Home > Press > Tumor Detection, Data Encryption to Benefit from UH Research
Professor Pradeep Sharma Awarded More Than $250K for Quantum Dots Work
From detecting tumors to encrypting data better, one young engineering professor's nanotechnology work at the University of Houston holds enormous potential for medicine and electronics.
Pradeep Sharma, assistant professor of mechanical engineering at UH, received the Office of Naval Research's Young Investigator Program (YIP) Award for his proposal on the "Novel Size-Effects in the Coupled Mechanical Deformation and Opto-Electronic Behavior of Quantum Dots and Wires." The total award of $262,471 for three years is intended to further propel Sharma's research.
"It's a proposal that will investigate new scaling laws for quantum dots due to mechanical strain," Sharma said. "Quantum dots are very small clusters of semiconductor material, and they exhibit some unusual and exciting opto-electronic properties. They have tremendous potential in future nanoelectronics."
Pradeep Sharma - University of Houston
Some examples of those nanoelectronics applications include next generation lasers and lighting devices, quantum cryptography, information storage and chemical sensors. On the medical side, this research may one day aid doctors in detecting and surgically removing cancerous cells in the body.
"Among many other applications, quantum dots can be used as biological labels," Sharma said. "For example, one can suitably tailor the size and bio-treatment of a dot so that it preferentially seeks and attaches to tumor cells. Then, simply by shining light on the body, one may optically detect and pinpoint precise locations of tumors."
Though Sharma is well aware of the possible products of his research, he maintains his work is largely fundamental and provides the basis for these potential uses rather than the actual technology itself. He estimates that his current quantum dots work will be put to practice in the nanoelectronics and medical arenas in the next five to 10 years.
The YIP program is designed to support and encourage the teaching and research of outstanding new faculty members in higher education, who have received a graduate degree. Sharma, who began teaching at the Cullen College of Engineering in January 2004, received his doctorate from the University of Maryland-College Park in 2000. Also benefiting from this award are two UH doctoral students who will have the opportunity to work with Sharma on his research for the next three years.
"This award is supposed to be a jump start for young professors, and historically, that's what it's done," Sharma said.

James Gonzalo Medina, 40, allegedly told FBI informant he wanted to bomb synagogue 'for the glory of Allah.'02:00 03.05.16 | 0 comments
The US will not be able to stop this in the UN and any punitive measures imposed on the Palestinians will not fail to have serious repercussions for Israel and America. Europe is clearly not buying into the American-Israeli argument, and right now the US and Europe are hoping to get the BRICs to take a hand in bailing them out of their current economic woes. The US will have to get off its high horse. The only thing Obama can reasonably do, if he can bring himself to make a decision once in his life, is to submit a reasonable counter proposal. But this counter proposal must state clearly that settlement construction will stop completely and never resume. It must set clear timelines, and it must not contain the offensive language used by Blair, Ashton, and Ross about "demographic facts on the ground." Otherwise, you may as well use your veto, Mr. Obama.

Ole Miss recruiting Houston's Chris Jones
"It's been exciting," said Jones. "You get to relate to some of those guys, see what they're like."
The 6-foot-7, 255-pounder is spending the week in Florida but the talk Wednesday wasn't about where Jones is this week. It quickly became about where he will be next season.
Jones is considered by many to be Mississippi State's strongest verbal commitment.
"You know, you never know what the future brings, but I'm still with Mississippi State," Jones said.
He confirmed he got an offer from in-state rival Ole Miss on Tuesday.
Nkemdiche said Ole Miss remains his top choice, followed by LSU and Florida.
Conner has his own options, MSU and Ole Miss among them. He plans to announce his college choice live on ESPN during Friday's game. Alabama and Auburn remain in the hunt.
Jones said he has been trying to get Conner to join him at Mississippi State.
"I've kind of got a feeling where he's going but I ain't going to say it just yet," Jones said, then laughed. "I know where he's going. Me, him and Nkemdiche, we're really tight. I'm 85 percent sure (where they're going). Give me $50, I'll tell you."
The trio got a good laugh out of the joke but it's a topic that won't go away until national signing day in February.
Nkemdiche, whose older brother Denzel has become a star linebacker at Ole Miss, has already de-committed from Clemson. He admitted a package deal isn't out of the question.
"We always talk about (recruiting). We have a little something in the bag," Nkemdiche said. "We're not saying too much right now but we talk about recruiting."

