u3shaders 2.1Dec 15, 2012 Full Version 6 comments
u3shaders 2.1 release. It was widely used being packaged with various big mods, like Narodnaya Solyanka and others.
It is based mainly on Call of Pripyat shaders, heavily modified to properly work in SoC.
They can contain some portions of F32 pack or some others, however it is rare. If you claim an authorship of some portion of the code, please send me a note so I can mention you by your name and thank you.
Authors of the code are: GSC Studio and utak3r.
Please note for proper results you should turn on a bloom effect. Don't be scared, it's a modified bloom, and is working properly.
Always up-to-date git repository (which is a recommended source for a download) can be found here.

I have opened a public git repository for everyone interested in getting the latest, not yet released version of u3shaders.
It is always up-to-date, and giving the fact I'm still working on these shaders, and the last release was well over 2 years ago, this is a good place for you to get them. It is also an easy way for you to get involved.
The repository can be found here.
u3shaders 2.1 release. It was widely used being packaged with various big mods, like Narodnaya Solyanka and others.
Hi utak3r,
Thank you for your excellent work on this mod. I am presently using v2.2 RC3 and it is working splendidly - cheers! I do have a question for you, however: is it possible to override the automatic reduction in shadow map quality caused by increasing the r2_sun_near variable? At present, if this variable is increased from its default value of 12 to, say, 45, then the nearby shadows look terrible, even with the -smap4096 switch enabled. It would be nice if the game did not automatically butcher shadow quality when its draw distance is increased, and I am wondering if this can be done by tweaking the shaders.
So by how you're describing this, there needs to be a model overhaul through the game to make the SSAO work properly?
Meltac's dynamic shaders still have the problem but it's comparatively much less noticeable than your set of shaders. You should look at his to see if there's something you could use from it, like a value or something I don't know.
As I said, this would destroy the whole idea of my shaders pack... why creating another the same shaders? My version works in some different way in some areas. Yes, this makes *some* things looking worse in SoC's world, but others look better :) I'll see if I can do anything without degrading the whole pack, but I can't promise anything.
Besides, my work with SoC is almost over... I'm finishing my old mod (utAMK) and I'm moving definitely to CoP. CoP is *much* better in terms of mechanics and technicals. Also, modding is much easier, as many things are already implemented there.
I didn't say take Meltac's and use his with yours, I just said to merely look into his and see how he did SSAO to see if you can correct this as much as possible, because I've noticed the best results with this glitch from Meltac's. You can still notice black bars and **** of that like on flat surfaces but it's only when the sun hits it at odd angles, whereas I could notice the bars on miscellaneous flat surfaces, like the metal barricades and metal gates before the entrance to the Wild Territory with your shaders. All I'm saying is there has to be something that could correct this as much as possible.
Yep, however this is not SSAO, this is something with overall shadowing/lighting algorithm. Note turning SSAO off does NOT help here ;)
I'll see if I can find anything about this.
That's a shame. It's okay though, I'll just play with ssao off. I'm glad you were able to fix the blurring problem :)
Turning SSAO off WON'T help - it's not SSAO's problem, it's shadowing/overall lighting problem.
Oh ok. My bad.
Either way I am enjoying your shaders and I'm excited by the idea that you want to move on to CoP. Do you think you might do some work on the shaders there or did you have other plans?
I will start from AI modding, that's for sure (the same how I started in SoC). Then we'll see... maybe some new levels or something... (you can also check my profile's screenshots and videos ;) )

Originally written on BruinsLife | Last updated 11/17/14
I said coming into the season that Tuukka is the key to the Bruins season. And tonight was a primary example of why. Rask stood on his head over the course of the game and denied countless scoring opportunities that the Canadians had. His play is what kept the game in check and allowed the Bruin's to come out with a much needed W against their rival. The power play continues to struggle and remains the team's primary concern going forward. In 30+ power play chances, The B's have been able to notch just 3 scores. Their seeming inability to capitalize on power play opportunities was a problem throughout last year, especially in the playoffs, and needs to be addressed by the coaching staff going forward. But that being said, there are far more encouraging signs for the Bruins than discouraging ones, most specifically the fact that Tuukka is proving to be the talented and reliable netminder we all hoped he would be this season. He has struggled against the Canadians in t...

