Detailed Description:
Idiopathic membranous nephropathy is a main reason for nephropathy. Since it can get spontaneous remission, in KDIGO, it is recommend that initial therapy should be started only in patients with nephrotic syndrome and when at least the following condition is met:urinary protein excretion persistently exceeds 4g/d and remains at over 50% of the baseline value,and does not show progressive and antiproteinuric therapy during an observation period of at least 6 months. But many retrospective researches reported that using steroids and immunosuppressive agents were better than waiting for spontaneous remission. There were few prospective, randomized, controlled research on whether it is better that begin to use steroids and immunosuppressive agent early without waiting for 6 months. In our study,we evaluate the validity and security of steroids plus cyclosporin therapy in idiopathic membranous nephropathy. This will be a prospective, randomized, controlled, multicenter study. Patients in treatment group will receive oral methylprednisolone 0.4mg/kg/d and 3.5~5mg/kg/d cyclosporin for 6 months. Patients in control group will waiting for spontaneous remission for 6 months,if there were no spontaneous remissions, patients in control group will receive oral methylprednisolone 0.4mg/kg/d and 3.5~5mg/kg/d cyclosporin for 6 months. After followed-up for 6 months the curative and side effect of steroid plus cyclosporin therapy in the early stage of idiopathic membranous nephropathy will be evaluated.

45-47 Commonwealth Avenue
45-47 Commonwealth
41-43-45-47 Commonwealth were built for lumber merchant, real estate investor, and banker Elijah C. Drew. He and his wife, Hannah (Haines) Drew, made 41 Commonwealth their home and sold the other three houses.
45 Commonwealth
Elmer Townsend died in April of 1871. Wealthy Ann Townsend continued to live at 45 Commonwealth in 1876.
By 1877, it was the home of ice dealer Charles Otis Gage and his wife, Charlotte Lapham (Reed) Gage. Their primary residence was in Arlington. They continued to live at 45 Commonwealth in 1878.
By late 1878, it was the home of banker Joseph Norton Fiske and his wife, Charlotte (Morse) Fiske. In 1877, they had lived at 17 Arlington Street. In July of 1879, they purchased and moved to 121 Commonwealth.
By 1880, 45 Commonwealth was the home of Charles G. Patterson, a broker, and his wife, Frances Elizabeth (Kirby) Patterson. They probably leased the house from George B. Clapp, who is shown as the owner on the 1883 and 1888 Bromley maps.
The Pattersons continued to live there in 1889.
The house was not listed in the 1892 and 1894 Blue Books.
By 1895, it was the home of attorney Samuel Wells and his wife, Catherine Boott (Gannett) Wells. He died in October of 1903. Catherine Wells continued to live at 45 Commonwealth until 1908.
In February of 1908, cotton broker Ellerton Lodge Dorr and his wife, Mary Louisa (Stanwood) Dorr, purchased 45 Commonwealth from Catherine Wells.
He died in March of 1913. Mary Dorr continued to live at 45 Commonwealth with her daughters, Mary and Elise Dorr, in 1920. Mrs. Dorr is shown as the owner on the 1917 Bromley map.
Mrs. Dorr probably died in 1920 or 1921, and by 1922, her daughters, Mary and Elise Dorr, had purchased and moved to 235 Marlborough Street.
45 Commonwealth was not listed in the 1922 and 1923 Blue Books.
By 1923, 45 Commonwealth had been purchased by John Valentine Dittemore, who converted it into a multiple dwelling. He was a retired Indianapolis meat packing executive who had come to Boston in about 1908 to work in the Christian Science Church; he also owned and developed real estate.
In May of 1923, John Valentine filed an affidavit stating that he would limit the occupancy to three dwelling units with kitchens. He was subsequently cited for having more than three families living in the house, and in 1924 he was granted permission by the Board of Appeal to convert the house into a three-family dwelling and two lodging units (without kitchens).
In 1924, while he was remodeling 45 Commonwealth, John Dittemore and his wife, Edith (Bingham) Dittemore, lived at 68 Commonwealth, which they had previously converted into apartments in about 1922. By 1925, they were living at the Copley Plaza Hotel, and by 1927 they had moved to an apartment at 45 Commonwealth, where they continued to live in 1928. He continued to be shown as the owner on the 1928 Bromley map.
By 1929, they had moved to 138 Marlborough Street and it appears that they were divorced at about that time. By 1933, Edith Dittemore was once again living in one of the apartments at 45 Commonwealth. She continued to live there in 1934, but no longer was listed there in the 1935 Blue Book.
The Cape Ann Savings Bank is shown as the owner of 45 Commonwealth on the 1938 Bromley map.
By 1954, 45 Commonwealth was owned (or possibly just managed) by the Paradise Realty Company, which converted the building from five to nine apartments.
47 Commonwealth
The house was not listed in the 1877 Blue Book.
By 1879, it was the home of merchant Joseph Peabody and his wife, Anna Perkins (Pingree) Peabody. Anna P. Peabody is shown as the owner on the 1883, 1888, and 1908 Bromley maps.