LOS GATOS, Calif. and JOPLIN, Mo., Nov. 16, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- To address the ongoing emotional needs of children and teens in the Joplin, Missouri area, Ozark Center, the behavioral health division of Freeman Health System, has partnered with Joplin Schools to offer more than 5,000 students the SchoolMessenger Talk About It® service, a free, 24-hour communication service that allows them to confidentially reach out for help using their cell phone or PC. Effective immediately, if any student within the district is faced with problems that might warrant adult intervention, including depression, family concerns, suicidal thoughts, or problems related to the aftermath of the 2011 tornado, they are encouraged to seek help sending a text or online message to a school staff member or an Ozark Center counselor.
Funding for the project is provided in part by Missouri Foundation for Health, a philanthropic organization that strives to improve the health of those in the communities it serves, and the Joplin Tornado First Response Fund, established to distribute donations made on behalf of the community of Joplin in the wake of the May 2011 tornado. Overseen by a board of trustees appointed by the City of Joplin, the Joplin Tornado First Respond Fund aids organizations supporting the needs of tornado survivors living in Joplin and Duquesne.
"In its 47 years of operation, the Ozark Center has never experienced more need from the community than it has since the 2011 tornado. This is especially true among children and teens," said Phil Willcoxon, Ozark Center chief executive officer. "Research among adolescents tells us that one barrier to accessing crisis services is their unwillingness to meet face-to-face with adults or talk by phone with a crisis hotline counselor. Since cell phones and texting are undoubtedly the preferred communication method for students, this program allows them to reach out anonymously using the resources they find most convenient."
Joplin Schools students may access a counselor by texting "help" to 85130 or by logging on at 2TalkAboutIt.com. Ozark Center's Access Crisis Intervention Team will be available to respond 24/7. In addition, officials from Joplin Schools will access electronic messages from students.
"Text messaging allows counselors to speak with youth on their level," said Dr. C.J. Huff, Joplin Schools Superintendent. "It's how they communicate. This tool is going to provide a much needed layer of support so we can respond rapidly to the mental health needs of our kids."
Launched in 2005 and currently in use by more than 500,000 students nationwide, Talk About It was designed to provide an anonymous and confidential way for kids to 'speak up' using text or online messaging. With electronic communication, students can avoid the stigma of being seen reaching out to a counselor or faculty member for help.
"When disaster strikes, it's difficult for some students to feel normal when the world around them is still struggling with the challenges of recovering and rebuilding," said Carter B. Myers, vice president of Anonymous Communications Solutions at SchoolMessenger and co-developer of Talk About It. "We understand that for many at that age, meeting face-to-face with an adult or asking for assistance carries a stigma. By allowing them to step forward anonymously, using their communication tools of choice, they can speak up virtually, ask for help and learn about the variety of services available to them."

Excellent service by PetFlow!! After a lengthy research with no avail on my part, I asked Customer Support for their recommendation on which food will achieve our Chocolate Lab, Mocha & her nutritional needs due to her ongoing health problems. Even though response was estimated for over 24 hours, it was within minutes that I received a response via Email about my concerns from Pet Flow along with a "Link" to click on. "Lo and Behold", Customer Service Rep had already pre-selected ALL categories pertaining to our Baby's needs so when I clicked on the link, recommended canned food was immediately present, RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME!! Now, How's That For Service? Recommendation was Nature's Recipe: Lamb, Rice & Barley Cuts in Gravy, which is easy to digest. I am so appreciative of Pet Flow...our Baby is now in stable condition, more active & a bit more alert...definitely showing a "pause" or "halt" in her unfortunate declining health. We continue her medications for maintenance and diet from Pet Flow, as WE ARE DEFINITELY NOT READY TO LET HER GO JUST YET!!! Thank You Pet Flow so much for caring about our Baby and for being sensitive to our needs.

I think Dico wins this one
Best Hunter ever on Bloodscalp
Nurwon totally! He brings the swank lol
It's definitely Slambo. The Horde dogs can probably vouch for him, if any have ever been lucky enough to escape his deadly gaze. Once, in a Twin Peaks with 1 minute to spare, he carved a bloody path through 2 rogues, a dk and a mage as I made a desperate sprint for the touchdown. Halftime was over and it was all the time he needed. The Hordies were dead the whole time, and they didn't even notice yet.

