Frank Bisceglie started volunteering for the Beargrease and was hooked “The Beargrease is definitely one of our most favorite parts of the year,” Bisceglie said but make a week of coming up to the North Shore to volunteer at the Sawbill checkpoint Bisceglie roped both sets of parents into coming along pulled off at the overlook in the morning to go fetch our parents before we went to the start of the race on Sunday and begged her – convinced her to get out of the car at 6:30 for a selfie at the overlook,” he said and I cried for probably 30 seconds with no words Bisceglie said Neidecker’s favorite place in the world is Lake Superior “I just knew it had to be at Sawbill,” he said “I couldn’t have thought of a better place,” she said Any person with disabilities who needs help accessing the content of the FCC Public file should contact Vicki Kaping at vkaping@wdio.com or (218) 727-6864 The pond will be open daily from 11:30 am to 6:00 pm through August Information about obtaining family, individual, or other passes (available only to Weston residents) can be found online here You can also visit Parks and Recreation in person on weekdays The form to fill out in advance is at the link above Parks and Rec is located at 47 Norfield Road the Jarvis House on the corner of Route 57 and Norfield Road Pond passes are sold from 10:00 am to 12 noon and 1:30 pm to 4:00 pm Note: credit cards are not accepted at the office Copyright © " + thisYear + " Weston Today Unauthorized use or reproduction of Weston Today content Link IconCopy linkFacebook LogoShare on FacebookXShare on XEmailShare via EmailLink copied to clipboardJohnny’s Pizza brings the best of Philly pan pies and New York rounds — plus killer steaks — to Bryn MawrIn just two years snagging a pie from John Bisceglie at Johnny's Pizza has become a challenge at prime time while the cheesesteaks are inspiring pilgrimages from across the region where he’d spent six months training in the fine art of Brooklyn pies and let your personality take over the shop.” That may sound easier said than done: Johnny’s only sold three pizzas on its first day in November 2022 But Bisceglie had learned well about the virtues of quality and patience from his mentors. Not just Pinello, but also Nick Carelli of Philomena Santucci’s Square Pizza in Warminster where Bisceglie first found his love of pizza the buzz around Johnny’s has grown so loud that it routinely sells up to 175 pies a day with the time slots for prime weekend evening pickups (between 5 and 6:30 p.m.) already spoken for before noon I caught a glimpse of what the fuss was about when I recently popped in stopped in my tracks by a pizza emerging from the oven The heat-blistered round’s paper-thin crust radiated such a gorgeous sunburst of red sauce that when Bisceglie scattered it with a shaving of Pecorino-Romano and fragrant green plumes of ripped basil to finish we instantly changed our plans for lunch down the street and decided to stay here We took our seats in back and found ourselves amid the banter of two avid cheesesteak hunters — one who’d driven 45 minutes from Lansdale and another who’d traveled half an hour from near West Chester I realized that Johnny’s is a rare double threat: a notable stop on the region’s hungry tourist’s map for both pizza and steaks Bisceglie’s pizza game is influenced by both of his mentors in his embrace of thin-crusted New York rounds as well as Philly-style pan pies Bisceglie understands how caring deeply about the process from the quality of the toppings to the temperature and stretching of the dough The hand-crushed whole tomato sauce is balanced but flavorful and his thin-crust rounds are roasty and dynamic topped with a light touch of blended fresh and low-moisture mozzarella that adds layered flavors and texture which come with lemony ricotta and sesame seeded crusts are a direct homage to Pinello’s Best Pizza which get two hours of extra aging flavor from a double-proofing — and also speak to his Santucci’s roots The pizza’s build is technically closer to a Brooklyn grandma with a relatively thinner crust than Sicilian or Detroit styles and sporadic dabs of chunky sauce infused with a kitchen sink’s worth of onions and pantry spices The cast-iron pans are a legacy of regional pizza history: 50-year-old vintage squares from Santucci’s When these pies emerge from those well-seasoned pans their bottoms toasty with an olive oil crisp The most popular topping is cup-and-char pepperoni drizzled with hot honey “Every time I grab a bottle [of hot honey] I worry: Did I do this right?” says Bisceglie That motto of careful proportions also applies to Johnny’s cheesesteaks which are hefty at about 12 ounces of house-cut rib-eye per sandwich but hardly the overstuffed behemoths that sometimes earn popular praise The shop’s true success also lies in the details of careful execution That includes the way Johnny’s griddles its onions and coarse-chopped meat together at the same time properly seasoning it all with salt and pepper then carefully incorporating just the right amount of Cooper Sharp cheese The sesame-seeded roll is also noticeably different a whole-wheat potato loaf with a well-developed flavor that toasted in the oven just beforehand for an extra crisp has enough crust integrity to contain its juicy stuffing The bread is sourced from an artisan Philly bakery; Bisceglie There is one secret I was able to pry away: “We strictly cook the meat in butter just like I make a sirloin for myself at home,” he says It’s no wonder I couldn’t stop eating this cheesesteak It’s also no surprise that two years later those freshly painted white walls have been filled with signatures from Johnny’s customers lavishing praise on the food (and the Eagles “I wanted it to feel like Johnny’s has been here for a long time so everyone leaves their mark,” says Bisceglie who leaves a jar of colorful Sharpies alongside shakers of oregano and pepper flakes is Bisceglie’s transformation of a Main Line pizza institution into something truly his own 1025 W.

