- Exceptional RestaurantFranDined on 11/15/2014Union Park is a beautiful dining room with impeccable service. The food was excellent and beautifully presented. We brought our own wine but there is wine available from a local winery - no liquor license. My only complaint was the size of the table. It was very small and I felt that I had to constantly rearrange it during the meal. Desserts are pricey but very good. This is probably not a good place for children unless they are adventuresome eaters.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- ServiceDeecpDined on 11/8/2014service was lacking... Barely saw our waitress and the restaurant was not crowded.Special Features:
- OpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 11/8/2014Outstanding food. Service was impeccable. Looking forward to going back.Special Features:
- Wonderful!CMFoodieVIPDined on 11/8/2014Dinner was great. We entertained two other couples for dinner. Recommended the short ribs and we were not disappointed...always good. We were the last people in the dining room and the staff was very patient and cool about it...never rushed us.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great VenisonOpenTable Diner Since 2005Dined on 11/8/2014We were in CApe May for the JAzz Fest and we wanted a nice, quiet place for a good dinner,, they delivered on all counts. I ordered a venison special, encrusted with cocoa and espresso It was wonderful. The crabcakes were average. It is a bit on the pricey side but worth it. The tuna tartare and ceaser salad were very good.Special Features:
- Friendly and deliciousMomonthetownDined on 11/8/2014The scallop appetizer I had was a wonderful mix of tangy and savory and my short ribs were delicious. The green beans were lightly steamed and crisp (just the way I like them) and the profiteroles were generously portioned with rich homemade ice cream. I'd definitely done here again!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Thanks!!!!ChefMarcDined on 11/7/2014Food and experience were great. We will be recommending and coming back. Great effort to make the food experience fantastic.Special Features:
- make sure to ask for specialsgraham29Dined on 11/7/2014We neglected to ask for specials over and beyond the "economy" offering. The waiter forgot to tell me they had venison, which I would have ordered in a minute. The lower-price meal was a bit different but enjoyable and worth the price. Still one of our favorites in Cape May.I would recommend this to a friend.
- Very pleased.George1031Dined on 10/25/2014This was our first time dining at Union Park and were very pleased with our decision. We often dine at other Cape May restaurants but always enjoy trying something new. The food was excellent and prepared as described. Our server was attentive and very knowledgeable about the preparation of the food. We will certainly revisit Union Park.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Nothing special for the high costKageylDined on 10/25/2014Not our first trip here. Last time food was great and special. This time it was ok and very expensive. Caeser salad was plain romaine on plate and dressing on side as I requested. Not a place to return to.Special Features:
- I only wish it was closer to home..BeenthereDined on 10/18/2014Excellent meal at Union Park last weekend. Very nice space. Manageable menu with all the usual selections. A couple of specials. Great service. This place is a winner, I only wish it was located closer to home, I would be a regular customer!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Disappointed this timeMdagDined on 10/18/2014I've dined here in the past and, honestly, I was disappointed this time. App of duck ravioli (won-ton style) was overcooked and dry. Entrée of dry-aged NY Strip steak was tough, chewy and not very flavorful. But for the gorgonzola topping and the demi-glace, it would have been close to inedible. Sorry, but this time Union Park was not up to par.Special Features:
- linybug1Dined on 10/17/2014DISAPPOINTED never returning to Union Park, I don't make the same mistake twice!!
- excellent eveningCruiseManVIPDined on 10/17/2014we enjoyed our recent visit to Union Park as much as prior visits. I was leery of the Caesar salad because I don't like anchovies, but our server Jen assured me they were not detectable. I tried it & she was spot on- the lemon garlic dressing was great. The Filet was also wonderful. My wife tried the duck raviolis & the short ribs and was equally impressed. The menu is consistently good. We will be back soon for more!Special Features:
- A Very Nice MealTrinetteDined on 10/3/2014The foie gras was deliciously prepared with a reduction of balsamic glaze, fresh black fig & poached minced pear. Very good. The scallop special was slightly overcooked making the scallop chewy. Risotto, roasted corn & asparagus added texture & flavor as did the garlic/basil infused olive oil. Nice. The Ice Cream Sandwich, a scoop of Nutella ice cream, homemade chocolate macaroon cookies drizzled with salted caramel. The cookies were well flavored but required a knife. The caramel, while tasty, overwhelmed the ice cream which was inadequately flavored. Just Ok. Service is attentive yet the staff holds to a level of decorum that gives an atmosphere of being standoffish & too formal. Genuine warmness would make guests feel more welcome.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Below AverageDbf22VIPDined on 9/27/2014Honestly, it's not worth a comment. I do have to mention that we were 4 guests and 2 had enjoyed their rack of lamb. But service was very poor and food as a whole was below average and priced way to high.
- andrewDined on 9/27/2014Its like having dinner in the white house, excellent.Special Features:
- Great ExperienceSJvetDined on 9/26/2014Everyone at our table thought their food was delicious. Strangely, I ordered the scallop special, and I say that because I'm not a big fan. These, however, were delicious, and very tender, cooked to perfection. The risotto was also wonderful, some of the best I've had. My wife said her lobster tails had great flavor and were very tender. We also tried an appetizer for the table, which had assorted meats (duck, proscuitto, salami), as well as foie gras and other items. For dessert I opted for the raspberry sorbet, very flavorful, garnished with blueberries, strawberries, and a single blackberry. Only complaint was the number of steps I had to climb, as my health is not great.Special Features:
- Second choice24dinnerDined on 9/20/2014We had the unfortunate situation of going on a fully packed night where there was a wedding party. While the food was good-excellent the service and the attentiveness was coldly professional as well as the heightened noise levels. I would assume the ambiance ,etc. would be significantly more evident on another night.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- edm444Dined on 9/18/2014My wife and I have eaten here three times and each time has been excellent. Very creative food presentations with high quality ingredients and a very pleasant atmosphere.Special Features:
- A quiet dinner for twoPJRspecialsDined on 9/17/2014Large elegant room but only 4 tables occupied (off season). Disappointed with food because a) not thoroughly cooked as requested and b) too many flavors covering up the taste of the meat entrée. Although a BYOB restaurant, there was a short wine list by the bottle, including one half bottle of mixed reds, which was very nice. Shirley, our server, was efficient but I thought she was bored, maybe due to the lack of customers.Special Features:
- Union Park ResteurantOpenTable Diner Since 2010Dined on 9/14/2014This is a must visit restaurant, Cape May has the best collection of restaurants in NJ. Yes NJ has great restaurants but they are scattered around the state. The food is wonderful and we will go again.Special Features:
- Very Nice Elegant DinningJmactekDined on 9/14/2014Very Nice great atmosphere the service was excellent food was very good.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great BYO...RedWineLoverVIPDined on 9/13/2014The four of us split the Fig and Gorgonzola and the crab cake appetizer, both were outstanding. Everyone had a different meal, Seared scallops, Australian Lamb, Short Ribs, and the Australian Sea Bass… all four entrees were simply amazing. Service was absolutely perfect and to top it off, its a BYO.Special Features:
- Nice restaurantNewhopedinerDined on 9/11/2014We dine at Union Park whenever we visit cape May and are never disappointed. The food is delicious with good menu choices plus daily specials. Try the short rib. Our server was Elizabeth who provided us with excellent table service. The Victorian decor offers a nice relaxed atmosphere without feeling rushed. We look forward to our next visit.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- The food was only okayEllenaDined on 9/10/2014It is a lovely setting, in a Victorian-type setting facing the ocean. But the food was inconsistent -- some of it was really good and some of it was only decent. It is all a bit fussy and stuffy, and better suited to the many senior citizens dining there. But I thought the food would be much better than it was for the price. A bit disappointing.Special Features:
- Very good BYOB restaurantsjgkmgVIPDined on 9/8/2014This was our first meal in Cape May and Union Park didn't disappoint. We ate in the dining room which is lovely. For an appetizer we shared the Duck Charcuterie which was being offered as a special. The duck was prepared five ways with the foie gras being exceptional. My husband had a dozen oysters for dinner and I enjoyed the short rib entree. Unfortunately we were too full to order dessert. We will certainly dine here again.Special Features:
- Not the best this time.Food4ThoughtDined on 9/8/2014We have been dining at this restaurant for years when vacationing in Cape May. This year I'm not sure it was quite as good as other years. My mother had the lobster which was not served with butter and she would have liked to request butter, however, our server never returned to the table until we were finished eating. I ordered a filet cooked medium that was more medium well and rather tough. It was dissappointing. My husband had the lamb and dad had the scallops and they both thought they were good. The deserts were nothing unique as they had been in the past. My husband and I shared a chocholate layer cake that seemed like it had been frozen..not fresh. Something was just off in the restaurant this time.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Standard excellenceJackVIPDined on 9/7/2014Awesome AGAIN!!! Every time we dine at Union Park they improve on their already high standard of excellence. The fresh fig appetizer was creative, perfectly prepared and spectacular. The best Caesar salad ever. My NY strip and my wife's filet mignon were absolutely perfect. Can't wait for our next visit. Standard excellence repeated.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Top notchGOurmetDined on 9/6/2014Superb cuisine in a beautiful room. Each dish was superbly prepared.Special Features:
- DaisygirlDined on 9/6/2014The early seating menu is a real bargain. The food is delicious, the presentation looks like the cover of Food and Wine. We look forward to chatting with our server about his homeland of Bulgaria. On a hot, muggy night, there was a refreshing breeze on the porch where we ate. Union Park stands out in a city with many fine restaurants.Special Features:
- ExcellentOpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 9/5/2014Great good and service. Higher end restaurant but worth it. Def. go backSpecial Features:
- Another Gem in Cape MaySueCDined on 9/3/2014We came to the restaurant on recommendations from Zagat's and we were not disappointed. We had 2 of the fish specials (scallops and barramundi) and they were excellent. The food was well prepared and beautifully presented and our server and the staff was very attentive but not overbearing. Portions were a nice size. We also had appetizers, but didn't have room for dessert, unfortunately, but they all sounded wonderful. We went to the restaurant during the week just after labor day; it wasn't difficult finding parking although that may not be the case during the height of the season. You are able to bring your own wine, which is always a plus, but if you forget, they do also sell wine from a Cape May winery by the bottle.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- ExcellentOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 9/3/2014The experience could not have been better; will recommend to all.....Special Features:
- Our second timeJerseygirlVIPDined on 9/1/2014Our second time and was even better. We started with the oysters which were incredible!! Then we had a the salad special which was a warm fig salad which was excellent. I love that they only serve local wines. It's fun to try some new and local. I had the salmon dinner with goat cheese cake. The goat cheese cake was my favorite and the salmon was perfectly done. Moist not dry. Boyfriend got the baby lamb chops and said was one of the best he ever had. We left very happy and are planning our third visitSpecial Features:
- Best dinner all summerMediaDinerVIPDined on 8/31/2014Had an absolutely fabulous dinner at Union Park last weekend. Every one of our entrees was excellent, from scallops to short rib to filet mignon. This is now the best fine-dining option in Cape May, and being BYOB, is a lot cheaper than its competition.Special Features:
- Union Park - not to be missedCharliePDined on 8/27/2014My wife and I ate on the porch this past week and it was an amazing experience. From the fig, marscapone, and prosciutto ans scallop appetizers to the lobster tail and salmon main courses, one was better than the other. Service was attentive, professional, and not overbearing. We never felt rushed and enjoyed very minute. There are so many dinner choices in Cape May. Union Park should be right at the top!Special Features:
- Never DisappointedCMPointDined on 8/25/2014We have only been to Union Park a couple times and have sat on the porch which is nice because you can watch the activity around town but next time will try to sit inside because it is very pretty. We split the Field Greens which were very good and just enough. We each had the Filet and it was the best Filet I have ever had. Cooked just right, had great flavor and was so tender. We even splurged for dessert - the ice cream sandwich (not the traditional) and crème brulee which we both excellent.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Cape May GembillypDined on 8/22/2014We visit Cape May often and always visit Union Park, especially if we are with friends or family who have never been there. The restaurant is beautiful. The service is impeccable. And the food is always fantastic. You won't be disappointed , ever.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- CJRKDined on 8/20/2014We ate in 4 restaurants in Cape May during our week long vacation and if I had to rate them in numerical order, Union Park would come in 4th. It wasn't bad; it just wasn't great. The portions were quite small for the price. We passed on dessert because there just wasn't anything unusual or unique about them. I felt like this was a restaurant that was a little tired - they need to "kick it up a notch".