Joseph Peabody probably died in 1887 or 1888.
Anna Peabody continued to live at 47 Commonwealth until her death in March of 1911. In her will, she left the house in trust for the benefit of her niece, Mrs. Anna W. Phillips of Salem, the wife of Stephen W. Phillips.
The house was not listed in the 1913 and 1915 Blue Books, and is shown as owned by the Heirs of Anna P. Peabody on the 1917 Bromley map.
By 1917, it was leased from the Peabody Estate by Dr. John Thornton Bullard, a retired physician, and his wife, Emily Morgan (Rotch) Bullard. In 1915, they had lived at 288 Beacon Street.
The Bullards continued to live at 47 Commonwealth in 1924, but by 1925 had moved to New Bedford, where he had maintained his medical practices until his retirement in about 1911.
47 Commonwealth was not listed in the 1927-1937 Blue Books. The Heirs of Anna P. Peabody continued to be shown as the owners on the 1928 and 1938 Bromley maps.
The house was vacant in April of 1941, when an abutter filed a complaint with the Building Department about the condition of the rear yard and entrance.
By 1942, it was owned by William Karmazine, trustee of the Esdith Realty Trust. In August of 1942, he converted the house into lodging house.
45-47 Commonwealth
In May of 1963, he purchased 45 Commonwealth. He subsequently built a fifth-floor penthouse on that building (increasing the number of apartments to ten) and, by March of 1964, had cut through doors between 45 and 47 Commonwealth on the third, fourth, and fifth floors.
On February 20, 1971, 47 Commonwealth was extensively damaged by a fire that affected the second, third, fourth, and fifth floors and the roof. The damage was repaired, and on September 7, 1974, the building was again damaged by a smaller fire in the apartment on the third floor front of the building.45-47 Commonwealth remained an apartment building in 2007.

LAS VEGAS (AP) - Floyd Mayweather is scheduled to face WBA welterweight champion Marcos Maidana on May 3 in a bout to unify their 147-pound titles.
WBC welterweight champion Mayweather (45-0, 26 KOs) is coming off year in which he had victories over Robert Guerrero and Canelo Alvarez. Maidana (35-3, 31 KOs), of Margarita, Argentina, defeated Adrien Broner on Dec. 14, 2013 by unanimous decision.
"Marcos Maidana's last performance immediately brought him to my attention," Mayweather said in a statement. "He is an extremely skilled fighter who brings knockout danger to the ring. I think this is a great fight for me and he deserves the opportunity to see if he can do what 45 others have tried to do before him - beat me."

WASHINGTON (AP) - U.S. national team forward Charlie Davies has
been moved out of intensive care as he recovers from serious injuries after a car accident.
The U.S. Soccer Federation says Davis is now able to receive visitors. He will have surgery early next week to repair a broken left elbow and may require operations to repair facial fractures.
Davies is listed in fair condition at Washington Hospital Center Medstar.
Davies broke several bones, including two in his right leg, and sustained a lacerated bladder from the accident, which occurred last week when the U.S. team was in Washington for a World Cup qualifying game.
Davies is expected to need six to 12 months to recover,
essentially ruling him out for the World Cup, which begins in South
Africa in June.

Windows 7 Broken x64
BSOD + Does Not Boot, Does Not Repair, Does Not Restore
On a rather good home computer, about a week ago, I came home after leaving the computer on all day to find that it was sitting at a black screen, non-responsive. I waited for a little bit then hard-booted it so that I could start doing whatever I wanted to do that particular day. However, as the computer was booting Windows 7 it hit a BSOD. Since then, Windows 7 has not worked at all on this computer. When it starts to boot, it immediately skips from "Starting Windows" to an automatic repair function, which always says that it has failed to automatically repair.
Things that I tried already:
- Windows's automatic repair (It does not succeed in doing anything, I told it to send a report to Microsoft about 5 times)
- Booting to the Install Disk that installed windows on this computer, and activating it's Automatic Repair feature. That also did not work.
- Using System Restore from the Install Disk. The first time it said "System restore was unable to complete successfully, your files have not been changed..." and something about an error. Other attempts to do System Restore, on other Restore Points (it tells me that I have 6 of them) mostly crashed immediately, saying "rstrui.exe - Application Error" and some technical stuff.
- "Boot Using Last Good Configuration" - This just went to "Starting Windows", played half of the little graphic, then gave a BSOD.
- "sfc /scannow" command in offline mode or whatever, run from Windows 7 Install Disk. I got the impression it couldn't fix anything.
The computer has been broken for several days, and I would like to fix it. It has 650ish GB of installed programs and personal data on its hard drive, which I managed to back up to an external drive using linux. As far as I can tell (i.e. judging by the fact that an old wubi ubuntu installation made on a whim half a year ago boots fine), there's really nothing wrong with this computer's hardware -- simply, Windows has gone haywire.
