Things to do in Zürich
Le Corbusier's last building - a glass-and-steel structure that looks like a Mondrian painting in 3-D - has now been transformed into a museum. Completed after his death in 1965, it's now named after the patron who commissioned it. It houses Le Corbusier's sketches, lithographs, and writings.
Bischofberger was Jean-Michel Basquiat's European dealer, so it's no surprise to find an exhibition of the artist's collages and paintings.
Sprüngli serves its iconic hamburger shaped Luxemburgerli. The shop also has one of the best deals in Zurich, 10 truffles for $7.
Within this 12th-century cathedral the soaring nave is magnificent, and the interior is spare -aside from the jewel-toned chancel windows, designed in 1933 by Augusto Giacometti, Alberto's second cousin.
The convivial wine bar hosts frequent tastings and the occasional art show. Order a glass of Blauburgunder - what the Swiss call Pinot Noir - and settle in on a window banquette for some people-watching.
Owner Ursula Weber sells beaded necklaces, gold-threaded scarves, embroidered pillows, and other treasures from northern Africa, the Middle East, and Asia.
The department store carries a plethora of cool Swiss flag–branded tote bags, diaries, and other paraphernalia.
The museum features a cutting-edge collection of photography, paintings, and design
This gallery, which has satellites in London and New York, represents everyone from sculptor Louise Bourgeois to Swiss video artist Pipilotti Rist.

In Vietnam, a call for opennessAugust 6, 2014 11:20 PM
Share with others:
HANOI, Vietnam -- Vietnam's communist leadership is facing calls for greater political openness from a group of ruling-party members dissatisfied with how the nation handled tensions in recent months with China, its dominant trading partner.
Sixty-one members of the Southeast Asian nation's Communist Party, including a former ambassador to Beijing, urged in an open letter that the leadership "develop a truly democratic, law-abiding state," allow for greater freedom of political speech and "escape" from its reliance on China.
The document builds on past efforts to introduce pluralism in a unified Vietnam that has never had democracy, after a group last year including ex-government officials distributed an alternative draft constitution calling for "political competition."
A public perception that Vietnam had been dealt a setback in the latest in a series of confrontations with China in recent decades over maritime claims provided a backdrop for increased domestic criticism.
"It indicates to the leadership that people are increasingly getting more courage to speak up," Alexander Vuving, a security analyst at the Asia-Pacific Center for Security Studies in Hawaii, said in a phone interview. "They are willing to act."
The July 28 letter adds pressure on the government after China's moving of an oil rig into contested territorial waters set off a wave of Vietnamese nationalism and deadly anti-Chinese riots in May.
Vietnam's leadership didn't publicly acknowledge the letter.

One Nutty Date
From EatingWell: November/December 2007
Financial advisor Linda Croley was inspired by childhood memories of a family treat when she created these peanut butter-date cookies. "I get a great feeling when I bite into these cookies and think of my family who are around me today, and those whose memories I'll always cherish," says Croley. Once you try them, you may never make an ordinary peanut butter cookie again.
Makes: 3 dozen cookies

Nutrition Profile
Diabetes appropriate | Low carbohydrate |View Our Nutrition Guidelines »
One Nutty Date
- 1 cup packed light brown sugar
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1/2 cup smooth natural peanut butter
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 8 ounces pitted dates, chopped
- 1/3 cup walnuts, chopped
- 8 ounces white chocolate chips, (see Tip)
- 1 tablespoon canola oil
- Preheat oven to 375°F.
- Beat brown sugar, butter, peanut butter and cinnamon in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed until well mixed. Add egg and vanilla; continue beating until well mixed. Reduce speed to low. Add flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt; beat until well mixed, scraping the sides of the bowl as necessary. Stir in dates and walnuts. Refrigerate the dough for at least 1 hour before baking.
- Use a small scoop (1 3/8- to 1 1/2-inch) and drop balls of dough 2 inches apart onto an ungreased baking sheet. (If you do not have a scoop, shape the dough by hand into 1- to 1 1/4-inch balls.) Gently press each ball to flatten slightly.
- Bake the cookies until the edges are lightly browned, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
- To decorate: Place white chocolate and oil in a small microwave-safe bowl and microwave on Medium, stirring every 30 seconds, until the chocolate is melted and smooth. To drizzle, dip a fork in the chocolate then wave it over a cookie to create a lacy finish (see Variations). Let the chocolate set for at least 1 hour. Variations: Instead of drizzling, dip the top side of the cooled cookies in melted white or dark chocolate and sprinkle with chopped walnuts.
Tips & Notes
- Make Ahead Tip: Prepare the dough (Step 2), cover and refrigerate for up to 1 day. Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
- Tip: Most brands of white chocolate chips are actually not white chocolate at all; they're called "white morsels" and contain no chocolate. We like Sunspire (made without partially hydrogenated oil), found in natural-foods stores or online at sunspire.com, and the Albertsons/ Shaw's store brand, Essensia. Eight ounces chopped pure white chocolate can be used in place of the chips.

