- Dissapointedlive2eatDined on 8/16/2014I think it's fair not to have high expectation when you walk in to any restaurant nowadays, obviously from the others reviews, everybody's experience is different when it comes to food and service, unfortunately ours were more negative than positive, although the service was nice, the food was disappointing when it came to taste and texture, but the worst thing about the whole restaurant is the awful smell when you walk by the kitchen on your way to the bathroom, they should do something about that, I wish I remember our waiter's name, but he was really nice and attentive.
- Always delicious!JaimiVIPDined on 8/9/2014We really love Blue Point. It's one of the those places you just can't go wrong with. The only criticism would be the price. The cost is the same as Eddy V's or Cowboy Star, and I'm not so sure the food, while very, very good, is up to those standards. We do enjoy the old school dinner house feel and will always go back. The martini's are especially good and may be why the bill is so high:)Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Our reviewOpenTable Diner Since 2013Dined on 8/9/2014Very nice place but the food was hit and miss. The crab topped halibut was dry and the lobster wasn't cooked fully. However the steak fillet was excellent as was everything else. Service was too notch!Special Features:
- Wonderful seafoodveglasagnaDined on 8/2/2014Enjoyed our mules, salmon with cheese grits and excellent serviceSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Fabulous Seafood and staff2fishyfoodiesDined on 8/2/2014ALWAYS excellent. Consistently perfectly prepared seafood. Professional & knowledgeable staff add to the pleasurable experience, with recommendations that are suited to our taste.Special Features:
- What a find!MikeVIPDined on 8/1/2014Brittany really helped us navigate a menu, in which absolutely everything looked good! She was very attentive without being overbearing. Kudos to the staff in the front and the back of the house.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- best restaurant in San DiegoLoliDined on 8/1/2014This is our new favorite for special occasions. From the moment we arrived, we were treated as though we were special guests. We were celebrating our son's 21st birthday, and we'll all remember the excellent service and the outstanding dishes and drinks. When we made our reservation we stated we have a guest with peanut allergy, and one with cinnamon allergy. Our server was already prepared for that, so she told us about the two or three dishes to avoid....that left us with many options. We all enjoyed tasting each other's choices. Can't wait to go again!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great SeafoodHappyCamperDined on 7/27/2014You won't be disappointed at Blue Point Coastal Cuisine. The Halibut was the best I've ever had and the service was wonderfulSpecial Features:
- Old School look/new school food=yumSusanSVIPDined on 7/27/2014For our first visit to San Diego, we were on business and looking for a really good restaurant near our hotel. Blue Coast came highly recommended on Open Table and did not disappoint. West Coast oysters were in need of NO enhancement, fresh, sweet and briny. My husband had the yellowfin with soba noodles and I had the sablefish (apparently butterfish? on the East Coast), both of which were delicious. The decor is deep red, leather banquettes, very comfortable. And the service was excellent. I hope there's another San Diego trip in my future.Special Features:
- SUBSTANDARD!amanda4882Dined on 7/25/2014Blue Point should be ashamed of themselves! First off, I came in on Friday at 5:30 for my reservation and there were 3 blonde girls standing at the hostess stand. No greeting, no hello, just staring as if I was a bother. I told them I had a reservation and was escorted to my seat of choice outside. Hostess walks away. Server comes up and asks for our drink order. I asked for the HH menu and the server seemed rather annoyed that we were ordering HH. I got my wine and it smelled like a dirty dish rag in the glass. I informed the server and they brought another glass of wine. Food came out and was terrible from the filet mignon ravioli to the caprese salad to the dumplings. All was really bad. No flavor and the ravioli was hard throughout.
- Highest quality protein that swimsLustForFoodDined on 7/21/2014Bottom line, high quality, fresh seafood. Skillfully prepared, served hot, almost every time I visit. New halibut entree a must try. Smoked salmon best I've had in San Diego.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Yummy from beginning to endCohnfanDined on 7/18/2014We started with fresh oysters and ended with dessert, sharing appetizer and entree in between -- definitely the way to go to taste several sections of the menu.Special Features:
- WAIT STAFF WOWED!GatirBearCADined on 7/15/2014The moment we walked into the restaurant the staff was warm and welcoming. After we were seated the great service continued. Our waiter was extremely friendly and treated us to a delicious amuse bouche. Our server also took the time to thoroughly explain the menu and highlight some of the restaurants best choices Our meal was scrumptious! Thank you for a wonderful dining experience!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- FoodiefiendDined on 7/11/2014Waiter forgot our oyster app. Then brought us the wrong one. But made it up with a free warm truffle chocolate cake. Great service recovery!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great seafood restaurantBobcDined on 7/11/2014I had the halibut, my wife had the linguine with shrimp and clams both were wonderfulSpecial Features:
- Unique seafood presentationJDRLVVIPDined on 7/10/2014I was in town for a meeting and wanted to eat some good seafood. I asked for advice from a server at the bar atop the Hyatt. She recommended the Blue Point just a short walk from the hotel. The recommendation was spot on. The ambience was understated elegance and complimented by Sinatra background music. The food was great. The oysters were large and incredibly fresh. For a main course I had the clam and shrimp linguini in pesto olive oil sauce. My wife had the butterfish. Both were beautifully prepare and uniquely presented. A good choice for a great seafood meal in the Gaslamp district.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- PerfectFredDined on 7/8/2014This was an absolutely perfect meal. The farmer's salad was great, scallops were prepared to perfection, and the service was outstanding. I highly recommend this restaurant - one of my all time best meals.
- Delicious romantic dinnerFoodLoverDined on 7/3/2014The food was excellent. Highly recommend the scallops and swordfish. The wine choices were great as well. The servers are extremely attentive and great at giving recommendations. It was my birthday as well, and they brought me a scrumptious ganache chocolate cake. Would definitely go again!!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great SeafoodPHilDined on 7/3/2014Had the Crab Crusted Halibut, it was amazing paired with teh Mac and Cheese which has to be on the all time best mac and cheese ever list, if that exists.Special Features:
- OceanicKarenDined on 6/27/2014We loved the oceanic theme, even though it's not on the water and the wait staff were exceptional! :-)Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- not really worth the priceCJMGilbertDined on 6/26/2014We really like C Level and so decided to try another of the CRG offerings. I got the crab-crusted halibut. My wife and daughter got the salmon. I enjoyed the halibut, the crab crust had a nice lemony zing that made the whole dish- but was it worth $48? I've had tastier fish dishes for less. My wife and daughter's salmon was nothing special. My wife said the best thing on the plate was the barbeque sauce for the salmon. The grits were sub-par, the rainbow carrots were so completely al dente that we called it raw and CJMthe spinach was without flavor. We skipped dessert and went down the street to Chocolat.
- Great!JanieVIPDined on 6/22/2014I went with my mom and had a great time. The cocktail was terrific, the food incredibly tasty and the server warm and accommodating. I can't ask for much more. We will go back again.Special Features:
- San Diego Seafoodixlr8VIPDined on 6/18/2014There are so many great options for seafood in San Diego, granted. Blue Point can be described as your standby, where you know you are going to get, not only a great meal, top quality, and superior service, but a great location right in the heart of the Gas Lamp neighborhood for a tremendous dining experience, with access to everything downtown SD. We had the Scallops, Salmon, and the Sablefish. Octopus salad was also delightful (Caesar and Calamari were also part of the experience). Dining on the patio was questionable for some, but if you can tolerate all walks of life, it was actually quite entertaining; like dinner and a show! Add in a handful of great cocktails, and it was a perfect outing. Thank you Mark, outstanding service sir.Special Features:
- Martini Masters!OpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 6/17/2014Awesome street-side gourmet dining and martinis to die for. An excellent experience for my out of town guests and a great recommendation for business meals near the convention center.Special Features:
- Great SeafoodBobndebDined on 6/10/2014Blue Point has become our favorite resturant in the Gaslamp. The seafood is fresh and cooked to perfection. We have always had outstanding service here. Highly recommend.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- carrieDined on 6/9/2014Central location, very good food and friendly servers! Really liked the wine menu. Whereas it may be a little old fashioned, it is always a great dining experience!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- wines123VIPDined on 6/8/2014I really enjoyed the food. It was tasty and the fish was very fresh. I wish the menu had a more complex appetizers otherwise it was delicious.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Consistently Delicious FoodMuschDined on 6/7/2014Blue Point Coastal Cuisine's food is consistently good. I have been there three times and it has never disappointed. The service is efficient and professional. The menu is diverse enough to please all palates and there is an extensive selection of wines. If you are visiting San Diego, if you have lived here all your life, or if you are entertaining a guest, be sure to take the time to go to this restaurant; you won't be disappointed.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great Meal, once againnenaDined on 6/6/2014Blue Point consistently meets high standards. We enjoyed our experience from the moment we walked in. The hostess was friendly, not minding that we arrived very early for our reservation. The waiter and bus boy were both friendly and knowledgeable, making it a comfortable and still elegant evening. And yes, the FOOD was FABULOUS.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Food was just okMBDB2014VIPDined on 5/31/2014The halibut was dry, the haricot vert were overcooked. I expected better for a $48 dish. The service was incredible.Special Features:
- steals burnt to a crispchrisDined on 5/29/2014Sadly my husband ordered a med steak that wad double well done. Mine was median well and was way over cooked. It was pretty bad
- Terrible foodOpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 5/27/2014I normally like this place, but it went with my father and my 2 uncles. I wanted to take them somewhere nice, but all of our food was terrible. Very disappointing especially since they drove two hours to see me and to go to dinner.
- Great seafoodOpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 5/24/2014Everything with seafood in it was delicious - skip the mushroom and beef ravioli, the pasta was tough and the insides were dry. The drinks are LARGE, they give you extra on the side. Had a great evening and left very well fed.
- Great food, outstanding serviceDJM1Dined on 5/23/2014Great food, outstanding service. What's not to like.Special Features:
- Excellenthaal1Dined on 5/16/2014We had a fabulous time. Our waiter was great and the food was fit for foodies. As a matter of fact I said that we were eating things that looked like what we see on Top Chef challenges.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great Mother's Day BrunchhappyDined on 5/11/2014The Mother's Day Brunch was delicious and I had the crab stuffed whole trout was AMAZING and very tasty. The steaks were perfectly cooked and my mom ate for free as a gift of the restaurant for all mothers and she loved her spinach ravioli with shrimp in a light cream sauce. It is in a great location in the Gas Lamp and we will be back!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Mother's Day surpriseOpenTable Diner Since 2009Dined on 5/11/2014I had eaten at Blue Point before and enjoyed their food so I took my sister there for Mothers Day lunch. To our surprise they paid for our entrees. How nice!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- smg46Dined on 5/11/2014Excellent service... Fantastic scallops.. so welcoming on Mother's day.Special Features:
- Very nice, but ...OpenTable Diner Since 2005VIPDined on 5/7/2014Food was good, but short of great. Would likely have been happier with it had the prices not been so outrageous. Ate at Top of the Market the next night, liked both food and ambience better, and spent less. Should try to do something about the fishy smell on entry to the restaurant. Not all fish seafood restaurants smell that way!I would recommend this to a friend.
- Can't wait to go backsmeredithsVIPDined on 5/4/2014We started with the lobster bisque and sashimi. Both were excellent and very flavorful. Our entrees were the albacore and the Faroe salmon. Our cleared plates were completely clean. The sides included with each entree were wonderful and tastefully plated. Our server, Erica, was extremely attentive, but not in a bothersome way. Our drinks were quickly refreshed and we left feeling full. Can't wait to return and try other fish entrees. This lives up to the rest of the Cohn restaurants we visit.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

