Metzeler dual sport motorcycle tires in multiple sizes with the best prices.
David in IL
I put a set of the classic Metzler Tourances on my 07 Vstrom 1000 and rode to Prudhoe Bay from Washington State. The tires worked very well on the road and worked OK on the Dalton up to Prudhoe Bay. Lots of rain and slick mud and I never fell on my ass once. Not as good as more aggressive knobby tires off road but a good compromise when majority of riding is on pavement. If you can change to Knobbies in Fairbanks it would be ideal but I didn't.

Iv'e got about 3k miles out of this, (which I consider good) it has good traction in the gravel, as well as the road, buit they howl on the road! Good tire, I'm going to try the Dunlop 606 next, and hope for less raod vibration.

I love this tire for the BMW R1150GS. I always look at the other alternatives when it's time to replace another set, and I always go back to the Tourance. They get me where I want to go within reason, and I'm getting 12-15K out of a rear tire and 20k+ out of a front.

University of Wisconsin-Parkside Chancellor Debbie Ford would like to see the success of one citizen advisory panel repeated elsewhere on campus. Meeting Thursday, April 26, with the School of Business and Technology (SBT) Advisory Board, Ford said, "This board is a model we would like to replicate in our other colleges," referring to UW-Parkside's new four college structure. "It is important for each of our colleges to have the kind of strong leadership you, as board members, have shown."
The UW-Parkside School of Business and Technology will become the College of Business, Economics, and Computing in fall semester 2012. SBT Dean Dr. Fred Ebeid called the Economics Department "an important, and helpful, addition to the SBT." The Economics Department is currently part of the College of Arts and Sciences.
Recognition of Students
Advisory Board members had the chance to meet several student stars of the School of Business and Technology during the meeting when they were recognized for their award-winning scholarship. Board members received a project presentation from Chris McMahon and Trevor Severson on their research titled "Improving Health Care Delivery in the Department of Corrections." The project has drawn interest from state legislators and administrators for its potential to save significant amount sof taxpayer dollars.
The SBT also recognized new UW System Regent Tracy Hribar. Hribar, a UW-Parkside Business major, was appointed the system's non-traditional student regent by Gov. Scott Walker earlier this month. More information on Ms. Hribar's appointment is available on the university web site.
Other students recognized during Thursday's meeting included Dana Berglind and Nicole Zach who were recently honored by the Milwaukee Chapter of
Financial Executives International, David Sieraski who received a scholarship from the Wisconsin Chapter of the Society for Information Management, Joseph Cronin, a recent graduate who received the Racine Downtown Champion Award; and UW-Parkside Outstanding Graduate Award winner Sierra West.
"I had a number of advisory board members who came up to me after the meeting and said they couldn't believe how much the SBT has done since our last meeting in January," said Dean Ebeid. "One of them said we are really progressing as an institution and that he was impressed by the people who are currently on the SBT Advisory Board."
Early in Thursday's meeting, the board's membership got even stronger with the addition of UW-Parkside graduate James Kettinger. Kettinger is president and CEO of Kenosha-based equipment manufacturer IEA, Inc. He will be honored during UW-Parkside's May 12 commencement ceremony as the university's Distinguished Alumni Achievement Award recipient. Kettinger served as SBT's Executive In Residence during spring semester 2012.
The meeting closed with a changing of the guard. The SBT honored Jerry Uick upon the completion of his two years of service as Advisory Board Chair. He hands leadership of the board to new chair, and UW-Parkside graduate, John Schoenwaelder.

Levin visits Afghanistan & Turkey
The U.S. Senate Armed Services Committee says Chairman Carl Levin and member Jack Reed are visiting Afghanistan, Turkey and NATO headquarters in Belgium starting this weekend.
The committee announced the trip Sunday by the two Democratic lawmakers. Levin is from Michigan and Reed is from Rhode Island.
The email announcement says the senators are making the trip "to get a firsthand look at security and political developments in the region and their impact on America's national security." It says Levin and Reed "will meet with high-ranking foreign leaders, diplomats, and American military commanders, civilian personnel, as well as soldiers from Michigan and Rhode Island" who are serving overseas.
The announcement says the senators were leaving over the weekend and returning the following week