Some of the programs on this computer's hard drive, like Autodesk Inventor, take hours to install because of security keys and rights and such. I understand that one option for me is to format the hard drive and re-install Windows 7 using the disk, but I would like to avoid doing so if at all possible.
So, I came here to see if someone could help. Any help is greatly appreciated!
Edit: I saw the BSOD Posting Instructions, but am not quite sure how to follow them in Ubuntu. I was left reckoning that I couldn't download and run an EXE in an environment that doesn't run EXEs. I'll update here if I get that figured out.

text: UAW President: Sen. Bob Corker 'Intimidated' Volkswagen Workers to Reject Union Print article Send a Tip by Michael Patrick Leahy 19 Feb 2014 post a comment On Monday, UAW President Bob King, embittered at his union's 712 to 626 loss in Friday's election among workers at Volkswagen's plant in Chattanooga, Tennessee, blamed Tennessee Republican politicians for the stinging defeat. King told MSNBC's Ed Schultz, "Sen. [Bob] Corker [R-TN] entered into the fray just to intimidate workers." King told the Times Free Press, "The union is still evaluating its legal options." Those options could include filing legal challenges with the National Labor Relations Board. By law, the NLRB is required to certify the outcome of the vote within seven days of Friday's election. The NLRB, which is now controlled by Obama administration appointees, has made several controversial anti-business rulings over the past several years, including a decision to sue Boeing for locating a new plant in South Carolina. The NLRB dropped that suit, which it had initiated with union support, in December 2011, after the union and Boeing struck a deal that raised wages for workers. Joseph Farelli, an attorney who specializes in labor law and a partner at the New York City based firm of Pitta & Giblin, told Breitbart News on Tuesday he did not think a UAW challenge to the NLRB certification of the vote would succeed. Farelli told Breitbart News, "I don't think the NLRB is willing to break new ground and state the conduct of a third party is sufficient to void the outcome of the election." The Chattanooga Times Free Press reported that the UAW's King stated: "Corker's intimidation and (Gov. Bill) Haslam and the others threatening to take away incentives for the company (if workers joined the union), that really hurt workers and hurt us. I think that had a huge impact (on the election)." On February 12, the first day of the three days of balloting, "Corker said a vote against the UAW would guarantee that Volkswagen would assemble a new seven-passenger crossover vehicle in Chattanooga," according to Bloomberg News. King claimed that prior to Corker's statement, "[o]bviously, we [the UAW] had a majority." Other UAW union leaders joined the chorus claiming intimidation. "Unfortunately, politically motivated third parties threatened the economic future of this facility and the opportunity for workers to create a successful operating model that that would grow jobs in Tennessee," said UAW Region 8 Director Gary Casteel. "The UAW Chattanooga is here to stay," said Mike Herron, a UAW official at the General Motors plant in Spring Hill, Tennessee. Herron added, "I pray that the Volkswagen workers in Chattanooga will remain vigilant and eventually get the workplace democracy that many of them desire and free from the threats, intimidation and misinformation of their senator." Leaders of other national unions weighed in as well. Richard Trumka, head of the powerful AFL-CIO, said, "[t]he closeness of the results and the courage and tenacity of union supporters prove that this election is a minor setback, and not a permanent defeat." Trumka claimed, "[t]he ferocity of the anti-union forces only reinforces the fact that there is a powerful new form of organizing emerging." King added that "attorneys are evaluating whether any rules were broken by Corker and other state Republicans when they said that Volkswagen was more likely to expand and Tennessee would grant the German auto maker more incentives if the workers rejected UAW representation." Labor attorney Farelli told Breitbart News, "If you are going to challenge the outcome, they supposedly had an agreement with Volkswagen in which neither side would bad mouth the other. There's only a couple of grounds they could use to challenge it." "I think they have an uphill battle because normally there are 'laboratory conditions' neither the union nor the employer can make incendiary comments. Volkswagen didn't make those type comments. The union," Farelli said, "would have to show the employer made those comments violating those 'laboratory conditions.' " "The law doesn't cover outside groups," Farelli noted. "They would have to show Volkswagen was coordinating efforts with the outside groups." Farelli explained the standard that the NLRB should use to evaluate any potential legal challenge to the NLRB's certification of the vote. "If Corker said 'if you vote against the union, Volkswagen will be able to build another car here,' if an employer or employer's agent said that you might have a case," he said. "But Bob Corker is not an agent of the employer." If legal experts like Joseph Farelli are correct and the rule of law still stands in the United States, the NLRB would dismiss any likely UAW challenge to the election certification. It remains unclear, however, what, if any, legal challenges the UAW may make to Friday's vote and how the NLRB will rule on those challenges, if they are made.

Texas struggles to produce big plays
No-contact practices, soft season opener encourage QB Ash to hold ball too long
AUSTIN, Texas -- David Ash waited too long.
The Texas quarterback knows it. His receivers know it. His coaches know it. And anyone who saw Ash hang on and hitch the ball before letting it fly Saturday on his two deep pass attempts knows it, too.
