Dentist - Carol Stream
141 Hiawatha Drive, Carol Stream, IL 60188
When it comes to your oral healthcare, we strive to provide state-of-the-art care along with education to both our patients and community. One way we do this is by taking a moment to answer some of the questions we are most often asked about a certain topic. And one topic that almost always ignites questions is the subject of lumps and bumps in the mouth.
Help! I just found a small lump in my mouth — what should I do?
Not to alarm you, but your first priority is to contact us as soon as possible to schedule an appointment so that we can review it. Most often, we will know what it is by taking a history, knowing how long it's been there and what it looks like. Depending on what we find, we may want to take a biopsy so that we can determine exactly what it is and how we need to treat it.
What is involved in having a biopsy performed?
A biopsy is a normal and routine procedure that is used to definitively diagnose and confirm exactly what the abnormal lump, bump or other tissue is. It is typically performed with local anesthesia so that a small tissue sample can be removed without any pain for examination under a microscope. Depending on the size of the wound, it may require two to three sutures (stitches), leaving a flat and flush surface that heals in a few days to a week. The procedure usually lasts between 10 and 15 minutes with the lab results processed within a few days.
Does this mean I have cancer?
No, the chances are slim that you actually have cancer. However any change or sore in the mouth that does not heal in a week or two should be evaluated by a dentist and if necessary biopsied. If it is pre-cancerous and removed, it could save your life. The most important fact you need to remember is that no one can tell for sure what the abnormal tissue growth is until an expert in oral pathology ("patho" – disease; "ology" – study of) examines it under a microscope. While it is human nature to be concerned, until you have the facts, you are suffering needlessly.
To learn more about this topic, continue reading the Dear Doctor magazine article "Common Lumps and Bumps In The Mouth." Or you can contact us today to schedule an appointment to discuss your specific questions so that we can put your mind at ease.
Not long ago, Jane Fonda gave a British interviewer a clue as to how she manages to look so young at her advanced age. During the 2011 Cannes Film Festival, the septuagenarian actress and fitness guru said to a journalist from the London-based Daily Mail, "See these teeth? They cost $55,000. It was teeth or a new car — and I opted for the teeth."
We think she made the right choice — though she might have overpaid just a tad. Most people don't have that kind of cash to spend on either a car or new teeth. But luckily, you can get either for a lot less — particularly the teeth!
The truth is, at a reasonable cost, cosmetic dentistry really can make you look a lot younger while giving your self-esteem a tremendous boost. It's an investment in both your emotional and oral health as we will never implement a smile makeover without first making sure we've addressed any underlying dental disease. Best of all, it doesn't have to cost anywhere near what you'd pay for the latest-model Jaguar, the price tag of Fonda's smile notwithstanding. Here is a list of the more common cosmetic dental techniques used to enhance a person's smile:
If you'd like more information on cosmetic dentistry, please contact us or schedule an appointment. To learn more, please read the Dear Doctor magazine articles, "Beautiful Smiles by Design" and "The impact of a Smile Makeover."
The reason for extracting a tooth may be all too obvious — the tooth is too decayed or damaged to attempt saving. The reason for extracting a wisdom tooth, on the other hand, may not be so apparent: from the perspective of pain or reduced function, you may not notice a thing. Our recommendation to remove a wisdom tooth is based primarily on what may be occurring out of view below the gum line and its potential threat to adjacent teeth.
Teeth grow and develop below the gum line in the jaw, and then push their way through the gums as they appear in the mouth (eruption). After a normal eruption, the enamel-covered crown is visible above the gum line; the remaining tooth root (about two-thirds of the tooth's length) resides below the gum line. Because wisdom teeth, or third molars, erupt rather late between ages 17 and 25, they may lack the room to erupt properly due to crowding from other teeth that have already erupted. This can cause the wisdom tooth not to erupt fully through the gums, leaving the crown trapped below the gum line, a condition known as impaction. For the tooth, impaction increases the chances of infection, cyst formation and gum disease around it.
An impacted wisdom tooth can also cause problems for the adjacent teeth as well. The impacted tooth may begin to press against the roots of other teeth; the resulting pressure can damage the other roots, increasing the risk for disease or future tooth loss. A person may not even know they have this problem since there's often little to no noticeable pain or symptoms.
It may seem counterintuitive, but the best time to remove a wisdom tooth is when it's not causing immediate problems. There will be, however, signs found during examination (particularly x-rays or CT scan) that future problems are in the making. By extracting an impacted wisdom tooth at the appropriate time, we can avoid more serious problems in the future and improve oral health.
If you would like more information on wisdom teeth and your oral health, please contact us or schedule an appointment for a consultation. You can also learn more about this topic by reading the Dear Doctor magazine article "Removing Wisdom Teeth."

Highlights included the RSSH Senior and Intermediate boys continued domination of Shropshire (and Midlands) cross country running. Individually, Messrs Mallett, Blake and Fraser produced a clean sweep (1,2,3) at Senior level. The Junior team were second (by two points!) and the girls third.
At the Wycliffe Head, a senior boys VIII were the fastest crew down the course all day, with encouraging performances from all other crews, particularly a girls 'A' quad and all J14, J15 and J16 boys octos.
The most notable performance for the school pairs at the Northern Fives Championships was that of Nick Pearce and Samson Yick who won the Festival Competition; a very impressive result against a number of good, experienced opponents. Hannah Pritchard and Rosie Parr won the Festival C plate competition, the final game ending 12-11 in a thrilling finish on Sunday afternoon. Jack Fox and James Harris lost narrowly 1-2, in the final of their plate.
The junior rugby teams demolished their King Henry VIII School, Coventry opposition, scoring a total of 142 points to 19 in reply. In squash both the senior teams defeated Cheltenham College, and the girls' netball 1st VII finished a creditable third at the Malvern St. James tournament.
What a weekend! A delight to see so many Salopian boys and girls achieving much success, but most importantly representing their School in a variety of disciplines and enjoying themselves.

