Lights, camera, action
Capture beautiful videos in Full HD with the Sony Handycam HDR-CX260V/B digital camcorder, which performs well in a variety of shooting situations. You'll create high resolution movies with Optical SteadyShot image stabilization to minimize blur, and you can even take sharp 8.9MP photos as well. Intelligent Auto mode helps you get the best footage every time by automatically selecting the best scene mode and reducing wind noise.

Information and communication technologies in education
Information and communication technologies in education refers to teaching and learning the subject matter that enables understanding the functions and effective use of information and communication technologies (ICTs). As of 2004, a review and contextualization of the literature on teaching ICT as a subject implied that there was limited, systematically-derived, quality information.[1]
Educating educators about technology[edit]
In order to use technology effectively, educators need to be trained in using technology and they need to develop a good understanding of it. Technology is used to enhance learning, therefore it is important for educators to be comfortable using it to ensure that students get the full advantages of educational technology.[2] Teaching with technology is different from teaching in a typical classroom. Teachers must be trained in how to plan, create, and deliver instruction within a technological setting. It requires a different pedagogical approach. Teachers must find a way to assess students on what they take away from a class and meaningful, known knowledge, especially within an eLearning setting.[3] Education will only change when our design methods, perspectives, and values change. Teachers have many roles when instruction is designed. They can be artists, architects, craftspeople, and engineers. Technology does not mean that using interactive electronic boards and LCD PowerPoint presentation is the most effective. So many more applications are available for students to be hands-on with their learning and gain deeper knowledge than they could before.
Technology training appears to focus mainly on technology knowledge and skills while overlooking the relationships between technology, pedagogy, and content.[2] As a result, teachers learn about "cool" stuff, but they still have difficulty applying it for their students' learning. Teacher candidates need opportunities to practice effective technology integration strategies in supportive contexts during technology courses, technology-integrated methods courses, and field experiences. Experienced teachers also need opportunities to learn about new technologies and ways to integrate them effectively in their classroom. Teacher education programs can facilitate improvements not only in students' technology skills but also in their beliefs and intentions regarding integrating technology into instruction. Technology training directly affects pre-service teachers' self-efficacy and value beliefs, which in turn influence their student-centered technology use.[4] [5]

Precision pressure test gages
Fluke introduces the 700G Series for high accuracy in harsh environments.
Fluke Corporation, a leader in portable electronic test and measurement technology, has introduced its 700G Series precision pressure test gages: nine easy-to-use, rugged, and reliable models that deliver highly accurate pressure measurements in the harshest industrial environments.
The 700G Series models can measure -14 to 15 psi with a resolution of 0.001 psi (model 700G04) to -14 to 10,000 psi with a 1 psi resolution (model 700G31) with a 0.05% total measurement uncertainty for one year, providing pressure testing for virtually any application. They can log up to 8,493 pressure measurements to memory when used in conjunction with 700G/Track software.
All models feature a bright backlit display for easy viewing of data in any environment, ¼ in. NPT or ¼ in. ISO adapter for fast connections, and a rubber holster that protects the gage and makes it easier to hold. All units in the family have an intrinsically safe rating of CSA: Class1, Div 2, Groups A-D and ATEX: II 3 G Ex nA IIB T6 for work in areas classified to include explosive gasses.
Pressure test kits
The 700G Series offers two optional test kits to provide complete pressure testing solutions. The 700PTPK pneumatic test kit and 700HTPK hydraulic test kit include hand pumps, hoses, and adapters, and can be combined with any 700G Series gage to create complete, portable test systems. Both kits include a hard case to protect the pump and gage while allowing the gage to remain connected to the pump.
For users who need to record and analyze pressure measurements over time, Fluke 700G/TRACK logging software allows logging data to be downloaded to a PC. Logging configurations can be downloaded to 700G Series gages for remote logging events. Those measurements can then be uploaded and displayed on a PC, or exported for further analysis. 700G/TRACK includes a cable for communications to a PC.

Annual Salary Survey
Participate in the 2013 Salary Survey
In a year when manufacturing continued to lead the economic rebound, it makes sense that plant manager bonuses rebounded. Plant Engineering's annual Salary Survey shows both wages and bonuses rose in 2012 after a retreat the year before.
Average salary across all job titles for plant floor management rose 3.5% to $95,446, and bonus compensation jumped to $15,162, a 4.2% increase from the 2010 level and double the 2011 total, which showed a sharp drop in bonus.

Judge Mark Stevens will decide if statements homicide suspects Ashley Barber and Jade Olmstead made to authorities allegedly confessing their guilt will be admitted at their trial in Crawford County Court of Common Pleas.
Barber, 20, and Olmstead, 19, both of 29558 Drake Hill Road, Cochranton, are charged by Pennsylvania State Police with brutally beating and then burying Brandy Stevens, 19, while she still was alive in a shallow grave near the home the two shared in Wayne Township on May 17 2012.
Defense attorneys for the two women and the commonwealth appeared Thursday before Stevens for a pretrial hearing in county court on a variety of issues including whether the initial detention of the two women by state police was valid; and if the women's subsequent statements allegedly admitting the crime to police should be admissible at trial.
Stevens ordered defense attorneys Robert Draudt for Barber and John Knorr for Olmstead to file legal briefs on their respective arguments by Sept. 13 and gave District Attorney Francis Schultz until Sept. 20 to respond.
Pennsylvania State Police have charged Barber and Olmstead with homicide, conspiracy to commit homicide and tampering with physical evidence.
Authorities allege Barber and Olmstead lured Stevens of Beaver Township, Mahoning County, Ohio, to the Wayne Township home, brutally beat her and buried Stevens in the woods in a 22-inch deep grave while Stevens was still alive.
Police allege the crime stemmed from a love triangle between the three women.
The women allegedly confessed to police that they used a shovel to beat Stevens, cracked open Stevens' skull and choked her with a rope before placing the woman in the shallow grave and burying her while Stevens still was alive.
