Bogota: At least 13 rebels were killed Monday when Colombia's air force bombed a remote FARC encampment near the border with Ecuador, military officials said.
"Coordinated joint operations by the police, air force and army that began early Monday resulted in the deaths of 13 terrorists from the FARC (Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia)," the defense ministry said in a statement.
The attack — ordered after what the ministry said was "intensive intelligence work by the national police" — came on the 100th day in office for Colombia's President Juan Manuel Santos, who has vowed to redouble efforts to bring Latin America's longest-running leftist insurgency to heel.

Best Pizza in Queens ??
- VinSin Dec 16, 2006 01:11 AM
I would like to know what the absolute best Pizza is in Queens ??
Any suggestions ??
Obviously this poster is new to the site, as there are many posts of recent asking about Queens------and in the spirit of chowhound, it is always good to have up to date references--so, here goes for my 2 fav's:
#1---Rosa's Pizza on Fresh Pond Road in Ridgewood--slices and pies, garlic rolls--also pastas--BUT STICK WITH PIZZA's avoid the soups--their lousy..
Chicken Caesar salad pizza, eggplant ricotta pizza, veggie pizza, grandma authentic with onions and tomatoes, etc, --their pizza's great and CHEAP, and HUGE slices!
#2--Nick's Pizza for great brick oven--and great house salad--good cappacino's and decent brownic--in Forest Hills--nice atmosphere--they close fairly early--
Nick's Pizza
108-26 Ascan Ave, Queens, NY 11375
Rosa's Pizza
62-65 Fresh Pond Rd, Queens, NY 11385
I agree about Nick's--I love the ultra-thin crust and the fact that it's absolutely non-greasy.
You can't order slices, though, nor do they deliver.
re: MaspethMaven
69th St is the place I have always heard praise of but have yet to visit..I think it's their Square that's stellar....
re: King of Northern Blvd
There are three different squares at 69th St, classic square (sicilian), grandma, and the sfincione, a lovely little confection of tomatoes, thinsliced onions, and breadcrumbs.
All are awesome.
Rosa's Pizza
55-26 69th St, Queens, NY 11378
re: MaspethMaven
I've heard that the Maspeth Rosa's is good also--but Fresh Pond Rosa's is the one that is open very late, and always packed--it's wonderful--HOWEVER....do not go to the Rosa's on Metropolitan--it is lousy...
How bout Dedona pizza in Woodside? I don't think it's the best in Queens but it's a classic New York slice competently made by the same family for the last 20 or 30 years. Nothing fancy, no high end ingredients just good. It's on 31st Ave and 54th street.
I like several Queens Pizza places (and dislike alot also)...
But if I can only have one slice day-in, day-out, it's probably going to be from D'Aleo's on Jamaica Ave, just west of Woodhaven... 9010 Jamaica Ave...
Nothing fancy, but very authentic straight-up new york slices. I like it better than the places in Howard Beach, honestly, and it beats anything in Forest Hills.
Runner up would probably be Gino's in Howard Beach (15846 Crossbay)... the slices are delicious but be sure to let them cool a bit, otherwise the whole cheese veneer can slide off.
D'Aleo's Pizza
90-10 Jamaica Ave, Queens, NY 11421
Gino's Pizzeria
158-46 Cross Bay Blvd, Queens, NY 11414
re: Chicago Mike
The regular slice at Gino's is good, that's for sure, but to me their best offerings are of the square/grandma variety- particularly the eggplant. The eggplant is sauteed (skin on) without breading and is silky and oozing of olive oil before being put on the slice with pulpy tomatoes, fresh mozzarella and basil. They always seem to have them by the slice, too- last time I was there they had run out but told me I could have a fresh one if I waited 5 minutes for it to come out of the oven (which I did, and it was gooood!).
For a regular cheese slice I go to New Park because the great flaky crust and hot oven char are too good for me to resist. I think it's amazing that these places are blocks away from each other.

