The Fifth Grill & Terrace
Online Reservations
The only thing that was not great was that our food took so long to arrive. We got there at approx 8:30pm and although we didn't order right away, our food took so long to arrive - after 10pm. Way too late.
We were celebrating a friend's 50th birthday. The staff were very friendly and accomodating. The terrace is beautiful and provided the perfect setting for a lovely evening with friends. Altogether charming!
My wife and I have been to the Fith Grill and Terrace a couple of times and the food and service have been fantastic both times! Both times we were welcomed as soon as we arrived and were treated with excellent service the entire time. The elevator ride is an experience in itself and the elevator attendant was extremely friendly and welcoming. I have eaten at many restaurants but the steak I had the other night was the best steak I have ever had. The prices are a good based on the quality of the food and the overall experience but they do make it difficult for me to enjoy the restaurant on a regular basis. It does however make a nice treat for the occassional date night or special occassion. I would highly reccomend this restaurant!
Great but the music was so loud that we could not hear each other. The waitress kindly turned the speakers for us which did improve the ambience.
you enter the restaurant from a side alley off duncan below richmond street in the eastern edge of the Toronto 'entertainment district".You know you're entering something funky and just a little different when you take a ride up to the 5th grill in a small freight elevator. Service was fabulous! our waiter was attentive without being smothering! The chef provided some off-menu items like Lobster mashed potatoes- delicious! we did a mixed grill of duck,striploin and venison that was good, - grilled brussel sprouts with bacon -amazing!! The wine list was reasonable and should satisfy many tastes. pinot noir from languedoc -NON! Terrace does not = a view! If view is essential go elsewhere! Overall was very satisfied and will come back !
Without a doubt the best steak I've had. Very nice atmosphere and very nice staff. The elevator adds a nice touch. A little hard to find the first time(we were walking) but well worth it.
What a great choice for a special occasion. The excellent food is served by very attentive staff in an environment that has a very fine ambience. We will continue going back as each dining experience has been memorable.
We enjoyed the delicious Summerlicious menu on the roof-top terrace - the ambiance and wonderful music all added up to a very special evening out.
I felt instantly welcomed at The Fifth. The small private elevator is rustic and romantic, charming. The seating area is intimate and heavenly. I enjoyed my anniversary dinner there. The food was all so scrumptious, the amuse was delightful! We cleaned our plates and will be coming back for sure. The service was superb, I felt very looked after.
The atmosphere is outstanding and unique. Steaks were delicious but overpriced (including the fact that every side costs an extra >$7). The appetizer and main course was delicious but I wouldn't recommend the Fifth Sundae - nothing special about it, again especially for $12. Overall a very interesting place for special occasions.
Loved their menu for Summerlicious this year! The roof top patio has such a great atmosphere and the ride up in the old operated elevator is a nice touch. They have the service thing down and really make you feel special when you arrive and get you seated at your table. Food was very good. Wine list is good...not one of the top lists I've seen but adequate. Then after dinner you can stay for a couple drinks in the club downstairs if that's your thing. We had a great night and will definitely come back.
The food and overall experience was good. The whole group enjoyed their meals. My steak was a bit cold, but the food still tasted great. My only comment is about the social club. We were encouraged to stop by the social club on the way out. You come from a lovely restaurant and I was quite shocked regarding the type of crowd who was at the club. I was one of possibly 10 non-asian people in the whole club and the age group was quite young. I felt rather uncomfortable and lasted 10 minutes before I asked my friends to leave. I would have expected a bit more diverse crowd. I fully recommend the restaurant but if you are non-asian and over 30 the social club is definitely not recommended on a friday night.
This unique roof top restaurant had great ambiance both inside and out. My party included three girlfriends meeting for dinner on a Friday night. Two of us ordered the steak and one had risotto. The steak and veggies were the best I have had out at a restaurant, and not to forget the delicious lavender and lemon cheesecake. I would definitely order it again. Our pp dinner came to $100, which included a cocktail, glass of wine, salad, steak with veggies, dessert, cappuccino, taxes and tip. The service from the door man, to the hostess that greeted us, to elevator man, to our server was above and beyond, and for that reason alone I would recommend The Fifth Grill, along with the fab view of the city.
The service was incredible. Wait staff was always alert but never intrusive. They were enthusiastic and well-informed when answering queries about contents of the food. Food was delicious portions were more than adequate. In addition to our mains, we ordered 5 sides for 3 people. The sides were flavourful and seasoned with unusual but tasty herbs & spices. Drawbacks: too few dessert choices. Extra bonus: there is enough space between the tables that you do not feel too crowded.
We have been to The Fifth several times and have never been disappointed. The Summerlicious menu had some excellent choices and all four of us were impressed with what we ordered. The staff is friendly, competent and well-informed--from the first person we met at the door, to the elevator operator, to our waiter. We will return!
Great place to go before the theatre. Service was fast yet not rushed. Loved the converted warehouse and freight elevator ride up. Great service and very friendly staff. My food selections were delicious, my partner enjoyed his strip loin but he would have liked some potato with it rather than than squash). Desserts both delish! Definitely good dining with interesting ambience and a lovely staff. We will definitely return
This restaurant was just spectacular, service was amazing, food was great, the outside terrace was beautiful (even on one of the hottest days of this summer!) My partner and I loved the lift to get upstairs, the door opens to a beautiful dining area. Just wonderful, a must for everyone, can't wait to go back again!
Went there for Summerlicious dinner with a few friends. They were very accommodating! Their amuse bouche contained alcohol, and seeing that I was pregnant, they made a non-alcoholic one for me, which was very considerate of them!
I had brought friends who had never been or even heard of the Fifth Grill (besides Easy & Fifth) and the moment we entered I was elevated (yes, enjoy the pun) to a whole new status - just for choosing the Fifth. From the doorman, to the private and historic elevator, to the beautiful terrace, to the food to the staff.......An immediate success!
was an awesome experience at 5th. The freight elevator was a pleasant surprise to my date and the ride back down was something to look forward to in a good way. The service was the only reason the place would lose a knotch on. The waiter at our table wasn't really the social talking kind. Which did not bother me. But my date pointed it out several times and wasn't pleased. Huuge compliments to the chef on the steaks. Me and my date both got the fillet mignon med rare and hands down the best steaks we've ever had :). The ride back down the elevator was a special surprise with the elevator attendant performing a magic trick for us. And would def come again. Thank you for a beautiful table location as well.
As first timers here, we were not sure what to expect but from the moment we stepped into the space of the Fifth, we were warmly welcomed, greeted, and guided to the wooden elevator that would take us up to the restaurant. We were then taken to one of the "booth" seats on the Terrace which, in my opinion, is the best seat in the house! The view is a bit limited but the atmosphere is perfect. From the decorations and music to the lighting and ambiance, this restaurant is the perfect place for a long sit down to a romantic dinner. Oh, and the food matched the atmosphere in every way. The highlights were the duck terrine and the panna cotta which just melted in the mouth and our 10oz NY was cooked to perfection! Overall, a fabulous night!