Nairobi-born Black hates Canada … won't quit complaining
"To be a black Muslim woman in Toronto is to feel deep isolation, the result of omnipresent systemic anti-black, patriarchal and Islamophobic discrimination… forces that torment me and members of my community… and so two months ago I tweeted, "Plz Allah give me strength not to cuss/kill these men and white folks out here today… Our lives are plagued by institutional and individual anti-black racism that compromises our access to safety, economic freedom, proper health care, food, housing, employment, education and culturally restorative support services. To be black in this city is to fight to survive." – (emphasis added) – Yusra Khogali, co-founder of "Black Lives Matter Toronto" (1).
That was very kind of Yusra — backing off from killing us, and all that — and I must admit that I sometimes feel rather like killing something myself after spending a few minutes reading rabid, anti–White garbage like this in the Toronto "Red" Star. But read it I must, if I am to stay fully aware of the dangers we face, as White Europeans throughout the world are vilified and prepared for multicultural genocide by the likes of Ms. Khogali.
(If "black lives matter" so much to Ms. Khogali, then she has the whole African continent to express her sympathies. Better yet, by simply returning home to Nairobi, Kenya to live among her own tribal people would free her from the ravages of Toronto's "anti-black racism". So … off you go. Bye! ELN Editor)
It is also worth noting that while such language as Ms. Khogali used in her Tweet would carry a very real risk of investigation, and the possible laying of "hate" charges … if uttered by a White person. Members of privileged minorities can apparently say such things and walk away completely unscathed by our massive, publically-funded "human rights" industries. >>to Full Report

in response to MrMinorI have this case http://www.youtube.com/user/BallisticOfficialYT It makes the phone virtually indestructible. The video speaks for itself.
MrMinor Jul 16, 2010 5:38 AM
in response to BorssThanks for your reply. That case does look like it would pass the protection part of my requirement, but it would change the way it looks and feels too much. That is a pretty big and bulky looking case. I am looking for something as invisible and thin as possible. I know that both of those things are somewhat contradictory to protecting the glass, but I am just trying to find the case that best fits those requirements.
Joe Z in VA Jul 16, 2010 5:56 AM
in response to MrMinorThere wouldn't be any other case or "invisible shield" like products that would protect it from cracking or smashing. Most of the products advertised protect them from scratches and have grips for slip resistance.
They don't protect from drops from any height no matter if it's a foot or five feet. One company even tested the 'bumper' from drops and it smashed the glass in the same amount of drops they've done without one. Nor would it be break resistance if you hit it against your table by accident.
Otterbox and the one case in the YouTube link are designed for the drop durability. The other cases are as said 'scratch resistant' and have grips on them for slip resistance.
MrMinor Jul 16, 2010 5:57 AM
in response to Joe Z in VASorry Joe, but I have seen plenty of cases that protect the glass from breaking. I am not looking for something to promise the glass won't break, but just give some added protection. Any of the rubberized (or other similar material) type cases will do this. I am just looking for the one that is the least obtrusive.

