MORRIS PARK, Bronx
by Kevin Walsh August 20, 2006
As a neighborhood, Morris Park, located in what's about the exact center of the Bronx, appears to be one of the borough's most stable and long-standing, but it's actually only a few decades old and occupies what used to be a vast racetrack – come airfield -come road racing track; many of NYC's more "stabler" neighborhoods, such as Sheepshead Bay, Brooklyn, are located where the ponies used to run and automotive pioneers raced.
(LEFT) Morris Park Racetrack Clubhouse; above, Morris Park Racetrack grandstand, both in 1899. from McNamara's Old Bronx, John McNamara
The name Morris turns up a number of times in the Bronx, primarily from two different families: the Revolution-era Morrises: Richard, who arrived in the 1660s and first settled the South Bronx; Declaration signer Lewis, US Senator Gouverneur, and Robert, who was a 3-term NYC mayor in the 1850s.
The Morris of Morris Park was John A. Morris, whose Westchester Racing Association acquired 152 acres in 1888 on the outskirts of the old Bear Swamp (which was quite literally named) and built a huge racetrack and clubhouse there. As opulent as the racetrack was, though, it was in operation only from 1890 to 1904 (though a vestige of horse racing in the area, the Track Restaurant and Tavern, held down a corner at Eastchester and Williamsbridge Roads some distance from the old track until 1957). The track itself burned to the ground in 1910.
In 1908 the abandoned racetrack became the world's first formal airfield and the American Eagle, the largest dirigible in history to that time at a full 105 feet in length, was built there, and one of the first gliders, piloted by 17-year-old Lawrence Lesh, was launched from the former track that year. And, in the early 1900s, the old racetrack was also used for speed and endurance races for the newfangled automobile, and a young Swiss driver named Louis once won a gold watch for driving a Fiat a the-record 52.8 MPH there. The driver along with his brother Gaston competed in many road races at the Morris Park track and Gaston won at Indianapolis in 1920. Of course, it was Louis Chevrolet (1878-1941), who ironically sold his share in the Chevrolet Motor Car Company he founded in 1911 to original partner William Durant in 1915, and returned to the racing business, as well as aeronautics. (The gold watch he won had been donated by Walter Chrysler.)
It was not until the 1920s that streets were cut through and houses constructed; the neighborhood was not "completed" until the 1970s!
The portal to Morris Park (by public transportation, at least) is the East 180th Street IRT station, which boasts the most majestic station house in the system. The building, thankfully protected by landmark, was constructed in 1912 as a grand Italian villa station for the New York, Westchester and Boston Railroad that operated between the Bronx and Westchester from 1912 to 1937 (it never made it to Boston) and was subsequently sold to NYC and became the Dyre Avenue Line. Other station houses along the line have survived too.
A short walk west along East 180th Street will bring you to the FDNY Fire Alarm and Telegraph Bureau (right) built 1923 in an Italian Renaissance style. It's actually in West Farms, a Bronx crossroads that borders on Morris Park, Tremont and Crotona Park.
Morris Park Avenue
Morris Park Avenue marches northeast from the old NYW&B station to Hospital Row (see below) and forms the main commercial spine of the area. Like most of NYC's neighborhood main drags it has several mysterious items, at least to someone not from the neighborhood
Shot this through a wrought iron fence leading to an auto body shop. One of FNY's more enduing, or annoying traditions…name that car.
Looks like a 1936 Buick Special, according to some FFs.
The 180th Street/Unionport subway yards, are, of course, closed to the public, but a look through another fence on Morris Park Avenue provides a look at R-26 cars 7774 and 7775. These redbird cars were retired from passenger service in 2003. Cars of much older vintage are also stored there.
Unlike Forrest Gump's box of chocolates, you usually know what you're going to get on Morris Park Avenue.
New York City is nothing more than a collection of small towns and most New York neighborhoods are blissfully non-suburban in the sense, to put it simply, that all sorts of things are right next to each other. If you want to take your kid to chess lessons in the morning, he can walk across the street for boxing in the afternoon.
(LEFT) Wonderfully non-politically correct name for a movers.
Unionport Road, connecting Bronx Park and the old Bronx town of the same name (now a part of Castle Hill), runs past Morris Park Avenue and officially divides the neighborhoods of Morris Park and Van Nest. (Unionport was originally a sheep pasture and the road has been called Sheep Pasture Road in the past.)
Anchoring the SW corner of Unionport Rd. and Morris Park Avenue is this long-standing pasta wholesaler.
Know your pasta: cannelloni means "large pipes" or large reeds" in Italian and are tubes filled with flavorful fillings, more popularly "Mannicotti" in the USA.Gnocchi, pronounced approximately nyo' kee, literally "lumps," small dumplings made from a mashed potato and flour mixture with some egg as a binder; and agnolotti (an yo lat' ti), "priests' hats" are a variety of ravioli.
If I'm wrong about these descriptions…hit me with a wet noodle.
When Italian-Americans in the Bronx are mentioned, the guidebooks will usually direct the reader to Arthur Avenuein Belmont, famed for its many restaurants and delicacy shops, but Morris Park and Middletown, to the northeast, are not to be outdone and Morris Park Avenue is lined with pizza places and pasticcerias.
The flags are left over from the celebrations when Italy won the World Cup in July 2006.

One of Morris Park's little surprises is this peaked trio on Amethyst Street just off Morris Park Avenue.
Hospital Row
Ullmann Research Center at Newport Avenue (right) is part of Yeshiva University's Albert Einstein College of Medicine.
Jacobi Medical Center, on a vast plant between Pelham Parkway, Eastchester Road, Morris Park and Seminole Avenues, is the Bronx' largest public hospital. Also in the Bronx' Hospital Row are the Bronx Psychiatric Center, Montefiore Medical Center on Eastchester Road and Calvary Hospital, where your webmaster's father rested comfortably in his final days.
ForgottenFan Michael Szmyga: Where you refer to Jacobi Medical Center, there is a picture that shows a prominent grey building with lighter grey and red buildings in the back. The dark grey building is actually the Rose E. Kennedy Center which is a neuroscience research building part of the Albert Einstein College of Medicine (I'm actually a graduate student at Einstein, hence my now living in Morris Park and knowing which buildings are which). The two buildings in the background are Jacobi Medical Center itself with the red one being the recent addition that opened ~2006.
White Plains Road
White Plains Road, like many NYC streets, is named for a town where it doesn't go, at least not any longer. It's the only street in the Bronx that runs from the East River all the way to the city line at Mount Vernon, Westchester County. It doesn't go to White Plains proper…it changes to West 1st Street in Mount Vernon, but make a turn or two and you will arrive at NY Route 22, known as White Plains Post Road much of its length, which leads to the titular town. In fact, the Bronx' White Plains Road was laid out in 1863 and was named for fields of bright balsam flowers found along its route.
There are no pastoral scenes left along White Plains Road, but there is this brilliant aquamarine building at Rhinelander Avenue. A close inspection reveals its original function as a garage.
Probably not for your webmaster though. Exercise causes him pain and injury.
Cruger Avenue between White Plains Road and Bronxdale Avenue featured the boyhood home of ubiquitous TV personality Regis Philbin. But what would Reege say if he saw that the Department of Transportation has installed his sign on the wrong street?