In the process of boiling a Belgian Quad that will finish around 1.103. Got busy with SWMBO and forgot to check the mash temp until close to 45 minutes. Turned out to be ~145F.
Maybe this isn't an issue, but if I end up with a 1.103 Belgian Quad with a FG of ~1.010, it might taste a little thin (and a little like rocket fuel).
Any ideas how to approach this...if its a problem. I'm fermenting with a second generation cake of Ardennes.
Are you adding any sugar in the boil? Most Belgians have sugar in them to keep things dry. Maybe you could just skip the sugar?
Regardless, it shouldn't taste like rocket fuel as long as you control the temperature. I like my Belgians on the thin side anyway (the monks call it "digestible") so I'd just proceed as planned.
I am guessing there is no way it is going to finish that low. I really doubt over-attenuation will be an issue here. Just pitch enough yeast and pay attention to your fermentation temps and I bet it will be great.
I'm not planning on doing anything until its done fermenting, just trolling for ideas on how to deal with a potential problem. One other thought I had was to make sure to have really low carbonation for serving it (kegging it). Was also wondering about a small amount of lactose...etc.
Really low carb on a Belgian? No way. I like my Belgians dry and with a ton of carbonation, and I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one.
If you pitched enough yeast, controlled the temp you should be just fine. Belgians can go low and still taste great. Or as was mentioned by another poster the Belgians refer to it as digestable. I just did a quad that had an OG of 1.097 and it is at 1.010 right now. I tasted the gravity sample and it is great.
I agree with zachattack...dry with a lot of carbonation is fine.
Thanks guys...only my second attempt at this, and my first attempt was pretty good, though I used 1214 to ferment. Wanted to get one going, and had a fresh yeast cake of Ardennes. Any thoughts on the yeast? It's been aerated and sitting at 65F right now....let it ferment there for 2-3 days and then free rise til its finished.
Why spend 5 minutes reading when you can just start another thread?
I agree with the above posts: let the fermentation temperature rise and add simple sugars to the recipe. You won't dry the beer out too much.

I came across a baptismal record for Joseph Wilfred Sevigny on Sept 10 1900 at Jean-Baptiste Montreal, Quebec.
His parents were Wallace Sevigny and Georginna Roger. His godparents were Wilfred Roger and Jeanne Roger. After Wallace S's name is "Jevibe" or "Jevitie", I don't know what that means. It might be that the couple were married in the States and if you find a free place to get US marriages, please let me know!!!
Maybe this helps you,

A letter from the Director continued
Bread Loaf is not a retreat—not a place to work in solitude. Instead it provides a stimulating community of diverse voices in which we test our own assumptions regarding literature and seek advice about our progress as writers.
In August we will again welcome more than two hundred talented writers to the historic Bread Loaf Inn, along with our distinguished faculty, and many agents and editors from major publishing houses and literary firms.
Come prepared to join fully in the busy schedule and to enjoy the beauty of the wilderness setting. No one who has done so has failed to be inspired, encouraged, or changed by Bread Loaf.

Past, present and future of Dominican athletics
Updated: August 2, 2003, 6:38 PM ETAssociated Press
SANTO DOMINGO, Dominican Republic -- Luis Pujols stepped up to the plate, called his shot and brought the Pan American Games to a sizzling start.
The nephew of the San Francisco Giants coach of the same name, dressed in a Dominican baseball uniform, swung a bat at a baseball sitting atop a mini-flame in the field at the Olympic Stadium. That triggered a wire extending across the stadium to the games cauldron, which then ignited to resounding cheers.
Moments earlier, Juan Marichal, ...

Brewed this a couple years back and was a big hit. Just finished a batch this afternoon-looking forward to it again!
This one is going on my list...
Bottled last week and tried last night. Carbonated well and tastes great! Coloring lighter than expected and orange flavor not as strong as expected, however, great flavor! Will definitely brew again and will post a picture next time I pop one open (later today for sure)!
Nice. I'll be bottling mine today.
Found this while reading an old Popular Mechanics slide. Must brew now!
Looks like I'll be brewing this again on Sunday. Last time I did it with Valencias, extract and bottles. This time, blood oranges, all-grain and kegged. I'll post pics hopefully in about 3-4 weeks when I'm drinking it.
I'm picking up everything to brew today -- also my first all-grain (BIAB) so hopefully I won't screw it up

