The bull shark (Carcharhinus leucas), also known as the Zambezi shark or, unofficially, as Zambi in Africa and Nicaragua shark in Nicaragua, is a shark commonly found worldwide in warm, shallow waters along coasts and in rivers. The bull shark is known for its aggressive nature, predilection for warm shallow water, and presence in brackish and freshwater systems including estuaries and rivers.
Bull sharks can thrive in both saltwater and freshwater and can travel far up rivers. They have even been known to travel as far up the Mississippi River as Illinois,[2] although there have been few recorded freshwater attacks. They are probably responsible for the majority of near-shore shark attacks, including many attacks attributed to other species.[3]
Unlike the river sharks of the genus Glyphis, bull sharks are not true freshwater sharks, despite their ability to survive in freshwater habitats.
The name "bull shark" comes from the shark's stocky shape, broad, flat snout, and aggressive, unpredictable behavior.[4] In India, the bull shark may be confused with the Sundarbans or Ganges shark. In Africa, it is also commonly called the Zambezi River shark or just Zambi. Its wide range and diverse habitats result in many other local names, including Ganges River shark, Fitzroy Creek whaler, van Rooyen's shark, Lake Nicaragua shark,[5] river shark, freshwater whaler, estuary whaler, Swan River whaler,[6] cub shark, and shovelnose shark.[7]
Bull sharks are large and stout, with females being larger than males. The bull shark can be up to 81 cm (2.66 ft) in length at birth.[8] Adult female bull sharks average 2.4 m (7.9 ft) long and typically weigh 130 kg (290 lb), whereas the slightly smaller adult male averages 2.25 m (7.4 ft) and 95 kg (209 lb). While a maximum size of 3.5 m (11 ft) is commonly reported, there is a questionable record of a female specimen of exactly 4 m (13 ft). The maximum recorded weight of a bull shark was 315 kg (694 lb) but may be larger.[3][9][10] Bull sharks are wider and heavier than other requiem sharks of comparable length, and are grey on top and white below. The second dorsal fin is smaller than the first. The bull shark's caudal fin is longer and lower than that of the larger sharks, and it has a small snout, and lacks an interdorsal ridge.[8]
Bull sharks have a bite force of up to 600 kilograms (1,300 lb), pound for pound the highest among all investigated cartilaginous fishes.[11]
The bull shark is commonly found worldwide in coastal areas of warm oceans, in rivers and lakes, and occasionally salt and freshwater streams if they are deep enough. It is found to a depth of 150 metres (490 ft), but does not usually swim deeper than 30 metres (98 ft).[12] In the Atlantic, it is found from Massachusetts to southern Brazil, and from Morocco to Angola. In the Indian Ocean, it is found from South Africa to Kenya, India, and Vietnam to Australia.
Populations of bull sharks are also found in several major rivers, with more than 500 bull sharks thought to be living in the Brisbane River. One was reportedly seen swimming the flooded streets of Brisbane, Queensland, Australia, during the Queensland floods of late 2010/early 2011.[13] Several were sighted in one of the main streets of Goodna, Queensland, shortly after the peak of the January 2011, floods.[14] There are greater numbers still in the canals of the Gold Coast, also in Queensland. A large bull shark was caught in the canals of Scarborough, two hours north of the Gold Coast.[15] In the Pacific Ocean, it can be found from Baja California to Ecuador. The shark has traveled 4,000 kilometres (2,500 mi) up the Amazon River to Iquitos in Peru.[16] It also lives in fresh water Lake Nicaragua, in the Ganges and Brahmaputra rivers of West Bengal and Assam in eastern India and adjoining Bangladesh. It can live in water with a high salt content as in St. Lucia Estuary in South Africa. The bull shark is generally prolific in the warm coastal waters and estuarine systems of the Mozambique Channel and southward, including Kwa-Zulu Natal and Mozambique. The species has a distinct preference for warm currents.
After Hurricane Katrina, many bull sharks were sighted in Lake Pontchartrain.[17] Bull sharks have occasionally gone up the Mississippi River as far upstream as Alton, Illinois.[18] They have also been found in the Potomac River in Maryland.[19][20] A golf course lake in Queensland, Australia is the home to several bull sharks. They are believed to have become trapped following a flood in the 1990s. The golf course has capitalized on the novelty and now hosts a monthly tournament called the "Shark Lake Challenge."[21]
The bull shark is the best known of 43 species of elasmobranch in ten genera and four families to have been reported in fresh water.[22] Other species that enter rivers include the stingrays (Dasyatidae, Potamotrygonidae and others) and sawfish (Pristidae). Some skates (Rajidae), smooth dogfishes (Triakidae), and sandbar sharks (Carcharhinus plumbeus) regularly enter estuaries. Elasmobranchs' ability to enter fresh water is limited because their blood is normally at least as salty (in terms of osmotic strength) as seawater through the accumulation of urea and trimethylamine oxide, but bull sharks living in fresh water show a significantly reduced concentration of urea within their blood.[23] Despite this, the solute composition (i.e. osmolarity) of a bull shark in freshwater is still much higher than that of the external environment. This results in a large influx of water across the gills due to osmosis and loss of sodium and chloride from the shark's body. However, bull sharks in freshwater possess several organs with which to maintain appropriate salt and water balance; these are the rectal gland, kidneys, liver and gills. All elasmobranchs have a rectal gland which functions in the excretion of excess salts accumulated as a consequence of living in seawater. Bull sharks in freshwater environments decrease the salt-excretory activity of the rectal gland, thereby conserving sodium and chloride.[24] The kidneys produce large amounts of dilute urine, but also play an important role in the active reabsorption of solutes into the blood.[24] The gills of bull sharks are likely to be involved in the uptake of sodium and chloride from the surrounding freshwater,[25] whereas urea is produced in the liver as required with changes in environmental salinity.[26]
Initially, scientists thought the sharks in Lake Nicaragua belonged to an endemic species, the Lake Nicaragua shark (Carcharhinus nicaraguensis). In 1961, following specimens comparisons, taxonomists synonymized them.[27] They can jump along the rapids of the San Juan River (which connects Lake Nicaragua and the Caribbean Sea), almost like salmon.[12] Bull sharks tagged inside the lake have later been caught in the open ocean (and vice versa), with some taking as little as seven to eleven days to complete the journey.[27]
Bull sharks are able to regulate themselves to live in either fresh water or salt water. It is possible for the bull shark to live in fresh water for its entire life, but it has been observed that this does not happen for certain reasons, mostly due to reproduction. Young bull sharks will leave the brackish water in which they are born and move out into the sea in order to breed with bull sharks of the other sex. While theoretically, it may be possible for bull sharks to live in purely freshwater, it was observed that the bull sharks that were being experimented on had died within four years. The stomach was opened and all that was found were 2 small fishes that were unidentifiable. The cause of death could have been starvation since the primary food source for bull sharks resides in salt water.[28]
The bull shark is known to be able to live in both saltwater and freshwater. It was found in a research experiment that, the majority of the time, the bull sharks were found to be at the mouth of an estuary.[29] The water salinity was tested every month to determine if the difference in salinity is what drove bull sharks into the river. It was found that the bull shark stayed at the mouth of the river independent of the salinity of the water.[29] The driving factor for a bull shark to be in freshwater or saltwater is its age; as the bull shark ages the tolerance for very low or high salinity increases.[29] It was found that the majority of the newborn or very young bull sharks were found in the freshwater area, whereas the much older bull sharks were found to be in the saltwater, as they had developed a much better tolerance for the salinity.[29] This is one of the reasons why adult bull sharks will travel into the river (in order to reproduce). The newborns are not born with a high tolerance for high salinity, so they are born in freshwater and stay there until they are able to travel out.
Bull sharks are typically solitary hunters,[12] but occasionally hunt in pairs.[30] They often cruise through shallow waters, and can accelerate rapidly and be highly aggressive, even possibly attacking a racehorse in the Brisbane River in the Australian state of Queensland.[31]