Bronxdale Avenue
An Indian trail led through the farms belonging to the Fowler family in Revolutionary times, skirting Bear Swamp, which did in fact feature ursine mammals in the era. It led from the town of Westchester (now Westchester Square) to what is now Bronx Park and later carried the appallation Snuffmill Lane, since at the end of the road was the tobacco-producing Lorillard family's mail built in 1840, now part of the New York Botanical Garden. Bronxdale Avenue is one of the few roads even at present between Morris Park and Westchester Square, which are separated from each other by the tracks of the Metro-North RR and Amtrak.
On either side of Bronxdale Avenue and Antin Place are the magnificent Art Deco Bronx Park Medical Pavilion that formerly fronted a swimming pool, and a turreted Tudor tower. Walk up Cruger Avenue for some more Art Deco which rivals the Grand Concourse's collection.
We pause from the great Art Deco to point out these tiny bungalow-like homes on Hunt Avenue just around the corner. Forgotten Fan Don Gilligan surmises they could have housed trackworkers who built the NY, Westchester & Boston RR.
Here I go again..my, my, how can I resist Mamma Maria on Bronxdale and Morris Park Avenue. I haven't been inside but this place looks huge. 9/19/10: Now known as 900 Park
Forgotten Fan Charles Ferrari writes:
The Mamma Maria restaurant is actually just part of a shopping complex on the corner of Bronxdale and Morris Park, which was built about 10-15 years ago and has gone through some interesting turf wars. If you look at the bottom floor you can see a place called "For Kids Only" which is a daycare center. Originally, each storefront was a separate store, with Mamma Maria and For Kids only being two of them. Slowly, For Kids Only began to expand until it took up most of the building leaving only Mamma Maria and a Cafe. Then suddenly, I come back from college this summer to see Mamma Maria taking up the whole thing.
Barnes Avenue
The Bronx contains some long streets. There's the aforementioned White Plains Road, there's Tremont Avenue which runs from the Harlem River to Throgs Neck, Jerome Avenue, and Boston Road, which does go to Boston. Then there's Barnes Avenue, which begins at a trickle at a dead end past Van Nest Avenue in Morris Park and runs north to the city line at Mount Vernon…at a trickle. In fact Barnes Avenue is interrupted many times on its journey and contains four separate sections, the longest and widest being from Astor Avenue north to Bissel Gardens in Wakefield.
Like most of the Bronx' long streets it began life as a Native American trail, and has been known in several sections as Kingsbridge Road, White Plains Road (no connection to the other one), Cedar Street, and Madison Street. It's likely named for 1840s landowner Samuel Barnes, through whose farm part of the route was built.
Like the Tudor shown above at Bronxdale Avenue and Antin Place the avenue's angle through the area has produced buildings with distinctive triangular shapes that resemble the prows of sailing vessels such as this one at the SE corner of Barnes.
Just south of Bronxdale on Barnes we find this brilliant yellow building with a bright, enclosed porch.
Morris Park contains two of the Bronx' obscurest alleys, visible on only the most detailed maps, Barnett Place off Barnes Avenue between Rhinelander and Morris Park Avenues. As short as it is it does contain two handsome 2-story brick apartment buildings.
Carpet store sign, Barnes and Morris Park Avenues.
The other obscure Morris Park alley is Graham Place, which is a trickle of sidewalk leading north from Morris Park Avenue east of Matthews Avenue leading to a single house.
More Bronx alleys can be found here, here and here.
Turkish Cypriot Mosque, Morris Park Avenue and Graham Place.
The DOT has been doing a little lamppost experimentation along Morris Park Avenue (along with parts of Williamsbridge Road) in taking double-shafted telephone-pole mounted masts, painting them black and equipping them with neo-Bell mercury bulb luminaires. (Historically in NYC the double masts have always used Westinghouse "cuplights" at first, then Westy silverliners and GE M400s). First installed in about 2003, this style has yet to catch on elsewhere around town.
A group of streets in Morris Park along Jacobi Hospital sport Native american names: Seminole, Pawnee, and Narragansett. Originally these streets were part of a real estate development called Westchester Heights in the 1860s, and the developers decided to give the streets Indian-sounding names (Seminole was originally Saratoga Avenue.)
Pelham Parkway
The greenway/parkway known officially as The Bronx and Pelham Parkway (sort of like The Grand Boulevard and Concourse) runs from Boston Road east to Stillwell Avenue, connecting Bronx and Pelham Bay Parks, after which the greenway ends and the road becomes the Pelham Shore Road, running through Pelham Bay Park. Though not constructed by Frederick Olmsted and Calvert Vaux, the designers of Brooklyn's Ocean and Eastern Parkways, it follows their model of the parkway in its true sense; a park along which traffic runs. (And does so even more effectively than Brooklyn's entries!) Unfortunately there's no actual connection between the Bronx' two great parkways, Pelham and Mosholu.
Um, am I interrupting something?
I stopped by the Garabedian residence at 1601 Pelham Parkway North and found that their Christmas house looks pretty much the same in the summer as it does in December!
Bay Plaza at Co-Op City watches balefully over Waring and Delanoy Avenues.
OK, I can name that car at Gun Hill Road and Allerton Avenue, it's '52 Dodge!

My uncle was Dan Fasolino, who was part of Morris Park Realty for many years. My grandparents, Aniello and Nancy Fasolino owned Liberty Pizzeria. I grew up on Barnes and Morris Park. Many great memories of the neighborhood, Our Lady of Solace school and of the bakery across the street. The wonderful smells from the bakery after church are still how I judge other bakeries!

My sister and I were just talking about the Liberty Pizzeria this past Sunday!. We grew up on White Plains Rd near Rhinelander during the '60s. I graduated from OLS in 1969. We were at the Liberty all the time. I remember your grandmother so well – she was always so nice and friendly!

Hi, I grew up on White Plains Road, just past Morris Park. We used to go to Liberty Pizzeria all the time. This was in the early to mid sixties. Your grandma used to pinch my cheek whenever she saw me! Such a friendly woman! To this day, the best pizza I ever had! Wish I could go back in time to experience the Liberty Pizzeria once again.
Vinny Amarosa April 30, 2014 - 5:08 pm
This site is great! Brings back memories as I grew up on Pierce Avenue. The Mamma Maria's on Bronxdale and Morris park Avenues was a mini golf place and then a storage area behind the Van Ness Bowling Alley. This was the bowling alley in the movie Men in Black 3. In the summers of 1971 and 1972 this corner spot held the Bronxdale Little League's carnivals. Across the street to the northeast stood the Carvel's Ice Cream stand with its white sloped roof (now a RiteAid complex). The laundrymat on the southwest corner was a great pizza place in the 70's.