As a parent of two UCDS alums who still has one child currently enrolled at this school, I feel well versed about their curriculum and leadership. All three of my children have had incredible learning experiences at this school. In short, they are all well educated students who LOVE learning new things and appreciate the differences in people. The teachers are energetic and creative, always generating unique projects that inspire the children while challenging them at every turn. There is NO turnover at this school anywhere-that is true with the leadership, the teachers and the families!! It is very hard to get into this program-especially after kindergarten-but worth trying. If there are any unhappy posts on this site, it s because the school is very clear about what they do and don t do. If a family tries to change the philosophy of the school, they will help them find a different environment that better suits what they want. Being a current parent in several schools, the school s clarity around directional commitment is refreshing.

I might be a bit biased, but since I have worked here I have had a great experience. All of the teachers and other support staff are friendly and great with children. Teachers truly seem to care about the overall well-being of kids here, and the amount of activities and projects that take place is phenomenal. I wish all kids had the resources this school has.

My children attended UCDS last year. In the interest of full transparency for prospective parents (because the school is unlikely to make this information available to you), UCDS was investigated in 2013-14 by federal and state agencies. Search "UCDS USDOJ DEL" on Google. As you go through the application and tour process every independent school in Seattle will tout its diverse and progressive community and its strongly held values of inclusiveness and "meeting kids where they are." Some schools do a great job of it, but my opinion is that at UCDS this rhetoric does not match their policies or practices. I believe that the current administrative leaders at UCDS hold the school back from being the truly outstanding learning community that it could be, and that they reflect poorly on the children and families of UCDS as representatives to the Seattle community and to the nation. Knowing this, if I were again in the position of deciding where my children would receive their elementary schooling, I would be very reluctant to choose UCDS over the many other superb options in the greater-Seattle area until they straighten out their leadership problems. Good luck!

Great for status and bragging rights at your next wine tasting. School is infatuated with itself. The preschool and kindergarten is great, but as the kids get older and differences in abilities become greater, they do not individualize learning despite what they say. By the way, if you are sending your kids there because the Gates sent their kids there, be aware that they pulled their youngest out after first grade.

Last night, as we drove home from school, my 10-year old son asked me if we could pull up the Gettysburg Address when we got home. "It's really cool," he explained, "We read all about it this morning. Total game changer for our country." He and his 12-year old sister (a UCDS alumna) spent dinner talking about the Civil War and the country's continued work on equity. My husband and I listened as they asked each other clarifying questions and challenged one another's assumptions. Their curiosity and passion for both learning and understanding was on full display. This morning, they both left for school, armed with questions to take to their American history and classroom teachers respectively. This is what a UCDS education has done for our family. It has inspired engagement, curiosity, ownership and active learning in both of our children. It has given them deep foundations and identity as learners, community members and friends. It has shown them that learning happens everywhere and expects their participation. In our ten years as a family at the school, we have had countless interactions like the one above. We are thrilled.

As a former teacher, I never thought I would be totally happy with a school, yet everyday I am blown away with the experience my children are having. The teachers are thoughtful, creative, and innovative in their presentation of the curriculum. Everything is done in such a fun way that my children do not even realize they are learning. Additionally, I truly feel that the teachers know my kids and that they are creating individualized instruction that is the perfect match for my kids--not too hard, not too easy--just the right amount so that they have to work but are successful. Most importantly though, my kids love school. They are on their way to becoming life long learners. We feel honored to be part of this community.

