Good news travels slowly, so perhaps it is not surprising that I only recently found out about an October 2011 GAO report called Critical Factors Underlying Successful Major Acquisitions, which examines seven recent government IT systems acquisitions -- ranging in dollar value from $35 million to $2 billion -- that have met their schedule, cost, and performance targets. (I don't recall seeing anything even in FCW about this report when it came out, and a search of the fcw.com website with the key words GAO and the title of the report came up dry. FCW, tell me it isn't so!) The projects ranges from a logistics support system fielded by the Defense Information Systems Agency to a Department of Homeland Security for high-volume Mexican and Canadian border crossings that uses license plate identification and other technologies to allow checking background information about visitors without slowing down border crossings too much. Agencies were asked to identify projects, and GAO vetted project performance. They then interviewed people involved in the program with open-ended questions about what factors in their view contributed the most to program success. GAO coded and tabulated replies, and the report presents information about the most-common success factors the interviews revealed. The single most common success factor -- mentioned in all 7 of the programs -- was that "program officials were actively engaged with stakeholders." GAO noted that the stakeholders were internal (including top management) and external (such as oversight bodies and non-government customers). Internal stakeholders were involved in ongoing meetings with the contractors, assessing progress and issues, and in reviewing contractor deliverables. In all but two of the cases, end users and other stakeholders were involved in the development of requirements and in informal testing prior to formal acceptance testing. The next most common factor, present in six of the seven programs, was "program staff had the necessary knowledge and skills" and "senior department and agency executives supported the programs."
In the successful projects, program managers were knowledgeable about procurement, contract management, organizational change, and/or earned value management. As for senior leadership, they were credited with interventions that would have been more difficult at the program manager level, such as reaching agreements with senior leaders in other departments about necessary cooperation or assuring end user involvement. Perhaps surprisingly, sufficient funding was named as a success factor in only three of the cases. It was also interesting that features of the technology approach used generally didn't make it on the list at all, with the exception of agile development, which some successful projects mentioned. Nobody mentioned commercial off-the-shelf products or cloud, or much else about the technology itself as success factors. The message seems to be: it's the management, stupid. Researchers (including me) are often skeptical of research that tries to draw conclusions only from successful cases, because even if you see that all the successes did x, you don't know whether maybe the failures did x as well unless you compare successes and failures. In this report, however, I feel more confident in the results because past studies of failures have developed long lists of mistakes that IT systems that run into problems make. This report draws from that long list to identify mistakes avoided in the successful projects. All in all, good job GAO. And aside from the helpfulness of the lessons learned reported in this GAO study, this report should be getting wide distribution to give GAO credit for writing a report that tells us what we might learn from success instead of just dumping on failure. If the silence is deafening, it will hardly encourage more such reports from GAO.

Fellow London and Kent XTZ Tenere Owners
Hello To All,
Ive been reading information on the site for a few months now and am very impressed. This is my first posting and I am looking to link up with fellow XT riders based in London S.E. swapping inforrmation, tips, adventures etc
As you may have guessed, I have a XTZ 660 97 Tenere and looking for others that own and ride the same or similar model. I seem to be the only one who has one of these bikes and not seen anyone else with one on the road.
I've no major trips planned at the moment, thought it would be better to network with others and learn as much as i can about the bike.
Would also appreciate feedback if this is already taking place elsewhere
Hopefully i will speak to you all soon
Hi I've just bought one of these but live in crete . just in the uk now for a few days buying voltage regs as they seem to be the most common mentioned problem I've got the tenere model with the biggish tank and the vaccuum fuel pump was also leaking a nacked rubber membrain in the unit which I semi repaired with rubber glue to keep me going until a new one was sourced. If you are travelling greece ,crete and want a stop over text me on +30 6947 784 935 cheers rog preston.
Bike storage in Crete
Hi Rog or anyone else in Crete,
Are you still in Crete? We are in Crete now and are looking for safe storage for our Super Tenere and gear for 16 months, two winters, one summer, while we go home to earn more money to continue our RTW trip.
We are looking for a space in someones garage and are willing to pay for it.