The bull shark's diet consists mainly of bony fish and sharks, including other bull sharks,[3] but can also include turtles, birds, dolphins, terrestrial mammals, crustaceans, echinoderms, and stingrays. They hunt in murky waters because it is harder for the prey to see the shark coming.[1][32] Bull sharks have been known to use the bump-and-bite technique to attack their prey. Bull sharks have attacked hippopotamuses in Africa's Zambezi River, based on bite marks on the hippos' feet.[33]
The bull shark is known to be a solitary hunter, although there are brief moments in which the bull sharks will team up with another bull shark in order to make it easier to hunt and to trick prey.[34]
Sharks are known to be opportunistic when feeding,[35] and the bull shark is no exception to this, as it is part of the Carcharhinus family of sharks. Normally, sharks eat in short bursts, and when food is scarce, sharks digest for a much longer period of time in order to avoid starvation.[35] The bull shark continues to bite and tackle its prey until the prey is unable to escape, and then the bull shark eats its prey.[35]
The bull shark is known to populate the Indian River. In Florida, researchers examined the contents of the bull shark's stomach. Stingrays and Ariid catfishes, which are both abundant in the Indian River, were found to be in the stomach of examined bull sharks.[36] One surprising discovery, the head of a small shark, was found, suggesting that the bull shark is capable of feeding upon other sharks in addition to the other fish that it preys on.[36]
It also has been cited in the San Juan River area, that the bull shark had consumed sharks. Vorenburg induced a "shark eat shark" environment in which lemon sharks and bull sharks were put into an environment where they had to fight for food, and the injured sharks from the bouts were consumed by the bull sharks. In addition to lemon sharks, they also fed on young sandbar sharks. There has been no evidence to prove that there are different feeding patterns among young and adults or among males and females. Bull sharks do not actively seek out food, but rather are dependent on anything that is available to them. As part of their survival mechanism, bull sharks will regurgitate the food in their stomachs in order to escape from a predator as they stop for the regurgitated food.[37]
Bull sharks mate during late summer and early autumn,[38] often in the brackish water of river mouths. After gestating for 12 months, a bull shark may give birth to four to ten live young.[38] They are viviparous; they are born live and free-swimming. The young are about 70 cm (27.6 in) at birth and take 10 years to reach maturity. Coastal lagoons, river mouths, and other low-salinity estuaries are common nursery habitats.[3]
175 cm to 235 cm seems to be the size of a fully matured female bull shark that produce viable eggs for fertilization. The courting routine between bull sharks has not been observed in detail as of yet. It is speculated that the male bites the females on the tail until they turn upside down and they male can copulate at that point. At some points, the harassment of the male can become violent. It is not uncommon to see scratches and other marks on a mature female from the mating ritual.[39]
Bull sharks have an unusual migratory pattern in comparison to other sharks. They are found in rivers all over the world. They have the ability to go from seawater and freshwater. They give birth in the freshwater of rivers. The young bull sharks are free from predators while they grow up in the river before they go out to the sea in order to find mates.[40]
The ability to be able to survive in both freshwater and saltwater also gives another benefit that has been driven by evolution. Because the majority of sharks are only able to survive in saltwater, the bull shark has evolved to have their offspring in the freshwater where other sharks cannot enter.[41] The freshwater acts as a protective area where the young are able to grow and mature without the threat of larger sharks preying on the younger bull sharks.[41] This is an explanation for the behavior that is observed from the bull sharks as to why there would be any reason for the adult bull shark to ever travel into a freshwater area despite being able to tolerate the high salinity of marine water.
Bull sharks are born alive in freshwater which is in contrast to most sharks since they lay eggs. The average litter for a female bull shark is around 1 to 13 pups.[42] The average time span for a female bull shark to be pregnant is around 10 to 11 months.[43] The male bull shark is able to begin reproducing around the age of 15 years while the female cannot begin reproducing until the age of 18 years.[43] Unlike most sharks though, the bull shark does not rear their young like other sharks, the young bull sharks are born into flat, protected areas.[43] Freshwater presents a natural defense against most larger predators, and the flat land is an added defense as most large predators will not swim in shallow areas. This increases their chance of survival since the parents do not rear the young in the traditional manner. This is also the reason why there is a high mortality rate in young bull sharks. Since the parents do not rear and protect the young, any predator that is able to attack a young bull shark is easily able to kill and eat the young bull shark without much resistance.[44]
Since bull sharks often dwell in very shallow waters, they may be more dangerous to humans than any other species of shark,[12] and along with the tiger shark, oceanic whitetip and great white shark, are among the four shark species most likely to attack humans.[4]
One or several bull sharks may have been responsible for the Jersey Shore shark attacks of 1916, which were the inspiration for Peter Benchley's novel Jaws.[45] The speculation of bull sharks possibly being responsible is based on some attacks occurring in brackish and freshwater.
The bull shark is responsible for attacks around the Sydney Harbour inlets.[46] Most of these attacks were previously attributed to great white sharks. In India, bull sharks swim up the Ganges River and have attacked people. Many of these attacks have been attributed to the Ganges shark, Glyphis gangeticus, a critically endangered river shark species that is probably the only other shark in India able to survive in fresh water, although the sand tiger shark was also blamed during the 1960s and 1970s.
The bull shark prefers coastal water which is less than 100 feet in depth. This is mostly due to their feeding patterns since they prefer murky waters. This is also a problem since this gives the most interaction with humans. It is known that bull sharks inhabit areas off the coast of Florida, and there have been reports of bull sharks getting close enough to the coast to attack humans since the bull shark is a territorial animal.[47]
Behavioral studies have confirmed that sharks can take visual cues in order to discriminate between different objects.[48] The bull shark is able to discriminate between colors of mesh netting that is present underwater.[48] It was found that bull sharks tended to avoid mesh netting of bright colors rather than colors that blended in with the water. Bright yellow mesh netting was found to be easily avoided when it was placed in the path of the bull shark. This was found to be the reason that sharks are attracted to bright yellow survival gear rather than ones that were painted black.[48] This is very important because it gives an insight into how bull sharks are able to pick up certain visual keys underwater that might give them an advantage when seeking out certain prey.
In 2008, researchers tagged and recorded the movements of young bull sharks in the Caloosahatchee River estuary. Specifically, they were testing to find out what determined the movement of the young bull sharks.[49] It was found that the young bull sharks synchronously moved downriver when the environmental conditions changed.[49] This large movement of young bull sharks were found to be moving as a response rather than other external factors such as predators. An interesting find was that the movement was directly related to the bull shark conserving energy for itself. One way the bull shark is able to conserve energy is that when the tidal flow changes, the bull shark uses the tidal flow in order to conserve energy as it moves downriver.[49] Another way for the bull shark to conserve energy is to decrease the amount of energy needed to osmoregulate the surrounding environment.[49]
Bull sharks are apex predators and seldom have to fear being attacked by other animals. Humans are their biggest threat. Larger sharks, such as the tiger shark and great white shark, may attack them.[3] There have been stories documented in the media of saltwater crocodiles preying on young bull sharks in the rivers and estuaries of Northern Australia.[50]

