It's one of trading's most fundamental questions: When has the market struck a bottom? Few potential trades generate so much fear while eliciting such gripping desire. The idea of trying to buy when the market has retraced heavily paralyzes some, while the greed of the potential profits causes others to buy irrationally. Combining simple rules with basic risk management can prevent both of these scenarios.
Traders' styles can affect how they view bottoms in the markets. Trend traders, by definition, avoid identifying tops or bottoms. Their focus is to take the "meat out of the middle," not get in or out at a price extreme. However, while these traders may not technically pick a bottom, when they liquidate, they are responding to an indication that the market has turned. In terms of oscillator and indicator traders, they often refer to the market action as "oversold," but this condition does not necessarily constitute a bottom. With regard to chartists, their analysis is often driven by the patterns they choose, whether traditional triangles and head-and-shoulders formations or more sophisticated ones, such as Gann.
There are many ways to be a bad trader, and one is to dive into the market with abandon following a stiff decline, expecting to catch the absolute low before price surges upward. This misstep begs the question: What exactly is a bottom?
Tale of the tape
The difficulty of picking a bottom stems from not knowing what actually is taking place in the market. Let's be clear: Picking a low is not the same as picking a bottom. A low is simply the lowest price achieved by a market during a certain time period, while a bottom is a low or a series of lows that indicate investor mentality has shifted from selling to buying.
Your trading method determines how you look at bottoming formations. To a day-trader using Level II and tape analysis, a bottom may mean that offers have dried up and a sizable bid is supporting the market. In this case, buying power will overcome selling power, and a bottom will be formed. If we accept that the tape prints before the chart, then we have to believe all bottoms follow this condition. In other words, a bottom begins when demand overtakes supply.
Day-traders use this type of set-up to initiate trades because they know they have an exit. A day-trader will attempt to enter the market on the long side at a low price when he knows that he has someone to lean on. In this example, when a day-trader sees a large bid or a series of bids greater than the selling pressure, he will attempt to go long under the assumption that a bottom may be forming. With his eye on the bidders at all times, the day-trader will stay long as long as the reason for his being long, the large bid, remains in place.
Assume that a low price has been reached and that a significant amount of bids have come into the market to stop its decline. Because the majority of traders use patterns and indicators to trade, we can review some techniques that help identify a bottom. By looking at two different styles of trade, we can see how each user determines when a bottom has taken place and how to trade it. These types of styles are the oscillator and pattern recognition.
Ups and downs
Oscillators are used to identify overbought and oversold markets. An overbought market is one that has risen significantly and has exhausted the buying interest of investors. An oversold market is one that has fallen significantly and has scared off sellers. Moving averages can confirm a change in trend, but an oscillator is used to identify a bottom or top as it is forming.
The two most popular oscillators are the relative strength index (RSI) and stochastics. Both of these oscillators move on a scale set from 0 to 100. Conventional wisdom says that an RSI reading over 70 is overbought and a reading under 30 is oversold. Stochastics traders use readings of 80 to indicate overbought conditions and 20 to indicate oversold conditions. Time is an important input into both RSI and stochastics. A popular time period for both is 14 days, which serves as the default period for both indicators in standard charting packages.
Don't confuse oversold with a bottom, however. It cannot be determined if a market with an RSI reading of 30 is making a bottom using that information alone. Indeed, you cannot even rationally state that the market is even close to making a bottom. For each market and time frame, not only is research necessary, but so is confirmation.
Oscillators remain popular because they are easy to use, particularly in hindsight. They are coincidental indicators. If the RSI reaches 25, for example, and the market makes a bottom, then traders will say the low reading on the RSI oscillator triggered the turnaround in the market because it was oversold. While not exactly good for predicting a bottom, the RSI can be used to determine when or where a market has reached an oversold status and could begin to rise.
The best use of the RSI is implied by its calculation. The RSI is a percentage of an index created by a series of closes. As such, it's not going to identify an absolute low because it is created using closes. For bottoms, convergence is the best technique for analyzing the RSI. In other words, look at a series of RSI readings relative to a chart formation. If the market is making lower lows, but the RSI makes a higher low, then this is a sign of a bottom. It means that despite moving lower intraday, the market has managed to close better relative to the previous closes (see "Seeing convergence," below).