Friendliness of staff, location near airport
Charge for Internet
Henry hotel is a good solid hotel in Erding. It is 5 minutes walk from the town center, and a 10-15 minutes drive from the airport, so it is great for a first or last night in Germany when flying from Munich.
It was next to a fairly busy road. Internet costs 5 euro, while in all other hotels in Germany / Austria on this trip it was free.
Facilities were contemporary and room very clean.
Room was like a shoebox and really just too small. I did not pay for the cheapest single room but the superior - the difference I was told was only in the size of the bed. Also, I arrived by train only to find that "taxis are scarce" (words of hotel staff) and hence in driving rain had to find my way by foot from the station. I was soaked!
Very, very nice!
All was good!
The place was great and the staff was very friendly.
Fantastic hotel Very Nice.
Be Ware the Hotel Shuttle is expensive 2 of us in a car charged almost 30 Euro 1 way. The S-Bahn takes just under an hour with 1 change
The rooms with kitchen is not equipped with dishes. WI FI connection is very expensive.
i didnt get family room as reseved but two seperate room.
The internet connection was good, the desk staff spoke English, the breakfast room was cute, and there's a great, cheap Thai restaurant nearby, which you could walk to if you had to. (You have to go the long way around because of the railroad tracks.)
I did not think the room was maintained on a level with the atmosphere the hotel was trying to project. The mattress and duvet were thin (if adequate). Scuff marks on the walls, moldy grout in the shower, and no shower curtain (rings for a curtain, but no curtain). The toilet paper holder fell apart unceremoniously on its second use. Little things like that. Still, perfectly adequate.
Clean , neat , good breakfast , helpful staff.
When checking-in they informed us that their airport shuttle did not operate during Octoberfest even though on the booking site it says it did. We had to pay for a cab and I would have booked elsewhere had I known this.
I was impressed by their service... picked up at the airport after arriving by train from Italy. Staff was wonderful, room comfortable and very clean. Breakfast was great, dining room charming and I was shuttled back to the airport on time.
It was a long evening for me since there were no channels on the tv in English.
Good service
It's not a typical 4 stars hotel and far away from the airport. They charge eur 12 for return shuttle car. I may stay in any 4 star hotel near Munich main train station next time.
friendly staff.... close to airport if you have car and navi system
no AC, trains run by also at night, not easy to carry up bags to top floor
Close to Munich Airport
Too close to the railway. The train pass by almost every 20-30 minutes through out the night and church bell rings every 30 minutes.
The staff were extremely helpful and pleasant. The room was wonderful and the breakfast delicious.
The location was perfect for our use. The staff was most friendly and helpful. The breakfast menu and the room was light, scenic ane just had that friendly ambience
no comment
Jet plane noise late into the night; However this is to be expected due to the proximity to the airport and well worth the convenient access to the airport the following morning.
Nice rooms, freindly staff especially those of the shhuttle service to the airport. Excellent pick-up service from the airport as well
The restaurant is right there on the grounds and had good food and service. The reception area was interesting and not "average." Family- run and it was clear that the family had their own life as well.
Getting there was a complete hassle. I saw the address was on the train station just before the airport, so I got off there. big mistake! There is no "station" in fact, just a platform in the middle of no where. It was dark and they were building a road past there, so I had to walk, carrying my suitcase down to a road, where I was able to flag a taxi after a wait. 12€ to the hotel. Then they charge 6 for their shuttle in morning. I will not go back unless I am driving...probably stay at a hotel with free shuttle and go to the airport. Breakfast is not included.
So clean, modern and welcoming all around.
Parking is insanely expensive and breakfast at 21 euro per person does seem over the top. On the plus side, the breakfast was good.
How easy it was to get there and to public transportation. The rooms were really clean. Breakfast was great and the staff was friendly.
There was no small store nearby to by things we forgot (baby items, soap etc)
Nice hotel next to the Munich Airport. Good for an overnight stay before an early morning flight.
Expensive, but not the most expensive hotel in the area. Over 200 Euro for one night (5 hour stay) is pretty steep for a convenience stop. Also, I asked for a non-smoking room, but only smoking was available. Annoying.
The roomservice served without fork or knife....
The staff in the evening was quit paticular, luckily the next morning they where more helpfull. Beds are way to narrow and the absence of rooms with baths are mindboggling.
I had a long layover in Munich and need a place to rest overnight. The room was clean and comfortable. The staff was friendly and helpful. The shuttle to the airport was most convienent.
Excellent value for a hotel in this area. Highly recommend for anyone.
The hotel is very convenient to the Munich Airport.
The rooms were spacious and very clean.
The bathrooms were warm and have all of the extras.
The kitchen is excellent, serving a number of local German dishes at very reasonable prices.
Breakfast was fresh, great choices and plentiful.
The staff was friendly, helpful and accommodating
The hotel airport shuttle costs EU 8 for each way.

traders are going to keep HEK @ $4.00 no matter what!!!!
Sentiment: Hold
I would say not ...
please consider that in the past 6 months , the price has been as low as 2.65 .... when the PF deal
was announced , there was a strong move up to 4.95 , WITH attendant volume ...
that means that even at $4 , there's a lot of profit out there , better to take in 2012 than risk
it beyond ... the decline from 4.95 has not been on strong volumes , absent any news , i would
have to say that HEK is experiencing tax selling .... also consider that at least until the
next 10Q , there probably won't be much upward price pressure , so tax sellers can feel comfortable
that the price will be about the same in 30 days and tax selling will probably continue right up to
12/28 ..
They are trying like hell...let's hope they lose, and let's hope these politicians can put partisan bickering aside and get a deal done...sure would help to calm nerves.
Sentiment: Strong Buy
700,000 shares controlled by options sold at 4. Someone is DETERMINED to bleed off all the value of these options.
G I think its the optex more than anything
Chim only if the deal cuts spending otherwise we are in the same boat and the market drops anyway

Mandi-if they are not indicating their wants/needs verbally at this stage they should be doing so non-verbally by pointing, taking you to things, bringing things to you, responding to their name or commands ("bring mama your shoe") etc. If this is not the case with her I'd suggest contacting EI now rather than waiting. It doesnt mean anything is "wrong" however there is some form of delay and the process once you contact them is lengthy. I am speaking from experience being in the middle of it now. I contacted them at 15mo, was sent a questionaire and emailed it back to them rather than mailing it to expedite the process. A week later they called to set up a meeting with an assessment case worker (social worker) for a month later (soonest opening they had). She came to my house last Thursday, asked me 2hrs worth of questions about everything you can imagine and watched me demonstrate with him my concerns. She took her info back to her team, they meet this week adn yesterday she called me and said they want to schedule a full eval (her, another team member and an OT specialist), soonest they can do it is December 19th. He will be 2 days shy of 18 months, and nearly 3 months later without ever having started any kind of therapy etc. If you're concerned in any way I'd call now and not wait. She may be one of those children that start talking after you hang up the phone, but in case there is a delay that needs some therapy its better to start sooner than later.