Looks-wise the W910i is much more sedate than previous Walkman phones, which tended to be a very bright, almost radioactive orange. The colour of our review model is what Sony Ericsson refers to as Noble Black. Ascribing nobility to a handset is a bit much, but it does look elegant without being boring. For those who like a bit of colour, it's also available in "hearty" red.
The profile is slim and streamlined at 12.5 millimetres. Given the tapered design of the bottom, the charging and headphone port has been moved from the base of the handset to the left side. This is fine for juicing up your W910i or loading it with PC data, but plug in the headset and the phone is over a centimetre wider in your pocket.
The non-number keys are unusually small, especially in light of the ample space surrounding them. A circular silver five-way navigation key is flanked on either side by teeny send and end buttons that are crammed right up against the soft keys. They look small enough to cause problems, but fared surprisingly well during testing. Even more miniscule are the power and Walkman keys hiding on the top of the handset -- blink and you'd miss them.
The W910i uses Sony's Memory Stick micro, which slots into a socket on the right. Included is a nifty USB adaptor so you can remove the card and plug it into a USB key rather than connecting your phone to a PC for data transfer.
The standout features on the phone are -- of course -- music-related. There's a new menu style for browsing your multimedia, which will look familiar if you own a PS3 or PSP. A2DP allows you to stream songs wirelessly to a pair of funky earcans. In Walkman mode you can move the phone around to switch tracks -- tilting it to the right will go to the next track and tilting to the left will take you back. If you want to shuffle your tracks you can activate the randomise function by shaking the handset like a Polaroid picture.
As well as organising your tunes by artist, title and album, the W910i sorts them visually by mood, representing each track as a dot on a Cartesian plane not seen since the days of plotting parabolas in year nine maths. The x and y axes have been relabelled sad-happy and slow-fast, and you can navigate among the dots, selecting tracks to include in an emotion-driven playlist. This makes it easy to create song sets for every occasion, from post break-up anguish to getting ready for a night on the town.

"I ordered these on a Wednesday afternoon and received them on Saturday evening! Super fast!! Pleasantly surprised because I chose regular shipping of one week or more. The quality of the card stock is good, and the printing is crisp and clear. We chose to have a picture of our son on the back of the card, and it printed terrifically on the matte card. I'd order these again, and highly recommend this design as an alternative to the traditional red and gold designs for red egg and ginger invitations. Very cute and modern."
"Card turned out really cute...everyone complimented it! I had a scrap booking tool that makes rounded edges so rather than paying extra for it, I just stamped all the edges myself to make them rounded & definitely made them look more finished. The printing & shipping was super fast & I received them 5-6 days earlier than originally quoted."
"The design on this card is just perfect. Its delicate and simple, yet colorful and girly. It fit perctly with the theme for my little ones birthday. Everyone thought it was beautiful."
"I love being able to customize the products on this site. Whether font, color or placement, its nice to have that option. The quality of the projects I order are always great quality and I love being able to order the products when I have the chance!"
"Ordered this card for my daughters 1st birthday. I picked the option of having Tiny Prints mail the cards for me and the price was very reasonable and they arrived faster than expected! Great quality and very cute!"

NASA Will Crowdsource Its Photos of Mars 66
from the find-waldo-win-a-shuttle-main-engine dept.
We've improved Slashdot's video section; now you can view our video interviews, product close-ups and site visits with all the usual Slashdot options to comment, share, etc. No more walled garden! It's a work in progress -- we hope you'll check it out (Learn more about the recent updates).
There's a similar thing going on for some time on ESA Mars Express mission, where public is invited to participate in obtaining, processing, etc. of images taken with a camera that was meant originally to observe Beagle separation.
http://www.esa.int/esaMI/VMC/index.html [esa.int]
Kudos to the first person to find the Beagle2 (or the crater it made)
Sort of like finding Waldo on a much bigger scale.
Is it really all that useful having 100,000 people with zero technical experience or knowledge looking at these pictures?
We might be able to identify gross features, but the nuances will be glossed over entirely.
But if it doesn't require any technical knowledge, NASA should start pumping out lesson plans and get school kids do the bulk of the dirty work.
Are they trying to suggest that only about 1% of Mars is obviously interesting to Martian scientists? There's really nothing else they know they want to look at? Okay sure, the PR could be a good thing and they might get some cool suggestions, but honestly:
- Pictures of the rovers
- Pictures of the canals
- Pictures of the mountains
- Pictures of the ice caps
Outside of that, everything is just "more red sand." Nobody really cares which small portion of the planet it is as long as they get cool desktop photos in a handy resolution (1680x1050, please). Do your own damn work and figure out what deserves to be photographed.
What Einstein came up with "crowdsourcing"? I put that up there with "core competencies", "stakeholders", and "rightsizing" as jargonny business babble. If I were an evil overlord, I would instantly put to death any underlings who dared utter those terms in my presence.
Yes, I think I need a hug.