re: TongoRad
Tongo...where is Ginos and New Park...Im in Flushing
re: PeteDelfino
Howard Beach
re: abu applesauce
Both places are on Cross Bay Blvd, south of the Belt Parkway. Chicago Mike gave the street address of Gino's, but it's easier to find if you look for the KFC on the corner. New Park is a couple of lights closer to the Belt in a free standing building with a parking lot.
re: TongoRad
Thanks guys...got it
re: Chicago Mike
I agree Gino's in Howard Beach is excellant. They always have extra cheese and the staff is very friendly.
re: stuartlafonda
I second the kudos for Amore. Excellent.
re: tmartinsbox
Hate to respond to a zombie thread, but I just tried the Sicilian at VI Pizza. While they had plentiful cheese and sauce, like I remembered good Queens pizza being as a kid, the crust was too soft. Maybe next time, I gotta ask them to make it well-done...
re: nooyawka
They do a good slice. but what stands out for me is their crushed ice. I haven't had that in a decade.
All right, as long as we're continuing the discussion, I will stand by PEPPINO'S (right under the 61st Street/Woodside station) having the #1 "Grandma Slice"...oniony, burnished edged, beautiful square.
Peppino's Pizza
39-63 61st St, Queens, NY 11377
though i feel the need to repeat DO A SEARCH!! ;-)
i will add that i like...
VIPizza on bell blvd in bayside. consistent.
Amore for a thinner, crispier slice in Whitestone.
Nick's when I want some sit down pizza to share with several ppl.
Singah's (a chain) for a small personal size pizza.
New Park Pizza
Nick's Pizza
108-26 Ascan Ave, Queens, NY 11375
Rizzo's Fine Pizza
30-13 Steinway St, Queens, NY 11103
New Park Pizza
156-71 Cross Bay Blvd, Queens, NY 11414
I love Rosa's and Peppino's. The Rosa's on 69th street is preferable to the other locations, in my opinion.
Dee's, Forest Hills, Metropolitan Ave near Ascan. Unique, tender yet chewy cornmeal coated brick over fired crust, high quality ingredients. Try the Four Seasons.
107-23 Metropolitan Avenue, Queens, NY 11375
Try Il Vesuvio on Bell Blvd...good selection by the slice. Try their Margherita over the normal slice...the fresh mozzarella is worth the extra price.
Also, Marino's on 29th Avenue and 163rd St in Whitestone.
Can someone supply the locations for Nick's and Amore??

re: PeteDelfino
Nick's is on Ascan Ave off of Austin Street in Forest Hills, one block down from big church, and right before the overpass for LIRR.They close kinda on the early side, so plan accordingly.
re: ert97
I second Dani's, even though it has been trashed on this board.
The sweetness of the sauce mixes well with the oregano and the
crisp crust. Plus, I dig the atmosphere and the surprisingly exotic
beer selection. Lots of old photos on the walls. Stuff like Sinatra
staring out from a police lineup.
Rose and Joe's, a bakery in Astoria, near Ditmars under the elevated
N train, serves up an excellent sicilian slice, one of my favorites
in the city.
Dani's House of Pizza
81-28 Lefferts Blvd, Queens, NY 11415
second the singas (I like the one in elmhurst) just because it is unique and, purty damn tasty.
Singas Famous Pizza
82-86 Broadway, Queens, NY 11373
I went to Nick's a couple of weeks ago, and have to say, I had an enjoyeable experience there. The pizza was great (brickoven thin crust), and the service was top-notch. Very clean and cozy. No dount I will return, and according to my pizza-loving 7 year old...it was the BEST pizza she's ever had! lol
If you are driving...good luck. Finding a parking space on Forest Hills, is a pain.
Nick's Pizza
108-26 Ascan Ave, Queens, NY 11375
I think also that A& J has excellent, traditional pizza. Good chewy crust, and excellent sauce
A&J Pizza
71-37 Austin St, Queens, NY 11375
Gino's at Kissena Blvd. across from Queens College and the Gino's on Springfield Blvd. by the LIE is fantastic.
I also think that for a good great plain slice, Lucia's in Flushing on Roosevelt Ave. and Main St. is fantastic. It's been there for over 30 years and still going strong.

Lucia Pizza

I pretty much pay the electric bill at Marino's Supermarket what with how much I spend there (daily shopper), but the adjacent pizza store IMHO is "double yuck" as we like to say here ( shhhh....Lorenzo and the crew are very dear friends...) We live a block away and other than emergency orders for our ChowPup, never patronize it. The dough is really "flat" taste wise and the toppings seem to have been placed on top of day old pizza at times.
I think the pizza at Classica on Francis Lewis near the library is non pareil for these parts- the grandma and the sicilian are fantastic, the sauce on the grandma truly spectacular with small bits of fresh garlic and basil. The tomatoes are sweet and remind me of the San Marzanos you get in Italy. If you are Sicilian, you might have a taste for sfincione- Ed, the owner at CLassica, makes an excellent one with some notice. We always loved Matese's across from Holy Cross for Sicilian, but it's not the same since Pasquale stopped making the pies. In downtown Flushing, I agree with the previous poster: you can't beat a Neapolitan slice at Lucia's on Roosevelt- the best triangle in Flushing and the fact that it's made by an Afghani...only in NY!!!!
A quick search will bring up HEAPS of this stuff..not many of the opinions of the original Chowhounds seem to have changed. with regard to pizza in Queens. Welcome to ChowHound! There is a treasure trove of info here.