Giants win the East, Broncos back into the playoffs, Matt Flynn, Saints, Colts get the No.1 pick and more. Matt Bowen
Let's take a quick look back at the Week 17 NFL schedule. My game notes from Sunday as we close out the 2011 regular season and move on to the playoffs. Here are ten things to you should be talking about today...
1. Giants win the NFC East: Have to look at the Cowboys' secondary play because it wasn't good enough—again. Victor Cruz took a base Flat route (Curl-Flat combo) vs. Terrence Newman in man coverage for a 70-plus yard TD, plus the Giants' WRs won inside of the numbers, in the vertical game and on the goal line. Throw in the poor tackling (plus technique) from this secondary on top of their inability to play Cover 1 and there is a reason they are going home for the offseason. Eli Manning and the Giants are the better football team when you break it down.
ICONThe Broncos still get the AFC West title, but need much more production from Tebow to beat the Steelers on Wild Card weekend.
2. Tebow, Broncos back into the playoffs: Denver is in the tournament after the Raiders loss to the Chargers, but there should be some concern with Tebow (6-22-60-1 INT) and this Broncos' offense heading into the post season. Option football just isn't going to get it done on Wild Card weekend when the Broncos host the Steelers. They need much more production from Tebow to have any shot to advance and he wasn't accurate with the football or comfortable in the pocket for the second straight week in the loss to K.C.
3. Matt Flynn's production—and future: Late season games can provide opportunities in multiple situations when backups get a chance to put their play on tape. And that's exactly what we saw from Flynn vs. the Lions. The Packers' No.2 QB (who is going to be a free agent this March) threw the entire route tree and finished with 480-yards to go along with 6 TDs against a team heading to the post season. Knowing how desperate NFL clubs are for talent at the QB position (think Kevin Kolb), look for Flynn to cash in this spring.
4. Saints keep rolling: The Saints might be playing the best football in the NFL right now and the numbers Drew Brees and this offense are putting up are ridiculous. To put it perspective, the Saints broke the all-time single season record for total yards (7,474) by passing the 2000 Rams. That was my rookie year in St. Louis and the best offense I have ever seen with Warner, Faulk, Bruce, Holt, etc. Eight wins in a row and a game plan that features TE Jimmy Graham and RB Darren Sproles to go along with Brees.
5. The Colts are on the clock: We are going to have plenty of time after the NFL scouting combine and in February and Andrew Luck's Pro Day at Stanford to break down the QB heading into the draft. However, with the Colts' loss to the Jags that locked up the No.1 overall pick, can you see any other scenario than Luck landing in Indy come April? The real story is finding out who will draft Baylor's Robert Griffin III...

