The Natural Goodness of Yogi:Yogi has been creating all-natural and organic teas for more than 30 years. Their philosophy is simple: they believe wholesome, unprocessed foods are the best way to enjoy essential health benefits complimented by intriguing, delightful flavors - qualities that make all of their products uniquely Yogi.
Yogi Principles:
Quality Testing:To ensure consistency and quality, Yogi ingredients are meticulously reviewed and tested for insecticides, pesticides and heavy metals. Their ingredients are handled carefully, from the time they're harvested, through the manufacturing process in their organically certified facility. They strictly adhere to the prohibition of GMO ingredients as required by the National Organic Program of the U.S. Department of Agriculture and by Quality Assurance International (QAI), their third party organic certifier.This process ensures Yogi teas are made to their own scrutinizing standards and ultimately deliver unsurpassed quality to you, their customer.About Yogi Tea:Their story begins in 1969 when Yogi Bhajan, an inspired and inspiring teacher of holistic living, started teaching yoga in America. He shared the wisdom and knowledge of Ayurveda and healthy living that he had mastered in India with his students while serving a specially spiced tea, which they affectionately named "Yogi Tea." The recipe contained five traditional Ayurvedic spices: cardamom seed, cinnamon bark, clove bud, ginger root and black pepper. When blended and brewed, these delicious spices leave you feeling vibrant and alive, while boosting overall well-being. Intrigued by the complex flavor and inherent health benefits of this unique combination of spices, it wasn't long before several of the yogi's students were inspired to brew their own "Yogi Tea."
In 1984 this grassroots endeavor blossomed into the Yogi Tea Company. Packages of the rough, dried spices began to appear in natural foods stores throughout Southern California. As demand increased, the spices were more finely ground, packaged and sealed into individual tea bags. By 1986, Yogi Tea was distributed nationwide in three flavors.Yogi has continued to expand and evolve their tea offerings to address specific health needs by creating specialized herbal formulas, blended for both flavor and purpose. Today, Yogi has over 60 tea blends, many of which are created using the five original Yogi spices.The holistic teachings of Ayurveda and healthy living are the inspiration behind Yogi. These teachings continue to inform how they develop their products, and they honor and reflect them through the Yogi Principles.

To Find Fields to Farm in New York City, Just Look Up
Fed by the interest in locally grown produce, the new farm operations in New York are selling greens and other vegetables by the boxful to organically inclined residents, and by the bushel to supermarket chains like Whole Foods. The main difference between this century and previous ones is location: whether soil-based or hydroponic, in which vegetables are grown in water rather than soil, the new farms are spreading on rooftops, perhaps the last slice of untapped real estate in the city.

John R. Winnicki
FRISCO -- John Robert Winnicki, 82, passed away on June 29, 2014 in Neptune, N.J., surrounded by his family. He succumbed to lymphoma after a three- month battle. Before entering treatment for his lymphoma in March, John was living at his house in Frisco, enjoying his beloved Cape Hatteras lifestyle.
Surviving John are his three children, John James, Sara Rae, and Eric Thomas, as well as daughter-in-law Linda Lavanway Winnicki and grandchildren, Luke and Liv Winnicki.
John was born on May 27, 1932 in South Amboy, N.J., the son of John Walter and Rose Kosh Winnicki. After graduating from college and a short stint in the U.S. Army, John attended NJIT and got a chemical engineering degree in 1956. He worked for many years for Mobil Chemical Co. in Edison, N. J. In 1985, he moved to Baltimore, Md., to finish out his career at Valspar.
John married Rae Carole Rasmus on Nov. 20, 1960. They raised their three children in Edison and enjoyed all of the facets of family life in the '60s and '70s. The Winnicki children still feel the influence of their parents, who passed on their love of nature, as well as their acceptance of all people. John's dry wit also lives on in his children and grandchildren.
John and Rae enjoyed the city life on Charles Street in South Baltimore until 2002. There they would attend classical music concerts throughout the city, as well as become advocates for the city of Baltimore, opening up their home to friends and family for many weekend visits. Thanksgivings in Baltimore in the 1980s and '90s were always memorable weekends for family and friends alike. John retired in 2000 and John and Rae moved to Frisco full time in 2003 to enjoy their Hatteras Island paradise. John thought that he was retiring to the beach to fish but instead fell in love with windsurfing. He was fully able to windsurf even up until last October. His beloved wife Rae passed away in August 2006.
Besides his retirement obsession with windsurfing, John had a life-long love of reading with a special interest in science fiction. He loved classical music and also was a big Bob Dylan fan.
A remembrance for John will be held at Kurzawa Funeral Home in South Amboy, N.J., on Thursday, July 3, from 2 until 4 and 7 until 9 p.m.. A memorial service will also be held later in the summer in Frisco for him to be remembered by his Outer Banks friends.