Thank you, Mr. Mayor, for using my hard earned tax dollars for the improvements to city hall. I know you did it all for the good hard working people of Fall River.
So in that case I'll be up to take a shower in our nice new bathroom. I was just wondering, what kind of work do you do up there that you need to take a shower afterward?
Don't tell me you bought us some gym equipment too? Hmm. William Herndon Fall River

Our weekly roundup of the most intriguing articles about cities and urbanism we've come across in the past seven days.
How good things once were!
A scale model of the troubled airport project was completed before the original.
A surprisingly large number involve cars.
Gum architecture doesn't stand the test of time, but that's what Jérémy Laffon likes about it.
It's about 100 times worse than listening to music without headphones.
Shorter city pride.
Mike Doyle's model uses 200,000 LEGOs; it's the first in a series of thematically-linked works.
Real-life graffiti artists star in this fake 32-bit arcade game taking place in cities across North America.
The social life of Yangon takes place in sidewalk cafes. But they're in danger of disappearing as the city embarks on a road-widening effort.
Two years of Reagan's youth wasn't enough to save this apartment house.
He pioneered the study of how people convey and conceal meaning and social standing with words, intonations, and accents.
Probably not, but that didn't stop one artist in Milan from standing outside the station slapping skin all day.
Visions for sustainable building in the education system courtesy the National Building Museum.
Artists in Madrid railed against the "destruction" of the Games with artwork made from what looks like Molotov cocktails.
Burning boats, foam-covered students, and a good old-fashioned joust.
San Francisco just got a little less whimsical.
Linguists are still trying to understand the surprising evolution of how Philadelphians speak.

Student parking at Nashua high schools a concern
Alderman Richard Dowd, Ward 2, is sponsoring the recommended ordinance in an effort to address parking concerns from school administrators.
Although parking permits are required, Dowd said there is still a problem with students parking on school grounds without permits.
Alderman Ken Siegel, Ward 9, said Dowd's proposal could have unintended consequences as it is currently written. While Siegel said he is sympathetic to the lack of student parking at the schools, he said the proposed ordinance should include more explanation and detail.
The school district is prepared to purchase and install signs for the schools explaining the parking rules, which are only mandated during school hours when school is in session, he said.

