140 characters isn’t enough room to have this discussion. @jonarnold noted today: Love this Bloomberg speech in reference to the NYC Mosque at Ground Zero. Incredible job.

TRUE FACT #2: The ‘Rigatoni D’ at Maggiano’s Little Italy restaurant is the best pasta dish ever. That said, I set out this weekend with one goal in mind: to recreate Maggiano’s [ READ MORE ]
