'Stay away or face arrest' message to yobs targeting two Finsbury Park estates
By JulieGK | Tuesday, December 18, 2012, 20:50
Islington Council and Islington police are tackling anti-social behaviour with a new dispersal zone across the Andover and Six Acres estates.
A group of youths from outside the area have been gathering on both estates, and intimidating local residents.
There have also been complaints about drug-taking, drug-dealing, drinking, rowdiness and other anti-social behaviour. Some individuals are also suspected of criminal damage, assault and public order offences.
To tackle the problems, the council and police have been granted a dispersal authorisation across the two estates, which means that groups can be asked to leave the area by police. Failure to leave can lead to arrest.
The zone covers an area bounded by Seven Sisters Road, Hornsey Road, Tollington Park and Fonthill Road. It runs from 9am on Friday, 21 December for three months, until 20 March 2013.
The zone is part of wider action being taken to tackle anti-social behaviour in the area, including housing anti-social behaviour injunctions and tenancy action.
Cllr Paul Convery, Islington Council's executive member for community safety, said: "We're taking action to stop people on the Andover and Six Acres estates suffering from the behaviour of a group of people from outside the area who are causing problems on their estates.
"These people don't live on the estates, and we won't put up with them coming to cause trouble. The message is simple - stay away from our estates or face arrest."
Sergeant Paul Cruise, from Finsbury Park Safer Neighbourhoods team, said: "This dispersal zone has been brought in to counteract criminal activity and anti-social behaviour that has blighted these estates.
"There have been a lot of improvements as a result of partnership work between ourselves, the residents' association and Islington Council.
"We are confident that this dispersal zone will help to reduce the problems and give additional protection to those living, visiting and working in the area."
To report anti-social behaviour in Islington, call the council's ASB team on 020 7527 7272 or go to www.islington.gov.uk/reportasb
Calls will get a response as soon as possible, certainly within 24 hours. Officers can make visits between 4pm and 2am Sunday to Thursday, and 5pm to 4am Friday and Saturday.
During office hours, council tenants and leaseholders should report ASB to the ASB team at their Area Housing Office, on the phone or in person, and Housing Association tenants should report ASB to their landlord.
Out of office hours, council tenants and leaseholders and Housing Association tenants should call 020 7527 7272.
Alternatively call the police's non-emergency line, 101. In an emergency dial 999.

PITTSBURGH (AP) -- The oil and gas industry is trying to ease environmental concerns by developing nontoxic fluids for the drilling process known as fracking.
But it's not clear whether the fluids will be widely embraced by drilling companies.
Fracking has made it possible to tap into energy reserves across the nation but also has raised concerns about pollution, since large volumes of water along with sand and hazardous chemicals are injected underground to free the oil and gas from rock.
CleanStim is a product by energy giant Halliburton Inc. that uses only food-grade additives. The company says it is working to reduce safety and environmental concerns for both workers and the public.
Two environmental groups say they welcome the development, but still have questions about other issues caused by drilling.

Recalculated with base of 100.
Gold! Are a new class of investors treating it like Treasuries?
The evidence: A stunningly high correlation of Gold to 20+ Year Treasuries (Symbol: TLT) from July 21 through August 16 is 0.89. Over that period, Gold is up 12.3%, while Treasuries up 11.8% (not counting today's spasm).
Contrast this to a correlation of 0.5 over the periods July 21, 2009 – July 21, 2011 and it appears Gold and Treasuries are now behaving as one and the same, moving in lockstep fashion. Of course, Treasuries are a much broader and deeper market, and a move in Bonds represents trillions of dollars of activity, versus Gold, which is orders of magnitude smaller.
Perhaps investors who might otherwise flock to Treasuries during risk-off modes are now flocking to Gold? After all, S&P cannot downgrade a metal…

