Is Bakers Square going out of business. I have seen at least two stores in our area closing down. Their service did stink there. We visited quite a lot. There was always something wrong with our orders. Also, take out was awful.

A leading Italian-American group is accusing Spike Lee of having anti-Italian tendencies amid the flap between the director and Clint Eastwood over a lack of African-Americans in Eastwood's World War II films. "Spike Lee is very talented, but I sometimes wish he'd practice what he preaches," said Bill Dal Cerro, president of the Italic Institute of America, according to The Hollywood Reporter. "His points about African-Americans are well taken, but, ironically, he does the same thing to Italians in his films." The group has criticized Lee in the past for his portrayal of Italian-Americans in "Do the Right Thing" and "Jungle Fever," and has expressed worry about "Miracle at St. Anna," Lee's upcoming World War II drama set in Italy.