UCDS is a perfect fit for our son. All schools are not right for every child and in our case, we found the perfect environment for him. We chose UCDS because the teachers tune into each child and give them stretch goals each and every day. The teachers practice a collaborative methodology where they work together to develop curriculum and share ideas. Never once have we been disappointed at the parent teacher conferences, in fact have been pleasantly surprised to hear of our son's progress with concepts far beyond what we would have ever imagined (basic algebra and reading in PreK). Our son's teacher genuinely adores him and takes the opportunity to share a short story with us about something he accomplished weekly, if not daily. You will never hear the word 'bully' in the school - instead the kids learn to process conflicts in a way that builds their relationships with expert guidance from their teachers. We have found the parent community to be warm, welcoming and inclusive. We are grateful that our son is receiving an excellent education, is learning to be an independent leader with self confidence and is a caring friend to his classmates.

UCDS provided our children with an exceptional education and they are thriving both academically and socially. Our two children attended UCDS from the age of three until they graduated as 5th graders. UCDS created an environment where they were excited to go to school each day. Now in middle school and high school we(and they) can see how prepared they are with solid academic skills and confident independence. They excel in many areas but more importantly when something is challenging they know how to ask questions and persevere. UCDS helped our children develop these skills from an early age and continued to build upon them throughout their 8 years. We couldn't be more thankful for the solid foundation UCDS provided for both our children.

Kids are challenged while in a fun, hands on, environment. The curriculum helps the children develop analytical skills in both academics and personal areas of development. I have never seen a staff so committed, they all value and know every child in the community. This school helps the children learn and be their best resulting in confident, creative, analytical kids.

Our family loves UCDS! We have been a part of the community for over 5 years. Our daughter tells us daily that she loves school and her teachers. This year the technology lab was moved into a new space called The EDGe (The Engineering and Design Garage). It s pretty cool how elementary kids are learning how to write code and create a 3D objects on a MakerBot printer!! Many educators in the Seattle area come to the school to learn how to be better teachers. I could go on and on about our experience as it s all been pretty positive. I have heard from some parents that it s difficult to meet other parents and families, and to that I say, put yourself out there and you will meet others.

We loved UCDS. Our son is now a 7th grader at an independent MS/HS and is doing very well. One of the greatest gifts from being at UCDS from preK-Fifth grade is how well he knows himself. He is doing well in school and reflects that there are a few things he notices other kids struggling with that he finds easy due to his experiences at UCDS. One example is in documenting his work and process at math. He explains that it comes naturally to him, he is used to it because that was how he did math at UCDS, never just writing the answer. He's certainly not perfect... Writing has always been his least favorite thing and he comtinues to have to work on this. But part of knowing himeself well is that he has confidence in what he does well and ackowledges what is hard for him. He is open to feedback and willing to work hard. Teachers are very committed to the kids and work hard to create challenging curriculum. There are always a small group of parents who want to have a say in the planning, but rather than trying to please this small group (who rarely agree with each other!) the teachers stay true to the values they clearly explain in their mission.

When we visited UCDS during our kindergarten search, we remember the parent groups having a UCDS 5th grader guide. The 5th grader answered questions and shared what they were studying. We were highly impressed at the confidence and ease the 5th grader displayed, conversing with all of us grown ups, with no teacher to aid them. We wanted our children to develop the same poise and assurance. As our own kids have Moved On from UCDS to middle school, we have seen their confidence and self knowledge take them to the next level. Their transition to middle school was close to seamless, they were excited for the new adventure and the opportunities that lay beyond. Thank you, UCDS.

We were disappointed to learn in our first conference after moving on from UCDS that our child has education gaps in critical areas. We were blindsided and never alerted to any deficiencies at UCDS. We're now told our child's performance in these areas isn't even passable. As a family, we never considered school to be all about academics and bought into the marketing that said children would be more well-rounded and collaborative coming out of UCDS. We dismissed the critiques about the children not learning many facts, leaving without basic skills, teacher quality variability and inexperience, and the fact that many children do afterschool enrichment whether advanced or remedial. We dismissed as thin-skinned all complaints about social and class hierarchy and the image-conscious staff. In retrospect, we now see this as a case of the Emperor's New Clothes. We were blinded by our devotion to the school's reputation and sang its praises despite not seeing the goods ourselves. We found too late that many of the critiques and others' experiences we had dismissed were grounded in reality. We're left scrambling to catch up and remediate several areas of concern. Disillusioned!