Two weeks ago, safety Rahim Moore was replaced in the starting lineup by fellow rookie Quinton Carter.
This week, Carter is recovering from a concussion he suffered against the Lions and Moore is prepared to return to the starting lineup.
"We gave Quinton Carter an opportunity, and when Quinton went down, Rahim got another opportunity," Head Coach John Fox said. "We feel very good about both of them. They're both rookies that improve with every opportunity they get."
Sunday's game in Oakland is just that – another opportunity for Moore to prove himself.
And it was his recent removal from the starting lineup provided added motivation to get better and served as a reminder that he can handle adversity.
"Nothing's going to be easy," Moore said. "You're going to go through some trials and tribulations, but it shows you how tough you are, how much you love the game and how much you want to help win. It doesn't matter whether you're on the field, the sidelines — it doesn't matter what the case is — you can help in some way, and I try to get better every day and keep a positive attitude around here, because that's what we need."
When asked which areas of his game need improvement, Moore answered: "everything."
The young safety said he thrives on film sessions, where he can see and correct his mistakes, and he insists his workmanlike approach won't change — regardless of his role from week to week.
"I'm one of those guys that stays hungry; I always stay with a chip on my shoulder," Moore said. "I've had previous situations when I was younger where people told me I'd never be anything in life, and look where I am now.
"I give it all I got in situations like this."

McDonough police arrested a woman following a reported shoot-out with her around 10:30 Saturday morning. Theresa Singletary, 42, was treated for a gunshot wound at Henry Medical Center before being booked into Henry County Jail on aggravated assault charges. McDonough police Chief Preston Dorsey could not be reached for comment following the incident. However, officers at the scene said Singletary forced her way into a home at 4128 Springvale Lane in the City Square subdivision near the intersection of Ga. Highway 155 and Racetrack Road. McDonough Police Lt. Jeff Floyd said Singletary lives across the street and had made several phone calls to the house at 4128 Springvale and to 911 that morning. Police said they believed Singletary to be suicidal. During a heated argument, Singletary reportedly came through the front door of the home firing three shots, Floyd said. She briefly held the homeowner at gunpoint and barricaded herself inside. Police entered the home and found the victim inside holding her dog. They heard shots and believed the shots were directed at them so police pulled out of the home with the victim. Officers with McDonough and Henry County Bureau of Police Services set up a perimeter around the home. Floyd said Singletary then reportedly tried to leave the home by way of a car in the garage. As she backed out, officers said Singletary fired at them. Two McDonough police officers and one Henry County officer returned fire. Singletary's left arm was grazed by a bullet. She was taken to Henry Medical Center. No one else was reported hurt during the morning incident. The Georgia Bureau of Investigation has been called to investigate, and agents have reportedly interviewed the suspect and victim. The two McDonough officers are no administrative leave with pay, a procedural non-disciplinary action pending the outcome of the case, Floyd said. Information on the Henry County officer involved was not available. Singletary is charged with aggravated assault on a police officer, and more charges are expected to follow. She is expected to make her first appearance in Henry Magistrate Court Monday morning. "She wasn't going to give up without a fight," Floyd said. "Luckily no one was hurt. There were so many bullets flying."More like this story