ATLANTA (WXOW) -- The number of people killed in an outbreak of fungal meningitis is going up.
Over the weekend, at least 27 more people have become sick, brining the total number of cases to 91. At least seven people have now died from this.
The outbreak spans nine states, but so far there are no confirmed cases in Wisconsin.
Now, the pharmacy that distributed the steroid shot linked to the outbreak is recalling all of its products as a precaution.
The New England Compounding Center announced the recall on Saturday. The company said in a news release that the move was taken out of an abundance of caution because of the risk of contamination. It says there is no indication that any other products have been contaminated.
The Food and Drug Administration had previously told health professionals not to use any products distributed by the center.

INDIANAPOLIS — The Eagles have a tough decision to make at quarterback.
They like Michael Vick, who earned their exclusive franchise tag.
They say they like Kevin Kolb, despite his benching and despite the fact that only one QB can start at a time.
And they have spoken highly of Mike Kafka, the third quarterback on the depth chart.
So do they keep all three? GM Howie Roseman wouldn't tip his, or the team's, hand on the issue.
"I think the way we see it is that Kevin Kolb is a very good starting quarterback in the NFL, we're happy to have him and he's going to be very successful," Roseman said.
With the Eagles?
"With the Eagles," he said.
So there you have it.
Of course, many folks believe that the Eagles' praiseworthy comments have been flowered up because the team intends to trade him. We're heading into an offseason where very few veteran QBs might be available via the trade and free-agent markets, and it's a draft class with talent but also questions. Throw in a number of teams looking for a quality quarterback, and bam — you've got a trade market that should be strong.
The Eagles, despite what they say or don't say on the matter, would be silly not to investigate how much teams are willing to pay for Kolb's services. But they also — as Roseman said in myriad different ways — like him and could opt to keep Kolb given Vick's proneness for injury and an offensive line that could be in transition. It would be a luxury to have such a valuable commodity, who's able to come off the bench at a moment's notice.
"Kevin Kolb is a great player," Roseman said. "We have a lot of confidence in him, obviously. We gave him the starting job after Donovan (McNabb) last year. He has all the tools we're looking for to be a starting quarterback, and we feel lucky to have him."
Roseman hinted that changes could be afoot on the offensive line. New OL coach Howard Mudd is considered one of the best in the business, but the personnel also could use upgrading.
"In our role as personnel people, we want to make sure we get the best talent on the offensive line," he said. "We have some guys that are scheduled to be free agents. It's an area we didn't really address last year in the offseason ...
"That's obviously a position, in terms of our priorities, (that) we believe in building the offensive line."

AUG 29 Everyone who cares about Louisiana should take time to peruse this story about coastal loss from Bob Marshall of The Lens. It's not enough to call it a story; it's an interactive experience packed with data and amazing graphics, timelines, history, photos and excellent writing. Set aside some time, because you can't go through this one in a few minutes.
JUN 29 This bizarre story from the Advocate on the shooting of a Baton Rouge television personality reads like the script of a soap opera - but not a good one. The allegations against him include sexual abuse of children, including the alleged shooter, and a sham immigration marriage involving his own daughter. The other side? He was a chaplin for the Sheriff's Office in Baton Rouge and preached in a local church.
AUG 29 Here's a story from CBS News about a killer amoeba found in the water system of St. John the Baptist Parish. The story made all three networks (CBS, ABC, NBC) as well as Fox "News," although they have not yet found out how it is Obama's fault. Seriously, the good news is that so far officials know of no one sickened by the water.
AUG 29 Huffington Post has a blog called Love Letters, which is grandly described as "an anthology of reflections on places the world over." This entry is from LSU Football Coach Les Miles, who, it appears, loves Baton Rouge. (Of course he does; he's a rich straight white man.) And certainly Baton Rouge loves him - unless he loses (ask Curley "Golden Flake" Hallman about that) or leaves (ask Nick Saban).
AUG 29 Blogger Bob Mann comments here upon Governor Bobby Jindal's federal lawsuit about Common Core. Mann calls it a "thinly veiled campaign document" and that might be the nicest thing he says in this post. Most troubling for Jindal and his aspirations, Mann has unearthed what Bobby said just a few years ago when he first decided to shove Common Core down our throats.
AUG 29 Blogger Tom Aswell has several developments here related to the so-called Edmonson amendment. The most entertaining one is possibly Tom's acknowledgement that a State Police official is (allegedly) calling the bloggers covering the story some colorful names. Listen up, cowboy: You really think two veterans like Tom Aswell and CB Forgotston care if you call them idiots?
AUG 29 Gotta love those journalists who write something with the enthusiasm that implies they're the first one to figure something out. Mostly, they're not. This is one of those times; the post on Slate Magazine says that Bobby Jindal's Common Core lawsuit is a political stunt. Well - Duh.
AUG 29 This story by WVLA tells us about a guy who got busted for speeding in Baton Rouge. Who cares? This guy took that infraction to new heights by going 129 miles per hour on Nicholson Drive. Poor fella - he probably has spent so much time sitting in Baton Rouge traffic he just had to cut lose.
AUG 28 As the controversy surrounding the Office of Group Benefits intensifies, blogger Tom Aswell gives us some background on the current problems. The OGB, which handles health insurance for current and retired state employees, is deep in the red since it was privatized by Jindal, and Aswell gives us the skinny: this great plan was designed by ALEC. The company handling it? Blue Cross Blue Shield of Louisiana - a longtime member of ALEC.
AUG 28 Blogger CB Forgotston has a concept for a new reality show: the wives of the "Dork Dynasty." That's the name that some troopers have given to State Police Commander Mike Edmonson and his inner circle. The ladies CB has picked for his cast are not just housewives, however, and the connections here are pretty interesting.
AUG 28 Blogger Ian McGibboney is writing about the strife in Ferguson in this post, and articulating what many people down south are saying. There's a fairy tale about how there's tons of racism in the South, but it's all hunky dory up North. (Really? Look again.)