Testimony at Thursday's hearing, which lasted about four hours, came only from Pennsylvania State Police officers connected with the case. Neither of the women's alleged taped confessions was played in court.
Pennsylvania State Police initially were involved in the case assisting Ohio authorities in Stevens' disappearance since Stevens had intended to travel to the Barber home to visit the two women, according to testimony at Thursday's hearing.
Stevens' Kia Rio was found at the Barber home on Drake Hill Road, but Stevens was nowhere to be found. Police had spoken with Barber and Olmstead at the home but wanted to speak with them further about Stevens.
On May 23, 2012, James Barber, Ashley Barber's father, signed a Pennsylvania State Police "Missing Person Declaration" alleging his daughter was missing, Trooper Eric Mallory testified.
Both Barber and Olmstead were found the afternoon of May 23, 2012, by Trooper Joseph Streyle, who was off-duty at the time and traveling at the Park Avenue Plaza.
Streyle testified Thursday he spotted the women near the woods under the overpass of Smock Bridge in Vernon Township. Streyle testified the women matched the descriptions of Barber and Olmstead and that both women turned away from him when he drove by them in his own vehicle.
Streyle said he saw the women then get in a car driven by an unknown man and Streyle decided to follow after, contacting the state police barracks in Meadville.
Streyle said he caught up with the vehicle with the man, Barber and Olmstead at a traffic light at Willow Street and Park Avenue in Meadville. Streyle said he exited his vehicle, identified himself as a state trooper, showing the driver his police badge, and asked the driver to park in the parking lot of the former Sandy's European Marketplace building.
Streyle said the driver complied and Streyle got some information from both women before both Meadville Police and state police officers arrived on the scene a few minutes later.
Cpl. Kurt Sitler testified both Barber and Olmstead were advised state police wanted to speak to them about Stevens' disappearance and Barber also was told that her father had declared her a missing person.
Sitler said both women were asked to go to the state police barracks but that they were not in custody nor were they under arrest. Both women voluntarily rode with officers in separate vehicles back to the barracks where they were interviewed, Sitler said.
Barber and Olmstead initially were interviewed separately — Barber by Mallory and Olmstead by Trooper Dale Wimer.
Both Wimer and Mallory testified Thursday that Olmstead and Barber were not handcuffed or restrained during their interviews.
Mallory testified that Barber's initial interview concluded when Barber asked to see either Olmstead or a lawyer.
"It's all going to come out anyway. I want to talk to Jade first." Mallory quoted Barber as saying.
Barber's request to see Olmstead was granted and the two women were allowed to spend time alone together in an interview room with food and drinks, Mallory said.
Mallory said he and Trooper Todd Giliberto re-entered the interview room after Barber and Olmstead were allowed to eat and Mallory advised the women of their rights.
Both women were interviewed together but later were separated, Mallory said.
In her subsequent separate interview, Olmstead eventually provided additional information about Stevens' death, Mallory said.
Barber then was interviewed again alone and told of Olmstead's statement, Mallory said. Barber then provided information on Stevens' death, Mallory said.
Following Thursday's hearing, both women were returned to the Crawford County jail without bond.
Barber and Olmstead currently are scheduled to go to trial in Crawford County court in November.

'Batman and Robin'
©Warner Bros/Courtesy Everett Collection
"This was super camp – Batman collides with Studio 54. Aesthetically, it's kind of mad, and not good for Batman's health. George Clooney is a patrician version of Batman, and Chris O'Donnell is a weird kind of Robin. He plays it just slightly too old for it, and you can't imagine how he could get caught up in this at all. I think the Schumacher films almost fill that space. The next generation of Batman filmmakers after Chris Nolan, I think, will find inspiration in these movies, although not necessarily the general tone of them."

An important route south of the metro to reopen soon. The road has been closed since October 15th during the construction of the new Burlington Northern-Santa Fe Railroad bridge over the Missouri River.
The Cassgram reports David Duke, the project manager for Ames Construction, told Cass County Commissioners this week he had some "good news." The construction pace has advanced a little ahead of schedule, he said, and it's anticipated—weather permitting—that the stretch of county road east of Plattsmouth along the river will be opening by February 25th. There is still some construction clean-up and then re-graveling to do, and then the county roads department and District 2 County Commissioner Janet McCartney will do a drive-through inspection with Ames company officials before the opening.
The schedule announced last fall pegged the re-opening for March 1st.

RALEIGH — Theres no such thing as a bad home movie.
So said John Waters, a celebrated filmmaker with a love of the campy and bizarre who described these homemade documentaries as mini-underground opuses revealing, scary, joyous, always flawed, filled with accidental art.
With that in mind, Raleigh wants all your dusty masterpieces.
On Oct. 19, the State Archives hosts its annual Home Movie Day, part of a worldwide drive to watch and preserve these nuggets of history decaying in a thousand attics: tricks performed by long-dead dogs; naked toddlers in kiddie pools; prom dresses too puffy to be believed.
Bring them downtown, and Skip Elsheimer of the film preservationist group A/V Geeks will play them on the big screen. Hell even burn you a new copy on DVD.
These are little cultural artifacts, said Elsheimer, a longtime collaborator at Home Movie Day. They give us an idea of who we were and what we did.
Now in its 11th year, Home Movie Day has spread to 56 cities worldwide, from Argentina to Japan. Raleighs event remains one of the best-attended, at times drawing more than 100 people with their discarded films.
The event takes on new vitality with the equipment for making home movies in nearly everybodys pocket or purse. Twenty years ago, home movies were the province of grandparents and forced viewings. Now in the world of YouTube, the value of amateur video is clear as a smartphone screen.
My students immediately get why this stuff is interesting and important, said Devin Orgeron, director of Film Studies at N.C. State University, who also collects and writes about home movies. Looking at their own, he said, students ask, Whats going to happen to this when Im gone?
A glimpse of Hitler
Elsheimer got involved with home movies after hearing talk at archivists conferences describing them as cultural documents without a curator.
Nobody was actively caring for them or talking about taking care of them, and that was kind of scary, he said.
