Weather Woes?
Be Prepared For Travel Disruptions
Winter - Intro
Extreme weather can happen anytime and any season. There are some simple steps you can take to minimize the impact that winter storms, icy roads, flooding, and even hurricanes can have on your commute or travel plans. You should always defer to your state and local public safety official's "State of Emergency" alert or announcement.
Step 1. Prepare in advance. BEFORE a weather emergency:
- Become a member of 511NY Rideshare to find services that can help ease your commute.
- Find a carpool partner in case your transit route is shut down, or your vehicle is not suitable for the weather conditions.
- Sign up for our Guaranteed Ride Program. Limitations apply. Email us to learn more.
- Know your transit options, in case driving is not possible. Contact us for a detailed transit itinerary.
- Not a regular carpooler? Register in our ridematching system and select "Match Me in Emergencies." You won't be found by other carpoolers unless there is an emergency.
Step 2. Stay informed. DURING a weather emergency:
- Visit 511NYRideshare.org for up-to-date information on road and transit conditions.
- Consider teleworking to maintain productivity when weather conditions make travel hazardous.
- Drive only if it is absolutely necessary. If you must drive, travel in the daylight, stay on main roads, and don't travel alone. Follow our Winter Travel Tips below.
- Take extra caution when walking on the sidewalk and road.
- Always inform others of your travel schedule, whether walking, biking, taking transit or driving.
Step 3. Know before you go. AFTER a weather emergency:
- Continue checking the 511NY Rideshare emergency landing page for travel news and updates.
- Travel with caution. Conditions may still be dangerous. Check 511NY.org for road and transit conditions.
- Contact 511NY Rideshare to help you develop a contingency travel plan for the next time a weather emergency hits.

- Don't wait! Have your car serviced before winter weather hits. Have a mechanic check antifreeze, brakes, heater and defroster, tires, and windshield wipers to ensure they are in good shape. Keep your gas tank at least half full.
- Clean snow and other debris from windows, sensors, and lights.
- Practice driving in an empty lot to see how your vehicle handles winter conditions.
- Keep an extra emergency kit specifically created for your car. In addition to the basic essentials, consider adding a portable cell phone charger, ice scraper, extra blanket, sand for traction and jumper cables. Visit ready.gov for more tips on emergency kits and preparing your vehicle for emergencies.
- Check 511NY.org for current road conditions before travel.
- Don't rush.

What Do Bed Bugs Look Like?
What Do Bed Bugs Look Like?
With bed bug infestation problems across the United States on the rise, many victims ask the question, what do bed bugs look like. Bed bugs seek blood meals from humans and are capable of hiding in mattresses and furniture. Adult bed bugs are about the size of an apple seed. Their bodies are flat and round, much like a tick. Coloration before a blood meal tends to be a translucent brown. Once bed bugs have fed, they turn a purple-red color and elongate in size. Their bodies are covered in a waxy substance that makes them almost shiny. Bed bugs do not have wings, but are recognized by their fat rear body segment, a short squat middle segment, and a head containing two visible eyes and long antennae.
Bed bug eggs are white and in the shape of a small grain of rice. Their color allows them to blend in with a mattress. These eggs are capable of sticking to almost anything they are laid on. As the eggs grow, they begin to turn a light brown. Often these bed bug eggs are confused with dust particles. Newly born bed bugs, or nymphs, are the size of a pinhead and are almost see through.
Other signs of bed bugs include fecal deposits, which consist of digested blood. These can be seen in small spots on mattresses and furniture. Bed bugs also shed their skins between growing stages. These skins resemble the shape of the insect and are a sure sign of an infestation.
If you see the signs of bed bugs, you should install a bed bugs remedy on your beds.

At the last TGP, I did a session on Backpacking in India and touched upon the general idea of traveling around in India with a backpacker mode of mind.
One year later, with more thought and some more miles covered, there are a few ideas I have to share on the subject in general and specifically to the rare breed of travelers - solo Indians.
This session will some 3-4 ideas and practices which Indian backpackers can consider so that they can make their travels that much more enjoyable and enriching.
Most importantly, there are many people diffident about traveling along and knowingly compromise on expressing themselves by getting stuck in large, noisy group travel. I hope to trigger them with some simple ways to get up and go..
The broad structure of the session will be as follows
a. 5 key practices when traveling solo in India with the objective of getting an enriching experience (somethings that I have developed over time and which generally ensures that I never come back home disappointed or feel I have wasted my time traveling).
b. 4 fun solo travel "projects" in India: Based on some personal experiences and chats with friends, these projects are like long term expeditions which you can slowly complete over time. (I will not use the term Bucket List as is common in such lists.)
c. 3 steps to getting started: Busy work schedules, responsibilities at home, it is quite easy to look enviously at all those young foreigners who simply take off on a sabbatical or a gap year or simply quit their jobs to travel. Fret not, without having to quit your job, without having to figure which friend is traveling where and whether you can gatecrash that party, here are 3 steps which you can take yourself to get started on the travel binge.
As of now, everyone is invited and they can come as they are.