The Resurrection Body Lyrics - Overcome
a spirit cast in stone, casehardened sanity
steadfast in credence, unable to falter
I cannot slacken my standards
a heart full of soundness
my feet fixed and unswayable
my faith is adamant
iron as straw and brass as rotton wood
contend not with me
my faith is my stronghold
oh grave where is your victory?
oh death your sting?
death has been swallowed up in victory
therefore I stand firm
and let nothing move me.

- Outstanding SeafoodClevelandparkguruVIPDined on 11/7/2014great serive at bar to start with cocktails. Dinner is outstanding. Seafood, lobster, chicken dishes were the best. a must if you are in the area.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Quiet out of season mealKitshozDined on 11/6/2014Rainy,cold night in Kennebunkport but the welcome was warm & friendly. Lobster chowder was outstanding & hit the spot. The scallops & butternut squash gnocchi was delicious & very filling ... Huge scallops. A lovely meal & well priced with attentive serviceSpecial Features:
- FoodGerryDined on 11/4/2014Tables are very close together and food was good, but dry.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great TimeFoodies4LifeDined on 11/2/2014Took my girlfriend out to dinner the other night and decided to try somewhere different around the area and we found Hurricane. Seeing as it was a cold, rainy night the hostess offered us a seat near the heater to warm ourselves up. Service wa a bit on the slower side, but the food was excellent!!! I would recommend this restaurant to anyone daring to try somewhere different if price is not a concern.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- DisappointedDined on 10/26/2014We were a bit disapointed by the place. We had read that it was "classy" so we were dressed nicely for our 1 year anniversary and it was a nice place but by no means classy. So we got a few odd looks when we walked in (through the bar area) being dressed up. The serivce was pretty bad. The nicest person to us was the busboy that brought us water. I think they may have been mad we had an 8:30 reservation on a sunday. The food was great though and they had a great wine list.Special Features:
- George n' Barbara's TableDrThoughtDined on 10/12/2014We had a splendid evening at The Hurricane ... and according to our server, we ate at the very table that President George H. W. Bush and his fabulous wife, Barbara ate at the very night before! Perhaps that why we had an even more amazing dinner than we had anticipated... or perhaps it was because the food was 'just THAT good... either way, our experience was wonderful!! The whole Maine Lobster was 'Off the Charts' delicious!! ~ Thanks for a terrific night!!Special Features:
- Good, not greatMartine4reviewsDined on 10/12/2014It was our fourth visit to this restaurant. This past visit was a little disappointing. The greatest feature of this restaurant is the views, and although we reserved about a week in advance and sent an additional email, we got a booth with no view. The noise level was distracting, the server was rushed and tried to keep up with too many customers. The swordfish was a little overdone and average overall. My past experiences were more notable, this time a little weak, would like to see them improve. I suppose it's hit or miss with this restaurant.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Kennebunkport in the fallLakelivingDined on 10/11/2014Rainy and cold, so we ducked into this restaurant for a bite to eat. Fabulous food and service!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- somewhat disappointingkiatDined on 10/9/2014After reading many reviews, I think the restaurant is inconsistent. Our server was very good and we did not experience any long delays. We waited for our table in the bar, and enjoyed the complimentary snacks and cozy ambiance. The drink prices were reasonable. Our meals were not as good as we expected. The wedge salad was bland and the spicy tuna rolls were worse. We had to ask for a side of wasabi to give them any flavor. The rack of lamb and the seafood stew was good but not great. We have had much better. There was a piece of lobster still in the shell, which made it messy to eat. There were a lot of mussels, one scallop,sliced into three medallions, and one clam. The chocolate dessert was the best part of the meal.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Food okay, but very slow serviceterynVIPDined on 10/4/2014Once seated it was 10 min. before we were acknowledged in any way. 15 min. in our server appeared, didn't introduce herself and took our drink order. She came back promptly, told us about restaurant week and disappeared again without waiting for us to say we were ready to order- we had plenty of time with the menu! We ordered just entrees. Nearly 45 minutes later they arrived, well after nearby tables who ordered after us had their food. Husband's pork chop was very, very good; mine was cold and gluey (ravioli with a maple cream sauce) but I think it would have been good hot. Server never checked in with us during the wait or after food arrived. It was very busy, so it may be better when they aren't so busy, but we won't be finding out.Special Features:
- Disappointingkportdiners2Dined on 10/3/2014This restaurant was well reviewed and as frequent visitors to Kport we felt negligent in not having tried it. The service was slow. The noise level high and tables crowded together. The prices were high for the quality of the food. The lobster chowder inedibly salty, the ceAsar salad drowned in dressing which did not disguise the brown edged lettuce and the salmon special was overly sweet and over cooked. The restaurant was disappointing and we will stick to Bandaloop or Pier 77 for moderately priced good food in a pleasant environment.Special Features:
- surprisingly deliciousOpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 10/3/2014Not your average lobster pound! Diverse menu.. Chef selections change daily deliciousSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Perfect and great foodOpenTable Diner Since 2005VIPDined on 10/2/2014Perfect and beautiful setting and the food was incredible!Special Features:
- Great value,lovely,elegant settingPsdlnVIPDined on 9/27/2014Very pleasant experience. Prix fixe dining option was a great value. Dishes are delicious, generous and stress fresh accompaniments. Hearty, calorie busting desserts come with the turf. The chef has a heavy hand with salt and we felt less would have been more. Even so, this is recommended dining choice for Kennebunkport.
- FabulousWcityDined on 9/25/2014We were seated at a nice window table just in time to catch the sun setting over the water. It was beautiful. The waiter was exceptionally good without being bothersome. The special martini was excellent. The food was excellent. The grilled swordfish was very good, although I thought it wasn't as flavorful as some that I've had. The creme brulee was excellent although the sugar top was a little too thick and hard. Overall I would say my husband and I loved the whole experience and would return for another dining experience.Special Features:
- Great restaurantNocooknightDined on 9/25/2014Very happy with our dinner here. Great views, great service, food was excellent and menu choices were enough that we know we need to come back and try something else. Good value for the $$$. Squash soup was excellent, orzo squash side very good as well. Hubby had lobster fettaccine and that was very good as well. Key lime pie yummy, apple dumpling dessert was the only disappointment. I think it was microwaved to heat it and the stuffing was dry and the pastry a bit chewy. We will definitely be back.Special Features:
- beachDined on 9/20/2014The service was excellent! The food was just okay. For the price, I don't think it was worth it. My husband ordered the filet and it was so salty I begged him to return it, but he continued to eat it. The portion size was small and he was hungry. I ordered the ravioli dish on the menu. It was good, but nothing I would order again. Our favorite was the chicken satay in peanut sauce. If I were to come back, I would order this as my meal, and this was only an appetizer! This place has a great ambience and awesome view. A nice romantic quiet spot, but the food was just so so. We were disppointed but still tipped good because our waitress was great!Special Features:
- Never disappointedlovenycDined on 9/19/2014Another lovely time at hurricane Lively. Delicious,friendly and comfortable,great staff and a place we look forward to on visits to MaineSpecial Features:

- Jem by the three boatsOpenTable Diner Since 2013Dined on 9/17/2014The only thing that would make this place even better would be free parking. Kennebunkport is a hard place to find parking, but Hurricane is worth it.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- No value for your moneyLoveEatingOutDined on 9/13/2014We had made reservation for our friend's 50th birthday - We had high expectations and were extremely disappointed. It is very overpriced for what you get. There are so many good seafood restaurants in the area that give you a lot more for your money. It is beautiful and the ambiance is very nice but honestly not worth the money. Our server - when she decided to grace our table - was also not terrific. We ordered a birthday cake for our friend - She literally put it on the table - we started to sing happy birthday and she just turned and walked away. Portions extremely small - you almost have to get the 10 salad before hand to be full. Would not go again.

- Surprise menuSwitchedmenuDined on 9/7/2014We were quite surprised to be given a brunch menu for a 2PM luncheon reservation. It was completely different from the sample suggestions on the web site luncheon menu. While the food was fine the lack of variety was disappointing.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- JosiebeachDined on 9/5/2014Very nice they gave us a great table w lovely view of water as I requested on Opentable for our anniversary. White table clothes, good food and wine, energetic atmosphere without being too loud. I would recommend and return.Special Features:
- Great food and friendly serviceFineFoodAppreciatedDined on 9/1/2014Our first time and we are looking forward to going back. It certainly lives up to its reputation. The food is delicious and beautifully prepared. The drinks were very good too. The desserts were elegantly presented and tasted great. Worth a trip from Portland any time of year; the chef and crew really know what they're doing. Great meal.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Expensive, lacking qualityBrneyedgrl0006Dined on 9/1/2014I was highly disappointed in the quality of food, ambiance, noise level of this restaurant. My husband and I had frequented the Hurricane in Ogunquit and expected the same excellent, innovative eating experience. We will not be returning
- Old meets NewOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 8/29/2014The food was exceptional- well prepared and great presentation. Portions were respectfully large without being overwhelming. Service was courteous and helpful. We had a window seat overlooking the river. Unfortunately, the air conditioning was blowing on our heads so I recommend central air if possible. The raspberry bread pudding was to die for!Special Features:
- Great Night in K PortOpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 8/28/2014Great dinner at Hurricane. The fish special was well prepared as well as the veal chop. Great location for a special dinner out.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Superb as alwaysLocalResidentVIPDined on 8/23/2014Our reviews are consistent....this is a terrific restaurant with a great staff and wonderful menu.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Kennebunk VacamartypDined on 8/21/2014Booked the Hurricane from the recommendations on line. Was not disappointed. Staff was extremely friendly. Food was way above average, almost White Barn quality but half as expensive. Drinks where expensive 4 cocktails for $45 but were of high quality and delicious. Dessert "blueberry pie ala mode" was exceptional. We had fish and meat and both where well prepared with just the right amount of interesting spices. Definite return visit anytime that we are in the area with time. This is a no rush two hour dining experience so if your in a hurry eat in the bar.Special Features:
- Great menu of seafoodsSylofQCDined on 8/21/2014We visit Southern Maine once a year and we discovered the Hurricane a couple of years ago. We make it a date to come visit them during our vacations. Seafoods were fresh (we had the Nova Scotia scallops and the Mediterranean Lobster stew) and prepared originally. The service was excellent with a few quirk : we had to ask for additional glasses for sparkling water and the waiter forgot to bring the herb tea my wife asked for. The wine list is good and you can find reasonably priced ones as well as more elaborate and more expansive ones. My wife likes drinking rosé (blush) and they only have very sweety ones (such as Zinfandel); a nice improvement would be to have a couple of French or Italian rosé to the list.Special Features:
- Oh what a night!EileenEVIPDined on 8/18/2014We had a great time at Hurricane's. The staff,particularly the bartenders,are amazing...friendly but not intrusive.it is a great place for conversation. We ran into someone at the bar who we hadn't seen for years(lives in a different state),and amazingly through the course of conversation realized we knew each other.That conversation was the stepping stone for a whole bar full of friendly folks joining in.If it hadn't been such a relaxed and friendly place we may never have spoken to the people sitting around us-and missed out on such an important reunion.It became a spirited and fun reunion.Special Features:
- Liked HurricaneHappytoreviewVIPDined on 8/18/2014This proved to be our favorite restaurant in Kennebunkport. The food was very good - we each had salad (one ceasar and one iceberg wedge), followed by pork chop for me and vegetarian pasta for my husband. Both were excellent. The waitress was very attentive, the location is wonderful especially if you get a table by the window which overlook the river. A wonderful view. And most importantly, the food was very tasty.Special Features:

- Good view, good lobster rollEaterVIPDined on 8/14/2014The view of the town and the river is lovely. Our waitress was friendly and eager to please. The lobster roll, though a bit salty for my taste, was filled with fresh lobster. The sweet potato fries were awesome.Special Features:

Beaumont/Port Arthur
From the Beaumont Police Department:
On Thursday, December 29, 2011 at 6:10pm, Beaumont Police Patrol Officers responded to Park St. and Lavaca in reference to shots fired. Officers spoke with a 29 year old black male who reported he was at the Khwana Food Mart at 4025 Park St., and attempted to pull in the parking lot when an unidentified black male confronted him.
The Beaumont Police Department has released the identity of a man killed in an accident that shut down Eastex Freeway on Wednesday. He was identified as Johnny Langton, 36, of Warren.
According to police reports, Langton was driving southbound on the freeway when it was struck by a Jeep hat had crossed over the median from the northbound lanes. The investigation is still ongoing as to why the accident occurred.
A three-year nightmare for a young mother ended in January when the late-Judge Britt Plunk ordered Lacey Marie Salter returned to her mother by the paternal grandparents who sought custody of the child based on the theory they could be better parents because they had more money than the mom.
The Beaumont Police Department is tending to an accident on Highway 69, just north of the Delaware and 11th Street exits and entrance ramps. The release from the BPD is as follows:
The Beaumont Police Department is looking for clues to the identity of a woman who was using a homicide victim's debit card days before her body was found.
Officers say 72-year-old Robbie Rae Allen was last heard from by family members on Tuesday, Dec. 13. The next day, a black woman wearing a large red jacket, white hat and jeans used Allen's card at the Fastlane at Major and Phelan in Beaumont, according to surveillance footage from the store.