As legendary investor Jeremy Grantham notes, copper production is falling:
As I've previously noted, gold production has also been falling:
Reuters India noted on March 29th:
China's gold demand is expected to double over the next decade due to jewellery consumption and investment needs, the World Gold Council (WGC) said in its first report on the world's fastest growing consumer of the metal.
If the central bank boosts gold holdings to 2.2 percent of forex reserves, a peak level seen in 2002, from the current 1.6 percent, China's total incremental demand would rise by 400 tonnes at the current gold price, the WGC report said.
China's share of global gold demand doubled from 5 percent in 2002 to 11 percent in 2009, and the council predicted that China's domestic gold mines could be exhausted within six years.
"The Chinese gold industry is simply not responding fast enough to bring in new supply," it said.
China is not the only country facing declining gold production.
The world's biggest gold producer – Barrick – says that the relatively easy-to-reach gold supplies are gone, and so supplies are getting more and more expensive to locate and extract:
Aaron Regent, president of the Canadian gold giant [Barrick], said that global output has been falling by roughly 1m ounces a year since the start of the decade. Total mine supply has dropped by 10pc as ore quality erodes, implying that the roaring bull market of the last eight years may have further to run.
"There is a strong case to be made that we are already at 'peak gold'," he told The Daily Telegraph at the RBC's annual gold conference in London.
"Production peaked around 2000 and it has been in decline ever since, and we forecast that decline to continue. It is increasingly difficult to find ore," he said.
Mining-Technology.com stated in March 2008:
Global gold production has been in steady decline since 2002. Production in 2007 was around 2,444t, down 1% on the previous year.
Analysts note that virtually all of the low-lying fruit has now been picked with respect to gold, meaning that companies will have to take on more challenging and more expensive projects to meet supply. The extent to which the current high price of gold can translate into profits remains to be seen…
According to Bhavesh Morar, national leader of the mining, energy and infrastructure group with Deloitte Australia, frenzied exploration activity over the last few years has seen virtually all of the easy harvest been picked with respect to gold…
The high price of gold is however encouraging more adventurous projects, be they more challenging financially, geologically, geopolitically or all three. New projects for gold and other resources are mushrooming throughout Africa, China, the Middle East and the former Soviet Union; all areas where sovereign risk is potentially very high.
Zeal Speculation and Investment wrote last July:
Miners have the same geological landscape to work with today as those miners thousands of years ago. The only difference is the low-hanging fruit has already been picked. Gold producers must now search for and mine their gold in locations that may not be very amenable to mining. Many of today's gold mines are located in parts of the world that would not have even been considered in the past based on geography, geology, and/or geopolitics.
And these factors among many are attributable to an alarming trend we are seeing in global mined production volume. According to data provided by the US Geological Survey, global gold production is at a 12-year low. And provocatively this downward trend has accelerated during a period where the price of gold is skyrocketing.
You would think that with the price of gold rising at such a torrid pace gold miners would ramp up production in order to profit from this trend. But as you can see in this chart this has not been the case, at all. Not only has gold production not responded, but it has dropped at an unsightly pace that has sent shockwaves throughout the gold trade.

Gautam Sabharwal of Monetising Mobile sponsor Tanla explains how developers can set their own prices and sell their own apps using TPAY.
In the week in which Google revealed 200,000 free and paid apps in the Android Market store, it seems there's more noise than ever in the app space. Discoverability is getting worse.
One way for developers to break through and make their voice heard is by hosting apps themselves from their own destinations. It's not straightforward, of course. They need to market these apps in order to attract traffic to the sites.
But with the many open mobile platforms now available – Android, Symbian – it's technically and commercial feasible for the more adventurous content makers to pursue such a strategy.
It's with this is mind that billing specialist Tanla launched TPay in March. This solution lets developers integrate flexible payment options into their apps so they can explore retailing themselves.
We asked Gautam Sabharwal, director of global business development at Tanla, to explain more...
How many developers have signed up for TPAY to date?
We have around 60 on the programme now. That's pretty good, considering we haven't done much marketing. They're mostly games developers on Android and Java.
How does the system work?
There are no fees, and you just register on the site. It works with two kinds of integration, either an SDK or a wrapper. The SDK works best with native platforms and the wrapping tech just lets you upload your app and then download the wrapped version. Ease of integration is very important because of all the different platforms out there. Our tech lets developers convert multiple file variants in seconds. It's all because of the tech that we acquired when we bought OpenBit.
And the billing options?
There's operator billing with around 100 networks on 30 countries and credit card billing. The only major territory missing on operator billing is the US, but it's imminent. The developer can specify the currency, charging amount, business model, free play period and so on.
What are the advantages of this kind of flexibility?
The conversion rates for apps are much higher when you can adjust it to the right business model. Take navigation for example. You might want to buy an app to travel to Germany, say. If you're going for a week, you'd probably be more interested in an app that lets you pay a fee for a week's rental.
And how important is the operator billing part?
Very. It's 80 per cent of the transactions. But not the value. Clearly when people spend, say, £90 on an annual licence, they use a credit card.
Which platforms does TPAY support?
All the major platforms except WinPho 7 and iOS, for obvious reasons. But we're working on Windows, and we also have plans for iPhone web apps using HTML5.
Where can TPAY apps be sold?
Well, we can't offer TPay on the official OEM app stores like Android Market and Ovi. But anything outside of them – like GetJar or a handset pre-load – can support apps made with the solution. As we all know discoverability is a major issue on app stores, so developers with marketing dollars are all looking at these distribution, as well as hosting their own downloads. This is where we see the real interest coming from. Also, we have our own relationships with operators and handset makers, so there is the potential for TPAY developers to work with us there.

Dumbass quote of the day: Alexander Haig's shaky grasp of diplomacy
"The fundamental task of diplomacy is to strip policy of its ambiguity," Alexander Haig Jr. writes (70) in his memoir Inner Circles, which I am now reading. I just about fell out of my chair when I saw that. I wonder what Haig's old boss, Henry Kissinger, the grandmaster of strategic ambiguity, would say about that. Amazon's "look inside this book" function says that in his book Diplomacy, Kissinger uses the word some 29 times.
Haig gets extra dumbass points for the brassy certitude of his assertion -- and for, a score of pages later, this assessment of the Shah of Iran: "I thought in 1961, and I still think, that he was as close to being a natural and sincere democrat as anyone I ever met in his part of the world." (90)
More interestingly, Haig says he thinks that Fidel Castro was behind John F. Kennedy's assassination, and says Lyndon B. Johnson thought so too. "I think that President Johnson's suspicions in regard to Castro's role were amply justified," he writes. (115-116) Haig, who had acted as a kind of Army liaison to veterans of the Central Intelligence Agency-led Bay of Pigs attack on Cuba, says he was given a report that supported the accusation against Castro, but that he was ordered to forget it and that the report was destroyed.
The book cost me one cent plus shipping and handling, so I am not complaining.