Another blazing fire is currently burning this Wednesday morning in the New Jersey shore town Mantoloking. The fire appears to have almost engulfed the Jersey town which in addition to yesterday's damage is another casualty of storm Sandy.
Flames were burning all over the cut-off barrier island of Mantoloking. There was a large cluster of flames and smaller fires spread out from it, with some flames shooting directly out of the sand.
Authorities believed a gas main may have exploded and quickly spread across the island. The small town, which sits between the Atlantic Ocean and Barnegat Bay, suffered severe damage during the storm.
Several homes were destroyed and continued to burn. It was unclear if the homes were destroyed by the fire or explosion or before it.
Firefighters could not reach the blaze due to storm damage on the roads leading to Mantoloking from the mainland.
Meanwhile, even as some barrier islands are mostly cut off and millions in New Jersey are without electricity, Gov. Chris Christie said that the state should start thinking about recovery and rebuilding after hybrid storm Sandy ravaged the shore and did damage in all corners of the state.
"Tomorrow recovery begins. Today was a day of sorrow," Christie said at a news conference Tuesday evening. "There's nothing wrong with that. So long as sorrow doesn't replace resilience, we'll be just fine."
President Barack Obama was planning to visit New Jersey on Wednesday to see the area where the violent storm made landfall two days before.
Christie said Tuesday that when he speaks with Obama, he plans to ask the president to assign the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to start working on how to rebuild beaches and find "the best way to rebuild the beach to protect these towns."
While that sounds like a notion that would be hard to disagree with, it can be contentious.
New Jersey's shore has been a political battleground over beach replenishment projects. Some oceanfront homeowners object to building up dunes. Sure, they may protect their properties' integrity, but higher dunes can damage pristine ocean views and the property values that come with them.
And some environmental groups have objected to replenishment plans, too, partly because of fears of contamination in the sand that's being moved around.
New Jersey is still assessing damage from this week's storm.
The sweep of devastation from Superstorm Sandy became heartbreakingly clear Tuesday: At least 55 people are dead, and authorities face the unimaginable task of restoring power and transit for millions of others.
Details of the devastation became clearer late Tuesday after authorities made their way through severely damaged areas across 20 states stretching from New England to Tennessee:
• Of the 55 people killed that Associated Press has reported, forty-six people had been killed in the U.S., 23 of them in New York — including 18 in New York City, NBC News reported. Six people had been killed in New Jersey, as well as five in Pennsylvania; four in Connecticut; two apiece in Maryland, Virginia and West Virginia; and one each in North Carolina and Puerto Rico. Before it made its way north, Sandy was blamed for 68 other deaths in the Caribbean.
• More than 6.6 million homes and businesses were without electricity, about two-thirds of them in New York and New Jersey. That number represents individual structures, including large businesses, meaning the number of people without light, heat or refrigeration is likely much higher.
• The New York region's airports were closed Tuesday. JFK International and Newark Liberty will open early Wednesday and offer limited service; LaGuardia will remain closed "due to extensive damage," Cuomo said. More than 18,000 flights had been canceled, while Amtrak canceled all of its Northeast Corridor rail service Tuesday, in addition to some other lines.
• Subway service was unlikely to resume for four to five days, Bloomberg said, but free bus service had resumed on a Saturday schedule, and about 4,000 cabs were running on city streets. PATH train service between Manhattan and New Jersey is likely to be suspended for seven to 10 days, New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie said.
• The Metropolitan Transportation Authority said the South Ferry subway station was "flooded up to the ceiling," while each tube of the Hugh L. Carey Tunnel — better known as the Brooklyn-Battery Tunnel — was filled with 43 million gallons of water.
• At least four towns in north New Jersey were submerged by up to 6 feet of water after a levee broke.
• A half-dozen nuclear power plants were shut down or otherwise affected, while the nation's oldest facility declared a rare "alert" after the record storm surge pushed flood waters high enough to endanger a key cooling system.
• Major U.S. stock exchanges were closed Tuesday for a second day, but they planned to reopen Wednesday.
With six deaths across the state in New Jersey, plus power outages that were at their peak Monday 2.7 million residential and commercial customers have been affected. The lights were out in Jersey City and most of Newark and in other communities scattered all over the state.
Dawn Zimmer, mayor of Hoboken, N.J., said half the city remained flooded Tuesday night.
"We have, probably, about 20,000 people that still remain in their homes, and we're trying to put together an evacuation plan, get the equipment here," according to an MSNBC TV report.
Zimmer said the city's electric utility vehicles were too big to make it down many of the flooded streets. After "begging and pleading" for equipment, she said, the National Guard told her Tuesday night some could arrive Wednesday morning.
In Breezy Point, a seaside community in Queens, N.Y., a massive fire of undetermined origin destroyed at least 110 homes and damaged 20 others. Firefighters had difficulty reaching the blaze because of the severe weather.
And this is the tone of conversation throughout areas on the north eastern coast of the U.S. The fire blazing in Mantoloking is just another example of the destruction left of triggered in the storms aftermath.