If you know of anyone please let us know or if you are still here it would be great to catch up with you or any other Horizons bikers in Crete
Our Greek number till 7 Nov is 697 416 3848
or by email.
Cheers, Patrick and Belinda Peck
XTZ Tenere Owners
Hello Rog,
Thanks very much for the kind offer, i've got to say that it has sparked an idea that maybe I should plan a ride visiting as many XTZ Tenere owners as possible in as many different countries.
If you get a chance post a photo of your bike, i've just ordered some crash bars for mine...hopefully i'll never have to rely on them..
AnteK, XTZ 660 Tenere
lets see some photos
hi guys phil from sydney,
i would love to see some photos of other peoples xtz660. i love my ride, although have not ridden it now for almost 6 months.
i was taken out by a large truck while riding, i was ok but bike not so lucky.
it has taken me a LONG time to put her back together but it will be worth the wait. i have spared no expense putting my old "sooty" back to one piece.
cant wait to show fellow xtz appreciators the labor of my love, i think another two weeks will see the job finished. my wife and i ride this bike from london to india in 2004....so we are very attached.....
London Meeting
Hi All,
Antek, thanks for the invitation thats Croatia and Crete now, the list of places to visit seems to be growing, no alliteration intended.
Phil, sorry to hear of your accident and more importantly glad that your unhurt as a result of it. Looking forward to seeing photo's of old 'sooty', i'll have to arrange for some of mine.
I have just come across a proposed London meeting on the 30 Nov 06 posted by Maria under , HU Travellers meeting- UK', anyone interested should post their interest there, it would be a good opportunity to meet XTZ owners or not..
Lastly, I had a message left on my phone by M&P informing that they have discontinued crash bars for my model of bike??

Linda & Richard Eyre: How media could help the family
Editor's note: The following is an excerpt from "The Turning: Why the State of the Family Matters, and What the World Can Do About It," by Linda and Richard Eyre. The book will be released at the end of August.
It is obvious that media has enormous influence over how we perceive ourselves and our world — and over how we live within that world. Those who say otherwise are trying to defend the indefensible.
• Our appeal to writers/producers/directors: Have the courage to attempt the portrayal of the more positive (and more difficult) emotions and characteristics. Take the risk of making something about honor or truth or courage rather than the "safe bet" of more sex and violence. Show the real and honest consequences of things. Actually think about the effect and influence on the consumer. Meet the challenge that is inherent in all creation: Think more about the ultimate quality, effect and legacy of what you make and less about the short-term profit.
• Our appeal to actors, artists, celebrities, "role models," and their agents and publicists: Show the significant rather than the seamy. There are so many celebrities with strong families and strong views about priorities. We don't often see this side of them, partly because of privacy and partly because it doesn't seem sensational enough to sell. In fact, there is a hunger for human-interest stories that we can connect to and identify with. If people knew as much about the "good" as about the "bad," we might all be amazed (and reassured) that there is more of the former than the latter.
Perhaps we can illustrate these appeals with a personal story: We were featured guest speakers at an Aspen, Colorado, retreat with top Disney corporate officers and division heads. We wrote a brief "parents' plea" for the occasion, attempting to articulate the appeal we felt all parents would want to extend to the Disney organization in light of some of their recent moves away from the family entertainment that made them famous. We called it "Err to the Light."
To the Disney organization: Err to the Light
To Disney, from parents: We appeal to you now, today, as parents, as "every parent," from a part of the heart that only parents know. We have been with you in these convention sessions, looked around and tried to calculate the influence in this room. You, as the top management and executives of Disney, reach every American family and every American child and beyond, to the whole world, not periodically, but daily.
Because of your size and who you are, because of media's stretch and subtle stimulus, you may have more influence than any other company, even more, perhaps, than any other single institution of any kind, perhaps more than the presidency, more than the Congress. Actually, "influence" is too small a word. You have stewardship. You reach our children every day. They may listen to you longer and with more concentration than to us.
What we say to you now is born not of statistical analysis or profit-margin expertise (although we promise you that "goodness sells"). It comes from a simple clarity bestowed only on parents. Because, you see, while our own personal commitments and values, our desires and dreams, may quiver with ambiguity, they take on a firm, sharp focus in what we want for our children.