Medvedev's Olympics threat
Cahal Milmo
Cahal Milmo is the chief reporter of The Independent and has been with the paper since 2000. He was born in London and previously worked at the Press Association news agency. He has reported on assignment at home and abroad, including Rwanda, Sudan and Burkina Faso, the phone hacking scandal and the London Olympics. In his spare time he is a keen runner and cyclist, and keeps an allotment.
Tuesday 30 March 2010
The Russian President Dmitry Medvedev has marked the raising of the Olympic flag over Sochi, the venue for the 2014 Winter Games, by threatening criminal proceedings against his country's sporting administrators.
Russia endured their worst ever Winter Olympics in Vancouver last month, winning fewer gold medals than the Netherlands. The government has responded, amid allegations of corruption, by ordering an investigation into how a pre-Games budget of £78m was spent.
Mr Medvedev said: "The audit chamber is checking the use of budget funds aimed at preparing for the Vancouver Olympics. According to the results, we will decide what to do with the [report] – just to hear it or send it to the prosecutor's office."
Since the Games a number of leading officials have resigned following a public outcry over their sixth place in the medals table, including the Deputy Sports Minister.

Go ahead: Spatchcock that chicken
Need a fast way to cook a whole chicken?
You just need a sharp pair of kitchen shears to cut out the backbone. That way, you get to flatten out the bird on the grill or pan.
And then, folks, you're spatchcocking.
Marisa McClellan explains the process at Table Matters. Check it out here.

Seduced by Flesh
lol agree with that... hey u forgot the main character kasai wat of yusuke?
he is second funniest in the anime
I wasnt really a fan of Yusuke. I loved his voice actor though. His character? Never really appealed to me. and I loved botan! And umm.. Koenma, and Genkai! Hell, most of the characters BUT Yusuke made me happy. I loved the villians as well.
Seduced by Flesh
eh, the last arc was iffy, you know, the whole his dad being a demon king..............whatever, lol. The rest of the series was grrrrrreat though. Well developed and good action.
Attitude of AO MODS, according to beast
Because they have obtained that level they are arrogant. You have to kep in mind when you talk about these guys they are kind of dorks who probably didn't excel at much and this is their only outlet to flex their muscles. Their egos would suffer no less so the the forum suffers some more. Watch one way or another they will probably repond to this post with a threat. But there are better forums out there.

ARRL NC Section Newsletter
February, 2015
Greetings to all Hams across North Carolina from Karl W4CHX, your ARRL NC Section Manager!
NORTH CAROLINA QSO PARTY (3/1) – The North Carolina QSO Party (NCQP) will be held on Sunday, March 1st, from 10:00 AM to 8:00 PM EST (1500 UTC, March 1st to 0059 UTC, March 2nd). The goals of the NCQP are for out-of-state Hams to make contacts with NC Hams; and, for NC Hams to activate as many NC counties as possible and make contact with everyone, including other NC Hams. The NCQP is a friendly, low-pressure event, which provides a great opportunity for Hams to gain experience with contesting. For more information on the North Carolina QSO Party, see http://www.rars.org/ncqsoparty/
ASSISTANCE NEEDED: SANDBLAST RALLY 2015 (3/7) – The following request for assistance was received from Bard Morris, WB4MMG, Mitch Barbato, KX4MB, and Tim Slay, N4IB: "Sandblast Rally 2015 is fast approaching and we are searching for Ham Radio volunteers to help run the rally. Sandblast Rally is one of the largest rallies in North America. Rally is a unique motorsport that uses road legal cars that are highly modified to race on public roads that have been closed for the event. Have you ever had a favorite section of road that you liked to drive quickly? Have you ever wondered how fast you could go if there were no speed limit, and no one else on the road? That's exactly what we get to do! The best part for us is that it is conveniently located in Cheraw, SC. Volunteers are assigned to positions ranging from Marshals, which monitor sections of the road to make sure no one accidently drives on course, to Start and Finish Controls that start the cars and record the finish times. In many of the positions you will have the very best seat to watch the race! Volunteers will receive a complimentary T-shirt, lunch and dinner, and will be entered in a raffle to win a Yaesu FT-8800 radio. Ham volunteers are responsible for all the communications for the rally and are integral to the successful operation of the event. To find out more about volunteering for Sandblast Rally 2015, please contact Mitch Barbato, KX4MB at mitch at kx4mb dot net, or visit the Sandblast Rally website at www.sandblastrally.com" Thanks to Brad Morris, WB4MMG; Mitch Barbato, KX4MB, Vice President, Mecklenburg Amateur Radio Society; and, Tim Slay, N4IB, Assistant Section Manager and Affiliated Club Coordinator, for providing this information!