In his years of shepherding home movies out of obscurity, Elsheimer has seen:
• A woman bringing in a discarded film showing her parents as professional clowns, dancing and joking with 30 of their rubber-nosed colleagues.
• A man arrive with the movie he picked up at an estate sale that showed strangers travels through Europe in the 1930s, in which they bumble into a Hitler rally.
• A fellow unearth the music video he made with his chums in the 1950s, featuring their rendition of Get A Job, by The Silhouettes.
Sometimes this material is found after a long time of disuse. Other times it gets inherited. On occasion, it gets discovered during a move. But however its found, theres often no accompanying equipment to view it.
Two years ago, a couple brought in footage of their wedding that theyd never seen. A guest shot it and gave it to them, but they lacked a projector.
Along with projectors, A/V Geeks bring telecines to digitize films. Film can long outlast a VHS tape or DVD, so dont throw one out.
Magic in the dark
Orgerons own collection, and interest, began thanks to such hoarding.
At an estate sale in Washington, D.C., he picked up what he described as a beat-up old warhorse of a projector and got a collection of home movies thrown in as a bonus, not thinking to ask any details about the family who starred in them.
I just liked gadgetry, he said. I liked the smell of burning dust.
But once he watched them, he saw a husband and wife team of world travelers, accompanied by their child and what appeared to be his college chum, traipsing over Thailand and prewar Vietnam. Soon he was hooked on acquiring more home movies.
If its a couple dollars, he said, I dont have anything to lose.
Donations to the archives are encouraged but not mandatory. Its helpful to see what Chapel Hill looked like in the 1950s, how a kid celebrated a birthday or how a bread-winning father wore a suit.
Even though its not about a famous person, it still has value, said Kim Anderson, an archivist for the state. Its valuable for reasons other than why it was shot.
It might not make John Waters salivate, but if you dig your movie out of hibernation, it could make a little magic in the dark.

Polpettina homestyle pizza kitchen (Fisher Ave. Eastchester) this is so much more than just pizza...
Polpettina homestyle pizza kitchen is located in the space previously occupied by Chubby's, La Eateria... I passed by several times over the past few weeks and finally decided to stop in to grab a menu.
The restaurant has been completely renovated ( I will post pics when I can) It is small with only a few tables, I am sure they will be doing a brisk take out business. It has more of a Brooklyn vibe than Westchester I mean that in a good way. The owners were really friendly and take pride in the fact that they use only high quality local ingredients. The menu is comprised of interesting salads for example ( escarole with pancetta vinaigrette, crispy shallots, rehydrated apricots and a deep fried egg) yum. Five sandwich choices. There is mortadella with creamy dijon, escarole, fontina, brioche and roast pork with cilantro cream, house pickled veggies on chibatta... There are beef or pork meatballs and an Asian inspired chicken meatball. In addition there are several varieties of fries such as spicy chili, truffle parmesan..., grandma pies with toppings that include escarole, potato, pancetta, egg... There is also pappardelle bolognese, spaghetti with tomato, basil, onion and penne vodka and several vegetable sides. Daily specials are also available.
Salads are $8, sandwiches $10, meatballs $7 pasta $14
I ordered the roast pork sandwich and a slice of potato, escarole pie both were delicious. I am so grateful to have this new addition to the hood
Sounds very interesting, chowdom. It's not on my usual route, so could remind me: If you're heading north on 22, where do you make your left?
re: roxlet
Roxlet you would make the left at the light at the intersection that was recently under construction. Stop & shop on your right, mobile station on the left.
I just looked at the photo I took of the blackboard that has the desserts listed. Cinnamon sugar zeppoles with blue bottle coffee mascarpone, chocolate mousse with whipped cream & dulce de leche, and amaretto ricotta cheese cake with grand marnier zabaglione.
Has anyone checked polpettina out yet? They don't have a website but they have a facebook page with a menu posted. http://www.facebook.com/pages/Polpett... I have been back several times with friends who have returned with more friends. OMG the warm marinated olives with smoked lardo and pecorino toasts.
re: chowdom
I went for the second time last night. I am so excited about this place, definitely a nice addition to the neighborhood. Fresh and delicious food, bringing a new twist to the usual Italian found in these parts. Beef meatballs are amazing, and so are the fries and the thin crust pie. They also have a small bar and a their liquor license. Rumor is that they are expanding next door.
Below is a link to the thread where I posted a few additonal photos of recent meals http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/776265
I stopped by there today to pick up some lunch, and I am sorry to say that I wasn't blown away. Maybe I chose wrong, and I will definitely go back to try some other offerings just in case. I decided that I wanted a salad, and the arugula with beets and burata sounded good. Truthfully, it was kind of bland. The arugula was the baby type that you can find in any good market and that has very little of the peppery bite you associate with arugula. The burata wasn't a true burata -- more of a soft piece of mozzarella, and there were 3 or 4 pieces of pecan halves thrown in for good measure. The dressing was extremely light almost to the point of being tasteless. The beets were sort of woody tasting. It was the kind of salad that if I had made at home I would feel was missing something. Although it was a main course salad, there wasn't really enough for lunch. I decided to order a piece of the square cheese pizza. It was extremely under-seasoned, and I added both salt and red pepper flakes to get it to taste like anything. Maybe I should have ordered one of the sandwiches or the meatballs, but this was definitely a tepid introduction to Polpettina.
re: roxlet
I can hit the place with a ball I live so close and have only been once. I guess that should say something. I must admit, that the prices are the drawback. I have a friend who ordered a pie with one topping and a meatball wedge and it came to $31 pre-tax. I finally caved in and had to try it. I will start by saying, I love Chubby's as a deli and thought most of their pizza's were very good. While it never got the kudos for it's entrees and sandwiches, they were top notch. La Eateria was almost as good with most and actually better with one or two pizzas. I wasn't in the mood to spend $10-11 for a sub and definitely not $7 for little meatballs, so I went with two slices. I ordered one with chicken parm and one white slice. The chicken parm was good and the white was average at best. What I couldn't understand (in comparison to the older two places) was the wait. I watched them flip the pizza right in the oven as soon as I ordered. A good 7-8 minutes went by before I got my slices (as opposed to 3-4 at Chubby's). What floored me was when they told me the price. $9.25 for two slices of pizza. While I can't say they were bad, they definitely weren't worth $10. I asked locals about it and while the place is packed every night, I have heard the food is very hit or miss.