Agile Test Team Leadership: From Concept to ProductSold Out!
Today, many agile organizations are making a terrible error. They are assuming there is no place for test management and leadership in agile, self-directed team contexts. Mary Thorn and Bob Galen beg to differ with this view and believe a strong need exists for testing leadership in agile organizations—just not the way we've typically approached it. Join Mary and Bob as they explore what excellent test team leadership looks like in agile contexts. Explore the aspects of self-directed teams and the implications to your previous leadership styles. Look under the covers of Scrum and see where you should be engaging and, as importantly, where you should be giving the team space. Mary and Bob cover agile tools, planning, iterative execution, metrics, and reporting so you have a solid sense for day-to-day agile operational excellence. They share a well-rounded set of critical leadership patterns to help guide your personal transition to an agile mindset. And finally, they describe the Three Pillars framework as a baseline for assessing and continuously improving product quality.
An agile methodologist, practitioner, and coach, Bob Galen helps guide leaders and teams in their pragmatic adoption and organizational shift toward Scrum and other agile methods. Bob is often called "a Coach of Coaches" because of his deep and broad experience in the agile arena. He is director, agile practices at Zenergy Technologies; president of RGCG, LLC; and a frequent speaker at international conferences and professional groups on topics of agile software development. Bob authored Three Pillars of Agile Quality and Testing, Scrum Product Ownership, and Agile Reflections. A prolific writer, blogger, and podcaster, Bob can be reached at [email protected] or at LinkedIn.
Chief storyteller of The Three Pillars of Agile Testing and Quality, Mary Thorn is director of agile practices at Ipreo in Raleigh, NC. Mary has a broad agile and testing background that spans automation, data warehouses, and web-based systems in a wide variety of technologies and testing techniques. During her more than nineteen years of experience with healthcare, HR, financial, and SaaS-based products, Mary has held manager- and contributor-level positions in software development organizations. A strong leader in agile and testing methodologies, Mary has direct experience leading teams through agile adoption and beyond.

Welcome to Iboga Love, we offer Iboga retreats in the jungles of Costa Rica to heal, detox, and awaken with the power of Iboga in a high vibrational ceremony. Julia has been organizing ceremonies for almost a decade. Julia was fully immersed for 5 years in the indigenous tradition which carries Iboga called the Bwiti. She was a student of her former partner who is a 10th generation Bwiti shaman from Gabon Africa. Julia team works with Shamanic grade Iboga in it's pure rootbark form which is consciously harvested from the roots of trees that range between 10 and 30 years old. This medicine is from deep in the jungle and is only entrusted by the Bwiti to those providers who have been initiated into the tradition through marriage, birth (blood) and/or a series of Iboga initiations in Africa.
Iboga is a guardian of truth. You eat Iboga to see the truth about your life and the life you are living in.
Our journeys and programs are designed for people looking for spiritual truth, to awaken to higher consciousness, and step into their life's purpose for the greatest good of themselves and humanity.
We offer private and semi-private Iboga retreats which include personal guidance with your Iboga provider to help to prepare and integrate your awakening experience with ease and grace.
As one unplugs from the matrix the truth can be uncomfortable to realize. However; pure Iboga is safe and beneficial especially when used in effective doses in a high vibrational ceremony with a grounded guide who can navigate you to face the truth. The truth will set you free.
This journey is for you if you are:
Already on a path of health and personal development.
You feel drawn to working with Iboga.
You are doing fairly well in life but you have hit a block and need assistance.
You take responsibility for everything that is happening in your life and you are ready to uplevel.
You want to bring more balance into your life and gain clarity.
You are noticing some thought patterns and habits you would like to break.
We do NOT work with chemically processed or extracted medicine which is used for treating drug, pharmaceutical, and alcohol addiction, therefore, this program is NOT for you if you are currently and regularly taking any drugs, medications and or frequent alcohol consumption.There may be an exception if you are regularly taking a drug such as birth control and for instance nicotine on a regular basis.
We do not work with anyone who has a history of heart or mental disease (history of mild to medium depression is ok).
If the above criteria resonates with you please apply to one of our retreats by clicking here.

ALBANY, N.Y. (AP) – At least eight states currently have laws requiring that schools notify parents when their child is being bullied or is bullying other kids.
But such policies have come under attack from LGBT advocates who argue that schools officials could inadvertently be put in the position of outing gay, lesbian or transgender students to their parents.
At least one state is now rethinking its law. In New Jersey, education officials have suggested a revised rule that steps back from automatic notification of parents. Instead, it requires schools to consider incidents on a case-by-case basis before contacting parents.
Still, the push for such laws continues. In New York, a bullying notification bill is being pushed by parents of a 12-year-old who committed suicide after repeated physical and verbal harassment at school.