Asymptote, one of the prettiest (and smartest) online magazines, has a new issue out to kick off the new year, and it's pretty packed with interesting material:
For one, we got to talk to our favorite Francophile, Edmund White, about why Proust is "a more profound psychologist than Freud". We also have an excerpt from the new novel by Amélie Nothomb, the Belgian phenom behind Fear and Trembling; Life Form is about yet another cultural clash—this time with an American soldier in Iraq. But perhaps we are proudest of bringing you the first ever English translation from Toh EnJoe's 2012 Akutagawa Prize-winning novel, Harlequin's Butterflies. In the fascinating interview Toh also granted us, the Physics PhD elaborates on his "un-local novels", and how we must cherish the ability to enjoy strange things.
I'm particularly interested in Harlequin's Butterfly, especially after reading this note from Sim Yee Chiang and Sayuri Okamoto about the translation:
Harlequin's Butterfly is a complex work in which (to give one out of any number of possible summaries) the entanglement of idea ('butterfly') and praxis ('net') is told and retold from multiple perspectives, making it all the more deserving of the Akutagawa Prize. The first chapter, presented in its entirety in this extract (along with the introduction of the second chapter for clarity's sake), forms the comedic version of the tale, and is dominated by the imposing figure—a veritable Pantalone—of A. A. Abrams. To translate humour is treacherous enough, but to recreate Abrams' American English from a Japanese translation of a Latino sine inflexione rendering of his original English? Straining our ears, we managed to catch echoes of Clare Quilty.
And the opening—although maybe a bit too goofy at first (calls to mind Calvino, but the handstand joke falls flat, in my opinion)—is pretty mesmerizing:
Books that may only be read while traveling would be nice.
Books that may also be read while traveling are boring. For every thing, there must be a right time and place. A book suited for reading anywhere and anytime is nothing more than a half-baked sham.
This book, without a doubt, takes the form of A Book To Be Read In Two Minutes While Doing A Handstand and has indeed been made for the express purpose of handstand reading. Its significance cannot be fully grasped via non-handstand reading. You can open the book normally and follow the words on the page, but the feeling is nothing compared to the sensation of actually finishing the book while standing on your hands. The story ingeniously employs the rush of blood to the head. By adapting this principle, Revelations That Come In The Thick Of Anger and the like can be created easily.
This happens during a flight between Tokyo and Seattle. The copy of Confession To Someone With Three Arms that I have purchased from the kiosk sits on my lap. I try flipping through it, but as usual nothing sticks in my mind. It might be the flight speed, but the letters seem to lag ever so slightly behind the page, scrambling to catch up. Absorbed by their movements, I am only able to see a mass of print; I am utterly distracted.
At this stage, I give up the pointless struggle and start to think about books that make use of the movements of letters. Every time I travel, the same thing happens. I stuff two or three books in my bag, even buy additional books during the trip, but strangely, I have yet to get very far in any of them.
The ability to convert these vague feelings into wealth instead of words is called business sense.
While no multimillionaire, it is by listening to such fancies as these that Mr. A. A. Abrams amasses a respectable fortune.
This all happens during a flight between Tokyo and Seattle.
Mr. Abrams is a man who is continually onboard planes, without having any particular destination. Flying is his business, and so he flies as much as he can, staying in hotels near airports when forced to remain on land. He is neither flight attendant nor pilot, just a traveler with nowhere to go.
Be sure and check it all out.
Though far from the most convincing reason to read literature in translation, one common side effect is learning of another culture, of its history. Within that, and a stronger motivation to read, is the discovery of stories not possible within. . .
Despite cries that literature is dead, dying, and self-replicating in the worst way, once in a while a book comes along to remind readers that there's still a lot of surprise to be found on the printed page. To be. . .

Think back to the last adventure- or action-type book you read. Wasn't it cool? Didn't it make you want to do things, like learn to shoot a crossbow, hack complicated information systems, travel to strange worlds, take on knife-wielding thugs,. . .
In Aira's Shantytown, while we're inside the characters' heads for a good portion of the story, the voice we read on the page is really that of Aira himself, as he works out the plot of the book he's writing.. . .
Noir is not an easy genre to define—or if it once was, that was a long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away; as a quick guess, maybe Silver Lake, Los Angeles, 1935. When two books as different as. . .

Abstract: Liver diseases, such as hepatitis C virus (HCV), are "broken spirit" diseases. The prevalence of HCV infection for American Indian/Alaskan Native (AI/AN) in the United States and Canadian Aboriginals varies; nonetheless, incidence rates of newly diagnosed HCV infection are typically higher relative to non-indigenous people. For AI/AN and Aboriginal peoples risk factors for the diagnosis of HCV can reflect that of the general population: predominately male, a history of injection drug use, in midlife years, with a connection with urban centers. However, the face of the indigenous HCV infected individual is becoming increasingly female and younger compared to non-indigenous counterparts. Epidemiology studies indicate that more effective clearance of acute HCV infection can occur for select Aboriginal populations, a phenomenon which may be linked to unique immune characteristics. For individuals progressing to chronic HCV infection treatment outcomes are comparable to other racial cohorts. Disease progression, however, is propelled by elevated rates of co-morbidities including type 2 diabetes and alcohol use, along with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) co-infection relative to non-indigenous patients. Historical and personal trauma has a major role in the participation of high risk behaviors and associated diseases. Although emerging treatments provide hope, combating HCV related morbidity and mortality will require interventions that address the etiology of broken spirit diseases.