One of the most awaited PC and Mac gaming sequel this year is Diablo 3. Today, this game has been officially launched, and a number of PC and Mac users have already purchased / pre-purchased this game. With its new raft of role playing game experiences, this game has gained a huge number of users on its launch day.
On its first day, it has reached around the world, and has gained a lot of reactions from the players. Below are some of users' reactions to Diablo 3's launching.
Annoyed Gamer is Annoyed
Annoyed and frustrated players are complaining that they can't successfully login since servers are too overcrowded. This led them to create a conference in Twitter under the hashtag of #Error37. It began trending on twitter, gaining mix complaints, critical reviews, and even hilariouscomments. In this regard, Blizzard has already acknowledged this problem on their Support page. The forum was pretty much flooded with concerns regarding difficulties in logging into the Battle.net. This however has already been warned to gamers that there might be delays on its launch day. Blizzard reads, "Due to high concurrency the login servers are currently at full capacity. This may cause delays in the login process, account pages and web services. We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause and thank you for your patience while this is being resolved."
A Really Long Wait
Then there's always someone who'll rant about waiting for so long only to find out that they'll get this error from time to time.
Error Rage
Not only World of Warcraft has its very own rage guy, but alsoi in Diablo 3. This guy has obviously been so frenzy whenever he gets this error37 from Diablo 3. Watch the video and tell us how you can relate in the comment section below!

Temple of Zeus
DIMENSIONS 19" x 24" MEDIUM archival pigment print
Limited edition of 50, 2015
Accompanied by certificate of authenticity signed and numbered by the artist
In his drawing of an Ancient greek temple, Timothy Hull manipulates classical architecture with optical illusion, a clever stroke by the artist who employs a pastiche of found imagery and limited palette to create paintings inspired by the ruin and artifact of Greco-Roman antiquity. Referring to his recent exhibition as a Critic's Pick, Artforum wrote that Hull "treats a mixed bag of cultural symbols" like urns, vases, glyphs, epitaphs, and found graffiti sourced from the Ancient Agora of Athens and Pompeii archaeological site "with both humor and reverence."
Framing option is black or white painted wood, 7/8" wide flat face and 7/8" deep, with UV acrylic glass.

Having problems with your Canon Rebel XT / EOS 350D Digital Camera ?
Sandisk CF card is in canon rebel xti and eject button is stuck down and cf card will not come out. How to release it?
Answers :
Hello, and thanks for using FixYa.
Try pushing down the card a bit, see if the eject button sticks up.
If the eject button did not stick up now and when you inserted the card originally, then most likely the card has been inserted upside down. This may have also caused damange to the card reader on the camera or possibly the pins. And the camera might be unable to read cards in the future.
In that case it would be difficult to remove, you need something to grab it from the edge and pull out.
If the eject button sticked out originally, but the card still appears stuck. See if you can push the button further down, if this doesn't help, you still need to obtain something to grab the card from its edges to get it out. Avoid the top and the bottom of the card.
It is okay to pull out the card, the eject button only pushes the card from inside the slot, it doesn't hold on it.

Alex As Well by Alyssa Brugman – Book Review
by Stevie Schafer
Alex is fourteen, vibrant, and a kick-arse narrator. Brugman has done a great job crafting Alex's voice. Alex is constantly breaking down the fourth wall, inviting the readers into her world. Although breaking the fourth wall can be risky, in Brugman's hands it helps to bring the readers into Alex's head.
Brugman intersperses Alex's narrative with blog posts from her mother on a forum called 'motherhoodshared.com'. The combination of internet confession combined with the comments underneath the posts punctuates Alex's narrative with outside perspectives which are at times painfully misinformed and 'normal'.
Alex also has two voices. One identifies as male (who is in the background, but fades as the story progresses) and one who identifies as female. I found this device a little prosaic, but when read generously it can help illustrate the way our binary gender obsession has carved up Alex's psyche: 'For me it's a very grey area. Greyitty grey. We are the Earl and Countess of Grey, Alex and I.' Alex resides in a grey area, breaking the binary at the same time as the fractured voices try to conform to the binary with phrases like 'Earl and Countess'.
This book's triumphant successes are showing just how obsessed we are at neatly dividing the world into male and female, how people constantly conflate sex and gender, and the pressure to conform. Alex makes a choice based on what feels right for her in a binary obsessed world and ultimately places a big question mark over the legitimacy of the binary. Alex As Well is a great book to help us think about gender.
Stories with intersex protagonists should be more common than they are. Such stories not only give a place to intersex individuals within literature, but also help to make intersex individuals more visible, especially to would-be allies.
Alex As Well is Alyssa Brugman's twelfth novel and first novel published with Text Publishing, who have also developed related teaching notes.
For more information about intersex issues for both intersex individuals and allies, visit The Organisation Intersex International.
5/5 stars.
This book review was written by Stevie Schafer.
One Comment
Fantastic review. I've got this bookmarked, because I need to read this book. I completely agree that texts featuring intersex characters should be more visible, and hell, more plentiful. We are not compartmentalized as neatly as most would like. And we shouldn't be. You also make a great point that literature like this would bring in new allies.
Thanks for such a thoughtful review.

Power lunch
Categories: News and previews
For one weekend each summer, some of the brightest minds in food gather from across the world at Oxford University for the Oxford Symposium on Food and Cookery. For the last few years, Borough Market has hosted a lunch at the Symposium, showcasing the Market's wonderful array of produce, in fitting with the year's theme—this year, food and power. Ellie Costigan reflects