I was SO impressed with UCDS when I toured the school. When my child was accepted I was thrilled. The school is beautiful and the teachers were enthusiastic at first, but as the year progressed they seemed to check out. The school is liberal and embraces children for the wonderful beings they are ( or aren't) but in my opinion academically things are vague and and unfocused. My child who is fairly young said there was not enough challenging work. The teachers were awful at communicating and actually sort of distant and unwelcoming by the second half of the year. Big disappointment. Not an awful school but not as amazing as people think.

some people say that this school has a lack of social ability and honestly i could understand that but being a former student i have learned so much i loved milk and cookies and grandparents special friends day in the early elementary you get to explore the bamboo garden and ride bikes on the rainbow road. and in kindergarten you have a k-day where you go to the first floor and you learn about how the elementary school works. the first floor also goes camping this is a great social time for the kids. once your in the 4-5s the homework gets intense theres roughly five things to do per night which seems ridiculous for 4th and 5th graders the second floor goes on two overnight trips one in the fall and one in the spring the fifth graders do service learning projects where they get their last chance to give back to the school and then graduation comes and its amazing people are clapping and my aunt actually said this was the best graduation performance ever. nobody will come out of school perfect but at UCDS they get pretty close.
I have 3 children enrolled in UCDS and have never been anything but blown away with their curriculum, both social and academic, parent involvement, and diversity. My children have an understanding of diversity that spans beyond what people see on the outside and takes into account the true character of each individual. I know this is because of the education they have received at UCDS. The way they value each individual and teach to their strengths and challenges. The depth at which they learn about concepts in all subject areas is tremendous and as someone else previously commented, our dinner conversations continue to amaze me. I am a parent who has sought outside support for one of my children because the school recognized concerns that I could not recognize as their parent. The help they pointed us too has been essential, valuable, and I will thank the caring and astute teachers for their unending guidance and constant support forever as my children continue to grow. Well worth it and SUPER FUN!

There are many good things about UCDS - the innovative curriculum, the sense of ownership students have of the school, and the variety of programming. My daughter has a wide circle of friends and feels welcomed by the staff. The problem is that there is little value for parent input. It is difficult to communicate with teachers about issues with the curriculum - many students pay for outside tutoring - or bullying - and there are some behavior problems. Even so, my biggest disappointment is the failure for the school to have any teacher of color on staff. The only diversity is from the facility and cleaning staff. The students body has very few children of color. I go out of my way to expose my child to diversity in the community so she doesn't think the world looks this way.

My wife and I cannot be more pleased with the experiences our two children have had at UCDS. From Day one we have all felt a part of the UCDS community and from the stories about their day they share with us each evening I know we made the right decision. I have been very impressed with the degree of individualized attention they both receive and I can tell their individual needs are being met, both academically and socially. Whether in the classroom, spending time with the specialists, or participating in after school activities I can say with confidence that UCDS is by far the best choice for our kids. Also, I m sure everyone s experiences are different but in contrast to the previous parents comments we ve never felt that anything other than that the students and families take center stage at UCDS and feel the tuition is appropriate for what our children are taking away every day.
—Submitted by a parent
UCDS was very impressive at first, and we chose to send our children to the school. But after time, we discovered that they were more interested in their reputation and finances than the families. We left the school very disappointed with their program and do not recommend UCDS. Save your money - they'll most certainly be asking for more donations in addition to the steep price tag.
—Submitted by a parent
We strongly considered UCDS and were blown away by the facilities and how put together the place seemed to be. Soonafter, we got scared off by some parents we know who have taken their kids out of the program. The feedback we learned was that the school is so enamored with it's curriculum and the institution that the kids may not necessarily come first or pick up on some of the fundamentals. When we asked about this, the reaction we got was kind of chilly and dismissive (which only seemed to reinforce our concerns). To be fair, some of our friends have kept their kids there and are very satisfied. It's a beautiful school though and has a great reputation. I'd just recommend talking to a lot of parents and parents of recent grads to get the full picture.

After meeting on the set of I Am Number Four in summer 2010, British actor Alex Pettyfer quickly impressed Dianna Agron's Glee castmates during an August set visit. "He seems like a really nice guy," Agron's costar Jayma Mays told PEOPLE. By February 2011, engagement rumors swirled around the couple when Agron was spotted wearing a diamond band, but just days later the pair had mysteriously decided to call it quits.

Toes tap, soles crisscross, and ankles point and flex as pairs of dancers whirl across Arthur Murray's smooth floors, where Sacramento-area hoofers have practiced steps since 1947. A specialized curriculum imparts basics such as foot position and rhythm, as well as how to lead, follow, or trot across the ceiling during beginning classes, and eventually ushers students into bronze, silver, and competition-level gold classes. Graceful instructors certified through the World Professional Dance Teachers Association lead classes and events such as private lessons, group formation practices, core rhythms reviews, and weekly practice parties.
Ballroom and Latin dance instuctions, Swing, Salsa, Social and Dancesport, With or without partner, Wedding Dance
Named the 6th Best Thing to Do in Stamford by Mofflymedia.com, Metropolitan Dance Center was born of the combined experience and brainpower of John DePalma and Steven Dougherty—a television personality featured on America's Ballroom Challenge and a national dance champion, respectively—who've both garnered revered reputations within the ballroom community through their extensive knowledge and training. Backed by a team of certified instructors, they teach students to glide across the dance floor through their progressive curriculum, which is certified by the Dance Vision International Dance Association. They map students' progress as they teach them to sway and samba through Latin and ballroom moves during group and private lessons. They also help couples to perfect their first newlywed spin across the dance floor with private wedding-dance lessons customized to the beat of the couple's wedding song or first shared Morse-code message. The studio also hosts open practice sessions, allowing burgeoning dancers to mix and mingle, practicing their new dance moves to a variety of tunes in a comfortable environment.
The world reknown LYNN Academy of Irish dance & Fitness elevates children and the world through the power and grace of Irish Dance. With 4 locations in the tri-state area of NY, NJ & CT, the Academy produces champion Irish dancers at the regional, national & international levels while also teaching performance routines.
Over the course of four weekly scheduled dance classes, Maria Fiora's energetic instructors guide kids through graceful, rhythmic steps while divulging the secrets of mastering specific dance techniques. Monday evening's hip-hop classes teach pupils ages 7–12 the art of popping and locking, providing an arsenal of new moves to flaunt at school dances and after-school detention. Geared for youngsters ages 4–6, Tuesday's creative-dance classes develop introductory skills and encourage originality with movements that exercise imaginations. Pint-size hoofers ages 7–13 can also learn the basics of ballroom and Latin dance on Wednesday, and kids ages 7–12 can perform cha-cha, salsa, and samba steps during Latin jazz lessons on Thursday.
Queens Dance Project's team of lifelong dancers coach students through workout-oriented dance routines. During the newly unveiled pole-dancing workshops, students build muscle tone while executing spins and tricks under dimmed studio lights. Alternatively, Zumba classes keep heart rates high by pairing hip-swiveling moves with Latin beats, and tap-dancing sessions teach students how to make it rain using just their shoes. Youngsters can also build coordination and confidence at the studio, which has an age-stratified youth program to nurture kids 2 years and older with mat work and musical instruments.