News & Events
More than 75 BSU employees were honored for their long years of service and numerous achievements at the university's annual Employee Recognition Awards Luncheon held in the Campus Center's large ballroom.
Service Awards were presented to 66 employees who have provided 10 or 20 years of service with the university. Additionally, DRIVE Awards were presented to recognize the achievements of employees in four categories: Community Involvement, Superior Accomplishment, Environmental and Safety Awareness and Most Effective Team/Office.
Employees who have given 25 years of service will be recognized at spring commencement in May.
Frederick Clark, executive vice president and vice president for External Affairs, told the employees they were an integral part of the institution.

Time Management - Lesson 1: How to Get Things Done in Time
The 3 most valuable time management techniques are:
Time Facts#1:
Each week contains 168 hours. Are you utilizing this time to your best advantage?
Make a "To Do" List
Write down everything you would like to accomplish in the next week on a 3 X 5 card or on a pad of paper you carry with you. Each item is only a word or a phrase. Give no thought to the importance of each item.
Prioritize the "To Do" List
Not all items on your list are of equal importance. Many individuals rank order all items assigning a "1″ to the most important item, a "2″ to the next most important, etc., to the least important. You begin each day by tackling #1 before you touch any other item and proceed numerically through the list.
Another technique is to write a capital "A" beside those items that you MUST DO, a "B" for items that are IMPORTANT to do, and a "C" for items of LOWER value. This technique offers variety and flexibility. You should tackle all "A" items before you begin a "B" item, and of course, all "B's" before your start on "C's". Cross items off the list as you complete them to motivate you to go on to the next priority item on your list.
Schedule items on the "To Do" List
To insure you will complete all your "A" tasks, schedule these items into your appointment book like you would a doctor's visit. Items that are scheduled have a much better chance of being accomplished. And when possible schedule assignments throughout the day to allow for unforeseen problems as well as unexpected appointments.
NOTE: The University Bookstore has FREE student planners (more elaborate calendars/planners are available for $3 to $10). The first thing to do once you have a planner is schedule all of your exam dates, term papers, presentations as well as significant social events such as Family and Friends Weekend, Homecoming, etc. In this way you can quickly see what's coming at you and plan your time and schedule accordingly.
REMEMBER: There is always enough time to do the really important activities. The difficulty is deciding what is really important and focusing on it.

- CelebrationDined on 8/16/2014We were celebrating my daughter's special birthday, and used a private room, with a round table.

I'm sure everyone enjoyed the evening.CelebrationSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Amazing!fullbellyDined on 8/15/2014Great service as soon as we arrive. Complimentary valet, friendly host, attentive server. It was just a great experience. The sirloin I had was cooked great basically melted in my mouth. The lobster Mac and cheese had thick pieces of lobster and tasted delicious. I also ordered the truffle fries and sauteed spinach both excellent choices as well. The manager also came to our table just to see how myself and date were doing. I believe from start to finish this restaurant exceeded my expectation. I will be back again.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Exquisite DiningLoverofgreatfoodDined on 8/9/2014This restaurant had all the right elements for an enjoyable, relaxed, and romantic atmosphere that presented such wonderfully prepared food to celebrate our wedding anniversary.

