Last night Nik Wallenda walked on a 5 cm braided steel wire across Niagara Falls.  I was not interested in this endeavour in the least, not until he took his first step!  ... then I was transfixed on his 550 metre journey 60 metres above the Niagara gorge.  For 25 minutes, this event captivated my mother-in-law, Vi, my wife, Helen and myself ... and millions of people around the world. Here is a link to a good ABC recap and here is a video of the entire walk: It surprised me how focused I was, and the fact that ABC made him wear a harness did not reduce my interest nor admiration for his feat in the least. ABC captured the event spectacularly, with breathtaking imagery, a live feed with Nik, and, for the most part, interesting commentary. I read reports of 120,000 people watching on the... 06/16/2012

Speechless Sundays - One of the 7 Natural Wonders We went to Ontario, Canada earlier this year and went to Niagara Falls for the first time. I truly was Speechless when I first saw the falls. I took dozens of photos and still haven't posted any yet, but thought I'd put this one out today because it's just so stunning. Niagara is one of our 7 national natural wonders. In this photo you can see the falls to the left that are on the U.S. side, and the amazing "horse shoe" falls on the Canadian side. We took the Maid of The Mist ferry ride directly into the falls and it was breathtaking.  Los Angeles Homes For Sale Los Angeles Condos For Sale Los Angeles Townhomes For Sale 09/11/2011

Watching Breakfast Television (a Toronto CITY TV network news/variety morning show) on Monday morning, we were told that a young foreign student fell into the Niagara River and went over the falls.  They were about to search for her body with helicopters as daylight came... As regular readers know, Niagara Falls and surrounding areas are a frequent mini-vacation destination for Helen, Alec and I. We will visit two or three times a year. I know exactly where that spot is... Apparently she was on the railing posing for a picture when she lost her balance and fell into the river. My immediate reactions were varied... how stupid... how sad that a happy occasion can turn tragic so quickly... Could this have been prevented?...  I thought of the people she was with, how they must have felt at ... 08/17/2011

The Bank of Canada is expected to lower its overnight lending rate by as much as a 0.50% tomorrow.  If so, this will be the second time in two weeks that the Bank of Canada has taken action to lower rates as part of its efforts to help tame the global financial crisis. Their overnight rate influences the prime lending rates charged by the chartered banks in Canada.  It can affect borrowing costs on variable-rate mortgages and lines of credit. It will be interesting to see how the Banks react.  The last time the Bank of Canada announced a half-point cut on Oct8, not all the chartered banks passed on the full effect to customers.     Gina Burgio, Mortgage Agent VERICO Designer Mortgages Inc.