ARISS CONTACT PROPOSAL WINDOW FOR 2016 NOW OPEN – The Amateur Radio on the International Space Station (ARISS) program is now accepting applications from formal and informal educational institutions and organizations in the US – either individually or working together – that would like to host an amateur radio contact with an International Space Station crew member between January 1 and June 30, 2016. The application window closes on April 15th. For further information, see http://www.arrl.org/news/ariss-contact-proposal-window-for-2016-events-now-open
ASSISTANCE NEEDED: 2015 CYSTIC FIBROSIS "EXTREME HIKE" (4/18) – The following request for assistance was received from Tim Slay, N4IB: "Do you enjoy combining Ham Radio public service and hiking? The 2015 Cystic Fibrosis "Extreme Hike" will be held on April 18th. Participants will walk a 30-mile section of the Appalachian Trail in a single day, crossing Avery, Mitchell, and Carter County (TN). Communications with five rest stops will be provided by members of the Mayland, Watauga, and Carter County (TN) Amateur Radio Clubs. But, with as much as 10 miles of rugged trail between rest stops, and little or no cell service, communications between rest stops is a big challenge. The event team could use some hardy volunteer Hams with HTs who would be willing to hike a portion of the trail during the event to help assure the safety of the hikers. If you're interested, contact Stephen Williams, KI4ZUI, at email@example.com." Thanks to Tim Slay, N4IB, Assistant Section Manager and Affiliated Club Coordinator, for providing this information!

The following (edited) report was received from Carl Starnes, W4EAT: "Keith Andrew, KK4LGM, sent an email on December 22, 2014 of an opportunity to warm-up for the Uwharrie Fun Run that the Stanly County ARC participates in each year. Keith is a member of The Friends of Morrow Mountain and was contacted about getting volunteers for a trail race on Saturday, January 3, 2015. The race was put together by The Friends of Morrow Mountain and Go Run Trails organizations. This event would have a 5K, 10K and a 1/2 marathon, and already had 90 runners signed up. By December 26th, Keith had 3 other club members volunteering. On December 30th (3:22 AM) Keith emailed information about aid stations we might staff. This was followed with a late evening email on December 31st suggesting places along the trails we might staff, since only 4 members had answered the call. Keith was familiar with the trails and where help might be needed rather than at aid stations. By January 2nd, Keith was down to just himself and 2 others. He issued the weather forecast with instructions to "dress appropriately". On January 3rd at 1:33, Keith sent the following: 'Hey everyone, I just got home from the Morrow Mountain Trail Race. First off, I want to thank William [Thomas] KI4JDA and James [Jarrett] KK4ZAL for coming out. Awesome job guys! After the event, I spoke to several of the organizers. They were very appreciative of our efforts and said they would love to have us back next year. I really don't see how they ran in the past without radio support. The weather was perfect. I came prepared for the worst, but only needed a light jacket. The rain held off, and it only misted here and there. Thanks again, James and William! Keith KK4LGM.' Keith was licensed in 2012. He didn't become involved in the Stanly Co ARC immediately, but he sure did a great job of organizing this event on short notice. He showed great skills and willingness to be involved and experience what Hams can do if / when needed. Thanks Keith. Great job! Carl Starnes, W4EAT, Stanly Co ARC, Stanly Co ARES AEC Digital." Thanks to Carl Starnes, W4EAT, Official Emergency Station, for providing this report!
The following report on a Scouting event that took place in November 2014, was provided by Betty Williams, KC2BFN: "On November 22nd, 2014, two members of the Greensboro Amateur Radio Association (GARA), Tom Bertolino, KB1P, and David Macchiarolo, AJ4TF, participated in a "Merit Badge College" for the Old North State Council (North Carolina) of the Boy Scouts of America. As merit badge counselors, Tom and David taught a class on the Boy Scouts Radio Merit badge. Since the Radio merit badge has strong amateur radio content, it was a natural fit for them, as they are both interested in promoting radio education and perhaps gaining a few new Hams along the way! Tom and David taught an all-day class to approximately 20 Scouts covering the requirements of the Radio merit badge. During the class, the Scouts were shown an operational Ham station and given the chance to make contacts on a local repeater and 20 meter band. At first, the Scouts were hesitant to talk on the radio, but after the first contact was made, David and Tom had more volunteers to talk than time allowed. Following the class, several of the Scouts stayed afterwards and demonstrated successfully some required elements of the Radio merit badge. All of the Scouts showed interest in the class and hopefully many will continue the process of completing the requirements for the merit badge. Tom and David have volunteered as Merit Badge Counselors so that any Scout can contact them and get assistance in completing the Radio Merit Badge. The requirements of the Radio merit badge are fairly detailed; it is not a "give-away" and requires the Scouts to have a good understanding of radio fundamentals. A Scout that completes this merit badge has an excellent chance of getting a good score on the Amateur Radio Technician exam and become a Ham!" Thanks to Betty Williams, KC2BFN, Public Information Officer, Greensboro Amateur Radio Association, for providing this report!
An email was received from Jim Johnson, KI4TAT, which included the following information: "MOCARS [Moore County Amateur Radio Society] is off to a fast start for 2015 with Winter Field Day Jan 24-25 and communications support for the Uwharrie Mountain Run February 7. More than 45 area Hams participated in the 2 events. Amateur radio looks forward to another exciting year enjoying the communications hobby and providing communications resources for local civic groups." Thanks to Jim Johnson, KI4TAT, an ARRL-trained Public Information Officer, for providing this report!

