The signage is up for the eagerly anticipated tapas restaurant Teléferic Barcelona but there will be no December opening as that has been pushed back to January according to Diablo Dish which notes that there will be, “two bars, one outdoor on the main patio and one in the main dining area, as well as three dining areas”.

I remember waiting in line for hours to see Return of the Jedi as a kid and now the biggest movie to hit the screens in years, Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens is debuting today at thousands of theaters around the world. Do you plan on seeing it this weekend? How long did/will you wait in line? Is it even possible to get tickets anywhere?
From the Walnut Creek PD:
The opening day of the new STAR WARS movie is on Thursday (12/17/15) and will be shown at the Century Theater in downtown Walnut Creek. In anticipation to a sold out attendance for every showing, the Walnut Creek Police Department is taking a proactive approach to make sure those attending have a safe and enjoyable experience. The Walnut Creek Police Department will have officers specifically assigned to monitor the activities associated with the opening of STAR WARS to deter crime and ensure pedestrian/traffic safety.
Enjoy downtown Walnut Creek, and may the force be with you.

Package thefts have become epidemic during the holiday season; has anyone had their packages stolen?
From the Walnut Creek PD:
On 12/16/15 at approx. 1633 hours, a citizen saw a suspicious green 1994 Chevy S10 pickup truck parked in front of her residence with two subjects inside opening packages. When the subjects saw the citizen looking at them, they quickly drove away. The citizen obtained the license plate of this Chevy pickup truck and called the Walnut Creek Police Department. As Walnut Creek PD officers were responding to the area of Lakewood Circle, they located this green Chevy leaving the area and made a traffic stop. Officers contacted Craig Lancaster and Shawna Byars who were found to be in possession of stolen packages taken from the front porch areas of four separate residences in Walnut Creek and unincorporated Walnut Creek. Both were also in possession of a controlled substance and drug paraphernalia. Lancaster and Byars where both arrested for possession of burglary tools, possession of stolen property, possession of a controlled substance and possession of drug paraphernalia. They were transported to the Martinez Detention Facility.

Originally based in Burlingame, Natasha Grasso Jewelry has relocated to the Rheem Valley Shopping Center in Moraga. Although the signage is not up yet this is a permanent location, not a popup. You can find their jewelry at places such as the Getty Museum, California Academy of Sciences, and One Kings Lane. Check out their Facebook page here.
From their website:
Designer Natasha Grasso created her first collection in early 2009 when she was unsuccessful in finding affordable, classic pieces that would enhance her fine jewelry collection and add style to her wardrobe.
” I wanted pieces that would reflect my sense of style without being too trendy, a collection that would go from the office to jeans and a tee and could even hold it’s own in a ball gown!”
As a successful interior designer Natasha used her design skills, took a metalsmithing class and created the first collection of Natasha Grasso Jewelry. What started as a hobby is now a thriving design and manufacturing company. Natasha’s designs are influenced by her extensive travels, and love of art, fashion and design.