The grandma slice at Peppino's is by far the best I've ever had. I haven't tried anything else there because I usually go to Pizza Boy 2. Their slices are OK, but I think they make a great chicken roll and for 3.75 a piece it's a great value.
The Rego Park/Forest Hills area is lacking in good slice joints. Mike's has gone downhill since they changed owners years ago, Ariana's on Austin St. is not worth the money. A &J used to be good, but lately it's not the same. I only go there for their mushroom slices because they use fresh mushrooms.
Capolinea further down Yellowstone is also lacking in a quality slice. There is another place on Harrow, I forgot the name of, but the one time I went there it was pretty good, and it seemed like an old fashioned family run place. it also had pictures of Ray Romano around because he used to frequent there when he was a young lad!

re: doodle
not to mention avellino's serves a really thick crust on their pizza; needless to say, no good.
97-03 64th Ave, Queens, NY 11374
re: bigjeff
you are right about the crust at avellino's pizza, it is too thick.....but the sauce is really good. i think it is an uncooked sauce, which is what pretty much makes a pizza for me. if they had a better crust, i would rank them much higher on my list. amore and new park are my top two joints for a slice.
97-03 64th Ave, Queens, NY 11374
I loooove Nick's pizza. On a good day, it's the BEST pizza in all of NYC, not just Queens (at least, out of all the pizzas I have had in the city). And it's pretty darn good even on the other days.
i agree Lucia's on Roosevelt is pretty darn good for a plain slice, though most pizza snobs would probably snub it. I grew up 1/2 block away and always picked up slices there (or TJ's, which isn't as good for slices). Amore in the grimy shopping center off the Whitestone Expressway has good slices, and Nick's Pizza is simply excellent and definitely worthy of a trip.
a new slice I had recently (while serving jury duty at nearby Queens Civil Court) is Dominick's, on Sutphin Blvd near Hillside Avenue. Their slices were actually not that great, but they were huge and stuff like ziti pizza and lasagna pizza were $2.50 for slices that looked like they came off of 20" pies. I bet this would be great take-home pizza; a few minutes in a toaster oven or even a skillet would make these slices great.

re: StrawbrryF
I just moved into the neighborhood and tried Sac's last night. VERY good pizza... seriously, some of the best I've ever had. It was a little irritating that they charged a little over $5 to put basil on a large pie, but I got over it when I tried a slice. I'll definitely order from them again.
Sac's Place
25-41 Broadway, Queens, NY 11106
re: noah57
Sac's is the BEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LOVE IT!
Nick's Pizza is your best bet for pizza. I went there for dinner last night with my brother and his girlfriend, and the three of us were extremely satisfied.
The staff at Nick's is always friendly and talkative. We frequent Nick's quite often, so when they see us, they'll usually stop by and chat with us for a bit.
We started off our dinner by ordering a house salad. Arugula, watercress, sun-dried tomatoes and sweet peppers topped with a citrus-y vinegar dressing.
For our pizza, we ordered a large, topped with meatballs, sun-dried tomatoes, ricotta and onions. It was so good that even our waiters were impressed and commented that they wanted to try it as well.
For dessert we ordered the tiramisu and cannoli. Both were delicious, but I think the cannoli had slight edge over the tiramisu. Both desserts were also better than the brownie which we usually get. Funny incident happened as we awaited our dessert. A lady at the table next to us was on her way out, but before she left, she kept raving about the brownie and recommended it to us. We agreed that the brownie was good, but we insisted on trying something different. On her way out she waved at us and her glove flew off, and landed right in the middle of our pizza tray. She was plenty embarrassed, and I am certain our laughing did not help matters any.
Overall it was a great dinner. So good in fact that my brother, his girlfriend and I were euphoric afterwards.
The only thing that made it better was our post dinner smoke.
Yummm....the perfect end to any meal.