READY TO COPY SOFTWARE AVAILABLE FOR NTS TRAFFIC HANDLERS – The software program, Ready To Copy, developed my Lane Kendall, WK4WC of Mount Pleasant, is now available for use by NTS traffic handlers. Lane WK4WC was asked to provide information on Ready To Copy and here is his report: "Ready to Copy (RTC) is message management software for NTS traffic handlers. Radiogram text as well as received / sent information is stored in a database with automatic date time recording. The heart of the program is a free form editor much like Notepad. No individual text boxes to tab through. The RTC "check" feature formats the free form message with five words per line and compares the actual word count of the message to the check in the message preamble. Features include: small screen footprint and minimal computer requirements; station activity reports (SAR) available instantly; radiogram forms can be printed; clone feature for receiving book traffic; standard text (canned message) support; generates and tracks outgoing message numbers; internet call sign and phone number lookup as well as maps (when on line); and, NTSD features, import messages from AirMail 2000. The program was designed to be used in real-time, with the user typing as messages are received. However, some users prefer to take traffic on paper and transfer to RTC after the fact. Doing this is typically less effort than compiling a station activity report (from paper) each month. More information and free download at http://www.qth.net/wk4wc/rtc"
In the email communication accompanying his report, Lane WK4WC commented that, "….. I have been writing database management code for over 30 years. When I see data lying around I tend to try to organize it. I wrote RTC for my own use because the monthly station activity report was taking hours per month to compile. RTC proved to be so useful for me that I decided to share it with other traffic handlers." Thanks to Lane Kendall, WK4WC, Official Relay Station, Digital Relay Station, and NC Evening Net Manager, for developing the Ready To Copy software and providing his report; and, to Bill Morine, N2COP, Roanoke Division Vice Director and Dave Roy, W4DNA, Section Traffic Manager, for recommending this topic for inclusion in the NC Section Newsletter.

("Elmo") Bass, III, KB5WY (SK) of Monroe; Kenneth Westfield ("Ken") Boyd, K4DXA (SK) of Mint Hill, NC; and, Benjamin Bernice Phillips, Jr, K4CMI (SK) of Greensboro.

NTSB cites wind, pilot error in crash that killed Lidle
WASHINGTON -- A light wind was cited by federal investigators Friday for blowing a small airplane carrying Yankees pitcher Cory Lidle off course and into a New York City high-rise on Oct. 11.
The National Transportation Safety Board said the wind, coupled with the pilot's inability to turn sharply, forced the aircraft away from its intended path over the East River and into the building.
The airplane, which also carried flight instructor Tyler Stanger, struck the building and fell 30 stories to the street below. Investigators do not say whether they determined who was at the controls of the Cirrus SR20.
The report issued Friday said the airplane was flying along the East River between Manhattan and Queens when it attempted a U-turn with only 1,300 feet of room for the turn. To make a successful turn, the aircraft would have had to bank so steeply that it might have stalled, the NTSB said in an update on the crash.
Lidle and Stanger were making an aerial tour of Manhattan before flying back to California.
Though Stanger was an experienced pilot, Lidle was not.
Investigators found no problem with the propeller and engine, nor did they find any evidence of a fire or other damage while the airplane was in flight.
If the pilot used the full width of the river to turn, he would have had 2,100 feet, the NTSB said. Instead, the pilot was flying closer to the middle of the river, leaving a smaller margin for error, the staff report said.
Two days after the accident, the Federal Aviation Administration ordered small, fixed-wing planes not to fly over the East River unless the pilot is in contact with air traffic controllers.
Small planes could previously fly below 1,100 feet along the river without filing flight plans or checking in with air traffic control. The FAA said the rule change -- a temporary one -- was made for safety reasons.
The NTSB's update outlined factual information about the crash, but did not conclude what the probable cause of the crash was. The full board will likely vote on a ruling at a later date.