Leah was awesome. She realized we we tourists and actually wrote down a list of places for us to see and eat at without us even asking. Great food, service and atmosphere. Chef enemy came out to meet us. Great experience.
We have been to the fifth many times and are yet to be disappointed. The charm starts with being escorted from the front desk to the service elevator with the operator who performs card tricks (who also remembered us from our last visit). You then have the option of the formal dining room or roof top terrace, both of which are very nice. The food and service are always first class. The Fifth is one of our favorite restaurant when visiting Toronto.
This was my second time dining at the fifth and first time on the terrace. Being "outside" was a little more noisier than I liked but still a good experience. Service is great!
I have been a fan of The Fifth for almost a decade now and it is always amazing. The service, the food and the ambiance are spectacular! You have to go and check it out if you haven't been. Ask to be sat on the Terrace and have a drink at the bar where Reed will make you an excellent concoction.
The Fifth is my favorite restaurant in Toronto. Either entertaining a large party or an intimate evening with my spouse, this is one great spot. We can always count on a superior dining experience!
Couldn't have asked for a better experience, Absolutely excellent!!!!
Perfect weather had us sitting out on the covered terrace enjoying the summer evening. Food was fabulous perfectly prepared and complimented by outstanding service. Entering through the alley, with a freight elevator trip up to the restaurant is an interesting difference and the card trick by the elevator attendant added to the fun experience. We'd highly recommend this to others and will be returning.
We truly enjoyed the Fifth. We have eaten there before and again it was a wonderful experience. I appreciate their consistency and attention to details. The staff was very accommodating. My husband and I will definitely go back.
I love the Fifth and the reason I have been going back with great regularity for a decade. Great date night restaurant
We had a group of 7 for dinner. Table was a good sized round table which great for conversation. Everything served was great, staring with cocktails continued with dinner and topped off with a really tasty dessert. Would definitely recommend.
So in short YES the Fifth is defiantly worth the money and the time. Me and my significant other had allot to celebrate about and we heard great things about this restaurant and we weren't disappointed. Our food was amazing, the service was top class. My NY strip was cooked just the was I liked it! All in all one of the better steak houses I have ever been in.
I had an excellent date night here! The food, wine, service, ambiance...everything was wonderful and exquisite! Slightly expensive so unfortunately it cannot be a weekly or monthly dining location, but definitely for special events it's where I'll be going!
What an excellent restaurant, everything was outstanding. I mentioned to our waiter that this restaurant is equal too or better than Chris-Ruth Steak House. We will go back, next time we visit Toronto...
I had a fantastic dinner and the venue was very unique.
Was just a bit loud but very good, Wine list was not impressive though! Would have liked more Cdn. wines!
This all-season rooftop place is great fun with very good food and service. Our visitors from out of town always enjoy the atmosphere and, of course, the elevator :-)
In a word.."OUTSTANDING"! Classy, comfortable, very enjoyable place with great food and service.
We went for an early dinner as we had concert tickets for later that evening. For most of the meal, we were the only two in the restaurant which allowed for us to receive the utmost in service! The food was simply divine from the Chef's Complimentary amus bouche to the delectable pumpkin cheesecake. My husband enjoyed the Gnocchi - a little too much lemon flavour for me - but he thoroughly enjoyed it. I had the Truffle Risotto which was so savoury and full of flavour! I didn't want the dish to end. We will definitely return for another dinner. The prices were on the higher end, but worth ever penny.
My wife and I very much enjoyed our anniversary dinner. The food was outstanding and we enjoyed the ambience and overall experience. Looking forward to our next visit.
We invited out of town guests from Germany to dine with us at and found to be our dinding experience outstanding. From the moment we approached the restaurant greeted by a wait person, the elevator ride, great service, meeting the chef at the table and outstanding meal, we and our guests thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience. Food was fabulous-especially asparagus soup, jumbo shrimp appetizer, mixed grill, new york steak-cooked to perfection and ending with the desserts. Only negative was that we found it quite pricey. All in all we would definitely return for a special occasion.
The Fifth Grill & Terrace was terrific. Fantastic service, nice ambience, and great food. Good variety in the wine list as well. Highly recommended.
We loved our evening at The Fifth Grill. We enjoyed everything about it from the moment we entered the quirky, quaint elevator until we left many hours later. We would definitely return for a special evening out. We had the mixed grill for 2 with the potato puree and the green beans. Everything was great and the portions were ample. Thanks for a great dining experience.
Great service and food. Menu somewhat narrow but food was excellent.
I have been to The Fifth Grill & Terrace multiple times and it never dissapoints me. The food, service and ambiance is always so perfect and romantic! Thank you for being such a gem!!
Fifth Grill & Terrace was a fabulous discovery. It's in an old building where the historic character was kept, truly enhancing the romantic aspect of this restaurant. It's beautiful inside - you take an old style elevator up, with an attendant, and the doors open to the dining room, where you are met by the attentive and friendly hostess (where you can check your coat). You are then led into the charming and romantic dining room - rustic, classy, with a fireplace and spacious so you are not dining on top of each other. The servers are wonderful, the food is fantastic and the wine list is great. This is a wonderful place for dates, dinner with your sweetie, small groups, or special occasions. Dress up, treat yourself and someone you love!
We chose the Fifth Grill and Terrace for our anniversary dinner on recommendation from a friend. The food was excellent. We had never dined here previously and were very impressed with the food. We requested a table by the window on the Terrace, figuring it would be a nice, romantic view and they complied with our request. It would have been nice to know in advance that a group function was also booked on theTerrace (Service). We may have asked to relocate. The group function was loud and took away from the Romantic aspect of our experience (ambience). Having said that, the Terrace is a great place for a group function.
I attended with my girl friend for her Birthday. She was quite impressed with the dinner as well as the service. It was a great hit and the ambience was perfect.
I was looking for a place for my wife and I to meet friends for dinner, and was running out of time - it was late Friday and I needed something for Saturday. I wanted something special, as it was a special occasion for us. Open Table to the rescue! Everything was excellent, and had a very cool vibe: from the special alleyway entry to the old freight elevator that took us to the rooftop enclosed patio; from the tasty amuse-bouche to the beautifully prepared mains; from the opening cocktail to the final port and cheese on the separate private deck area --- every detail was perfect. We will be back...and we'll bring others!
I found this restaurant on Opentable and liked the menu and images so I booked a table for my client christmas dinner. The ambiance is fantastic. You go up to the top floor of a beautiful old loft building via a old freight elevator that's been decorated in a baroque style. It is also manned with an entertaining host. the service was exceptional as was the food and willingness of the kitchen to answer food related questions. The wine list too was extensive and all encompassing. I highly recommend a visit no matter what the occasion. The best part was after dinner the elevator took us back down to a level that has dancing and a DJ, it was the perfect end to a perfect meal in beautiful surroundings.