For sentimental reasons-Alba's in Briarwood on queens blvd. Sicilian or regular. The wonder years.

re: joekarten
You recently went to Gloria's? The Gloria's that begat Amore closed two decades ago. It was on Main street just north of Roosevelt across the street from the Woolworths. What Gloria's did you go to?
re: stuartlafonda
my mistake. i meant to say lucia's. on roosevelt off of main. oops.
re: joekarten
went to amore today at 3pm best triangle slice i have had in a long time. tried matese and classica the other night and was not impressed..actually didnt even try matese, it looked that bad and old. classica was tasteless(tried sicilian and triangle)
read many sugg of amore in here and different posts and tried it today. i just moved to whitestone from new hyde park.
VERY happy with Amore...like the thin crust big time
Amore Pizzeria
30-27 Stratton St, Queens, NY 11354
Pizza Classica
25-71 Francis Lewis Blvd, Queens, NY 11358
re: chefjellynow
I stop @ Amore as I head back from La Guardia to Whitestone once or twice a month.
The constant turnover there makes a fresh slice pretty readily available.
Actually, most times I wait 2-3 minutes for a fresh pie. Their sauce tends to be on the sweet side, yet I really enjoy their slice.
Now, lets talk about Matese. One of the things that has always made their sicilian great is the taste after re-heat. We normally order a pie and then finish off the remaing slices in a day or two.
5 minutes in a toaster oven @ Med-High does the trick. (As I'm sure 3 minutes in a pizza oven would accomplish.)
Go back and ask for an end slice nice and warm.
My fav reg slice is at Graziella,s south on Franny Lew.
Again, heat it up in the oven. Makes the underside nice and crispy!

re: johnk
Wait a minute. Are you saying that Amore is a descendant of Gloria's that used to be on Main St. by the 25/34 bus? That was the best pizza ever. If it is related to Gloria's, is it as good as Gloria's was? And is the shopping center the one behind Whitestone Bowl? I'm in Manhattan now but pass by on the Whitestone Expressway often.
re: ajs42548
i've never been to gloria's, but i have read it regularly here that amore is somehow correlated to that place.
amore is in the shopping center behind that bowling lane. mcdonalds is right at the end of the center, closest to the entrance of the bowling lane. walk down past mcds, amore is sorta smack in the middle of that side of the center, maybe a bit closer to the other edge.
re: ajs42548
I don't want to reignite an oft held battle on this point but there is an alleged Amore, Gloria connection. The current owner of Amore, a 30 'ish heavy set man who has told me on many occasions that his dad and uncle owned and made the pizza at Gloria's. Just last night he pointed out his dad playing with his son behind the counter as the man from Gloria's.
As for the pizza, I think that Amore produces an excellent slice, maybe not worth a trip but at least a detour. Sometimes it is to thin and crisp and cracks and other times the rim crust is to light and "airey" in a strange way. Despite this I find it consistently excellent.
As a youth I ate at Gloria's innumerable times on the way back from Shea and before getting on the Q-16, but it was so long ago and before I paid attention to such things so I could not tell you how Amore compares to Gloria's.
Nick's on Ascan or Dee's on Metropolitan. Neither are traditional red sauce pies. But they're great date places.
I do think Nick's is a nice place, but I have mixed feelings about it. It's amazing that they can get such a nice charred crust from a gas-fired oven and I like the wait-staff and general atmosphere. However, their cheese lands with a thud in my stomach. One guy is responsible for cutting the pizza and adding basil, tossing the salad and preparing the desserts - all with bare hands that he wipes off on a towel. So I avoid salad and basil during flu season.
I've lived in walking range of Peppino's and Pizza Boy II for three years now, and althought I've never done a slice by slice test, Pizza Boy II just gets it done for me. I don't think it's the best pizza in Queens, but if you need a solid slice in Woodside, it's the place to go. Their pasta and subs are also solid.
I can't say what's "the best" 'cause I haven't tried all the pizza in Queens. I live upstate but I visit the ol' neighborhood every year or so.
My sentimental choice is Joe's on Forest Ave. in Ridgewood. I haven't been there in a couple of years but it was good last time I went.
I tried Rosa's on Fresh Pond last year and like it a lot.
Inspired by another, more recent, thread on this very topic, I tried both the sicilian and regular slices at Amore's in Whitestone. Both slices were hot and fresh out of the oven, and both were tasty and better than average in the NYC slice joint tradition. The sicilian layed on the cheese, gooey and hot over the slightly crispy crust. The regular slice was another animal altogether: very thin, with a crispy crust, and an emphasis on the slight sweetness of the tomatoes over the cheese. (Anyone familiar with the slices served at Dani's, in Kew Gardens: Amore's is slightly less sweet, and without the oregano) The slice looked different than most as well. Lots of tiny red tomato dots popped out of the bubbling cheese like a beautiful TV test pattern. Good, old fashioned slice joint. I'll be back.
re: Polecat
Apparently it's the carrots added to the sauce that gives it the sweetness. Amore is one of the best in NYC.
re: NYJewboy
Is New Hyde Park technically in Queens?
I'm so excited that someone mentioned Singha's-- they do great little personal pizzas (I actually enjoy their Hawaiian confection). Primadonna, on Queens Blvd. near 67th Avenue is fairly solid, if a bit greasy, too.
Has anyone been to AJ's on Austin Street? They were a favorite of mine growing up in the area. They make a nice grandma slice, the atmosphere is pleasant and their cannoli's are quite good...