Went to Sonia's looking for some good normal chunky soup. Elsewhere was all fancy soups. Hadn't been here for a while. Very busy but not disappointed. Luvly hot minestrone soup with 2 slices of homade bread and butter. Coffee very good too.
Nice location next to the river, friendly service, ans good food, which isn't expensive. Can get pretty busy, also open at night as a restaurant.
went there a few weeks ago
cakes and scones was quite nice,
good friendly staff and quite reasonable prices
needs a good clean up though
What can I say?! Fantastic food and great value for money along with great service with a smile. Fantastic views of the river made the day complete! I'd happily return all the way from Edinburgh.
Lovely location, right on the river and easy access as there is a large car park just along from the cafe! The food is brilliant and great value! Myself and friends go nearly every Saturday for lunch as the food is brilliant! It's lovely for lunch ( I'd recommend the Sonia's Special pasta dish) dinner or just a coffee and...
Just situated off the Sanbed in Hawick you will find a nice little restraunt that has a good range of food options and some nice home baking, food is good average fair nothing high class but plentiful and piping hot, staff are friendly and the place is very clean and tidy. There seems to be an outside eating area but...
Sonia's is a great local cafe which always has good value for money dishes ranging from panins to pastas. The homemade steak pie is highly recommended. Friendly staff, nice atmosphere and nice views of the local River Teviot from the cafe.
This was our second visit to this lovely bistro. The setting is just lovely and we saw 4 unusual types of bird in half an hour! The food is excellent and the service too, all done with a pleasant and helpful manner along with lovely smiles from the young staff. There is a good variety of light or heavier snacks/meals...
Went with friends. Had lasagne but nothing like lasagne. Very clean and great views over river. Friends meal was good.
Great place for lunch, particularly recommend the home made scones, cakes etc. They also do great toasted sandwiches with great chips!