A similar situation exists with stochastics. This overbought/oversold oscillator is created by comparing the relationship between the high and the close and the low and the close. If the market is making lower lows and closing near the low, then the oscillator will continue to fall. Over a series of days, if the market continues to fall, but the closes are better than 50% of the day's range or near the high of the day, then a convergence is forming that indicates that a bottom could be in the making.
The ultimate confirmation of oscillators, however, comes from the price action itself. With help from the charts, you can see that a bottom is forming because of the combination of the price action and the oscillator.
Price patterns
Chart patterns are based on raw price data and, as such, often can provide the first clues to a market bottom. Among chart patterns, closing price reversal patterns are some of the most useful.
Studying price patterns, you find that a bottom can form at just about any level on the scale. Although it is suggested to wait for 30 on the RSI and 20 on stochastics before buying, in reality the level of the oscillator has little to do with how weak a market is or how much it will rally. For uniformity in bottoming signals, a much better choice is the closing price reversal bottom and the candlestick hammer.
The closing price reversal pattern -- or as it was referred to by legendary trader W.D. Gann, "the signal bottom" -- is a universal pattern. It exists in all markets. At some point, all markets will at one time post a closing price reversal bottom. This is one of the best indications that buying pressure has outpaced selling and that a bottom is taking place.
A closing price reversal bottom is defined as follows: Following a prolonged move down in terms of both price and time, a market has a lower-low than the previous time period, a higher-close, a close above the time period's mid-point, and a close above the opening. If this occurs, consider this a sign that the market has bottomed and that the trend is getting ready to turn up.
The signal bottom is one of the most powerful indicators of a major bottom formation. To understand its importance, we need to break the signal bottom down into its components.
A prolonged move in price is an important part of determining the significance of a signal bottom. This type of signal must occur following a strong break in terms of price. Studying previous down swing moves will aid in determining what is meant by a "prolonged move in price."
A prolonged move in time also is an important indication of an impending bottom. Time is most important in determining a change in trend. Once again, knowing something about the history of the duration of down swings in the market will aid immensely when using this signal. On a daily chart, for example, a typical prolonged move down in the stock market will be seven to 10 days.
A lower-low and a higher-close occur quite often even amid a sharp break. This is why the trader should use prolonged move in price and time as a filter. Without this condition and a follow-through to the upside to confirm the formation, this pattern can trigger a false bottoming signal (see "The signal bottom," below).
Also, note where the formation is taking place. Often, closing price reversals take place near previous bottoms or inside retracement zones. When studying this signal, a trader is likely to determine that the best trading signal comes following a 50% retracement above a previous main bottom.
Traders should note that this type of formation does not mean anything until the pattern is confirmed. The confirmation takes place when the high of the reversal day is penetrated. Without the confirmation, the signal may fail. Sometimes, the reversal is confirmed the day after the formation; other times, it may not be confirmed until after a base has been built.
Gann's signal bottom formation, or closing price reversal, is similar to the hammer candlestick pattern (candle with a small real body that forms at the upper end of the bar with a lower wick at least twice the size of the body). Like the closing price reversal, the success of the pattern is determined by the amount of price and time of the previous break, the location of the reversal bottom and the follow-through to the upside (see "Two together," below).
Often, traders just take the candlestick patterns as they appear without adding the reversals. Success may be improved if you take the signal inside of a retracement zone and especially after a prolonged move down in terms of price and time.
Better together
Criticism of RSI and stochastics does not mean these tools should be discarded. When used in conjunction with the signal bottom and hammer patterns, they may prove to be valuable, depending on your market, style and time frame. Traders should look for convergence patterns in the oscillators in combination with closing price reversals and hammer patterns. This is especially true when using stochastics because it's based on the same components of the charting and candlestick bars.
Bottom picking should not be feared if you understand how bottoms are formed and how to use oscillator and chart patterns to determine the validity of a bottom. There are other techniques, such as swing breakouts and moving averages, but these methods tend to lag behind actual market movement and often are confirmed several days and much price movement away from the low price.
The closing price reversal bottom pattern tends to get the trader in a position within one day of the actual low. Some may consider this too aggressive, but when coupled with risk management rules and proper exit strategies, it can be a successful method of trading.