Emeritus Professor Michael Clyne, one of Australia's foremost experts on and advocate for multilingualism, gave The Year of Languages Lecture on 19 August 2008 at Monash Uni.
"This year, the UN International Year of Languages, countries all over the world have been reflecting on their achievements in languages and what they could be doing better.
In Australia, we have seen the continuation of a public discourse which started the previous year, on the benefits of second language learning and the decline in language programs over the years.
I will argue that this discourse will remain on the surface if it does not take into account the linguistic diversity we are blessed with, and if we cannot overcome our pervasive monolingual mindset.
I will also suggest a different, more holistic way of thinking about the benefits of plurilingualism, that is the use of more than one language. "
As well as being Emeritus Professor at Monash University and an honorary professorial fellow at the University of Melbourne, Michael Clyne is a bilingual parent of a bilingual child and is a member of the Languages Action Alliance.

Rapiscan Systems Awarded Approximate $6 Million Contract from TSA
October 30, 2008 Torrance, CA
Rapiscan Systems, Inc., a leading global supplier of security inspection systems, announced today that it has been awarded an approximate $6 million contract by the United States Transportation Security Administration (TSA) for its Rapiscan RTT (Real Time Tomography) high-speed stationary gantry Computed Tomography (CT) baggage screening system.
The Rapiscan RTT is a baggage screening system that generates high-resolution 3-D X-ray images of passenger baggage to detect potential threats more accurately and at a higher speed than any currently available technology.
Rapiscan Systems president, Ajay Mehra, stated, "We believe the RTT system is a major advance over the CT-based baggage screening technologies that are currently deployed in US airports and elsewhere. Our stationary gantry design allows RTT to achieve speed and resolution that is unprecedented in legacy CT designs. This is the culmination of a significant engineering effort, so we greatly appreciate the support and confidence that the TSA has shown us."
Rapiscan RTT: A Break from Legacy CT Designs
The Rapiscan RTT system works unlike any legacy CT design. By eliminating the legacy designs moving gantry, the Rapiscan RTT captures images at several times the speed of legacy CT's, at higher resolution and with lower anticipated maintenance costs.
Rapiscan RTT Advantages Over Legacy CT Baggage Screening Systems
The Rapiscan RTT's radical design is expected to result in the following advantages over legacy CT systems:
Enhanced Threat Detection: The Rapiscan RTT's dramatically higher resolution potentially allows the system to more accurately detect a wide range of potential threats.
Lower Cost of Ownership: The Rapiscan RTT can lower the overall cost of ownership by: (a) anticipated lower maintenance costs with the elimination of a complex rotating gantry; (b) high throughput results in fewer machines necessary to handle a given volume of bags; (c) the system can be integrated inline with the existing baggage conveyor network without the need for costly modifications or reconfiguration.
About Rapiscan Systems

Cancers are due to HPV in men 80%.
Are due to hepatitis B and C.
And something we talked about on the show here before H pylori which is a bacteria in the stomach.
-- what do you do about this I'll tell -- -- the most important thing here is preventing the infection if you preventing infection.
You gonna prevent the cancer so we talked -- before about getting that HPV vaccine to young women.