Food and power. My first response to that notion was that this would be all about supermarkets and food corporations—but perhaps that's my innate cynicism talking. Adjust the sentence slightly to 'the power of food', though, and a different picture is painted altogether. Love. Comfort. Community. Togetherness. Nourishment.
The abstract nature of food and power as the overarching topic of this year's Oxford Food Symposium—an international meeting of some of the brightest minds in food—evoked a similarly broad response from its speakers. We heard talks on the role of food in diplomatic negotiations; food as a political tool in communist Russia; why women rarely reach the rank of sushi master in Japan. We heard how Laurie Nolan, who refers to herself as "a mom", and a group of campaigners in New York challenged the US Food and Drug Administration body over its registering of native tilefish on the 'high mercury levels list'—and won. Cannibalism popped up at one point. Less surprisingly, issues surrounding class, gender and race came up frequently—themes which reverberated through both the plethora of talks, and in the food.
Each meal at the Oxford Symposium is devised and cooked by a different guest chef, in response to the year's theme. This year, this included regional fare from south-east Mexico, courtesy of Sandra Miano of Restaurante El Mural de los Poblanos: a carnival of flavours, presented with obvious care and dedication. Saturday's lunch celebrated the healing power of cooking together, made with the assistance of four women—Munira Mahmud, Fatima Odonkor, Halima Al-Huthaifi and Lillian Olwa—whose community was affected by the Grenfell Tower fire in 2017. Through communal cooking, these women found comfort and renewed resilience in the face of disaster, eventually prompting them to set up the Hubb (meaning 'love' in Arabic) Community Kitchen.
With her hands
The evening meal, an expression of "the power and versatility of frugal Greek cooking", was also highly personal. Put together by cookery school owner and long-time Symposiast Aglaia Kremezi and chef Michael Costa of Zaytinya, it managed to evoke a sense of Greek familial conviviality, via full-flavoured slow roast lamb and a delicious array of (title-defying) accoutrements.
Sunday's lunch, as has become tradition, was provided by Borough Market—masterminded by David Matchett, Symposium trustee and the Market's head of food policy development—and entitled 'With her hands' in deference to the female growers, cooks and stallholders behind the produce that made up the meal. Think next level ploughman's: onion and caraway rye and sourdoughs from Karaway Bakery; Italian Alpine honey provided by From Field and Flower; an array of Neal's Yard Dairy cheeses; and Rosebud Preserves' preserves, all of which were chosen both as a way of championing the skills of the women who made them, and for their complementary textures and flavours. Like a very good "English mezze", as David described it.
Common ground
The lunch was introduced by four young chefs (who were, this year, coincidentally all female—fittingly, David laughed, not wanting to "mansplain"): another element of Borough's regular involvement with the Symposium. Each year, two to four burgeoning chefs are offered a grant to attend the Symposium and cook alongside the guest chef for Friday's dinner. This year, the selected four—who'd flown in from Brazil, Turkey, Ireland and the USA, respectively—also came to Borough Market beforehand to help choose the ingredients for Sunday's lunch, talking to traders about the produce and gleaning information to inform their presentation to 250-plus Symposiasts: a daunting task for anyone, but handled by each like Borough natives.
These meals are grand affairs, executed with the help of Tim Kelsey (probably one of the calmest chefs in the biz—truly, he's remarkable) and his St Catz team, hosted in the main hall at several communal banqueting tables. It's as Hogwarts as you'd imagine something called the Oxford Symposium on Food and Cookery hosted at Oxford University to be. These meals are a demonstration of the power of food in themselves, harking back to those (albeit slightly cheesy) sentiments touched on earlier: the power of food to bring people of all ages and backgrounds together and break bread (literally, in this instance); the power of food as a springboard for building relationships, here bolstered by a shared passion for food in all its guises as common ground. Whatever the year's theme may be, at the Oxford Symposium, the power of food is truly apparent—in the very best way.

As promised, today we have our first Giveaway to celebrate the Good Old Days Farm's First birthday!
The Total Money Makeover by Dave Ramsey!
Two or three years before we ever thought about opening The Good Old Days Farm, Papa-the-then-software-engineer came home one night with The Total Money Makeover by Dave Ramsey. "It's a money book," he said, "But I think you'll like it."
Ugh. A Money book. My eyes glazed over and my stomach tightened into knots at the mere thought. My first English Lit professor had welcomed us to university by spreading her arms open wide and announcing, "Welcome to the world of people who have escaped numbers!" and I had taken her literally. Anyway, we were doing ok financially, I thought. Or at least, that's what I would have thought if I'd ever taken the time to think about money. We didn't have credit card debt, we were paying extra against our house each month and we had savings. I figured beyond that, there was really no need to bore myself with this mundane-money-stuff.
Later that evening I dutifully sat down to browse a few pages. Wow!!! This guy writes about money management in a way that I can relate to! None of the ho-hum academic mumble-jumble that I was expecting to find in a book about personal finance! Reading this book feels very much like having a neighbor over for a chat. His tone is frank and friendly and he manages to explain financial concepts in way that is simple without being condescending. He unpacks myths about debt and money. Ever wonder whether you should buy the extended warranty on something? Ever been asked to loan money to a friend? When it's time to buy a car do you understand the math behind whether you should buy used, buy new or lease? Ever wish you had somebody to guide you through the world of investing? Saving for college? Teach you how to write a budget? Sorting out what insurance you need and what you don't need? This book explains all this and more! Have you ever thought about paying off your house? The Total Money Makeover walks you through every step of your financial life from paying off mounds of debt to complete financial freedom!
Just between you and I, I had so much fun reading this book! It really encouraged me to sit up and pay attention to our family finances instead of dumping it all on my husband's lap. For a brief instant about halfway through the book, I was so inspired by what I was reading that I was actually disappointed that we didn't have debt because I was going to miss out on the fun of paying it off! (Sorry, Dave! I'm pretty sure that was not the desired effect!)
Why did I select this book as part of our celebratory Giveaway?
I get a lot of comments that it must be very exciting to be able to quit a traditional job in order to follow your dream. I also get emails from people who want to move out of the city and start a small self-sustaining farm. The fact of the matter is that when you quit a career with a regular income, LIFE hits you hard and you need to be ready for it! The electricity company still expects to be paid. The car still needs gas to work. (So does the tractor, by the way!) The children are not going to accept the explanation that "we aren't eating this week because Papa is pursuing his dream." In fairy tales, we jump on the back of a white horse and ride off into the sunset chasing our dream! But in real life, the only way to make a dream work is to have the money to finance it.
Reading The Total Money Makeover and putting the plan laid out there into practice was key to making the dream of starting a farm work for our family and that is why I am so excited to share this wonderful resource with you!