I would highly recommend to anyone for a great night out with amazing food. If you want a great steak downtown, come to The Capital Grille!Special Features:
- Generous PourJazzLoversVIPDined on 8/9/2014Having generous pour coincide with restaurant week is always a plus. The wines were good with a good variety of the different grape varietals. This was the first time we were seated in the back room. The noise level was much lower back there on a Saturday night (and this was with every table taken). We could hear the difference as we walked through the dining areas. The filet was cooked to perfection. Having the creamed spinach and au gratin potatoes definitely rounds out the meal.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Wonderful EveningOpenTable Diner Since 2006Dined on 8/9/2014We had another outstanding dinner at Capital Grill! We ordered from the restaurant week menu and everyone's steak was perfectly cooked as requested (medium rare). Their filet is consistently the best for flavor and tenderness. The service (Ali, you are the best!) was attentive and made the meal even more enjoyable. For my fellow gluten free diners: Capital Grill is knowledgeable and very accommodating about meeting the needs of gluten free diners even during restaurant week.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Best service aroundTwinBkpDined on 8/9/2014Steaks were great....although Ruth's Chris steak with butter cannot be beat. These had excellent flavor and the sides were fantastic! Also the wine selection was incredible! The one thing that stood out was the staff. Scott, our waiter, and was excellent, several other wait staff attended to us (filling water glasses, etc.) and even two managers stopped by quickly to make sure we were being taken care of. I would definitely go back!Special Features:
- Filet melted in our mouths!MeltyDined on 8/8/2014We went for the restaurant week menu and each of my party was delighted with everything. I did eat way too much of all the delicious breads first. New England clam chowder was definitely one of the best I have ever had with the perfect "mouth feel". The side order of potatoes au gratin were excellent and the steak was the best I have ever had. Even the cheesecake was above and beyond. We enjoyed all of our server's recommendations.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Top Notch!!!!MaggiVIPDined on 8/8/2014You did it again! Always top notch! The Capital Grille never disappoints. Mark, our server, is always at the top of his game. Our steaks were prepared perfectly. The Generous Pour was fabulous. Thank you for a most enjoyable evening from start to finish.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Best steak house in townAnnieDined on 8/5/2014The Capital Grill is by far THE BEST steak house, if not the best restaurant in town! We came here on a Tuesday night during Restaurant Week. We still felt very special even with a packed house. The food was amazing and the service was perfect. A truly 5 star experience!!!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- A Good Dining ExperienceSallyAnnVIPDined on 8/5/2014We went for Restaurant Week so our dinner was a great buy but the restaurant was very crowded and our table was not well located. My husband's steak was overdone but it was immediately replaced by a perfectly done steak presented by the chef. Our waitperson, Manny, was terrific. He made sure that our every want was met, and the food was very good.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Restaurant weekJeanneVIPDined on 8/5/2014It was good, but I think because of crowds for restaurant week the food not quite as good...steaks overcooked a litttle. Great deal thoughSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Great ExperienceSoupoftheDayDined on 8/4/2014From the moment we walked in the door until we left it was a great experience. The staff was knowledgable and very helpful in recommending dishes when we couldn't decide. Brittany Olson was a fabulous server and made us feel like we were her priority. The food was amazing and cooked perfectly even though I had a somewhat specific order. Thank you for such a great experience!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Fantastic!OpenTable Diner Since 2006Dined on 8/4/2014Not much more to say other than that every thing we ate was delicious, from the different types of bread served, clam chowder soup, 8oz filet (with the Kona rub - it's amazing), and flourless espresso cake. We also tried a couple of sides - the parmesan truffle fries are a must. Great good, great service (very friendly and attentive but not over the top!). It is pricey though, so maybe more of a special occasion place unless you have expendable income :).Special Features:
- ImpressiveBaltimoreBelleDined on 8/4/2014Food was prepared to perfection. Service discreet and fast. Meal enjoyed to the utmost.Special Features:
- pickeyeaterpickeyeaterDined on 8/3/2014Went for restaurant week which I think is a gimmick. For the $30 meal, I wound up paying $135.00 (tax and tip) for 2 people. But, I'm not mad. This is how people make money.I would recommend this to a friend.
- The service & food were exceptionalBethDDined on 8/3/2014From start to finish, celebrating our anniversary as we have other times before, at the Capital Grille is such a pleasant experience...from the minute we pulled up and received valet parking, to the lovely and gracious hostesses and lovely table we were given to celebrate at...we were treated to champagne flutes and just lovely service . We took advantage of Baltimore restaurant week and chose that menu which was lovely and had many nice choices...from start to finish a lovely evening!Special Features:
- Best in BaltimoreSandyDined on 8/3/2014This was our first visit to The Capital Grille, and we just loved it. We took advantage of the Restaurant Week special they offered, which included soup or salad, entree, and dessert for $30. I had the clam chowder, the Parmesan and Herb Crusted Tournedos of Filet Mignon, and the cheesecake for dessert, and everything was perfect.Special Features:
- Restaurant Week SpecialOpenTable Diner Since 2008Dined on 8/3/2014During restaurant week, our friends and we usually look for a great restaurant that we normally can't afford to frequent because of the expense. So, we have gone to the Capital Grille the last couple of years during this special time. Our server, Paul, was great, giving us as much time as we wanted to enjoy the evening, even though the selections were pretty much geared to the special menu. As always, the steaks were outstanding, with the 8-ounce fillet being the most favorite at our table. The desert selections were a bit limited, but were very tasty. Of course when you add the drinks and a bottle of wine, the bill adds up, but all-in-all it was a very special evening at one of the best restaurants in town.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Capital GrillEmeryDined on 8/3/2014Wonderful service, great food and excellent price during Restaurant Week.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Impeccable DiningMyellagirlDined on 8/3/2014If you want to enjoy 5-star dining this is the place to be. Dress is from Harbor Place casual to special dinner.