I remember the Triplets well and often think of them. Graduated PS 83 and Grace Dodge Vocational with Delores, Anna and Bernice. In fact I just pulled a picture of the three of them on their 13 birthday with their niece and nephew . Would be wonderful to hear how they are doing.
Always went to the Triplets for pizza especially after the dances at Our Lady of Solace .
Nicholas April 15, 2017 - 6:03 am
(The Triplets)That would be Anne Bernice and Deloris. my father and there dad were cousins. We rented from 1943 to 1952 there above apartment located at 872 kinsella street, the older sister Rita;was a waitresses at the Pizzeria :, I would as a kid of some 7 years old always in the morning head to Ralph's grocery store(Bronxdale ave; next to Van nest auto Parts)for her daily Drakes Devil Dogs..and a reward of some five cents to 15 cents Nikolai Gentile was the family name;( Gentile) In respect to a inquire. I had grown up in my childhood at 1842 Barnes ave, , and in turn in 1944 circa we moved to Kinsella street. A truly country setting in the nineteen forties, hardly no cars parked; some 3 on kinsella street (one was my Fathers 1939 Oldsmobile) a very quite time slot in america empty lots all over, as all of the new brick houses were built most all in the circa of nineteen fifties ,and another housing boom in the nineteen sixties) so; if you search about and look at those small brick house. , in my time there were all empty lots and wooded locations. One of the largest with left over hugh boulders would be the present location of that site . along Bronxdale ave, from Van nest ave to morris park ave. this was one of our our playgrounds for hugh Barn fires and other play activities of those day's. I will point out the site closets to Morris park ave, during the era of the morris park Racecourse(!889 to 1903) this was the carriage and horse and buggies parking lot for the Racecourse fans (with Money).Another large empty lot was along bronxdale ave. The present location of mastro Catering.This lot was in its time owned by the builder of the large 4 story building.(kinsella st at Bronxdale ave) this lot ran from Bronxdale ave to Van Nest ave. and was the playground of some 16 children,I was one of them,/ I will point out the building at Bronxdale ave, at kinsella street The builder and his son and some 23 others were killed in the late thirties , during construction of a building that collapsed at moshula Parkway. The father was waked in the building at the second floor his apartment, the son a bit down the street in his private house living room (As was still the custom) the streets on kinsella street and else where were empty of cars. kinsella street held some 3 cars most all of the. time, one was my fathers a 1939 Oldsmobile deluxe, Traffic and life was lived in a slow paced relaxed deliver. a very claim era in my time. Neighbors spent time with each other chatting almost on a daily bases and the young would greet any older person with the salutation of Mr; or mrs. i still remember it all including so many of the original residents that in that time were the original owners , who purchased there house new; along the streets of kinsella Street all in there late seventies. in that time of my youth. the dress was very causal old clothing and old dress.yes all worn dresses .

I remember Triplets Pizzera, but my family frequented Liberty Pizza Parlor (owned by the Fasolino family), as we lived only doors away from it in the apt. house at 1741 Barnes Ave. I have been bac to the old neighborhood over the years, but lived there from 1945 to 1955. We were right next door to Ceas chicjen marjet and Conti's. There was a shoemajer, then the Palumbo's house, Ochel's Deli, Liberty Pizza Parlor, a bar, Charlie's Meat Marjet. Waljed to Our Lady of Solace Grammar School (gone) & bought candy & vanilla cojes at Mac's Candy Store. In that neighborhood also was Izzie's and Burje's Bije Shop….& along Morris Parj Ave. Singer's Drugstore & Willie's Meat Marjet. The bus ran down Morris Parj Ave., but before that – there was a trolley. Great memories of a blessed childhood bacj in the innocent fifties. Joan (Volonino) Decjer, Bethlehem, PA.

Also, at the corner Mamma Maria's now occupies was an inground, outdoor trampoline area. Surprise that Conti's Bakery did not have a mention. Conti's has been in the neighborhood since the 1920's and has a great soda fountain. Also, it's speciality, Boston Cream Pie, is unrivaled.

I grew up on Rhinelander Ave & Victor st.circa 1964. Stokely Carmichael lived in one of those 3 peaked homes on Amithyst. They were down the block from P.S.34, which went through many changes when we played on Victor st. It was always locked up but that did not prevent all of us from playing softball & stickball there.I also remember that on the corner where Mamma Maria's (now 900 Park) is, used to be a miniature golf site & later on a trampoline place ! We only went to the Triplets when my folks had "extra" money, other than that we went to Liberty pizzeria for a night out. This article mostly covered Van Nest, the "heart' of Morris Park is really from Bronxdale to Eastchester rd. Oh & those little bungalows on Hunt ave were just that, they were summer rentals for the Bronxdale Swimming pool, that is now the Bronx Park Medical Pavillion. I still live here & have raised my 3 sons here. It is "my little town". It's nice to see kids who grew up with my sons buying houses here & raising their own family here.
Went to school with stokley; 1952 to 1954-P.S 34 He died some 15 years ago;,I had known the family very well, my future wife resied next dooor to the Carmichel family(Very nice people) Stokley was very low keyed in that time;He also was the scholl crossing guard for morris park ave, at lunch time; nicholas Di brino

Are you the Nicholas Di Brino whose mother was Tessie and you had a sister named Mary?
Think there was also another brother,Rocco, born in Italy?
If you are, the above maiden name would be familiar to you.
I just remember your mother being one of the nicest, sweetest persons living in that area, visiting with my mother.
They lived across the street from the then, Public Library . . .. and your father
used to come to my father on Wallace and Bronxdale to play Bocce.
I remember your sister Mary, being a very nice person too. Being a girl, myself, then, I remember you

Yes Ann Regina-I am that person today in my late seventies. I have never forgotten your family including your sweet mother;("""They don't make them like that any more : a saint""") I go back to when you lived on Barnes ave, and of course the Barbuto Open house where all were welcome at Wallace ave. Some 3 years ago I did contact your brother Patsy, and planned on visiting him, But I never went thru the visit.Regards And love; Nicholas Di Brino (Junior)

The MPI was the site of the old Colden Ave Tavern across from P&J Deli. Does anyone remeber in the mid-late 70's Trilpets changes hands and was run by a guy I think his name was Bruno and his wife. really nice folks.
I worked my teenage years at Dom's Deli (formerly Joe's) at 1555 Paulding Ave.
How about he Mister Softee truck that was ownered by Louie and then George? Or the Italian Ices from Patsy's Bakery
mike August 15, 2015 - 7:38 pm
Most of the time I would take my little sister to the outside window of Patsy's Bakery to get some Italian ices. We lived 1842 Lurting Avenue in the 60s and 70s. Does anyone remember Larry's Candystore on the northeast part of Lurting avenue & Morris Park? I moved away around 1979 and would like to know what ever happened to Larry. Mike