This disclosure is related to a braking system in a motor vehicle.
A vehicle operator has an expectation that a particular depression of a brake pedal will result in a particular deceleration of the vehicle. If braking conditions are such that the vehicle requires more braking force than usual to decelerate, an operator may not correctly anticipate the added application of force required to decelerate the vehicle. Upon realizing an urgent need to increase braking force, the driver may apply excess force to the brake pedal, thereby greatly increasing the opportunity for the wheels of the vehicle to lock up or lose lateral stability as the vehicle slows.
It is, therefore, desirable to provide a method of braking control whereby performance of a braking system to decelerate a vehicle is controlled to produce a consistent relationship between a brake pedal input and vehicle deceleration irrespective of braking conditions, such as road slope or vehicle loading.
A method for controlling braking in a vehicle includes receiving a brake pedal input, modulating this brake pedal input by a feedback gain and a feed forward gain to create a modulated brake pedal input, and braking the vehicle based upon the modulated brake pedal input. The modulated brake pedal input is operative to produce a consistent relationship between the brake pedal input and a deceleration of the vehicle.
One or more embodiments will now be described, by way of example, with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which:
Referring now to the drawings, wherein the showings are for the purpose of illustrating certain exemplary embodiments only and not for the purpose of limiting the same,
Both road slope and vehicle loading have effects upon the braking operation of vehicle 10. A vehicle going downhill, with the same braking action applied by braking-torque generating system 50, may take much longer to stop than a vehicle going on a level road. Likewise, a heavily loaded vehicle, with the same braking action applied by braking-torque generating system 50, may take much longer to stop than a lightly loaded vehicle. Known systems apply a particular braking action for a particular brake pedal input; therefore, with the same pedal input, a known vehicle will take much longer to stop under adverse braking conditions than it would normally. If an operator fails to anticipate the need for more aggressive brake pedal input force to account for vehicle load or road grade conditions, a longer than anticipated stopping distance may result. The present disclosure applies an algorithm utilizing feedback control and a feed forward control to compensate for varying braking conditions.
Information related to varying brake conditions such as road slope and vehicle loading is developed from data system 60. Data system 60 includes modules operable to provide data inputs related to the operation of vehicle 10 to brake control module 40. Data system 60 generates data related to the road slope on which vehicle 10 is traveling. Road slope for vehicle 10 may be quantified through the use of a slope indication system 64 or a global positioning system 66. Slope indication system 64 includes devices and methods capable of measuring the inclination angle of the vehicle with respect to level. Global positioning system 66 may generate road slope data through lookup values for a given section of road. A preferred embodiment utilizes slope indication system 64 and global positioning system 66 together to increase accuracy of the road slope data.
Vehicle loading encompasses forces applied to vehicle 10, and include effects of mass within the vehicle, objects placed under tow, wind and drag forces, and other such factors. A load adaptation factor may be estimated based upon the net difference between actual braking operation of the vehicle and expected braking operation for a given brake pedal input. This net difference in braking operation may be calculated by processing data related to braking deceleration of vehicle 10. Deceleration data is generated by data system 60 through the use of accelerometer 62 or global positioning system 66. Accelerometer 62 is a device that measures the rate of change of speed for an object. Global positioning system 66 generates a detailed location of vehicle 10 at any time. Deceleration or negative acceleration is a simple second order function of location data, and any processor, such as the processor in brake control module 40 or a processor resident to global positioning system 66, can generate deceleration data on the basis of a stream of vehicle location data. A preferred embodiment utilizes accelerometer 62 and global positioning system 66 together to increase accuracy of the deceleration data.
As aforementioned, brake control module 40 utilizes a feedback control system and a feed forward control system to compensate or modulate the brake pedal input for varying road slope and vehicle loading. Feedback control systems are systems which generate an output, and then the output of the system is analyzed and fed back to modify the parameters of the system to correct the output toward a desired reference value. Through feedback control, a system may be corrective: as outputs are iteratively generated, the system is modified to drive down the error between the output and the reference value.
As applied to braking system 20, feedback control may be utilized to correct for recurring anomalies in the braking of vehicle 10. For example, a vehicle containing excess mass due to a heavy load will consistently take longer to stop than a vehicle with normal mass under the same conditions. A feedback control system within a brake control module 40 evaluates errors between actual braking performance data and expected braking performance from reference data for a given brake pedal input, and the feedback control system adds a compensation factor in the form of feedback gain to the brake pedal input to reduce future braking errors.