The new F3 has all the makings of a class-leading supersports machine. It's much more powerful than its rivals, is lighter and has a host of electronic rider aids, from riding modes, to electronic engine braking control, variable power maps and traction control. It has a counter-rotating crankshaft, like the factory Yamaha YZR-M1 MotoGP racer, is one of the best ...
599cc, 108bhp, 160mph, Insurance group 14
Hardcore, know the score. The Yamaha YZF-R6 is a sexy uber-capable track bike that works on the road too. It caught the 600 race rep class napping and nothing came close until Suzuki launched its 2001 GSX-R600 – that's a long time to rule the 600 roost and shows just how good the original Yamaha YZF-R6 was.
749cc, 146bhp, 175mph, Insurance group 16
The 2004 and 2005 Suzuki GSX-R750s are almost perfect. The new radial brakes solved the slight stopping issues of the last incarnation, the styling's on the money and the motor and chassis are better than most of us can ever hope to fully exploit. The only fly in the 10/40W is the K5 GSX-R1000, which is so utterly brilliant there ...
599cc, 101bhp, 158mph, Insurance group 14
What a makeover! And just in time… As other sports 600s were creeping ahead, Suzuki looked as if it would be left for dead. And then they came up with this Suzuki GSX-R600. Slimmed down, firmed up and with power and torque figures to raise front wheels as well as eyebrows, the "new" Suzuki GSX-R600 was an absolute storm.
599cc, 92bhp, 150mph, Insurance group 14
A raw, involving, lunatic on wheels. The more throttle-happy you are with it, the more the Suzuki GSX-R600 will thrill. Virtually dead low down, wake it up at higher revs and you'll be clinging on for dear life. Not as finely honed as today's Suzuki GSX-R600 but, for some, that just adds to the manic appeal. Ridiculous, dangerous fun.
749cc, 85bhp, 130mph, Insurance group 12
This was Suzuki's answer to the Kawasaki Zephyr 750 and although the Suzuki GSX750 has its admirers, it never really caught on in the UK and there aren't very many about secondhand. The Suzuki GSX750 is a competent performer but the soft suspension and indifferent finish detract from an otherwise user-friendly package.
599cc, 73bhp, 135mph, Insurance group 11
Consistently slaughtered for not being the fastest / lightest / latest but the Suzuki GSX600F is a superb all-rounder. It doesn't cost the earth and is fast enough to be exciting too. As a cheap alternative to sporty 600s it sold well but when the budget 600 class came of age with bikes like the Fazer and SV650 the Suzuki ...
599cc, 110bhp, 160mph, Insurance group 15
The Triumph Daytona 600/650 is lighter, smoother, faster and infinitely prettier than the TT600. What's more, Bruce Anstey won the Junior TT on one in 2003 which goes to show what improvements Triumph made to their 600cc sports middleweight contender. The Triumph Daytona 600/650 is a beauty: an involved ride with excellent handling, amazing brakes and it's good value.

Tests have shown that nine out of 10 road testers prefer the Kawasaki ER-6 to virtually any other middleweight machine. Bandits, Fazers, Monsters, SV650s… The Kawasaki ER-6 has trounced the lot of 'em. A cunningly-disguised riot of fun, the Kawasaki ER-6 is cute, it's capable and it's competent just about anywhere.

The Suzuki GSR600 is a middleweight inline four in the same mould as Yamaha's FZ6 and Honda's Hornet 600. It's a perfectly acceptable ride, but to be honest the Suzuki GSR600 adds almost nothing to the biking world – especially when Suzuki's own Bandit 600 (and 650 version) does exactly the same job for less money than the Suzuki GSR600. ...

Senate Expected To Vote On International Oil Pipeline Today
(Washington) -- The U-S Senate is expected to vote on the proposed XL Keystone oil pipeline today. The Obama Administration, along with Senate majority leader Harry Reid, have been able to delay the vote until now. Iowa Republican Senator Chuck Grassley says he favors the construction of the oil pipeline.

