thousands of homes in the area. Fire officials say an explosion could cause a fireball that consumed blocks and hurl large pieces of metal up to a half mile away.