2010 Census:
Overseas Enumeration Test Raises Need for Clear Policy Direction
GAO-04-470, May 21, 2004

In the 1990 and 2000 Censuses, U.S. military and federal civilian employees overseas were included in the numbers used for apportioning Congress. Currently, the U.S. Census Bureau (Bureau) is assessing the practicality of counting all Americans abroad by holding a test census in France, Kuwait, and Mexico. GAO was asked to (1) assess the soundness of the test design, and (2) examine what past court decisions have held about Americans' rights and obligations abroad.
Although the overseas enumeration test was designed to help determine the practicality of counting all Americans abroad, because of various methodological limitations, the test results will only partially answer the Bureau's key questions concerning feasibility, data quality, and cost. For example, one research questions asks, "How good is the quality of the data?" However, the Bureau will only measure item nonresponse, which indicates whether a person completed a particular question. As a measure of quality, it is far from complete. Similarly, although a key research objective was to determine the cost of counting Americans overseas, the Bureau's data will not inform the cost of conducting future tests or an overseas enumeration in 2010. Overall, the Bureau overstated the test's ability to answer its key research objectives. Overseas Americans have various rights and obligations to federal programs and activities. For example, Americans abroad are generally taxed on their worldwide income and can vote in federal elections, but are generally not entitled to Medicare benefits. There is nothing in the Constitution, federal law, or court decisions that would either require the Bureau to count overseas Americans, or not count this population group. As a result, Congress would need to enact legislation if it wanted to require the Bureau to include overseas Americans in the 2010 Census. Counting Americans abroad as part of the census would add new risks to an enterprise that already faces an array of challenges. Therefore, it will be important for Congress to decide whether overseas Americans should be counted as part of the census or counted as part of a separate survey or whether there are so many obstacles to a successful count regardless of the approach that the Bureau should shelve any plans for further research and testing. To the extent a second test is required, the Bureau will need to take steps to develop a more rigorous design.
Status Legend:
- Open
- Closed - implemented
- Closed - not implemented
Matters for Congressional Consideration
Matter: In order to give the Bureau as much planning time as possible, Congress may wish to consider coming to an early decision on whether the Bureau should be required to enumerate overseas Americans, and if so, whether they should be counted as part of the decennial census or by some other, separate data collection effort.
Status: Closed - Implemented
Comments: Congress has come to an early decision and will not require the Census Bureau to enumerate Americans living overseas for the 2010 Census. Given the complexities involved in counting Americans living overseas Congress does not wish to divert resources away from the stateside enumeration.
Matter: Should Congress desire an overseas count--be it part of the decennial census or a separate data collection effort--it may wish to consider telling the Bureau how the data would be used (e.g., for purposes of apportionment, redistricting, allocating federal funds, or a tally of the U.S. overseas population). This information would enable the Bureau to more thoroughly evaluate procedures and resources needed to meet Congress's specific requirements, and ultimately provide Congress with better information with which to gauge the feasibility of such an approach.
Status: Closed - Not Implemented
Comments: We recommended that Congress discuss with the Bureau how data collected on Americans living overseas will be used (e.g. apportionment, redistricting, allocating funds, or a tally). The recommendation is closed and not implemented because at this time, Congress does not wish to divert resources away from the stateside 2010 Census in order to collect data on Americans living overseas.

Shophouse and Good Stuff Eatery aim for openings in Georgetown
Posted by: Vanya Mehta in News, Vox Populi, tags: Food, Good Stuff Eatery, Shophouse, ZagatHaven't you always wanted a toasted marshmallow milkshake to follow your bowl of curried artisanal organic tofu? Well today's your lucky day! According to a Zagat blogpost, two restaurants, ShopHouse and Good Stuff Eatery, have plans to expand to Georgetown's M street.
ShopHouse, a Southeast Asian Kitchen, mimics "Asia's version of fast food" with an array of items that are "remarkably light and well-balanced," according to their website. The shop currently has a location in DuPont, and plans to open at 2805 M. St. NW later this summer.
The restaurant will replace Furin's, a diner that closed last July. Restaurant critics call ShopHouse the Asian equivalent of Chipotle, with an architectural model inspired by the traditional shophouses seen in urban parts of Vietnam, Singapore, and Thailand.
A burger joint on Capitol Hill, Good Stuff, reviewed on the Washingtonian's list of Cheap Eats 2011, "shows no signs of white-collar pretension." Owner Spike Mendelsohn, Top Chef alum, hinted at a potential opening in Georgetown two years ago. I think we're ready for the real deal, Mendelsohn.

This hostel is located in a fantastic neighborhood, La Condesa. It was very clean and modern (2 years old). My room had 4 beds with its own bathroom and shower. Right outside there were restaurants, bars, and cafes. I felt safe walking around this area in the day and even late at night. As much as I liked how clean it was, it lacked atmosphere. None. I think the capacity is 30 but don't think there was more than 5 during my stay. They could really use a bar to liven the place up.

The hostel itself was really nice. Unfortunately the service was a little frustrating. I booked my first night online with a friend and then emailed and advised staff I would be staying on 3 more nights before we arrived. When I went to pay the next day for these, the room rate was more than the advertised rate on Hostel World. As they barely speak english, the explanation I was given seemed unreasonable and I was forced to pay more than I had the night before for the same dorm and same bed.

The hostel and location were great. The staff however were not helpful. We got there before the 3pm check in & asked if we could leave our bags there until we got back at 3 but were told we couldn't even if we paid for it (even though they were storing others). When we came back at 3 a large group were just ahead of us. We asked if we could get the forms to fill in to get the process started, but were told to wait for a minute, but ended up waiting 20mins after the large group was done.

In a great location, right in the heart of La Condesa near to the restaurants and bars and also close to Patriotismo metro. Spotlessly clean with a relatively warm welcome. The breakfast is basic. They have a cool terrace where you can sunbathe and good internet access/wifi options. The only slightly weird thing is the fact that the bathrooms are basically part of the dorm room - difficult to explain, but there really isn't much privacy for showering/using the toilet.