Place is great - food is awesome and view out of this world !
Always a Hit
Half Moon's location is second to none. Great views of the Hudson, and in the distance, Manhattan. The drinks are nice, nice wine list. Server was great, and knew exactly ingredients for our gluten-sensitive friend.
Half Moon Dobbs Ferry
Half Moon in Dobbs Ferry is like a mini vacation. We sat outside overlooking the gorgeous Hudson and enjoyed a delicious lunch. The staff never rushed us and we're so pleasant. My friend travels from Long Usland to lunch with me because the location is so special. We love Half Moon
Very Upset
My experience here was very upsetting with the prices we paid. We were celebrating a special occasion my cousin got engaged and we purchased bottomless mimosas for 20$ per person they gave us the bill without even us asking for it and cut us off at 4 mimosas as well. We asked to speak to the manager but he/she was taking forever to get to us so we left.

Very dramatic view
I had lunch here with a classmate from high school, class of '72. She and I are known for our long lunches and this was no exception. Lunch began at 12:30 and ended at 4:45. Edgar and his associates were very gracious and attentive. We both had the lobster roll w/ white wine. They also tucked us away in a quiet corner with window. Just another great lunch.
Disappointing Food - Outstanding View
Half Moon is a place to dine for outstanding Hudson River views and beautiful ambiance. However, the supreme views are unfortunately overshadowed by food which is not only disappointing - but expensive. Not all dishes were bad. The bread was magnificent, the lobster with avocado appetizer was outstanding as was the macaroni and cheese. It was pretty much downhill from there. The hamburgers were just average as was the sole which was bland and tasteless - was it really sole we wondered? The chicken sandwich - also average. And then there was the dessert. It was a birthday celebration - so we ordered the Ice Cream Sandwich for the table as recommended by our waiter - which by the way was attentive - while those preparing on his behalf - were not. The ice cream was a beautiful presentation - the taste - not the highest quality. And there it goes. Will we come back? Perhaps yes, on a nice day, to enjoy the river. However, we will not be there for the food - that is for certain.
Second visit, would return again
We stopped in by accident 4 years ago and enjoyed the view and the layout of the inside. This time We made reservations for 12.30 pm on a Friday. We arrived and were first and only seated.. So it was quiet. By the time we left there was about 10 tables seated.. The food was good and bread was wonderful. Service was good and portions fair. Weather permitting out side seating is good.
lunch with old friends
My guests had been to HALF-MOON before, and asked to go back. We sat by the window and the view was matched by the food and the drinks.. They did,t want to leave
Dining Debacle
We were promptly seated at 7:30 and witnessed a beautiful sunset over the Hudson on Sunday, 4/17. Things went downhill from there. Our drink order was taken and served and then the waiter went AWOL. We finally found someone to take our food order but on item after item were told that it wasn't availble. That included the mini lobster rolls, the lobster mac and cheese and the lobster avocado salad. But, they had plenty of the 2-pound lobsters at $69 if we really wanted lobster. No way were they going to use those pricey babies for all the other lobster dishes. The four of us managed to scrape together an order of food that was "in stock". Then we waited. And we waited some more. And some more. At 8:45, we started asking about the food. We were told thatit would be served "any minute". Nine o'clock came and went. More inquiries, more promises, no food. Finally, at about 9:15 the orders came. Some hot, some luke warm, as though it had been waiting around. The mozzarella on the flatbread pizza was a cold, congealed mess. It was sent back. The substitute order arrived as everyone else was finishing. We received a perfunctory apology from the manager and were comped for the drinks. The restaurant was less tha half full when we arrived and nearly empty whe we left, so crowds were't the problem. We never found out what was. All and all, Half Moon was a mess.
Very nice, but a tad on the pricey side
We visited Half Moon for the second time, this one for a milestone birthday. The menu was excellent and all meals got rave reviews. We brought a cake with us and were charged a slicing fee ($3 per slice) which seemed a bit expensive, but I suppose it was cheaper than buying dessert. I rated ambiance a bit lower because there was music playing loudly in the background which was not in keeping with the mood of the restaurant. Perhaps it was playing primarily for the bar crowd, but I found it quite distracting. Service was OK - not great.
Come for the Sunset
As we sat talking the shade went up automatically so we could enjoy the beautiful sunset! There is also outside dining. The food is varied = small plates to regular entrees. One of us ordered a rare steak and it was delivered well done. They took it back and brought a beautiful rare steak. Service was okay but a little confusing - we started with one server and switched to another but then food was served by someone else who also took the check... Overall it was a nice evening with good friends, good food and great views.
Location, Location....
Unfortunately, we have to agree with many of the other reviews we looked at before taking our mom for her birthday. View fabulous. Just a gorgeous spot to sit and sit and sit. Got drinks after brunch and sat outside on the river for 2 hours visiting. But the food really is less than ordinary- how can eggs just have no taste? I also didn't like that I was offered a mimosa when I sat down without being told it did not come with the meal. The drink would have been $10- luckily another guest told me so I sent it back without drinking it. Go for a drink; eat elsewhere.
Sunday Brunch
This is one of our favorite places for Brunch. The food is good, the service is quick. We were a little disappointed that there were more choices. No opportunity to mix & match choices (eg.,waffles/pancakes with eggs; eggs with home fries & sausage/bacon). What was offered was delicious. We had the lobster/avocado salad.
My guests and I had an AMAZING time at Half Moon.
I wish I had discovered this restaurant a long time ago. The decor, ambiance and amazing views really makes this restaurant POP. Table of 8, we were surrounded by other guests and large parties. Noise level was on the high side but no one at our table was bothered by it. Food was excellent; the Lobster Roll was yummy..who ever came up with pineapple coleslaw is a genius! Cannot wait to return on a warmer day to enjoy the outdoor seating.
Good time,great location.