"There was a few plays where I was like, man, I really held onto that ball a long time," Ash said. "I've got to get rid of that."
Sooner rather than later, because Texas has been waiting for a season plus for the big plays to arrive.
The Longhorns had 28 passes of 20 yards or more in 2011. They scored 22 times on drives that featured a pass completion of 20 yards or more. Given that Texas was eighth in scoring offense in 2011, and the Big 12 is putting up pinball scores this year, it would stand to reason that Texas needs more big plays to lead to scores.
Texas didn't open up much against Wyoming. There were five long downfield throws called, according to Texas co-offensive coordinator Bryan Harsin. On one of those, Ash checked out because of a look the defense was giving. He went for three of them. He failed to complete any of them.
"In a perfect world we would like to have two shot plays per quarter where you can move the ball downfield," Harsin said.
To do that everything has to be in sync. That was far from the case against Wyoming. Oh, the receivers were there. Jaxon Shipley was free and clear in the third quarter. So too was Mike Davis on the same play. But, as Ash said, he waited. Later Davis was free again. Ash waited until Davis had outrun his arm. The Longhorns did pick up a pass interference call, but that was little consolation for what looked like a sure touchdown.
Brown knows that it is going to take touchdowns to win, especially in the Big 12, where the top Week 1 point totals were 84 (Oklahoma State), 69 (West Virginia) and 59 (Baylor).
Ash and the coaches, while discouraged the big plays were not there in the passing game, do see the issue as fixable. First and foremost on the fix-it list is getting Ash to get rid of the ball sooner.
Brown surmised the issue might be that he became complacent in practice because of the lack of a pass rush.
"When you don't hit the quarterback in practice, sometimes they have a tendency in ballgames to hold the ball a little bit too long," he said.
Instead, Ash could wait for the perfect moment to unfurl his arm without fear of it being ripped off by a defensive end. So the translation was, against a Wyoming team that did not have a solid pass rush, Ash held the ball forever.
Another factor is that Ash has been brainwashed into managing the game. When he didn't turn over the ball against Cal in the Holiday Bowl he was lauded for his efforts. Brown and Harsin have reinforced ad nauseam that the way to keep the starting job and to keep Texas winning was to not throw picks.
Naturally, Ash did not want to put the ball in harm's way. But in college football, especially in a conference that averaged .83 points per minute of football played in Week 1, there has to be some risk-reward in the passing game. Ash seems to understand that.
"For me, that's the main thing is trusting my reads, trusting my feet and getting rid of the ball," he said.
"He knows what needs to happen," Harsin said. "He can tell you exactly what happened and why, and what he can do better."

Texas and Ash might be better able to accomplish that against New Mexico. Despite rolling up 66 points against Southern and allowing just 21, it is a far inferior opponent than Wyoming. Even with the opening win, the Lobos have only four victories since 2009. That's the lowest total of any FBS team.
And Daje Johnson, the mercurial receiver on whom so many of Texas' explosive play hopes have been pinned, is back in good graces after his suspension. And the Longhorns are a week older. That might not seem like much, but remember: The lifespan of a Big 12 participant is just 48 weeks for a four-year player, 52 if he makes it to a bowl game every year. So one week, especially a week in which there is new film to digest on each team, is important.
For those reasons, and more than likely a few more, Harsin is confident Ash will succeed in the downfield passing game where he has not before.
"He gets it," Harsin said.
And those around Texas might get to quit playing the waiting game.

Cheese Curds in DC
I am a Chicago transplant who has been fine with getting curds on my returns to the Windy City. I would now like to find some cheese curds in the DC (NOVA, MD, even WV) area. Anyone have ideas where they might be found?
re: repete
There's an Amish market in Germantown that sells great cheese curds. I think it's called the Lancaster Country Dutch Market but I could be wrong. It's in the same shopping center as Germantown Cycles if that helps you find it on Google.
There is a vendor at the Arlington Farmers Market that has cheese curds. The market is at Court House and is open on Saturday mornings.
For some reason I feel like one of the cheese stands at the Dupont Circle Farmer's Market on Sunday might have cheese curds.
I'm not too familar with the product but I feel like I saw a sign for it. Unfortunatly I can't remember which stand had it but there are only about 3 tables offering cheese and dairy products so it should be easy to find.
re: Elyssa
Yikes, my bad ... saw the midwest roots and was thinking of deep fried curds. I'll second the Takoma Park market, but they're still not like some of the good Wisc.-Minn. curds with that trademark "scrunch.".
re: repete
The scrunch can only be had if the curds are very fresh (less than 24 hours?), from what they say. I've never had them fresh so can't confirm that from my own experience. In any case, I suspect it will be hard to find them so fresh outside of Wisconsin, but the farmer's market idea sounds worth a shot. Wegmans also has them
As to fried ones, I like the A&W fried ones myself (my favorite fast food in fact), but have never had them in Wisconsin so probably don't know what I'm missing. I do know they are better than the ones I have had at Culvers, which is a Wisconsin-based chain.
