Do you like to take pictures? Have you recently captured a shot of something neat on the Westside?
Palisadian and photographer Wendy Price Anderson sent in some photos from the 2013 CicLAvia bike ride on April 21. Anderson and her friend Vicki Warren rode their bikes from downtown Los Angeles to Venice Beach, a total of 30 miles round trip.
Anderson said one side of Venice Boulevard was closed for the bike ride, and it was the first year that they came this far west.
“We had a lot of fun and the day was hot and beautiful with gorgeous blue skies,” Anderson said, noting there were walkers, people walking dogs, skateboarders and lots of bikes.
Thanks for sending in these photos of such a great L.A. spring event, Wendy!

">Councilmember Bill Rosendahl Forms Partnership to Help Businesses Go Green
April 25, 2013 at 5:30 am
Councilmember Bill Rosendahl is joining forces with the non-profit Arts: Earth Partnership for a grant to help businesses in Venice go green.
The $5,000 grant is being provided by the Department of Cultural Affairs’ Council Civic Fund.
The funds will be used to cover the cost of a sustainability assessment for around 12 to 15 businesses and facilities in the 11th District which could include theaters, museums, and art galleries in the district, according to Rosendahl.
“This grant will help us grow green businesses in our district by teaching them how to achieve sustainability, become an even better neighbor in their local community, and save money in the long run,” Rosendahl said.
As part of the program, business owners will set up a comprehensive assessment through Arts: Earth Partnership that will include a review of everything from water and energy use to office supplies.
As a result, each business will receive detailed information about steps they need to take to become a Los Angeles City recognized Green Business.
Businesses can also receive special benefits and discounts as a result of their Green Certification.
To learn more about the free sustainability assessment or the green certification program, call (323)864-9130, or send an email to info@artsearthparternship.org.

">Tsujita L.A. Artisan Noodles ANNEX Ready to Serve
April 24, 2013 at 6:00 pmHey now, check out Tsujita L.A. Artisan Noodles ANNEX, the soup-centric offshoot of big brother Tsujita L.A. Artisan Noodle just across Sawtelle. Feeling a slight sense of déjà vu? With a simple, clean design and ample blonde wood, ANNEX is centered around its ramen bar, with extra seating offered up front.
This is still a small operation, opening tomorrow to satiate the crowds that descended over the past year and a half to Tsujita for its lunchtime “life-changingly good” ramen. Now though, with the addition of ANNEX, ramen service extends through dinner, with, hopefully (though rather unlikely), less of a wait.