From the Guardian
By Suzanne Goldenberg
Comatose iguanas have been dropping from the trees and pythons have frozen to death in their tracks in Florida's unusually harsh winter, wildlife officials said today.
Parts of the Sunshine State saw their second snowfall of the season this weekend, with the extended cold spells killing off a host of tropical intruders, including iguanas, Burmese and African pythons and invasive fish.
State wildlife officials said more than half of the green iguanas, which are native to South America, could have been killed off. "The iguanas up in the trees just got so cold, they kind of went very, very sluggish, and just fell down," said Jenny Tinnell, a biologist with Florida's Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission.

Montgomery County construction project to stifle traffic
BETHESDA, Md. (AP) - Traffic in lower Montgomery County will become even worse in the coming months when a roadwork construction project gets under way.
The Washington Post reports that in a few weeks, work will begin in a key part of Rockville Pike and Connecticut Avenue in Bethesda and Chevy Chase.
Officials say they will be adding mostly turn lanes and short segments of lanes to move traffic through intersections more quickly (http://tinyurl.com/7pabxl2).
The changes will help accommodate traffic from the expanded Walter Reed National Military Medical Center.
Officials say drivers should expect delays but that all lanes will remain open in the peak direction during rush hour.
Officials also plan to begin a two-year tunneling project under Rockville Pike in fall 2013 for elevators near the military hospital and a pedestrian tunnel.

Latest on the Goverment's proposals for Special Educational Needs reform - The Government moves forward with it's green paper plans
Blind and partially sighted campaigners in the North East have been steadfast in their support for protests against the threatened loss to peoples' income under the new Personal Independence Payment.
DB Regio, who operate the Tyne and Wear Metro concession, have rolled out vision awareness training to frontline staff across the network. This means blind or partially sighted travellers can be assured that there will be an understanding of their needs from the people there to help them safely get from A to B across Tyneside and Wearside.
RNIB responds to a Green Paper published on Special Educational Needs (SEN) and support for children with disabilities In March the Government published the Green Paper "Support and Aspiration: A new approach to special educational needs and disability".
Congratulations to RNIB Volunteer Campaigner Claire Parker who has made it through to the interview stage for the Speakers Parliamentary Placement Scheme.
The Children and Families Bill is set to change the provision of educational services for those with Special Educational Needs. find out more about our campaign
South Tyneside local, Peter Bennetts, talks about how becoming an RNIB volunteer campaign co-ordinator helped him lead a strong campaign in his area to push for fair benefit reforms. Get involved today.
A number of RNIB campaigners have been nominated for Sheila McKechnie Awards this year. These awards recognise the work done by people to create sustainable solutions to social, economic and environmental issues, and winners are offered extra support to help them work more effectively to achieve the change they work for.
We campaigned to prevent a twelve-month time limit restricting the length of time someone can claim contributory Employment and Support Allowance but it came into effect in April 2012. We now need to hear how you've been affected.
The BBC have reported that the National Audit Office have found weaknesses in the contract between the Department for Work and Pension and the company that carries out Employment and Support Allowance assessments. Only a root and branch overhaul of the descriptors will produce both a fairer test for benefit claimants and lower contract costs for the Government.
On 30 April the second of London's 'swap with me' events took place in Merton, thanks to the efforts of the local society Mertonvision.
On 27 March 2013 the Eye Pod Sight Loss Simulator came to Merton Civic Centre where we engaged with councillors and members of the public giving them an insight into RNIB's work to prevent avoidable sight loss. We were pleased to be joined by the Chief Executive of Merton Vision at the event.
Vince Cable MP and Cllr Stephen Knight joined blind and partially sighted residents from Richmond as they swapped places with bus drivers as part of the Stop for Me, Speak to Me bus campaign
In 2013 we're stepping up our social care campaign and wanted to find out from our campaigners how you think we should do it.
On Wednesday 23 January RNIB's Eye Pod came to Ealing giving councillors and members of the public a chance to view a simulation of the four most common eye conditions and learn more about avoidable sight loss.