How Du Preez twins will get their Bok mojo back
PREMIERSHIP SPOTLIGHT: Sale Sharks captain Jono Ross believes the club's uncanny ability to revive seemingly stalled international careers will enable the newly arrived trio of Rob, Jean-Luc and Dan du Preez to return to the Springbok colours.
All three du Preez brothers are involved with Sale's punishing pre-season training programme at a Premiership outfit that helped Faf de Klerk and James O'Connor earn Test recalls and put themselves in line for involvement at the World Cup in Japan.
Springbok scrum-half de Klerk and Wallaby centre O'Connor were, for various reasons, in the international wilderness when they arrived at Sale, but both are now pressing for World Cup action.
Previously, Sale worked their magic on England's Danny Cipriani, although Eddie Jones has since halted his Test career by deeming him unworthy of a place in the 31-strong squad for the finals.
Besides the likely involvement of de Klerk and the now-departed O'Connor, Sale is set to be represented at the World Cup by Tom Curry (England), new recruit Lood de Jager (South Africa), AJ MacGinty (USA) and Byron McGuigan(Scotland).
With so many players away in the Far East, it offers the du Preez brothers the chance to enhance their reputations with Rob having impressed last season before having a rough time after returning to the Sharks for their Super Rugby campaign.
His father – also Rob – paid the price as head coach in Durban, prompting 24-year-old twins Jean-Luc and Dan to also make their loan moves to Sale permanent.
The arrival of the du Preez brothers gives Sale a unique back row contingent as it also includes the Curry twins Ben and Tom, England flanker Mark Wilson (on loan from Newcastle), with Ross also battling to get a start in what will be an incredibly combative line-up of talent in the Premiership and Europe.
The squad is also able to call on the running power of England wing Marland Yarde, who was offloaded by Harlequins and has now recovered from what Ross describes as the worst knee injury he has seen.
Ross said: "There is an outstanding record of guys who have lost their way, finding their way again at Sale. Steve Diamond has to take a lot of credit for helping players get back into Test rugby and is a better man-manager than people give him credit for.
"All three du Preez brothers are with us for the next three years, which is fantastic for the club. We all saw last year what Rob and JL were able to bring to the squad and Dan is a quality player.
"The twins are very abrasive players who are still young and add ballast and quality to the squad. They are also identical, like Tom and Ben Curry, and there cannot be another professional rugby team in the world with two sets of identical twins. It's quite crazy.
"If you look at Faf, he was out of the Springbok mix when he came over and got himself back in there, and I believe the du Preez brothers are closer to recalls than Faf was when he arrived. Hopefully, they can put in some good performances for us and off back of that get some international recognition again.
"James O'Connor has been through some really hard times and faced a lot of criticism. He would be the first to admit he made some mistakes but fair play to him, he turned things around and was fantastic for us before heading back to Australia.
"He seems to be the link player the Wallabies have been missing. AJ is a quality player and we saw that when he came back from injury last season and has been going really well. I believe the USA is a sleeping giant and he is at the forefront of it."
Ross, who had an outstanding last season as Sale captain, expects an even stronger challenge for a top-four Premiership finish in 2019/20 and believes the domination of football in Manchester helps keep everyone focussed on the job in hand.
He explained: "When I arrived at Sale I recognised there is a great group of guys, mainly northerners, who are very welcoming and it is a great environment. You don't really have anybody who is difficult and that means when guys come in who have had some problems, they fit in really well and flourish in the set-up.
"Our intensity at training has been higher than last season and we have been working really hard and for a club like Sale to have the quality of players coming back and those who just missed out on international selection says a lot for where Steve Diamond and the board are taking the club.
"However, having good players do not necessarily make you a great team and we have been working on some team culture things. Because there is so much sport in Manchester, rugby, in comparison, is quite small.
"You quickly realise there isn't any celebrity hype around anyone because of football, which is a good thing. We are trying to raise the profile of rugby and the club are doing a fantastic job."

Tesla Motors CEO Elon Musk's first $5-billion "gigafactory" to build lithium-ion batteries is still on the drawing boards, but he's already looking ahead to the next couple of hundred. With growing demand from conventional automakers, "there's going to need to be lots of gigafactories," he reportedly told the World Energy Innovation Forum in mid-May. "Just to supply auto demand, you need 200 gigafactories." Tesla is still deciding whether to locate its first plant in Texas, Arizona, Nevada, or New Mexico.

Just returned from a week vacation visiting our parents over Easter break, but we are hitting the ground running to make our weekly meal plans, and keep my sanity. Sunday morning after we flew in, hubby and M ran to the store for breakfast supplies (eggs, sausage, fruit, bread and milk). Then later he went back during naptime for the veggies for the sausage and rice! My motivation for cooking most weeknights is to have leftovers - so I have something to pack for M's lunch as well as our own. It helps us all make better food choices when we are crunched for time, and let's us spend our $ on meals out over the weekend when we can really enjoy it.
As usual the lineup includes one meatless dinner and one fish dinner.
Sausage and Rice - Our dinner-in-a-pinch, this week with brown rice! I still haven't perfected this, but I try to sub whole grains for processed ones in as many places as I can. I started 1 cup of brown rice with 3 cups of water. Brought to a boil and then simmered for 10 minutes before adding the kielbasa rounds. Cooked with sausage for 10 more minutes, then added the chopped broccoli and red pepper. Cooked for a final 10 minutes. The result was still a little soupy, and a bit creamier than the white rice version, but I let it rest, uncovered for a bit, served with a slotted spoon. By the end of dinner the extra water had been absorbed/evaporated.
Chicken and Bean Nachos - adapted from this recipe, We make the avocado salsa (usually omitting the jicama if we can't find it). Otherwise we layer tortilla chips, then shredded rotisserie chicken (we use about half of one, and save the rest for something else), rinsed canned pinto or black beans, and a thin layer of shredded Mexican or cheddar cheese on a cookie sheet. Broil for 10 minutes or until cheese is melted, and top with the salsa. We usually make one cookie sheet-ful for our family of 2.5, and the rest makes all our lunches for the next day.
To make the next day lunches, I put all the topings together in a tupperware, one in each corner, and pack chips seperately. Hubby and I assemble all but the salsa, microwave to melt cheese, then top with Salsa. M eats all his seperately.
Not your mama's tuna salad - courtesy of Rachel Ray. This is another easy favorite of mine :)
Tacos & re-fried beans - The tacos are your average recipe (store-bought shells; meat seasoned with a store-bought packet of seasoning... we used half a pound of leftover bison, and some of our leftover rotisserie chicken from the nachos above; diced tomatoes, shredded cheese, avocado chunks, plain greek yogurt instead of sour cream) and we used Ellie Kreiger's recipe for the beans (delicious! even my husband was pleasantly surprised!)
Quinoa salad - adapted from this recipe, I swapped quinoa for the wheat berries, but everything else is the same - YUM!
This week we also took a family urban hike to our closest grocery store on a chilly, overcast day and picked up frozen pizzas (hubby and I always get our own since we like different things, which means plenty for M and lunch leftovers) + frozen veggies for a Saturday-night-in dinner. We also picked up ingredients to make our favorite breakfast casserole Sunday morning:
2 cans reduced fat crescent rolls
1 roll reduced fat breakfast sausage, cooked and crumbled
8 eggs (1 yolk reserved)
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1/4 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
Preheat oven to 350
1. Unroll one can of crescent rolls on the bottom of a greased 9x13 pan.
2. Top with sausage and cheeses (beware: too much cheese will make the casserole too greasy).
3. Scramble the 7 eggs and 1 egg white (reserving the 8th yolk), and pour over the sausage and cheese.
4. Unroll and top with the second can of crescent rolls.
5. Brush top layer with reserved yolk.
Bake for 25-30 minutes, until center of casserole is set.
Cut and serve!!