Thanks everyone for the great recs. I went to the Dupont Farmers Market a few weeks back and they said the guy that sold them is no longer there. I am going to the Market in Arlington near Court House tomorrow. Then Maryland Amish Markets the next weekend. I will let everyone know how the curds I find stand up to midwestern ones.
I may even have to go get some fried ones at A&W!

Bravotv.com: Is there anything else you want to say about the Quickfire?
GS: Both Sally and Matt's dishes were great, but Sally's texture was better. She really thought about the play between texture and temperature and ingredients. Although it was a mango pudding, it wasn't too sweet, and she did this great brittle on top -- all the flavors worked really well together. It didn't feel like she was stretching at all. It felt like a very organic dish, which was the point of what we wanted them to do with Jordan there, to prove that you can use traditionally savory ingredients in delicious desserts.
Bravotv.com: Alright onto the Elimination Challenge, what was it like having Adam in the kitchen with you guys?
GS: More than for any other guest judge or celebrity or chef that we've ever had on the show, we were all giddy the couple days leading up to the episode knowing Adam was coming. Even more so than when we've had movie stars or other great musicians on the show. I guess because we felt that the Beastie Boys music, which was the inspiration for the challenge, and Ad-Rock himself just wanted to have a really good time, and it was all about just having fun and being silly. The Beastie Boys have been making outstanding, trail-blazing music for over 25 years. They've really changed the face of hip-hop and rap. But, in a way, they've always done it with a wink and a laugh, and you can hear it in their lyrics. You just know you're going to have a good time when they're around. And we did.
He told us that when he, MCA and Mike D are recording an album, they sit around and talk about food all the time, which is why there are so many lyrics about food in their songs. They're all really into food. They all you love eating, love going out. They've travelled all over the world touring for the last 25 years, and he is a fan of Top Chef and of good food in general. It felt like that day someone just turned our kitchen upside down. Between the Quickfire challenge with Jordan and then AdRock, we really challenge and shook up our chefs. But I do think they had a lot of fun with it, even though this was the most ridiculous challenge we've ever done. Adam was game to do everything. He was just having such a good time.
Bravotv.com: When you saw the ingredients were you guys nervous about actually eating them?
We were. I wish we could've shown our viewers the pantry more closely. Our production teammade the most amazing Beastie Boys display. They included over 100 different items of food originally mentioned in Beastie Boys songs, and it was just extraordinary. But we had no idea if the chefs were going to be able to pull off what we were asking of them. Of course, some of them did and some of them didn't.

Economic Education improves public knowledge about the Federal Reserve System, monetary policy implementation, and promoting financial stability through the Museum and programs for K-16 students and educators, and the community.
Author: Menno Middeldorp
Central banks worldwide have become more transparent. An important reason is that democratic societies expect more openness from public institutions. Policymakers also see transparency as a way to improve the predictability of monetary policy, thereby lowering interest rate volatility and contributing to economic stability. Most empirical studies support this view. However, there are three reasons why more research is needed. First, some (mostly theoretical) work suggests that transparency has an adverse effect on predictability. Second, empirical studies have mostly focused on average predictability before and after specific reforms in a small set of advanced economies. Third, less is known about the effect on interest rate volatility. To extend the literature, I use the Dincer and Eichengreen (2007) transparency index for twenty-four economies of varying income and examine the impact of transparency on both predictability and market volatility. I find that higher transparency improves the accuracy of interest rate forecasts for three months ahead and reduces rate volatility.

Public radio show to feature UMW faculty Saturday
The University of Mary Washington's Corey Hewson, coach of the women's soccer team and athletics instructor, and Holly Schiffrin, associate professor of psychology, will appear on the public radio show "With Good Reason" Saturday, Jan. 11, according to a university release.
During the program, "Start the Year Off Right," Hewson will share advice for new runners and those training for a half-marathon, based on his own experience and his course at UMW on half-marathon training.
Also in the show, Schiffrin will encourage listeners to cultivate strong relationships with family and friends, rather than focusing on the effects of a less than ideal economy.
"With Good Reason" is a program of the Virginia Foundation for the Humanities. Find a complete list of air times and links to corresponding radio stations here.

There are no words to express how grateful I am to have Bruce as my dentist. It is a relationship that has continued for more decades than I care to admit and am pleased to say that he's everything I could hope for in a dentist. He is skilled, gentle, creative, generous and kind. I could go on but I would only embarass him. All this fine work is backed up by the wonderful dental team he has. They are truly the best and I feel very fortunate to be one of their patients.

New stomping ground - Mount Laurel. Gimme some eats!
I have a new area to explore since the boyf just moved down to Mount Laurel. The town seems nice, and I am hoping that the restaurant options are just as promising.
I'd love recommendations on all types of places, and if anyone knows of a great (but cheap enough for a casual weeknight dinner) sushi place in ML or the surrounding area, let me know! We definitely want to try a lot of places and explore the area. And if there's a pizzeria that is your fav, let me in on it :] (and I'll be sure to give you my post-taste opinion, since I am particular with my pizza!)
