The Best Pizza Open Thread

by Rodan ( 238 Comments › )
Filed under Open thread at July 3rd, 2010 - 2:00 pm

As everyone knows I am proud ex NYer. I love my hometown and have fond memories of it. However the New York of today is not the one I grew up to. It has been over run by Islamic Colonialists who have Mayor Bloomberg in their pockets. One thing that was great about NYC was the pizza. Without a doubt It’s Pizza was the best in world, with Chicago a close 2nd. That said I have re evaluated  my view point. Yesterday Coldwarrior took me to a pizza joint in Pittsburgh that was amazing. It  as the best I have every eaten in my life. The dough was amazing as was the cheese and tomatoes. The place is called The Church Brew Works and yes it is in an old church.

Due to financial and organizational considerations, the Diocese underwent a major reorganization in 1993. On the 6th of August in 1993, the church was put under an act of suppression by the Bishop of Pittsburgh. The building lay dormant until the construction began in early 1996. It was almost three years to the day when The Church Brew Works reopened the doors of St. John the Baptist for business on the 1st of August in 1996.

This is an Open Thread for this Saturday afternoon!

Coldwarrior says hi!

    Without pepperoni, there is no pizza. For me, it’s all about the pepperoni. And it needs to be cooked until the pepperoni stats to curl up slightly and get a little crunchy around the edges.

    And Brooklyn style thin crust is the best. Never been a “deep dish” guy. Every once and a while I will get a “Chicago style” just to remind myself why I prefer the Brooklyn.

    Pizza! I’m partial to Chicago thin crust pizza, sliced into squares.
    The crust has to be crisp. NY pizza is good too.
    A really great pizza that you can get in Chicago at selected places is the “White” pizza. They just substitute oil & garlic for the red sauce.

    best pizza i have ever had was in Ames, IA. can’t remember the name of the place though.

    Noam Chomsky: US More Fundamentalist Than Saudi Arabia Or Taliban

    “Noam Chomsky: We must bear in mind that the US is a very fundamentalist society, perhaps more than any other society in the world – even more fundamentalist than Saudi Arabia or the Taliban. That’s very surprising. About half of the [US] population believes that all living species were created 6,000 years ago in their current form.”

    “Teh creationists are like teh Taliban! ZOMG!1eleventy1!”
    Sounds like a Charles Johnson talking point. Expect a thread in praise of Chomsky on LGF in 3…2…1…

    Chumpsky and Chuckles…last time I checked, the Southern Baptists weren’t beheading blasphemers, stoning adulterers and declaring unrestricted warfare on “infidels”.

    Best steak I had was in Marshalltown, IA. The amazing thing was that you cooked it yourself. You went in, picked out your raw steak and paid for it, and then you cooked over a huge bed of charcoal in the middle of the place. Then you grabbed your potatoe (I did that just to piss off liberals) and salad and stuff, and sat down, and ated it.

    So, the Reich Wing supports the Christofascist equivalent of the following?

    “Yahya related to me from Malik from Yahya ibn Said from Abu Salih as-Samman from Abu Hurayra that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, “Had I not been concerned for my community, I would have liked never to stay behind a raiding party going out in the way of Allah. However, I do not find the means to carry them to it, nor do they find anything on which to ride out and it is grievous for them that they should stay behind me. I would like to fight in the way of Allah and be killed, then brought to life so I could be killed and then brought to life so I could be killed.”"–Al-Muwatta 21 21.18.40

    “Yahya related to me from Malik that he had heard that Umar ibn Abd al-Aziz wrote to one of his governors, “It has been passed down to us that when the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, sent out a raiding party, he would say to them, ‘Make your raids in the name of Allah in the way of Allah. Fight whoever denies Allah.’”–Al-Muwatta 21 21.3.11

    “It has been reported from Sulaiman b. Buraid through his father that when the Messenger of Allah appointed anyone as leader of an army or detachment he would especially exhort him to fear Allah and to be good to the Muslims who were with him. He would say: Fight in the name of Allah and in the way of Allah. Fight against those who disbelieve in Allah. Make a holy war…When you meet your enemies who are polytheists, invite them to three courses of action…Invite them to (accept) Islam; if they respond to you, accept it from them and desist from fighting against them…If they refuse to accept Islam, demand from them the Jizya. If they agree to pay, accept it from them and hold off your hands. If they refuse to pay the tax, seek Allah’s help and fight them.”–Sahih Muslim Book 19 Number 4294