Rated 3.3 out of 5 by 842 reviewers.
Rated 4 out of 5 by Doneric excellent relation of price to quality very happily surprised, the hotel was very comfortable, clean, excellent climate control in room. Staff was friendly. Amenities were basic but a very fair tradeoff for the price (does one really need a minibar?). I would happily stay there again. Taxi availability was very important and they were always ready. January 12, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by McLovin00 Great for visiting Philly My wife and I booked a last minute room here on our weekend to Philadelphia and were very pleasantly surprised. The Sheraton is going through some renovation, so there were some scaffolding and construction going on, but overall the changes look great. The hotel is in an excellent location, walking distance to area museums including the art museum. It's a short walk to area restaurants and a short cab hoop to night life and Old City. We had a junior suite which faced South. It was spacious, very comfortable bed, had a nice sitting area with fridge, and had great views. It was surprisingly quiet as well. The front desk was very nice and I observed a night desk person be very patient with a drunk patron. For SPG members with status, there is a concierge lounge on the 26th floor which offers free breakfast, and I believe some apps in evenings on certain days. The free stuff is ok, but the view from the room is worth a visit. Overall exceeded expectations, and would visit again! August 12, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Bbbbiiilll Visiting Phillie! Was in town for a meeting and to attend the rugby game between USA Eagles and the New Zealand Maoris. Hotel location provided great access to downtown attractions - museums, parks, historic buildings, and a variety of restaurants and pubs. Great hotel, friendly staff. Clean room, comfortable bed. Great stay! November 11, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Samsky1072 Great place to stay & great service! Stayed here on business & I couldn't have had an easier or more pleasant stay. Extremely friendly staff from check-in to Club Lounge. Clean room, comfortable bed, incredible view! The only downside was the parking garage had some missing ceiling panels & I was afraid that something would fall/leak on my car. October 29, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by GeorgiaPeach14 Outstanding Housekeeping Service Due to a misunderstanding, my wife & I left several items in a hotel room drawer when we checked out, not realizing it until we were at the airport. The Housekeeping staff did a fantastic job locating it quickly, then mailing it promptly to our home. Very professional and caring. We are sincerely grateful. December 19, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Sandybeach14 Great Staff Pleasantly surprised how gracious your staff are. Check in was great with Avril. Francis the bellman noticed we were standing and waiting to speak to the concierge. He jumped right in and offered his assistance which WOWED me. All the employees that we came into contact with were personable. Thank you! March 17, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by T07312014 Facilities and service not commensurate with price Spacious and reasonably responsive front desk staff. BUT: No bath mat 1st day (maids forgot?), tea bags not replenished in time, no safe nor mini refrigerator/cooler in room at such a high room rate. The breakfast restaurant staff seemed stressed and unresponsive. August 7, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Loveall Somewhathappy I have stayed at this Sheraton for a few years, especially around the Xmas holiday. Why are there No refrigerators in the rooms. Also what is the additional $50.00 charged on my account. What is it for and why. My bill was $265.00 total, but what is the additional $50.00 for, please explain. Thank you. January 2, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by LibrarianTex Great location This is a great place to stay to see downtown Philly sights and to attend a convention. The staff is one of the best we have ever enjoyed. There are some maintenance issues that need attention, but there are most places. No hot tub, but one of the best workout facilities we have ever found in a hotel. January 30, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by USNA2012 Army /Navy Football Weekend Stayed there because the team was also staying @ this hotel. The experience was great except the service in the bar / lounge was awful. Not enough staff working to handle the crowd which was unacceptable being the host hotel for the Navy team. The service was consistently poor on Friday and Sat night, December 12, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by jean69 The Room I would like to express my concern regarding the room. The carpet needed a good vacuum cleaning or a carpet change, the tub was not that clean and the T.V. (on certain channels) was fussy. Another then that, I enjoyed my stay at your hotel and will most definitely recommended to my family and friends. September 3, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Veteran001 Spent a week I was in Philadelphia for an international conference and this hotel is situated within a short walk to the conference center. Its staff was most helpful and professional in all my interaction with them and the hotel Itself appears to have been recently refurbished. My experience was most satisfying. October 25, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by bobs10 1st time visit and will return Truly a Rick Staub run hotel, great staff and hospitality experience. All friendly and helpful and on the ready service wise. Hotel undergoing transformation and I look forward to return to see the refresh. All services i encountered and requested were addressed in a warm and welcoming manner, thanks October 18, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by mmag Awesome! Great place to stay in Philly - 1st time there and this hotel made it great -Staff was helpful and made everything great - Mary, the Concierge was so nice and helpful! When we come back to Philly - staying here!! We were in town to see The Rolling Stones - a great weekend and the Sheraton helped that June 26, 2013
Rated 3 out of 5 by sadvisitor notimpressed The staff was very professional, polite and showed concern. The room was ok but nothing great. No refrigerator and I found this very surprising. I did not expect a kitchen but a refrigerator for drinks and medication. The sheets we like sand paper so wear PJ. Like I said the hotel is Ok, just OK. September 17, 2012
Rated 2 out of 5 by BIANCA Needs to work on customer service more! When i was there room service is amazing nice waitress, frontdesk are always busy and too hard to get a hold on, housekeeping are rude, the customer care when u dial 0 is not even pleasant on the phone or polite..over all poor service..worst customer service of all the sheraton ive stayed before. May 6, 2013
Rated 3 out of 5 by Umderwhelmed Nothing Special Renovations were taking place inside and out.When I checked into my room, the toilet seat was barely in place. I had to fix it myself. The vending machine on my floor (11) was not working. Drinks at the lobby bar were tremendously expensive. Overall just not one of my better Sheraton experiences. August 5, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Moms1 This location is great for museum visits. The staff is very professional and courteous. An upgrade of this property is underway, and will only improve the hotel features. Can't beat the location for walking to the Barnes Collection, and other parkway museums. September 1, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Fall65 Sheraton Center City West Good proximity to Barnes and other museums. Convenient access in lobby to Starbucks, a pleasant bar, and restaurant. Excellent service at desk. Rug in room needed cleaning/replacement, otherwise the room was well furnished/comfortable. Noisy guests wandering halls and trying doors in wee hours. October 28, 2013
Rated 2 out of 5 by nessayaya Overall Not Happy I was disappointed from the start. Rooms not ready, the desk said. Then there was not a room, the desk said, even though reservations made 3 months ago. dirty, not prepared for a convention group. 3 elevators not working. broke a glass in my room and it took 2 calls and 6 hrs to get addressed. July 23, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by ogbvj Great recovery We were in Philly for convention 7/20 to 7/26 2014..Had a little evacuation...BUT wow was everyone super duper accommodating:) We wanna take our family to Philly in 2015 and we would stay here again! Thanks to Carlton and Stella for just BEING awesome people! July 31, 2014
Rated 2 out of 5 by tarzan1 Not a good experience Check in service was awful. Over an hour late getting a room from promised check in time. When you pay for a room it looks like to me you should be able to check in on time. Check in staff rude. Room dusty on TV and furniture. No wash cloths in room. Food was good at the meeting facilities. May 28, 2012
Rated 3 out of 5 by svnanadiego DIsappointed I am very disappointed. It says before I made a reservation that there is a free wifi included, but when I got in the hotel, they were charging us $12.95 per hour. That is very misleading. We are planning to go back to Philadelphia next week but we are never going back to Sheraton again. September 28, 2013
Rated 2 out of 5 by Beantown Needs Updating Hotel feels very run down. Staff was very polite, but I did not feel like anyone asked how my stay was or recognized me as an SPG loyal member. My shower did not drain and I had to make it a point to tell the counter at check out, which was met with a thanks I will let maintenance know. March 8, 2013
Rated 1 out of 5 by SD1971 Hotel Stay This hotel was the worst Starwood I have stayed in. The maid service was terrible, my room didn't get fresh towels, no coffee replacements, left my room service tray in the room from the morning. The bedding horrible, two flat sheets that come off the bed. Horrible, horrible, horrible. June 3, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by MrTee Prmier Business Traveler's Location The unfailing positive attitude and friendliness of everyone at this property make my frequent visits to Philadelphia that much more pleasurable. Great location, clean and comfortable rooms, good food, and some of the best views in the City make this a sure hit for business travelers May 4, 2013
Rated 3 out of 5 by Carolyn no free wifi?!! can't remember last time I had to pay for wi fi access at a hotel, especially when it costs $200 a night to stay there. We had a reception the last night and water cost $4? Really?. Clean rooms, friendly staff. Long waits for an elevator . Can't take the stairs to the 20th floor... April 10, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Mazzy73 A little improvement, but overall very good. The location and room comfort was excellent. The room itself needed a little more attention. The bathroom tub was wet and had hair in it. The dairy creamer for the coffee was spoiled and solid. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Though they did not offer any SPG incentives.