WASHINGTON (AP) - President Barack Obama's re-election has guaranteed the survival of his health care law.
Now the administration is in a sprint to the finish line to put it into place. In just 11 months, millions of uninsured people can start signing up for coverage.
But there are hurdles in the way.
Republican governors will have to decide whether they can join the team and help carry out what they've dismissed as "Obamacare."
And the administration could stumble under the sheer strain of implementing the complex legislation, or get tripped up in budget talks with Congress.
Eventually, 30 million uninsured people are expected to gain coverage.

And the campaign insiders are back packet Alice Fox's contributor and former poster for president Jimmy Carter.
Who joins us now pat -- -- about Iran.
And your tank -- my take on it is it is is is consistent with my colleagues but I won't take it to system for.
In 2010.
At the end of the election on the last week and we -- international crisis sort of -- the cartridge -- That resulted in 9% of the voters saying that they.
Vote only on that most important mid term election ever -- -- fourteen points more democratic.
The president's national security advisor -- -- leaker in chief and we have this big -- out of -- true.
He's a political operative he has no experience in national security.
Where he does is in politics of the -- the Republicans.
I would be so I would -- warning the ground of saying.
You know they do you know taking advantage of issues in the presidential election that takes place.
I would -- warning about it some kind of October surprise if I were Republicans.
Because I think in fact the question now when ninety days that's important question Allen and you you guys have experience for decades -- -- -- the October surprise is that the.
-- with October surprises.
They are mostly unpredictable mostly don't happen.
The only one that I can remember was in 1962.
During the Cuban missile crisis where there was a determinative.
But -- -- suggests at the end of an election a close election.
Where everything's being politicized.
-- all bets are off what it it can happen.
Well I don't want to speculate yet they are but it's I would say part of the Republicans -- -- that I wouldn't be going along.
Because I think this is a very political -- really what you can say is the Jewish vote which is critical in Nevada Ohio and Florida.
4% of the overall electorate key constituencies in -- state and -- let me make the difference and -- Pennsylvania that is right.
Those of the main some of the -- -- states.
Another part of the campaign.
Now is the negativity -- -- criticizing how they're -- throwing -- at each other but there's some new ads here's one from President Obama stat book.
We work hard for what we hear and only ask -- -- -- hard work pays off.
I believe.
-- the way you grow the economy this from the middle -- While John looks like morning in America look at that and they have shifted the Obama campaign -- the second ad and a week.
That's a more positive ad featuring the president that rating and and talking about what he believes and in a positive way not trashing Romney because all the polls agree on one thing Eric.
The two campaigns have been trashing each other like we've never seen at this stage of the campaign than negatives of the president and governor Romney are way high.
And -- -- then it's gonna hurt either one problem.
The rest of the way and it will -- the one million.
I'm pat knew and I have been talking about the need for both candidates to articulate a vision and a path forward and when I think we're seeing with this man.
Is President Obama beginning to do just that that the one thing I would point out again however is that the last two months.
It is always the president's campaign -- takes the initiative.
Whether for good or bad Romney's campaign the Republicans played of their -- and.
And -- -- stop letting that happen there that are someday take -- is the image thing that happens in the campaign including what we just talked about the Israeli thing.
Romney announced three weeks ago is going to Israel and the Obama campaign put all these things together -- -- For Friday and for this weekend all -- it.
-- -- -- -- -- -- -- There -- good -- it and it's hugely significant politically what pat was saying.
On the immigration announcement.
On Israel -- parliament gay marriage -- Obama campaign is controlling the debate.
And the dialogue Romney is on his back foot and bottom line while the economy is very weak and those numbers confirm that the initiative of the campaign.
Is still with that I -- stumble they stumbled even when the Supreme Court ruled.
It took them six days to get their -- -- the Romney camp bonuses and also as you're saying as long as the White House is incumbent.
Is in control of the message why that's -- I'm standing.
This is why he is still standing they are running an aggressive campaign.
Romney is always on the defensive and that matters right we have a Romney -- take a look at that now.
President Obama's first term American.
Billion dollar stimulus to create three to four million jobs we'll Americans waited for help.
-- were still in foreign countries.
Must and they RNC envoy assays are when they're on the -- -- An Indian winner was seen there in really example of what the Romney campaign -- which is it's all negative.
That message resonates people agree with that but what their question is what are you gonna do differently how are you gonna leave this country what's your vision.
Bottom line we haven't heard from -- historic Doug you've brought it to someone inside the Romney campaign -- -- act America I had a discussion can.
Excuse me candid discussion.
Whether Romney farmers who said he spoke to the leadership and said gentlemen you have to offer a message and a platform.
And he was told we're gonna stick to negative we're not going positive and bottom line if they don't go browser I think patent on you -- great.
They we'll have a much like a good chance it would make me win this campaign that you can't economy collapse.
But right now being a running shot eight.
On the Smart I'm sorry my decision on the word -- -- -- and on the Smart.
Strike should -- campaign they're running tactics and run people who Romney.
The -- us something else because they're being out -- -- and your advice to him would be.
But -- exactly would -- but dog in and John said he should be out there doing the positive he should be offering a message John.
My sort I totally agree I I've said this before on here the first of these two men the president and governor Romney.
Who switches totally and goes all positive and spells out.
Here's what the next four years will be like if -- president and how we're gonna turn the Conrad the first one does that.
We'll win the election.
You can challenge and -- -- numbers as bad as they are for governor Romney in terms of his.
Favorable unfavorable he's got to do it quickly it's an urgent -- -- -- we won't get through but Scott Brown has that brought -- also would be the -- album Romney's people.
Which was so good this week on -- on the -- -- the economic thing.
Not much is only it's not doing all right there's the at a time it every week millions of dollars in campaign advice and you three guys you yet about what anybody for free and that's -- I totally here on I only hear about Uga -- which paper or -- -- I'm.
John -- a packet outlet you can make -- and of course Doug -- thank thank you -- you can see more the campaign insiders you guys do it every Monday 10:30 AM.
For half an hour and you could daylight between them and send messages to them on foxnews.com.
And they will be back here as they are every Sunday.
Next Sunday with a great advice and -- on Twitter to FNC insiders Twitter at infancy insiders and -- right --