@FormerlyFormer 20 hours ago @NicholasPell @wcsoto @ThaRightStuff Sheesh, thr religion is so stringent. Even St Paul wasn't that much of dick over meat offered to idols.
@FormerlyFormer 20 hours ago @NicholasPell @wcsoto @ThaRightStuff It's sad and…grotesque to watch humans with no True symbols or icons try to construct some.
The picture is humorous, but I think KeepCalmAndDrawl has a point. Of course, there may be a few people who have severe chemical sensitivities – I know someone who does and she has to be very careful about chemical exposure – but overall the sign exemplifies a more-liberal-than-thou attempt at a worldly form of holiness that, as a former liberal Ann Arborite, I'm very familiar with. I also wonder if some of this has to do with a perversion of the normal desire to be penitent, as Mrs. Laura Wood (the Thinking Housewife) noted in a recent post, Penitential Gear, Yesterday and Today.
What I've observed of people who are trying to create meaning out of this kind of symbolism is how much it sours their demeanor. I've even experienced it firsthand; in college a friend and I went through a vegan stage until we noticed that a) many vegans were both painfully dogmatic and insufferably cranky and b) we were both becoming dogmatic and cranky.
Of course, the Bible makes it clear that God does not intend for us to be sour and cranky. Consider how much the Bible has to say about how we should be joyful and rejoicing:
You have put more joy in my heart
than they have when their grain and wine abound. (Psalm 4:7)
Therefore my heart is glad, and my whole being rejoices;
my flesh also dwells secure. (Psalm 16:9)
The Lord has done great things for us,
and we are filled with joy. (Psalm 126:3)
Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! (Philippians 4:4)
In fact, in doing a keyword search for joy, I found 242 verses that mention it! Just reading the verses is joy-giving, don't you think? God gives people joy when they are penitent toward Him, but worldly self-denial without God just leaves everyone sour.

ST. PAUL -- Minnesota United is pursuing Finnish midfielder Robin Lod, two sources told the St. Paul Pioneer Press on Wednesday, July 10.
The contract has not yet been agreed to, a source added, but Lod has emerged one of the top targets for the Loons as the summer transfer window opened Tuesday. United coach Adrian Heath said Monday he anticipated the club would announce an incoming transfer in a "couple of days."
Lod is described as a left-footed central midfielder; YouTube highlights show him in advanced roles as a winger with an ability to finish with both feet.
Lod, 26, scored four goals in 23 games for Sporting Gijon of Spain's second division in the 2018-19 season, according to soccerway.com. He previously played for Panathinaikos in Greece, scoring five goals apiece in 2017-18 and 2016-17.
Lod has played for Finland's national team along with Loons midfielder Rasmus Schuller.
United has sought a new option in a wide attacking role with the season-long loan of Romario Ibarra to Pachuca in Mexico's Liga MX in late May. The Loons are also looking to add a left back with the trade of Francisco Calvo to the Chicago Fire in early May.

I have watched the "NORAD Tracks Santa" on it's official site for years now and have even bought a Certificate and T-Shirt(s) from the site as well. It is my hope that I can always be child-like without ever being childish...

U.S. News Ranks Thomas Aquinas College Second in the Nation for Alumni Giving
Giving Rate More than Quadruple National Average, Reflects Alumni Satisfaction
SANTA PAULA—December 19—U.S. News & World Report has named Thomas Aquinas College Number 2 out of more than 1,200 colleges and universities nationwide on its newly released rankings of alumni giving. The rankings are based on the percentage of alumni who contribute to their colleges and universities. Alumni-giving rates are, according to the magazine, "a gauge of alumni satisfaction" and a sign of "school spirit" — a reflection of how much graduates value the education they received as students.
"It's not hard to get our graduates to contribute to their alma mater," says Thomas Aquinas College Director of Alumni Relations Mark Kretschmer. "I just send them an e-mail, reminding them how important their donations are to the College's future. Then the gifts start rolling in."
It is because of such loyal support that "Our alumni — even if they are just starting out in the world, or if they have large families to provide for, or if they are priests — want to contribute to the College," says Mr. Kretschmer. "They are grateful to have benefited from a Catholic liberal education, and they are eager to share that gift. Most of them received financial aid as students, and they are happy to give back to the more than 80 percent of our students who receive financial aid today."
Whereas the national average for alumni giving over the last two years is 13 percent, Thomas Aquinas College's rate is more than quadruple that figure, 58.9 percent. U.S. News has named the College to its Top 10 list for alumni giving for the last three years, and this year ranked it second in the United States, narrowly behind Princeton University.
"We are profoundly grateful to our alumni for their generous and sacrificial support," says Vice President for Development Paul J. O'Reilly. "Not only do alumni gifts directly help to cover our $4 million in annual financial aid costs, but they also attract the support of philanthropic foundations, which use alumni-giving as a measure of the College's institutional strength."
Thus alumni gifts benefit the College many times over. As Dr. O'Reilly explains, "There is no stronger endorsement for the work we do here than the gratitude of our hard-working and loyal graduates."
About Thomas Aquinas College
Thomas Aquinas College has developed a solid reputation for academic excellence in the United States and abroad. At Thomas Aquinas College, there are no majors, no minors, or electives because all students acquire a broad and fully integrated liberal education. The College offers one 4-year, classical curriculum that spans the major arts and sciences. Instead of reading textbooks, students read the original works of the greatest thinkers in Western civilization — the Great Books — in all the major disciplines: mathematics, natural science, literature, philosophy, and theology. Rather than listening to lectures, they engage in rigorous Socratic discussions about these works in classes of 15-18 students. The academic life of the college is conducted under the light of the Catholic faith and flourishes within a close-knit community, supported by a vibrant spiritual life. Genuinely committed to upholding civic virtue and leading lives dedicated to the good of others, Thomas Aquinas College graduates enter a wide array of fields where they are a powerful force for good in the Church and in the culture. Well-versed in rational discourse, they become leaders in education, law, medicine, journalism, public policy, military service, and business. In addition, a steady 10% of alumni go on to the priesthood or religious life.