Korean cops raid Google
Police raided Google's South Korean offices today as part of their probe into the firm's Street View Wi-Fi data harvesting operation. The country is one of many running criminal investigations into the practice, which was revealed in June. "[We] have been investigating Google Korea on suspicion of unauthorised collection and …
Korean wants to steal Google secrets
Clearly they used this bogus pretext as an excuse to break in and try to steal whatever trade secrets Google had on its Korean headquarters. The info which they then use for their own competitors.
In general, governments aren't too keen with the giant US corporation be it Google, Facebook or other know too many personal details about all their citizen.
Especially when they break the law. Dickwad.
I'm really glad...
That the Information Commissioner's Office was satisfied on the basis of samples it had been shown by Google that no personally identifiable information had been harvested in the UK. That is really comforting to know.
In just the same way as I'm really glad that Banks made such sterling efforts to weed out the dubious applications for loans for homes and property and got the economy into a mess.
Were these samples selected by Google - Masters of Mathematics! - or by the Information Commissioner's Office (??)
Move along now, nothing to see here...
Nick nick
Doesn't stop anyone from making a complaint to the plod though. I may be wrong here, but the Information Commissioners Office may not see anything wrong, but it doesn't mean anything if Google have actually broken the law, and anyone that believes that Google has illegally snooped their data have every right to make an official complaint to the police.
I cant believe there is any reason for charges NOT to be made by the police, what a joke this country is.
Typical Korean nationalism
This has nothing to do with wifi, privacy or anything, the Korean government will just use any excuse to keep foreign companies out of their market. Google has a paltry 2% market share there, while Naver their top Google-like search engine has 70%.
Daum the other big Korean Internet mapping portal already has their version Street View for a long time and did anyone check if they kept a few wifi addresses on the way...
Posting anonymously has they like to spend their time checking people around the web too...
Shock horror!
American megacorp not market leader in every country shock! Film at 11.
A tad paranoid?
That makes no sense. If you want to keep a foreign company out of your country, surely its easier to prevent them opening in the first place rather than using some pretext to grab a handful of hard disks from an already established site? Many countries, Korea included, require various certifications and approvals to open a foreign owned company/subsidiary - simply concoct a reason to refuse the application.
Besides, if they have a paltry 2% market share as you say, why bother with an excuse to keep them out? They're not exactly taking the local market by storm according to your own assertion!
Are you people blind?
I think that the Korean government staged the raid to get their hands on the wireless data...
google is the us government
What they did was well within their rights. Whatever they may have wanted to 'steal' more than likely never should of been in googles possession to begin with.
How the hell does a company go around the world collecting wireless data and than say oops we didn't know that's what we were doing and get away with it?
Google offices need raided around the world, they raid us everyday with all their datamining.
Let them have a taste of their own medicine. There is nothing a public search engine should have that isn't all able to be dumped into the public to begin with.
We of course know that's not the playbook google uses and alot of what they have about us was illegally mined for advertising prospect.
Thats life
Google broke the law in a foreign country and being an American company they should know that everyone else (apart from their loyal underdog) would make a show of collecting their scalp (Microsoft and the EU battling over Internet browsers and media players).
For all the good google has done it has also done a fair share of bad you ask all the small companies that can't get a hit out of google or all the money pouring out of the e-commerce world and into google's pockets.
This is the cost of globalisation so just kick back and enjoy the ride, Im just waiting for Andriod to develop self conscienceness and judgement day to roll on.
Have any of you seen how Koreans live? Most live in large apartment complexes (apartu's as they call them). In some areas you would be saturated with wireless signals. You can always get free wireless in Korea, there is always someone who doesn't secure their connection close by.
Why would the Korean gov care about the wireless data?
Title Required
Because when a Foreign company goes around your whole country taking it then its a little more serious than some dude in a car with a laptop outside someones house...

'Extremism and Its Support: Developing More Effective Policy Responses'
- Start date: 31 August 2012
- End date: 01 March 2013
One specific challenge facing policy-makers at the national and local levels is to understand, and deliver effective responses to, extremist movements. In particular, building on its work in the area of integration and extremism, the Department for Communities and Local Government (DCLG) aims to increase its knowledge and understanding about right-wing extremism. In co-operation with the DCLG as project partner, the aims of this six-month knowledge-exchange are to:
- support impact-generation from past research while contributing directly to the work of a national-level policy community
- to promote the application of accumulated academic knowledge on right-wing extremism and related issues
- to strengthen wider networks between academics and policy-makers
- to facilitate the co-production of creative and concrete policy ideas.
The project is anchored in a six-month placement at DCLG, where the applicant will draw on his past research, and also the work of other social scientists, to directly inform policy development.