Didn't the son send the father away?
Ricky Hatton takes on Manny Pacquiao very soon, but the subject I want to talk about is that Hatton's trainer, Floyd Mayweather Snr, has said that he'll happily stay in Hatton's corner if he was to fight Floyd Mayweather Jnr, his own son!

(")_(") This is Bunny. Copy and paste bunny into your signature to help him gain world domination.
Yeah, and that might be why he's said he'll show up against him.
Tom Jones singing "God save the Queen" is pretty bloody weird though.
Hatton's getting mullahed here, unable to spot repeated right hooks from Pacquiao. I can't see him coming back from two knock-downs in the first round.
All over, as Pacquiao destroys Hatton in the second, but he looks in serious trouble here. Hopefully he'll be ok, but his career may be over.
Maybe that's why son sent father away.

"Hating America is something best left to Mobius. He is an expert Yank hater.
He also hates Texans and Australians, he does diversify." ~ Braindead
I am totally unsurprised. Hatton is an average fighter, at best.
Jesus rides beside me,
He never buys... any smokes.
The Replacements
I agree. He's a slugger, with very little class. Got what was coming to him too.
Pacquiao v. Cotto tomorrow. Pacquiao is the clear favorite. Hopefully after this tuneup we can get Mayweather v. Pacquiao.

that would an interesting contest. i'd expect mayweather to triumph though; he's in a class of his own.

"The most obvious predicition about the future is that it will be mostly like the past" - Alain de Botton
More than likely, Mayweather beat up on Marquez pretty bad. While Pacquaio narrowly beat Marquez both times they fought.

(WLWT) A Cincinnati, Ohio area man has paid off a decades-old debt to Kmart to ease his nagging conscience.
The man sent an anonymous, handwritten letter a few weeks ago to the retailer's president, Rob Boire, explaining that he'd placed some clothing on layaway about 30 years ago at a Sharonville store.
The man said he'd told the woman at the layaway counter that he'd pay for the items at the front of the store, and she handed over the clothes.
"I walked out the door without paying for my clothes," the man wrote, underlining the sentence. "I don't know what came over me 'God's truth.' I have never stolen before in my life."
The man said he eventually forgot about the theft, but he had recently found religion and had prayed for forgiveness for anything he'd done wrong in the past.
"God brought back to my mind what I had done by stealing from your store," the man wrote. "I truly want to say I am deeply sorry and ask Kmart CEOs to forgive me."
The man said he was now 68 years old and wanted to right this wrong. "I do not want anything to keep me from heaven," he wrote.
Although he couldn't remember the exact amount the stolen clothes would have cost, the man guessed he should have paid between about $140 and $270.