I grew up on Bogart Ave and Haight Ave and moved in the 60s. My grandfather owned Morris Park Hobby/Auto Shop on Morris Park Avenue. I would love to find any pix or info of his store. I enjoyed the posts and remember the bowling alley and mini golf, many wonderful pizzerias, Bruno's Deli, and Russo Bakery!
Steve Reina March 14, 2016 - 3:31 am
I grew up on Haight Ave and made many many trips to the Morris Park hobby shop, next to the A&P between Paulding & Colden Ave. It's been over fifty years ago, If I remember right the owners name was Abe, he was a real nice guy I loved that store, I was like a "Kid In A Candy Store" when I went in there. That;s where I purchased my first of many model planes, cars and all sorts of army vehicles. My cousin lived on Colden Ave and every time I walked to his house I would pass the hobby shop and either stop to look in the window or go inside to browse at all the cool things he had there. I lived and worked in the Morris Park area for forty years and have many fond memories of the area. I still visit friends in the area and whenever I drive past all the stores on the avenue, my wife and I play the trivia game of remember this and that, and the Hobby Shop is always mentioned!
Remember 'Lavelles'? I think Morris Park avenue off of Colden….or K and F variety five and dime?
Marie DeAngelis February 1, 2018 - 6:46 pm
Yes I remember Lavell's I believe Lavells' was the stationary store and K & F was the five and dime.
Frank Calciano August 21, 2018 - 6:06 pm
Lavalle was a toy store
Mike Emanuele October 2, 2018 - 1:49 pm
Frank. Are you related to Joe Calciano who was in my class at St Clare's, class of 1959? I also remember his older sister who may have joined the sisters who taught at SCS.

Hi, Anyone remember Tony's deli on Van Nest Ave? I lived at 807 Van Nest next to a bar and the entrance to a train yard. Use to collect newspapers and rags and sold them for pennies on Mathews Ave. Still miss the 10 cent ice from Conti's and their 35 cent banana split. I remember stick ball and kick the can on Barnes Ave and Van Nest and helping the Good Humor man up the hill with his bicycle truck. I lived there between 1948 and 1966. I went to OLS (Our Lady of Solace) and on Sunday's pick up sweet buns after church and the smell of old Italy as I walked home. Will never forget Morris Park.
""Amendola Says"' – I can say: yours truly remembers this family very well from the forties and fifties.of Van Nest ave across the street from the Gooddfellows bar; I also as a child of 7 would be sent to Tony's humble little grocery store at Van nest ave at Wallace ave.You are going back to the nineteen forties. ,If you are Sally .I will say my mother and father spent many days together in the nineteen forties;I do remember your mother and father and sister well as yet. My mother and father names
were Tessie and Nikolai Di Brino. . sincerely Nicholas Di brino(Junior)

Ppaolicelli August 31, 2017 - 9:27 pm
My grandfather owned a candy store around 1944 in morris park. Do you remember any names of the. CAndy stores in the neighborhood during that time period. His name was Al
John November 11, 2015 - 10:52 pm
The R26's were the last NYC rapid transit railcars manufactured by American Car & Foundry (ACF) of Berwick,PA in 1959 & 1960. The 7774-7775 twin unit originally had General Electric motors, and cars 7804 and above had Westinghouse propulsion. This was common practice in an effort to be fair to both companies, and was in effect to about the first days of the IRT.
John November 14, 2015 - 3:20 pm
I stand corrected. The R28's (7860-7959) manufactured in 1960 & 1961 were the last ACF cars, NOT the R26's. The rest of the comment is accurate. Kevin, perhaps you can edit the original comment by deleting the first sentence, and leaving the rest. Of course this reply would have to go as well. Many thanks in advance.

I lived on hunt ave. right off morris park, around the 80's. I remember the corner store had candy and arcade games and it always smelled like cigars I think the owner was named doodles, also clown town down the street and anthonys pizza was a lifetime ago
Mark December 28, 2018 - 11:18 am
Doodles and clowntown are long gone. Anthony's just relocated across the street in what was the Post office. My grandparents moved to Wallace Avenue in 1952 we have been here since then. This place is changing fast as is the whole Bronx.

Father was born on Rhineland ave between Amethyst & Victor street, went to School at PS 34. I grew up in this neighborhood, as did my brother. Know most of the places written about. Family home was sold in the early 2000's. I also remember when Kopals pharmacy had dozens of pictures in the windows of that area dating back to the late 1800's. Our house was in one of those old photos. It was 670 Rhinelander ave. The house my Dad was born in & my brother & I were raised. And yes the neighborhood is changing for the worst. I now live in NC & there is no such thing as an Italian Deli. Or a decent Pizzaria.. I also know Tom Parognoli as he lived across the street from me. My brother & I went to St. Dominic's. And I love reading all of these beautiful ITALIAN names..Most of the people here are older then me, but it still brings back great memories reading all the stories of how close people were & what a real neighborhood is like..
Al F. April 15, 2017 - 11:26 am
I live on Hunt Avenue and Van Nest and as a kid there was a candy store on one corner and grocery store and laundromat on the other. Went to St. Dominic's School when it first opened and spent most of my time playing stick ball on the street along with other games of that time. Born and raised there until I returned from Vietnam and left around 1970. Never will forget the good times I had growing up in the area. Remember going across White Plains Road to the Five Corners and Baldi's candy store. Went back this past year and could not believe how much the area has changed.
My grandfather owned a candy store in Morris park near the five corners. His name was Al. I was trying to find put the name of the candy store.
Pop's candy store and the Z & Z grocery store on the corners, Up Van Nest was a Italian bread store with fresh baked bread
Lived on Wallace ave and frequented the 3 stores and laundromat. Left in 56 to join the Air Force. Left Nam in Oct 1969.

I believe he worked out of a garage. This was 1953. Also Tony's
deli on Van Nest. My mother had an account there and I remember
Tony always wrote the price of each item on the brown paper bag to
show my Mother how much she owed. Wow those were the day's.
Pops rag man in 1952. old newspaper paid $1.10 for 100 pounds. not a garage but a small metal shed. Had a daughter, Albina.
Anthony Farfarana;s deli. Worked there 1953 thru 56. He taught me to write taps on the bags and keep accounts

Ken P. June 15, 2018 - 2:05 am
I grew up on Haight in the early 70's…Used to love going to Larry's for comic books, wrestling magazines and fountain sodas. Also next door was Carolinda's where we would buy greeting cards. Another store with fond memories was Kay and Eff, I would spend all day in there. Lavelle's used to be on Morris park near Bogart and then moved down the side block for a few years near the end. I remember eating pizza at Tony's (corner of Haight and Morris Pk.) and Carlo's pizza. On Saturdays my mom would "drag" me to Grand Union Supermarket at the corner of Morris Park and Williamsbridge and then send me to get the dry cleaning at the corner of Haight (where Dunkin Donuts is now). Great memories!
FRANK COSLETT November 9, 2018 - 9:34 am
Kenny those were the good ol days. So many stores have changed since we went to St. Francis. Hope you are well.
I lived at 1859 hunt ave from 1945 till 57. Our dad would take us to the Wallace tavern , there was a hole in the wall to the liberty pizza parlor he would have a beer while we waited for our order. I went to ols with the owners son , I think his name was sal. The candy store was up on the corner I can't it's name. The Williams brother live above the laundry mat on the corner of hunt and van nest.

The Native American Mimbres culture was centered on the large river valleys of southwestern New Mexico and southeast Arizona. During its "Classic" period (1000-1150 AD), the Mimbres produced a characteristic black-on white pottery decorated with geometric designs that often feature drawings of humans, animals, and insects. Our design is an artistic rendering one such vessel whose intended black areas were transformed into hues of orange due to varying conditions during the firing process.