Great early mother's day brunch
Had a lovely brunch at Half Moon with the family, celebrating early US / late UK mother's day. The food was pretty good as usual - we love the baskets of pastries and breads that are brought out when you sit down (although our children tend to fill up on these!) and I'm a fan of the bottomless mimosas. My frittata was perhaps a little drier than I've had before, but overall it was good - they were happy to substitute eggs for the egg whites. Looking forward to our next brunch there.
Just a dinner for 2 on a Saturday
Everything was pretty good not spectacular but pretty good. The food was pretty good the drinks were pretty good. Nothing really blew me away other than the great service they were really on top of everything...would go back for brunch which i hear is awesome.

good food/dining experience as usual. will come back, as I always do.
Poor Service
I a a regular at Half Moon, especially at the bar. But more often than not I find the service in the dinning room very spotty and uneven. At one point I felt they forgot about us.
Remarkable, absolutely love this place
Remarkable, absolutely love this place
Extremely impressed. A definite repeat!
Great menu to choose from. The food was seasoned perfectly. Service was good and the ambiance terrific. Wishes we could have stayed later for the DJ.
Beautiful spot!
Love the location! The food is good but not special. I keep going back hoping the food will match the spectacular location, so far it doesn't. On this visit we did enjoy the salad special of spinach, frisée, and calamari, with a great spicy dressing. The mussels, lobster roll and baked macaroni were the other dishes which got thumbs up. Cocktails were good and service was attentive. Overall we usually enjoy this spot but always wish for a more creative menu.
Outstanding Restaurant
Half Moon is wonderful! Great food, beautiful environment including breath taking views of the Hudson River. Service is always outstanding and Miriam (not sure I have the spelling right), our server, was especially sweet, kind and accommodating! I have never been disappointed at Half Moon! Thank you!

Half Moon (Gem) on the Hudson
My party of 5 and I had a wonderful time. The wait staff was very professional and accommodating. I have been here a couple of times before and each time, I have thoroughly enjoyed my dining experience. The food, mood, and scenic views of the Hudson are exceptional. Looking forward to returning when the weather if warmer to enjoy dining on the Patio. Thank you Half Moon..
Lunch in the River
We came to Half Moon for Restaurant Week. Sitting by the window, was a highlight. The service was great as was the cheeseburger, perfectly cooked rare. The one disappointment was the flourless chocolate cake. It was too heavy and not what a molten flourless chocolate cake should be.