The House of Representatives passed a similar measure this past Friday.
Des Moines Man Arrested Following Random Shootings
PLEASANT HILL, Iowa (AP) - Authorities say a man who drove around a Des Moines suburb and randomly opened fire is charged with attempted murder.
Pleasant Hill Public Information Officer Adam Choat says 32-year-old Pete Jason Polson faces several charges stemming from Monday morning's shootings, including two counts of attempted murder. Two men have been hospitalized.
Choat says Polson has been linked to three shootings within a 12-minute span. A third man was fired at but was not hurt. Choat says the victims appear to have been randomly targeted.
The Southeast Polk Community School District canceled classes following the shootings. Superintendent Craig Menozzi says classes likely will resume Tuesday.
Authorities say the shootings aren't related to earlier threats made on social media against a local high school.
Des Moines Schools In Lockdown
DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) - Officials in Des Moines say a high school, a middle school and an elementary school were briefly locked down because of a nearby shooting.
Des Moines Public Schools says East High School, Hiatt Middle School and Carver Community School were put on a partial lockdown Monday morning following reports of a nearby shooting. A partial lockdown means students are allowed to move around inside the schools.
Police say resource officers were dispatched to provide additional security.
The lockdown was later lifted. No suspects have been identified in the shooting, which police believe involved a dispute between several people. No injuries have been reported.
Authorities say there is no connection between the lockdown and shootings in nearby Pleasant Hill, which led to the cancellation of school for several area schools.
Iowa Public Information Board Appoints New Executive Director
DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) - The board meant to promote openness in Iowa government has named a government lawyer with experience in election and campaign law as its next executive director.
The Iowa Public Information Board said Monday that Charlie Smithson would succeed Keith Luchtel on Dec. 1.
Luchtel, an attorney, served as executive director since the board started operating last year but is stepping down. The board enforces Iowa's open meetings and records laws.
Smithson has served as legal counsel and legislative liason under Iowa Secretary of State Matt Schultz since 2012. But he's probably best known for serving as executive director of the Iowa Ethics and Campaign Disclosure Board from 1998 to 2010.
Board Chair Robert Andeweg says Smithson has great management experience and "knows his way around the Statehouse."
Mason City Man Given Two Years Probation After Stealing From Motel
MASON CITY, Iowa (AP) - A 55-year-old northern Iowa man has been given two years of probation for stealing from a hotel in Mason City where he'd been working as general manager.
On Monday morning, Robert Walker also was given a deferred judgment and 40 hours of community service. Under the deferred judgment, Walker's conviction will be expunged from his record if he successfully completes probation.
He'd pleaded guilty to felony theft after prosecutors dismissed two other charges. Prosecutors say Walker stole from the Holiday Inn Express from September to December 2013.
Judge Gregg Rosenbladt said at Walker's sentencing hearing that Walker posed no threat to the community and told him that, "You are just about squeaky clean except for this one incident."
Farmers File Lawsuits Against Syngenta
DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) - More farmers are filing lawsuits against agrochemicals giant Syngenta in a legal battle tied to the sale of a genetically modified corn seed.
Agrisure Viptera is genetically altered to kill corn-eating bugs and is approved by the United States. It was marketed to farmers in 2011.
But China, a major corn market that refuses to buy genetically modified crops it hasn't tested, had not agreed to import it. It began rejecting U.S. corn last year when Viptera was detected.
More than 50 lawsuits have been filed and hundreds more are being prepared. The lawsuits say losing China as a buyer has cost corn farmers more than $1 billion.
Syngenta says the lawsuits are without merit and upholds the right of farmers to use approved new technologies.
State Corn Harvest Nearing Completion
(Des Moines) -- The latest weekly crop report shows the state's corn harvest had slowed down due to the cold temperatures and snow. Still, Iowa farmers have been able to harvest 92 percent of the corn, which is equal to 2013, but two days ahead of the five-year average. This was the first time this season the corn harvest was ahead of normal pace. The corn harvest in south central Iowa continues to trail behind the rest of the state with only 79 percent complete. The state's soybean harvest is all but completed with 98 percent harvested.
Farm Credit Official Predicts Land Values To Still Be Strong
(Kansas City) -- While land prices in many parts of the Midwest have come down from their record highs, there are no indications they're going to collapse. Doug Stark, president and CEO of Omaha-based Farm Credit Services of America, says there's still a lot of strength under farmland overall.
Listen to
But Stark says if the profitability in farming remains low—and interest rates start to rise—it's likely to have a dampening effect on land prices going forward.
Farm Credit Services of America serves farmers in Iowa, Nebraska, South Dakota and Wyoming.

A review of the new Criterion release of Monte Hellman's "The Shooting" and "Ride in the Whirlwind."
"Norman" tells the story of a high school senior who finds too great a burden of challenges piling up all at once. His mother has died in a car crash. His father is dying of stomach cancer. This is all made known to us at the outset. The film will not be about these tragedies happening to him, but with how he deals with them. That's a worthy change from a more ordinary teen movie.
Norman (Dan Byrd) is quiet and private, with a way of hesitating before speaking as if he can barely find the will. His father, Doug (Richard Jenkins), is a doctor who understands his son's condition all too well. He also has made a decision to refuse one more round of chemotherapy and essentially supervise his own hospice care at home.
He and his son love each other, they argue only about his decision to end care, and Doug is painfully aware that he will be leaving behind an orphan. He treats Norman like an adult, inviting him to discuss with an attorney how he wants to live after his death, but Norman is unable to even listen to such questions.
Norman is smart, and therefore a loner in school. In his English class, he makes an ironic comment at a moment when no one else in the class can supply a definition of irony and is spotted for his intelligence by his English teacher (Adam Goldberg).
At tryouts for a drama club, Norman applauds an offbeat audition by Emily Parrish (Emily VanCamp), after they've earlier had an ancient classic Meet Cute (they collide in the hall, and he helps pick up her books, not awesomely original). She sweetly reveals that she likes him, and he confesses he's never been out on a date.
All of this could be in a conventional film. It is impending death that gives this one depth. In a foolish attempt to explain his behavior, he tells his best friend, James (Billy Lush), that he has cancer, and soon the whole school and especially Emily and the English teacher have the news. When Emily insists on meeting his father, that creates an obviously insoluble dilemma, not least because of the way his lie would make his father feel.
The film, directed by Jonathan Segal from an original screenplay by Talton Wingate, has the nerve to play this plot straight. The high school, in Washington state, seems relatively free of the cretins inhabiting most high school movies and avoids many opportunities for cheap laughs.
Dan Byrd, who you may have seen on the TV series "Cougar Town," is a dead ringer for Bud Cort, but sidesteps the danger of excessive cuteness. Emily VanCamp (a longtime regular on TV's "Brothers and Sisters") has a standard role, the friendly girl, but she handles it with delicacy and doesn't overplay; her performance depends above all on her ability to project empathy. When she learns Norman doesn't have cancer, that takes the need to empathize to another level, and the movie widely finds a way to communicate that without the risks of dialogue.
For me, Richard Jenkins is the heart of "Norman." How often I've admired him; even in unworthy roles, he has such strength, he never seems the need to try.
Note: "Norman" won the Silver Hugo (top prize) in the New Directors Competition at the 2010 Chicago International Film Festival.

Re: Clear scoliosis institute ny usa
I have no direct experience of the treatments the Clear Institute provides, but I have always felt uncomfortable about the way they have always seemed to focus upon the negatives of surgery rather than promoting how and why their treatment is effective. And as Becky says, Chiropractors are not MDs, however skilled they feel they are - here in the UK they would not be allowed to use the title of Dr in a medical context.
I recommend that you do a lot of research before paying out a great deal of money for something that is - I think - as yet an unproven treatment. Maybe the Clear Institute has published articles in peer reviewed medical journals (not just chiro ones) recently, I dont know.
37 years old, diagnosed with infantile idiopathic scoliosis at 6 months old with curves of 62(T) and 40(L) degrees. Casting and Milwaukee braces until surgery at 10 - ant release/pos fusion T1-T12, halo traction. Post op cast and then TLSO. Further surgery at 18 (ant release/pos fusion extended to L3 to include lumbar curve, costoplasty) and 25 (another costoplasty). Fusion extended to L4 at 33 (XLIF with 4 pedicle screws and two short rods). Pre-op curves: 76(T) and 70(L). Post-op curves: 45(T) and 35(L). Diagnosed with Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome aged 34; scoliosis almost certainly due to this rather than being idiopathic.

The sequel no one demanded! This is a three-parter, so come back Wednesday and Friday — or come back next Monday if you hated the Expelled strips, because this is, in some ways, more of that.
Bill Maher's Religulous (now out in limited release) is actually very funny for the first hour or so, until it turns its attention to Islam, where Maher loses almost all of humor and levity that was so pervasive in the first hour (even to a fault, occasionally). Then he caps it off with a heavy-handed anti-religious diatribe that feels both unnecessary and poorly fit with the rest of the movie.
The funny parts and the legitimately thought-provoking parts still make it very much worth seeing, I think, but it is disappointing that he doesn't really give religion a fair chance to refute his main point: that religion is inherently ridiculous and harmful to society. He interviews no theologians and no Biblical scholars. Perhaps the layman's religious beliefs are really more relevant than those of a scholar, but it's a perspective he doesn't even consider. It's worth noting that he did contact a few real authorities at a few churches (i.e., the Pope and the head of the Mormons), but was refused interviews with them.
Of the people in the film, only a handful — of any religion — come off as particularly sane, and even one of them (a senior Vatican priest) is a bit nutty. The all-too-brief highlight of the film, for me, was the chat with the Vatican astronomer, who comments about the (so-called) "literal" interpretations of the Old Testament and decries the fundamentalist insistence on using the Bible as a scientific text. I would be eager to see a film really examine just that point alone for two hours.
Complaints from some people that Maher and director Larry Charles (Borat) edited his interviewees come off as crazier than they really are is a cop-out, however: he doesn't really bait anybody into saying or doing anything. He asks questions, and they answer. He does make fun of more than a few of them to their face, but the words coming out of some of their mouths is impossible to explain away by baiting. (Even if he did bait them, they still said it.) The nutty religious people on-screen really do believe what they're saying, and these people really do exist. In mass numbers.

"Steeping" by Gordon McAlpin
Saturday, November 22, 2014
A short experimental film I made for schoolz. (Mostly) shot in 240 fps slow motion on an iPhone 6. Edited with Final Cut Pro. There are a few shots I'd have liked to redo if I wasn't under the gun for a deadline (and hadn't run out of tea), but… oh well.