While feedback systems correct errors based upon the output of the system, feed forward systems react to varying inputs in the braking conditions before any output results are generated. By comparing these operating conditions to typical values, the system may anticipate the effects of the variant conditions upon system performance. For instance, a unit may have a lookup table estimating that an environmental temperature of twenty degrees above normal will require an increase of X % to parameter A to maintain a normal output. In this way, a feed forward system may adjust proactively, not allowing the output to suffer initial errors before adjusting. Feed forward systems frequently incorporate machine learning algorithms. Machine learning algorithms are algorithms that adjust internal parameters incrementally over numerous system cycles to a certain input reading. If this particular input is consistently lower than an anticipated default value, the parameters of the algorithm can be slowly adjusted to fit this lower input value in advance. If an input varying by a certain amount from a typical value tends to produce results with a predictable error, the algorithm can be adjusted to anticipate and correct for the error. By utilizing these techniques, a feed forward system may reduce output errors of a system by taking variable inputs into account.
Applied to the present disclosure, a feed forward control system is utilized to anticipate the effects of road slope and vehicle loading upon braking system 20. The algorithm within brake control module 40 receives inputs related to road slope and vehicle loading. The road slope input from data system 60 is processed by brake control module 40 to develop a road slope factor. Input related to vehicle deceleration is used to estimate the load adaptation factor. Together, the road slope factor and the load adaptation factor are applied to the brake pedal input as a feed forward gain.
Within a given brake control adaptation cycle, the load adaptation factor is determined through a learning cycle. At step 104 corresponding to the initiation of a brake control adaptation cycle, a default value for the load adaptation factor is loaded and a learning value is initially set to incomplete. In one embodiment, the default value for the load adaptation factor is a pre-set lookup value, for example a value corresponding to nominal conditions (i.e. level grade and nominal load). In another embodiment, the default value of the load adaptation factor is the last load adaptation factor value used during the previous brake control adaptation cycle. As vehicle 10 brakes for the first time in the brake control adaptation cycle, the default value for the load adaptation factor is applied to the feed forward gain at step 106. Because the learning cycle is initially set to incomplete, a learning cycle comprising steps 108 through 114 is initiated. Values for feedback gain from the feedback control system and brake pedal input are read at steps 108 and 110, respectively, and these values are then fed through a load adaptation factor function at step 112 to generate an updated load adaptation factor. Recalling that feedback gain is developed as a response to errors in deceleration performance data as compared to expected or reference values for a given brake pedal input, trends in the feedback gain indicating trends in braking performance may be used to estimate non-nominal forces acting upon the vehicle during braking events. These non-nominal forces cause a net loading effect upon vehicle 10 during braking events, and data regarding these non-nominal forces may be processed to estimate the load adaptation factor. The load adaptation factor function used at step 112 to develop the load adaptation factor may take many forms, may require multiple iterations of the learning cycle to improve accuracy of the estimation, and may include machine learning algorithms. One preferred embodiment of the load adaptation factor function is described below and in
After the load adaptation factor is updated in step 112, step 114 then determines whether certain criteria are met such that the learning value should be set to complete. If the learning value is set to complete, no further updates to the load adaptation factor are performed for the remainder of the brake control adaptation cycle. If the learning value remains incomplete, then the learning cycle reiterates at the next braking event. The criteria for defining the number of iterations required to set the learning value to complete can be based on several factors: a single iteration can be used if testing shows that the first iteration is usually accurate for a particular vehicle application; multiple iterations can be utilized for a vehicle with complex characteristics or for a vehicle that changes load characteristics over the span of a brake control adaptation cycle. A preferred embodiment utilizes a pre-set fixed learning counter set to determine a set number of learning cycle iterations to be run for each brake control adaptation cycle. Another embodiment could track changes in the load adaptation factor and set the learning value to complete only when updates become small from iteration to iteration. Many embodiments of the criteria for setting the learning value to complete are envisioned, and the disclosure should not be limited to the exemplary embodiments described herein.
In any depression of the brake pedal, the feedback control gain and the feed forward control gain are applied by brake control module 40 to the brake pedal input to generate a modulated brake pedal input. The modulated brake pedal input corresponds to a particular intention of the operator to decelerate vehicle 10 at a typical rate and culminates in braking forces being generated in accordance with the magnitude of the modulated brake pedal input. Brake control module 40, utilizing the feedback control system and the feed forward control system described above, receives the brake pedal input and corrects the operation of braking system 20 in order to normalize the distance required to stop vehicle 10 as closely as possible to the distance required to stop the same vehicle in a nominally loaded condition on a flat road.
An exemplary embodiment of the algorithm used by brake control module 40 to implement the control methods discussed above is depicted in
The disclosure has described certain preferred embodiments and modifications thereto. Further modifications and alterations may occur to others upon reading and understanding the specification. Therefore, it is intended that the disclosure not be limited to the particular embodiment(s) disclosed as the best mode contemplated for carrying out this disclosure, but that the disclosure will include all embodiments falling within the scope of the appended claims.