re: jhopp217
re: Cashvalue
There is no saying I hate more than "it is what it is," but Roma's is what it is. I used to hate it. When I moved from Brooklyn in 1985, I liked real pizza. I tried Roma's and to me it tasted like a burnt pita bread with a tomato and cheese. Westchester pizza has always been pretty bad in comparison, but over the last 25 years, it's hit new lows. Roma's, consistently put forth a decent thin crust pizza. So I liked it more than the crap regular slices in the area. That being said, I had it two weeks ago and it was unspectacular. I really have to go to Polpettina and sit there, because the four slices I got to go (on two different occasions) were average and awful. Must have been a bad night. I'm scared when you say best pizza ever. Have you been to Lincoln Lounge? It blows Roma's out of the water. Pretty much any place in Brooklyn in the 70's and 80's make Lincoln Lounge seem bad, so take that for what it's worth.
What is the roast pork sandwich like? I am wondering if it is anything at all like the Philly style pork sandwich which is thin slices of pork shoulder meat (whole shoulder right out of the oven) dipped in a juice bath and piled onto a roll with sharp provolone and broccoli rabe or greens (with tons of garlic). I mean, I am not expecting the EXACT same thing, but something close. Places that say they have a roast pork sandwich are usually just selling a cold deli meat version. Been jonesin' for a good sandwich (besides Fleetwood Joe's meatball wedge) since I moved back here from Philly.
We had lunch there today and shared a thin crust pizza. It was quite good. We will go back to try other things. DH wants to try the meatballs. I'm up for a sandwich. It's an easy walk from our house so at least we burn a few calories!
re: magnolia
We are very excited about this place. Had lunch there and ordered a Neopolitan pizza which was outstanding. I also got a soft crab sandwich with frisee and spicy aioli which was also great (and unforeseen at a pizza kitchen). As mentioned above, the vibe is more Brooklyn than Westchester which is a breath of fresh air to us.
They are expanding into the space next door as soon as permits are approved. This space will include a coffee bar.
My wife wanted to go back for dinner the same day we ate lunch there! Can't wait to try more specials. The only minor critique is that they overloaded the pizza with pork meatballs which overwhelmed the delicate thin crust (we got half plain). But we'll be back again and again and hope they do well.
Now if we can get someone to put a high quality, simple "local, organic, simple, american" place in bronxville, we'll be all set. Maybe we'll convince the Polpettina guys to branch out!
re: dbunis
Went on Friday night and all I have to say is WOW! Tiny and cramped for our big eating crew of 5 but well worth it. Had multiples of the beef balls, chicken balls, neopolitan pie, spagetti with gravy, the zeppoles & the chocolate cake. Can't vouch for take out here but eating in was heavenly! I hope the expansion of the 'market" does not effect the quality and just gives us more seating for eating in! Parking sucks but well worth the walk. If the owners read this please open another branch in Rye, Rye Brook or Port Chester PLEASE!!
re: cubanat
re: cubanat
re: chowdom
You know now that you mention it upon leaving I noticed a few items written on the blackboard almost on the ceiling above the bar. They looked incredible but the servers did not mention them earlier so I'm not sure if they were old or not. is that where they would be if they had them? I want to go back now...
re: cubanat
Yes the specials are on those boards most days they are posted on their facebook page as well, but usually not until early evening. you can always call and ask. The board all the way to the right lists the desserts. I am particularly fond of anything that involves their gelato. Many of the photos I posted on the various polpettina threads are of specials... When they have them do not miss the scallops either. Last week was spaghetti & clams with uni butter sauce, and baby bok choy with ginger & garlic...
Geez someone once accused me of being a shill for the restaurant I can see why...
re: chowdom
I know I apprciate it shill or not! Went back for lunch yesterday with group of 3. The escarole salad is gold medal worthy. Should be on list for best new dish in county easily. steak sandwich was tasty. stewed peach dessert was simply perfect. honey mascarpone was unbelievably good. pork meatballs were best of 3 imo. french fries "polpettina" also stellar. love this place. eating leftover steak sandich now for lunch...
I live near this place and am interested. However, we have kids, and they don't seem to have kids portions. The menu says you can get slices of the Grandma pizza, but it doesn't have a price. How much are they? Are they big enough for a 9 year old to eat for dinner? How big is the large pizza?
This neighborhood is nearly all families with kids. I think I am typical in that I would really like a place with decent pizza, but I need to feed my kids without going bankrupt. I suspect they are going to need to cater to families to make it in that location. Hopefully they will. The old occupant, Chubbys, was dreadful.
re: rgny
Why not call the restaurant and ask them? 914.961.0061
Or post your questions on their facebook page.
Or, perhaps, stop by?
re: mrsdebdav
re: mrsdebdav
re: rgny
They are not delivering anymore ( as of August 1st) , as per their facebook page, delivery was being discontinued. They did explain that the integrity of the food was being compromsied. They offer half portions of most of the dishes albeit not cheap as they use organic and and quality ingredients. I have eaten in many times and more often than not see families dining with children.