As mere people, we are confused by complexity when we look at our world. But as parents, we are touched by simple, pure wisdom when we look at our child. In that wisdom, we see the joy of right decisions, the wonder and trust of selfless love and the nobility of simple courage. We see the good and love in the world reflected in our children's eyes. We feel the deep desire to pour all that is good into their lives. And we feel the need for help because we also see the damning dangers of the dark dimming of sensitivity, the callous desensitizing and loss of wonder that not only robs them of their childhood but steals their awe and hope.

Best pizza that delivers (to Yonge & Eglinton)?
- Ediblethoughts Jun 22, 2008 12:18 PM
I just read the Pizza Roma review in the best pizza thread but sadly Y & E is too far for them to deliver. Any recommendations on great pizza that delivers to Y & E (good veg options and whole grain crust preferred but the latter isn't required).
I'm a fan of Classico on Yonge just south of Sherwood Avenue. They always have a pretty wide selection of vegetarian pizzas and of course you can customize. Now that I think about it I'm not positive that they deliver but it's worth a call: 416-322-3267.
Classico Louie's Pizzeria
2549 Yonge St, Toronto, ON M4P2H9, CA
re: wontonfm
Thanks. I called and they do deliver. I'll definitely try them out.
re: Ediblethoughts
I quite like Louie's, as well. I've had their pizza a couple of times when visiting a friend in the area and it's been great.
re: Jacquilynne
What pizza do you like to order at Louie's, Jacquilynne?
re: phoenikia
We've just made them up at the time based on the wide-ranging preferences of whoever is there that night, none of the pre-set ones has ever worked for us.
re: Jacquilynne
Ok, cool. Thanks.
re: wontonfm
I ordered CL's this evening and I quite liked it. The whole grain crust had a nice chewiness and the toppings were well balanced. Only issue was I got zucchini instead of rapini (I should have had them repeat my toppings to me to be sure). Overall I liked this pizza better than Madanto, largely due to my preference for CL's crust.
re: wontonfm
I also order from Classico. Their crust is fantastic. I usually go for the ham and pineapple. Actually you can't go wrong with most of their menu.
re: kasey j miller
I just tried googling that one and came up with nothing. Do you have a contact # or website? (What kind of pizza have you gotten from there that you like?)
re: Ediblethoughts
Sadly-La Looch has closed.
re: magic
When Bruno, the Dad/Husband/owner died about a year ago, mother and son lost the passion and I suspect some clients. Too bad! I also have been going/ordering for about 25 years. Georges across the street, the old Monte Carlo original location does make a decent pizza though. La Looch-RIP!!
re: robb
Yeah, I suspected that when he died it would only be a matter of time before the family stopped running the business. The pizza never suffered though, it was great up until the end. It will be VERY missed. Sigh, where are all the pizzaolas going?
George's, across the street, USED to be good. But now it is just awful. I used to be a huge proponent of them, and I thought their pizza was among the best in the city, possibly even the best. The past two years though their pies have gone downhill bigtime. My whole family has noticed this and spoken to the management about it -- a few times! They simply put on no cheese, even when we pay more for extra cheese! I suspect there have been ownership changes, maybe multiple changes, these past few years, and the product has suffered immensely. The past two years in particular they have been taking advantage of their customers' loyalty and I think it is starting to affect their business. They are dead in there. Even their takeout, their clear lifeline, seems a lot less busy. I'd be surprised if they are still in business two years from now. Too bad too, it didn't have to be this way. But it all starts with ownership. Any management that ruins their signature product to so obviously cut food costs, hires inept teenagers and a motley crew of odd non-professionals to front a restaurant, and creates a Jewish-style Sunday brunch for their predominantly Jewish clientele even though they are an "Italian" restaurant (!!), is clearly clueless and deserves to fail. I'll miss their pizza when they go, but to me it seems, their pizza died years ago. Truly sad, because at one time they were damn good. They've just let everything gone to the dogs, and it shows not only in their now crummy pizza, but in the establishment itself - a quiet, odd atmosphere, whose cheap facade is showing signs of aging and neglect. Needless to say, I'm done with George's. I suspect others are too. Or will be in the not-too-distant future. Unless they get their act together and start running a real restaurant. But I ain't holding my breath.
re: magic
It's been over a year since my rant on George's pathetic excuse for what was a once great pizza, and it seems the shoe finally dropped on that Eglinton establishment. Got a flyer in the mailbox and although the same lame menu front was still in place, I was taken aback when I opened it up and looked at their menu: chicken fingers, wings, hamburgers, misspellings galore.