I have a requirement like this...
Need to execute a java prepared statement example:
String sql = "select first_name from student where roll_no :=1";
But the problem is, sometimes there can be NO rows in the table for the above query.
In that case, I want to query the 2nd table say
student2. Hence the sql query will be now:
String sql2 = "select first_name from student2 where roll_no :=1";
Is there a way to achieve this condition of selecting from another
table(student2) in a single sql query.
I want something like this pseudo code:
String sql = "if student1 table doesn't have a roll_num, then query student2 table";

After a couple of days of speculations, the contract between Jim Ross and Fox Sports has been finalized and signed. While his official role with the company has yet to be revealed, the long time WWE commentator has posted a new article about the Royal Rumble on their website.
"I honestly don't know. Nobody ever had that discussion with me. So to me, it's interesting. I just go out there and do the best I can. But I think that might have certainly played a part in it. And especially, man, that was awesome, seeing it. So, Titus ONeil, he had texted me. He said, 'Dude, if you're in your hotel room, you have to turn on SportsCenter. I think they'll replay it in probably about 15 minutes.' And he didn't tell me what it was, but he just told me that I was mentioned. And then I saw it, and they mentioned me and the whole Michigan State basketball thing doing the thing, and I was like wow. That's really cool. And the guy that actually started it, he's going to be coming to the show tonight with three of the guys from, I think, three of the guys from the football team. I don't know if that's true, or if it's just three of his buddies. But he is from the football team, so he's going to be coming. It'll be pretty neat to meet him."
- Daniel Bryan
Darren Young and Titus ONeil are down in Miami today, working on that rumored television show for the WWE Network. No word yet on what the show will be about, but the Prime Time Players are wearing suits on the set. There are talks that it could be a sports related show.
Jim Ross has revealed through Twitter that he is extremely close to finalizing a deal with FoxSports.com. The longtime WWE announcer has already started writing for their website, and while no further details have been released about the contract, it is believed that he will have a column online.
JBL is a pretty ambitious individual. The WWE commentator will be attempting to climb Mt Elbrus again in July. He had previous attempted the feat, but severe weather conditions in Russia forced him and his fellow climbers to give up on the trek before they made it to the peak.
In an interesting move, NFL AM had the Bella Twins on the show this morning, and the twin WWE divas discussed the Philadelphia Eagles.
While most wrestling fans know him as Captain Lou Albano, very few know about the origin of the nickname. As a youth, he excelled in sports, where he rose to the ranks of captain of his high school football team. It was there when people started calling him Captain.
Even though he suffered another concussion and is awaiting further tests from a specialist, it appears that Dolph Ziggler will still be working for WWE, as the former World Heavyweight Champion has been booked for an appearance with the Miz at a Cleveland Cavaliers game.
"I have not yet signed with Fox but we are obviously close and are hopeful that we can finalize the contract next week. Fox provides an amazing platform for creative work and for the many projects that I am working on during the most unretired time of my life. Fox has some potentially, amazing creative ideas for me of which I hope that we get to collaborate on sooner than later."
"First of all, I want people to realize that it is hard to see all the old stars come back to Hall of Fame stuff and me not be included in all these things. I accomplished more than anyone in 2 years at WWF and I was part of one of the biggest match that started the attitude era with Bret Hart vs. Steve Austin. That match changed wrestling to what it is today. There is not a peep from anyone within WWE. I don't know why they won't give me a shot in the WWE and to challenge for the WWE title. I have reached out through many different types of media and the only thing I've heard back is that they're doing okay and don't need me. I say that if you're gonna be bringing people back from the attitude era and before that then I don't understand why you wouldn't bring me back. There seems to be a black mark against me and I don't understand it."
- Ken Shamrock on potential WWE return
Since news has surfaced that Ken Shamrock is now working as a security guard, many are starting to question his net worth. Some sources are stating that the former UFC champion is worth approximately $1.5 million, but many believe that it is much lower than that.
TMZ has revealed that Ken Shamrock is now a bodyguard, and the former UFC champion was spotted at an event in Las Vegas protecting 50 Cent. Shamrock is actually working for an agency and is not currently working full time for the rapper.