Just had a great pizza dinner at Polpettina. We were really impressed with it! The place is TINY, even tinier than I thought. We got there early (5 pm on the nose) and they seated us at the bar, which is not great for more than 2 people. Luckily a large party got up a couple of minutes after we arrived and we were able to sit down at a table. This place is totally no-frills casual, but they obviously care a great deal about the food they turn out. They have two great local beers on tap (plus a lot more in bottles), both Capt. Lawrence. We shared the farmhouse salad, which came with a buttermilk dressing full of fresh dill, pickled carrots and onions, and assorted lettuces. We ordered a Neapolitan pie and a Grandma's pie, both $18 (pretty comparable to a place like Frankie and Fanucci's for example, and enough for 4 hungry people). Both were excellent. The Neapolitan has a thin, flop-free, crisp crust with a good char, and a flavorful sauce and plentiful cheese. The Grandma's (which we got topped with their much-lauded meatballs) provided a great contrast-- thicker crust, saucier and cheesier, equally delicious. For dessert we shared a hot chocolate and gelato, which they get from the city (maybe il laboratorio? The waiter was not sure)-- dark chocolate and salted caramel which were both stupendously rich and creamy. Our server and all the staff we encountered were genial and welcoming. If you are looking for a casual meal a step above a typical pizzeria (i.e., not cheap but superior ingredients), this is your place. It's loud, crowded, and nothing fancy, so keep that in mind. I'll definitely be back to try more of the menu.

re: i_eat_a_lot_of_ice_cream
re: cubanat
The market side opened and was stocked with Italian specialty items. There was also a large coffee bar and cases with breakfast pastries, in addition they were were serving food.
The town shut them down because the space is zoned for retail only. There is an online petition circulating seeking approval of a use variance, that will presented to the town commissioner next Wednesday.
For the short time that both sides were open they were doing a brisk business and the wait time for a table was drastically reduced.
re: chowdom
"Market?" Everyone knew this was not going to be a market. While I find the pizza very average, I do wish to try some of the other items I've heard raved about, specifically their meatballs and I do genuinely wish them the best. I just think it takes some cojones to put money into something without obtaining a permit. This happened before when East Bamboo opened up and I have heard rumblings, they will not be as lenient, because that is a more residential spot and parking and noise will become a definite issue, unlike the location of EB. I know people who were located in that spot before who were turned down.
re: chowdom
re: i_eat_a_lot_of_ice_cream
re: jhopp217
That makes sense. We had a lot of trouble finding a space. I imagine that if more restaurant seats were added the parking would be even worse. It's a very residential area. That said, this place is great and I'd love to see more seats and less of a wait, so I wonder what, if anything, can be done to improve the situation.
This place is a great addition to the neighborhood. Despite space/parking issues, it is a real gem. Local brews, awesome pizza & great atmosphere. We found the pizza to be much better when you eat in vs. take out bc of the thinner/crispy style crust. After trying Burrata, Polpettina wins my vote!
re: kazykobes
You tried Burrata already? It's been open a half a second, haha. I must try polpettina again, because I went when they first opened and didn't like the pizza at much at all. I am hoping Burrata makes it and works out whatever kinks. Polpettina is always packed, so i've been hesitant to go back to sit
re: jhopp217
A margarhita pie @ Burrata which was 4 small slices & a personal size pizza was $12, the "fancier pies" $14-$17, all personal sized. @ Polpettina I like the thin style & went pie vs slices. The Polpetina pie was tasty & fed 3 people just fine with a shared salad. I also enjoyed PPTina's pasta & meatballs. Burratas menu is a liitle more "sophisticated" in choices but also limited. It's worth a try, but don't expect traditional NYC style pizza or you will be dissapointed.
re: kazykobes
Went to polpettina last night with a few people and had a great time. I have been there before for a quick slice and enjoyed it but i really wanted to dine in and try their entrees. We had a brooklyn pie to start. thin crust and delicious. We all had pasta dishes. I had the rigatoni carbonara with truffles and pancetta. so amazing. my husband had the papadella with bolognese . equally amazing. my friends had the eggplant parm and tomato basil pasta. they were very pleased. Finished the night off with some cappuccinos and zeppolis. The zeps had a marscapone dipping sauce which was to die for!. Very pleased i would go again any day of the week.
re: kazykobes
I want to try both. I've had the pizza at polpettina twice and was unimpressed. Fairly flavorless IMO. I was at Piper's Kilt last night and I heard Burrata was so mobbed they were turning people away at 7pm and that they were booked for tonight already. Only heard two reviews from friends and both said good, but pricey. I could care less about price if it's good. Roma's is very good, but I don't like the atmosphere, so I never go there. Burrata and Polpettina both look great, but the proof is in the food. I also hear great things about Chianti on Marbledale. Would be nice if something other than Italian would open up
The square pie at lincoln lounge is the best
I was at the cafe to meet a friend for coffee today, and since it was almost past the lunch hour, I decided to go in to the restaurant proper to get some lunch. This was only my second encounter with Polpettina, the last being underwhelming. Instead of a salad and pizza, which I had ordered last time, I ordered the chicken parm sandwich to go. When I got home, I bit into the nicely prepared sandwich, but after a couple of bites, I had to toss it. This was perhaps the most inedibly garlicky thing that I have ever had the misfortune to eat, and let me tell you, I love garlic. My mouth still has the flavor even after brushing my teeth and using mouthwash. The people are so nice, I would love to love this place, but I am sorry to say that this second experience will be my last.
re: roxlet
I have a friend who praised this place when it first opened, but said it's gone downhill quickly. As I've stated before, I've tried it twice, four different slices. Very underwhelming. I also have noticed in the past three months they have posted job offers for pizza chefs, multiple times. Not a good sign. I would love for the place to be great, because it's literally 100 yards from my door. I miss Chubby's.
re: roxlet
re: chowdom
How do you know that they don't prepare their chicken parm sandwiches with garlic, chowser? When I make chicken parm, I use garlic in the breadcrumb mixture, but this didn't seem to have breadcrumbs at all. It was as if it had been completely slathered in raw garlic after it was cooked. This was definitely and intense raw garlic taste like it had been put through a garlic press because there weren't any pieces that I could detect. I really don't seen any reason to stop back there at all. It's $11 down the drain, and I will truly never go back.
re: roxlet
Chowser? Attached is a photo of a Polpettina chicken parm hero. Chicken, breading, cheese, sauce (no garlic) it is not prepared with garlic. No reason to go back, how about the $11 you wasted. Go get your money I'm telling you it is not normally prepared with garlic. Roxlet I am not trying to be snarky,I swear. If they screwed up your order you deserve a refund whether you ever eat there again or not.
re: chowdom
re: jhopp217
re: wincountrygirl
The way I read Roxlet's first post regarding the excessive garlic I assumed she was referring to actual pieces of garlic in the sandwich or the sandwich having been prepared on garlic bread, neither of which is the case. Perhaps they use garlic in their sauce, I have had it plenty of times. The basil is pronounced, if there is garlic in there it is not. When Roxlet clarified in her next post that she saw no actual garlic in the sauce ( like it had been put through a press) I wondered if maybe they put raw sauce on her sandwich, i'm perplexed. Hope that clears things up. Also the chicken most definitely is breaded. Something strange happened to her order.
re: chowdom
Sorry, chowdom. Chowser is on another board.