With the benefit of hindsight, it seems obvious that the Metropolitan Museum, under Tom Campbell's directorship, got way ahead of itself in making ambitious plans to undertake a $600-million makeover of its Southwest Wing for modern and contemporary art and to assume (for at least eight years) the operation and programming of a large additional facility—the former home of the Whitney Museum (now "the Met Breuer").
The negative impact of these miscalculations could complicate the search for what the Met needs most of all—a highly accomplished new director who is willing to work as a subordinate to president and CEO, Daniel Weiss—an unorthodox organizational structure for an art museum, which could be a deal-killer for some top candidates. Under the current administrative set-up, Weiss is wearing too many hats. Given the Met's pressing financial and administrative exigencies, he and the Met's two deputy directors cannot possibly be as focused as an accomplished director would be on advancing the institution's all-important programmatic and artistic initiatives.
As for the current status of plans for the Southwest Wing, Met chief communications officer Kenneth Weine told me: "We have no immediate timetable and feel no time pressure on this work, yet it is in progress." That seems to mean: "Don't hold your breath."
Regarding the Met Breuer, which opened in March 2016, the jury is still out as to whether it's a plus or a minus. It has apparently become a bigger financial burden than expected: Back in April 2016, president Daniel Weiss had assured me that "we've already got the Breuer philanthropically funded out for many years. We have virtually no concern that the direct costs will be funded."
He then added that the satellite facility's "only draw on our operating budget has been the indirect costs associated with staff helping to get the thing up and running. That's a heavier draw on resources for the last six months than it will be prospectively, because now it's open and running and the staff is there. So I honestly don't believe that the Breuer is contributing in any meaningful way to these financial challenges"…
…or maybe it is:
In her recent NY Times piece—With a Big Gift and Tighter Oversight, the Met Gains Solid Ground—Robin Pogrebin quoted Weiss as saying that the Met Breuer is turning out to be "a bigger commitment to make it run than we'd thought. If we continue beyond eight years [the initial lease], we want to have a sustainable operating model and we haven't done that yet" [emphasis added].
The strain of trying to program an entire additional museum space while sharply reducing the exhibition budget and the total number of shows may explain why some of the Met's displays at the Breuer seem "Unfinished" (the title of the satellite facility's disappointing inaugural show). The current Delirious (to Jan. 14) struck me as an uneven hodgepodge of works that have little to say to each other, notwithstanding their thematic groupings. In her lukewarm NY Times review, Roberta Smith suggested that theme shows like this "can seem both arbitrary and amorphous," although she deemed this one to be "valuable, warts and all." For me, "arbitrary and amorphous" were the operative words.
Far more compelling is the current Edvard Munch show, curated by one of the Museum of Modern Art's regrettable losses—Gary Garrels, senior curator of painting and sculpture at the expanded San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, where he masterminded a thoughtful reinstallation of the permanent collection, interspersing lesser-knowns among the usual big names.
With extensive loans from the Munch Museum, Oslo, the Met Breuer version (to Feb. 4) of the paintings survey that closed in October at SFMOMA not only explores the Norwegian artist's morbid ruminations on sex, illness and mortality, but also positions him as an Expressionist, feverishly deploying broad slashes of seething colors in his later works:
Viewing the show's mournful procession of the painter's dejected models creates a particularly eerie vibe in the context of recent revelations about the predations of men in positions of power—proving once again that great artists can sometimes be contemptible, guilt-ridden cads.
Although the art is well worth experiencing, the label texts at the Met, rewritten by its own curators, are substandard. Too often, they describe what we can easily see for ourselves, without providing the deeper interpretive context that was the great strength Jasper Johns and Edvard Munch (now closed), organized for the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts by John Ravenal, now director of the deCordova Sculpture Park and Museum (my review of which proved to be my swansong at the Wall Street Journal).
Compare the labels from the VMFA (below, on left) and the Met Breuer for this image:
The shows at both the VMFA and the Met included this heartbreaking work:
But only VMFA's label unflinchingly explained the significance of its title, "Inheritance":
The title refers to the life-threatening transfer of syphilis from mother to child, visible in the deformed proportions and pale, spotted skin of the corpse-like infant. Munch's interest in the subject was not just in drawing attention to a prevalent social scourge; it also addressed his fears about the physical and mental illness in his own family
The first-draft feel of some of the Met Breuer's shows may be a function of the relative haste in which they were assembled. Christian Larsen, the Met's associate curator of modern design and decorative arts, revealed at a press preview that his Ettore Sottsass show (now closed) was a mere nine months in the making—too tight a schedule to secure certain desirable loans.
When I asked Larsen why the show had been mounted in such haste, he candidly replied:
It was entirely due to scheduling and the availability of an empty floor in this building this summer. They said: "We have an empty floor. We need a show. Christian, you just arrived [in December 2015]. We need a design show. Do it!"
You can imagine that with all of the juggling that the Met has been doing around its finances lately, a lot of shows have been lengthened, deleted, moved from locations. Through that juggling, they wound up with an empty floor that had to be filled and I had an opportunity.
Normally, we would need two to three years to do it.
The Met (and especially its Madison Avenue outpost) has been knocked off-stride by financial and administrative obstacles. If a new director with a strong track record were to be appointed tomorrow, it would be none too soon.