The top-seeded Virginia women's soccer team advanced to the NCAA Quarterfinals with 2-0 victory over Wake Forest on a frigid Sunday night at Klöckner Stadium. Sophomore Makenzy Doniak and junior Morgan Brian both scored in the opening minutes of the second half to give the Cavaliers their second elite eight appearance in three seasons.
The Cavaliers (23-1) will host a NCAA quarterfinal for the first time since 1992 when it plays Michigan on Friday. Game time at Klöckner Stadium is set for 7 p.m.
"I don't think people realize how difficult this match was," said head coach Steve Swanson. "Wake is a great team. They are in our conference. They know us. They know our field. They are really organized and very difficult to break down. That was not an easy game. It was one of our best performances of the year, from start to finish. I was happy with how we moved the ball against a quality team that was organized and committed to defending."
Virginia had a majority of the possession throughout the first half and nearly took the lead in the third minute as Doniak hit the post. Although the Cavaliers had all six first-half shots of the game, the contest went to intermission scoreless.
The Cavaliers wasted little time getting on the scoreboard in the second half, scoring the go-ahead goal just 30 seconds after the break. First-year Alexis Shaffer hit a cross that hit off the post and came right to Doniak, who tapped into the empty net her team-leading 19th goal of the season.
Virginia doubled the lead in the 49th minute as Shaffer picked up her second assist of the evening. Junior midfielder Danielle Colaprico sent a ball to Shaffer, who delivered a cross that was one-timed in by Brian for her 15th goal of the season.
"I thought we got the ball in good positions in the first half, but we didn't lacked some quality in service and decision making," said Swanson. "We thought Alexis could give us more with her ability to take people on and her crossing, so we started her in the second half and it paid off. That first goal was a turning point in the game."
The two goals were all that Virginia needed as the Cavaliers posted their third consecutive shutout. It was their school-record 16th shutout of the season, breaking the previous mark of 15 shutouts in 2007. For the second straight game, Virginia allowed only one shot, which came in the 86th minute.
With the victory, Virginia advanced to the NCAA quarterfinals for the fourth time under Swanson. The Cavaliers will look for their first trip to the Women's College Cup since 1991 when they host Michigan Friday. The Wolverines topped Notre Dame 1-0 in Ann Arbor on Sunday in the round of 16.

Mike Robinson is seen in this file photo.Photo by Jenna Walker /Chattanooga Times Free Press.
Fork & Pie is closing, said owner Mike Robinson, who plans to switch gears and instead offer pies and pie fillings at grocery stores throughout the Chattanooga area.
"We're calling it quits," he said. "We decided to close the storefront and try to pivot."
It's a blow to the restaurant cluster on the 800 block of Market Street, which has seen one planned restaurant fail to open and two shut the doors, even as a group of food trucks and other restaurants moved into the area.
Robinson said that with the competition and the location, there wasn't enough wiggle room for him to make the mistakes that are typical of a young business concept.
"If you're in a good spot, you've got some room for error," Robinson said. "But if you're in a tough location, I don't think there's any room to play around. You have to open those doors at 110 percent and put out a great product."
A perceived lack of parking and a severe lack of residences in the area mean that things die down too quickly at night, he said, making it difficult for restaurateurs to branch out from typical fare. Since opening in June 2012, he and his 15 employees had difficulty making enough money to invest capital in making the business better.
"After 3 p.m. down here you're just scrapping for people to come in," he said. "Off-hours, having residential nearby really helps, there's really none of that."
Blair Waddell Mard, retail recruiter for the River City Co., said a solution is on the way for the businesses that can hang on to their customers. Though officials are far from meeting the demand for an estimated 3,500 student residents and 2,400 market rate dwellings, an announcement of a 200-unit development is forthcoming, with more on the way.
"We're looking at how can we take these office buildings that are vacant or have vacant floors and turn those into apartments, which would be a win for everyone involved, including the building owners," Mard said. "There's room for growth there, and we're working on the steps to support it with people living there, supporting it beyond 5 o'clock."
That could take years, however. Years that Robinson didn't have.
For now, he's going to work to build his catering business out of the current Fork & Pie location, and hopes to have negotiations complete with local grocery stores by the end of November.
He's not against opening another restaurant, but he plans to take a long break first to spend time with 2-year-old child.
"You have that honeymoon period of about two to three months, and you've got to wow those guests, and if you don't do it -- it's a little bit unforgiving," he said.
Robinson is a partner at Brewhaus, and helped open the Terminal Restaurant on Market Street. Before that, he worked for Outback Steakhouse, opening locations for the brand all over the U.S.
"People can keep an eye out, we're definitely going to do something else," Robinson said. "I'm not done yet."

This BIC Atlantis Retractable Ballpoint Pen is a great choice. It never skips a beat. We are in an upbeat, fast-paced environment which requires major multi-tasking. This pen is comfortable and doesn't wear on your fingers. I can use it all day long! Each color works just as well as the others, and the price is relatively reasonable considering how much other pens cost that are just as comfortable.