Fine Dining with a confident and competent staff
'Delicious' ambience, with food to match
The restaurant is nice enough. But, it is definitely old-school. The food was good, but nothing special. This may have been a great place 20 years ago but it could use some sprucing up. I don't mean this to be a bad review. It was OK. It just didn't make you feel, 'Wow!'
Excellent food and great service. Typical Italian.
We both thoroughly enjoyed our evening.
We had booked hoping for the fabulous patio, but it was raining, unfortunately.
Our waiter was wonderful... pleasantly making suggestions when required, but never intrusive.
The food was pretty good, but not greatly memorable
Perfect escape in the city for a calm, peaceful, and delicious dinner to celebrate my husband's birthday. Very reasonable prices for the quality of the food and service. White linen tablecloths and friendly waitstaff. We'd pick this over a loud and trendy chain anytime!! Thanks Biagio!!
EXCELLENT FOOD! EXCELLENT SERVICE! EXCELLENT AMBIANCE! This was some of the best Italian I've had in a long, long time. Biagio's is a gem and when I'm back in Toronto, I'll see you again!!!
Tony was a great waiter; selected our first and second which were delicious; great addition to the restaurant.
One of my favorites that we dined at during our stay in T.O.
Food and setting were great, but the service was very slow. The restaurant was not busy so I can only imagine the issue began in the kitchen or perhaps it was our somewhat distracted and disengaged waiter.
Great location, food was OK, and the service was OK. The building is beautiful, but the lights were surprisingly bright for a valentines dinner.
The service and food was exceptional!
Went there for a romantic New Years Eve dinner, we were visiting Toronto from out of the country and wanted to find something cozy and tasty for NYE and this place fit the bill. When we arrived, we were greeted by the owner. We had their 6 course meal that was put together by the chef specifically for that day. It was a grand tour of flavor and carefully arranged ingredients. The food was authentic, and every plate was unique and tasty in its own special way. Every bite was savored and we left very happy and content. The waiter was able to get my girlfriend's favorite sparkling wine and constantly checked on us and filled our glasses without interrupting. At the end he gave us a brief history of Italian heritage in Toronto and where he grew up. The room was filled with Italian speaking folks, and the atmosphere felt very warm and inviting. If we were to see ourselves in Toronto for another New Year's Eve, I will strongly consider coming here again. The restaurant might be only 2 years old, but they are doing a lot of things right.
We made a reservation for December 24 at 7pm. We were confirmed. I received a text message from the restaurant days later asking me to confirm my reservation. I did so by pressing "1" to confirm. We arrived several minutes before the reservation to find that the restaurant was actually closed. Why would I be asked to confirm a reservation for a restaurant that wasn't going to be open on the date? Thankfully, we were able to find another place to go. Not much was open Christmas Eve, and the restaurant we found was subpar. Either Biagio or open table dropped the ball on this. I'm sure each will blame the other. But, Biagio falsely presented itself to customers.
Always a great evening of fine dining! And I have been going for 25 years! Biaggio and his staff are outstanding!
All was excellent except soup was cold. Not lukewarm - cold. I did not say anything though as service was simply excellent as was the rest of the meal!
Enjoyed the friendly atmosphere and lack of pounding music—we were able to hear each other speak!
Excellent restaurant with great photos of Old Toronto on the walls. Quiet and pleasant atmosphere with view of King Street.
Food is classical Italian and service very traditional. Truly a European old world comfortable feeling.
Would recommend!
A lovely experience. The food was excellent. The service was charming. Thank you!
Excellent food and ambiance. The fresh ingredients and simple cooking style come through. Next time, we will leave more time for a proper meal with coffee and dessert.
What a usual visit- great special of the day! Biaggio and Robert and then Tony nobody beats this kind of service. Never disappointed in over thirty years of meals and events. Oh and did I mention the wine list- spectacular
Biagio is the best. Food , service and ambiance is always delicious, warm and welcoming❤❤
Biagio was super! I picked the restaurant based on great reviews on open table and trip advisor. Excellent wine selection. Menu is very nice with a broad selection of pasta, meat and fish dishes. My wife and I both had pasta dishes for our main courses. Both were very tasty and prepared with fresh ingredients. Service was great our waiter new his stuff and was a character. Would highly recommend Biagio for great Italian food and hospitality.
We had a great time. The food is carefully prepared Italian, classy place, top service.
No one bothered to take our drink order until halfway through the meal. The service was very distracted. Too bad, because it is a good restaurant.
Good food and service, definitely an interesting (in the positive sense) menu. Ambience a bit harsh.
Overall just ok. Worth a try and the patio is beautiful, but nothing exceptional.
Great food, terrific service and wonderful quiet ambiance. Highly recommended!
Excellent meal and service. I had lobster pasta with generous pieces of lobster. It was delicious and filling. Husband loved his lamb dinner and we shared a fabulous panna cotta for dessert. We enjoyed the ambiance and pace of service.
Great service. Food was very good although my bf ordered a shrimp dish and it came with only two jumbo shrimp for like $40. If I didn't share my pasta with him he would have been hungry. Also the main dishes took a VERY long time to come out. All in all the food was delicious and the service was great.
Outstanding food and service! Thank you for a wonderful evening!
Great food. Wait staff awesome...attentive without hovering. Quiet evening but we dined early. Will def recommend
Pasta was very good the rest of the meal was average especially given the price. Very nice patio. Service was slow.
Consistent service, food and value
Our 'go to" place for the occasion to celebrate or impress
Outstanding restaurant! Great food, great service and a very beautiful and clean establishment.
Great for pre or post theatre dining or to take your loved one for a romantic dinner.
Just loved it!
Highly recommended
We were early and had the place to ourselves. The waiters and management were very attentive and engaging and brought out the courses fresh, hot and in a timely manner. We browsed the extensive wine menu and checked out the great patio in the back. We'll definitely be going back!
We love Biagio. We dine here at least once every time we're in Toronto. The food is wonderful, the service is great. It is always a special occasion for us. The only reason I gave it a 4 instead of a 5 is that the menu is somewhat limited, especially if you don't eat veal or shellfish. But what we had was wonderful. If there were more menu options we would have gone back for a second dinner.
Great food, service & location. I went there 2-3 times a long time ago & it's as great as I remembered it!
This is a fantastic, traditional, old world (mean that in a good way) Italian restaurant. If weather is nice sit outside, but the inside and building in general are beautiful. Off the beaten path a bit, which is nice. Venture away from the more "nouveau" hip joints and come to Biagio with a date for a nice, romantic, take your time and enjoy your significant other kind of evening. The waiters are traditional, service-first, and gracious....very welcoming. I would imagine if you went to a nice little place in Italy, it would be like this. Owner Biagio is warm and welcoming. His wife was in the restaurant this night, and my wife disappeared at some point and was chatting with her inside, while Biagio came out, sat down, and kept me company. You feel like family here....can't go on enough. Oh and the food was outstanding, great wine.....everything top notch. Find this place and put away your cell phone, take your time, and go away feeling happy, satisfied, and relaxed.
The service was excellent and the serving waiter was very friendly.