Sci. STKE, 6 November 2001 PERSPECTIVESMelatonin Receptor Signaling: Finding the Path Through the DarkMonica I. Masana1 and Margarita L. Dubocovich2
1Department of Molecular Pharmacology and Biological Chemistry, Northwestern University Medical School, Chicago, IL 60611, USA. Abstract: Melatonin, dubbed "the hormone of darkness," is involved in relaying photoperiodic information to the organism. Not only is melatonin involved in the regulation of circadian rhythms and sleep, but it also has roles in visual, cerebrovascular, reproductive, neuroendocrine, and neuroimmunological functions. Melatonin mediates its effects through G protein-coupled receptors: MT1, MT2, and, possibly, MT3. Pharmacological agents have been instrumental in identifying these receptor types. Masana and Dubocovich discuss how the level of receptor expression may alter their efficacy, so that caution is necessary when extrapolating the pharmacological properties of ligands defined on recombinant systems to the receptors in the organism. With these cautions in mind, they describe the various signaling pathways and physiological roles ascribed to the three melatonin receptor types. Corresponding author: Department of Molecular Pharmacology and Biological Chemistry (S-215), Northwestern University Medical School, 303 E. Chicago Avenue, Chicago, IL 60611, USA.

Calculation in kind
Calculation in kind or calculation in natura is a form of resource valuation and method of accounting based on disaggregated physical magnitudes and quantities as opposed to a common unit. Calculation in kind was often described as the method of accounting and form of calculation that would supersede money and financial calculation in a socialist economy.
As a replacement for financial calculation, calculation in kind would embody more accurate information about a particular resource/objects value than valuation in terms of money by dispensing with the exchange value inherent to all commodities in money-based economies so that only an object's use value would remain as the basis for economic accounting. Under such a system, an object would only be desired for its utility without being subject to the distortions of financial calculation - for example, an object would not be desired only for the sake of resale and speculative purposes.[1]
Calculation in kind is advocated as a method to directly quantify the utility of a resource or object, but is contrasted with other proposed forms of calculation and valuation for socialism, such as calculation in terms of labor-time, energy accounting or financial calculation.
Calculation in kind was strongly supported by the positivist philosopher and political economist Otto Neurath in opposition to advocates of market socialism and Austrian school critics of economic planning.[2] Calculation in kind is also advocated by the World Socialist Movement as a characteristic of a fully developed socialist economy.
See also[edit]
- ^ The Alternative to Capitalism. Retrieved July 05, 2010, from wspus.org "The disappearance of economic value would mean the end of economic calculation in the sense of calculation in units of value whether measured by money or directly in some unit of labour-time. It would mean that there was no longer any common unit of calculation for making decisions regarding the production of goods...Calculation in kind is an essential aspect of the production of goods in any society, including capitalism. A commodity is, as we saw, a good which by virtue of being produced for sale has acquired in addition to its physical use value a socially-determined exchange value. Correspondingly, the process of production under capitalism is both a process of production of exchange values and a process of production of use values, involving two different kinds of calculation. For the former, the unit of calculation is money, but for the latter there is no single unit but a whole series of different units for measuring the quantity and quality of specific goods used in the process of producing other specific goods (tonnes of steel, kilowatt-hours of electricity, person-hours of work and so on). The disappearance of economic or value calculation in socialism would by no means involve the disappearance of all rational calculation, since the calculations in kind connected with producing specific quantities of goods as physical use values would continue."