It's One of the Hottest Issues of Today, Yet as With ALL
Few things can steal the innocence of childhood like bullying.
Bullying can rob an energetic, happy-go-lucky girl of her self-esteem. It can cause an inquisitive boy to become quiet and withdrawn.
Bullying can have damaging effects on a person's psyche and self-image that last a lifetime.
It can lead to depression, sadness … and even suicide.
So many tragic bullying stories have led the news recently. It's a topical issue … it's an important issue … and, guess what, as with everything that is important to us, the Bible deals with it head on.
Hello, my name is Mary-Kate Warner, a Sunday School director for over two decades, and I have to say that few recent issues have touched a nerve with me like bullying has.
You See, When I was a Kid I Went Through
It wasn't nearly as severe as what many kids are experiencing today but it did have an impact on me and on my personality, that much I'm sure of.
I was able to get through that difficult period thanks to a wise and understanding pastor who directed me to some very powerful Bible stories that speak directly to bullying and how we should handle it.
Those Bible stories gave me the strength I needed to persevere and overcome the bullying I was experiencing and I immediately thought back on that time in my life when bullying started recently gaining so much attention in the national media.
As I read of more and more kids committing suicide and dealing with mental health issues because of bullying, it hit me that a lot of kids don't know what the Bible says about bullying and that if they did they could gain a lot of strength from that, just like I did.
So here's what I've done:
I've created a comprehensive program that will help Sunday School teachers, youth ministers, regular school teachers, pastors, principals and parents provide kids with the Biblical foundation they need to not fall victim to bullying or engage in bullying behavior in the future.
Introducing "Bullying & the Bible" …
With bullying being so prominently featured in the news lately, everybody wants to help out. This has lead to a wide variety of different messages from different authorities and all these different, often conflicting messages are leaving kids confused.
Kids need a straightforward, consistent message, a message that never changes – well, guess what, God never changes.
What God said many, many, many years ago still holds true today.
As psychology findings change, as electronics change the nature of friendships and as the ways to bully or be bullied continue to increase, two things that don't change are:
God's word speaks loudly and clearly on the subject of bullying and the stories of the Bible are relevant to cyber-bullying, school yard bullying and neighborhood bullying.
With the lessons in "Bullying and the Bible" kids will feel a real connection to the superheroes of God's word and will instantly be able to draw parallels between the situations described in the Bible and the bullying situations that are occurring today.
Here's just some of what kids will learn:
Your Students will be Amazed to See How
Each of the lessons in the "Bullying and the Bible" Program focuses in on a Bible character who experienced bullying and one theme that is often present in bullying situations of today.
You and your kids may be surprised to learn how bullies in the Bible are very similar to what kids often see or even face down in school today.
These lessons will help kids:
Here's How Each Lesson is Set Up …
Each lesson, which should last about an hour, is broken down into a combination of the following parts depending on if you are teaching older or younger students:
To help the lesson time go even better, I've also included:
The Ultimate Goal of this Program …
With this program, I want kids to understand a little better the behavior of bullying as well as the behaviors leading up to it.
I want kids to understand that they all have the susceptibility to behave in these ways themselves!
Therefore they should forgive others and be merciful in judgment.
When facing down bullies, kids should be confident—not that they can win a battle with a bully, but, as I said earlier, that their God is faithful and just and helpful to those who call upon him.
I am confident these lessons will help a child develop that confidence!
Ready to Help Your Kids Better Deal
Imagine a world without bullies where everyone is allowed to develop and grow without interference … a world where we don't have to worry about kids being injured mentally and physically by a bully.
Unfortunately, that world does not exist but we do have the next best thing – God's instructions on how to deal with this very serious and very dangerous issue.
The "Bullying and the Bible" Program consists of two different lesson packs – and if you order now, you can get the lesson pack of your choice at a special low price.
Choose from:
SIX LESSONS & DISCUSSIONS ABOUT BULLYING BEHAVIOR FOR TWEENERS AND TEENS (AGES 10-16) – Just $27!
One of the earmarks of 'tweeners and teens is the process of distancing oneself from parents and authorities, with a greater attachment developing on peers. This age often causes great anxiety in parents as they realize that their 'tweeners and teens are actually more willing to learn about acceptable behavior from friends than from parents.
But instead of fighting this process, this lesson series is designed to take full advantage of the mindset.
Rather than wrestle with what kids naturally want to do, these lessons contain discussions where they will be learning from each other with just a bit of guidance from the teacher.
FOR YOUNG STUDENTS (AGES 5-9) … 6 BIBLE LESSONS & GREAT ACTIVITIES TO TEACH THE LATEST ANTI-BULLYING BEHAVIORS – Just $27!
In these six lessons, I have included more than 30 scripture verses, all of which can stand at the center of modern day anti-bullying practices. These are used throughout the six object lessons and the crafts, games, and discussions that reinforce them.
This lesson series uses Biblical concepts like "shields of faith," "wands of forgiveness," and "the living waters" of Christ that bring forgiveness when we are wronged or do wrong.
I want younger kids to learn how to respond in bullying situations, whether they are the victim, a bystander, or a potential bully. The lessons use repetition, group play, and activities to drive home a different sub-theme each of the six weeks.
FOR A LIMITED TIME, GET BOTH LESSON PACKS – 'TWEENERS AND TEENS (AGES 10-16) & YOUNG STUDENTS (AGES 5-9) – for One Special Low Price – Just $39
(that's a savings of $15 off what you would pay if you bought both packs individually!)
'About Half of All Children Experience Bullying …'
According to the American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, close to half of all children will experience school bullying at some point in primary or secondary school.
At least 10 percent of children are bullied regularly. Nearly all children have been bystanders (witnessed bullying) while in or around school.
In recent studies psychologists have noted that:
• People's brains are not totally developed until the age of 25. And two skills that appear to be the last to fall into place are often (1) understanding the ramifications of actions, and (2) empathy, or the ability to put ourselves into other people's shoes. As these skills are still developmental in teens, they can be all but absent in younger children … which is why bullying so often happens
But Now the Good News …
Other studies have shown that kids who are taught right behaviors from wrong ones and who are prepared for situations that present themselves — these children are far more likely to use those acceptable modes of behavior.
Prepare your kids and help them avoid being bullied or bullying others with the "Bullying and the Bible" program.

Here's the Bottom Line on This
As Christians, we are ahead of the curve when it comes to dealing with bullying.
We have, in the Bible, tried and true policy that was established for us long ago and we have the ultimate ally in the Living God who created the Heavens and the Earth, and who is not the least bit intimidated by anything one child can do to another.
God sees all!
While it would be superficial and wrong to present God's Holy Word as a "fix-all" to a complex and irascible problem of modern industrialization, it does contain the foundational material we need to launch programs that have the greatest chance of success.
The lessons in "Bullying and the Bible" mix faith, Biblical teaching and today's most helpful anti-bullying tools so that Christian kids can get through school without either playing victim or bully.
To order:
Mary-Kate Warner
P.S. After this great exposure to anti-bullying themes that are Christ-driven, kids will be more prepared to recognize, neutralize and respond healthily to bullying behaviors. In situations that are out of control, they should feel not only comfortable but proud for telling the nearest teacher or grownup. They will also learn how very relevant the Bible is and what a friend Jesus is willing to be.
P.P.S. Remember, the special combo price for both lesson packs is a limited time offer that will expire soon. Get all 12 "Bullying and the Bible" lessons for just $39 before it is too late! Click here to order now.
P.P.P.S Also remember, that you are making this purchase at absolutely no risk. So grab this special price while you can! If "Bullying and the Bible" isn't everything you were expecting, simply notify me within 60 days and I will refund your money immediately.