Administrative Redesign
Building from the administrative review process conducted in Fall 2017, subsequent efforts, broadly categorized as 'administrative redesign', begin to take action in streamlining and improving the delivery of administrative functions. The functional areas in-scope are finance (including facilities and procurement), human resources and information technology.
Within the broader Administrative Redesign category of work, efforts follow three phases: conceptual design, detailed design and implementation.
Click on a header to expand a selection and uncover additional information about each topic.
Conceptional Design Phase
March - April, 2018
Over several sessions, workstream teams comprised of representatives from each campus (CFOs, CHROs and CIOs) worked together on principles and a tentative operating model for their respective function.
These tentative models were constructed using an information-driven approach, utilizing data gathered during the recent Activity Analysis and Voice of Customer surveys.
Conceptual Designs
The result of these collaborative efforts was a proposed future-state service delivery and conceptual model for each functional area; each was presented as a topic of discussion during the Collaborative Design Session. The full set of materials presented, which includes the conceptual designs, is available in the Collaborative Design Session section below.
Collaborative Design Session
More than 100 campus and system leaders, including the chancellors, vice chancellors, vice provosts, deans, and staff and faculty council members, gathered for a day-long meeting to discuss concepts for transformations in Finance, HR and IT. View photos from the event.
The work teams shared the iterative conceptual designs informed by the expertise of the functional leads and their collective analysis of the data gathered from the Activity Analysis and Voice of Customer surveys and instrumental feedback from members of advisory groups.
In addition to the conceptual designs, participants heard from colleagues about recent successful initiatives at the college level and were encouraged to reflect on their own operations in a similar fashion.
The diverse and honest input from the participants will improve planning and implementation of the detailed design phase.
No final decisions were made during the session, nor specific actions taken, but there was agreement to the conceptual models presented and to move forward into a more detailed design phase.
View a summary of the discussion and feeback received during the Collaborative Design Session below, or read the full set of presentation materials for the Collaborative Design Session (PDF, 1.3MB). Review the slides covered in the video (PDF, 249KB), or watch the fullscreen video on Youtube:
Detailed Design Phase
May - June, 2018
Building from the high-level concepts of earlier phases, work in the detailed design phase further develops the individual projects that met the concepts and priorities discussed in the Collaborative design session.
The processes being redesigned are prioritized based on where changes provide greatest opportunity for cost savings and/or service improvement as discussed in the collaborative design session.
The listing of projects and high level project plans will be shared on this webpage with regular updates.
The administrative redesign program will begin more frequent communications with success stories and learnings from different campuses and units to provide units with ideas of how processes have already been improved in other parts of the organization.
The detailed design phase is currently underway. Information about the detailed designs for each functional area will be added as work is completed. An update will be presented to the Board of Curators during their June meeting (refer to meeting information for additional details).
Implementation Phase
Any implementation of changes resulting from the efforts outlined above would occur after developing detailed roadmaps (including timing, organizational changes and/or job impacts) and working with University leadership to gain the necessary approvals. Information will continue to update as projects progress.

Willi Boskovsky became world famous in 1954 when he succeeded Clemens Krauss as conductor of the Vienna Philharmonic's New Year's Day Concerts (broadcast first on radio and later television), although he had been concertmaster of the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra since 1936. He was also the chief conductor of the Johann Strauss Orchestra of Vienna until his death. Instrumental in reviving the 'Vorgeiger' tradition set by Johann Strauss I—conducting an orchestra from the violin—Boskovsky was highly acclaimed for his direction of Strauss's music, carrying off the well-loved style with ease, lightness and humour.
Boskovsky graduated from the Vienna Academy in 1927. He led his own quartet with Philipp Matheis (second violin), Gunther Breitenbach (viola) and Nikolaus Hübner (cello); players who, with Johann Krump (double-bass), Alfred Boskovsky (clarinet), Josef Veleba (horn) and Rudolf Hanzl (bassoon) formed the Vienna Octet and made several recordings that are still favourites today.
Notably, Boskovsky's 1979 New Year's Day Concert was recorded live by Decca in the first commercial use of their proprietary PCM digital system. The resulting two-LP set was received by The Gramophone magazine as 'a riotous issue […] astoundingly vivid and atmospheric' and has been re-released in the Decca Legends series.
Few violinists could more accurately claim to embody Viennese style and upbringing than Boskovsky, but his playing on record is an acquired taste. For many, his almost perfect tone is the epitomy of Romanticism and richness; for others he reduces the trials and tribulations of compositional greatness to mere chocolate-box fancies. Thus, Beethoven's Septet, Op. 20 (1950) and Mozart's Violin Concerto K. 216 (1960) are played with great beauty, but transformed from seminal works to high-class background music by an indefinable quality of tonal perfection. Some recordings, such as Brahms's Op. 115 Clarinet Quintet (1961), have much greater depth and intensity, whilst two 1950s recordings of Schubert's 'Trout' Quintet made with Walter Panhoffer and Clifford Curzon respectively are suitably entertaining. A live 1950 recording of Brahms's Double Concerto (with Emanuel Brabec on cello) suffers from Furtwängler's characteristically turgid tempi and is awash with clumsy phrasing, but allowances should perhaps be made for the fact that Boskovsky and Brabec were pulled out of the VPO as late stand-ins for Menuhin and Casals.

A new study compares music therapy with standard therapy.
They found that adding music therapy improves depression recovery.
According to the NIH, 17.3 Million American adults had at least one episode of major depression every year, making it one of the most common conditions in the United States.
Depression is also a major driver of mortality.
Medications work well for depression, but they are only one part of the picture. Not all patients respond well to medication, and they are not always effective on their own in treating depression. Medications work best as part of a comprehensive treatment strategy.
Music therapy has been suggested as a possible complementary therapy for depression. However, previous studies have been relatively small and of lower quality.
A team out of Finland looked to change that by conducting a higher quality clinical trial of music therapy.
Researchers split 79 patients with a Major Depression diagnosis into a treatment group and control group.
All patients received psychotherapy, counseling, and medication if needed. Only patients in the treatment group received music therapy from train music therapists who encouraged patients to play music on a drum, percussion instrument, and a mallet instrument.
Researchers found a rapid improvement in depression symptoms over 3 months in the patients who received music therapy. At the end of the study, patients who received music therapy had a significantly higher improvement in their depression symptoms than control patients who only received standard depression treatments.
Researchers also looked at changes in anxiety symptoms. Anxiety is a common comorbidity with depression, meaning that depressed patients often have anxiety as well.
They found that over the course of the study, patients who received music therapy had significantly fewer anxiety symptoms compared to those who did not.
While this study was not designed to look specifically at Anxiety Disorders, other studies have found music therapy to be an effective treatment for anxiety when used alongside standard therapies.
One of the most important takeaways from this study is that music therapy can make a significant impact for many depressed patients when used alongside standard therapies.
Consistent with previous research, patients in this study were significantly more likely to at least partly recover from depression when they received music therapy.
While the study only looked at one type of music therapy, it would be interesting to see if music in general, both listening and playing, has any impact on depression.
One possible weakness of this study was that the control patients did not receive the same amount of therapy as music therapy patients. From this study design, we do not know whether it was the "music" that led to the improvements seen, or whether these improvements came from having more therapy overall.
All in all, this study provides good support for what looks like a great therapeutic option for depressed patients.