So, I'm assuming this crummy business was recently sold and this is the new owner's menu. Anyone know anything about this recent development? I'm curious.
Whatever the explanation, if the place was indeed sold the new owners seem cheaper than the previous ones. Which is a real feat! They kept the old takeout menu the same, complete with 'Fine Italian Ristorante,' even though burgers and chicken fingers now rule the roost (gone are the former "Italian" menu items – except for the lousy pizza it seems). Jeez, you think they could at least print out new menus more fitting to the new business direction. The correlation between burgers and shakes and Fine Italian Ristorante is as mysterious as it is….. sad. Oh well, at least the typos entertained me.
Any news would be appreciated however..... thx.
re: acd123
It likely will.
So sad, it used to be so good.
Now.... no words.
re: acd123
re: torontogourmet
I second Casa Di Giorgio, they have very tasty made from scratch pizzas with high quality toppings and cheeses. They have a fantastic offer which is a 3-topping pizza for pickup, $9.95 for medium and $11.95 for large. It's our go-to place since we've soured on the chains...
Oh, and yes they do deliver too.
re: bogie
So we tried the large pickup special for $12.95, I think. Toppings were good--lots (too much for us) of cheese and sauce. Unfortunately, the crust was too soft to support the toppings, although it was nice and thin. A little longer in the oven may have helped it. Flavour was good, though.
I've tried the Classico and I find it so disappointing - almost like grocery store, freezer pizza. There's an Amato knock-off at Yonge and Eg, but I'm sure you've tried it. http://www.madantopizza.com/ While I'm not crazy about Amato, or even the slices at Madanto (I still believe it was a disgruntled, former employee of Amato who started this joint), the whole pizza at Madanto is excellent... I can provide recos if you wish....
re: Moimoi
I'd love to hear recommendations about Madanto---I haven't been to that pizza place. When I have ordered out for pizza, it's been the uninspired (and uneven) Pizza Nova most of the time. I've tried a few other places but they were so awful, I blanked them out.
re: Ediblethoughts
Here are the pizzas I've ordered from Mandanto in the past. I've always ordered extra large for leftovers the next day. They will also do half and half... I've tried and loved the Pollo Basilico, Salsiccia E Funghi, Tres Spicy, and Mediteranean.. Please let me know if you order and if it's good. Fingers crossed...
re: Moimoi
Actually, I ordered a make-your-own two days ago. I did one with rapini, hot peppers (they used the fresh, small green ones--which impressed me---I hate the pickled hot peppers), mushrooms, garlic and cheese/tomato. And I ordered a medium in green olives, artichokes, garlic, mushrooms, spinach, and tomatoes. They were both good (obviously very fresh ingredients used)--though next time, I'd put the hot green peppers on both. My only complaint is no whole grain crust (and of course, delivery pizza is never the same as getting it fresh from the oven).
re: Moimoi
I think you're right about Madanto. It used to be Amato, when it first opened, but not for long. I once went for my favourite potato/rosemary/cream (I think it was called Lucille?) slice, and it had french fries on it instead of sliced potatoes. I never went back.
I'm a fan of Big Man Pizza. There's a ton of selection, and they deliver all throughout the Yonge Eglinton area.
re: Paula from Toronto
I tried BMP recently but made the mistake of ordering the pasta--which was pretty awful. If you say the pizza is their strength, maybe I'll try them out again.
re: Ediblethoughts
Their pizza is pretty good. I've never been brave enough to try anything else. Even at 2 for 1 specials.
re: Ediblethoughts
Personally, I've found Bigman to be kind of uninspired.
re: torontofoodiegirl
May I ask what you think would be an inspired pizza?
re: lamaranthe
Maybe it was a poor choice of words on my part, but my description of Bigman as "uninspired" was intended to convey that I've found it to be kind of blah/boring. It's been a while since I had BM but (if I remember correctly) there wasn't anything particularly "bad" about it, it just was kind of lacking in flavour and pizazz (perhaps it was that the sauce was bland?).