Play Framework Cookbook
The Play framework is the new kid on the block of Java frameworks. By breaking
the existing standards it tries not to abstract away from HTTP as with most web
frameworks, but tightly integrates with it. This means quite a shift for Java programmers.
Understanding the concepts behind this shift and its impact on web development with
Java are crucial for fast development of Java web applications.
The Play Framework Cookbook starts where the beginner's documentation ends. It shows
you how to utilize advanced features of the Play framework—piece by piece and
completely outlined with working applications!
The reader will be taken through all layers of the Play framework and provided with
in-depth knowledge with as many examples and applications as possible. Leveraging
the most from the Play framework means, learning to think simple again in a Java
environment. Think simple and implement your own renderers, integrate tightly
with HTTP, use existing code, and improve sites' performance with caching and
integrating with other web 2.0 services. Also get to know about non-functional issues
like modularity, integration into production, and testing environments. In order to provide
the best learning experience during reading of Play Framework Cookbook, almost every
example is provided with source code. Start immediately integrating recipes into your
Play application.
What This Book Covers
Chapter 1, Basics of the Play Framework, explains the basics of the Play framework.
This chapter will give you a head start about the first steps to carry out after you create
your first application. It will provide you with the basic knowledge needed for any
advanced topic.
Chapter 2, Using Controllers, will help you to keep your controllers as clean as possible,
with a well defined boundary to your model classes.
Chapter 3, Leveraging Modules, gives a brief overview of some modules and how to
make use of them. It should help you to speed up your development when you need to
integrate existing tools and libraries.
Chapter 4, Creating and Using APIs, shows a practical example of integrating an API
into your application, and provides some tips on what to do when you are a data provider
yourself, and how to expose an API to the outside world.
Chapter 5, Introduction To Writing Modules, explains everything related to
writing modules.
Chapter 6, Practical Module Examples, shows some examples used in productive
applications. It also shows an integration of an alternative persistence layer, how to
create a Solr module for better search, and how to write an alternative distributed cache
implementation among others.
Chapter 7, Running Into Production, explains the complexity that begins once the
site goes live. This chapter is targeted towards both groups, developers, as well as
system administrators.
Appendix, Further Information About the Play Framework, gives you more information
about where you can find help with Play.
Using Controllers
In this chapter, we will cover:
- URL routing using annotation-based configuration
- Basics of caching
- Using HTTP digest authentication
- Generating PDFs in your controllers
- Binding objects using custom binders
- Validating objects using annotations
- Adding annotation-based right checks to your controller
- Rendering JSON output
- Writing your own renderRSS method as controller output
This chapter will help you to keep your controllers as clean as possible, with a well defined
boundary to your model classes. Always remember that controllers are really only a thin layer
to ensure that your data from the outside world is valid before handing it over to your models,
or something needs to be specifically adapted to HTTP. The chapter will start with some basic
recipes, but it will cover some more complex topics later on with quite a bit code, of course
mostly explained with examples.
URL routing using annotation-based configuration
If you do not like the routes file, you can also describe your routes programmatically by adding
annotations to your controllers. This has the advantage of not having any additional config
file, but also poses the problem of your URLs being dispersed in your code.
You can find the source code of this example in the examples/chapter2/annotationcontroller
How to do it…
Go to your project and install the router module via conf/dependencies.yml:
- play
- play -> router head
Then run playdeps and the router module should be installed in the modules/ directory of
your application. Change your controller like this:
@ServeStatic(value="/public/", directory="public")
public class Application extends Controller {
@Any(value="/", priority=100)
public static void index() {
forbidden("Reserved for administrator");
@Put(value="/", priority=2, accept="application/json")
public static void hiddenIndex() {
renderText("Secret news here");
public static void getTicket(String username, String password) {
String uuid = UUID.randomUUID().toString();
How it works…
Installing and enabling the module should not leave any open questions for you at this point.
As you can see in the controller, it is now filled with annotations that resemble the entries
in the routes.conf file, which you could possibly have deleted by now for this example.
However, then your application will not start, so you have to have an empty file at least.
The @ServeStatic annotation replaces the static command in the routes file. The
@StaticRoutes annotation is just used for grouping several @ServeStatic annotations
and could be left out in this example.
Each controller call now has to have an annotation in order to be reachable. The name of
the annotation is the HTTP method, or @Any, if it should match all HTTP methods. Its only
mandatory parameter is the value, which resembles the URI—the second field in the routes.
conf. All other parameters are optional. Especially interesting is the priority parameter,
which can be used to give certain methods precedence. This allows a lower prioritized catchall
controller like in the preceding example, but a special handling is required if the URI is
called with the PUT method. You can easily check the correct behavior by using curl, a very
practical command line HTTP client:
curl -v localhost:9000/
This command should give you a result similar to this:
> User-Agent: curl/7.21.0 (i686-pc-linux-gnu) libcurl/7.21.0
OpenSSL/0.9.8o zlib/188.8.131.52 libidn/1.18
> Host: localhost:9000
> Accept: */*
< HTTP/1.1 403 Forbidden
< Server: Play! Framework;1.1;dev
< Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8
< Set-Cookie: PLAY_FLASH=;Path=/

< Set-Cookie: PLAY_SESSION=0c7df945a5375480993f51914804284a3bb
< Cache-Control: no-cache
< Content-Length: 32

Reserved for administrator

You can see the HTTP error message and the content returned. You can trigger a PUT request
in a similar fashion:
curl -X PUT -v localhost:9000/
> User-Agent: curl/7.21.0 (i686-pc-linux-gnu) libcurl/7.21.0
OpenSSL/0.9.8o zlib/126.96.36.199 libidn/1.18
> Host: localhost:9000
> Accept: */*