News Details
Adoption of digitization system has not only helped in speedy execution of works and ensure more transparency in delivery of various people centric services, but has also kept a check on corruption: CM 6-06-2016
- Chandigarh June 6: Haryana Chief Minister Mr Manohar Lal said that adoption of digitization system has not only helped in speedy execution of works and ensure more transparency in delivery of various people centric services, but has also kept a check on corruption.
- Mr Manohar Lal was speaking at a function organized under Digital India campaign where he also flagged off two mobile vans with slogan "Mili Meri Pragati Ko Raftar" inscribed on them. These vans would be taken to rural areas across the State over the next six months to disseminate information regarding e-Governance schemes through audio visual tools.
- The Chief Minister said that with a view to ensure that farmers, the poor and labourers are also benefited from various government schemes and programmes, these two vans would cover rural areas in the State to spread awareness about various welfare schemes of the Central and State Government through publicity material, audio-visual tools, speeches and 'Nukad Nataks'. While one van started from Panchkula, the other started from Sirsa and these vehicles would cover the State in six months.
- He said that when he took over the reign of administration in the State, he had dreamt of 'Digital Haryana' on the lines of Digital India as envisaged by the Prime Minister Mr Narendra Modi. He said that apart from the ambitious Beti Bachao Beti Padhao Programme, Mr Modi also referred to digital campaign of the State Government at various fora. He also attributed accuracy in framing various government policies and prgrammes to digitization. He said that digitization has also made the correspondence much easier as one could deliver the message to others in another part of the world through e-mail and that too only with a click of a button.
- While underlining the significance of digitization in keeping a check on corruption, Mr Manohar Lal said that a survey revealed that as a result of linking of Ration Cards with Aadhar Card, five lakh families, out of total 11.5 lakh families, have been detected as using both kerosene and LPG though they are entitled for either of the two under the Public Distribution System. He said that efforts were being made to discontinue the use of kerosene by providing gas connection to the remaining families. Similarly, the admission of students has also been linked with Aadhar.
- Referring to various steps taken by the State Government in the field of e-governance, the Chief Minister said that more than 200 services were being provided in the villages of the State through Common Service Centres (CSC). Apart from this optical fiber has been laid in 3700 villages of the State and the remaining villages would be covered by March 2017. With this, the people would not have to visit district headquarter to get their work done. Instead they would get all services in their villages itself. He said that ease of doing business has been ensured to provide time bound clearances to investors for setting up of their units in the State. HARSAMAY Portal of Police Department has been launched where people could file their complaint by sitting at home. Apart from this, system of zero FIR has been started under which anybody could lodge FIR in any police station irrespective of its jurisdiction. He also gave detailed information about various e-initiatives of the State Government which included Aadhar Enabled Birth Registration, State Resident Data Base (SRDB), Biometric Attendance System and CM Dashboard.
- Earlier, the Chief Minister also launched a mobile application 'Dial Haryana'. This application would be available on all Android phones from tomorrow and soon it would be made available on other mobile phones also. With this app, the user would be able to access the online directory of Haryana Government. Contact number of officers of all departments would be made available on this mobile application. Apart from this, news update of Chief Minister's office would also be uploaded on this application, besides the latest information of other departments.
- On this occasion, Principal Secretary, Information Technology Mr Devender Singh gave a detailed presentation on various e-initiatives of the State Government. He said that Food Net", a new programme would be launched in the State in the month of November to ensure transparency and plug leakage and diversion of farmers' produce. Initially this programme would be started in Kurukshetra and Hisar. Apart from this, UMANG scheme would be started with the assistance of Government of India. Under this scheme, all the services being provided by Common Service Centre (CSC) could also be availed through mobile application.
- Chief General Manager, Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited (BSNL) Mr R.C Arya and Chief Post Master General of Haryana Col. Sukhdev Raj also spoke about the services being provided by them. They also assured the State Government of their support and cooperation in the implementation of various welfare schemes and programmes.
- Others present on the occasion included MLA Kalka, Mrs Latika Sharma, Deputy Commissioner Mrs Garima Mittal, Commissioner of Police Ambala-Panchkula, Mr R.C. Mishra, Panches and Sarpanches of district Sirsa and Panchkula, other senior officers of the State Government.

Have you ever been so desperate to heal yours that you will try anything? I had that experience for the first time in the summer of 2010.
I had been struggling for years with a diagnosis of bipolar disorder. My body and mind were extremely imbalanced.
The doctors I was seeing prescribed 9 different psychiatric medications. I was on 11 medications total.
Over the course of 4 years, I had gained 100 pounds and became unrecognizable to myself and those who loved me. Chronic pain, suicidal thoughts, insomnia, daily migraines, digestive issues, constipation, and hypothyroidism ruled my life.
Full of anger, hurt and shame, I was not able to take care of myself and had to live with my parents. I even attempted to take my own life and was hospitalized for over two months healing from the damage the overdose caused.
From Bi-Polar to Blissful
My nephew Porter's birth in 2009 opened my heart up to love again. I not only wanted to be alive, I wanted...
The first step to healing is the desire and the willingness to make change. The real work comes after the aha moment.
This blog is for those ready to make the change, but feel lost when it comes to hiring the practitioners needed to help them on their journey.
It's something you feel deep inside of you. The call to let go of your burdens and limiting beliefs. You are ready to discover your purpose and passions. It's time for bliss.
But... you don't where do you begin. Navigating the world of holistic health can be overwhelming and confusing. I can relate to what you are going through.
My transformation required an entire tribe of healers to support me. I even enrolled in a healing arts college and found I had to constantly ask questions to make sure I was choosing the right courses.
I spent YEARS struggling with a diagnosis of bipolar...

The LCD is a Quanta QD17TL02. The resolution is 1440 x 900. There is a 32 pin connector on the panel and a 7 pin connector on the inverter. Can anyone help me?

Re: Finding an LCD controller
There is a ebay seller called "njytouch". Contact them and ask which of their lcd controller boards support your lcd. They actually support your lcd screen: QD17TL02 Rev.06. I would ask them just to confirm.

Antonin Scalia apparently is troubled by the thought of any decline in the Home of the Brave. For that and many other reasons, the U.S. Supreme Court justice joined seven colleagues last Thursday in authorizing the disclosure of the names of people who sign referendum and initiative petitions. Congratulations to Washington State Attorney General Rob McKenna for making the case before the high court so compellingly that it drew a bipartisan 8-1 approval.
The ruling was proper because it accurately defines initiative and referendum petition-signers as — essentially — would-be law-changers. The public has the right to know who is trying to change the law, whether those legislators are professionals (politicians) or amateurs (petition-signers). Further, our state's grand tradition of open government demands this kind of transparency.
Scalia eloquently explained this principle in his written opinion: "For my part, I do not look forward to a society which, thanks to the Supreme Court, campaigns anonymously and even exercises the direct democracy of initiative and referendum hidden from public scrutiny and protected from the accountability of criticism. This does not resemble the Home of the Brave." So true.
This case was brought before the Supreme Court by Protect Marriage Washington, an activist group fighting disclosure of names of people who signed petitions for Referendum 71. Washington voters (53 percent of those participating) last year rejected that ballot measure and, in so doing, retained "all but marriage" domestic partnership rights passed earlier by the Legislature.
R-71 supporters claimed that disclosing the names could subject the signatories to harassment. That concern is understandable, but as Scalia wrote, "There are laws against threats and intimidation, and harsh criticism, short of unlawful action, is a price our people have traditionally been willing to pay for self-governance. Requiring people to stand up in public for their political acts fosters civic courage, without which democracy is doomed." Or, as we have editorialized, Washingtonians would never put up with legislators trying to change laws anonymously; why should they accept such efforts among practitioners of direct democracy?
The R-71 case, technically, remains unresolved because the Supreme Court ruled only on the broader issue as brought by Protect Marriage Washington. The court also ruled that the R-71 activists still may appeal for an exemption to the broader ruling, and such appeal is expected. However, arguing that case in the shadow of the court's 8-1 ruling would loom as a daunting task.
Also to the harassment issue, Washington Secretary of State Sam Reed said in a statement: "I understand privacy concerns in the Internet era and the … fear of harassment or retaliation … We have a long history of debating and voting on some very difficult and personal issues in a civil way, and I believe we will continue to do so."
The bipartisan nature of this ruling (only Justice Clarence Thomas dissented) is quite stunning in today's political environment. Scalia, McKenna and Reed all are Republicans, yet disclosing the identity of petition-signers has been urged more forcefully by liberal elements of government, talk shows and society in general. Last week's ruling is refreshing evidence that protecting the people's right to open government remains the responsibility of all public officials, party affiliation notwithstanding.
And here's one last tip of the hat to McKenna: In 2008, the state attorney general secured Supreme Court approval of our state's highly controversial top two primary, by a 7-2 ruling. Now he's up to 8-1. The kid might have a promising career in law some day.