The White House is calling January "TPA (Trade Promotion Authority) Month" and has made it their task to pass Fast Track. President Obama needs Fast Track to pass the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP). When Congress returned this month, a bill was quickly introduced after delays of more than a year.
The lies begin with title of the bill: "The Bipartisan Congressional Trade Priorities Act of 2014." Bi-partisan? In the House there was only one sponsor, Republican David Camp (MI). The Republicans demanded the Democrats add a sponsor before it was introduced, but due to public pressure, they could not find one.
The only Democrat on the bill in the Senate is Max Baucus (MT) - the senator who gave us the Bush tax cuts for the wealthy and who is leaving the senate to become Ambassador to China. So, the bill is only bi-partisan until he heads off to his new job.
Baucus likes to informally call the bill "The Job Creating Bipartisan Trade Priorities Act," but that just adds another lie since trade agreements consistently lose jobs, expand the wealth divide and increase trade deficits.
TPP Loses Momentum
After four years of secret negotiations with more than 600 corporate advisers, the once seemingly invincible largest trade bill in history, covering 40% of the world's economy , looks very much like it can be defeated.
Why is the TPP looking like it can be stopped? One reason is its secrecy.

Deconstructing Carbon before UN Climate Summit
Charged up by activists mobilizing for the UN Climate Summit in New York next week, we delved into our carbon Footprint data to see if we could shed light on the very intractable debates swirling around nations' responsibilities for reducing emissions. In the first graph below, our intrepid research analyst David Zimmerman found while EU countries toot their horns about declining emissions (as represented by the blue line below), the picture is not so simple.
Here's what David discovered after creating an index starting at 1993: EU emissions are actually increasing (except for a 2009 recession dip) when you account for all emissions resulting from consumption by EU residents (as shown in the red line). The measurement includes goods produced outside the EU but ultimately consumed inside its borders, and excludes goods produced within the EU that are consumed outside its borders.
In a second graphic, David compared carbon emissions within a nation's borders (domestic carbon emissions) to carbon emissions embodied in national consumption, which includes carbon associated with the production of goods outside the nation that were ultimately consumed inside the nation's borders.

What I Learned about Teaching from Playing Golf
(Click here to listen to the audio version of this blog.) When I was a kid my father used to take me to the golf course so I could walk along the ditch as he played. I got 25¢ for every golf ball I found. 50¢ if it was a keeper. I remember thinking that it looked like a fun game to play, but also wondered why so many golfers would want to hit their balls into the ditch […]
Competition vs. Cooperation: What Is Better For Our Schools?
Over Easter vacation a few weeks ago, something happened that I can't get out of my mind. My wife's family conducted the annual egg hunt for all of the children, ranging in ages from seven to seventeen. The plastic eggs were hidden all over the yard, some filled with candy and others filled with various amounts of money. The kids scrambled all over the yard, screaming with delight as their baskets were filling to the brim. When the hunt was over, they all came inside and emptied their eggs onto the floor, looking over the newly found loot.

All Things Are Changing, and We Are Changing With Them
All things are changing, and we are changing with them. The phrase in Latin is "Omnia mutantur, nos et mutamur in illis." This proverbial saying has also commonly be quoted as "Tempora mutantur, nos et mutamur in illis", meaning "The times are changed and we too are changed in them (or during them)." This idea is linked back to the Greek philosopher, Heraclitus who is believed to have said: ποταμοῖσι τοῖσιν αὐτοῖσιν ἐμϐαίνουσιν, ἕτερα καὶ ἕτερα ὕδατα ἐπιρρεῖ. […]

Razor's Ed Show #16: The Media Focus Is All Wrong . . . Again.
Once again, the national media has made the focus on stuff in the classroom, and NOT on educational pedagogy. This story on NBC Nightly News focuses on The Waldorf School of the Peninsula in Los Altos, California. The Waldorf School does not include high tech devices in their educational curriculum. That I have no problem. Listen on to hear where the problem absolutely lies in this story. Show links: The Waldorf Way: Silicon Valley school eschews technology (video) Waldorf School […]

- Beautiful view and better foodMadforMofongoDined on 11/15/2014Delicious cuisine in prixe fix menu. Very attentive service. Beautiful view. Definitely recommend. Pricey but a very good value.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Food was good but service needs work.TerrijaneDined on 11/15/2014At the beginning of the meal the service was wonderful and the owner charming. The 4th course which is only a salad took a really long time to deliver. When we finally saw our server we decided to pass on the course altogether and just go straight to desert. We had waited to long and no longer wanted it.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Our guests from CA loved it so much we went back!bosslindaDined on 11/14/2014The restaurant is one of our favorites. But it will not be the same once George sells, he is a big part of the whole scene.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Romantic evening - will do it againOutoftwnervisitingTorontoDined on 11/10/2014Great place, tiny but the food was super, the suggested wine list was excellent, the complimentary Champagne put us in the right mood, and the view was great. I definitely recommend for anyone who likes excellent food (in small tastefully presented portions), and wants to have an enjoyable evening. Best for couples, or parties of 4.Special Features:

- 60th wedding anniversaryConnie8Dined on 10/23/2014Our special day was made even more special from the time we entered (Happy Anniversary ) by the the hostess, to the table with the beautiful view of downtown Pittsburgh, to our very attentive waitress and the wonderful food. We had the prefix menu and were pleased with the selection (we each ordered different items so we could taste it all ) . We toasted our wonderful past 60 years of marriage with the complementary glass of champagne and will be back for our 65th .Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great overall experiencePTDorDined on 10/20/2014This was our first visit and it will not be our last. Not enough space here to properly address e!ach aspect of our meal but we each had the tasting menu and it was fantastic. We had the gnocchi, scallops, swordfish, red snapper, rib eye, and duck. Each course was better than the previous. The sorbet was the best my wife has tasted. In addition the the quality of the food you also get a lot for a tasting menu. You don't leave hungry. The service was attentive and polite. Everyone from the hostess and even parking attendant were friendly and welcoming. Our server was knowledgeable of the menu and very friendly. Some may come out for the view of the city which is beautiful but the food outshined the well lit point park fountain.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- One time deal.gemnetDined on 10/10/2014The scenic, especially at night, is beautiful. The restaurant is not very big. Kitchen and waiters/waitresses scrambling around. The portions are small. Must get appetizers or salad for a full meal. They offer a LA carte and Pris fixed menu for $75/pp. The table next to us ordered it. Portions are even smaller than a LA carte menu. I ordered the salmon, which was delicious and nicely cooked. My husband ordered the NY strip steak. Instead of a whole steak, the plate had 3 small slices of the steak. We ordered dessert. Also delicious. Great meal for me but my husband left hungry. He won't go back. The prices are not outrageous. Not sure why the restaurant has 4 $ signs.Special Features:
- Amazing view, great food and peopleBillDined on 10/6/2014One of the best dining views I've seen, and George is a tremendous host!! Highly recommended.Special Features:
- gottagoDined on 10/4/2014Everything we hoped for was present during our celebration at Isabela's. A very memorable meal.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Outstanding meal & ambiancegoodfoodseekerDined on 10/4/2014First visit to Isabela. Was looking for a romantic spot for our wedding anniversary. The view from atop Mt Washington is as good as it gets, with a spectacular vista of the golden triangle area, rivers and stadiums. The dining room was intimate and quiet. The service was perfect - there when you needed it but not intrusive. The owner stopped by to offer us free champagne for our anniversary and inquire about our food. Speaking of the food, we ate from the chef's choice 7-course menu (only option on Saturday night), and every course was exquisitely prepared - a treat both in appearance and taste. Definitely ranks among our top dining experiences in Pittsburgh.Special Features:
- Very disappointedJeffVIPDined on 10/3/2014It was our first and last trip back to Isabela"s after a long absence. The remodeled dining room was an improvement. Two of us ordered from the Prix Fixe menu with wine parings. The other two ordered Ala Carte. The service was slow and maddeningly uneven. Our server was new, inexperienced, and uncaring. The medium rare venison was served cold rare. The medium duck was rare, and then the whole plate placed in a microwave for finishing. The wine pairings (not listed on the menu) were poured haphazardly throughout the meal, and not appropriately introduced. We could blame the experience on our server, but the fact that the management would even allow someone this poorly trained to serve customers is an indictment on the owners.
- High-quality DiningVegetarianFoodieVIPDined on 9/27/2014the view from Isabela on Grandview is elevated since it's at the top of Mount Washington. And that elevation is an apt metaphor for the quality of its food and service. This time, we brought along a friend for her birthday. She's a veteran of Pittsburgh's developing restaurant scene and an excellent judge of quality dining. We were happy to see how much she enjoyed her first experience at Isabela. Since we were there on a Saturday, the menu was a multiple choice chef's tasting menu: four courses with three choices (that also allow for a mix-and-match), plus a sorbet and a salad designated by the chef. One member of our party also chose the wine pairing for the tasting menu. We enjoyed the birthday, and the owner gave us a souvenir picture.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- WowDavesDiningReviewDined on 9/24/2014This was my first dining experience and now many more to come. From the perfect valet parking, warm reception, prompt seating and friendly, knowledgeable service. Food selection is well organized with a wide array of flavors. A finicky person would be delighted at the Isabela.Special Features:
- DisappointedOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 9/19/2014I love the view of the city from this restaurant. Very poor selection on the "Vegetarian Menu." They did a poor job of not handling loud and obnoxious guests that were drinking alcohol. Overall, very poor service and overpriced mediocre food and expensive low to medium-quality wine. I am sad to say that the only positive experiences were the view and the bread with whipped honey butter topped with sea salt. Based on this visit, I would not return or recommend this restaurant.Special Features:
- Wow!MScheweDined on 9/15/2014We have enjoyed fine restaurants all over the country, and this ranks right at the top! Imaginative menu, quality ingredients prepared exquisitely. Service was remarkable but not at all pretentious. Be sure to make a reservation for a better chance at a window table overlooking the city lights.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- The foodGreenHmDined on 9/12/2014The menu is full of gourmet type eating. Some dishes were not as good like the gnocci and the sword fish which was tough and lacked flavor. Sometimes I think that restaurants go too overboard with too much variance in the dishes they make.Special Features:
- Absolutely amazing!TMathesonDined on 9/12/2014My husband and I visited Isabela on Grandview to celebrate his birthday, and the service, food, and wine were nothing less than spectacular. Executive Chef Jacqueline Wardle created earthy masterpieces with subtle but interesting flavors, and the sommelier's wine pairings were spot on. All of the wait staff were polite and knowledgable of the menu. The owner, George Merrick, came to our table twice to greet us and ask how our experience was, showing a unique interest in his business and ensuring his guests are happy. Highly recommended for a special evening out with breathtaking views of the city. Bon appetit!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great choices and romanticJfenn73Dined on 9/10/2014We go here every year for our anniversary and just love it.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- AnnetteVIPDined on 9/5/2014Great view but the food was not very good. The gnocchi tasted like paper. The service was good.. They try very hard with not much to work with
- Great view, Good FoodDCEmptyNesterDined on 8/28/2014Despite an unsightly billboard that disrupts the view a bit, this place has an extraordinary view of Pittsburgh. The food was delicious and the night my husband and I were there, the service was friendly but amateur (I'm guessing a high-school or college student). They'll need to invest in improvements to the exterior and entrance in professionalizing the staff to get to the next level but we enjoyed ourselves and I rather a "real" person as a server than a pretentious automaton. It's a good begining effort with lots of upside promise.Special Features:
- fabulous experienceOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 8/23/2014Fabulous experience. The outside of the restaurant is a little rugged, but gorgeous inside. The view is amazing and the service was outstanding. We really liked the multiple courses - portions were perfect-sized. Food was very good. I would highly recommend it, especially for special occasions.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- excellent serviceBamaVIPDined on 8/18/2014The service was top notch and owner comes by a few times to make sure everything is fine .The food is best in the pittsburgh area that I have had .Special Features:
- Just okayJFisherDined on 8/15/2014My wife heard from a couple coworkers how good the food is at Isabela. The food is okay. The scallop appetizer was excellent, the Semolina Gnocchi was odd, alomost like bread pieces. Both my wife and I ordered the NY strip med-rare. Both steaks came medium. The salad at the end of the meal (before dessert) is useless. The four pieces of lettuce were not worth wait. We both ordered the blond chocolate cheesecake, it was not impressive at all. The service started out good, but the delay between courses grew as the night went on. It took almost 15 minutes to get our salad after removing our meat course plates. After finishing the salad, dessert was another 15 minutes. We were not in a rush, but dinner was almost 2 hours.Special Features:
- The best restaurant in Pittsburgh.OpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 8/12/2014Isabela is the best combination of food, ambiance, service, and view that exists in Pittsburgh. Isabela's drink menu and cocktail creations start the evening of in the right way, and give a hint of the attention to detail the staff possess. The seven course menu is an example of culinary perfection that is not topical in Pittsburgh. Each course is sized and timed perfectly to ensure that the dinner is neither full nor agitated. This is all on to of the fact that the kitchen staff creates 7 of the most flexible courses I have ever experienced.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- GorgeousnichloeDined on 8/9/2014Everything was amazing- food, service, view. Perfect for a romantic dinner!! As we were eating fireworks lit the city sky. So pleased!!!Special Features:
- Not all it's cracked up to beumo3Dined on 8/8/2014I looked up several restaurants to find a very nice romantic place to take my wife. After reading several reviews I decided to eat here, since it was supposedly the most romantic restaurant in Pittsburgh. When we pulled up I was surprised to see the outside needed work. Not what I would expect from a fine dining restaurant. We decided on the prix fixe dinner so we could try a little bit of everything. Unfortunately nothing was that spectacular. The scallops we under cooked and the red snapper was over cooked. We have eaten at many fine dining restaurants and this is not one I would recommend. The service was great, the view was amazing, but the food was not that great and it was very loud.Special Features:
- Excellent!WikiDined on 8/2/2014A great place for site-view and birthday celebration with my BF. Love it and will be back!Special Features:
- Excellent food but pricey winesOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 8/2/2014This was our first time in this restaurant and we both agreed we would come back, regularly. Our only criticism was the mark up on the wine - it was ridiculous. Anywhere from 4-8x store cost; the sampler with your Sat dinner averaging about 6x. We did do the sampler with our dinner and although the wines were well chosen, not one bottle retailed over $20. We expected to overpay but we have never seen these kind of mark ups on what we would consider cheap wine. All things considered we would absolutely go back, the food was superb. For our future visit we will be more discerning in our wine choice.Special Features:
- The following 476 reviews are from the Isabela on Grandview reviews archive.
- One of my top 3, everCarlDined on 7/29/2014A summer Tuesday evening, early dinner. Essentially, we had a private room overlooking Pittsburgh and the junction of the 3 rivers. The server was knowledgeable, friendly, and because we were the only customers upstairs, free to discuss the menu at length. My spouse ordered the "Chef's Tasting", 7 courses; I had a main course and dessert, but was treated to the sorbet between my wife's other courses, anyhow. This place is so special that I would go back for certain. They even called on Monday to remind us politely of our reservation. If you don't mind the price, don't miss it.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great place for special celebrationvhinpghVIPDined on 7/17/2014We love going to Isabela's to celebrate something special. It is like a walk into a food network cooking show. They are very accommodating of food preferences/allergies even with the multiple course menu (there is even a vegetarian option). The waitstaff are very low key and pleasant, and while it is a special place, it is not at all pretentious. Our waiter, Ian, was wonderful. The little first course was black mission fig with goat cheese and was absolutely delicious and the halibut with mango sauce was amazing!Special Features:
- Missed stepMichaelDined on 7/7/2014We are frequent fliers at Isabella but this time the experience seemed flat. This was probably because the service was slow, disorganized and inadequate, whereas the food was as expected, fantastic and innovative. It is amazing how poor service can affect the dining experience.Special Features:
- Beautiful ExperienceKinja1998Dined on 7/4/2014This was our first visit to Isabella. The staff was welcoming and attentive. We were there on July 4th, and had a spectacular view of the the fireworks at Point State Park. The view is excellent without fireworks, though. The owner, George, was there dressed as Uncle Sam, and was a great hit with the customers. We think he is a perfect ambassador for the food scene in Pittsburgh. The food was imaginative, well-prepared, and definitely memorable. Excellent wine selection with a range of prices for any budget. I think any special occasion would be made even more special by celebrating it at Isabella on Grandview.Special Features:
- labsbeabmmDined on 7/1/2014We celebrated our 25th anniversary and couldn't be more pleased with the food or service.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Ultimate fine dining experiencejglovierDined on 6/30/2014Eight years ago next month I proposed to my wife at the Isabella on Grandview. Last weekend, we returned to celebrate her birthday. Both of my experiences at the Isabella have been amazing. The food is some of the finest dining I've ever encountered, the atmosphere is classy, and the view is unmatched. Both times we've had the Chef's tasting menu, and it was phenomenal. Highly recommend.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Excellent Service and FoodOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 6/27/2014We enjoyed spending our 27th Anniversary at Isabela on Grandview! The service was wonderful, from the time we entered until the time we left. We never felt rushed through our courses. The food was excellent, we very much enjoyed the Cheese Tasting Sampler as well as the presentation of our food. The Halibut was delicious as was the Steak. The view of the city was wonderful!!! We enjoyed every aspect of our evening at Isabela on Grandview.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Wonderful Anniversary dinnerMemisDined on 6/23/2014This was my 1st visit to Isabella and it was wonderful. We had the option of having the Chef's tasting menu or ordering ala carte. We decided on ala carte. We will usually order a cheese plate appetizer where it is offered and this was DEFINITELY the best we have ever had. In addition to the cheese it had homemade crackers, fresh figs, blackberries & nuts. The dinners and desserts were excellent! I had the Seven Falls chardonney from Washington state & it was great. The owner came to our table and also took a picture of my husband, daughter and I. He returned later and gave us a print out of it. We had a window table with a beautiful view of the city. I would definitely go back again!!!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