A word from The Blue Pig Tavern
The Blue Pig Tavern serves American cuisine-nostalgic, simple and fresh. Executive Chef Jeremy Einhorn has implemented a delicious farm-to-table menu featuring fresh produce, herbs and eggs from our very own Beach Plum Farm, located less than 2 miles from the restaurant!
In the warmer
months, dine on our wonderful, secluded patio. In the cooler months, cozy up to our magnificent dining room fireplace. The Blue Pig Tavern drives its name from a gambling parlor sited at Congress Hall in the mid 1800's. Earlier still, in the 1700s, Elias Hughes operated a tavern for whalers on this site. It was the first tavern in Cape May.

Great for a quiet Sunday night and
comfort food, after a discounted Belvedere martini in the Brown Room. Tremendous Trinity Oaks Pinot Noir for only $8"
Dined on 3/2/2014
Came to Cape May for some R&R,
chose Blue Pig for casual dining and eclectic menu. We started off with some house specialty drinks - the Blind Pig and a Blue Pig Martini. For dinner I chose the Blue Plate special Fish & Chips. Th meal came with their soup of the day which was 'Beef Stroganoff'. The soup was interesting - a lighter take on actual beef stroganoff - but not great. The fish was lightly battered and fried, not greasy at all and very mild haddock flavor. I found it very tasty. The fries were plentiful, but not as crisp as I like. My wife ordered the duck special and it was delicious. Served with risotto and vegetables the dinner was very satisfying. Overall it was the exact dining experience we were looking for."
Dined on 2/28/2014
My wife, son and I enjoyed a late
Friday dinner and couldn't have been more pleased with the service, food and overall ambience. We dined on oysters and deviled eggs for appetizers (sounds strange but really should try). We had shrimp and grits, mushroom risotto and the kids burger for dinner. All were prepared as requested and tasted fabulous. Very timely waiter made both wine and beer recommendations that were spot on. Congress Hall is such a historic locale and Mathis restaurant is a fantastic compliment."

Blue Pig. The service was good, but the food slightly overpriced and just not too good- bar food at best. Maybe if we had a burger? The steak was overdone, mushy vegetable with the fish. The salads were nice and fresh and generous. It is very noisy so hard to talk. WE LOVE the Brown Room for cocktails and the Boiler Room for music/ late night but we will have to dine somewhere else."

Poor food, too dark, a table the
size of a living room end table. Unatttentative and slow service. WAY overpriced. Ballpark beer prices."

It was a very nice restaurant. We
sat by the fireplace and enjoyed the Victorian surroundings. They had a small but a nice beer list and was told by the waiter that draft beers would soon be added. The food was pricey but enough was served to be worth the money. Service was a bit slow but we weren't in a hurry. My steak was slightly overcooked but was edible. Her salmon dish was not good. She said it was like they put a piece of fish on top of pot roast. The garnish clashed with the fish. The experience was nice but would not go out of my way to return. So many other restaurants to spend $150 in and get better."

My husband and I dined at Blue Pig
Tavern on Monday, President's Day, 2014. I had the stuffed french toast. I love sweets, but this was too sweet. It had strawberries on top, but also strawberry flavored mascarpone stuffing. It was VERY sweet. My husband had the corned beef hash breakfast. It was fresh and delicious. All in all, our breakfast was quite tasty, and I would return to The Blue Pig again for breakfast. Also, it was fun to walk around the lobby area and hallway of Congress Hall, after breakfast, and read about the hotel's history."

The Caesar salad was dank and
drenched in dressing, everything was overly salty, the service was lackluster. Over-priced as well. We won't be back. To top it off, I got an email from Open Table saying that we hadn't kept our reservation. Believe me, I wish we hadn't."

We had a wonderful experience, as
always, at The Bue Pig. Great Food, got the seat we requested (by the fire place) excellent server (Patty). We miss the filet, but the steak frites was outstanding! Oh, the tart, to die for!! See you soon as we purchased the 20% discount dining you recently advertised. Lyn"

Service was slow and unfriendly!
Food was lukewarm and plating was not exciting! My entree was the worst salmon with a mush of veggies with no taste ! Not to mention server never returned to the table to follow up on our food! The plates were never cleared until the server brought the check! I have always wanted to visit the Blue Pig to fine and I was very disappointed! Sorry but I am a foodie that loves great food!"