< Set-Cookie: PLAY_SESSION=f0cb6762afa7c860dde3fe1907e8847347
< Cache-Control: no-cache
< Content-Length: 16
Secret news here
As you can see now, the priority has voted the controller method for the PUT method which is
chosen and returned.
There's more...
The router module is a small, but handy module, which is perfectly suited to take a first look
at modules and to understand how the routing mechanism of the Play framework works at its
core. You should take a look at the source if you need to implement custom mechanisms of
URL routing.
Mixing the configuration file and annotations is possible
You can use the router module and the routes file—this is needed when using modules as they
cannot be specified in annotations. However, keep in mind that this is pretty confusing. You
can check out more info about the router module at http://www.playframework.org/
Basics of caching
Caching is quite a complex and multi-faceted technique, when implemented correctly.
However, implementing caching in your application should not be complex, but rather the
mindwork before, where you think about what and when to cache, should be. There are
many different aspects, layers, and types (and their combinations) of caching in any web
application. This recipe will give a short overview about the different types of caching and
how to use them.
You can find the source code of this example in the chapter2/caching-general directory.
Getting ready
First, it is important that you understand where caching can happen—inside and outside
of your Play application. So let's start by looking at the caching possibilities of the HTTP
protocol. HTTP sometimes looks like a simple protocol, but is tricky in the details. However,
it is one of the most proven protocols in the Internet, and thus it is always useful to rely on
its functionalities.
HTTP allows the caching of contents by setting specific headers in the response. There are
several headers which can be set:
- Cache-Control: This is a header which must be parsed and used by the client and
also all the proxies in between. - Last-Modified: This adds a timestamp, explaining when the requested resource had
been changed the last time. On the next request the client may send an If-Modified-
Since header with this date. Now the server may just return a HTTP 304 code without
sending any data back. - ETag: An ETag is basically the same as a Last-Modified header, except it has a
semantic meaning. It is actually a calculated hash value resembling the resource
behind the requested URL instead of a timestamp. This means the server can decide
when a resource has changed and when it has not. This could also be used for some
type of optimistic locking.
So, this is a type of caching on which the requesting client has some infl uence on. There
are also other forms of caching which are purely on the server side. In most other Java web
frameworks, the HttpSession object is a classic example, which belongs to this case.
Play has a cache mechanism on the server side. It should be used to store big session data,
in this case any data exceeding the 4KB maximum cookie size. Be aware that there is a
semantic difference between a cache and a session. You should not rely on the data being
in the cache and thus need to handle cache misses.
You can use the Cache class in your controller and model code. The great thing about it is
that it is an abstraction of a concrete cache implementation. If you only use one node for your
application, you can use the built-in ehCache for caching. As soon as your application needs
more than one node, you can configure a memcached in your application.conf and there
is no need to change any of your code.
Furthermore, you can also cache snippets of your templates. For example, there is no need
to reload the portal page of a user on every request when you can cache it for 10 minutes.
This also leads to a very simple truth. Caching gives you a lot of speed and might even lower
your database load in some cases, but it is not free. Caching means you need RAM, lots
of RAM in most cases. So make sure the system you are caching on never needs to swap,
otherwise you could read the data from disk anyway. This can be a special problem in cloud
deployments, as there are often limitations on available RAM.
The following examples show how to utilize the different caching techniques. We will show four
different use cases of caching in the accompanying test. First test:
public class CachingTest extends FunctionalTest {
public void testThatCachingPagePartsWork() {
Response response = GET("/");
String cachedTime = getCachedTime(response);
assertEquals(getUncachedTime(response), cachedTime);
response = GET("/");
String newCachedTime = getCachedTime(response);
assertNotSame(getUncachedTime(response), newCachedTime);
assertEquals(cachedTime, newCachedTime);
public void testThatCachingWholePageWorks() throws Exception {
Response response = GET("/cacheFor");
String content = getContent(response);
response = GET("/cacheFor");
assertEquals(content, getContent(response));
response = GET("/cacheFor");
assertNotSame(content, getContent(response));
public void testThatCachingHeadersAreSet() {
Response response = GET("/proxyCache");
assertHeaderEquals("Cache-Control", "max-age=3600", response);
public void testThatEtagCachingWorks() {
Response response = GET("/etagCache/123");
assertContentEquals("Learn to use etags, dumbass!", response);
Request request = newRequest();
String etag = String.valueOf("123".hashCode());
Header noneMatchHeader = new Header("if-none-match", etag);
request.headers.put("if-none-match", noneMatchHeader);
DateTime ago = new DateTime().minusHours(12);
String agoStr = Utils.getHttpDateFormatter().format(ago.
Header modifiedHeader = new Header("if-modified-since",
request.headers.put("if-modified-since", modifiedHeader);
response = GET(request, "/etagCache/123");
assertStatus(304, response);
private String getUncachedTime(Response response) {
return getTime(response, 0);
private String getCachedTime(Response response) {
return getTime(response, 1);
private String getTime(Response response, intpos) {
String content = getContent(response);
return content.split("\n")[pos];
The first test checks for a very nice feature. Since play 1.1, you can cache parts of a page,
more exactly, parts of a template. This test opens a URL and the page returns the current date
and the date of such a cached template part, which is cached for about 10 seconds. In the
first request, when the cache is empty, both dates are equal. If you repeat the request, the
first date is actual while the second date is the cached one.
The second test puts the whole response in the cache for 5 seconds. In order to ensure that
expiration works as well, this test waits for six seconds and retries the request.
The third test ensures that the correct headers for proxy-based caching are set.
The fourth test uses an HTTP ETag for caching. If the If-Modified-Since and If-None-
Match headers are not supplied, it returns a string. On adding these headers to the correct
ETag (in this case the hashCode from the string 123) and the date from 12 hours before,
a 302 Not-Modified response should be returned.
How to do it...
Add four simple routes to the configuration as shown in the following code:
GET / Application.index
GET /cacheFor Application.indexCacheFor
GET /proxyCache Application.proxyCache
GET /etagCache/{name} Application.etagCache
The application class features the following controllers:
public class Application extends Controller {
public static void index() {
Date date = new Date();
public static void indexCacheFor() {
Date date = new Date();
renderText("Current time is: " + date);
public static void proxyCache() {
private static EtagCacheCalculator calculator;
public static void etagCache(String name) {
Date lastModified = new DateTime().minusDays(1).toDate();
String etag = calculator.calculate(name);
if(!request.isModified(etag, lastModified.getTime())) {
throw new NotModified();
response.cacheFor(etag, "3h", lastModified.getTime());
renderText("Learn to use etags, dumbass!");
As you can see in the controller, the class to calculate ETags is injected into the controller. This
is done on startup with a small job as shown in the following code:
public class InjectionJob extends Job implements BeanSource {
private Map<Class, Object>clazzMap = new HashMap<Class, Object>();
public void doJob() {
clazzMap.put(EtagCacheCalculator.class, new
public <T> T getBeanOfType(Class<T>clazz) {
return (T) clazzMap.get(clazz);
The calculator itself is as simple as possible:
public class EtagCacheCalculator implements ControllerSupport {
public String calculate(String str) {
return String.valueOf(str.hashCode());
The last piece needed is the template of the index() controller, which looks like this:
Current time is: ${date}
#{cache 'mainPage', for:'5s'}
Current time is: ${date}
How it works...
Let's check the functionality per controller call. The index() controller has no special
treatment inside the controller. The current date is put into the template and that's it.
However, the caching logic is in the template here because not the whole, but only a part of
the returned data should be cached, and for that a #{cache} tag used. The tag requires two
arguments to be passed. The for parameter allows you to set the expiry out of the cache,
while the first parameter defines the key used inside the cache. This allows pretty interesting
things. Whenever you are in a page where something is exclusively rendered for a user (like
his portal entry page), you could cache it with a key, which includes the user name or the
session ID, like this:
#{cache 'home-' + connectedUser.email, for:'15min'}
This kind of caching is completely transparent to the user, as it exclusively happens on
the server side. The same applies for the indexCacheFor() controller . Here, the whole
page gets cached instead of parts inside the template. This is a pretty good fit for nonpersonalized,
high performance delivery of pages, which often are only a very small portion
of your application. However, you already have to think about caching before. If you do a time
consuming JPA calculation, and then reuse the cache result in the template, you have still
wasted CPU cycles and just saved some rendering time.
The third controller call proxyCache() is actually the most simple of all. It just sets the
proxy expire header called Cache-Control. It is optional to set this in your code, because
your Play is configured to set it as well when the http.cacheControl parameter in
your application.conf is set. Be aware that this works only in production, and not in
development mode.
The most complex controller is the last one. The first action is to find out the last modified
date of the data you want to return. In this case it is 24 hours ago. Then the ETag needs
to be created somehow. In this case, the calculator gets a String passed. In a real-world
application you would more likely pass the entity and the service would extract some
properties of it, which are used to calculate the ETag by using a pretty-much collision-safe
hash algorithm. After both values have been calculated, you can check in the request
whether the client needs to get new data or may use the old data. This is what happens
in the request.isModified() method.
If the client either did not send all required headers or an older timestamp was used, real
data is returned; in this case, a simple string advising you to use an ETag the next time.
Furthermore, the calculated ETag and a maximum expiry time are also added to the
response via response.cacheFor().
A last specialty in the etagCache() controller is the use of the EtagCacheCalculator.
The implementation does not matter in this case, except that it must implement the
ControllerSupport interface. However, the initialization of the injected class is still
worth a mention. If you take a look at the InjectionJob class , you will see the creation
of the class in the doJob() method on startup, where it is put into a local map. Also,
the Injector.inject() call does the magic of injecting the EtagCacheCalculator
instance into the controllers. As a result of implementing the BeanSource interface, the
getBeanOfType() method tries to get the corresponding class out of the map. The map
actually should ensure that only one instance of this class exists.
There's more...
Caching is deeply integrated into the Play framework as it is built with the HTTP protocol
in mind. If you want to find out more about it, you will have to examine core classes of
the framework.
More information in the ActionInvoker
If you want to know more details about how the @CacheFor annotation works in Play, you
should take a look at the ActionInvoker class inside of it.
Be thoughtful with ETag calculation
Etag calculation is costly, especially if you are calculating more then the last-modified stamp.
You should think about performance here. Perhaps it would be useful to calculate the ETag
after saving the entity and storing it directly at the entity in the database. It is useful to make
some tests if you are using the ETag to ensure high performance. In case you want to know
more about ETag functionality, you should read RFC 2616.
You can also disable the creation of ETags totally, if you set http.useETag=false in your
Use a plugin instead of a job
The job that implements the BeanSource interface is not a very clean solution to the
problem of calling Injector.inject() on start up of an application. It would be better to
use a plugin in this case.
See also
The cache in Play is quite versatile and should be used as such. We will see more about it in
all the recipes in this chapter. However, none of this will be implemented as a module, as it
should be. This will be shown in Chapter 6, Practical Module Examples.