As for an "inspired" pizza, I'd have to say one of my favourites is the Smendozzata (sausage, gorgonzola, and onions) from Terroni - it's packed with flavour. Not to say that a pizza has to have bold toppings to be "inspired" though...for example, I recently quite enjoyed the Primavera from Falasca SPQR (the new place on Yonge south of Eg). It's a sauceless pizza with arugula and grape tomatoes -- very simple, delicate flavours, yet delicious.
Incidentally, though it wasn't my favourite pizza of all time, I should note that I quite enjoyed the pizza from Falasca and think it's a great addition to the neighbourhood. Their tomato sauce (which was on the other pizza we tried) is quite good. They don't deliver, though, so a mention of it technically doesn't belong in this thread.
Falasca SPQR
2059 Yonge St, Toronto, ON M4S 2A2, CA
re: torontofoodiegirl
An addendum: It occurs to me that I've been comparing apples and oranges, so I'll throw in another example. I far prefer pizza from Mama's or Pizza Nova to Bigman. At Pizza Nova, for example, I'd say that the Portobellissimo (sporessata, portobellos and asiago) on a thin crust, well done, is pretty tasty.
re: Paula from Toronto
I tried out the Big Man pizza delivery last night and it was very good! My only real complaint was the pizza wasn't that hot when it arrived but I guess that's always the luck of the "delivery draw". In any case, the ingredients were very fresh (in particular, the artichoke hearts were very tasty and that's one ingredient I often find isn't always of that best quality in pizza) and plentiful (including a reasonable amount of mozzarella) and I like that they offer chili and garlic free. I'm always looking for heat in a pizza without the vinegary flavour that always accompanies the jalapenos and the chillies they added were perfect. My dining companion found it a little too spice-hot but I loved it! They also offer a whole wheat pizza (which we got) and it did a good job of holding all the veggie ingredients I'd loaded on (spinach, green olives, mushrooms, tomatoes, artichokes) . Definitely ordering from BM's again!
re: Ediblethoughts
I agree. We ordered BigMans last night. And we were pleasantly surprised. Good crust, fresh toppings and quick, friendly delivery service.
It's not the best pizza in the wrold but, a far cut above most and certainly worth the 15% premium than ordering from the chains.
re: lowchen
Another vote for BigMans. They have an excellent mediterranean pizza with goat cheese but I have actually enjoyed everything I've had from there. You can also order online.
re: Cat123
And another vote from me. Reliable, good selection of toppings, and I LOVE the online ordering.
re: jdavis2ca
Apparently. I called their number too and it was an automatic busy signal.
I know. That's a true neighbourhood institution. Terrible.
re: food face
I'm definitely very motivated! Unfortunately, going to restaurants isn't too convenient at present so I'm now reduced to feeling out the take-out sector of Y & E!
Pizzaville, hands up. http://www.pizzaville.ca/locations.html
The one at 3308 Yonge (at Fairlarn) delivers. See their site for menus etc.
We are aficionados!
re: BeauSoleil
Adding that one to my list. I like that they have whole wheat crust and cherry tomatoes and green chillies! Odd that they have a pizza on the list with spinach but it's not listed as one of the a la carte ingredients.
Panago is opening soon in the 'hood. It will be on Avenue Rd. between Lawrence and Wilson. I haven't tried them yet but they're supposed to be quite good. And they have lots of veggie options, and I know you like pizza with veggies.
re: toveggiegirl
I'm originally from Edmonton and we had Panago there. It is probably the best chain/franchise pizza that I've ever had. One thing I love (even though I'm not vegetarian)is their pizza with veggie pepperoni, mushrooms and green peppers. The chicken taco pizza is also fun.
re: toveggiegirl
That menu looks great! I love the choice of sauces!! Very interesting! I'll make a note on my pizza list to consider it in a few months or so.
re: Ediblethoughts
Panago is definately great chain pizza. In fact, I'd go so far as to say it's great pizza all round (for Toronto that is). Amazing selection of toppings that are fresh and generous. I love a thick crust and it is nice and lip smacking with just enough grease. The chorizo sausage is quite nice as is their tomato sauce.
re: food face
I liked Panago the first couple times I had it, but I've lost my taste for it. Some of their meats have a somewhat offtaste to my palate. Not sure what it is exactly, but not pleasant. I find most of their vegetarian pizzas too salty and too cheesy for my taste. I do like Panago's original crust- which is the doughy type.