The No. 3 Sun Devils finished their non-conference schedule and continued their win streak after beating Pacific (5-8) with ease, 104-65, on Friday afternoon.
"It was a great way for us to close out the non-conference and put an exclamation point on that and close that chapter," ASU head coach Bobby Hurley said after the game. "It's been a great run and ride so far, I thought the guys delivered a spectacular performance again today."
ASU remains undefeated, but face a tough road trip to start conference play, including the much-anticipated matchup against No. 18 Arizona at the McKale Center, followed by games at Colorado and Utah.
ASU (12-0) took care of business in front of an exceptional crowd during an afternoon game days before Christmas to record its 12th win of the season. Senior guard Shannon Evans II led all scorers with 21 points, while senior guard Tra Holder continued his consistent offensive display by adding 19 points on 7-for-12 shooting.
With Christmas around the corner, however, it was junior forward De'Quon Lake who handed out blocks as presents. He finished the game with 12 points, nine rebounds and seven blocks.
Though ASU has struggled to start off games this season, that was not the case today as they put the game out of reach within the first 10 minutes.
Seven straight baskets in a span of over six minutes highlighted the first half and set the tone for the Sun Devils, starting at the 11:22 mark with a Vitaliy Shibel dunk after he recovered a loose ball. Evans II made his third three of the game to put the Sun Devils up 38-16 and give them their seventh field goal of the span.
Freshman guard Remy Martin has embraced the spotlight and the role of getting the crowd into the game, as he did in the second half of the game.
The freshman guard pushed the ball up the court after a rebound, dribbled behind his back to gain separation and dropped off a no-look pass to sophomore forward Mickey Mitchell for the fast break layup to get the crowd on its feet and give ASU the 70-47 lead with 8:08 left to play.
His energy was felt throughout the arena and it is something his teammates and coach have repeatedly said they thrive off of.
The unbeaten Sun Devils travel to the McKale Center to play rival Arizona next week, something Hurley hopes both fan bases take part in.

"The infamous "27 Club" claims as its members celebrities who unfortunately never made it to their 28th birthdays. With members like Janis Joplin, Jimi Hendrix, Jim Morrison, and Kurt Cobain, it's the kind of membership a star would otherwise be eager to share. Regardless of creepy coincidental expiration clubs, or the even more morbid celebrity death pools, it's a tragedy when a celebrity, or anybody really, is taken before their time. Here's a list of stars who left us just as their lights shone the brightest.
- Chris Farley:
Just two years out from his star-making run on SNL, Chris Farley died at 33 of an overdose from mixing cocaine and morphine. His notorious drug-use mirrored his larger than life persona, both of which masked his insecurities as a comedic performer. Attempting rehab an astounding 17 times, Farley couldn't beat back his personal demons, but it wasn't for lack of effort. He died reportedly earning $6 million per movie, a huge indicator of the star power he sadly never saw in himself, especially considering where plenty less talented SNL alumni end up. Nobody's paying Chris Kattan $6 million for a Mango movie. That's never happening, ever.
- Phil Hartman:
Another SNL legend, Phil Hartman, died at 49 at the hand of his own wife in a horrific murder-suicide that would have Dateline producers foaming at the mouth. Beloved by costars and fans alike, Hartman dominated the TV comedy world with impressions, voicework, and acting, from SNL to News Radio to The Simpsons. There was nothing he couldn't do, including movies, in which he stole any scene he was in, like his bizarre Alcatraz prison guard character from So I Married An Axe Murderer. There is no doubt we would have seen Hartman crushing it for years on both the big and small screens.
- Heath Ledger:
Posthumously earning an Oscar has to be the biggest indicator that an actor died at the exact apex of his career. Granted, we believe Heath Ledger would have continued churning out fantastic performances had he not accidentally overdosed on prescription drugs at age 28, but nobody can argue that his Joker in The Dark Knight would have been the game changer for his craft. He would have been able to name his own price after that, and would have brought some much-needed flare to the solemn tome that was The Dark Knight Rises. Seriously, Nolan, Catwoman kills Bane? Fine, whatever, you were depressed. You get a pass.
- River Phoenix:
At the age of 23, River Phoenix already had an Oscar nomination, played Young Indy in Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, and starred in the classic Stand by Me in one of his earliest movie roles. Poised to be the next leading man, Phoenix overdosed on morphine and cocaine and died outside The Viper Room, Johnny Depp's famous rock club in Hollywood. Those coveted roles Phoenix was poised for? Oh, they just went to guys like Brad Pitt, Christian Slater, and Leonardo DiCaprio, so use that as an indicator for the level of fame Phoenix was on track to achieve.
- Philip Seymour Hoffman:
Already established as a veteran actor who could tackle comedy or drama with the performance reliability of a Volvo, Philip Seymour Hoffman died at the stage of his career where just lending his name to a project gave it credibility. The Hunger Games, anyone? Succumbing to a heroin overdose at 46, Hoffman left behind performances in films like God's Pocket and The Master, which both demonstrated his powerful ability to woo the audience towards even the most despicable characters. This guy was a modern classic, truly one of our most gifted performers.
- Tupac Shakur:
Undoubtedly one of the most successful rappers of all time, Tupac Shakur represented west coast hip hop despite being born and raised in Harlem. He died at the age of 25 in a high-profile Las Vegas drive-by shooting, speculated to be directly related to the east-west hip hop feud— Shakur previously beefed with east coast rival Biggie Smalls both in and outside the recording booth. Despite the still mysterious circumstances of his death, Shakur was so dominant in the rap game that he topped the Billboard charts while serving a prison sentence, and released seven posthumous albums, not counting two live performance albums and 13—yes 13—more compilation, remix, and soundtrack albums. To say he was only getting started when his life was cut short would be an obvious understatement.
- The Notorious B.I.G.:
Like Tupac before him, Christopher "Biggie Smalls" Wallace died violently in a drive-by shooting, also wildly attributed to the east coast-west-coast beef, though later investigations revealed both shootings were a result of gang affiliations with the Crips. Wallace died at 24, just before the release of his aptly titled double album, Life After Death, which skyrocketed to the top of the charts. With only one critically acclaimed album under his belt before that, Wallace was on the very cusp of an already influential career. Leaving us with such a small catalog to enjoy, as well as jump-starting Diddy's solo career, B.I.G.'s death left a wave of disappointment. Seriously, remember when Diddy was just the guy reminding Biggie about his flight times?
- Lisa "Left Eye" Lopes:
It's not always drugs or violence that claim the young life of a celebrity. Car accidents can happen to anyone, and a particularly bad one left Lisa "Left Eye" Lopes dead at the age of 30. The feisty, rapping component of TLC, Lopes and the group were set to release their fourth studio album which followed FanMail, the album that featured "No Scrubs," a song that as of this writing still gets radio play more than a decade later. With eight other number one singles under their belt, TLC was the female R&B group to beat until Lopes died.
- Aaliyah:
Preceding her fellow R&B star, Lisa "Left Eye" Lopes, in a tragic vehicular accident, Aaliyah died at 22 in a plane crash after shooting a music video for what would become the hit single, Rock The Boat. She had also just completed Queen of the Damned, a questionable pile-on to the early 2000s vampire craze, but it was a starring role for her nonetheless. A true triple threat, she had the looks, voice, and acting chops to follow in the famous footsteps of other successful singer-turned-actresses, including Whitney Houston, Cher, and Madonna, to name a few".