    “Abu Umamah narrates: The Prophet said, Allah has sent me as a mercy to the universe and as a guidance to the universe, and my Lord, Who is Great and Glorious, has commanded me to annihilate stringed instruments, wind instruments, idols, crosses and pre-Islamic customs. My Lord, Who is Great and Glorious has sworn, “By My might, none of My servants will drink a mouthful of wine without My giving him a similar amount of pus to drink, but he will not abandon it through fear of Me without My giving him drink from the holy tanks.”"–Jami at-Tirmidhi 3654

    “And fight them until sedition, idolatry, [that] is, exists, no more and religion is all for God, alone, none other being worshipped; then if they desist, from unbelief, surely God sees what they do, and will requite them for it.”–Tafsir al-Jalalayn “Surat al-Anfal [Q 8]”

    “This points to what is meant by justice, and that it should be based on the rulings that Allaah has prescribed, which include the ultimate justice and fairness. Anything contrary to that is injustice and wrongdoing.”–Shaykh ‘Abd al-Rahmaan al-Sa’di, Tafseer al-Sa’di p. 234

    “Narrated Musab: I asked my father, “Was the Verse:– ‘Say: (O Muhammad) Shall We tell you the greatest losers in respect of their deeds?’(18.103) revealed regarding Al-Haruriyya?” He said, “No, but regarding the Jews and the Christians, for the Jews disbelieved Muhammad and the Christians disbelieved in Paradise and say that there are neither meals nor drinks therein. Al- Hururiyya are those people who break their pledge to Allah after they have confirmed that they will fulfill it, and Sad used to call them ‘Al-Fasiqin (evildoers who forsake Allah’s obedience).”–Sahih Bukhari Volume 6 Book 60 Number 252

    “So fight them until there is no more shirk, and none is worshipped except Allaah alone with no partner or associate, and trials and calamities, which are disbelief and polytheism, are lifted from the slaves of Allaah on earth, and religion is all for Allaah alone, and so that obedience and worship will be devoted to Him alone and none else.”–Muhammad ibn Jarir al-Tabari

    “After the death of Muhammad, the man of the miracle [the Qur'an] and the apostle of truth and the companions, fearing the weakening of Islam, the decrease of the number of its followers, and the return of masses to their previous infidelity, saw that holy war and invading other countries for the sake of Allah, smashing the faces of the infidels with the sword and making people enter the religion of Allah as the most worthy of all tasks and better than all sciences.”–Abū Ḥāmid Muḥammad ibn Muḥammad al-Ghazālī

    “The prophet…ordered us to strike with this (meaning the sword), who strays from this (meaning the Quran).”–Jaabir bin Abdullah

    Chomsky should really, really, really stick to linguistics and leave the study of history and philosophy and politics up to people like me (and if that sounds arrogant, so be it!)…

    From my experience, Jack’s at $2.50 a pop, is the most bang for the buck; and if money is no object I go with DiGiorno at $7 each (but the extra $4.50 seems to go more to quantity than quality).

    What excellent, frozen, cheap, mass-produced pizzas am I missing?

    As if the response to the Gulf disaster from the federal government hasn’t been bad enough, now this:

    Feds taking the weekend off in oil fight?

    One local official is voicing his frustration over what he calls a “nine-to-five” attitude by some federal authorities in the face of the oil disaster.

    Jefferson Councilman Chris Roberts says the parish has a plan to build rock levees to help keep oil out of inland waterways like Barataria Bay.

    Roberts told WWL First News that after they submitted the proposal to the Army Corps of Engineers last week, Corps officials said last Friday that discussion on the plan would have to be put on hold until the following Monday, because the Corps office would be closed for the weekend.

    This is what happens when you rely on government to respond.

    European Union Now Warns of Civil War and the Return of Dictatorships in Europe

    by Udo Ulfkotte

    At a meeting of union leaders, EU Commission President Jose Manuel Barroso warned of apocalyptic conditions. He said, if the financial resources made available to bankrupt EU countries should not be sufficient, (which was foreseeable), there would soon be civil wars and possibly military putsches in the EU. Barroso told the visibly shocked union leaders: In countries like Greece, Spain and Portugal, democracy would very quickly be a thing of the past. Dictatorship would return. In some states, a military putsch would be a threat. The danger of civil wars in some countries would become more likely, because coffers would be empty, but citizens would want a continuation of their accustomed social services.