Neither alternative could hold more than two courts but both would have been easier and cheaper to build on Work at the park will involve removing some trees Ungar said the project will cost about $75,000 more than the Onion Barn location would have $100,000 was approved for pickleball in the town’s allocation of ARPA grants and the Parks and Recreation Enterprise Fund will cover the rest of total costs which come to about $250,000 for three courts The Enterprise Fund consists of revenue generated by Parks and Recreation programs He said the fund was used last year to pay for pond repairs and is healthy and added that costs could reduce if the Department of Public Works is able to perform some of the work is to begin construction this winter to make that summer opening The pair didn’t find much space at their previous loan stops so let’s hope that it works out a bit better this time around He’s currently the number one for the Italy U20s and should be a Serie A-level custodian within a half decade or so it was perhaps a bit optimistic to expect him to compete for the starting role with Cosenza in Serie B this year; the Lupi are 14th and just outside the drop zone but this is still the second-tier of calcio It was always a big ask for a 19-year-old to leapfrog a couple of experienced players in Umberto Saracco and Pietro Perina and nobody should be shocked that Cerofolini wasn’t quite able to do so and should easily be first choice for the Nerrazzuri Stellati who just lost starter Diamante Crispino to Siracusa is a less-heralded prospect but still a solid performer at youth level for the Viola More of an old-fashioned fullback than a wingback he never quite fit into manager Alessandro dal Canto’s 3-5-2 formation; he hasn’t logged a minute all year With fellow youngsters Leonardo Longo and Fabio Delvino as competition on the right flank of Rodolfo Vanoli’s 4-3-3 he should have a fighting chance to earn some playing time although Longo seems pretty well entrenched as the starter it should help him to at least have a chance to win a berth in his first assignment outside of the Viola system Located on the Adriatic coast in the Barletta-Andria-Trani region of Apulia the club has bounced around the amateur leagues and Serie D for most of its history; the past two years in Serie C represent its zenith as the Nerrazzurri Stellati (who don’t even have their own website) currently sit 17th of 20 teams in Serie C-C with 15 points from 21 matches The greatest concern is certainly the attack which has garnered a genuinely embarrassing 9 goals; the defense is alright but nothing to write home about Supply-chain attacks have dented the global economy over the past year Interos CEO Jennifer Bisceglie saw it coming – 16 years ago And now some of the biggest names in cybersecurity are rewarding her startup with $100 million in funding.  Bisceglie's supply-chain security company Interos which uses artificial intelligence to monitor physical and cyber threats is pulling in a $100 million Series C round on Thursday taking it to a valuation of over $1 billion and its total prior funding was $25.8 million.  Supply-chain risk has always been a problem Many didn't even know if they were affected.  Interos' cloud-based platform uses AI to create a real-time global map capable of zooming in on  any single supplier with analysis of how your company connects to it Its phones are ringing off the hook – it says inbound calls are up 500% this year Revenue is "on the road to $50 million this year and $100 million next year," the company says.  Bisceglie is not surprised by the huge spike in interest I always knew it was a technology that was needed The last 18 months have put supply-chain risk at the forefront of the national and global consciousness The world didn't realize how big the supply-chain risk problem actually is Some of the biggest names in cybersecurity are singing the praises of Bisceglie and Interos a dean of cybersecurity funding with venerable VC Kleiner Perkins is also continuing his investment of Interos in the round the CEO of Mandiant and former CEO of FireEye is on its advisory board the chief information security officer of Google Cloud a senior vice president at F5 Security and former CEO and co-founder of Shape Security.  "I came to her," DeWalt told Insider of approaching Bisceglie to lead the funding round He believes in Interos'   mission of shining a light on supply-chain risk "Lack of visibility is the root of all evil when it comes to supply-chain risk Interos was the only company we saw that addresses that gap The analysts Markets and Markets show the market for supply-chain management was $23.2 billion in 2020 The analyst Pitchbook found that venture investment in supply chain tech startups totaled $7.7 billion in Q1 2021 Bisceglie gathered vast expertise on supply-chain security pulling in 40 consultants who could help clients and "building an incredible intellectual property of understanding exactly what the supply chain risks are globally." She worked with companies including Manhattan Associates American Eagle Outfitters.  That expertise led to her testifying before Congress five times in the past but DeWalt believes Bisceglie will be even more in demand in the future "I think she could be the spokesperson to the world on supply-chain risk," he said.  