Layered Strategy: The LAYERED APPROACH extends across a thick section, creating multiple lines of defense that will not fail singularly and catastrophically. Shallow water ecosystems can be restored to step down risk faced by coastal communities and to rebuild diverse habitats.

The lit city scape of New York City illuminates against the light blue background of dusk. This photo was taken from inside of Central Park looking south.
I harvested the garlic scapes (flower buds) from my garlic today and made pesto. Delicious!! It's a good idea to cut the scapes off because it makes the garlic put more energy into the bulb, so you get more garlic. Plus the scapes are absolutely delicious, it's worth growing garlic just for the scapes.
Garic Scape Pesto
- A couple handfuls of garlic scapes
- A couple handfuls of basil
- About 1/2 cup toasted pecans
- About 1/4 cup parmigiano-reggiano cheese
- A few TBSP olive oil
- Sea salt to taste
Combine all ingredients in a food processor and process until it reaches the desired consistency. Taste as you go, start off with a small amount of oil and add more to taste.
Dar la espalda y escapar... una opción... pero no es mi estilo...

These curly stalks are the garlic flower buds. They have to be broken off the plant so that the energy goes into the bulb rather than the flower. If left to mature, they will produce small bulbils which can be planted to produce garlic, but the parent plant will have a small head and the plant grown from the bulbil will also have a small head and is not what we're looking for in commercial production.
Candle House is a new residential building in the Leeds Granary Wharf scheme, designed by Carey Jones.
The building was named after the candle and tallow packing warehouses that used to reside on this site, as well as the obvious shapely similarity.
To the right is the the ubiquitous Bridgewater Place.
The two Chinese characters in the name "Shanghai", (上, shàng; and 海, hǎi) literally mean "up, on, or above" and "sea", respectively, evident of Shanghai's location next to the East China Sea. The earliest occurrence of this name dates from the Song Dynasty (11th century), at which time there was already a river confluence and a town with this name in the area. There are disputes as to how the name should be interpreted, but official local histories have consistently said that it means "the upper reaches of the sea". Due to the changing coastline, Chinese historians have concluded that in the Tang Dynasty Shanghai was literally on the sea, hence the origin of the name.[14] However, another reading, especially in Mandarin, also suggests the sense of "go onto the sea," which is consistent with the seaport status of the city. A more poetic name for Shanghai switches the order of the two characters, Hǎishàng (海上), and is often used for terms related to Shanghainese art and culture.
Shanghai is commonly abbreviated in Chinese as Hù (沪). The single character Hu (沪) appears on all motor vehicle license plates issued in Shanghai today. This is derived from Hu Du (沪渎), the name of an ancient fishing village that once stood at the confluence of Suzhou Creek and the Huangpu River back in the Tang Dynasty.[15] The character Hu is often combined with that for Song, as in Wusong Kou, Wu Song River, and Songjiang to form the nickname Song Hu. For example, the Japanese attack on Shanghai in August 1937 is commonly called the Song Hu Battle. Another early name for Shanghai was Hua Ting, now the name of a four star hotel in the city.[16] One other commonly used nickname Shēn (申) is derived from the name of Chunshen Jun (春申君), a nobleman and locally-revered hero of the Chu Kingdom in the 3rd century BC whose territory included the Shanghai area. Sports teams and newspapers in Shanghai often use the character Shēn (申) in their names. Shanghai is also commonly called Shēnchéng (申城, "City of Shēn"). The city has also had various nicknames in English, including "Paris of the East" and "Whore of the Orient".