    So, EU de-facto despotism will eventually result in not only the dissolution of the EU as a result of internecine warfare, but de-jure and de-facto authoritarian governments will arise in each of the former member states…

    Swell, especially when it comes from the mouth of an EU official…

    I’m reposting my comment from the last thread ‘cuz you’re all here and i want you to see it cuz some dumbfuck keeps screeching that i’m a mccain lover (no, not here).

    ——————————————————-

    Arizonas airwaves have been inundated with negative attack ads by the same john mccain who refused to go negative on obama. mccain is a despicable, evil, open borders (don’t let his 2010 stance fool you; we don’t call him McAmnesty for nothing), la raza loving, terrorist believing (“we have to close gitmo cuz a terrorist told me they use abu ghraib as a recruiting tool”), arrogant, cheating, manipulative bastard. again, no need to ask me what i really think.

    there is a GREAT article in the Tucson Citizen about this

    McCain urged to let go, retire (yeah, like in CA)

    The difference in style between the rabid leftist pit-bull that McCain hired from Al Gore and the steady conservative Mark Sanders of the Hayworth campaign is stark.

    John McCain lost to Barack Obama because he would not “go negative”. McCain praised Obama in public telling the American people we had nothing to fear from him. Any question of Obama’s fitness to be president by any reporter was marginalized and smeared as “wacko right wing extremism”. McCain pandered to the left and abandoned his conservative base. He wooed and schmoozed as much of the one world progressive PAC money as he could get his hands on. McCain is loved by the left, the progressives and every intellectual elitist snob journalist East of Albuquerque. But it doesn’t play well in Arizona, particularly Southern Arizona.

    —————–

    yeah, that mccain shit doesn’t play well with Conservatives anywhere in Arizona. the only people i know who are voting for him are too stupid to figure out that he flip flopped on border security for the election year or too lazy to educate themselves on the shit he has attempted to foist upon us over the years. case in point, these morons don’t know what mccain-feingold even means. idiots. they should all move to CA or IL.

    So now which party is the Party of No?

    Dems reject GOP compromise on unemployment benefits, go on vacation

    Congress adjourns this week for the July Fourth recess without having passed a bill to extend unemployment insurance benefits to 1.3 million people who started losing them this month.

    Democrats have been painting Republicans as unsympathetic to the long-term unemployed who will be unable to collect benefits, but Democratic leaders have rejected several offers by the GOP to vote for the bill if at least some of it is paid for.

    “My concern is that the Democrats are more interested in having this issue to demagogue for political gamesmanship than they are in simply passing the benefits extension,” said Sen. George Voinovich, R-Ohio, who offered a deal that was rejected by Sen. Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev.

    Costco makes a gigantic deluxe pizza, probably 20″, for $9.99. You cook it at home and it just fits in the oven. It feeds a family of 4, even if 2 of them are teenagers. Quality is middling to good. My kids don’t notice.

    Good. If you aren’t a law abiding citizen or legal resident of this country or a tourist legally admitted to this country (and your visa hasn’t expired), then stay the hell out!

    If you’re one of the uninformed fools who voted for the members of the city councils and state legislatures and school boards which have been voting for Resolutions in opposition to AZ SB 1070 or, if you can’t be bothered to both educate yourself and actually vote, then you stay the hell out too until you vote those idiots out.

    If you’re a pothead or user of other illicit drugs which come across the border, you’re part of the problem so you stay the hell out too.

    Hirer of illegals? You stay the hell out too!

    Think the ACLU travel warnings are worth listening to? You stay the hell out too!

    Don’t like my attitude? You stay the hell out too!

    Frozen pizza has to be DiGiornio or Freschetta. The upscale ones, like Calif Pizza Kitchen and Kashi and Amy’s just arent much better for the price. Kashi does have a vegertaian whole wheat crust variety that is good, but expensive and small.

    i love deep dish pizza and don’t particularly care for lasagna. they are definitely different. if the pizza dough is “doughy” (which I think means gooey and undercooked), then of course it’s icky. that’s just wrong. the pizza dough must be cooked through.

    Kids don’t care about quality, only quantity. When one grows up and has to work to buy things do little trifles like price and quality start to matter.

    Alleged Russian spies were top of class at UW

    SEATTLE – A Seattle couple’s studies at the University of Washington may have helped them in their roles as alleged Russian spies working in the U.S.

    Michael Zotolli and Patricia Mills were among 11 people arrested by the FBI, accused of being sleeper agents for Russia. Sources close to the investigation say the suspects were dedicated to spending decades in the U.S.