Assault & Battery Case Summaries
For more information about the types of assault and battery charges attorney Casale has handled or how our firm can help you, please see the case summaries below or contact our Massachusetts office today.
- Assault and Battery on a Child with Injury, Assault and Battery with a Dangerous Weapon – All Charges Dismissed
- Assault and Battery with Dangerous Weapon, Assault and Battery on a Retarded Person - Not Guilty on All Counts
- Assault and Battery - Not Guilty
- Assault and Battery, Intimidating a Witness - Dismissed
- Multiple Charges - Dismissed After Pretrial Probation Ends
- Multiple Dockets - All Charges Dismissed
- Assault and Battery, Threatening to Commit a Crime - Not Guilty on All Counts
Assault and Battery on a Child with Injury, Assault and Battery with a Dangerous Weapon – All Charges Dismissed – Westboro District Court – March 26, 2014
On June 24, 2013, our client, a 34 year old gentleman, was charged with Assault & Battery (A&B) on a Child Causing Injury and Assault & Battery (A&B) with a Dangerous Weapon. According to police reports, the 7 year old daughter of the gentleman's fiancé burst into the couple's bedroom without warning or knocking. The mother and her fiancé (our client) explained to the little girl that she was not allowed to enter the bedroom without knocking and that if she did so again, she would be punished with a "spanking with the belt". The child left the bedroom only to return several minutes later in the same fashion. Once again, the mother and our client admonished the 7 year old, explaining that she could not enter the couple's bedroom without knocking. They again informed the child that should this behavior continue that she would be punished with a "spanking with the belt". A short time later the 7 year old once again burst into the bedroom without knocking. According to reports, after this third (3rd) occurrence and two (2) warnings, our client did spank the child with the belt as the mother and he had warned.
Several days passed and the child went to a pool party with the biological father where someone pointed out a red mark on the little girl's thigh to the biological father, which could be seen while she wore her bathing suit. He questioned the 7 year old who told him our client had spanked her with the belt. The father called Department of Child Services and the police and our client was arrested and charged with A&B with Injury to a Child and A&B with a Dangerous Weapon, both Felonies. The gentleman hired Attorney Gregory Casale.
Attorney Casale filed a motion with the court arguing that the state had no right to interfere with the right of a parent or "one who stood in the place of a parent" to discipline their child as they saw fit, so long as the discipline did not rise to the level of abuse. Massachusetts is one of a handful of states that have refused to address the issue of corporal punishment head on and therefore there are no clearly defined laws as to what is and is not prohibited. However, there are ancillary cases in which Dept. of Children Services was involved as either plaintiff or defendant where the courts have discussed the pertinent issues without setting out guiding statutes or case law.
Attorney Casale argued that in this case, the gentleman was a parent ad loci (standing in place of the parent) and that the action that he took in relation to the child was merely parental discipline that was meted out thoughtfully, with fair warning, in a manner that was not carried out in anger and did not cause substantial harm to the child. In other words, the gentleman, with cooperation and participation of the biological mother, had decided that this was the way that they wanted to discipline their child. The manner in which they decided to discipline their child did not arise out of anger but by a genuine desire to discipline the child in a manner that they saw fit to teach the child how to behave. The judge agreed and all charges were Dismissed.
Assault and Battery with Dangerous Weapon, Assault and Battery on a Retarded Person - NOT GUILTY ON ALL COUNTS - Fitchburg District Court March 11, 2013
A 21-year-old young man who worked as a counselor at a group home for the mentally impaired was charged with assaulting and battering one of the house residents. The alleged victim, who is mentally challenged and known to have a violent disposition, named attorney Casale's client as the person who struck him. Images of the bruising from the alleged victim's torso were sent to the FBI crime lab. Attorney Casale was able to show that the imprint was the sole of a shoe that did NOT match the sole print of any footwear owned or worn by his client. 10 witnesses who work at the group home testified for the Commonwealth. However, attorney Casale was able to limit the admissible evidence of the Commonwealth, effectively stripping away all potentially incriminating evidence from the Commonwealth's case.
After the Commonwealth finished presenting their evidence, attorney Casale's made a motion for a directed verdict by the presiding judge, which was allowed. Not guilty on all charges.
Assault and Battery - NOT GUILTY - Worcester District Court February 20, 2013 Jury Trial
A woman alleged that her ex-husband, the defendant represented by attorney Casale, slapped her in the face while she was sitting in the passenger's seat, next to her father, in his car. The alleged victim and her father were in the father's car, outside of the defendant's home, picking up the seven-year-old and four-year-old children of the now divorced couple. The seven-year-old came home from the previous week's visit with his mother and told his dad that his grandmother made him hold out his arm and struck him with the sole of her shoe, leaving a mark that was clearly visible in photographs that dad took upon the child's return home. The defendant testified that he merely put his arm into the passenger window to try to show the photographs to the ex-wife, who had no desire to see them.
The alleged victim's father took the stand and testified that he was sitting in the driver's seat and observed the defendant reach into the car and slap his daughter in the face. Under a heated cross examination by sttorney Casale the father changed his testimony several times and essentially lost his credibility with the jury. The alleged victim fared no better under a similarly heated cross-examination and changed her account of the details of the incident several times trying to explain discrepancies brought out by attorney Casale between the statements she made to the police, the recorded 911 tape when she called in the incident and the account that she provided on direct examination.
The jury was out no more than 10 minutes with a not guilty verdict.
Assault and Battery, Intimidating a Witness - Dismissed - Westboro District Court
A 28-year-old woman was charged with Assault and Battery and Intimidating a Witness after a domestic altercation with her husband. When police arrived on scene, they observed scratch and bite marks on her husband's body. Police determined that our client had been the primary aggressor and she was arrested. Attorney Casale successfully got all charges dismissed.
Multiple Charges - Dismissed After Pretrial Probation Ends - No Record - Wrentham District Court.
A 19-year-old client was charged with Disorderly Conduct, Resisting Arrest and Assault and Battery on a Police Officer. Attorney Casale was able to have the Assault and Battery charge dismissed and the other two charges were continued on pre-trial probation for three months. After the three months, so long as the client does not get rearrested, those charges will be dismissed as well keeping this young man's record absolutely clean.
Multiple Dockets and Charges - All Charges Dismissed - Westboro District Court
A 34-year-old woman was traveling in a red Jeep Cherokee on Route 6/28 in Bourne. An officer randomly ran her license plate to find that the status was revoked for insurance cancellation on a green Volvo. The Defendant admitted to not having a driver's license and when the Officer ran her name through the computer, it was determined that the Defendant had two outstanding warrants. The first warrant was issued out of Falmouth District Court for two charges of Assault and Battery with a Dangerous Weapon and one Assault and Battery charge. The second was a warrant issued out of the Falmouth District Court for Trespassing. Attorney Casale represented the Defendant on all three dockets and was successful in getting all eight charges dismissed.
- Docket # 1
- Uninsured Motor Vehicle - DISMISSED
- Number Plate Violation to Conceal ID - DISMISSED
- Operating a Motor Vehicle with a Suspended License - DISMISSED
- Unregistered Motor Vehicle - NOT RESPONSIBLE
- Docket # 2
- Assault and Battery with a Dangerous Weapon - DISMISSED