I adapted this from "The Unwatched Pot". It freezes very well. I add mushrooms when I reheat it. It makes lots of sauce, so it is nice over rice or noodles. If you use chicken with bones in it, cool and de-bone the chicken after cooking and then return to the stew.

Lesbian film DVD covers and what they tell us about ourselves
Recently, cracked.com put together the "8 Actors Who Look Exactly the Same on Every Movie Poster." It got me thinking that our movies have the same problem. OK, maybe "problem" is the wrong word, but we mos def have eerily similar DVD cover art and posters. One woman's trope is another woman's theme.
As for the movies themselves, you can learn a lot about the Wonderful World of Lesbians by watching them. Bound taught us that lock picks also make fashionable earrings. Some of you can thank The Kids Are All Right for adding "fecund" to your vocabulary. And I think we can all agree that Number 9 is a wanker, ballerinas are crazy, and if these walls could talk, they'd say Ellen DeGeneres has surprisingly nice boobs.
That said, you don't have to watch the whole movie to glean something about our lives — simply check out its DVD case. Let's take a look at some and see what we can see:
We Love to Laugh
Humorless lesbians? Nonsense. We love to laugh! Especially in groups of
three or four.
And look at Mary-Louise Parker, would you? She dies twice and is still as happy as can be.
Girls in Uniforms
There are tons of mainstream films about high school kids, but all of
ours go
to private school. Because we're elitists.

It's called the Circle of Life- Donate Blood for FREE ELTON JOHN TICKETS!
WHAT: When making plans tonight, decide on making time to a "save a life" as part of your to do list. No, it's not a scene of a movie or a phrase from a book, it's lyrics of life! You can stop by United Blood Services in Lafayette to volunteer to give life saving blood and complete the circle of Life. Area residents are asked to celebrate life to help meet the needs of our patients and ensure an adequate blood supply to area hospitals by donating blood. Each blood donation can help several patients. UBS wants to reward one lucky "Hero" to witness a performance of a lifetime to see Elton John in concert at the Cajun Dome, Lafayette, LA. "Life Savers" will be automatically entered to win a concert package that includes: Four Elton John concert tickets and a one night stay at the Hilton and Garden Inn Suites.