Most families love lasagna, but sometimes the lack the time to make the long version stops people from preparing it. This version is easy, quick, tasty and healthy enough to satisfy everyone. The seeds of whole grains have three distinctive components called the endosperm, germ and bran that are very important for health and weight loss. When these items are intact, the grains offer you a higher nutrient value. Foods that made from whole grains, like pasta, have this effect, while refined white grains do not. The refining process takes away these important items, which devalues the nutrient content. Tomatoes offer vitamin C, they're low in calories and they're fat-free. They also have a relatively high water content, which makes them a filling food. In general, eating plenty of fruits and vegetables, including tomatoes, offers protection against high blood pressure, high cholesterol, strokes, and heart disease, and powerful punch of nutrition. Tomatoes make your skin look fantastic and the beta-carotene helps protect skin against sun damage, and the lycopene content also makes skin less sensitive to UV damage, a leading cause of fine lines and wrinkles.
Miso has recently become a new trendy food, and is being utilized in a variety of ways by chefs, to add a rich taste that is absent in American cuisine. However, this "superfood" has been used for centuries to reduce the risk of degenerative disease, contribute to overall health, aids digestion, boost immunity, along with adding exceptional flavor and depth to food. Although it took a couple thousand years, modern scientific inquiry has begun to catch on to the ancient teachings, and has found that the daily use of miso can be a potent medicine in the fight against a variety of Western ailments. Getting in plenty of greens is very important, so add them to your meals when you can.
Kale is being called "the new beef", "the queen of greens" and "a nutritional powerhouse", as it's low calorie, high in fiber and has zero fat. It's loaded with antioxidants, has more calcium than milk, protects against cancer, offers cardiovascular support, is an anti-inflammatory food and is amazing for detoxing.
For Vegans and those who are dairy intolerant, cultured dairy products are a big no-no. There other dairy alternatives out there, but many of them are highly processed. Coconut, on the other hand, is a nourishing whole food full of good fats, so Cultured Coconut Milk makes it possible to receive all of the benefits of kefir and greek yogurt, yet it's not off limits.