Assault and Battery, Threatening to Commit a Crime - Not Guilty on All Counts - Westboro District Court
A 24-year-old young man was charged with Assault and Battery and Threatening to Commit a Crime after an alleged altercation with his ex-girlfriend. The ex-girlfriend went to the police and told them that she and the defendant had gotten into an argument regarding their relationship. She told police that the defendant shook her and threatened to put a bullet in her head. She also claimed that the defendant told her that she didn't know what she was getting herself into. At trial, attorney Casale was successful in obtaining a not guilty verdict.

W.Va. pastor resigns after lending bus to policeSeptember 11, 2013 @ 8:41 am
CHARLESTON, W.Va. (AP) - A West Virginia pastor is being forced out of his church job for lending the church's bus to law officers for a meth lab bust.
Chris Wilkinson said Wednesday he plans to resign as pastor of Morning Star Community Church at Hamlin. He says some church members were unhappy with his decision to let law enforcement use the bus.
Wilkinson is also Hamlin's mayor and police chief. He says he has no regrets about lending the bus and would do it again.
Lincoln County chief sheriff's deputy J.J. Napier says the church bus allowed officers to surprise the suspects.
Authorities made three arrests in last week's bust. Napier says as officers piled out of the church bus, the reaction from the suspects was, "Oh God, they've got me."

Written by Jill Nossa Wednesday, 11 December 2013 00:00
This is the season of giving, when people tend to think more about the needs of others. One particular organization in the community is devoted to giving to others throughout the year, though they do appreciate and rely on the generosity of others during the holidays. The Guardian Angel Family Crisis Center in Sea Cliff is devoted to helping women and children on a daily basis, and the needs of those they serve often become amplified this time of year.
Last month, the center extended its thrift store space and opened a holiday boutique, where children's toys and clothing are displayed for purchase, as well as holiday decorations. Women's clothing is also for sale, and the space now has a dressing room. A special aspect of this holiday boutique is the Giving Tree, where those who wish to purchase a gift for a child in need can take a name from the tree to ensure the child's Christmas wish is fulfilled.
Founder Barbara Costello runs the place and is clearly committed to her job - a job that, like a mother's, is 24 hours a day, seven days a week. She develops a bond with each of the women and children in crisis who she helps through the program, and is personally there for them to babysit, give a ride or bring food in emergency situations.
"We help them, but they have to help themselves...they have to do the work but when you're in crisis, it's tough, you need support. Nobody can do it alone." She strives to give the women the tools to be self-sufficient and she also stresses the importance of community support.
The mission of Guardian Angel, founded in 2004, is to help women and children overcome weaknesses and nurture their strengths, helping them to become "vital members of the community." Costello and the board have strict criteria for those they help, and part of their service is the thrift store where families can find clothing, toys and other necessities for their children. The organization goes beyond giving just the essentials, though, and offers medical care and helps provide shelter, when necessary.
She feels its important to have local support on a personal level, and has numerous volunteers from the community who help with the families.
"A lot of people want to give but they don't know how. I ask them what their passion is and what they think they could bring to the table...everybody has a gift." Somehow, she says, things work out. A lot of people know that they can donate gently used clothing, toys and baby gear to the shop and sometimes they want to give more.
"It's about helping your community. You might think, I want to help my neighbor but I don't know what my neighbor needs, so I'll give it to Barbara and she'll figure it out," notes Costello.
While of course she looks ahead, Costello says she mainly goes on a day by day basis of assessing needs.
"Every morning I pray that I will have the resources to fulfill the needs for whatever comes up that day," she says. It might mean stepping in to babysit if the sitter is sick, or driving a woman in labor to the hospital.
"Things come up, and I'm there for them."
One thing Costello says she would like to see this season is more "open hearts" in the community; a volunteer shared a story of how a stranger helped her pay for her groceries in a pinch, without passing judgment or asking questions.
"The situation could've went the other way, but that person had an open heart," says Costello. "I'd love to see more of that."