A majority of the outages are in the Northwoods.
As of 9 a.m. Sunday, there are still more than 16,000 people without electricity.
Power was knocked out after severe thunderstorms ripped through much of the area Saturday.
The worst areas hit were Eagle River and Minocqua.
Other areas affected are Merrill, Rhinelander, Tomahawk and Wausau.
WPSC crews warn residents to stay away from downed power lines: do not touch them and call WPSC immediately to report any outages.
They say power should be back on later this evening, there maybe a few residents in the dark until Monday.

(Beijing, China) - Two days into the women's Olympic singles competition and Chen Wang (New York City, N.Y.) let it be known that she is a force to be reckoned with when she defeated Krisztina Toth (HUN), 4-1, in the third round on Wednesday at Peking University Gymnasium.
Wang led throughout the first three games which she won with little challenge from the Hungarian, 11-7, 11-7 and 11-6.
Needing only one more game to finish the match, Wang showed weakness for the first time when she was down 9-10. After scoring two more points, Wang led 11-10 and needed one more to close out the match, but Toth pulled ahead, soon forcing another game point and winning the game, 11-13.
Determined to change things up, Wang came out in the fifth with a blazing paddle and Toth was left behind as Wang dominated the match and took the win, 11-2 in three minutes.
"In the fifth game, I changed my game to hit her forehand more," said Wang, who has lost to Toth twice previously. "She plays more softly, big sweeping hits, I just played more aggressively."
Wang will test her aggression tomorrow morning when she plays the winner of the match between 2004 Olympic bronze medalist Kyung-Ah Kim (KOR) and two-time World Team Championships bronze medalist Haruna Fukuoka (JPN) at 10 a.m. on Thursday.