Whether or not they make their sauce with our without garlic, this was the single most overwhelmingly garlicky thing that I have ever had the misfortune to eat. I should have photographed it before I tossed it.
It's water under the bridge right now as far as I'm concerned.
re: roxlet
My wife and I went last night...we were headed to Burrata up the street and didn't want to wait for a table, and as well, thought that it was too loud. So, we walked down the street and after a few minute wait were seated at the bar. What an amazing meal! Starting with the friendly bartender, who recommended all hits for us to try. Captain Lawrence on tap - the Imperial IPA and Pilsner. We started with the meatball sampler....very tasty. Then we got a small Neapolitan with onions which was excellent and topped with a healthy bunch of fresh basil. We also got the Brussel Sprout, Bacon and Taleggio special pizza...also amazing. For desert we shared the chocolate cake with the salted caramel. People around us at the bar ordered pastas and the roast chicken and were all raving. Very comfortable atmosphere with a great menu, beer and wine list and a great vibe. We will definitely go back!!
re: toppom
Just going from my memory of the menu (I don't order desserts when out normally), the app, the two pizzas (assuming both were small) and the beers (assuming you both had two), you're looking at approximately an $80 bill before tax and tip. And here lies my problem with Polpettina and a lot of the new pizza places. I'm sorry, but if I'm going out to dinner with one other person, I'm not shelling out $100 for pizza (average pizza at that).
re: jhopp217
here lies my problem with what you are saying. if you don't see it as a value then don't eat there. you obviously don't care for the food but others do! i have not been there more often only because it's a bit crammed for my large family ( i wish they opened closer to rye also) but if toppom loved it then why shoot her experince down? I know everyone is entitled to their own opinions but here you have a excellent local business that is trying to survive and you poo poo it often without much actual patronage. There desserts happen to be stellar so next time don't drink the $6 beers and get a zeppole plate! their small pizzas are not that small also so that $80 meal you describe if your numbers are correct should leave a party with leftovers enough for another lunch!
re: jhopp217
In my mind there's a distinction between the "new pizza places," you refer to, and the old style pizzerias. I appreciate both the old and the new, but they are different experiences.
I don't think two people could spend $100 at a local pizza parlor, even if they wanted to. However, sometimes formica tables, paper napkins and a diet coke just doesn't cut it.
I won't quibble with your opinion about Polpettina's pizza (altho' I loved my Sprout/Taleggio pie). The higher priced places offer a different experience, broader menu, IMHO higher quality ingredients, a nice wine list... but you still get to eat pizza!
To me, it's all good.
re: mrsdebdav
well said debdav. i just hate seeing places as I travel to the other cities that are thriving with great local restos and we can't support the ones here that are trying to serve something other then large plate mass market sysco-crap! the new school may not be for everyone and if you are charging a premium then it better be good. In my 5 times at polpettina the food has always been priceless not expensive!
re: cubanat
Cubanat, you are assuming a lot of things in your comments. I am not trying to bash a local business at all, but CH has become inundated with people writing glowing reviews for reasons other than the food (connections to owners, chefs, etc) and while I like what they did with the place, I have been there twice and had two bad experiences, both with food and service (and got takeout). My biggest issue with the place is the price. Why is it more expensive than Tarry Lodge for pizza?
The main point was that while the review was glowing and wonderful, I like to use CH as a tool and when people forget to mention that they spent $100 for some meatballs, pizza and beer, I find it somewhat irresponsible. As for your comment about the food being priceless, all I have to say is WOW.
I agree with mrsdebdav about the inability to spend that kind of dough in an old school pizzeria, but I disagree with your assessment that there would be plenty of leftovers. From what i've seen a large pie would be an appetizer for two. Maybe it's changed since my last time. I might have to give it a chance not to have a third strike, but I'm not going to base my comment here on support when the product isn't up to par.
re: jhopp217
at the risk of adding my 2 cents, and to try to simplify the issue, let me just state that polpettina is an itialian restaurant with outstanding food, including for take out (which i prefer, because the only down side of the place is that it is too small). I don't know which i like better, the sandwiches, truffle fries, or zeppole, but i'm working on that. polpettina is not a local pizzeria.
re: raider
It's my humble opinion that Westchester residents have accepted that the level of pizza has fallen so far that anything seen as gourmet is embraced. I personally like Pizza. I don't like pita bread with three toppings. That isn;t pizza, but it's very popular in WC. Like I said, I've only had pizza, but heard many mixed things about food.
re: jhopp217
re: jhopp217
jhopp217, I have to agree with you on Polpettina's. My first experience was extremely mediocre, and the food was tasteless. My second experience was having coffee in the cafe with a friend who loves the place. My cappuccino was tepid. Then I decided to have lunch, and my sandwich was inedible. I don't think you're trying to drag anyone down. Caveat emptor is the name of the game. Up the street is Burrata. For $10 they serve a special lunch ($1 less than my horrible sandwich from Polpetina) that consists of an appetizer and a pizza. It was excellent, and I'm having another lunch there tomorrow. Now THERE'S a local restaurant I can get behind.
re: jhopp217
From their latest menu the meal that was described comes to $66. That is assuming the dessert was $10 since it is not listed on the website. NOT $100 and in my opinion PRICELESS.