Mamma's Pizza is my favourite Toronto chain that delivers.
re: phoenikia
Not sure if they deliver, but 2 doors south on Bayview do a really nice thin crust chicken tikka pizza. They have some others that are in the hybrid category, as well as some more traditional versions. I think they use naan dough, which gives almost a cracker crust.
re: phoenikia
I agrees about Mamma's. Best delivery pizza in town.
re: acd123
It is very good.
re: ebay3392
Is that the place that was in a small building/shack just west of Mt. Pleasant, maybe on Manor Rd.? If so, it's not there any longer.
I was going to scratch my head in wonder about the love-in for Classico Louie's, but realized that I already ranted about them last year... I still don't get it. They always seem dry, and while the salad portions are generous, iceberg lettuce and bottled Italian dressing??? Come on! I like old school once in a while, but that dressing is DISGUSTING!
I was a huge Massimo's pizza fan years ago, but the location wasn't convenient, and I still love Terroni's but delivery is the focus here. What about Franco Agostino's new place? Does he deliver? In terms of quality, I would suggest walking to pick it up or eating it at the bar if he doesn't deliver.... probably the best in the hood.
re: Moimoi
I'm not sure what place you're referring to?
re: Ediblethoughts
Moimoi is referring to Agostino's.
re: toveggiegirl
Thanks for the link. Too bad about the lack of e-menu; I rarely go to places if I can't peruse in advance.
re: Moimoi
I've been lurking Chowhound for a few years now, and have used it time and time again to find a place to visit when I'm hungry.
It wasn't until I followed the recommendations above and ordered from Classico Louie's that I decided to sign up for an account and post.
Classico Louie's is terrible.
I can't believe that anyone would have something good to say about this place, nevermind list it among their top choices.
The crust was something I would have found back in my high school cafeteria, and the "Italian sausage" was more akin to fried bratwurst. I am usually a pizza glutton... but this was the first time in my life that I threw away the leftovers.
I've lost a whole pile of confidence in Chowhound users' tastes, because you guys clearly don't know what you're talking about when it comes to pizza!
re: BargainHarolds
I'll be the first to admit that Classico has gone seriously downhill. I used to love it but in the past 6 months to a year it has been not just "ok" but pretty bad. I usually grab a slice to go and don't find it fresh and there is just a strange taste and texture. Not sure why.
re: wontonfm
I haven't order pizza from them in at least a year. Good to have updated info on this!
re: Selleck Stache
Mamma's pizza is the best delivery pizza in TO. There is one at Bayview and Eg and one at Allen/Eg., both within your delivery zone.
I would suggest www.pizzaville.ca - I live in the area of y&eg and they deliver. Thin crust and your choice of toppings.
re: lamaranthe
Looks good but no whole grain crust, right? (Unless I missed it...)
Mama's, Pizza Nova?? I apologize for my sarcasm, but the OP asked for "best" pizza that delivers, not "closest"... In a pinch I would go to Pizza Nova, but only if I was starving.
i originally replied to this post quite a while ago, and while I'm not a Madanto fanatic or a pizza fanatic, and I haven't had Madanto's pizza in a while or tried others in the hood that deliver, I'd say it's probably still a good bet... although given that this is a three year old posting, I'm sure the OP has long-completed and digested his transaction.