As you face the cliff, this route is towards the left end. Keep walking left until you see a non-generic crack with a small A-shaped roof almost half way up the line. You won't miss it - it's striking. This crack starts wide, goes to fist-large hands in a flaring slot, hits the small roof and then leads to less than favorable sizes until you reach the anchor ledge. The business above the roof is mainly a steep section with thin hands to rattly fingers until you are just about at the ledge. This climb is nice because it varies in size and it actually has a few nice face hold on it. It's not a bad choice for the beginning 11- Creek leader.
This route has a nice fixed anchor at a small ledge roughly 90 feet off the deck. You can belay from up here if someone is seconding the route. For gear, bring a set of cams from #1 to #5 Friends. Doubles are only needed for 1.75, 2 and possibly the 2.5 and 1.5 Friends (bring triples if you're worried). There are also a couple opportunities for large bomber stoppers.
I have both lead and followed this route and did not think it necessary to have a wide cam to protect it. 1.5-2.5" cams were the crux pro, as the upper section is thin hands. Fun route.
The larger cam can be placed lower on the climb for added comfort. Look at the bottom and see if you want to protect the lower section. If not, then don't bring anything larger than a 3.5 Friend (1 will do).
I brought 3 #4 friends and placed them all, and I am an extemely confident leader.
I really enjoyed the variety and elegance of movement on this one-- it's a lot more interesting.than yr. typical monotonous I.C. enduro-fest.
This is a great route to climb but lots of the rock is shitty. There is a way to climb it that doesn't involve touching the large block that sounds real nice and solid (chimney to the face hold & span the block.) If you look at the climb you'll notice the slot under the roof is going to get larger when the roof falls out. After the roof/block there is more not solid rock leading to a section of hollow splitter! Great variety though. I would be solid on this one, there are many other low 11's to take a ride on. A. Everhart
Tony and Ben are both right (just like an after school special). The big cam isn't needed, but it sure adds to the comfort. I will say that if you do opt for the biggun, put a long runner on it.
Varied climbing with a thin hands finish. I highly recommend this one.
I used only 1 #3 camalot on this one. I probably used one #2, many (six or more) #1's, several (3?) #.75's, one #.5, and a yellow TCU for the roof, plus at least 3 slings to reduce rope drad. This is really a great route! My favorite at the Creek so far, and definately my proudest onsight. Exposed, techinical, difficult without being overly pumpy. Oh yeah, and I yarded on all the 'loose' blocks and nothing bad happened. :)
Just an FYI since the FA wasn't listed for this write up. Jay Smith did the FA on this classic.
One of my favorite lines at the Creek...varied and 5.fun. Excellent pitch. A #5 C4 protects the top of the wider section. A couple climbers said pro in this section wasn't needed. It isn't needed. No pro is needed, but if you don't want to take a 20 foot fall, you might wanna place it.
Way, way easier than scarface which is also rated 11-. Walk your 4 up the starting crack. Then a 3, a 2, and a 1 before you bust over the roof. A 2 after the roof, then maybe 2 1s, and 3 .75s.
Felt harder than Scarface for my big hands. Great route.
If you don't have a big cam for the start, it's pretty easy to protect the finger crack on the right with anything between blue and yellow aliens. No problem to do this if you have your leg all the way in the wide crack, or if you are liebacking.
I agree with the above comment that a small cam works in lieu of a big one at the start. I got in a red c3, but can also understand the desire to place a #5 at the start as well. Brought 1 #4 for the pod/flare thing. As the above comments also state, there's quite a bit of funky rock on this throughout the route. There was a particular rock that is in the pod about 3/4ths of the way up the route that I tried to trundle, but was unable to get it out by hand.

New Year's Eve revelers, be warned: Don't drive home from any celebrations if you've been drinking.
Extra law enforcement will be on duty to help ensure the safety of everyone as they return home from celebrations ushering in 2013.
Fayetteville police plan to have about 20 additional officers and two supervisors on city streets tonight, said Lt. Chris Davis, a police spokesman.
The officers will supplement those already scheduled to work tonight, he said.
Some of them will be assisting Fort Bragg authorities with a checkpoint on Bragg Boulevard, Davis said.
The Highway Patrol will be cruising on Interstate 95 and secondary roads, said 1st Sgt. J.D. Aiken of the Fayetteville office.
"New Year's Eve here is like a busy weekend night," said Aiken, who has been in Fayetteville since 1999.
All troopers will be available to work the late shift, he said.
"They'll use saturation patrols and possibly checkpoints," Aiken said.
The Highway Patrol will focus on drunken driving, according to a news release.
Last year, 10 people were killed in vehicle-related crashes between Christmas and New Year's, the release said.
Since January, troopers statewide have investigated 5,545 wrecks that involved impaired drivers, the release said, up from 5,310 the year before.
Troopers have made 23,000 driving-while-impaired arrests in 2012, the release said.
Anyone who has a blood alcohol content of .08 percent is considered impaired, according to state law.
But a driver doesn't have to register that amount on a breath or blood test to be charged, Aiken said.
"If, in the opinion of the trooper, you're impaired, you'll be arrested and taken for the intoxicator test," Aiken said.
Those who are charged with DWI automatically lose their drivers' licenses for 30 days, he said.
Those refusing to take the breath test face a one-year revocation of their licenses, Aiken said.
"Obviously, if you drink, don't drive," he said. "Use designated drivers or taxis. Whatever you do, just don't get behind the wheel."