Came to Cape May a day early to
avoid a major Ferbuary snow storm and the Blue Pig was one of a few restaurants open for dinner. It, like the town was practically empty. The room was so dark we had to use flashlights to read the menu. The waiter was attentive, but failed to deliver. For example he stopped to say, "I'll be back to refill water glasses" no less than 4 times and never did. The food was poor to average and, for some entrees, oversalted. Finally, for a night with few tables filled it took an hour to bring 6 entrees to the table. Nothing about this experience says we should rush to return."
Dined on 2/12/2014
I'm sure that eating outside would
be delightful, however it was 20 degrees when we were there. What impressed me most was that even though the Hotel was not full, and there were only a few diners, ALL of the tables were set with candles glowing! It made for a beautiful atmosphere with the fire roaring and the tables lit in the soft candlelight. It was quite a wonderful evening...and the food was delicious. The starters and appetizers were interesting and we decided to make a meal from them. We look forward to going again."

We arrived in Cape May late Friday
for a mid-winter get-away. The Blue Pig was a great way to start the weekend. A nice wine list and even better beer selection allowed us to decompress from fighting traffic to get there. The PEI Mussels appetizers with sausage was outstanding. The rainbow trout was very good and NY strip good. Service was very good and ambience great. We enjoyed an after dinner drink in the adjoining Brown Room at Congress Hall, listing to a small jazz band. The room was full but not overly crowded and was most enjoyable. The Blue Pig is among our favorite destinations when in Cape May, anytime of year."
Dined on 2/7/2014
Another great restaurant in the
Cape May area, in a very special historic location. Have a drink in the Brown Room before or after dinner. I especially enjoyed the steak frites. Nice choice of wine and beer as well."
Dined on 2/1/2014
We always enjoy our time at the
Blue Pig. The organic, fresh produce from their farm is certainly a plus! We love their outdoor seating in the warm weather and their fireplaces in the winter. Bar is pleasant and a must do for us but can become hectic with the wedding guests. Comfort food is done well as is the fresh seafood. Apple pie is amazing!"

We had a wonderful visit to
Congress Hall where we ate at the Blue Pig Tavern. The food, the atmosphere, our server were all top notch. Thank You for a great evening!!"

The Blue Pig Tavern was a
wonderful spot for dinner in Cape May in January when most restaurants are closed for the season. The food was yummy and the crackling fireplace added the perfect touch to the cozy dining room. I've been there for breakfast in the summer and was glad to find that dinner was just as delightful. The service was wonderful, attentive and friendly."
Dined on 1/16/2014
The restaurant was very quiet due
to being off season. Waitresses were excellent and food and service exceptional. Having sat next to a warm fireplace added to the evening. Highly recommend."
Dined on 1/14/2014
Whether dining outdoors for lunch
in the summer, or indoors for a fine dinner any time of the year, this place is great. You can also just stop for drinks at the bar and soak in the history. We've been here several times and have never been disappointed. It's located in the heart of Cape May, at the sound end of the mall, and provides good food and service in an ambiance that makes Cape May special."
Dined on 10/25/2013
Loved the atmosphere of this
tavern. We sat by the fire with drinks which added to the experience. I had the beat salad and added the grilled salmon. It was terrific and filling. My husband had the burger, which is house ground and prepared. Topped with the local egg, he was very pleased. The placements all spoke to the history of the restaurant. After we could't help but find ourselves at the gift shop buying an ornament with a " Blue Pig" to remember this outing."

This is the third time I have
eaten at the Blue Pig and it is always a pleasant visit. The servers are nice and the food is good. They also have some very tasty cocktails (also at the adjoining Brown Room cocktail lounge) and a great craft beer list."
Dined on 1/3/2014
I have been to the Blue Pig
previously and have been pleased each time I go. Tonight we drove past a few of our usual stops when we visit Cape May, but most were closed for the season or the recent winter storm, not sure which. The Blue Pig had plenty of availability and hit the spot with regard to food and beverage."
Dined on 1/3/2014
Wonderful charm, great food and
fun atmosphere! This restaurant is in the Congress Hall Hotel and its just a fun scene! We stopped for some drinks with live music in the Brown Room (The Blue Pig was passed the Brown room) Our service was really good and the restaurant had a rustic feel to it! We will be back every time we visit Cape May!"

