Gyros, Grills and More on Columbus

Ate at Gyro, Grills and More on Columbus Avenue, San Francisco for the first time. They did not have the Turkish pizza/Mediterranean Pie/Pide when we were there (it's on the menu though), so I picked an "Alexander (Iskender)". It was OK. The sauce was (spicy) hot; I didn't get it.

The food is nowhere near that of Anatolia Gyro on Taylor, near the Wharf. But, Anatolia Gyro was closed today, with a police sign forbidding 'tresspassing.' Obviously, something happened. Did they fold?

ATV on laptop screen

There are a few TV stations in Turkey that have broadcasting live via Internet, or providing on-live access to recent shows (i.e., TRT, NTV, Net1TV, Show, Star, KanalD), but ATV's live feed can be scaled to full screen. The resolution is not much, the feed is not perfect, but you can watch it from a distance, just like a regular TV. My mother-in-law loves it.