On this West Virginia Morning, we'll visit a plantation owned by a villainized African-American woman, and we'll hear the latest on halted construction of both the Atlantic Coast Pipeline and the Mountain Valley Pipeline.
Federal regulators halted construction of the 604-mile Atlantic Coast Pipeline on Friday. It's the second major natural gas pipeline under construction in West Virginia to receive a stop-work order in the last month.
Federal officials also shut down construction of the Mountain Valley pipeline.
In both cases, officials cited recent rulings by the federal U.S. 4th Circuit Court of Appeals as the reason for halting work. Since getting the green light from federal regulators last year, more than a dozen lawsuits have been filed challenging the two major pipelines. They touch on everything from landowner rights to compliance with a slew of federal laws.
Ellen Gilmer is a legal reporter who's been following litigation for E&E News, a Washington, D.C.-based news organization that covers energy and environment issues. Reporter Brittany Patterson spoke with Gilmer about some of the recent decisions and how the courts are fundamentally changing the natural gas pipeline buildout occurring in Appalachia.
Our latest episode of Inside Appalachia highlights the life and work of a woman from Georgia named Shirley Sherrod. She's devoted her life to helping black farmers in the South. Up next, we'll hear an excerpt of this episode, a story produced by the Southern Foodways Alliance in 2015. The first voice you'll hear is producer Tina Antolinii, as Sherrod shows her the land that her family has farmed for generations.

When one of a company's biggest customers goes out of business, you can guarantee that some financial hardship waits right around the corner. Sell these three stocks now before they crash because they can no longer afford their dividend payments.
The recent financial failure and pending bankruptcy of Korea's Hanjin Shipping Co. is generating a lot of news. Most of the coverage is about the half-million shipping containers and $14 billion worth of goods that have been stranded because the Hanjin ships can't enter ports to unload. With almost two-thirds of its fleet consisting of leased vessels, the collapse of Hanjin will result in serious financial strain on the owners of those leased vessels. Let's discuss companies and stocks that will be hurt by the Hanjin failure and one that should reap some benefits.
The Hanjin fleet includes 98 container transport ships of varying sizes. According to the Wall Street Journal, when the company was fully operational it was the seventh largest container ship company in the world, transporting about 3% of the worldwide container traffic and 10% of the containers moving between Asia and Europe. Hanjin was a large and serious player in the container shipping business and its failure puts a pretty big dent in the ability to move goods from where they are manufactured to the markets where they get sold. Of the Hanjin fleet, the company owns 37 ships (most with outstanding loans from the state-run Korean Development Bank) and 61 leased vessels with three primary owners of those ships.
According to reports, almost all of the 61 leased ships will be returned to the owners. These companies will then be holding assets that are no longer generating lease payments and most likely have loans themselves on the ships that require payments. The leasing companies will need to find some outlet for the returned ships, by either selling the vessels or finding other shipping companies to lease them. This process will take time, and the ship owners face a level of financial hardship ranging from moderate to severe. The leased Hanjin ships are owned by three companies, and these are stocks you should now avoid:
Danaos Corporation (NYSE: DAC) has a $350 million market cap. The company has chartered eight of its 59 containership fleet to Hanjin. The Hanjin charters account for $560 million or 20% of the Danaos revenue backlog. Danaos carries $2.3 billion of long-term debt against $3.7 billion of assets. Losing one-fifth of its revenue stream wipes out the total amount of net income reported in 2015. Expect some more serious declines in this stock.
Seaspan Corporation (NYSE: SSW) is a $1.5 billion market value container ship leasing company. The Seaspan website shows that four vessels out of its 90 ship fleet are leased to Hanjin. While the exposure to Hanjin is just 5% of the Seaspan fleet, that size of reduction in revenue would result in about a 12% decline in the cash available for distribution. Seaspan currently pays an attractive dividend with an 11% yield. A dividend cut is possible if the company cannot quickly find a home for the returned Hanjin vessels.
SEE ALSO: Sell These 5 Stocks on the Verge of Bankruptcy
Navios Maritime Partners LP (NYSE: NMM) valued at $125 million, is listed as the third company with ships leased to Hanjin. NMM owns 30 ships, 22 of which are dry bulk, and it appears just two are containers ships leased to Hanjin. However, the Navios Maritime Partners business started to collapse two years ago with the steep decline in bulk cargo shipping rates. NMM is a basket case and the loss of the Hanjin leases will just add to the mountain of problems. If you own NMM shares don't count on a recovery any time soon.
Who Benefits From the Hanjin BK?
As noted above, the Hanjin Shipping shutdown has taken about 3% of the container transport capacity out of the worldwide supply. At the same time, retailers will be ordering more goods from overseas manufacturers to stock up for the holiday season. The combination of reduced supply and increased demand should give a boost to container shipping rates.
Ship Finance International Limited (NYSE: SFL) is a ship leasing company that will benefit from the situation. Ship Finance owns a diversified fleet of vessels, with about one-quarter of its contracted revenue coming from its containerships. The company has been growing its containership exposure rapidly, more than tripling its ownership in this vessel class over the last three years. Most importantly, Ship Finance has no charters with Hanjin. When questioned about the company during the latest earnings call CEO Ole Hjertaker stated,
"I would say that we have seen several chartering opportunities over the last couple of years with that name and also with, I would say, other relatively soft names from a credit perspective. We have refrained from doing long-term charters with those entities simply because of the risk of this happening…..our focus in the liner (containership) side has been to deal with the stronger market leaders."
Ship Finance shares currently yield 12% and the company's cash flow to support the dividend is secure. This stock is a solid, high-yield opportunity to take advantage of the turmoil caused by the Hanjin Shipping shutdown.