As far as surprisingly wonderful... possibly "best" pizza that MAY deliver to Yonge/Eg (they do offer delivery), I re-discovered a very authentic, old-style Italian joint on St. Clair near Bathurst yesterday called Da Maria... At one point years ago it was horrible, but I had one of the best slices ever there yesterday. Sat on the ramshackle patio while an old woman who was so slow and wobbly that I felt guilty about her serving us and offered to do the service for our table, delivered an absolutely deeelicious thin crust, cheesy pepperoni slice that was out of this world.
re: Moimoi
Da Maria is an enigma. We live nearby and we've ordered from Da Maria a number of times. They are slow and a bit expensive, which isn't all that big a deal for me if it weren't for their inconsistent product. Da Maria pizzas are totally hit and miss.
We were hooked by the Da Maria primavera pizza - we couldn't believe that run down hole in the wall was actually pretty good - but after a few orders the sheen wore off because their product is so unpredictable. Sometimes their crust is great...other times it tastes like a pre-baked crust you buy at the grocery store. I wasn't impressed by their pepperoni either, and I expected better sausage. My background is partially Italian and I can understand grocery store-esque Italian-style sausage from Pizza Pizza et al, but not from a place run by nonnas and nonnos.
We figured because the kitchen was full of old-school Italians that their non-pizza items would be good but they are of cafeteria quality at best, IMHO.
We still order the odd pizza from Da Maria hoping to catch them on their good days (and because it's a two minute walk from our place) but what we thought was a hidden gem seems to be very average, unfortunately. But we always ask how long it will take and sometimes if the wait is too long we - gulp! - just stuff it and go to the so so terrible Pizza Pizza nearby.
Big Mans quality and quantity has gone down significantly in the past few years. Here's just one example. Picked up the phone to order a couple of burgers to find out there $10 each plus taxes and no longer come with fries. So lets do some math; 2 burgers $20, 2 orders of fries $12,1 order onion rings $6,1 order of cheese cake $4,2 drinks $2.60 plus a $5 tip=$55.49. Needless to say i cancelled the order. So long Big Mans, the name's Tucker, not Sucker!!!
PS. The staff and delivery people were always nice.

Wireless LED Ceiling Light with Remote Control-Bronze 24 24
Well lite closet Brightens up the closets, so easy to use the separate switch, easy to install. Only hard part was getting the back off for the first time. Definately worth the money as the closet has no electrical wires and this is the perfect answer to the problem! March 28, 2013
wireless lights I bought these because I have a hallway & closet that are very dark and this made great sense. I haven't installed yet cause you need a special battery (23a 12v) for the remote which I found online. I wish it had come with the battery or prompted you to purchase them. Anyway, love the concept of them and can't wait to use it. That is why I gave a fair on the performance & ease of assembly. April 9, 2014
Lots of light in a small fixture! No more dark corners in the top of my closet!!! Thank you! The only (very slight) issue is that the batteries seem to not fit in real tightly, but that is no big deal in comparison to the light these little units put out. Love them! April 13, 2014
Exactly fit my need The LED Ceiling Light was exactly what I need for Cottage closet where no electruc was present June 23, 2014

Why doesn't the remote work from 20ft?
The remote and unit have fresh brand new batteries. The unit lights using the remote from 2-3 inches away which makes it impossible to mount and utilize in a ceiling. The LED lights are bright when they come on but it is impossible to keep placing the remote so near the unit to make it usable. Are there any suggestions?

Before Shop-Eat-Surf, there were two sites I paid for premium content on. One is Surfline, the other is the Wall Street Journal. One is about all things surf, the other, the best business content site in the world. Shop-eat-surf is the intersection of those two worlds. Shop-Eat-Surf provides everything from coverage of events, people, brands and trends. However, beyond the Executive Edition "wall" is more meaty analysis and interpretation of financial statements, business models and brand philosophies; why certain brands and companies are succeeding, where others aren't. The Executive Edition is a must have read if the business of surf and action sports are on your radar screen.- By Jeff Berg, Co-owner, Surfline
I find Shop-Eat-Surf to be a very useful and informative site that I enjoy browsing daily. Shop-Eat-Surf is the first thing I look at every morning to keep up-to-date on the latest talk, events, and happenings in the industry. I must say I am a fan of Shop-Eat-Surf.- By Bobby Abdel, Partner, Jack's Surfboards

Details on Industry Insight.