    Zotolli and Mills studied finance at UW’s Bothell campus, perhaps to begin climbing the social ladder that would eventually give them access to sensitive information.

    “I could not distinguish them from any of my other students outside of their charm and personality,” said UW finance professor Yfuk Ince. “Pleasant. Charming. Smiling. Engaged and well-performing students.”

    Spies at the UW would have been welcomed with open arms if they had applied openly.

    The best pizza I ever had, believe it or not, was in my grammar school cafeteria in New Orleans. Deep dish pizza, none of that portion control garbage that tries to pass for edibles in schools now.
    That was back in the day when school cafeteria workers ACTUALLY cooked and baked the meals for students.

    This was at a public school (Lakeview School) too! The school is slowly disintegrating from neglect since Katrina. The NOLA school board left the windows open and didn’t patch the few small holes in the roof caused by the hurricane. That is a big no-no in the high humidity and rainfall we get here.

    In NYC – Ray’s Pizza on West 11th Street and Sixth Avenue – thick soft crust and very cheesy. For whole pies (they do not serve individual slices it is V & T’s Italian Restaurant on W. 111th Street and Amsterdam Avenue (thin crust and a lot of cheeses) across the street from St. John the Divine Cathedral.

    There’s a franchise bread place here called ‘Great Harvest Bread’. Years ago, they made a cracked pepper Parmesan bread that I think would have made an incredible pizza crust (you’d probably get 3-4 crusts from the dough from 1 loaf). Top that with some BBQ sauce, add some BBQ pulled chicken (like Curley’s) and you’d have a great dinner.

But if the total uprooting of idolatry is not possible owing to the firm roots of kufr and the large number of kãfirs and mushriks (infidels and idolaters), the kings should at least strive to insult, disgrace, dishonour and defame the mushrik and idol-worshipping Hindus, who are the worst enemies of God and the Prophet. The symptom of the kings being the protectors of religion is this:- When they see a Hindu, their eyes grow red and they wish to bury him alive; they also desire to completely uproot the Brahmans, who are the leaders of kufr and shirk and owning to whom kufr and shirk are spread and the commandments of kufr are enforced…Owing to the fear and terror of the kings of Islam, not a single enemy of God and the Prophet can drink water that is sweet or stretch his legs on his bed and go to sleep in peace.”—Ziauddin Barani’s Tãrîkh-i-Fîruzshãhî

    “If Mahmud…had gone to India once more, he would have brought under his sword all the Brahmans of Hind who, in that vast land, are the cause of the continuance of the laws of infidelity and of the strength of idolators; he would have cut off the heads of two or three hundred thousand Hindu chiefs. He would not have returned his Hindu-slaughtering sword to its scabbard until the whole of Hind had accepted Islam. For Mahmud was a Shafiite, and according to Imam Shafii the decree for Hindus is Islam or death, that is to say, they should either be put to death or accept Islam. It is not lawful to accept jiziya from Hindus who have neither a prophet nor a revealed book.”—Ziauddin Barani’s Fatwa-i-Jahãndãri

    “The whole country by means of the sword of our holy warriors has become like a forest denuded of its thorns by fire. The land has been saturated by the waters of the sword, and the vapours of infidelism [Hinduism] have been dispersed. The strong men of Hind have been trodden under foot, and all are ready to pay tribute. Islam is triumphant, idolatry is subdued. Had not the law (of Hanifa) granted exemption from death by the payment of jiziya, the very name of Hind, root and branch, would have been extinguished.”—Amir Khusru’s Khazãin-ul-Futûh (Tãrîkh-i-Alã)

    Heh! My father used to sell Flymos when they were manufactured in North America by Toro. The deck was made of molded fiberglass, and was a lot lighter than the injection-molded plastic of the Swedish ones. As a result, they really could fly hover quite well.

    The groundskeepers at the south approach to the Second Narrows bridge in Vancouver, B.C. used to tie a pair of ropes to a Flymo, and swing it in huge arcs, while standing at the top of a steep grass-covered slope. They could get it done in much less time than any previous way permitted. The slop was too steep for any kind of riding mower.

    Without pepperoni, there is no pizza. For me, it’s all about the pepperoni. And it needs to be cooked until the pepperoni stats to curl up slightly and get a little crunchy around the edges.

    And Brooklyn style thin crust is the best. Never been a “deep dish” guy. Every once and a while I will get a “Chicago style” just to remind myself why I prefer the Brooklyn.

    Tonight it’ll be either Venezia’s or Mafia Mikes for me. Hmmm…decisions decisions!