He is survived by myself, Judy Bonney; his brother, Albert Bonney, and wife Nettie, and their children, Albert and wife Lorrie, Kim and her husband Jay; and all of their children and his extended family of friends who cared so much for him.

Roy L. Gray Jr.
ETOWAH, Tenn. -- Roy L. Gray Jr., age 74, passed away Saturday, March 15, 2014 at his residence, after a long valiant fight with brain cancer and the complications resulting from treatments.
He was a native of Hatteras. He was a retiree of J.M. Huber Corporation in Etowah and was employed by the Sundry Stores, Inc. for the past several years. To his employers and co-workers he displayed a work ethic second to none. He was committed to his work, always a team player, and always willing to go beyond the call of duty. He was a mentor, example, and deep personal friend to many of the young men who were his co-workers. His jovial personality brought much fun and laughter to those with whom he was privileged to work.
He followed the tradition of his family by joining the U.S. Coast Guard as a young man and serving his county for 11 years. He was a member of the Cleveland Cycle Club and rode throughout the United States on his Honda Goldwing. He was a very active member of North Etowah Baptist Church. His love for his lord, his church, and his fellowman was often displayed by his desire to help those in need. As a representative of his church and many times at his own expense, he and several others made numerous trips to Mexico to help build houses for those in poverty and to share the hope that is in Christ. He was a member of a Disaster Relief team, helping after Hurricane Katrina and other natural disasters. Through his church he was involved in many mission activities both locally and in surrounding states. There was an incredible bond formed between those he served with on mission projects. As many as three of his friends at a time would go with him for his treatments, both for support and because they enjoyed the fun and fellowship of being together. Together they traveled thousands of miles and they were surrounding him and his family as he made his final journey for his eternal reward.
His life was a success. He gave more to life than he received, and he brought fun and laughter to all who came in contact with him.
Roy is the son of the late Roy Linvil Gray Sr. and Clarice Gray. He is preceded in death by his parents and a brother-in-law, Jimmy Cox.

- Upscale but kid friendlyFamilyFunDined on 9/27/2014Epic is a romantic setting with excellent service and also pretty good for kids provided they are in a good mood. They had crayons and a kids menu with a great healthy food selection. We were there for a fix prix menu. All the food was very good. Our 3 year old enjoyed the food as well.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Excellent value!CC44Dined on 9/25/2014We really enjoyed our Groupon experience; service was professional and attentive but not stuffy.

- danielDined on 9/23/2014The staff was Very good and courteous but the meal itself was way overpriced. Overcooked steaks and dry salmon on the négative side but excellant desserts on the positive side.Special Features:

- Never disappointsPjindoverDined on 9/14/2014Once again we enjoyed a beautifully presented dinner at Epic this evening. Our servers were attentive but not hovering. My steak was done to perfection and I loved my dessert, dense chocolate cake with a little cup of ice cream on the side, delicious. Thankyou.Special Features:
- EpicwaistGMEVALUDined on 9/9/2014Grumpy unionized staff, underwhelming quality and selection for a $35.00 breakfast buffet. Restaurant would be closed if it wasn't in the RYH.Special Features:
- Not just for the travel wearyiskiandgolfDined on 9/3/2014As residents of Toronto with many dining options, it's not often that we would choose a hotel restaurant for dinner. A promotion brought us to EPIC at the Royal York and we were pleasantly surprised at the casual, yet elegant atmosphere and excellent cuisine. We would actually consider a return visit.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Excellent Service & Food!ElaineDined on 9/3/2014Once again had a great lunch at Epic. The food was delicious and the service excellent. The waiters provide just those extra touches that make you feel special! Epic is my 'go to' place for a quiet business lunch.Special Features:
- Excellent dinner, wait staff?DacyDined on 9/2/2014We dined at this restaurant last night on a Groupon. The meal was outstanding. The wait staff, for the most part, leave a lot to be desired. We found them a little snobby and unfriendly. The wine steward, in fact, seemed to turn up his nose at our choice of wine when we did not follow his recommendations. On the other hand, there was an assistant server, Lee who was very friendly and competent who made the experience very enjoyable. She is to be commended!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- dinner4usDined on 8/31/2014It was the second time dining in the Epic restaurant, and both times I must say it was epic in every way!! The service was superb, the meal exquisite, the wine ,the ambiance...everything was outstanding. The special touch of bringing us a happy anniversary platter of desserts for two...on the house...well that 's what made it even more memorable...the special touches that make your day!! One never forgets those.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- A regularluvgoodfoodDined on 8/19/2014I have been eating at this particular spot for several years and a regular.