Here in Hilton Head where most days the skies are blue and the weather is mild, there is plenty to do to keep active during the winter months. Here are our top 10 winter activities on Hilton Head Island:
1) Polish your golf game – Our Hilton Head golf academy offers a variety of classes for golfers all winter long. Learn to play more carefree like Bubba Watson, improve your mental golf game or enjoy daily 50-minute clinics on different skills. See our winter golf academy schedule. Or just head out for a round with some pals. Winter is a great time to play golf in Hilton Head, as the crowds of summer are long gone, making for better pace of play, and temperatures are mild.
2) Ride a bike! – With some 50 miles of paved bike paths on Hilton Head Island, there's no excuse not to get out and enjoy the beauty of our island. Hilton Head Outfitters offers Hilton Head bike rentals for every member of your family, including cruisers, kiddie carts, tag-a-longs and child seats.
3) Get in a cardio workout by playing tennis – Tennis gets the blood pumping for sure and the milder weather makes for more comfortable outdoor play. Try a Hilton Head tennis lesson from our Palmetto Dunes Tennis Center or take it up a notch with our Cardio Tennis class offered during the winter months on holidays.
4) Shop! – There are plenty of unique boutiques and stores on Hilton Head to make sure you head home with a one-of-a-kind souvenir of your Hilton Head vacation. Try Shelter Cove Harbour waterfront shops or shop our Hilton Head golf pro shops and tennis pro shop for some great finds.
5) Kayak or canoe the lagoon – Plan to rent a kayak or canoe from Hilton Head Outfitters and head out mid afternoon, when the weather should be at its warmest. Enjoy a peaceful tour of our 11-mile inland lagoon system, take in the wildlife and see Palmetto Dunes in an entirely new way.
6) Take a walk on the beach and look for shells – With fewer people visiting Hilton Head in the winter, you'll enjoy a quiet stroll and have a better chance of finding some great shells. Keep your eye out for dolphins in the surf and see what kind of treasures have washed ashore. Here are more tips on beachcombing in Hilton Head.
7) Catch a redfish! – Fall and winter are some of the best times to catch a "big red" and our team of fishermen can help you do it. Whether you take an offshore or inshore Hilton Head fishing charter, learn to fish from the pros and see if you can earn bragging rights to a trophy red.
8) Eat oysters – Here in the south, we say that months ending in "r" are the best ones to eat oysters, so before December winds down, take this last opportunity! There's a fine art to eating an oyster (or you can just slurp it down, of course J) whether you enjoy it with a touch of lemon, hot sauce or just plain!
9) Go birdwatching – The birds are out in winter, and in fact, during Hilton Head's last Christmas bird count they totaled up more species than ever before! Grab some binoculars and head out on a kayak in the lagoon or a Hilton Head boat tour to Daufuskie Island or Pinckney Island Wildlife Refuge for some great birdwatching. More Hilton Head birdwatching tips in the Hilton Head Outfitters blog.
10) Do nothing! After you've done our top 9, why not relax, unwind and do nothing :)? Kick back in your Hilton Head vacation rental from Palmetto Dunes and enjoy an ocean or palm tree view. Grab a good book, a cup of coffee and rest. Ahhh….
Palmetto Dunes offers plenty of packages to help you work in all of these things from our Monthly Stay & Sports Membership to our Spa Packages to Hilton Head tennis packages and Hilton Head golf packages. If we can answer any questions or book you a stay or tee time, please give us a call at 866-744-7558.
From the golf course to where to eat and drink we've compiled tips and information from the staff at Palmetto Dunes to help you get the most out of your visit to our resort.
If you've never stayed with us before, feel free to ask us any questions you have by emailing firstname.lastname@example.com or you can "like" us on Facebook and follow us on Twitter and we'll answer your questions there.
Do you have a great tip for visiting Palmetto Dunes?
So you've set the date, picked the location and asked your friends to be in your wedding party but you just can't ask the boss for an extra week off for your honeymoon quite yet.
The honeymoon is the icing on your wedded bliss cake but for many it's extremely challenging to plan more time off after the wedding planning week amidst work or school schedules. That's why we've created the Mini Moon Package.
This mini vacation after your nuptials will give you the much needed breather you need but will allow you to go back to work or school without taking too many extra PTO days! This package is also ideal for those looking for a long weekend getaway to rekindle the flames for Valentine's Day with all the spa, food and romance you could want.
The Mini Moon package includes:
Be bold and follow in the footsteps of William and Kate and Kim Kardashian and Kris Humphries (except try to stay married longer than 72 days) and try our new Mini Moon. Call us at 866-744-7558 for more information and make sure to visit us at www.palmettodunes.com .
It might be freezing outside and you're thinking more about wearing scarves than swimsuits but this Christmas why not get the family a present that will warm everyone's heart? A trip to Hilton Head Island!
Here at Palmetto Dunes Oceanfront Resort you can find the perfect home or villa located near the ocean, golf course or lagoon depending on how your loved ones want to spend their vacation.
2118 Windsor Place has an oceanfront view and plenty of space for your whole family. The large open balcony is a great place to drink your coffee in the morning or wind down at night to the sound of tbhe ocean breeze. Enjoy views of the ocean from your private balcony overlooking an oceanfront pool with a spa, barbecue area and children's pool.
We know that many families love to gather in the kitchen and this unit has a spacious kitchen that's open to the living and dining room. Another great feature is that all four bedrooms have their own private bathroom, making it easy for everyone to clean up and get ready after a day in the sand. The Arthur Hills golf course is a short walk away for all the golfers in the family, and you can enjoy two hours of free tennis court time each day you stay with us!
So call us now at 866-744-7558 and get the whole family a gift they will truly enjoy. Also, when you book early, you're eligible for some really amazing deals!
We love the almost year-round sunshine here on the Hilton Head coast, but those super sunny days can present some challenges when it's time to hit the tennis courts. Serving into the sun can be tough. One way to keep the sun out of your eyes without hindering your game is with a pair of sunglasses made for tennis.