Rated 3 out of 5 by rovingreporter Good hotel in great part of town Great for walking to the Franklin institute, Art Gallery and other smaller museums. 20 mins to independence square. CLose to highways and 5 minutes to University City. Overall satisfied with the time we spent here. The staff were very attentive to our needs and should be praised March 16, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Patze Mother's Day Walk For the last 3 years, my family have stayed @ the Sheraton in downtown Phila, Pa. This is a great group of people. Their focus is exceptional care from the front desk to the maintenance department. All our questions were addressed immediately. Thank you for the exceptional care, May 13, 2013

Three local high school students, Tom Racek of Abington Heights, Bradley Lochen of Lackawanna Trail and Wyoming Seminary student Lauren Larar, of Waverly, participated in State Sen. John Blake's Student Ambassador program.
Blake, D-Archbald, welcomed student ambassadors from 16 Northeast Pennsylvania high schools on Jan. 16 and gave them a firsthand glimpse of state lawmaking, citizenship and public service.
The students became ambassadors following a competitive application process. Blake said his first group of diplomats includes some of the region's finest pupils and future leaders.
Between now and May, Blake will help his ambassadors better understand the ins and outs of state government and what it means to devote their efforts to helping neighbors and communities live better lives.
The 16 ambassadors traveled to Lackawanna College and first learned about Lackawanna County history from Mary Ann Savokinus of the Lackawanna Historical Society. Later in the day, the future leaders heard from Blake's regional director, Larry West, and Lackawanna County Outreach Manager Fran Pantuso.
After lunch, the ambassadors traveled to Scranton City Hall, met newly installed Mayor Bill Courtright and toured city hall. President Judge Thomas Munley then shared his perspective of county government and the students were later introduced to the Lackawanna County Commissioners.
As part of the program, student ambassadors will later compete for college scholarship assistance through the completion of a critical thinking project and a presentation on a state-related legislative initiative of their choosing.

Three Westmoreland County roads have reopened in the past several weeks after about a half-million dollar PennDOT project to fix sliding land beneath them.
Portions of the three roads were fully closed and are now open, said Jay Ofsanik, a safety press officer for the state Department of Transportation.
Ofsanik describes the issue as a "slide underneath the roadway."
"It wasn't material that went on the roadway," he said. "It was the outer edge of the roadway that began to slide out from underneath."
Road surfaces weren't damaged because crews were sent in to fix the problem, he said.
In Murrysville, crews repaired the Route 22 westbound off-ramp to old Route 22 at the Allegheny County line. Some work remains there, Ofsanik said, but the road is open to drivers.
Penn Township's Trafford-Murrysville Road had repairs south of the turnpike bridge, which included relocating a waterline. The road had been closed since mid-September. It was expected to open by the end of October but was delayed because of the need to move the waterline.
Route 993 just east of Irwin Borough also underwent repairs.
Repair costs totaled $582,929. Carmen Paliotta Contracting Inc. was the contractor for the projects.