A guide will accompany you each day as you walk between 8 and 23 km. There's no easy days on the Great Ocean Walk; but, with a moderate level of fitness, they are all enjoyable! There are some steep sections, and a bit of beach walking, which can be challenging, so we recommend training.
Each day we will resume the walk from where we finished the previous day. Please note that on some days there are options to walk half a day; and you are always welcome to take a day off. The itinerary may alter depending on local conditions and weather.
Day 1: Drive from Melbourne. Walk Apollo Bay to Shelly Beach
8 km
We depart Melbourne CBD at 8am, heading for the spectacular Great Ocean Road and Apollo Bay – the start of the Great Ocean Walk. Enjoy the first of many fresh picnic lunches for the week, get to know your walking companions and see if you can spot some Australian Fur Seals out on the rocks.
The walk today is relatively easy with some short sections of beach walking and a few hills. Keep an eye out for Koalas near Shelly beach!
Note, as we walk on the first afternoon, please wear your hiking clothes on the bus and bring your day pack ready to go. After our walk the bus will meet us at Shelly Beach carpark and we will drive to our accommodation.
Day 2: Shelly Beach to Parker Hill
21 km
Today the walk starts off by heading away from the coast and into towering forest of Mountain Ash, a characteristic feature of this part of the Great Otway National Park.
There are a few hills to negotiate before re-joining the coast at Blanket Bay. Blanket Bay is one of the few safe swimming locations along the walk.
After a relaxing lunch at Blanket Bay the track then meanders along cliff tops and through coastal forests to Parker Inlet. Look out for black wallabies, echidnas, black cockatoos and other wildlife along the way. We end out walk at the top of Parker Hill.
Day 3: Parker Hill to Castle Cove
23 km
Our path this morning will take us inland through manna gums towards the Cape Otway Lightstation. Keep an eye out for more Koalas along this section.
From the Lighthouse the track winds its way through wind sculpted landscapes of sand dunes, coastal scrubland and magnificent calcified cliffs. As we come closer to Aire River Valley we will get some fantastic views down to the estuary where the Aire River meets the Southern Ocean and Glenaire Beach.
From Aire River we head inland for a bit, climbing up and around the next headland before rejoining the coastal track, with sweeping views of the rugged coastline. We end our day at Castle Cove lookout, surrounded by towering cliffs which have high archaeological significance.
Day 4 Castle Cove to Milanesia Beach
17 km
A very varied day today, as we walk from Castle Cove along cliff tops, through heath-lands and forests, occasionally emerging to give breathtaking views along the extensive coast. Beautiful expanses of grass trees and, in spring, wonderful wildflower displays. You may be lucky to see Peregrine Falcons along this section.
Eventually the path emerges onto Johanna Beach, where we walk along one of Australia's best beaches with superb views and enormous crashing surf. From Johanna Beach the path heads through rolling hills inland, where you can expect to see Eastern Grey Kangaroos, towards Milanesia Gate.
Day 5: Milanesia Beach to the Gables
16 km
The first highlight today is Milanesia Beach, which is one of those secret beaches not many people get to. The track then cuts through and alternates between farmland and isolated beach and sea cliffs with a roller coaster of ups and downs to reach Ryan's Den. From here you'll have breathtaking views all the way back to Cape Otway and west to Cape Volney.
From Ryan's Den the trail then continues through coastal forests over Cape Volney towards Moonlight Head. After a steep climb up to Moonlight Head the track dips down into a valley which will lead us to The Gables Lookout. The Gables lookout is perched on one of the highest sea cliffs in mainland Australia, where will end today's walk.
Day 6: Gables to Gibson Steps
19 km
Today we will continue our walk from The Gables through a grove of casuarina trees to Wreck Beach. Here, at low tide, you can see the anchors of two of the many shipwrecks that lie submerged along this coast. The high tide route will take us to Devils Kitchen, where we will then follow the trail that hugs the wild coastal cliffs towards Princetown.
The wetlands around Princetown support a wide variety of bird life, where we will cross the Gellibrand River on a trestle bridge to embark on one of our last sections to the 12 Apostles. A pleasant walk through coastal scrub and escarpment will start to reveal stunning views of the looming Apostles. We will end our walk today at Gibson's steps, taking in the eastern Apostles from sea level for a unique perspective.
Day 7: Gibson Steps to 12 Apostles. Drive to Melbourne
2 km
This morning we take the short walk from Gibson steps to the Twelve Apostles visitor centre – the end of the Great Ocean Walk!
Here you'll have time to wander the boardwalks and viewing platforms before the rush of the crowds. Included in your tour is a 15 minute helicopter flight to see the spectacular coastline and the 12 Apostles from the air.
After stopping in at the fabulous Loch Ard Gorge for morning tea we will head in to the quaint coastal town of Port Campbell for a look around. Pick up some take-away lunch (own expense) before we make our way back to Melbourne, arriving by late afternoon.