The service was excellent-friendly and accomodating. The food was excellent as well. We were celebrating a birthday and it was very special.
Great lunch
It was perfect . The service was lovely. The food can be more delicious
Pleasant evening
We returned to Half Moon for Restaurant Week because we had been very impressed when we dined here on New Year's Eve. The appetizers were very good, although not as good as we had remembered them, and our entrees were very tasty, but VERY rich. Too much butter on the salmon and vegetables. Desserts were fine. Our server was relatively inexperienced. She was very pleasant, but not as attentive as she might have been.
Nice occasionally
Nice atmosphere. Visited during HV restaurant week. Decent selection on menu. Overall nice for an occasional visit.
Loved it!!
Brought my girlfriend for our 3 year anniversary and the staff helped make our night absolutely perfect. They were right there when we needed help and they even brought out a complimentary "happy anniversary" dish right as we finished our meal. I would reccomend it to anybody! I loved it from the moment i walked in the door
just have the appetizers
So, we have said to each other many times, when we go out we should just have the appetizers. Well, we didn't and we wished we had. One or two out of five enjoyed their entree. The place is beautiful, and the service outstanding at the table. Anyway, the Prime rib was tough, and the Lobster roll was just ok and served with a mountain of cold fries. Appetizers were great! I suppose this is a mixed review, I'd go there again but more for the atmosphere and a drink with perhaps a few appetizers, but I'd skip the dinner.
Our NEW favorite place!
Loved everything about his place! Great ambiance - good service - inventive menu. ..and right on the Hudson River. It was a terrific night and experience!! Highly recommend!
Loved brunch but lunch was disappointing!
We had brunch at Half Moon and it was fantastic! Food was delicious and service very good as well. Unfortunately, we returned for lunch and the food was not as fresh. While the appetizers were amazing, my salmon burger was very fishy and my companions didn't even finish their regular burgers (very unusual for them). We will definitely return for Sunday brunch but probably not for lunch during the week.
Delightful afternoon!
We tried this location about two years ago and swore not to return....HOWEVER, the restaurant is apparently under new management and was a great improvement!!! We enjoyed our brunch experience very much. The food was delicious and the service was very pleasant. Definitely back on our "go-to" list!!
Great Overall
The food was on point. The service was overall decent, although our waiter hardly checked us, failed to put in one appetizer, and made a mistake with one of the entrée orders. Overall very good experience.