As we head into winter, I asked Duke Edukas of Surfside to give me his assessment of the upcoming season. Here's what he had to say:
"Last year was unarguably the poorest snowfall worldwide that anyone can remember. Many years we deal with the fact that Southern California doesn't get much natural snowfall - that's why there are so many snow-making machines in the local mountains - but we could always rely on Mammoth. Last year we couldn't rely on anything. Mammoth, The Rockies, Utah, even Europe were exceptionally dry. Even with all the news about Colorado getting all those killer blizzards was misleading, because those storms really only hit the metropolitan Denver area, not the resorts in the mountains.
"As a result, last year in retail was one of the weakest any of us have ever experienced. The thing that scares me the most is how much of last year's product is still out there. Every consumer wants a deal. If there is a glut of last season's product out there, and I'm sure there is, it's bound to effect this season's goods. The question is, how much? I think we can almost bank on the fact that this year's snow-fall is going to be better than last. But, how many consumers are going to buy this year's product offering at full price, when they might be able to find last year's stuff at phenomenal savings?
"This year, there have been many small, and in some cases large, snow retailers go out of business. If it doesn't snow this year, and I mean in the crucial early season during the Christmas and Thanksgiving holidays, not at Easter, you're going to see even more retailers throwing in the towel, so to speak. Our store is much more diverse than many. If we have another bad year, the other departments in our store will carry us through, but many retailers aren't so fortunate.
"But the question will remain, how deep do we keep going in the snow department? Our particular store has one of the largest single-store offerings of snowboard related hard-goods and soft-goods in California. I think that the only store that might have more than ours is Wave Rave in Mammoth. We have a full repair/tuning dept. and everything else, but, this department is definitely the most volatile, labor-intensive, risky departments in the whole store. If we get good snow-fall in the crucial early-season, I'm a hero, if we don't, who's the fool?"
To kick off the snow season, Surfside is having a big event Saturday, Nov. 3. The store's 15th annual Snow Carnival from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. includes carnival games, a storewide sale on snow products, lots of food and drinks and a big raffle at 3 p.m. You've got to be present to win. The sale lasts all day.

B.o.B - Generation Lost
Artist: B.o.B
Producer: B.o.B.
Album: The Adventures of B.o.B.
Avg Rating: 4.3 ( 50 votes )
Yesterday, we featured Brooklyn rapper Q da Kid, who is On A Mission to save the rap game from 'generic rappers' and put creativity and lyricism back at the forefront of music. Today, we have yet another voice of creativity in the form of a recently-featured Atlanta emcee. What makes B.o.B. different is that he started out his career as a typical rapper; complete with a grill, an Eastside tattoo, and a back-story of dropping out of high school to pursue a career in music. Eventually, though, he realized that trying to fit in would get him nowhere musically, so he decided to scrap his style and stand out amongst the Generation Lost with a guitar by his side. As his work continues to receive critical acclaim, it only builds anticipation for his Atlantic debut, The Adventures of B.o.B..

The 2011 edition of a movie critic's dream unreels again this week. In my own home town, I'll be able to show the films of my choice in a classic movie palace, flawlessly projected on a giant screen before a movie-loving audience.

It was my last film of the festival, on the morning of the day I was flying home, and it turns out to have been my favorite one. Tim Blake Nelson's "Leaves of Grass" is some kind of sweet, wacky masterpiece. It takes all sorts of risks, including a dual role with Edward Norton playing twin brothers, and it pulls them off. It is certainly the most intelligent, philosophical and poetic film I can imagine that involves five murders in the marijuana-dealing community of Oklahoma and includes John Prine singing "Illegal Smile."
Tim Blake Nelson
Sometimes you cannot believe your luck as a movie unfolds. There is a mind behind it, joyful invention, obvious ambition. As is often the case, I had studiously avoiding reading anything at all about "Leaves of Grass" before going to see the movie, although I rather doubted it would be about Walt Whitman. What I did know is that the actor Tom Blake Nelson has written and directed three films enormously admired: "Eye of God" (1997), "O" (2001) and "The Grey Zone" (2001), all three dealing in a concrete dramatic way with important questions: Religion, redemption, race, the Holocaust. And that the actor Edward Norton has never agreed to appear in a film he didn't believe he had reason to respect.