Breakdown as $9 for meatball sampler (most expensive "app" is $10 truffle fries btw), small pie with 1 topping $15, special tallegio pie $18, 2 of higher end draft beers at $7 each plus $10 for dessert.
To repond to Paris I personnally do not do take out anywhere especially for this menu BUT it is a challenge to eat in since they have so few tables. Well worth it and form your own opinion!
re: cubanat
re: cubanat
re: jhopp217
Hopping back in here...cubanat was right on the nose with respect to the bill: it was $65.50 before the tip. I had 2 beers and my wife had 1. The meatballs were very good, and the 2 pizzas excellent. (We brought most home and I was still stuffed) plus one dessert. OK...is it the best pizza I've ever had?? ...maybe close, for not being a wood-fired oven place. Can I compare it to pizza in Naples, Tuscany or Brooklyn? What can I say? I really enjoyed it.
Now compared to the Tarry Lodge?!??! Please check out:
For ONE pizza, the mixed vegetable appetizer, octopus appetizer and drinks (no dessert)... over $100, with the worse service ever. I live in PC and can walk to the Tarry Lodge and will never go back. I won't even go in to the Market...but that's another story.
Not knocking it: but went to the Colony Grill in Stamford, CT...great bar pizza (and that's it!) 3 pizzas with toppings, 2 Sam Adams drafts (average beer at best) and my wife had a glass of wine....no dessert, salad, etc and it came to $54. Again, great vibe, good bar pizza, but close to what we paid for our meal in Eastchester.
So, would I drive 20 minutes to go back to Polpettina? Yes! Friendly service with great food. Well worth it.
re: toppom
I know Colony isn't in westchester, but they are further proof about the general decline. Back in the 90's the hot oil pizza at Colony was one of the best thin crust pizzas around. I was there about two years ago and it was garbage, Almost sent it back.
And not that I want to beat a dead horse, but if I get a bill of $65.50. After tax and a 20% tip (the least I normally leave) is $84, so I'm missing your point.
re: jhopp217
maybe it's not the pizza and your tastes have changed!! Memories & nostaligia taste better then reality often. Also maybe in the past 2 years colony got the problem fixed and it's great once again-before dismissing it as garbage why not have the decency to make sure before calling it out?
for the record I do like tarry lodge for pizza only and maybe that chopped salami salad BUT I will only eat in the bar as I find the service in the resto not that great, bartenders are much better. BUT for my favorite pies in PC go to JT Straws! NO JOKE good pizza. leave the kids at home though as it's a real bar that happens to serve excellent pie.
re: cubanat
re: cubanat
Colony was great, but when I used to go occasionally, I noticed a slow decline. Then when I went after a few year absence, I noticed a steep decline. It's like any other place. There are times when it gets too popular and product declines. I have a friend who saw a place in Ct. On Diners, Drive-ins and Dives and went. She said it was so awful she had to say something. The waitress apologized and said "since the show aired, we went from about 60 diners a night to 250. We started cutting corners to make it through a shift and then the cook left. " So sometimes it's not nostalgia or memories, but a place goes down hill. Usually nostalgia and memories make us continue to like something that isn't good...rarely is it the other way around. I stand by my recent view on Colony...and saddened
re: jhopp217
A pretty nice review, I think. I was there again yesterday for lunch, and that $10 special is an amazing bargain. Of course, we just had to add in the delicious beets, and end with a couple of coffees, but the price was certainly right. Here's the link to the review:
Polpettina just got approved for additional seating in the cafe next door.
We stopped by last night for an early dinner. In my opinion, this is a great, no frills, affordable neighborhood spot. I love the cozy, casual atmosphere (though you do get blasts of cold air each time the door is opened). We shared the eggplant chips with truffle honey on top, which were lightly fried to a crisp, not too oily, a great starter, and a farmhouse salad with their creative touches (dill, homemade buttermilk dressing, extremely stinky cheese, pickled onions, and popcorn). Then we shared their grandma style pizza-- I love Sicilian style pizza and this is basically Sicilian with not-as-thick dough. Nothing fancy, and I know not everyone likes their pizza, but to me it hits the spot, especially hot out of the oven and Brooklyn style (with fresh basil and pecorino). They still are sourcing excellent gelato-- my salted caramel was perfection-- and their rice pudding brulee is genius-- warm rice pudding topped with a bruleed sugar top.
Special mention needs to be made of their ridiculously good beer list, from which we enjoyed Blue Point's white IPA and Flying Dog's Kujo.
re: i_eat_a_lot_of_ice_cream
re: paris1976
I have eaten at both places and I can say this:
Burrata is superior to me. The food is delicious at both places, and the prices are better at Burrata. The service is much better at Burrata as well. I am glad they are FINALLY getting approval for seating next door at Polpettina---they need somewhere to seat the children who overrun the place.
as per Westchester Mag
Not for the haters :)
Polpettina to open in Larchmont
Breaking news: Kyle Inserra and Mike Abruzese of Eastchester's Polpettina have taken over the Larchmont restaurant formerly known as Espana Wine & Tapas Bar at 147 Larchmont Avenue. This fall, the pair plan to debut a second Polpettina in the new space, which, at 80 seats, is significantly larger than Polpettina's original, 35-seat iteration. Expect the new Polpettina to have a very similar menu, look, and feeling as the original, but there will be some significant changes. Not only is the new space more than twice as large as the original Polpettina, but (finally!) Inserra and Abruzese will be able to offer a full bar with spirits and cocktails. Chef Mike Abruzese will be in charge of both kitchens, which are roughly six miles apart.

The Valdosta Daily Times
A swarm of police officers descended on a hotel employee Thanksgiving evening, after an estimated $120 had been swindled from his employer earlier in the morning, only for the employee to return for a second helping in an evening robbery incident at the same location, according to the Valdosta Police Department.
The first incident occurred Thursday morning when the man requested money from a coworker at the Hampton Inn and Suites on Meeting Place Drive, said Valdosta Police Cmdr. Brian Childress.