Forget about the worries of home and work in this gorgeous condo in the quiet, exclusive Cayman Kai neighborhood at Rum Point. Located in the Retreat at Rum Point (only 23 units), immediately next door to Rum Point on the North Shore. Stay on the quiet side of Grand Cayman (about 21 miles from airport, a few more to Georgetown and 7 Mile Beach).
This is the perfect home for your family vacation or couples' retreat. With 2 bed+bath suites (plus a powder bath), completed with luxury finish out, high end furnishings, designer draperies, a fully equipped kitchen, vaulted ceilings (with fans) and a screened lanai, you will soon forget about home and work. We are also on the top floor so noise from another unit will not bother you.
And outside, the soft, white sand beach awaits! This beach is the only large, open water beach (not on the lagoon like other Caymain Kai/Rum Point properties) and is all sand (no rocky or ironshore entry). While ALL beaches on Cayman are public, ours is secluded and pristine with beach chairs for the exclusive use of the Retreat guests.
Enjoy stunning sunsets, morning beach walks, snorkel, scuba and swim right outside the condo. Beach chairs are provided at the pool and oceanside at the beach. Play some tennis or relax in the beautiful pool. Walk next door and enjoy fine evening dining at the Rum Point Restaurant or lunches and drinks at the Wreck Bar & Grill. Also next door, Red Sail Sports provides a complete offering of watersports activities and watertoy rentals -- diving, Stingray City trips, snorkeling, wave runners, sailing, etc.
Have a special request? Ask us! We'd love to help.
Grocery shopping services available.
Crib and highchair available.
Snorkeling gear provided.
Tennis gear provided.
Need something else? Just ask. We want you to be at home here (okay, better than at home!).
Sunsets provided at no additional charge.
Our property is inspected and approved by the Cayman Island's Government Department of Tourism.
We loved our stay at the Retreat. Hated to leave and can't wait to go back. My sister and her boyfriend joined us for part of the vacation, and the layout was perfect for four adults, not the least bit crowded. We could have had additional guests without getting in each other's way. We could easily have cooked our own meals in the well stocked kitchen, but felt too relaxed to bother. There were lots of "extras" like great dishes, knives, games, puzzles, and beach toys. I felt protective of our home away from home and hoped other tenants would treat it with love and respect so that we find it in the same condition when we return. Belle was a perfect hostess. We chatted with other guests and found everyone else was happy with the Retreat in general. It is quiet and beautiful, and not too far from the more glamorous parts of the island for those who want that. We were happiest staying close by. The snorkeling was good right off our beach and it is a terrific place for beginners since the water is shallow and the fish plentiful. We really enjoyed having the Run Point Restaurant, the Wreck lunch and beach bar, and Red Sails dive shop right next door. It was wonderful to stroll over for a midday drink and a snack, and we liked it that everything closed down and got quiet early every night. We can't wait for our next visit.
This was the best vacation we have ever been on. My husband and I took our 8 year old son over spring break to the beautiful retreat and it was the most amazing vacation, adventure and experience we have ever had as a family. The pictures do not do this place justice. The water is beautiful, the snorkeling (right off the beach) is the best we have ever done, the food is delicious and the people are so generous and kind. We rented a car for the week which was nice to have for exploring if you wanted to leave the retreat. It wasn't necessary to go anywhere but it was fun to have the option. There are not enough words available to explain how great this trip was. We went to sting ray city twice, had cocktails at Rum Point, rented a paddle board for the week, went to Spotts Beach to go swim with the sea turtles and relaxed on the beach. We are already booked for our next return trip to #33. Belle was awesome to work with and was always there for questions. We highly highly recommend The Retreat #33 for your vacation. It is a stunning and relaxing place. We have made new friends for life young and old and look forward to many more memories to come.
Traveled March 24 -April 1, 2016
The condo and its location really made this trip fantastic. The owner was organized and provided clear instructions and logistics for arrival, which was a wonderful way to start the vacation. It's obvious the owners takes pride in their property. It shows through the attention to detail in all the beach and water equipment, everything we needed to cook, and in the comfortable, quality furnishings. She also checked in with us after arriving to make sure we had everything we needed, which was a nice touch.
We couldn't have been happier with the condo or its location. We did venture over to 7-Mile Beach, and were so grateful to have chosen Rum Point. It's quiet, local, friendly, and has Red Sail Sports next door for easy access to boating trips and water toys. Stingray City was amazing - better on the weekend with less crowds. One of our favorite things about the condo was being able to hang out on the calm, sand beach (protected for a long way with breakers) and snorkel any time we wanted without crowds. A true get-away.
The condo is also located close to many other interesting places to visit -- The Mastic Trail, Botanical Park, and Kurt's Corner (local food) are all within 15 minutes. Driving on the left was much easier than expected, and a large grocery is only about 30 minutes away, making it easy to cook whenever we wanted. This was a special trip for us, and the condo exceeded all of our expectations. Thank you Belle for creating such a wonderful home away from home.
We spent a week there and loved the condo and the surroundings! The condo was very clean and comfortable, and the owner is exceptionally responsible and responsive! We had the place mostly to ourselves which was great. We love the location away from the crowd. Swimming is better on the other side of the pier, but if it is not too windy, you can snorkel and see nice things right outside the condo! We rented higher end snorkel gear next door at the dive shop. You have to haggle but they ultimately gave us a great price for the week, and we did a lot of snorkeling and wanted the life vests etc.. They also have snorkeling flags, which we did not get but would likely if we went again. We took the kayaks to starfish beach -- that was a lot of fun, but be careful as coming back is much harder than going! The best part of the retreat is sitting out near the point and just enjoying the view and excellent breeze. We vrbo all the time and we would rent this unit again! You have to have a car and try not to arrive on Sunday. Driving on the other side of the road is not too bad - you have to spend a bit of time practicing in your head and you have to know the traffic circle regulations. :-)
My wife, two kids, and I spent 8 wonderful days at the Retreat at Rum Point in Grand Cayman. We had a great time. The condo had all the amenities we needed, including 2 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, full kitchen, large living room, fast Wi-Fi, washer, and dryer. The Retreat at Rum Point is located next to the beautiful Rum Point Beach, which has a good restaurant and bar. There is also Red Sail Sports, where you can reserve several different boat tours (including Stingray City) and rent watersport equipment. The Retreat at Rum Point also has a nice beach right in the back, which includes beach chairs for guests. You can also view the beach from the condo's lanai. The resort is near Starfish Point and the Yacht Club. Starfish Point is a beach with many starfish near the shore. At the Yacht Club we took a boat tour at night that went to one of the world's most spectacular bioluminescent bays. I would highly recommend renting a car to explore the island. Grand Cayman has many great beaches, several of which have good/great snorkeling right from the shore (e.g. Smith Cove). The property owner, Belle, was extremely helpful and responsive. She provided great advice about the island and detailed directions for getting to the resort and grocery stores. I highly recommend going to Grand Cayman and staying at the Retreat at Rum Point.
My wife and I wanted a place to get away from it all. We like to travel off-season to avoid the crowd and relax. Retreat@Rum Point #33 was the perfect solution. The condo was spotlessly clean, kitchen was fully equipped (down to the coffee grinder), and the rooms were very nicely appointed. Easy access to Sting Ray City, Starfish Point, diving/snorkeling/fishing and the restaurant/bar at Rum Point can't be beat. We will return to #33!
In the quiet, exclusive Cayman Kai neighborhood at Rum Point. The Retreat at Rum Point is a North Shore condo complex that boasts 23 units.