UK researchers are to evaluate the potential of Google Glass to support people with Parkinson's disease by helping them retain their independence for longer.
Not yet available on a commercial basis, the smart glasses (pictured) have begun to be explored in a variety of clinical settings, including the operating theatre.
The latest trial is the first time Google Glass will have been tested in Parkinson's and uses devices donated by Google to Newcastle University for tests of their potential to support long-term conditions.
"Glass opens up a new space for exploring the design and development of wearable systems," said Dr John Vines, a PhD student co-leading the project.
Initial studies of the voice-operated, internet-enabled wearable computer involve a group of Parkinson's volunteers aged between 46-70 years and have so far focussed on the acceptability of Google Glass.
The trial, which was co-funded by the UK's innovation agency, the Technology Strategy Board, will now involve using the technology to provide discreet prompts linked to key behaviours typical of Parkinson's, such as reminding the individual to speak up or to swallow to prevent drooling.
Google Glass can also be used as a personal reminder for things such as medication and appointments and the study will also explore how the motion sensors in Glass can be used to support people with 'freezing', a behaviour caused by 'motor blocking', a common symptom of Parkinson's.
The Newcastle University team behind the study will later present their initial findings at the ACM Human Factors in Computing Systems (CHI) 2014 conference in Toronto, Canada. There they will show how emerging technologies can potentially be used to support people with progressive diseases such as Parkinson's and dementia.


Childrens Books on Death - Are They Really Necessary?
Whether a child is dealing with the death of a pet or loss of a best friend, childrens books on death often help kids cope with their grief and loss.
Explaining death to young children is a sensitive matter.
Being honest with children and encouraging them to ask questions is good advice, according to Kids Health for Parents.
Helping kids feel safe to express their feelings, whatever they are, is important so kids know that w hatever they are feeling is OK.
Childrens books on death can sometimes open up avenues of communication between children and their parents.
Obviously, coping with death for most of us and dealing with the grief that accompanies the loss of a close friend or family member can be challenging.
Typically, men have been taught to be strong and to hide their feelings. But men who participate in explaining death to children have the chance to show their children their own vulnerable, softer side.
In times of grief and loss, and children coping with death, the heart rules. Men can definitely empower their kids in their manner of explaining death to children.
In eastern countries, death is a natural part of life. People believe they have a soul and that their soul lives on even while their body dies.
In the USA, many people are afraid to talk about death, especially their own death.
Yet, death is one of the few certainties we all experience in life. The more we understand it, the better prepared we are for it.
What are we afraid of in not talking about death? As 9/11 showed the US population, death comes unasked for, unannounced, unplanned.
Here's some rhyming words that are appropriate from HeartMinders: Spiritual Lightposts Reminding Your Heart to Love, a book I wrote a few years ago.
to soar high in the sky.
love those who are near.
Many people from other parts of the world face war daily. They know their end time can arrive at any moment.
And children in these countries see death all around them.
deal with death play an important role in child development.
An excellent site gives an extensive list of childrens books on death and dying.
These are childrens books that help children cope with death and grief.
An important aspect to helping your child deal with the loss of a friend, in pet or human form, is to remember that we are each unique children of a Loving Creator.
There is no right or wrong way to grieve, there are no right or wrong feelings, we each, whether child or adult, must experience the stages of grief to heal.
Online childrens books on death might offer worksheets explaining death to children, and maybe even writing exercises where children can deal with their grief.
What is important in writing childrens books on death is that the words for writing childrens books be appropriate for the age of the children to read each book.
There are stages of grief in children just as there are stages of grief in adults.
The more each parent understands the stage of grief her child is in, the easier communication is and the more the parent can help out.
A further look at grief and children has a chart with the different age ranges and what behaviors change as children experience a death.
Beginning at age 9 and older, children begin understanding that everyone will die, including them. They understand death is a part of life that cannot be changed.
The childrens books on death you introduce to and share with your children at this stage can have a lifetime impact.
A childrens book that deals with death came to me during the Christmas holidays in 2002. It's an inspirational Christmas story called A Christmas Gift from Santa Maria.
ATTN Visitors: I feel to the core of my being that from time to time I am gifted with childrens books, that a source outside myself makes me receptive to write the story down but that it's not really me writing it down.
This actually is a great benefit because I don't get wrapped up in thinking what a great writer I am. I give credit to the Universe, being very grateful and thankful for the gift.
A Christmas Gift from Santa Maria is a book that arrived unexpected, unasked for, unanticipated.
I was recovering from a cold, my step daughter was visiting my wife and I in our Baja, California home moments from the Pacific Ocean in beautiful Todos Santos.
As my wife Lili and step daughter Mira enjoyed the holidays, I spent most of it in bed. Two days after Christmas, while lying there, A Christmas Gift from Santa Maria arrived.
It's about how one family deals with the illness of their 13 year old daughter and how their views on death change.

For the regular cleaning of polished stone tiles we recommend using a specialist cleaning product such as Tile Doctor Stone Soap which helps maintain the patina. Avoid the use of steam cleaners and if you wish to use another product please read the label in detail first, most supermarket tile cleaners are acidic which can prematurely erode the sealer.


Joust helps you find lower home loan rates. When you use Joust, you avoid having to wade through the complexities of unnecessary or low value home loan features. This means you may not need help from an accountant or a mortgage broker. Many of our Banks bid with great interest rates with those annoying hidden fees and costs removed.
At Joust we believe good customers should be rewarded. Why do new customers receive lower home loan interest rates than existing long-term customers?
Many banks offer 'honeymoon rates' to new customers. These honeymoon rates are introductory rates and only last for a certain amount of time.
We believe it's a great time to Joust - when you have an existing home loan. To benefit the most from the competitive tension that Joust creates, you'll ideally have a reasonable credit score, a steady income and at least 5% equity in your home, or a 5% deposit.
Joust is saving good customers thousands of dollars every year by cutting out the middle man. Banks are bidding with great interest rates with most of those annoying fees and costs removed.
Under the competitive tension created by the Joust live auction environment, Joust opens up opportunities for lower home loan rates than you would normally have access to otherwise.
Using your profile information, banks can often do more than quote you a pre-existing, standard deal or rate. They are motivated to consider your profile then compete in real time and beat rival offers.
Joust can help you obtain lower home loan rates to refinance your home.

