A very jumbled bit of Hallowe'en/Samhain linkage

Things of interest which may or may not coincide with the events of this day, whichever of them you celebrate (or live in fear of)...

Library and Archives' usefulness to the Ottawa community gets...curtailed. Thanks to Spacing Ottawa Twitter Feed for the link.

Eric Darwin profiles plans for the thinnest of thin houses on Gladstone Avenue.

Some interesting noises out of City Hall about the Baseball Stadium, sourced from CBC. (Personally, I've been wanting to attend a Fat Cats game for a couple of years now, and would like to be able to do so before they get forced out of town by other considerations.)

More later on other topics...