Interos today announced global SaaS executive Ted Krantz will join the company as Chief Executive Officer to work alongside Jennifer Bisceglie who will assume a new role as Founder & Executive Vice Chair both joining the Interos Board of Directors Krantz and Bisceglie will work together to usher in a new chapter of growth and build on a record year of momentum Organizations today face an estimated $2.5 trillion in annual losses from supply chain disruptions Bisceglie was an early visionary to recognize this critical challenge nearly two decades ago founding Interos and building an AI-first company that helps numerous Global Fortune 500 companies and many other leading organizations proactively mitigate supply chain risk Interos was recently recognized as one of Inc magazine’s Fastest-Growing Private Companies in North America and named a Fastest-Growing Technology Company in North America on Deloitte’s Technology Fast 500 “Interos has been on a powerful trajectory as organizations and government agencies have awoken to the tangible and immediate impacts of supply chain disruptions I look forward to writing the next chapter in Interos’ journey to help customers take control of risk for competitive advantage,” said Jennifer Bisceglie Interos has seen significant growth and momentum in 2023 including +50% ARR growth and +60% improvement in gross margin Its recent launch of Interos Resilience Watchtower™ empowers customers with industry-first personalized risk intelligence for a faster and more precise risk response a dynamic company well positioned to be the primary artificial intelligence player in the supply chain ecosystem,” said Ted Krantz “Jennifer and the Interos team have built an incredible company and groundbreaking supply chain operational resilience technology that is helping some of the world’s most influential companies and government organizations automate supplier risk to get in front of disruptions I look forward to working together with Jennifer and the team to accelerate this success and scale the organization forward into the future.” Krantz has more than 20 years of CEO and executive leadership experience at artificial intelligence market leaders and ERP organizations He is uniquely positioned to lead the adoption of artificial intelligence to mitigate systemic threats and drive scale for next-generation supply chain resilience AI He brings deep digital and sector expertise including a history of strong operational rigor and a demonstrated track record of driving impressive growth at various stages of multiple SaaS AI companies Krantz joins Interos most recently from leading mobile intelligence platform data.ai where he served as CEO and helped drive significant recurring revenue growth and the use of artificial intelligence technology across nearly all the company’s product lines he held top go-to-market and sales roles at organizations including Skai “Interos has made extraordinary inroads in helping organizations mitigate the multi-trillion-dollar supply chain challenge In a classic ‘better together’ story go-to-market and operational expertise to the table alongside Jennifer’s visionary leadership and industry knowledge to accelerate Interos and its customers to the next stage of growth and position the company to capitalize on the immense opportunity ahead of it,” said Dave DeWalt member of the Board of Directors and Founder and CEO © Copyright 2012 - 2023 | citybiz | All Rights Reserved Text description provided by the architects.

"The Fire District apparently tried to 'cover its tracks' by inappropriately rewriting history — attempting to alter the agenda-based grounds for the executive session discussion," the lawsuit states Toms River MUA job: Toms River: Ex-Republican Club president gets $120K MUA job The changed agendas are "an Orwellian attempt to erase history," according to the lawsuit Learn more about the suit in the video above this story Named as defendants in Kubiel's suit are the board of fire commissioners and commissioner Craig Ambrosio as one of five District 1 fire commissioners But Ambrosio also works as Toms River's director of parks his six township council colleagues and Mayor Thomas F Kelaher are Ambrosio's supervisors for his township job Ambrosio has a clear conflict of interest since Kubiel is his employer Too old?: Age cap for politicians? Cummings The lawsuit asks a Superior Court judge to void the board of commissioners' decision to hire the law firm to investigate Kubiel's conduct wants the court to prevent Ambrosio from participating in actions involving Kubiel and also asks a judge to stop the fire district from discussing Kubiel's employment without notifying him in advance the Union-based lawyer representing Ambrosio and the other fire commissioners termed Kubiel's lawsuit "a big waste of time." who specializes in employment-related litigation as well as defending public entities said his firm has been hired to investigate Bisceglie's complaint as well as defend the fire commissioners against Kubiel's lawsuit "My position on the lawsuit is that that it's really moot," Varady said There's been no adverse employment action at all."