re: lizisinflatbush
Singhas is my absolute favorite pizza in queens. And although it's a chain- the best is the Elmhurst location. Forest hills pizza is just not that great. AJs has gone downhill since the new owners came in.

re: NYJewboy
umberto's was the first pizzeria I ever went to for a proper sit-down meal; this was in elementary school and . . . it was amazing. man! I gotta go back (haven't been back since).
re: bigjeff
Recently had the grandma, and it was as good as ever. Their brick oven pie isn't bad either. You can actually get away with doing the classic NYC fold without everything falling off the pie, which places it above Nick's in my book.
re: Polecat
i like the neoclassic fold which is to eat the slice flat, and once you get near the end, leaving enough of the cheese and sauce part of the slice (say, 2") as wide as the crust, you turn 90 degrees and fold up, sorta like a hot dog bun, with the sauce and cheese to eat with the crust; an open face pizza roll?
I dont know when I want pizza I want a slice -- Still love AJs on Austin Street and family makes good pizza when you get it hot -- although they spend a lot of time on their restautant side so it doesnt take precedence anymore. Call me crazy I like Nicks and Dees but its not real NY pizza -- its gourmet stuff which I like but its not what I crave when I want a slice.
re: NYJewboy
Good to know, as I work in the area. Bell and where?
re: NYJewboy
After reading and lurking here for ages, I actually had to register after following this suggestion.
Born and raised in Bayside, and tried Il Vesuvio for the first time last week with my wife... and we both agreed it was literally the worst pizza we've ever had in NYC.
Wanting to sample what was on offer we figured the basics were the right place to start. One slice of traditional pizza, one sicilian slice, and an eggplant parm hero.
The regular slice tasted exactly like frozen pizza. Poor quality cheese, too sweet, bad texture.
The sicilian crust was cooked on the outside but raw dough on the inside, plagued with the same bad cheese and cloying sweetness.
The hero was better, but not much. The eggplant was done well but the sauce on the hero was bitter. Either slightly burnt, or too much tomato paste in the mix. On the other hand my wife thought the hero was fine.
Just like the above poster mentioned, I would take anything from VIPizza over this place any day. Seems many are recommending the more exotic slices here, but since they can't offer even a basic slice that is palatable, I won't be bothering again.
If you prefer table service which VIPizza doesn't offer, Gino's on Springfield Blvd. off Horace Harding is excellent and consistent, if unadventurous, for standard fare pizza, calzones, pasta and the like... just avoid the salads with fresh tomatoes as they tend to be unripe and sub-par.
And finally if you're open to something other than a traditional NYC slice, there's very tasty coal fired, thin crust pizza at Grimaldi's in Douglaston downstairs by the movie theater.
And yes, it's the same Grimaldi's of Brooklyn renown. (now with a growing list of locations including, Hoboken, Garden City, and numerous points out west)

re: NuMystic
Two years on, and I have to revise my experience here.
My original suspicion that it may have been the gourmet style pizzas that may be garnering the great reviews was definitely on point.
After our poor experience with the traditional NY style slice and plain sicilian I eventually did try a few of their more exotic slices and they were indeed fantastic.
Their "Godfather" which is sicilian style by the slice in the restaurant and also available in round pies to order, is now our favorite pizza in the area by far. Zucchini, mushrooms, onions, sun-dried tomatoes and bread crumb. Savory and texturally delectable thanks to breadcrumb addition on top.
A word of warning though, their delivery times are atrocious. Make sure you order at least a full hour in advance of your desired dining time, because we've never gotten a delivery faster than that. (probably averages 75 min. in our experience)
That said, we find it worth the wait and probably get one of these once a month.