The mass arrests on the Brooklyn Bridge did little to stifle Occupy Wall Street protesters: hundreds went right back to the demonstration after getting sprung from the lockup.
"I'm back because I want to tell everyone: just because we're being arrested, we're not being silenced," said Robert Grodt, 24.
"You go to Italy, you eat gelato. You go to a protest, you expect to be arrested," said Daniel Levine, 22, a Baruch College journalism student. "Nobody gets spooked by the arrests."
Nearly 700 people were arrested as they tried to march over the bridge Saturday, the end of the second week of the often nebulous protest against corporate greed, income inequality and tax breaks for fat cats.
Cops and protesters argued over whether the demonstrators defied police orders to stay on the pedestrian part of the bridge or were lured into a trap by cops who said they could use the roadway.
In a page out of the protesters' own handbook, the NYPD released a video Sunday showing a captain with a bullhorn telling a teeming throng at the base of the bridge, "I'm ordering you to leave this roadway now. If you do so voluntarily, no charges will be placed against you."
The crowd responded with chants of "Take Our Bridge" and linked arms to start their march as more protesters on the walkway cheered them.
The Brooklyn-bound lanes of the bridge were closed for nearly three hours beginning around 4 p.m. as cops rounded up hundreds of protesters.
"The protestors were warned - stay off the roadway," said Police Commissioner Ray Kelly. "I think everyone knew that you're not supposed to be on the roadway."
(The protesters returned in full force on Sunday; Jefferson Siegel for News)
"The police did exactly what they are supposed to do," said Mayor Bloomberg.
Some protesters who did not hear any announcements claimed the police set a trap by initially allowing them to march, then arresting them without warning.
"The cops led us onto that street. There was no announcement," said Casey O'Neill, 34, who quit his computer job in Oakland, CA, to join the protest and was among the throng taken into custody.
"It was scary because mostly, no one knew what was going on."
Milo Gonzalez, 20, who was charged with use of prohibited roadway, failure to disperse and blocking vehicular traffic, said he tried to follow orders but in the crush and confusion, could not.
"This one cop told me to leave or I'd get arrested so I said, 'okay, no problem, I'll go.' I turned around into more cops. I couldn't leave," he said.
Like so many others, he came straight back to Zuccotti Park, which has been occupied by the protesters for the last two weeks.
Next week, the often-incoherant demonstration will get a boost of organization and muscle when several large unions plan to join in.
A big union march is set for Wednesday.
A group of teachers from around New York and New Jersey was at the park grading papers Sunday.
"We're demonstrating how hard teachers work. During the weekends, the teacher with the red pen is not a myth," said Lauren Goldberg, 26, who teached high school English in Allendale, N.J.
"Instead of seeing teachers as villains, this is what we really look like," she said.

Former Giants pitcher Stu Miller, who is most remembered for being "blown off the mound" during the 1961 All-Star game at Candlestick Park, has died. He was 87.
The Giants said Miller died at his home in Cameron Park on Sunday after a brief illness.
Miller played 16 years in the majors for the Giants (1957-62), Cardinals, Phillies, Orioles and Braves. He led the league in ERA once and saves twice but is most known for his All-Star game performance.
Miller was called for a balk in the ninth inning that helped the A.L. score the tying run. Miller got the win in extra innings, but the headlines the next day proclaimed "Miller Blown off Mound." He long proclaimed the legend to be overblown.
Miller was twice named the Fireman of the Year, honoring the league"s top relief pitcher, and he is one of nine pitchers in history (Dennis Eckersley, Hoyt Wilhelm and Rollie Fingers among them) to compile at least 100 victories and 150 saves.
"The passing of Stu Miller brings great sadness to our organization," Giants president and CEO Larry Baer said in a team release. "Stu had a long and distinguished career with some of his best seasons coming in a Giants uniform. We express our deepest condolences to his family and will have them in our thoughts and prayers."
Miller is survived by his wife, Jayne, daughters Lori and Kim, sons Scott, Marc, Gary and Matthew, and his five grandchildren.

Nothing warms the soul like the aromas of fresh, authentic Italian cooking. Make the flavors of rustic, traditional fare a part of your reality with a meal at Massa's Coal Fired Brick Oven Pizzeria on Main Street in Huntington. In addition to the expertly cooked pies served up with your choice of toppings and crisped to perfection in their brick oven, you'll find a vast assortment of other food favorites available for dining in or eating on the run.
Massa's is offering our members a delicious promotion of $15 for $30 Worth of Food and Drink (valid Sun-Wed - minimum purchase of $50).
Thin crust pizza made with fresh mozzarella, perfect sauce and a hint of basil will make your taste buds sing the praises of their classic Margherita pie. Or think outside the box with nontraditional options like the white pie (with or without ricotta), topped with scallions, pancetta, Scomorza cheese, and truffle oil. We also love the caramelized onion marinara pie, a perfect blend of sweet and savory. For those with dietary restrictions, Massa's offers whole wheat and gluten-free pies so the whole family can enjoy.
If pizza's not what you're craving, dig into a crisp and delicious salad, mouth-watering calzone, or eggplant Parmigiana. Pasta dishes like the ziti marinara with meatballs will also have you coming back for more… tomorrow. Finish off your incredible Italian meal with a traditional dessert like the Spumoni truffle of vanilla, chocolate, strawberry, and pistachio ice cream with a cherry and almond center and dark chocolate. Or try the made-to-order cannolis, a house favorite. Whether you plan to savor your meal in-house and take advantage of the full bar, or pick up your food curbside, this full-service Italian eatery has everything your appetite can handle and more.
The Massa family is pizza royalty, of sorts, being related to both Patsy Grimaldi, who founded Patsy's (which became Grimaldi's) in Brooklyn and, also, to Patsy Lancieri, who founded Patsy's of East Harlem. On a visit to their restaurant, you may see the family matriarch Esther Grimaldi-Massa, whose brother now owns Juliana's Pizza in Brooklyn. Maybe she will share her meatball recipe with you, they're delicious!