Loved the salmon and the hangar steak (which was prepared perfectly medium rare!) and the yummy semi-freddo peanut butter dessert was incredible!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Late at nightcpkuDined on 11/15/2014We were looking for a late night small dinner in the Seal Beach area and found 320 Main on Open Table. It was perfect. We sat outside on the small patio and enjoyed a nice evening. Emily our server did an excellent job. We enjoyed a bottle of wine, lamb ribs, kale salad and cioppino. My husband loves lam and the sauce on them was really good. The kale salad was tasty and filling, really a great flavor and a little crunch and substance with the addition of pine nuts, breadcrumbs and pickled red onion. The soup was very good too, very tomatoey, with a nice slab of good toast and butter alongside. A good choice!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Small shop, big tasteOpenTable Diner Since 2008Dined on 9/24/2014This restaurant is on the smaller end, so if you have a big group then make sure you get a reservation. They have very good appetizers -- we got everything, the mac & cheese, kale salad, bone marrow, duck fries, and fried cauliflower. Everything we had was delicious, especially the mac & cheese and bone marrow.Special Features:
- Getting BetterspecialRiderVIPDined on 9/21/2014Has a quirky menu, but I like quirky. I ordered Duck Toast with goat cheese mousse, black fig, duck leg confit, and also Farro & Mushroom Risotto. And Vanilla Mascarpone Semifreddo for dessert. But they also serve cheeseburgers.
- not worth the moneyDavebDined on 9/20/2014I was looking forward to a nice big juicy Rib eye. For the price of $30 that's what I expected. Instead I got a little thin piece of something that looked like Dennys would serve it for 8.99. No salad, no bread. I want impressed at all. Probably will not be back. If I do it will not be for the steak.
- It spoiled the entire eveningMarcDined on 9/16/2014Considering this chef's pedigree, i.e. Thomas Keller and Charlie Palmer, I would have thought the wine list would have been at least a little better. It could be best described as "pitiful at best", as were the wine glasses. Corkage is only $10, so I would suggest you bring your own wine, and glasses. That all being said, with the exception of the Osso Buco being over cooked, the pork chop, rib eye, duck fries, duck on toast, and octopus salad were outstanding. Even the dessert would have been excellent, if it hadn't been ruined by the annoyingly loud music that started around 8 PM. Definitely won't come in for a late dinner again. But I guess that's Seal Beach!Special Features:

- Good foodOpenTable Diner Since 2008Dined on 7/19/2014Had a great dinner here with my kids. Nice little restaurant. Drinks were good, the food was excellent, dessert was very good. Not too many entrée options if you are not a meat eater, so be aware if someone in your party requires that. Grilled octopus salad was a hit, as were the steaks. Salmon was perfect. Presentation was nice, and I must say the service was impeccable. Our waitress was very friendly, made some great recommendations, and was attentive, but not overbearing. Really a great experience overall. One small thing to note: we sat in a booth and the table seemed a little too high, not uncomfortably so, but enough that all my (nearly adult) kids commented on it. You may want to opt for a table instead of a booth in some cases.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Over Priced with Poor Service.OpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 5/3/2014They changed the chefs in the kitchen and the menu too. Drinks where priced as if I was in Hawaii along with poor service just made for a very bad experience. Originally the four of us where going to have dinner there but decided to leave after our drinks and appetizers. Sad to report that the changes they made where not for the better.
- Salty foodrblythinDined on 5/2/2014Has pasta dish which was very good, but need to dial back on the salt. Coctails are prefect. The wine list is small but the quality is as good as you will find anywhere.Special Features:
- Cocktail HeavenWimby43VIPDined on 4/20/2014The food is very good, the small plate and appetizers can make up a meal. The cocktails are exceptional. On certain nights the noise level can be very high, but it is always accompanied by high energy.Special Features:

- We have celebrated 2 anniversariesOpenTable Diner Since 2013Dined on 4/2/2014We have celebrated 2 anniversaries and 2 birthdays at 320 Main and it is always excellent. We have the Old Cubans, always. This time the menu had been changed and our server Kristen made recommendations and she was spot on. The Scottish Salmon and the Kale Salad were great but the bacon wrapped dates we had as appetizers were FABULOUS!! Then we tasted heaven with the Brown Sugar cake. OMG!! The real gem of 320 Main is Kristen our server and all of the staff.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Lunch was classy but not stuffyOpenTable Diner Since 2005Dined on 3/18/2014We needed a place that had good food, nice wines and beers but was quiet and less casual than most of the beach spots. 320 was a great find. The food was terrific, the desserts were appropriate and the serving portions weren't overloaded. For a classy but not stuffy meeting place, 320 was very nice.Special Features:
- Great cocktails, good food.lovgoodfoodDined on 3/15/2014We had a reservation and as soon as we arrived we were seated in a booth with a smile. The ambiance was good though the view at the open kitchen with its bright lighting is not too appealing. The room is pretty bare and could use more decor. The service was fast and the cocktails yummy (Negroni's loss and MaiTai). The food was good to very good to our taste (we had duck fries, gnocchi and salmon). We will come back!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Simply a great cocktail bar,OpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 3/15/2014Simply a great cocktail bar, which is rare given all the attention for wine and now beer everywhere. The overall menu is somewhat limited and just enough to make you not just have drinks and go somewhere else.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