Hey guys, new to the forum. Love all teh posts, and I live in Bayside so I'll be driving to Amore for lunch today, see what all the fuss is about. Anyone ever heard of Frankie's Pizza under the N train on 31st street in Astoria, between 23rd ave. and Ditmars Blvd. ? I have been going there for about 20 years and it's my fav place to get 2 slices and a coke. Very crispy and chewy. An amazing plain triangle slice.
Nick's is good but the service is rotten. They do not know how to seat people. There may be a line and a booth becomes available. They will seat two people there instead of accomodating a larger party. So, very often, customers will wait needlessly. They just don't know how to best use their seating arrangement. Pizza, anywhere, no matter how good, is not worth waiting and hour for. Anyway, for really good pizza, one must travel to Brooklyn.
I'm with all of the Amore fans!!!! By far, hands down, the BEST pizza I have ever had!!! And it IS TRUE........the owner is the next generation from the owners of the infamous Gloria's Pizza owners. I'm fortunate enough to work in the same neighborhood as Amore, but it is DEFINITELY WORTH A SPECIAL TRIP!!! And like the others have mentioned, they do so much business that their pizza is ALWAYS fresh.....no matter when I go. Umberto's in New Hyde Park is also excellent!! But there is no comparison to Amore! There's no ambience, but when the pizza is as mesmerizing as Amore pizza, who cares about ambience!!!
re: AndreaG
I wouldn't agree about the "no ambience" thing. Amore's just has a different kind of ambience; kind of like eating in a bowling alley.
I think that Bella Via is comparable to Nick's. Bella Via is in LIC and is a nice restaurant too. Just Pies. Definitely in the top 5 for Queens
I can't believe non of ya'll haven't experienced Pizza Sam's. Sammy Jnr inherited the place from his pops who has since passed. It oozes flavor from the photos on the wall to the friendly staff......then there's the pizza. Thin, but not too thin crust, sauce made w/real fresh tomatoes, and cheese to die for. I recommend a basic pepp. and m/room and a chicken Sicilian. (Great pasta dishes too) It has recently changed hands but it's still Sam's. Northern bw 89th and 90th. You will not be disappointed.
Elmhurst Pizza on Broadway and just past Whitney Ave...same style as Singah's just better i believe. since moving to Elmhurst i havent ordered pizza from a chain restaurant, what a release
re: xtrasharp1
I second VIPS. Their buffalo chicken pizza is out of this world!!!
re: CCSPRINGS
Sal's is good, but can it be called 'best' of anything? In my opinion, on a scale of 10, it might score a 6 or 7. Slightly or above average. It ain't no 8.
Average crust from middling dough. Commercial cheese with little taste and no interesting texture. He does make a decent sauce though; tangy and a bit sweet.
Nick's is hands down my favorite. But if you want a great pizza-by-the-slice, the place is Lillian Pizzeria. Besides being featured in Everybody Loves Raymond ;) it is honestly a good slice. I think it is underrated. Original owner still makes the pizza, it's location is off the beaten path and there is no delivery. So, it's not very accessible...
re: yongjoo
Not familiar with Lillian's Pizza. Where is it?
re: CCSPRINGS
Here it is:
Lillian Pizzeria
96-01 69th Ave, Queens, NY 11375
re: roxlet
I grew up aroung the corner and never heard of this place. When was it there? For whoel pies, Nicks, Nicks, Nicks. Coal, wood, who cares. The end justifieds the means.
There is no need to venture off Franny Lou if you want the best pizza in Queens. Your toughest decision is between Matese and Graziella who both make the best Sicillian around and arguably just as good or better leftover. VI Pizza on Bell is pretty good too.
33-25 Francis Lewis Blvd, Queens, NY 11358
43-02 Bell Blvd, Queens, NY 11361
Matese Pizzeria
26-15 Francis Lewis Blvd, Queens, NY 11358
re: DocMumbles
Second that. My husband goes out of his way for the grandma at Graziella, says it's better than he's had anywhere in a long long time.
I agree with EVERYONE that is saying Nick's in Forest Hills. It's the best pizza by far!
Parking is the only problem in the Austin Street area but circling a few times is well worth it.

We're a bit annoyed. When loading up Eidos' new Commandos: Strike Force website, of all the national flags denoting the various localised versions of the site available, the Union Jack appeared last. Bah. It reminded us of the Olympic Games really, that great time when British TV sports correspondents proudly announce that a Brit athlete has come eighth in a race but purposefully turning a blind eye to the fact that there were only actually eight people in the race to being with.
Anyway, we digress a little. Yes, Eidos has launched the official internet home for Strike Force, the FPS spin-off from Pyro's strategy-puzzle series. Set in war-torn Europe, Commandos Strike Force finds players conducting missions behind enemy lines in Norway, France and Russia. The strike force of the title consists of the Green Beret, Sniper and Spy from Pyro Studio's strategy games and players will be able to take control of each character and utilise their particular strengths to successfully complete objectives.
There's all sorts on the site, ranging from media to weapons info, details on the characters and more. Check it all out if you're the type of person who likes going commando.

MPCSD really doesn't have the right to crow about their high test scores for white and Asian students if other groups don't have an even playing field, so kudos to Ms. Devoto for a very worthwhile effort. Unfortunately, though, this particular program is targeted to minority groups, while other underperforming students who would could also benefit -- such as those with learning differences or disabilities -- are not included. Hillview should find a way to widen this approach not only to include 6th graders, but to include any and all students who are not performing to grade-level norms.

One word means plenty to Rock Bridge
For the second straight time, the Rock Bridge girls basketball team finished its regular season at 22-2. The Bruins, ranked No. 4 in the state, duplicated the mark with a 44-35 win against Helias on Thursday. However, to Bruins coach Jill Nagel, this season was much different than the previous one.
Ranked foes just sneaking by Tigers
The three Big 12 Conference wins by the Missouri women's basketball team aren't really anything to brag about when compared with the four-game losing streaks that separate them.
Big men maul Missouri with high scoring, rebounding

Perry a beaming success
Dressed in a furry white robe adorned with pink and red hearts and a red bow tied around her ponytail, sophomore Missouri gymnast Adrianne Perry came to practice on Wednesday in the Valentine's Day spirit.
Unfamiliar way to win

Unusual location for softball
University Field, home of the Missouri softball team, looked more like a lonely ice skating rink Wednesday afternoon. The stands were empty, the air was cold enough to bite through your coat, and a layer of ice and snow covered the hidden playing surface. The frosty February weather, however, was not enough to keep the Tigers from playing their home opener against Missouri-Kansas City.

The Contract With America is a story of political perseverance. Its real antecedents were in the formation of the Conservative Opportunity Society in 1983. That group, brought together by Newt Gingrich, had as its mission the transformation of the House Republican Conference and ultimately taking control of the House.
In the months leading up to the 1994 Contract with America, then Republican House Whip Newt Gingrich used the pollster he trusted most to develop the content – himself. Yes, the Gingrich team conducted a handful of focus groups but the bulk of the public opinion input that drove the Contract's 10 major points [...]

Allegheny County Bar Association Fellow: 2003-present
• Allegheny County Bar Foundation,
Since 1985, Tony has devoted his practice to the defense of insurance companies (and their insureds), hospitals, physicians, manufacturers and extended care facilities in civil litigation. After a successful 25-year career with prominent Pittsburgh insurance defense firm Dickie McCamey and Chilcote, Tony joined Marshall Dennehey in early 2010 . As a member of the Health Care Department, he focuses his practice on the defense of physicians, hospitals and extended care facilities, while continuing his representation of insurance carriers and their insureds, and automobile and RV manufacturers and dealers.Throughout his career, Tony has defended hundreds of medical liability claims and more than 1,000 civil claims, including product liability, breach of warranty, defamation, bad faith and traditional personal injury defense, in addition to his work in medical liability defense. He takes pride in being a trial lawyer, including his ability to try cases where there is probable liability, but an unreasonable settlement demand.Tony's first jury trial was in 1987 and he has been steadily trying cases since that time. He has handled more than 50 jury trials, approximately 10 non-jury trials, close to 100 Common Pleas and Federal District Court arbitrations and approximately 15 UM/UIM arbitrations. While the vast majority of Tony's trials have resulted in defense verdicts (or favorable plaintiff's verdicts), perhaps his most significant victory started out as a disappointing loss. In Griffin v. UPMC-Braddock, the plaintiff suffered a severe fracture/dislocation of her shoulder while recuperating from abdominal surgery for Crohn's disease. The cause of the injury was a mystery, as it occurred in the middle of the night and plaintiff had no recollection. Plaintiff contended a hospital employee caused the injury by forcibly restraining her during a period of agitation. The defense expert testified that the injury was a classic seizure-induced fracture/dislocation. Plaintiff's expert was somewhat equivocal in his expert reports, citing forcible restraint as the cause but conceding that seizure was a possibility. Tony aggressively cross-examined plaintiff's expert on the issue of reasonable medical certainty and the expert testified that he held his opinion with 51 percent certainty. The trial court allowed the case to go to the jury, denying defendant's motion for directed verdict, and the jury returned a verdict just over $2.2M. On appeal, the Superior Court agreed with defendant that plaintiff's expert did not testify with reasonable medical certainty, overturning the verdict and granting judgment n.o.v. in favor of the defendant hospital.In recognition of his work as a trial lawyer, Tony was inducted into the prestigious Academy of Trial Lawyers of Allegheny County in 2003, his first year of nomination. The Academy of Trial Lawyers consists of the best 125 plaintiff lawyers and the best 125 defense lawyers out of more than 8,000 lawyers in Allegheny County.Tony received his Bachelor of Science in Finance from Penn State in 1978 . He was a scholarship member of the football team at Penn State, earning letters in 1976 and 1977 . Tony graduated from the Duquesne University School of Law - Night Division in 1985 . He was a part of the winning team and was runner-up Best Advocate at the Gourley Cup Trial Moot Court competition in 1985 .Tony resides in Mount Lebanon with his wife Dana, a Penn State grad who was at the time one of a handful of female Labor Studies majors at Penn State. Their son, Carl, is a Yale graduate and their daughters, Alex and Gabrielle, are also Penn State graduates.Outside of work, Tony enjoys time with his family. He has been a trustee of the Parents Athletic Council of Mount Lebanon since 2008 .