I work in Mt Laurel, but live in Princeton. I'm sorry that I don't have any suggestions in Mt Laurel...I have not found them myself! I anxious await other responses because I'd love some tips on good food. Seems few and far between in south Jersey, or perhaps I just need some guidance as well!
For pizza, Angelo's is the best I've found. Truely delicious NJ pizza!
Angelo's Pizza
878 Union Mill Rd, Mount Laurel, NJ 08054
As a fellow relocated person...I live in Cherry Hill, but lived in Mount Laurel for like three minutes...grew up in NNJ.
1. for greasy, awesome pizza, go to Francesca's where 38 and Ark road intersect (think that's a ShopRite shopping center now...); for glam pizza go to Passariello's on Main Street in Moorestown.
2. for Chinese, go to China Cafe also right where 38 and Ark intersect...it's in the shopping center NEXT to where Francesca's is...you'll see a Burger King, Hollywood Tans, Hair Cuttery etc.
3. for bagels, you will want to punch all of the workers in the face due to incompetence, but if you speak slowly, you will get the best bagel in the area (closest to north Jersey I can find...) Go to Victoria's where 38 and Larchmont intersect...in the shopping center where a Saxby's is supposedly opening, but I honestly don't think it ever will. Don't be tempted to go to Gaetanos for a cheese steak. They suck, and their pizza is even worse. If you must have a cheese steak...take the trip to Montesini's on 38W in Maple Shade. Really good pizza there too...but I'm not sure what part of Mt. Laurel you are in.
4. For sushi, go to Akira 2 (original Akira on Larchmont smells like a sewer...) on Main Street in Moorestown. BYO and fresh fish.
5. for "dive" bar with outside seating, pitchers, and pub grub, go to Ott's in Delran..take Hartford and it will be on your right. I avoid Prospector's. And Jay's Elbow Room...(this really is a dive bar, has a small outdoor deck, but hey...sometimes those are the best places)...but for lunch, you can get a sandwich for a literally $1.00. And like, serious sandwiches...I had a steak sandwich once and two pints and it was $5.00.
6. Again, not sure where in Mt. Laurel you are, but if you're closer to Cherry Hill...on Church Road, in between 73 and 41, there is a pizza place called Forno...good pizza, decent food, and beer for $1.75 a pint.
7. Best craft beer joint so far has been The Pour House in Westmont.
8. Best BYO Italian place seems to be Barone's (Acme shopping center on Centerton, across the street from Wegman's)IMHO. Or Tutti Toscani in Cherry Hill...sometimes they will give you limoncello. For lunch you can get legit sandwiches and salads for like, nothing at both establishments.
Use Wegman's to your full advantage - cooking in will definitely become part of your repertoire because dining options definitely become limited if you don't feel like going over the bridge. However you can usually get cheaper fish and meat at Acme.
I leave the hardcore gourmet recommendations to a few of the other chaps that REALLY know dining...I have a husband that literally would be happy with a mutton chop, so we don't really frequent La Campagne or places like that...
re: The Megadon
excellent post mega, thank you!
Simple, and small place for breakfast or lunch
Heart to Heart Moorestown
Right off of Main Street
Passairello's Yummy!
Agree Akira 2 Very Good - Had the Rock and Roll - Roll
Shrimp Tempura Pepper Tuna and King Crab
You have lots of good food places to explore in that area - Cherry Hill - Haddonfield - Collingswood and Phila is so close! Let us know what you discover.
For pizza, a bit out of the way, but Riviera in Vincentown has excellent thin crust pizza, like a N Jersey pie, which is hard to find in S. Jersey.
Modo Milano on Route 38 in Mt. Holly is another Lamberti restaurant. It's actually very nice and modern, (little out of place for the area), inside, and the food is pretty good. Added advantage is that you can get a drink there.
Mikado in Maple Shade or Medford would be two good choices for Japanese. I understand there is another Japanese place in the Acme Shopping Center at the corner of Lenola Rd and Kings Hwy (Maple Shade), that is supposed to be pretty good, but sorry, can't remember the name of it.
Going east from Mt. Laurel, your choices will be few and far between. Dad's on 38 in Mt. Holly is a dive that serves good burgers and wings. Prospectors I am not crazy about, but I've been there a bunch of times strictly out of necessity (my sister lives near there and has two small children). Prospectors does have an outside patio and they have a full menu. I'd stick with the burgers there, myself.
In Medford, Teds on Main is excellent for Cajun/Creole.
Since you're in the area now, the 2 best places for sushi are Fuji in Haddonfield; or Sagami in Collingswood. Both are BYOB.
I think you will find most of the better quality restaurants west of Mt. Laurel. There are some nice choices in Collingswood, as well.
For pizza, I really like Sal's Pizzeria in Marlton-right off of 73 (near the circle) but I might be a bit biased since I have been going there for practically my whole life- their white pizza with broccoli and tomatoes is my favorite.