"He had been doing maintenance work at the Hampton Inn," said Childress. "Apparently, he went into the hotel and asked for money to do work for the hotel. He requested the money under false pretexts, so that was the case of theft."
The man was gone by the time authorities responded to this 2 a.m. incident, said Childress. But police were ready Thursday evening when the man returned to deprive the business a second time.
"At about 5:13 p.m., we received a second call about the same guy," said Childress. "Witnesses stated that he walked behind the counter, forced his way past two clerks and took cash from a register. So now, the incident becomes a robbery, too."
The man, who had been working at the hotel through a post-prison program, didn't brandish a weapon in either of the Thanksgiving Day incidents, stated Childress.
Gregory Lenard Fields, 49, of Lawrenceville is charged with theft by deception, fraud or swindle, and robbery of a business, Childress said.

In back-to-back years at Alabama, NT Terrence Cody plugged the middle of a run defense that allowed less than 80 yards per game. At 6-3 5/8 and 354 pounds, "Mount" Cody appears to be the perfect fit for a 3-4 defense.
He earned consensus All-America honors in consecutive years, tallying 28 tackles and six tackles for loss with one batted pass and two blocked kicks (one of which preserved a win over Tennessee in the final seconds) for the No. 2 ranked defense and helping the undefeated Crimson Tide win a national championship in his senior season.
PFW recently caught up with Cody to discuss his playing weight, stamina and conditioning, the 3-4 teams interested in him and the hardest he has ever hit another player.
PFW: Have you weighed in recently? How much do you weigh?
PFW: What's your playing weight going to be?
TC: Most teams say between 345 and 350.
PFW: Your weight has fluctuated in your career. What do you tell teams who might be concerned about your stamina and conditioning?
TC: I tell them I now have control over my weight.
PFW: You are one of the best run stoppers in the draft, what are you doing to stay on the field on passing downs?
TC: Get my stamina up and work on my pass rush.
PFW: How are you working on your stamina and pass rush?
TC: Doing drills. Pass-rushing drills, and I do a lot of sprints.
PFW: How often do you train?
TC: Two times a day.
PFW: Where have you been training?
TC: Athletes' Performance Institute in Pensacola.
PFW: Who do you train with?
TC: Mostly people in the upcoming draft. Sam Bradford, Dan LeFevour, and Jermaine Cunningham from Florida.
PFW: Can you describe one of your recent workouts?
TC: Really nothing big. Just a bunch of small drills to prepare me.
PFW: What are your plans for Draft Day?
TC: We're having just a little get together with the family in Virginia.
PFW: How do you like the new format for the NFL draft?
TC: Yeah. The draft is starting at 7 p.m. on a Thursday. It's weird.
PFW: What teams have shown interest in you recently?
TC: Ravens, Chargers, and Denver.
PFW: So, mainly 3-4 teams are looking at you?
TC: Yeah.
PFW: Have you heard from any 4-3 teams?
TC: A couple, but not a lot.
PFW: What team do you want to play for?
TC: It doesn't matter.
PFW: Anything can happen on draft weekend, have you heard when you're expected to be drafted?
TC: No. I'm just going to wait until my name is called. Hopefully, it's the first round.
PFW: I heard in high school you hit a player so hard he was vomiting on the sideline, was this the hardest you've hit someone or have you hit someone harder?
TC: This was the hardest hit I had so far.
PFW: Can you describe the play to me?
TC: I really can't remember much, but I remember hitting him fast and hard.
PFW: Did he play again that game?
TC: Yes. I hit him in the third quarter. He returned at the end of the fourth quarter or maybe it was OT, it was a close game.

It's been around nearly a century. Is it the end for an elementary school in Council Bluffs?
That issue is being discussed Tuesday night.
Teresa Valyer is opposed to it closing.
Valyer says, "It's the glue that holds us all together. It's really what keeps our community a community, and it's instead of having to be part of the whole city, we are our neighborhood."
Superintendent Dr. Martha Bruckner says, "We have to be responsive to our taxpayers that pay for our schools. Our taxpayers do not want us having buildings open if in fact, we can be just as effective and efficient in other schools."
The board plans to take district recommendations along with those from the community and take some time to consider options.

It took a while for the Jacksonville Indians to get in gear Tuesday night in Corsicana, but once they managed to do it was a smooth trip to the winner's circle for Class 4-A's No. 12 ranked outfit.
Corsicana jumped out to 10-0 lead and appeared to be in position to pull off the shocker, but Jacksonville recovered in the second quarter and eventually strolled to a 50-27 win over the Bulldogs.
The Tribe will take a 25-0 overall record, 2-0 in district, into Nacogdoches (12-8, 1-1) Friday night for a 7:30 p.m. game against the Dragons.
The Bulldogs (0-2 in district) led 10-2 after one quarter of play, but some lightning-fast work on the offensive end by reserve Ozzian Clayborne seemed to turn the tide in favor of the Indians as Jacksonville scored on its first three possessions of the final half.
"We sent Clayborne in there and he scored a couple of big baskets and got the and one on on one of those to score five points for us in a matter of seconds when the game was still close and I think that really opened things up for us offensively," Jacksonville head coach Brent Kelley said. "We stress to the kids that when its your turn to get in there you need to be ready to get the job done, and that's exactly what Clayborne did."
Jacksonville outscored Corsicana 19-6 in the second frame to take a 21-16 lead into the dressing room at the break.
The Tribe's pressure defense took over in the second half — Jacksonville held the Bulldogs to just 11 points in the final 16 minutes — as the Tribe held a district rival to under 30 points for the second straight game.
"Corsicana turned the ball over 35 times and we were able to hold them to just 36 shots in the game," Kelley said. "Anytime you can hold an opponent to those type numbers you should be in a position to win the game. Our kids really played their hearts out on defense."
Kedarrius Buckingham led Jacksonville in scoring with 12 points. Buckingham also hauled in eight rebounds.
Dadrian Franklin added 10 points and Londedric Taylor just missed a double-double. He dropped in nine points to compliment his seven boards.
Clayborne finished with five points for the winners.
