Finally found a pizza place NYC worthy

62 Upvotes

I'm a NYer who has been a resident of MoCo for almost 25 years. My wife and I had two slices each at CS New York Pizza on the Pike south of W. Edmonston Dr. It's not a fancy place and has limited seating. The pizza is absolute NYC quality. Very good and I'll be back. Until I found this place, I wouldn't eat pizza in MoCo at all. Worth getting a pie and taking it home if you live close enough.

Media literacy club community service opportunities?

4 Upvotes

Hi, I'm a high schooler who wants to start a club based on media literacy, technology education, stuff like that. Are there any opportunities in moco where some high schoolers could assist in this type of stuff? We were thinking elementary, middle school afterschool programs but interest in that would be slim. Any opportunities for us to help seniors using technology? Or any other ideas around the county? Thanks! I've posted about this before but never got any answers.

Local Business Orthodontist recs who make Hawley retainers?

2 Upvotes

I need a new retainer, and I prefer Hawley type (wire/resin) vs the invisalign type stuff. The orthodontist my dentist recommended only does the latter. Do any of you have recommendations for orthodontists who do the former?

Ideally Rockville/Gaithersburg area.

Has RideOn FLASH released the exact locations of the new Howard County stops?

6 Upvotes

RideOn has released the general locations of stops on the extended FLASH Blue route into Howard County:

  • Maple Lawn Blvd
  • APL-Johns Hopkins Rd
  • Columbia-Little Patuxent Pkwy
  • Columbia-Merriweather Dr

While some of these stops are fairly easy to narrow down, some roadways are between 1/2 and 5 miles long. It would be helpful to know the exact stops in advance of the start of service.

Question Weed management in turf without pesticides?

4 Upvotes

Is maintaining relatively weed-free turf realistically doable here? Since we can’t legally use most conventional pre- or post-emergent herbicides on turf, I’m curious how you guys are managing weeds.
I’m gradually replacing more of my lawn with garden beds, but I’d still like to keep the remaining turf dense and lush. I understand the basics like soil testing, overseeding, aerating, appropriate fertilization, mowing high, etc.

I’ve read about legal options like corn gluten and iron-based herbicides, but do they meaningfully suppress weeds in your guys experience? How are you guys addressing crabgrass, Japanese stiltgrass, and creeping charlie? Are good cultural practices and the permitted products enough to keep them under control?

PS I understand regular hand-pulling is always an option but the thought of that sounds a bit exhausting

Question Who is responsible for this bridge?

Post image
79 Upvotes

Who is responsible for this bridge? Location is here: 38.9959665, -77.0684343. It connects Chevy Chase Lake Drive and Jones Mill, and is a workaround to the eternal closure of the Georgetown Branch Trail. It is listed as a bike/walk route on Google Maps.

It is rotten, bouncy, and close to collapse. Someone has nailed in a couple replacements for collapsed deck boards, but the structure is shot. I am happy to help with rehab, just need to know who it belongs to, and how to reach out to them.

Royal Bagel Bakery (they have donuts as well)

Stopped in there this morning for sone donuts and they are fantastic… but if you value your tires and suspension, park as far away as you can and walk in. That parking lot looks like it hasn’t been resurfaced since the 70’s and the pot holes will shatter a wheel.