My last visit had service levels a little below my normally acceptable level but pleased to say that on this occasion the service was back to a good standardSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Repeat businessluvgoodfoodDined on 8/6/2014I have used this place for breakfast meetings forever (over 10 years) and i must say the one thing I consistently liked was the attentive service, however on this occasion it was absent and slow. The food quality was there, the front desk staff attentive but either due to summer vacations or hotel being full, but the service did not meet its regular level.Special Features:
- OpenTable Diner Since 2008Dined on 8/5/2014My daughter was married in Toronto and our small wedding party have dinner at the Epic. The food was excellent, great variety and well presented. The staff couldn't have been more pleasant, the desserts were yummy and we were very pleased. The evening was perfect.Special Features:
- Diner49Dined on 8/2/2014This is the third time my husband and I have dined at Epic. It is a beautiful restaurant with tables set meticulously and formally. A great place for special occasions. Tables are well spaced so you do not hear others' conversation. Some waitstaff were very professional and others were a bit "lazy". We have had better service so not sure because it was a slow night that some of the waitstaff were talking when they should be more attentive to their customers. Food was delish and well presented as always. All in all we enjoyed our evening.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Service was the best ever receivedDancingsuperstarDined on 7/26/2014The food was good, not the best ever, and on the pricier side of things but the service was worth more than 5 stars.

The meals were deliciously infused with herbs and spices grown right on the rooftop of the Royal York Hotel...what a novel idea. The staff were very friendly and attentive. We were very comfortable and felt welcomed. The decor of the ceilings caught my eye and I appreciated how unconventional the shapes were. Delicious food. Thank youSpecial Features:

You fill out a card and choose options for a made to order omelette and can also request pancakes and waffles from the chef. There are plenty of other options from fruit to oatmeal to tomatoes to mushrooms. The service was outstanding. Our coffee was constantly refilled.Special Features:
- mandyDined on 7/19/2014went for summerlicious dinner, was driving around the area to find a parking spot and then realized that they provide 3 hours free valet parking after i called them for advice. when i was about to sit down, i realized that my phone has left in the car and i was told that they will get it for me and brought it in to the restaurant. The food is so good, and the potion is great. Both me and my boyfriend couldn't finish it and other than the 3 courses on the menu, they even brought us a beef teriyaki to try in the beginning and some sweet treat after the dessert. For some reason, they didn't charge the coffee.Special Features:
- YummyDined on 7/19/2014Simply superb !! My first time writing a dining experience review with an overall outstanding comment.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Summerlicious LunchKatyDined on 7/18/2014Where do you take a visitor from England for lunch? I recently had this opportunity and decided as she was travelling into Toronto by train to go to the Royal York. The service throughout the entire hotel is always outstanding and I knew we could be comfortable in Epic. We enjoyed a delicious three-course Summerlicious menu and superb service. We were seated right away and were not rushed - spending nearly 3 hours catching up! This is a great place to relax while enjoying great food and great service in a classic hotel.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- great ambiencecrmbDined on 7/17/2014Was greeted promptly at the front desk and was led to a table immediately. The waiter was on a first-name basis with us, which personalized the experience more. Food came out promptly after ordering and was delicious. Didn't expect so much food, even for a Summerlicious meal! Couldn't finish dessert because of it, but it was still a great experience.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 7/16/2014Lovely dinner - very friendly staff. We had a wonderful evening.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Good atmosphereMacFoodieVIPDined on 7/16/2014Great atmosphere but the food is over priced - why pay $22 for a plate of rabbit food with a few pieces of chicken tossed in.Special Features:
- First time Summerlicious experiencecxlcDined on 7/15/2014The service is great. My friend and I chose to go there and try their Summerlicious menu because the descriptions sounded very delicious. We ordered the salad and cooked veggies as appetizers. The appetizers were very plain, the plate settings were not appealing. The taste was okay, very normal ingredients, nothing special. Mains: we ordered the Wild mushroom ravioli and chicken. Both garnishes were the same (peas, mini wild mushrooms and some greens). The ravioli I had was not hot, only the plate was warm and the sauce was soupy - I was expecting some sort of thicker sauce. However, the ravioli filling tasted good. The chicken was bland tasting and mushy in texture. The desserts, flourless chocolate cake and Canadian tarts, were divine.Special Features:
- Outstanding food and service!ElaineDined on 7/15/2014I find Epic to be a great place for lunch as it is quiet and you can actually have a conversation. The food was great also. Started with a salad with Huckleberry seeds and candied walnuts (yummm...), then mushroom ravioli for the main and blueberry cheesecake for dessert, followed by cappuccino. The service was outstanding as well. It is still my favourite place for lunch in the financial district.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Perfect for a private mealewingchangeDined on 7/15/2014I take clients and others to Epic because it is central (in the Royal York Hotel) and you can have a conversation without feeling you are going to be overheard and at the same time you are rarely specifically aware of conversations from other tables. The tables are spaced nicely. The food is amazing and has a great menu for meat lovers as well as vegetarians and fish lovers. It never disappoints. The wait staff have all been there for multiple years and really seem to enjoy their work. Very warm, very welcoming. I would highly recommend this restaurant.Special Features:
- Excellent for business meetingsKirkDined on 7/14/2014Excellent service. Quiet enough to have meaningful business discussions. Menu needs to be updated/ expanded.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Elegant Setting for a DateHappyDined on 7/12/2014We enjoyed a lovely glass of wine on a Friday evening while being serenaded by a pianist and lovely female lounge singer. It was the perfect type of entertainment for the setting. Very classy. The next morning we enjoyed a breakfast buffet as part of our Groupon deal. The service was wonderful but had it not been included I would have considered it far too expensive for breakfast.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- serviceYukiDined on 7/11/2014service is not attentive as expected on such pricey dining restaurant. Kinda disappointed!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- good overallylimeDined on 7/11/2014the steak, ravioli and chowder were excellent. we received wine recommendations for OK wine but these were surprisingly insanely expensive per glass. Dessert was not good. Chocolate cake and cheesecake nothing special at all. great serviceSpecial Features:
- PERFECTfoodie4everDined on 7/10/2014One of the best meal I've ever had. Everything is so well balanced and the portions are just right. The best service I've ever had (the waiter called Jesus is the most thoughtful, kind, well mannered and lovely waiter of all times). I will be going back for the food, and will ask to be seated in Jesus section ;-) Definitely worth every penny, and certainly felt like Royalty while eating there!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- lovely reunion dinnerstargazeDined on 7/9/2014My out of town guests were very impressed with the quality, flavor, and intricate plating of the food. Pan seared foie gras was especially exquisite. Lamb, prime beef and seafood were cooked to perfect temperature, and unlike other pretentious places with the same price range, food here were artistically plated with fancy vegetables and tasty starch. There were plentiful selection of wine by the glass, cocktails and mocktails so everyone could pick their own fancy. Most importantly, they remembered to bring a birthday plate to celebrate my cousin's birthday as I requested. Amazing team work there from the reception to the finesse of the dishes and service! I certainly will go back and especially for special occasion treats.Special Features:
- good service, nice enviromentPrinecessDined on 7/9/2014The food was good, my steak was cooked perfectly as I ordered. The waiter was courteous and attentive. They understand and communicate with the customer well.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Disappointing summerlicious mealYan520Dined on 7/8/2014The service was bad, At least not what you would expect from a restaurant located inside a hotel. The server didn't even ask if we wanted drinks, just started us off with water. Food took very long. Finished all the food and wanted the bill but he was no where to be seen. When he appeared at the table next to us, made eye contact but that was it, did not bother to come over and ask if we were finished or if we needed anything else. The food was okay, but not worth $45. Many better choices in this price range, some even in the $35 range. The atmosphere wasn't great either. Will not recommend.

Shameless: Obama's gun control campaign
As part of this campaign, the President "is expected to make an emotional appeal in his State of the Union address," the Post reported. The White House is expected to invite families who lost children in the Newtown, Conn., tragedy last month to attend the address alongside the First Lady. What a surprise.
The President who pressed for tax hikes on families making more than $250,000 a year by labeling them "millionaires and billionaires," who portrayed the notably generous Mitt Romney as an uncaring vulture, intends to push for gun control on behalf of the children.
Questions about whether Obama's proposed changes will actually work will be dismissed by the teary-eyed President, children on either side, who insists that the only way to show we care is to do as he prescribes. Emotional manipulation is a tool of both sides, of course, but no one employs it as shamelessly as Barack Obama. It seems that we are about to find out just how shamelessly.