Hope the developers can get this fixed would love to be able to use it again on my updated site, worked like a charm on 2.5 but not at all on 3.0.
unless i am completely missing something - other than the fact that so many of you actually gave this mod a '5', i would stay far away from this and look towards a more rewarding use of your time.
And I quote the following comment, since it is the truth:
"In general, Joomla is easy to work, and if someone can't make this extension work properly, I don't believe the user can even manage to install Joomla.".
Now I wonder where the sixth star.
thank you very much and expect more.
Thanks :)
Considering that this extension is free, it's fair users do their homework before complaining. In general, Joomla is easy to work, and if someone can't make this extension work properly, I don't believe the user can even manage to install Joomla.
Courtesy and Honesty - I sent a friendly email and 2 days later still received no reply:
"Hi Kowshar,
I am new to Joomla and still learning.
I have installed SP Tab and I see it in Modules, but there is absolutely
no documentation on what to do next, to be able to choose the different
styles as shown on the demo page.
I have read the forum for SP Tab and there is no instructions there either.
There no documentation included when one follows the "Documentation" link
here: (Cannot post a link here, but I mentioned the link that the "documentation" button links to, but there is no documentation.)
Please can you inform me as to where exactly the
documentation/instructions are?
Kind regards,
Pros & Cons of the extension and its performance - I could not get it to work, since there is no documentation/instructions.
Level of support received - None and others asking for documentation, in the SP Tab creators' forum, as long as 4 months ago, also recieved no answer.
Ease of usage and deployment - Cannot get it to work since the is no documentation/instructions for people new to Joomla and the product.
Purpose of using the extension (i.e., "I used this extension for a magazine site.") - I used the version 1.5 extension for a standard version 1.5 Joomla site.
Level of difficulty - For me, new to Joomla and the extension, it was very difficult to use without documentation/instructions.
Your experience level with Joomla and web technologies - New to Joomla and still learning.
Anyway, it's already an marvelous extension.
Only one question. Can I show only by alphabetic name modules?
I don't need this feature. Thanks
However, JQUERY USERS beware! if you've linked to the jquery lib in your source file (even if you don't use any jquery scripts) SP tabs will not show up on your page. I spent half an hour trying to figure out what the problem was, then as soon as I removed my jquery link, it worked perfectly.
It will work with jQuery if you use jQuery noConflict method.
if ($defined(window.jQuery) && $type(jQuery.noConflict)=='function') {

About Terry & Dawn Stitt
Terry and Dawn are Florida natives that have been escaping the summer heat by going to Beech Mountain since the early 80's. We enjoy our family getaways playing golf, antiquing, driving the Blue Ridge Parkway and relaxing.
Terry & Dawn Stitt purchased this house in 2003
Why Terry & Dawn Stitt chose Beech Mountain
We bought this piece of heaven in the late 90's. We wanted to be on the golf course with a good view and close to the ski slopes. We found it here, on the 16th Tee Box of the Beech Mountain Golf Course, where the view of the dogleg left fairway and two small ponds with fountains is ideal! The long range view in winter is a bonus!

We built the house with all kinds of family activities in mind, no matter what the season or weather conditions. The main floor covered porch with comfortable gliders is a great place to watch the wildlife, read, or just relax with family and friends. The side deck with the picnic table and grill is a perfect barbeque spot. Light a bonfire in the fire pit and you're set.

Apparently, yes. It may have been somewhere around the 1960's or so. There is not much documentation other than the word of a few but as to the system Isshinryu there are a couple of black and white photo's of Tatsuo-san wearing what appears to be a red belt with a gold stripe through the center. The photo of Tatsuo-san is dtd around the mid-sixties, i.e. 1966 - 68.
It would be nice to see the entire belt system from the Okinawans but alas all my inquiries have been, to date, ignored. The belt system seems to have fallen out of favor since the sixties and except on rare occasions the Okinawan karate systems seem to have remained with the generally accepted belt system based on those passed to us from the Japanese Judo system by Kano Sensei.
Okinawan Dan System
1st - 3rd: black belt with silver strip in middle lengthwise
3rd - 6th: black belt with gold strip in middle lengthwise
7th - 9th: red belt with gold strip in middle lengthwise
10th: solid gold obi
1961 era development; not fully validated from any official Okinawan source to date.
RyuTe RenMei: These type of belts were issued by the Zen Okinawa Karate Kobudo Rengo Kai. In this case "Zen" means all, as in all of Okinawa. Shortcut, All Okinawa. This organization existed between 1965 through the middle 70's. The belts were characterized by silver or gold stripes. The silver was for 1st and 2nd dan and gold for 3 through 6th dan, all on the black Obi. 7th and up was gold on red. The size of the stripe increased with the rank. ~ November 7, 2010 at 2:00pm FB Wall

Jacksonville insurance company donates to local shelter
Updated On: Aug 12 2014 04:05:24 PM CDT
A Jacksonville Insurance business wanted to help the local homeless population after seeing homeless people on the streets while driving to work.
On Tuesday we stopped by SIA Group in Jacksonville where they had things like toothbrushes, deodorant and paper towels to give to the Onslow Homeless Shelter.
The items were set out on a table for the Onslow Community Outreach Executive Director to pick up and take back to the shelter.
"We're a very tight knit family as you can tell. We're very involved with the community and we have some employees who have driven by highway 17 and had noticed some homeless people and they came back and said what can SIA Group do to make a difference," said SIA Group Risk Advisor Suzanne Ringham.
The group also donated a $500 check towards the homeless shelter.

Community Notes
Jon Masters follows the recent foibles surrounding DRM – Digital Rights Management – and gives a roundup of the latest news from a variety of Linux community groups.
February was a month filled with discussions around DRM. News stories, blogs, editorials, LUG discussions – you name it – DRM was a hot topic. It all started when Apple CEO Steve Jobs posted a blog-style editorial on the Apple corporate website defending Apple's much-publicized use of DRM technology in products like iTunes and the iPod. His editorial was timed, in part, to coincide with reports of mounting criticism in Europe of the difficulties faced by third parties who want to interoperate with the "FairPlay" DRM technology Apple uses to lock up its digital media. Did I say "lock up"? I'm sorry, I meant "protect you from yourself."