"Was excited to read some homemade hot and sour soup recipes until I got to one whose ingredients completely turned me off: "This silky version includes traditional ingredients like earthy tree ear fungus, tender bamboo shoots and lily buds." TREE EAR FUNGUS???? Turkey vegetable it is."I strongly encourage you to not let "fungus" turn you off. It's just a funny translation of "mushroom." Here is a picture of the three odd ingredients in the recipe:
On the left is the dried lily flower, which is also called golden needles and in Melinda's recipe, lily buds. They are the strange ingredient. They are a rolled up lily flower petal. The middle ingredient is simply labeled "dried mushrooms," and are also called black mushrooms, but they are simply Shiitake mushrooms. You want the dried ones because they are much more flavorful. The third package is Melinda's tree ear fungus. The package is labeled "dried black fungus," and they are also called tree ear or wood ear mushrooms. They are just a mushroom. We see small ones growing on oak trees in our own yard.
We found these bags at H Mart, but they are available in any Asian grocery.
Gail's recipe is the result of many increasingly better attempts until this excellent soup emerged. The key bit of advice from a friend of hers was, "No hot oil; white pepper." We like it thick, but the nice thing here is you can tune the hot by varying the white pepper, the sour with the vinegar, and the thickness with the cornstarch.
Gail's Hot & Sour Soup
Quadruple the recipe to use a whole can of bamboo shoots and a whole lb. of tofu.
Makes: 4 c

- Remove soup from heat; chop scallion; beat egg; mix in sesame oil; set aside. Dissolve cornstarch in water; stir into soup; return to med-high heat, stirring constantly, until liquid thickens slightly and becomes translucent, 1-2 min. Do not stop stirring for even a moment or else cornstarch mixture will sink to bottom and form an unappetizing glob!
- Slowly add egg mixture, stirring for a count of 5 (to keep egg from cooking in one big piece), then letting sit undisturbed for a count of 5 (so egg isn't completely incorporated into broth).
- Serve immediately, topped with chopped scallion.
Warning: Reheat on the stove since this soup explodes in a microwave when hot enough to eat, even with short heatings separated by frequent stirrings.

Darn It!![ Edited ]
03-11-2017 06:21 AM - edited 03-11-2017 06:26 AM
I found myself out of town again.... and needing to replace a client's laptop hard drive... I immediately gravitated to SanDisk Ultra II because of prior history with them..... Though I knew (This laptop didn't...) Sandisk only supports AHCI Sata Interfaces properly (In other words.... Non AHCI controllers won't update firmware...).
HOW FRIGGING SHORT SIDED is this !!!!
But on top of that....I'm not finding any store's here that stock Ultra II SSD's!! Nor Pro's... only another as yet untested by me... Sandisk Product.....
GUYS!!! WHAT THE HECK... are you trying to do.... Alienate Me?
Re: Darn It!!
Well I ended up loaning my laptop to them, and mail ordering an Ultra II SSD to be sent to office... I'll fix it, and mail it back....
You'd think that in a city as Large as Chicago.... Somewhere there would be stock on the shelf!!!

Stumbled upon ONE Ultra II 960 at a Best Buy..... They gave me same price as Computer store when I showed them the ad...
Installed, Registered, and it's working beautifully!!!
And the nice part..... Firmware is current for V22.214.171.124 of Dashboard ---- Which is real good because that laptop does not have AHCI controller!!!
SanDisk..... Please work on that!!! !
Re: Darn It!! FINALLY!!!
No sooner did I fix one unit... but another laptop showed up, with a note on it 'Please Update Me!'
Once I found the owner... went to store, got an Ultra II 480, and updated his, too!!!
I go from having nothing to do to having 2 to do!!!
'Vacation' over... Back home.... Now I can rest !

Edmund Waller
Edmund Waller (3 March 1606 – 21 October 1687 / Coleshill / Buckinghamshire / England)
Edmund Waller Quotes
To The King On His Navy
Where'er thy navy spreads her canvas wings,
Homage to thee, and peace to all, she brings:
The French and Spaniard, when thy flags appear,
Forget their hatred, and consent to fear.
So Jove from Ida did both hosts survey,
And when he pleas'd to thunder, part the fray.
Ships heretofore in seas like fishes sped,
The mightiest still upon the smallest fed:
Thou on the deep imposest nobler laws,

"The Sailing Ship" – duct tape graffiti
This graffiti out of duct tape I stuck in only one day in the entrance area of a plastic factory near Flensburg (Germany). Because the city is located directly on the North Sea Coast, I chose a maritime theme for this work of art.
The mural artwork has become 600 cm long and 270 cm high. The year 2016.