Born, raised and living in Manresa, Barcelona since 1980, I was the kid at school who was always drawing so I was sent off to art classes where I was introduced to many painting techniques and got heavily influenced by the American underground comic artists. I went on to study graphic design in Barcelona, which led to work leading graphic teams for various companies and in 2005, I started my own studio Grafficants. As time went by, I focused more and more on illustration projects. I rarely sign my work with the Grafficants tag nowadays as my work is now more individual and personalized, so I use my name instead. This work is mostly for bands and the music industry, coupled with developing visual identities for companies and hand painted murals.
Music, skateboard imaginary, lowbrow art and classic comics.
I've owned Vans since I can remember, but I had a big crush on a pair of skull pattern Era's.

Denny Hamlin Wins Second Straight Daytona 500
By admin on February 18, 2020 5:36 am - No Comment
Daytona Beach, FL…(NASCAR)..Denny Hamlin won his second consecutive Daytona 500 in a photo finish with Ryan Blaney on Monday night at Daytona International Speedway, the second closest finish in the history of the "Great American Race." Hamlin passed Blaney after a wreck broke out behind them. Ryan Newman was taken to a local hospital following the last-lap wreck. According to a Roush Fenway Racing statement, Newman is being treated at Halifax Medical Center. He is in serious condition, but doctors have indicated his injuries are not life threatening.
Hamlin is the fourth driver to win back-to-back Daytona 500s, joining Richard Petty (1973-74), Cale Yarborough (1983-84) and Sterling Marlin (1994-95). His No. 11 Toyota officially cleared post-race inspection. NASCAR also announced it will take the No. 6 Ford of Newman and the No. 32 Ford of Corey LaJoie back to the NASCAR R&D Center for further evaluation.
Behind Hamlin and Blaney at the finish were Chris Buescher, Newman's teammate at Roush Fenway Racing; David Ragan, fourth in a one-off after retiring from full-time racing; and Kevin Harvick. Newman was credited with a ninth-place result behind Bowyer (sixth), Brendan Gaughan (seventh) and LaJoie.
Following inclement weather that delayed the race from Sunday to Monday, the race resumed on Lap 21. Chase Elliott won Stage 1, and Hamlin triumphed in Stage 2, before, in typical fashion, the intensity ramped up in the closing laps.
A chain-reaction crash that started when Joey Logano bumped Aric Almirola into Brad Keselowski on Lap 184 involved 19 of the 37 cars still in the race and eliminated Keselowski and seven-time champion Jimmie Johnson (likely making his last Daytona 500 start).
A nine-car wreck in Turn 1 on Lap 199 collected Logano and Almirola and forced overtime. The first set of extra laps had scarcely begun when a three-car incident in the tri-oval saw Michael McDowell and Clint Bowyer spinning through the infield. That wreck set up the second overtime and finish.

Oops! Drone drops off package full of drugs and contraband at school instead of prison

A drone bound for a prison dropped off a package containing contraband items at a nearby Virginia school by mistake.
According to the Brunswick County Sheriff's Office, an employee at Brunswick Academy in Lawrenceville called to say that a suspicious package was found on the school campus. Deputies inferred that the drone was intended for a nearby prison.
When deputies arrived and opened ethe package, they discovered several pounds of marijuana and tobacco, as well as other contraband items such as three cellphones and a USB-C to lightning converter. The package weighed five pounds.
A witness told deputies that they saw a drone land on school grounds around 5:40 a.m., and later saw a dark colored sedan retrieve the drone.
"It's like something you would see in Hollywood, like watching one of these sitcoms or one of these prison movies, and you see that and think 'well, that's not reality," Brunswick County Sheriff Brian Roberts said.
Brunswick Academy is a "co-educational private school" that offers classes from preschool through high school in a "Christian environment," and is located nearby the Lawrenceville Correctional Center.
The sheriff's office wrote on Facebook that this wasn't the first report of a drone delivering illicit packages.
"We have had numerous calls for service at the prison this year to include other drone sightings alleging the same criminal activity," the post said.
A spokesman for the GEO group, the private company that runs the jail, said: "like many correctional facilities across the country Lawrenceville Correctional Center faces challenges related to the use of drones for the introduction of contraband in a correctional setting."
An investigation regarding the incident is currently underway.
Lawrenceville is 70 miles outside of Richmond.

UNFORGIVABLE (2011)

You don't need a degree in psychology or history to realize that the past is always with us. You can't escape its impact. Its memory will leave with feeling of guilt but also haunting regressions of past loves: familial, platonic and romantic. If you're a filmmaker, whether in the seat of the director or the writer, you need the skill to bring an audience along for the ride, which in the case of UNFORGIVABLE involves the passage of years, even decades. That's where André Téchiné comes into the picture, so to speak. Téchiné, considered by some to be France's greatest living director, is remembered by film buffs for telling complex stories in exotic or provincial settings, honing in on the travails of youth as in WILD REEDS, linking two eighteen-year-old friends, the brother of one who marries to escape the war in Algeria, and a bond between one young man and a classmate who wants to marry his brother's wife.
Six people of assorted ages and sexual proclivities are likewise linked in UNFORGIVABLE, which stars the versatile Carole Bouquet, fluent in French, Italian and English and who has appeared in such diverse films as FOR YOUR EYES ONLY as a Bond girl and the Luis Buñuel's surrealist THAT OBSCURE OBJECT OF DESIRE, made thirty-one years ago. Still a knockout at fifty-four, Bouquet inhabits the role of Judith, a French ex-pat and real estate agent in Venice who is contacted by Francis (André Dussolier), a best-selling author looking to rent a place on the nearby island of Sant' Erasmo. In a bold move, he offers to sign immediately if she will move in with him. She's astounded, "you don't even know me," but a year or so later the two are married.
In portraying people in this character-driven drama, Téchiné, using a screenplay he co-wrote with Mehdi Ban Attia from a Prix Jean Freustié-winning novel by Philippe Djian, provides enough twists to satisfy fans of Alfred Hitchcock. The trajectory elicits the bi-sexual real estate agent's long-ago affair with former private investigator Anna Maria (Adriana Asti), the violent Jérémie (Mauro Conte) who is Anna Maria's son, Alice (Mélanie Thierry) in the role of the author's runaway daughter, and Alvise (Andrea Pergolesi), who is Alice's boyfriend and who might be involved in the drug trade.
We in the audience are kept on our toes, wondering about the seemingly irrational explosions of violence as between the writer and Anna Maria's jailbird son, and between Jérémie and a gay man who clumsily attempts to seduce him. We are surprised not only that a woman as independent-minded as Judith would even consider marriage to a man who looks twenty years older than she (in reality she is fifty-four to his sixty-six) and that conversely, a best-selling writer would be so dependent on his wife that he asks her to cancel a business trip to London and has her tailed to find out whether she is engaging in hanky-panky.
The acting all-around cannot be faulted, though Julien Hirsch's filming in and around Venice during all four seasons appears almost desaturated. Moments of violence aside, this film is for those who revel in (or at least do not mind) the penchant of French directors to encourage lots of talk, and for those who can overlook the fact that while the characters are ultimately linked, it takes time to uncover the kinships.