There's also Donkey's Place on Tomlinson Rd. in Medford. It's a bit out there in the woods, but they have really good cheese steaks that they put on kaiser rolls ( a weird choice of roll, but still really good) and I love their fries w/ seasoning. Plus, it's right next to Leo's Famous Yum Yum! (added bonus for dessert)
And there's Spaghetti House located in the shopping center off of 73 with the DSW and Champps- I love their Sicilian style sauce and the family that owns it is really nice!
(NOTE: There is already an identical thread to this one) Scotto's is very good, as is Angelo's, but I would recommend Soprano's on Church Rd. No sugar in the sauce, just excellent pizza! Little Beef's is very good too, if you can tolerate the bad service. Definitely avoid Pizzitullo's on Church St.; it's Chucky Cheese Pizza. Also avoid Taconelli's; it is NOT the same as the Philly location. And finally, if you don't mind a little drive, try Riveria in Medford (Stokes Rd.), the Tabernacle location is too far for pizza. Riveria has been in business longer than any of the others I've mentioned, and Medford is their original location.
re: rusfirth3
I live in Mount Laurel too...I want to agree with a couple of the stay-aways in the post above---Pizzitullo's is pretty bad, and Taconelli's is overrated. I don't think Little Beef's pizza is that great but their sandwiches are good. For pizza and pretty much anything on their menu, I like Sal and Joe's on Kings Highway in Maple Shade, but there were a lot of other good pizza places mentioned in this thread too. Angelo's on Union Mill Road has great calzones and stromboli and good pizza. For a bit finer dining, Collingswood has several excellent restaurants, but such as Blackbird and Sapori, among others. There are a lot of good places within a 20-minute drive (depending where you are in Mount Laurel of course).
re: rusfirth3
rusfirth3 - I did a search for a mount laurel thread before I posted, but maybe I missed the one you mentioned. Can you post the link?
re: cbean
I believe resfirth3 was referring to this old 2005 posting about the best pizza places in Mt. Laurel. It really was not similar to your posting about good food in general in the Mt. Laurel area. Wel, at least now you know all about the pizza places in the area!
re: mschow
thank you mschow :]
I think I'm in a similar position. I moved to Mount Laurel a few months ago and have been looking for good take out places and good hang outs to meet people (in their 20-30's) since I don't know anyone. I'm very close to prospectors, but the food isnt so great there. PJ's is the other pub like place I know of, the food is alittle better but not by much. As for Pizza, I am also fairly particular. I like Bertucci's brick oven crust, but the sauce and toppings are kinda bland. Taconelli's has a similar style but they burned my last pizza. I've tried out many of the chinese places but I havent found any that are any good. I'd say the best I've tried are King's Palace and Lotus. China Cafe is ok although I found their rice to taste a little funny in my last order. I've asked people at work for recc, but they pretty much just tell me about chain's like fridays so maybe there isnt too much nearby.
re: lmbgm
Imbgm, have you tried Joe's Peking Duck House in Marlton? it's a stone's throw away from King's Palace, and IMO, a lot better! and it's a bit further away, but on 70 in Cherry Hill, there's King of Pizza, near Taylor's- my dad swears by their pizza, but I haven't been there in a while...but I do remember I loved their Italian sausage pizza.
cbean, for what it's worth: there is a farmers market on Saturday in Moorestown. A farmer that I've been buying my organic eggs directly from also sells there, and tells me there is a good selection and some different vendors this year. There is also a nice farmers market in Collingswood on Sat that is worth checking out. You can have lunch afterwards (it's all walkable) right in Collingswood. That would be a good way to give you some of the lay of the land. You might also want to invest (or the bf), in a Costco membership as there is one right in the same shopping center as the Wegmans in Mt. Laurel/Moorestown.
re: mschow
ah THANK YOU for the farmers market info! It's something that I have been trying to do much more often, but there's not many up near me. I try to make some meals for him to last him a few days whenever I visit, and anything that can help me avoid the oh so frequest trips to shoprite is fantastic. I plan on checking them out, thanks!
re: cbean
there are some good farm stands in Moorestown/Mt. Laurel that I frequent often during the summer. There are 3 on Lenola Rd in Moorestown, and a few closer to Mt. Laurel. It's a pretty area, so get out and take a ride and you'll run into them. And, there are some bigger growers out past Medford, if you feel like investigating out that way some day. Conte's is one farm market with a very big variety and they also sell some baked goods. They are in Tabernacle and they also have pick your own, if you're into that sort of thing (not for me!). Do check out the Dutch Wagon market in Medford for the Amish food. Excellent rotisserie chicken and ribs, fresh meats, etc. It's only open on Fri and Sat. Be sure to try one of the soft pretzels, they are way too yummy! I also really like Georgetti's in Cinnaminson (just a short ride) for fresh pasta, sauces
and soups. Produce Junction is also a must stop for very inexpensive produce, flowers and plants. Just be ready to order when you get up to the front of the line, and do it fast or people will get PO'd!! Be very careful in the parking lots of the PJ; for some reason they all have very scary parking lots and bad drivers :-))
Here's my list:
Pizza: Angelo's on Larchmont (and Hainesport - Mt. Laurel rd) is our favorite. They do good sandwiches, but their pastas are just so-so.
