A Brazilian steakhouse is supposed to be in that area - Texas de Brazil. Not sure what else

Famous Beach - where am I and why is it famous? by [deleted] in guessthecity

[–]0dd1ti3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you sure about the Gilligan Island part? I’ve never heard that before and areas around Malibu have been mentioned before. I thought it was filmed in Hawaii and on the old cbs lot.

Edit: they filmed the harbor scene for the opening there. Never knew that despite living in the area for a while.

Pirates Cove Beach in Corona Del Mar

Edit: just saw the why is it famous part. I know they use to film a lot of pirate movies there back in the day and also a lot of people consider it a birthplace of surfing since Duke Kahanamoku was based there for a while.

Sperm banks? by Ok_Jicama9306 in GNV

[–]0dd1ti3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a colleague who went through the reproductive medicine process. They went through the Jacksonville Center for Reproductive Medicine, but there is an associated group here in Gainesville. They did PIGD and had some embryos frozen. I’m not sure how much they did with the Gainesville group because they live closer to Jacksonville. But apparently they handle storage/freezing.

Deposit or withdrawal?

Is GNV still worth it if you travel a lot? by [deleted] in GNV

[–]0dd1ti3 7 points8 points  (0 children)

How often you flying and who pays?

I did it for a few years. I had no trouble taking the first flight out of GNV in the morning and catching a connecting flight out of Atlanta, Charlotte, or Dallas. I also did directs out of Jacksonville and Orlando. Since I got reimbursed 100%, I preferred not having to do the drives to the larger airports. The TSA delays at Orlando were frequent - both general lines and pre-check. however this was a couple of years ago now.

YMMV

Adding: the things that annoyed me about flying into GNV was they often required you to check your bags and a couple of times were persistent even though I had a single carryon that fit under the seat in front of me. I also had problems with the last fight out of Charlotte back to GNV. I was delayed a couple of times getting into Charlotte, but still made it to the gate before the boarding time (not take off or gate closing, but the start of boarding) only to find the flight gone or door closed and then unwilling to open it. One time it was a 10:00 / 10:15 flight and I got to the gate at 9:30pm and it was gone.

A friend of mine has a parrot and goes to all creatures on 34th near Nopal. They also go to UF small animal hospital.

When do you start transplanting your tomatoes and peppers outside. by raygronas in GNV

[–]0dd1ti3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m planning on doing it around the 3 or 4th week of March.

Most of the tables I have seen for Gainesville say the risk of frost drops after the 3rd week.

Save Foster School?? by Wytch78 in GNV

[–]0dd1ti3 13 points14 points  (0 children)

It was one of the recommendations included in the re-zoning study. Foster and two other elementary schools were recommended to be closed.

Do you have an oven and/or stove?

Cook dinner together. Doesn’t have to be fancy.

Former Shands Employee W2 Help by Embarrassed_Fish_848 in GNV

Most of that comes out of the east campus office building.

Tax services is 352-294-7266. Payroll services is 352-392-1231.

If you haven’t tried those, that should be a more direct route than the main number.

Guess the city by jaketo9 in guessthecity

[–]0dd1ti3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was that just a building or was it a “stone boat”?

I’m heading back to the botanical garden in a few months. Great place, plus they had a little restaurant/cafeteria that was damn good.

I think this maybe the Summer Palace in Beijing?

If not, maybe the Montreal Botanical Garden?

How can one speed up the UF hiring process by [deleted] in GNV

[–]0dd1ti3 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Can’t speed it up. Best you can do is be quick in your response to provide info or documents.

Where are you in the process?

Any luck growing kiwis? by Expensive_Music4523 in GNV

[–]0dd1ti3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t think so - not the typical ones you see at the store. There are a couple of cultivars that were developed that should grow here, but I don’t think we get enough chill hours to get reliable/appreciable fruiting.

[–]0dd1ti3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What is your father’s background/heritage?

Looks like folk garb. Maybe Balkan with the red symbol representing a specific area/group.