The garden salad is always crisp
and fresh with a light vinagrette. The French Fries are salted too heavily and butter tastes like butter has been added."

I always eat at the blue pig
whenever I'm in Cape May. The food is always amazing and the service is great as well. If you're into oysters you have to try the cape may salts and the deviled eggs with bacon and avocado are to die for."

We had a party of three and all of
us had the blue plate pot roast special. It was delicious. The house salad was beautiful and so tasty. We had a very nice dining experience and we'll eat there again. We had a nice table on the porch. I love when Congress Hall is decorated for Christmas--just beautiful and well done."

We had 8:00 reservations. We were
seated right away. Waiter was nice but hard to understand. We only ordered soup and then appetizers as our main course. Took almost. 1/2 hour to get our soup. Not sure why. Food was good Would come back again"
Dined on 12/28/2013
I'd suggest it to anyone visiting
Cape May. It is located in Congress Hall which is very busy and, as a result, very noisy. If you're looking for a quiet, romantic dining experience, the Blue Pig isn't it. On the other hand, the menu is varied and both the food and the service is good."

We had a great Christmas dinner at
the Blue Pig. The food and the service was excellent. Congress Hall was beautifully decorated"
Dined on 12/25/2013
Great food and atmosphere.
Unfortunately the service left a lot to be desired. For the price that they charge for their meals, you would think that they would be a little more attentive to their customers. We waited at least twenty minutes before being greeted by a waiter, and then after that had to flag him down multiple times for simple things like a refill on our waters. Disappointing experience to say the least."
Dined on 12/21/2013
We went to this restaurant, which
is housed in Congress Hall, an historic hotel, after viewing David Sedaris' "Santa Land Diaries" performance. It's a little pricey, but the food was delicious and our server was excellent. This outing was one half of a wedding anniversary gift. My spouse was pleasantly surprised by my choice for a gift. The hotel had a "Santa Toy Shop" display in back, replete with gifts for purchase and a Santa train for the kiddies. The weather was unseasonably warm, but drizzling. Close by was a mall with gift shops, including an old fashioned 5 and 10 store. The ocean is right outside. I can see that this would be a pleasant restaurant year round. There was also a bar in the hotel with a nice fire going."
Dined on 12/22/2013
Classic American food (meatloaf,
steak, steamed clams, crabcakes etc) in a bustling atmosphere in the restaurant of this lovely hotel by the waterfront. Food was slow in arriving, but service was otherwise attentive, and food was "as expected" with fairly hearty portions. Limited wine list."
Dined on 12/22/2013
We had very tasty burgers here but
they had a lot more with emphasis on their own farm raised produce. Their draft ale was good, as well. Service was attentive without being cloying, even though they were very busy."

My Fiance and I were looking for a
place to eat and found the Blue Pig located in Congress Hall. The decor was romantic and the wood burning fireplace in the room was a nice touch. The food was excellent as we ordered seconds of the appetizers! The price is reasonable as well."

I love that the Blue Pig Tavern
has their own farm. We like to support places that support local farms and use organic fruits and vegetables. You can immediately taste the difference! The food tastes amazing and fresh. I would highly recommend it for any occasion. It is great to see that they have their own farm and we look forward to our next visit. We find it hard to go anywhere else."

The husband absolutely loves these! Works great for keeping your drink cool, or if you just bought the spirit, it helps bring it to and keep it at a great temp. Definitely important to let it sit 5 min before serving to get the full effect. Makes my whiskey taste wonderful, like it exposed many hidden flavors that I hadn't yet unlocked!
I needed a gift for my hard to buy for father and he loved these whiskey stones! He uses them quite often and everyone just thinks they are so cool.
I purchased these as a Christmas gift for my hubby, and they were a big hit. They are perfect for giving his Scotch a little chill without watering it down. And I love how smooth they are...easy to clean.
So glad I finally got some of these. My BF and I are getting serious about bourbon and these of course, due the trivk keeping it cold and un-dilluted.