Chinese: The sesame chicken at China Cafe (NW corner of 38 and Ark rd) is worth a special trip. Not much else there is, though. I have not yet found consitently good Chinese around here.
Japanese: We have taking a real liking to Wasabi (NE corner of 38 and Ark rd) for sushi. It's not spectacular, but is consistently good, with a talented sushi chef and attentive waitstaff
Burgers: I am not a big fan of Prospectors (SE corner of 38 and Ark), but they do make a fine burger (and have a full bar). You can always trust PJ Whelihan's (one is on Lenola and 38) for a good burger and brew as well.
Mexican: There's a new Mexican place in Mt Laurel, but I will not share my review as I went there within its opening week. Let's just say I need to go back to see if they finally got it right. Ok...ok...it's the macho taco...but i wouldn't send you there.
BBQ: Finally...some decent BBQ in the area: Bassett's in Moorestown (in the KMart shopping center across from the Moorestown Mall). I am a huge BBQ afficianado and have been continually dissapointed in the BBQ around here, but Bassett's is actually pretty good. I hope to post a full review after trying a few more of their offerrings.
Sit-down Italian: Someone already mentioned Barone's off of Centerton (I think) in the ACME shopping center behind Wegman's. This place makes consistently good Italian and is a BYOB. Some of their dishes are deep-fried and come out of the kitchen heavy on the grease, so be careful what you order.
Seafood: You need to leave Mt. Laurel for good seafood. With the death of Emerald Fish, the best place is around is Ritz Seafood in the Ritz Center down in Voorhees. If you have a craving for crab cakes, you can get them at the Bobby Chez takeout in the Wegman's shopping center in Mt. Laurel. If you go, get a few coconut shrimp too...they're awfully good.
If you are looking for good Indian, Mexican or French, you will have to leave Mt. Laurel as well. There is consistent good talk about Blackbird and the Tortilla Press in Collingswood, and A Little Cafe and Coriander in Voorhees. These four are some of my faves.
re: Etcetera
I'm guessing you haven't tried Monsoon -- a fairly new Indian place in Mt Laurel on Dearborn Circle (not to be confused with the now defunct Monsoon that was on Rt 73). It's shiny and modern with IMHO the best Indian food in the area. I especially like their breads which you will need for sopping up the great sauces.
re: johnpm
Thanks for posting!
This place looks great and they have Butter Chicken!!!
DH and I have lived in Cherry Hill for 3+ years now. After reading this list, I had two thoughts: all these new restaurants to try.... and who's organizing our SJ CHOW dinner??
Anyway, a few more recommendations and votes:
Pizza: I second the motion for Pietro's (thick-cut pepperoni and fresh mozzarella), also Luigi's Pizza Fresca on Old Marlton Pike, within spitting distance of Pietro's. (on/off of Rt 70 on Cherry Hill side of the 70-73 circle)
Chinese: Joe's Peking Duck House in Marlton behind Champps on Rt 73. Chez Elena Wu in Voorhees (near the Ritz movie theater) was good but I was there once, a while ago.
Mexican: Tortilla Press in Collingswood is worth the drive, any time (esp. for brunch!). For something very low-brow, El Azteca on Rt 73 at Ramblewood Parkway. BYO. Also try Los Amigos on Rt 73 in Berlin.
Italian: Tre Famiglia in Haddonfield or Nunzio's in Collingswood. Pasta Pomodoro in Voorhees (Eagle Plaza) for a bit lower-key atmosphere.
Another place to look for restaurant info is SJ Hot Chefs - a bunch of independent restaurants (and yes, several of the ones I listed above...). www.sjhotchefs.com - Farm to Fork Week is later this month, Restaurant Week is in October, etc. We've been pretty happy with our explorations of their member restaurants.
re: truman
Yeah, I'm in Cherry Hill too and would love to meet up with local SJ Chowhounders! You hit on a lot of local favorites, Truman.
re: IndigoOnTheGo
another great place is toscana in cherry hill/marlton border on rt 70. they also have outside seating in the summer. and it is a byob. can be very pleasant

DALLAS (AP) - Police have identified a suspect in the attack of a 20-year-old UCLA tennis player, who is in a coma after somebody punched him following a country music concert in Dallas.
Police said an 18-year-old Plano man is wanted on a charge of aggravated assault, a second-degree felony.
Jeffrey "Jake" Fleming, of Newport Beach, Calif., was attending a Rascal Flatts concert June 13 when an unknown man hit him. Police say Fleming and his friends may have argued with another group during the concert.
His family says he was sucker-punched as he was about to catch a taxi after the concert. The blow knocked Fleming to the ground, where his head hit the parking lot concrete, causing his brain to bleed and swell.
Fleming's father told The Dallas Morning News that his son
remained in critical condition.