Interview: Social media is not the antithesis of traditional media
The excitement over the potential of social media is similar to kids wanting to be the next Messi. There are very few Messi's out there. The possibility exists, but very few people make it through the clutter and crowd.
August 14, 2012 11:15 by Muhammad Aldalou
Year after year, multinational corporations and SMEs continue to direct their focus onto their social media presence. From using paid 'tweets' to hiring social media 'experts' to gage and increase their activity, businesses are pinning more hopes on its ability to create an 'awareness explosion' for their brand names. One cannot deny the role that technology and social platforms have played on major changes in marketing methods and what with the countless monthly reports suggesting a huge growth of user activity in the region, companies are eager to jump into the whirlpool. However, the cynical side of the spectrum paints social media's tools as being quick but lacking in accuracy.
On one hand, we have seen how social media, especially in the Middle East, can be a fantastically effective tool for putting out PR fires and blunders and on the other, successful businesses take advantage of the free tools because they understand that it doesn't end at the sale. Still, many genuinely question its effectiveness in the marketing and advertising industry.
"That is perhaps the wrong question to ask," says Mohamed ElZubeir, Managing Director at Mediastow, a Middle East media monitoring agency. "We don't ask how effective a tool a hammer is in carpentry. It's one of many tools and it depends on the job. Social media is just like any other tool. It has the potential to reach millions at once but also more often than not, doesn't. Just because you're in the square shouting your lungs out doesn't mean anyone is paying attention. The point is, there is an art to engagement, but it isn't a science."
That's true, it isn't a science. There is no precise rule dictating how you should go about expanding your social name but we cannot shy away from the fact that many companies are frustrated at the speed of its development. Even with many companies hiring social media specialists in hopes that they will, quickly enough, fly high above their competitors, many receive less than satisfying results. The downside of the hype is that the anticipation of social media's "ocean of potential" has created unrealistic expectations and turned off patience for organic growth.
"The excitement over the potential of social media is similar to kids wanting to be the next Messi. There are very few Messi's out there. The possibility exists, but very few people make it through the clutter and crowd. That is not to say that you can't achieve goals, but it would be wise to carefully examine expectations."
"Having a presence on social media platforms largely depends on the brand in question. Some brands are more visible than others. Some categories are of more interest to people than others. When was the last time you tried to look up Dow Chemical? Mind you, they do have a FB page with 43k likes. Compare that with consumer brands and the picture becomes clearer."
"Advertising (whether in the traditional sense or in paid/promoted placements on social networks) is part of the marketing mix and is as effective as the campaign is."

Fluvanna Review
18 November 2014
Fox hunting in Fluvanna
First things first: the fox is just fine. In fact, the fox (or, sometimes, coyote) is always fine when Deep Run Hunt Club holds its fox hunts. Their goal is to give their hounds, their horses, and themselves the incomparable thrill of the chase; their quarry, the wily fox, always escapes in the end.
The horses stamped their hooves and shook their heads, bridles jingling. The hounds milled about, intently watching the huntsman, eager for his signal to begin the chase. Riders finely dressed in buff breeches, knee-high glossy riding boots, and fitted jackets chatted as they waited for the hunt to commence. Sunnyside Farm, near Wilmington, was host to more than 40 fox hunters on Nov. 13; the forests, fields, and Rivanna River bottom echoed with the baying of hounds and thunder of horses' hooves once again.
To the casual observer, little has changed since the days when George Washington and Thomas Jefferson rode to the hounds. A painting of the gathered hunters waiting on the crest of a hill on this beautiful Central Virginia autumn afternoon could be framed and hung next to a hunt print of 200 years ago, and one would be hard pressed to guess which century either painting came from. The hunters, the horses, and the hounds form an iconic image familiar to almost any Virginian.