Keeping the camera lined up squarely with the art was actually very tedious and I am looking for ideas on how to do it better. I wish the world had a "snap to grid" checkbox!It's good to get the works as close as practical to totally square-on, but getting it 100% right in camera is tedious and rarely necessary.
I find it's a great deal quicker to get it "close-enough" and do the final tweak in PS Transform with a grid as reference.
With experience you learn the right balance.

Peter Slaghuis (21 August 1961 - 5 September 1991) was a Dutch DJ, composer and performer, whose work was mostly released under the name Hithouse - a literal English translation of his last name (slagen - to hit; and huis - house). He was a rising figure in the European dance music scene in the 1980s, producing popular remixes of various hits. With the arrival of house music in Europe, Slaghuis took up the pseudonym Hithouse and began using sampling and other house music techniques in this work.

The menu at first reads like standard fare at a North Indian restaurant. But beyond the chicken tikka masala, many of the curries and soups have a subtler heat and simpler spicing that reflect the cooking of India's neighbor, Nepal. Don't miss the momos—hearty dumplings filled with either minced chicken or vegetables.
Success! Your message should arrive shortly.

ARLINGTON - Thousands of North Texans celebrating the holidays will soon slide down one of the most popular attractions in the area: Frosty Snow Hill at Six Flags Over Texas.
Six Flags has special activities as part of their ongoing "Holiday at the Park" event.
On Friday morning, News 8 paid a visit before the park opened to learn more about all the preparation that goes in to keeping up a snow hill in the middle of North Texas. Employees have been working late hours and extra days since the beginning of November to replenish the snow, which melts away week after week.
"It looks quite simple, but they actually take ice from our ice house and use a mechanism that transforms that ice into that's more or less snow that's blown across the hill for guests to enjoy," said Sharon Parker with Six Flags Over Texas.
Six Flags will be open all through the week of December 17th in expectation of the crowds on break. The "Holiday in the Park" events run through January 6th, 2013.

- ...Eh, could have been betterOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 6/27/2014First time here and expected it to be a wonderful experience however, first trying to find the main entrance was a joke since the doors in the front are in fact, not doors to be used - you have to go to the right side of the building. The hostess station was more like a chit chat spot and came off very unprofessional. The waitress was sweet and I say this because all she could do is smile. She was unbelievably slow to take orders, bring drinks, food - heck, to show up at all it was waiting what felt like an eternity; even for the check. I ordered the pepperoni flatbread and they not only brought it to me cold but it didn't have any pepperoni. The spiced apple bread pudding was served cold and not warm like advertised.Special Features:
- Very AverageAvidDinerDined on 6/21/2014I went to Kona Grill with a group of friends. None of us had been there before. The restaurant was almost completely empty. It's suppose to be an open restaurant with the bar windows open and outdoor seating, but realize it's the middle of the summer in Florida!!! We arrived at 7:00 and almost left after drinks because it was just too hot to eat a full meal. We moved further to the back and had them put on more air and then it was livable. The service was ok but very pushy to move along and order, which was surprising since the place was empty. It's not as if they needed the table. The food was very average according to all six of us in my party.

- Worst Customer ServiceBurnedDined on 6/12/2014I've been to Kona Grills in other venues but this was the worse experience I've ever had. We're were a group of 15 people sitting outdoors and although there were two umbrellas available to help shade the sun, we were not allowed to use them. Not even the manager was helpful.No need to dine again and spend money at a restaurant that doesn't care about their patrons.Special Features:

- NOT IMPRESSEDFladiverDined on 5/23/2014Ok, I have been here a couple of time for happy hour and the drinks were very good and so were some of the appetizers. However, my first time actually eating dinner there was far less than I anticipated. Not only was it very loud, my mother never got her food and it took the manager 3x of the waitress asking him to come over before he finally did. He did give my mom her food for free, but it would have been nice to actually eat together. Also, the chicken I had was dry and not much flavor. Maybe it was a bad night, but I think I will stick to happy hour at this place.

- Ok service and ok foodJen12973Dined on 5/14/2014We went on a Wednesday to enjoy the "Wine Down Wednesdays". It was a nice crowd. The service was not great for the amount of people that were actually at tables and not at the bar. The Pad Thai was not very good at all. It was very dry and unflavorful. The macadamia nut pie was INCREDIBLE though and the company was great. I would recommend to go to the bar but I don't think I would recommend the food.
- Happy hour deals and more!foodiecutieVIPDined on 5/14/2014I usually don't like to dine at chain restaurants but this one has exceeded my expectations in terms of the quality and taste of the food. I have been for both happy hour dining and regular dining. In both cases, the food and drinks have been great. Recommend: - Miso glazed sea bass: Full of flavor and the sea bass was super moist and flaky - Crab crunch roll: Cucumber "wrapper" instead of seaweed makes this roll super refreshing Tip: All bottles of wine is half off on Wednesday nights.Special Features:
