Welcome to your Monday -- I hope you packed for cold!
The jackets are coming back out again, and there'll be some choice words walking across the early morning parking lots to be sure this morning. There are many frost and freeze advisories out today (you can monitor the maps below for changes, but as of this posting, here's what we've got):
|NWS - Frost / Freeze Advisories
A "frost" advisory typically means that frost conditions are expectable during the advised time-frame (almost always the pre-dawn and morning hours). Temperatures here get between 38 and 32 degrees. A "freeze" warning means that temperatures are expected to dip below 32 degrees, and for a few hours in a row at that-- definitely a dangerous time for sensitive plants. You can monitor the current temperature reports below by looking at the tracking maps below. Sheltered valley locations outside the more urban areas can sometimes see 5-10 degrees colder conditions (same between ridge-top and valley floor).
Here's another interesting nugget in our trip through March-like conditions:
|NAM - Monday Afternoon
|NAM - Precip Type - Monday Afternoon
The NAM may be getting a little ambitious on this one, but in response to the deepest rotation of cold air energy through the Appalachians it wants to spit out a few showers (and yes, snowflakes too on the higher terrain). Blog-watchers from Nicholas County on up through to Canaan Valley should chime in on the comments section below if you see anything, but I surmise it will not get this crazy and most of us will instead see partly to mostly cloudy skies in the afternoon.
Now the good news...
Well, I guess one more bit of bad news... Tuesday morning will be another cold one, but the afternoon will turn our fortunes around dramatically. A couple of storm systems off to our west will channel huge amounts of warm air from the southwest and keep the pedal to the metal. Here's some high temperatures coming up, courtesy of the GFS:
|GFS - Max Temps - Tuesday
|GFS - Max Temps - Wednesday
|GFS - Max Temps - Thursday
I'm thinking we're going to go straight to "hot" on this one if those temperatures hit the upper 80s. The body has scant time to get acclimated to any part of this temperature swing.
The next opportunity for showers will come later in the week, around Thursday (see the 7-day forecast below). At this stage they look pretty pedestrian, but eventually we'll have to work more thunder into each forecast because of the increasingly warm temperatures involved.
|6-10 Day Outlook - Temperature
|6-10 Day Outlook - Precipitation
Speaking of warm temperatrues, the mid-range modeling wants to keep us in the warm, and bring on more of the wet. Considering we're still in a bit of a hole thanks to April, sounds fine with me. As long as it comes in 'garden variety' amounts.

See Derren Brown in Leeds
Date Posted: 05/03/14
Continuing his show's success in London's West End, the mystical, yet controversial illusionist Derren Brown will be bringing Infamous to Leeds.
Using the dark arts of psychology and power of the mind, Derren has been touring since 2003 and the Leeds show will be his sixth. Now working with his friend, actor and writer, his acts are performed seamlessly with Andy Nyman.
Derren Brown's tour has been seen by approximately 2 million people and this appears to be his ideal vocation. Achieving five star reviews from the Daily Telegraph, Sunday Express and the Daily Mail, this show is bound to make you gasp, jump and question your beliefs.
Appearing in a dazzling cloud of mystery on the 24th March, this spectacular show runs until the 29th March, 2014 in Leeds.
The astounding set has been designed by Simon Higlett within the Grand Theatre and Opera House Leeds.
Turn your visit to see the show into a mini break and choose to stay in one of a great range of Leeds' hotels.

The Sheboygan County Sheriff's Office says the recent thefts of more than 300 baby mink from a Wisconsin farm doesn't look like the work of animal rights activists.
Dittrich Mink Ranch in Mosel reported the mink stolen on May 13.
Sheriff's Capt. Dave Adams tells Sheboygan Press Media (http://shebpr.es/11Exn8A ) the thefts don't fit the profile of an animal rights group because the mink weren't taken all at once and no adult mink were stolen. He says activists usually release as many animals as possible and often focus on adult animals.
Sheboygan County is one of the largest mink-producing areas in the country, and farms there have been the targets of multiple raids by animal rights groups over the years.

A Message was brought from the House of Commons, by Sir
Jonathan Trelawny Knight and others; who brought up the
Bill for the Naturalization of the Countess of Lyncolne
and others, sent down from this House; in which the Commons have added a
Proviso, and desire their Lordships Concurrence thereunto.
The Proviso was read Twice in Paper, and Agreed to; and

Step right up, ladies and gentlemen, and experience the genuine, bona fide, certified humbug hullabaloo of the one and only Sleepytime Gorilla Museum. No siree, not even the legendary P.T. Barnum himself could've conceived such a clamorous concoction of sinister industrial noise, death rock, and portending lyrics offered by this quintet of avant-garde art rockers clad in the hottest in Victorian unmentionables. It's theater of the absurd straight from the sanitarium, inspired (in part) by the inane writings of one John Kane, a turn-of-the-20th-century futurist and mathematician. Folks, if your ears ail from the usual brand of musical snake oil, the pulsating prog-heavy and operatic metal generated by guitarist/front man Nils Frykdahl and bassist Dan Rathbun is guaran-damn-teed to clear out your cochlea. Rathbun also plays a series of homemade fantabulous contraptions -- like the "slide piano log" -- while percussionist Moe! Staiano clangs on found objects. Drummer Matthais Bossi and violinist Carla Kihlstedt also help create a cacophonous cipher you haven't heard since the time your grandpappy dropped the Victrola playing the Einstürzende Neubauten's latest phonograph cylinder on a pussycat in heat.

In an all-too-familiar scenario, an aspiring artist reveals a deeply personal creation to the outside world only to be met with a humiliating combo of indifference and ridicule. Such trauma has been known to send would-be artists scrambling to find a more hospitable vocation. Only the most committed and/or delusional survive such rejection. Yet some thrive on the scorn, anticipating the day when misguided early works will achieve a value as ironic entertainment. So it is that the leaders of Comedy Suitcase, humorists Joshua Scrimshaw and Levi Weinhagen, present Amateur Hour. Billed as an "intimate evening of unintentional comedy," the show dregs up (justifiably buried) early artistic efforts from a time when ambitions were only tenuously related to talent or craft. Always willing to share the embarrassment, Scrimshaw and Weinhagen have dared accomplished artists from a range of disciplines (including Sulia Altenberg, Leslie Ball, Nancy Donoval, David Mann, Pablo, Amy Sackett, and Tim Uren) to revel in their greatest flops. Live critiques from a panel of kids and amateur artists will either ease the pain of rejection or repeat the nightmarish ordeal. Either way, audiences are in for an irreverent reminder that no great art was ever achieved without a generous share of mockery.
Fridays, Saturdays, 7 p.m. Starts: Feb. 11. Continues through Feb. 12, 2011

Business Dinner Downtown?
- r
- Robert Peyton Feb 25, 2007 03:21 PM
I'm coming to Chicago from New Orleans on business this week, and I'm staying at a Marriot at 165 East Ontario street downtown. I've got to make reservations for dinner Thursday night for four, and hopefully near the hotel.
My past experiences in Chicago include Alinea, which was spectacular, but definitely not what I'm looking for on this occasion. I'd like to eat well, but in a place we can actually talk work.
I'd really appreciate some suggestions. Price is not all that much of an object, as I suppose I'll be reimbursed, but ideally around $125 or less per person for food would be great. I know it's a little late to make reservations for Thursday night, but we can dine early; very early.
Thanks in advance. I freaking love Chicago, and I wish I had more time to spend on this trip. I'm staying over Friday night to have dinner with some friends, and flying out on Saturday afternoon.
This, of course, assumes that the weather allows me to travel in the first place.
Shaw's crab house is just out the back door of the Marriott, superb seafood. a chain, but always reliable, Houstons is also less than one block. A short cab ride for a truly fine meal is to the Erie Street cafe. Mostly local business diners. Very, very good steaks and seafood. Also a short ride and always good, Eli's Steak House.
re: stumpworks73
Eli's The Place For Steak is not "always good" - at least, not since 2005, the year they closed their doors. ;)
Thanks folks, I'll be checking back over the next couple of days.
I really appreciate the help. I hope anyone coming to New Orleans checks the board there, and please also feel free to email me or check out my website: http://www.appetites.us
According to Metomix, the Houston is closed. Close to your hotel are the following which have gotten good reviews on this site and others.
Bandera Restaurant - 535 N. Michigan Ave
Coco Pazzao - 636 N. St Clair St
Les Nomades 222 E. Ontario
Joe's Stone Crab, although technically a "chain" (and owned by Lettuce Entertain You) is really, really good. It also is right out the back door of the Marriott.
Houstons and Eli's indeed are both closed.
Thanks again. I've got some good leads now. From their websites, either Coco Pazzo or Les Nomades would work very well, I think.
First, a comment: you are staying in the hotel called the Courtyard Chicago. Those posting above noting restaurants "right out the back door" appear to be referring to the Marriott hotel at 520 N Michigan, which is around a block and a half away.
I have some recommendations VERY close to your hotel, but first, I have a question: What, exactly, are you looking for in a place for a business dinner?
To elaborate on the question: I know that I've had different needs for different business dinners. Sometimes I need to discuss business, in which case I want a place that is relatively quiet and comfortable, and where the staff are experienced enough to recognize when to approach the table and when to leave us alone. Sometimes I'm looking for a place for more of a "fun" business dinner, where we're just looking for a good time, but I also want impressively good food. And sometimes I'm looking for a "splurge" restaurant (such as to celebrate an accomplishment) which will knock everyone's socks off.
Depending on what you're looking for, I'm sure you can find a suitable place within a block or so of the Courtyard. Here are places that are VERY close:
1. Viand is right inside your hotel. I haven't been there, but the menu on their website sounds like it might be very suitable, and the convenience is obvious (especially in bad weather). www.viandchicago.com
Just a few steps away, you have:
2. Bice, for Italian food - www.bicechicago.com
3. The Capital Grille, a top steakhouse - www.thecapitalgrille.com/Locations/Ch...
4. Coco Pazzo Cafe - This is a second location of the Italian restaurant (the original is located further west) - www.cocopazzocafe.com
5. Les Nomades - As previously mentioned, this is a fine dining destination - www.lesnomades.com
6. David Burke's Primehouse - Another excellent steakhouse - www.davidburke.com/primehouse.html
Tru is also very close and excellent but it won't meet your stated budget.
All of these are within a block of the Courtyard Chicago.
Bice, Coco Pazzo Cafe, The Capital Grille, and Les Nomades all accept reservations on opentable.com
Your hotel has a concierge desk and they may be able to assist, not only with advice for your specific needs, but also with obtaining reservations if you encounter any difficulty doing so yourself.
Just a note on the above: some excellent suggestions and the steakhouses (DB's and Capital are particularly good for business talk). You should be aware, tho, that Les Nomades is a high-end French restaurant, one that I think of as a "special occasion" venue (we went there on our anniversary a couple of years back, as a matter-of-fact, and were very pleased with the food and the atmosphere (staid, comfy, romantic)), and if you're not careful with the wine you could exceed your $125/per.
re: Francophile
Cafe Spiaggia is a long walk or a short cab ride away. It's not a bad place, but with two excellent Italian options on the same block as the Courtyard Chicago, it's not worth the extra distance.
re: Francophile
Les Nomades isn't a great business venue, IMO... the tables are cramped, you have to sit face to face with one party facing a wall... much more a "haute foodie" or romantic destination than for business... especially if you have any paperwork to look over, forget it... just my opinion.
This is superb, thanks.
I am going to need to discuss business during the dinner, so atmosphere is an issue, but we won't be throwing documents around or dragging out laptops. I'm really just not sure how adventurous at least one of my guests is going to be, which is my only hesitation where Les Nomades is concerned; the $125 was really intended just for the food.
David Burke's Primehouse looks really interesting, as does Cafe Spiaggia. When my wife was in town a couple of years ago, she ate at Spiaggia and brought me home a menu. Might be interesting to check out S's little brother?
I'm really leaning towards Tru though. I know what I said about the cost, but, well... I figure the odds I can get a table for 4 on Thursday night are pretty slim anyway, so if I can, I might as well go for it.
Thanks again for all the information and thoughts.
re: Robert Peyton
I think Tru would be a big mistake - at that price point I'd go to Everest (a taxi ride) or, as mentioned, Les Nomades.
re: Francophile
I like Everest a lot; in fact, when I started thinking about this topic, I was going to mention it. It's actually somewhat lower in price than Tru, the food and service are both outstanding, the atmosphere is perfect for a business dinner, particularly with the wonderful view from the top of the Chicago Stock Exchange building. However, if most of the four people attending the business dinner are staying at the Courtyard Chicago, the proximity of Tru (or Les Nomades) is a HUGE convenience factor, and that's why I decided not to mention Everest.
This is the same reason I did not mention Avenues, another spectacular Chicago restaurant about four blocks from the hotel.
Both Everest and Avenues are as spectacular as Tru. And all of them take reservations on opentable.com
>> I'm really leaning towards Tru though. I know what I said about the cost, but, well... I figure the odds I can get a table for 4 on Thursday night are pretty slim anyway, so if I can, I might as well go for it. <<
As of right now, you shouldn't have any problem making a reservation for this Thursday night at Tru. I just checked on opentable.com and they're wide open, even for the treasured 7:30 pm slot.
Thanks again for the recommendations. I ended up choosing Les Nomades. The only downside to which is that I did not inform the other members of my party that a jacket is required. It just didn't occur to me, since I'd wear a jacket to dinner out of habit. They do have jackets to loan, so it's not a deal-breaker.
I had lunch today at Bice, and it was very good. Octopus carpaccio with avocado, hearts of palm and arugula salad, and the orreciette with sausage and broccoli raab. Very nice, though now I need a nap before my 3:00 meeting.
I hope if any of you get to New Orleans that you find the local chowhound board as helpful as I've found yours.
Thanks again.

Where to find fabulous Mexican Food
I live in BC and our Mexican Food restaurants just don't cut it up here. We often drive to Seattle for the day for Mexican Food - can you point us in the direction of a great restaurant.
I'll be the one to tell to search past threads, esp. this one, which started a while back but has been updated recently. http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/15706
Looking through, to my knowledge the only very recent sit-down opening of note is El Mestizo on 12th in Capitol Hill, which I enjoy for the cochinita pibil and chiles en nogada. I recently tried El Camion, a taco truck on a higher plane than all others in SEA (several salsas, higher quality meats), but I still enjoy El Asadero #2 on a weekly basis. I always promote the locally unique D.F. fare at El Quetzal, esp. the pambazos, monster tortas, and huaraches.
El Mestizo
526 Broadway, Seattle, WA 98122
re: equinoise
Sorry to be picky -- Mestizo is actually on Broadway, not 12th, and in the First Hill neighborhood. But I agree it's pretty good.
I'm generally not too high on local Mexican food, but in addition to Mestizo, you can get decent restaurant-style at Carta de Oaxaca (Ballard Ave, Ballard), or for taqueria-style I like Asadero (on Rainier in Rainier Valley) or El Camion (on 1st Ave S in SoDo) for trucks, Barriga Llena for tortas (it's on Aurora in Greenlake), and Taqueria Tequila for Mexican breakfast (85th near Greenwood).
Barriga Llena
, Seattle, WA 98101
re: pusherman
I was wrong on both counts, thank you for the correction. If you want to get really picky, I think the neighborhood is Yesler Terrace and not First Hill since it's just south of James.
For high-quality, interesting, fairly authentic sit-down Mexican food, I like El Mestizo http://www.elmestizorestaurant.com/ on Capitol Hill, and Señor Moose http://senormoose.com/ in Ballard. For cheaper and faster options, I love Taqueria La Estacion in Burien (real Mexican in an old Taco Bell building--love the irony of that), and any number of taco trucks around town--Rancho Bravo in Wallingford and Taqueria la Fondita #2 in Whte Center are a couple of my favorites. For a really good, cozy, neighborhood-y kind of place, with a menu that's a nice balance between truly authentic and totally gringo-ified, I love La Costa http://www.lacostaburien.com/ in Burien. Bonus at La Costa on most Friday nights: a kick-ass mariachi band.
La Costa Mexican Restaurant
206 SW 152nd St, Burien, WA 98166
Taqueria La Estacion
14820 Ambaum Blvd SW, Burien, WA 98166
El Mestizo
526 Broadway, Seattle, WA 98122
re: MsMaryMc
Thanks all so much - I will print this all out and keep it in the car - so when we make the journey it is with us. Yum - I feel a mexican fix coming on!!
re: MsMaryMc
I heart La Costa! The food is pretty typical american mexican (though the skirt steak and grilled meats are often exceptional) but the margaritas are INSANE. Don't mess around, go for the Costa Rita. The people are also the best. Eating there is like eating with family :)
La Costa Mexican Restaurant
206 SW 152nd St, Burien, WA 98166
re: Ambria
Just got home from there! A Costa Rita Gigante + my annual birthday shot (complete with silly sombrero and "¡Feliz Cumpleaños!" sung by the entire waitstaff) has me weaving, but I feel great. Just like eating with family, definitely!
I spent a lot of time exploring Mexican restaurants in the area last year. Now I mostly feel like sticking to:
El Camion on Aurora for delicious meats and truckside dining. The Ballard location isn't as good.
Barriga Llena on Aurora or in Federal Way for tortas (Aca las Tortas is a decent alternative if you're stuck up north)
Senor Moose in Ballard for breakfast or dinner. Consider doing the former on a weekday.
Taqueria Muy Macho in South Park, mostly for the Oaxacan dishes
Taqueria la Estacion in Burien for top-notch taqueria fare. They also have a location in Des Moines that I've not visited.
On the Eastside, consider skipping Mexico altogether and instead visiting El Comal near Crossroads (the posole at Taqueria El Rinconsito tasty, though).
Do not trust anyone who tells you to go to Agua Verde or Mama's.
re: lavaca
At least Agua Verde has a nice deck with a pretty view of the Ship Canal. It's lovely on a warm day (even though you'll have a long wait for a table there)--and the food isn't *that* bad.
There is no reason whatsoever to go to Mama's. There is no reason whatsoever for Mama's to continue to exist--why and how it does has been a mystery to me since I moved to Seattle 18 years ago.
re: MsMaryMc
I tried Mamma's once and the thing that puzzled me most was how they got the picadillo to taste lik Mary Kitchen Corned Beef Hash. Well, not exactly like it but so close.
re: knowspicker
Why Mama's exists and has for so long: Mama's is for 20-somethings who want to fill up cheaply before going to clubs. I can't tell you how many times I went there before going to shows at the Croc in the 90s. You could go in ripped jeans and flannel shirts. I haven't been in years but wonder if business has suffered now that Belltown isn't so dive-y, and doesn't attract the same kind of young people it used to. Then again, if there's a market for Azteca et al, it shouldn't be surprising that Mama's might still do okay.
1321 SE Everett Mall Way Ste B, Everett, WA 98208
re: MsMaryMc
Agua Verde isn't THAT bad, you're right, but I would not recommend going out of the way for it, nor would I trust the recommendations of anyone claiming that Agua Verde is one of the best/better Mexican restaurants in Seattle. The continuing popularity probably has a lot to do with the fact that the restaurant is laid out in such a way to encourage a line out the door no matter how busy it is inside ("if everybody's waiting, it must be good!").
Definitely check out La Cocina del Puerco in Bellevue. Small place, small menu, small old Mexican woman behind the counter making the food. It's outstanding.
re: savvy savorer
looks like it is going to take more than one weekend in Seattle to check all these out.
thanks so much everyone!!
There's a great little place on hwy 99 in lynnwood - Taqueria la Fondita. It's an old converted Taco Bell. The tacos el carbon are great and on weekends they have breakfast from 8-12, chilequilles are awesome. Mostly Mexican clientele, with more than a few very appreciative, and always welcome gringos like us
re: anigmag
on a related side question to this thread, who has the best al pastor? I cant find any that is good as I've had in LA. (I've seen a lot of adobada but i dont feel its quite the same)
re: shaolinLFE
do you want it freshly cut off the spit with pineapple on top?
Some carnicerias sell 'al pastor' but it is small pieces of pork mixed with spices (like adobada), onions (and pineapple), that you stirfry at home.
re: shaolinLFE
Laredos and Los Agaves cook the meat on a vertical rotisserie, but I found both to be underwhelming. The meat was really dry at Laredos, and the tacos at Los Agaves were underseasoned (also, they appeared to use canned pineapple).
If you want to give either a try, I'd recommend Laredos when they are busy (i.e. you're not the only one there ordering tacos al pastor) and Los Agaves somewhere other than the Queen Anne Farmers Market.
re: lavaca
I have heard the new taqueria on Broadway does al pastor on the spit -- I can't remember the name, but it just opened, and is in the same building as Kimchee Bistro and Guanaco's, roughly Broadway and Thomas on CapHill. Id love to see a review if anyone's been.
Supposedly there was a guy at the Ballard weekend farmer's market w/al pastor, but I was never able to find him.
re: pusherman
Ate at Tacos Chukis, the new taqueria above Hana Sushi on Broadway. They are barely open but so far so good.
Currently only serving pork adobada and beef asada, as fillings for the tacos, mullitas, and tortas. Thought the adobada was very tasty, and the beef had a nice char to it. I'll go back in a few weeks when they have gotten on their feet a bit.
Hana Sushi
10114 Main St, Bothell, WA 98011
el puerco lloron off western on the pike street hillclimb by pike place market. it's the most delicious, most authentic mexican restaurant i've been to in seattle.

Pictures of Kim Kardashian and Kris Humphries Engaged in Monaco
Kim Kardashian Wears White to Show Off Her Huge Ring!
Kim Kardashian posed with her fiancé, Kris Humphries, at a Matthew Williamson fashion show in Monaco this past weekend. She looked gorgeous in a white dress for the occasion, but it was her huge diamond ring that was the centre of attention. Kim's been flaunting her new 20.5-carat accessory since announcing her engagement to Kris with a People cover last week. She flashed the sparkler at the airport on her way overseas, and it looks like she's already starting to plan her nuptials. Kim tweeted a picture of her two youngest sisters, Kylie and Kendall, and asked, "how adorable are my bridesmaids?" The newly engaged couple haven't shared any other details about their wedding, but Kim's mum, Kris Jenner, did request that they give her a little more time to plan than the nine days that she had to pull Khloe's event off.

What's on the show floor and what's new in the world of open source.
After the tutorial sessions that ran through Monday and Tuesday and the Ignite talks and O'Reilly awards kicked things off last night, we've settled in nicely to our booth on the show floor and have been making the rounds, enjoying the talks and meeting the other expo attendees. And while the day's not half-over quite yet, here's what we have so far in convenient bullet form.
On the mobile front:
- Symbian will continue to develop its open architecture, despite the recent news that Nokia would be dropping the OS from future smartphones in favor of MeeGo. The Foundation has enlisted the help of Nitobi and its PhoneGap software to develop smartphone applications.
- MeeGo discussed its AppUp store, a cloud-based app store that is currently in beta. The store will feature apps for the various deployments of MeeGo, including mobile phone, tablet, and hinted at future iterations of the OS running on televisions and mediaphones.
As for keynotes:
- Tim O'Reilly started off hailing the open source community for its collaboration and its uncanny ability to solve problems through involving and engaging members from every corner of the earth and every place on the spectrum.
- Jennifer Pahlka gave an impassioned call to arms for Code for America, asking that developers lend their time and skills to help bridge the rapidly growing technology gap that is overtaking municipal jobs.
- Dirk Hohndel gave a breakdown of MeeGo and its role in upstream development.
- Stormy Peters from GNOME asked the question "Is Your Data Free" and then quickly likened data ownership and autonomy to picking up dog poop. That was one of the more impressive linkages of the conference so far.
- Bryan Sivak, from the government of the District of Columbia, gave a candid talk about open source and its role in government. At one point, Sivak made the statement that organizations and open source vendors needed to get real on pricing and that maintenance and support were major factors in determining how much an open source solution would cost.
- Marten Mickos, CEO of Eucalyptus Systems, discussed the cloud and making it open, free, and profitable. Mickos's solution: Give it to people who have plenty of time and not much money, sell it to people with lots of money and no time.
And that's it for now. We're still roaming the show floor and you can expect video and transcribed interviews to come. Follow us at linux_pro on twitter and check back here for updates.

Nyack News
RELEASE: HBO Documentary Features Nyack Alumnus Sean Pica
Contacts: HBO New York: Lana Iny or Jessica Driscoll (212)512-1462 or 1322
HBO Los Angeles: Nancy Lesser (310)382-3274
Hudson Link Executive Director: Sean Pica (914)941-0794
Nyack College: email@example.com or (845)675-4430
Sean Pica, 2001 Nyack College Alumnus
In March 31 HBO Documentary, "The University of Sing Sing"
NYACK, NY--Transformation from the inside out is the result of a college education provided to prison inmates enrolled in degree programs provided by institutions who partner with Hudson Link for Higher Education, a non-profit organization based in Ossining, NY and founded in 1998. In 2001, Hudson Link and Nyack College held their first commencement ceremony at Sing Sing Correctional Facility.
"The University of Sing Sing," follows students pursuing a college degree through the Hudson Link program at Sing Sing. The riveting documentary premieres Monday, March 31, (9:45-10:30 p.m. ET/PT), exclusively on HBO. Other upcoming airings are April 2 (12:15 p.m., 4:00 a.m.), April 5 (3:00 p.m.), April 8 (4:30 p.m.), April 13 (9:30 a.m.), and April 18 (11:15 a.m.).
Today some 334 incarcerated men and women in New York State facilities are enrolled in degree programs, funded by private donations, that offer the same curriculum offered to residential college students at five Hudson Link partners—Nyack College (now at Fishkill Correctional Facility), Mercy College (at Sing Sing Correctional Facility), Siena College (at Greene Correctional Facility), SUNY Sullivan Community College (at Sullivan Correctional Facility), and Vassar College (at Taconic Correctional Facility). More than 300 college degrees have been conferred since 2001.
Hudson Link Executive Director, Sean Pica, in the 2001 Nyack College graduating class at Sing Sing, now spearheads the program, and appears in "The University of Sing Sing," which chronicles the personal transformation that occurs when inmates encounter redemption and a reason to hope. The inmates featured in the film have taken full advantage of the opportunity for self-improvement. One who recalls his early days in prison as being "in an ocean of despair" now says "Hudson Link revived me and gave me a second chance at life."
The remarkable outcome of this prison education initiative is that Hudson Link has a less than 2% recidivism rate among released graduates; New York State's is 40%. Drawing the attention of a broad spectrum of supporters, including social activists, the business community, and film and television celebrities, the Hudson Link program is thriving. Supporters include actor Ice-T (Law and Order:SVU), business icon Warren Buffet, and social activist Harry Belafonte.
Pica, who was incarcerated when he was just a teenager, calls the program essential for successful re-entry into society after prison. In the film, he asks, "Do you want them the same way they went in, or worse? Or do you want them changed and thinking about what they've done, and educated and looking to make a difference in their lives?"
In a powerful display of critical thinking and research skills that equip the inmates for educational pursuits, a student debate was held at Sing Sing Correctional Facility in fall 2012 with mixed teams of students from Nyack College, Mercy College, and inmates enrolled in the organizational management degree program.
"The University of Sing Sing" was directed by Tim Skousen; produced by Robert Fernandez and Tim Skousen; executive produced by Dan Levinson; co-produced by Karol Zeno; edited by Geof Bartz, Mitch Gerbus and Tim Skousen; director of photography, Ed Stephenson. For HBO: supervising producer, Jacqueline Glover; executive producer, Sheila Nevins.
Nyack College was founded in 1882 by Dr. Albert Benjamin Simpson and currently serves 3,100 students in its undergraduate and graduate degree programs. In addition to its residential campus in Nyack, NY and a commuter campus in historic Battery Park, an extension site is located in San Juan, Puerto Rico. Nyack is accredited by the Middle States Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools and is chartered by the Board of Regents of the University of the State of New York.

- Chefs too noisy!!!Nurse1975Dined on 11/22/2014I had a wonderful server who was working her bottom off trying to make my experience also wonderful. But there were 3 issues trying ruin my night . First there was a very noising wedding going on in the ballroom above the dining room. Second, the chefs seemed to be having a bad night - there were yelling, and dropping dishes - it seemed to be a problem to first get french fries for the table next to me which the comped to the table when they finally got them, then for me to get creme brûlée. I could hear everything that they were talking about and I really did not need to. I did not like my meal, but that is not their fault - bad choice. The Creme Brûlée had a very think sugar topping and very little soft pudding like underneath. I had the same problem in this restaurant - I could not get a single glass of Riesling. They said that would be resolved next week.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great Spa RestaurantJohnDined on 11/16/2014Always good and reliable with excellent food and exceptional service - always a good choice when staying at Bedford Springs Resort & Spa.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Fine Dining meets ApproachableOpenTable Diner Since 2010Dined on 11/9/2014This was fine dining without the snobbery. As a foodie, I loved getting glimpses into the kitchen. The food was top notch and they were very accommodating of special requests. The waitress KNEW the dishes--not just memorizing what the chef said. Food was piping hot, beautifully presented without being pretentious. Service was prompt without feeling rushed.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 11/8/2014Great food and a nice but crowded atmosphere. We enjoyed the breakfast buffet the bestSpecial Features:
- Great food and servicebadgerDined on 10/26/2014Had a wonderful romantic dinner with my wife for our anniversary in the Crystal Room. We did the tasting menu. The portions were perfect and the taste of the food was outstanding. Our wait staff was wonderful as well. Our waitress was in training and she did wonderful also her trainer was great. Very friendly and spot on on the refills. Overall my wife and me were very impressed.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Crystal RoomOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 10/19/2014We had a late seating (7:45) on a Sunday night. There was a wedding upstairs so the noise level was high. Main course came by 9:15. The chef sent out a complementary sorbet dish and the waitress was kind enough to explain the reason for the delay. We appreciated that very much. Very good food and the service was top notch.Special Features:
- ExcellentSpa2Dined on 10/19/2014Everything was perfect. Great service. Beautiful setting. Amazing foodSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 10/18/2014Restaurant was very noisy. Service was slow at best. Wait staff took 20 minutes to come and take our order. Came back about every 15 minutes to complain how slow the kitchen was running. Food was quite good but service and noise level made the dining experience much less than anticipated and hoped for. I would not go back to the restaurant. Much better options 2 miles away in the community.
- Phenomenal!!!girlsgetawayDined on 9/27/2014We were there to celebrate a bride to be. We had a table for 10, and were set up in the back dining area, very private and pretty. Our server was phenomenal! The food was delicious.We will definitely be back!!!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Crystal helps a Memorial groupOpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 9/12/2014Crystal room went out of their way to accommodate a group of 9 friends who had come to celebrate a classmate's life. Our friend, Bedford area resident Jim MacRae and his wife had enjoyed fine dining at Bedford Springs Spa in the past. It was an excellent place for our group to remember his good life. Crystal Room provided us with a good small group room for us. Service and food were excellent, as we expected based on their experience. One of the participants was Jim's widow, who was very pleased.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Another amazing dinner!waytoowarmVIPDined on 9/12/2014We had another amazing dinner at the Crystal Dining Room. My husband and I spend special occasions at Bedford Springs and are never disappointed by the food! Chef Josh Wertz is wonderful and has a great team! So creative and delicious!Special Features:
- Pretty room, okay foodmischiefmanager17Dined on 9/10/2014We had dinner in the Crystal Room during our visit to the Omni Bedford Springs. The food didn't quite measure up to the room, which is very pretty. We were unable to order an appetizer, because we don't eat pork or shellfish and all of the choices were one or the other. Our first courses were enjoyable, with the gazpacho especially good. My trout was nicely cooked, but the potato cake was pretty bland. My husband enjoyed his chicken, but the meat itself didn't have a lot of flavor. (We're used to kosher chicken, which is very flavorful.) Dessert was a real disappointment. We couldn't find anything that tempted us. I hope the panna cotta fad ends soon; I'm not a fan. Service was excellent.Special Features:
- Lovely dining experienceLK2014Dined on 9/7/2014The food and service were wonderful. Lovely restaurant at a gem of a Pennsylvania resort. Can't wait to return.Special Features:
- The weak linkDiningwithdavidVIPDined on 8/25/2014Bedford Springs Resort is awesome but dinner in the Crystal Room is not worthy. No one on staff could recommend wines and service was very slow. The floor supervisor did agree to deduct cost of appetizers but the waitress presented a bill with appetizers included. Food quality was OK.Special Features:
- Outstanding food but......BobbyDined on 8/20/2014I've been to the Crystal Dining Room many years ago and as before, the food and service were outstanding. I really would expect nothing less from Bedford Springs, as they try very hard to put on a top-level experience. My only complaint, when you're a guest of the resort, it would be nice if your already high dollar stay would get you a bit of break from full price on meals and drinks.Special Features:
- Great hotel restaurantFansofFabioDined on 8/12/2014We stayed at the Omni Bedford Springs and very much enjoyed our dinner at the Crystal Room. We shared an appetizer and a wonderful salad, and also shared the duck and chicken dishes. All the dishes were well prepared and delicious. The service was first rate. We told our waitress that we were sharing all the dishes and the kitchen did the splitting for us without any loss in the presentation. Well done. The wine list was reasonable and we selected an excellent California Shiraz. All in all, a very good experience.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2012VIPDined on 8/11/2014We stayed at the resort The food was delicious The service was very good The room was very pretty A formal atmosphere with a california style kitchen We wish there was an outdoor sitting area or atleast a view of the groundsSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- CelebrationPattiCDined on 8/8/2014We went to the Crystal Room to celebrate our son and daughter-in-law's 1st anniversary. It was delightful to say the least. The food was very good and the atmosphere charming. We ordered the cheese platter for two as an appetizer and easily fed our family of 6 - which is unheard of at such a posh restaurant. The only negative was the cost, but we knew that going in.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- ElegantRichardVIPDined on 8/4/2014The filet and scallops are fabulous. The service is fabulous. The Crystal Room is gorgeous. Dinner there transports you to a more elegant place and time.Special Features:
- The following 373 reviews are from the Crystal Dining Room at Bedford Springs reviews archive.
- Consistently Solid PerformanceJohnDined on 7/23/2014We have eaten here several times over the last few years and The Crystal Dining Room stays consistently very good. The food is well prepared with nice presentation and excellent flavors. The staff continues to excel and service from all the staff is superb and extremely attentive. For hotel guests, the staff get to know you quickly and take very good care of you. Overall, a very good choice.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Delicious food worth the priceChicagoOpenTableDiner2010VIPDined on 7/15/2014Went here for my mom's birthday dinner. I had the 8 oz. filet with mushrooms, white asparagus, potatoes, and scallops. The steak was cooked well and very tender, and there were so many accompaniments that made the steak even more delicious. It was definitely worth the price I paid. Would go back and also highly recommend. I wish I remembered our server's name. She was awesome...highly attentive and delightful.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Decent food in nice settingOpenTable Diner Since 2006Dined on 7/12/2014The Omni Bedford Springs Resort is a beautiful, historic venue. The Crystal Dining Room in the Resort offers decent, though not exceptional, food at prices in line with what you would expect from a 4-star resort in a secluded setting. My wife and I dined here recently and really liked the overall resort setting. The food, however, does not merit NYC prices and the dining room itself is nice, but not exceptional from an aesthetic perspective. If you are already staying at the resort, check it out by all means. But, I wouldn't go out of your way just to go to the restaurant.Special Features:
- OpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 7/6/2014Outstanding service, very professional. My daughter just started to eat seafood at the age of 20 and had salmon for dinner. She rarely finishes her food and needless to say her plate was licked clean(lol) The next day she was craving your prepared salmon. I was impressed with the cleanliness, prompt service, and great food. Thank you for such a great experience. Loved the lighting, very soft but bright enough so that I could see my food.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Nice Anniversary DinnerSailorBobDined on 7/6/2014This was a getaway weekend at the Bedford Springs Resort, so we went with their top dining room and had an excellent dinner with fine service. Good table spacing and staggering of tables made for a nicely quiet and enjoyable experience. We will definitely be back.Special Features:
- Mixed reviewweknowfoodDined on 7/5/2014Dinner of 8. 6 of us loved our dinner - 5 filets and 1 ravioli dinner. 2 were not so good. Chicken had "bread pudding" which was actually stuffing served with it. The stuffing was ice-cold - seemed to be served straight from the refrigerator. This is not what I would expect when paying $40 for the chicken dinner. Sage polenta dinner was not good - prepared poorly. It was served dark brown, so way overcooked, and like mush inside. Not edible.Special Features:
- Great PlaceOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 7/4/2014I wanted to say the food at the Crystal Dinning room was wonderful. I would recommendSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Ordinary foodSpnzDined on 7/3/2014Green onion soup was mostly heavy cream, very little flavor; tomato salad was very good; bison was bland and yams were overlooked; sea bass was good

- OpenTable Diner Since 2012VIPDined on 6/20/2014The dining room is very elegant and very efficient, we enjoyed every moment of our food and service. A lovely evening with friends.Special Features:
- Great experiencePTdinerDined on 6/14/2014My wife and I had an excellent dinner with the duck which was expertly prepared. We also enjoyed 2 outstanding breakfast buffets. All of the food is tremendous. Our compliments to the excellent chefs. We really had an outstanding waitress (Tracie) and the entire staff made us feel very welcome. The excellent food, combined with the outstanding service and the beautiful room itself makes for a most pleasurable dining experience. You really have a top notch dining experience. Many thanks to all and we plan on seeing you all again the next time we are at the resort.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- AltoonaDocDined on 6/14/2014Excellent experience! From the location and the scenic view sitting on the front porch in rocking chairs, to the more than friendly and courteous staff and fine food, we had a wonderful time and look forward to doing it again.Special Features:
- Delicious food!rosechica26Dined on 6/12/2014My husband and I ate breakfast and dinner at the Crystal Room during our recent stay at Bedford Inn Resort. Breakfast was a little pricey for an omelet, hashbrowns, toast, and coffee, but it ended up being one of the best breakfasts I have ever had. The food at dinner was also fantastic (I had the sea bass and blood orange creme brulee which exceeded my expectations!). Our server was training another server and my only complaint is that they interrupted our meal a LOT to ask questions, refill drinks, etc. Very expensive restaurant but the food was really delicious!Special Features:
- Amazing foodJeffdouaiherDined on 6/7/2014The food was truly amazing, worth the visit. Whether appetizers or entrees; the scallops that come with the filet mignon were ridiculously amazing, one of the best I've had The cocktails were a bit too sweet but good.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Decent all aroundForb14Dined on 6/7/2014Could not get into 1796 so a group of us decided to try Crystal Room. I had the Duck which was very good and others had the Veal and Filet which were good but nothing to brag about. A better bet would be to go off site to 10/09Special Features:

- Very ElegantAngelDined on 6/4/2014This restaurant was gorgeous. The food was good, service excellent. The ambiance comes with a large price tag though. 3 of us ate for $160.00. We had salmon, lamb and the ravioli dinners. All were good. Only one of us had a glass of wine, the rest of us just water.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