"My peers are gone at school, and I do my school and work in the middle of the day," she said. "There's a lot more flexibility in how I can do things."
She's been home-schooled all her life.
Grace Silverstein, daughter of David and Eve Silverstein, is the Mid-Continent University Teen of the Week. Each Monday, the Sun features a different MCU Teen of the Week selected from nominees that high school guidance counselors throughout western Kentucky and southern Illinois submit to the Sun. Mid-Continent University will provide each Teen of the Week with a $2,500 annual scholarship to its university, which is renewable for four years. In the spring, a Teen of the Year will be chosen from the weekly winners and will receive a full four-year scholarship to Mid-Continent University, currently valued at up to $55,000, or a cash reward of $2,500 paid through the Paducah Sun if the student selects another college to attend.
Silverstein works 12 to 20 hours a week at the local restaurant, and she has her balancing act down to an art. After she comes home from work she continues with course work and takes online night classes. The work ends when she's finished, or when she gets too tired to keep going. The latter usually wins.
Her resume quickly dispels the myth that home school students don't get as much socialization or extra-curricular opportunity as those in public or private schools. Silverstein has been a part of McCracken County Teen Court for the entirety of her high school career, even giving a speech at the 2010-2011 swearing in ceremony. She played recreational soccer, played piano for 12 years, finished a junior triathlon and competed in the home school National Science Bowl team.
One of her favorite activities is Generation Joshua. The political group for conservative young people ages 11 to 19 has given her an opportunity to make a political difference even before she can legally cast her first ballot later this year. The group has lobbied, campaigned and learned as much as they can about the political process. Silverstein served as the president for two years, the secretary for two years and now fulfills the role of media coordinator.
She carries a 4.0 grade point average, and she scored a 34 on the ACT. Both of those are formidable tools in her arsenal as she applies to Vanderbilt University or the University of Alabama to study mechanical engineering. Silverstein hopes to jump into the innovative field of artificial intelligence or transportation.
District Judge W.A. Kitchen commented on Silverstein's poise and maturity in his recommendation letter for the teen. She said she's been comfortable working adults for most of her life. The ability to speak clearly and maintain a professional correspondence with adults, especially through the college application process, has been very advantageous.
The impressive concoction made up of hard-work, persistence and time management has carried Silverstein throughout her primary and secondary educational career. She'll carry it with her to college and beyond, wherever that may be.
"I guess as far as a career, I want to be a mechanical engineer and work maybe at NASA," she said plainly.

Well not quite tumbling.
Actually, workers are painstakingly lowering the wall, brick by brick.
It is the wall built by Colorado Springs residents Holger and Sally Christiansen. He's an architect. She's in real estate. They live in the Historic Old North End Neighborhood.
They erected the elaborate structure around their compound on North Cascade Avenue, just north of Uintah Street and Colorado College.
They started in July 2007 using brick they shipped from Virginia. Only problem . . . they didn't get the necessary permits and permissions needed to build in the city, much less in the hyper-restrictive North End Historic District.
Not only does the neighborhood have a homeowners association, all work done on the outside of houses there must be approved by the Historic Preservation Board.
Despite being rejected by neighbors and the preservation board, the couple pushed ahead with their wall construction. The city finally got them to stop work on the wall, but not before they had encroached nearly two feet into the city alley and nearly completed the structure.
It stands well higher than the 6 feet maximum allowed without a variance and its decorative pineapple-shaped finials soar nearly 11 feet high. See them in photos I posted in a January blog entry.
Efforts to negotiate a settlement failed and ultimately the city sued to force compliance with city codes. In February, after a three-day trial, a judge found in the city's favor and ordered the wall into compliance within 90 days.
Here's a blog I wrote about the trial with links to previous blogs and stories.
Below is a photo of the next-door neighbor's fence, and its decorative finials, with the Christiansens' shrinking wall in the background.
The couple's decision to comply and shrink the wall does not necessarily end the saga.
They've asked permission to keep their finials. The request is pending city approval.
While they wait, work is progressing.
Besides deconstruction, the Christiansens have had to deal with other problems related to their wall. The prolonged dispute caused a lot of hard feelings and some have stooped to obscene graffiti to voice their opinion.
Some might find the next photo objectionable. It was taken by Gazette staffer Mike Eiler about two weeks ago.
It is a good example of the emotions stirred by the case.

McDonnell Announces Prisoner Re-Entry Council
Yesterday, Governor Bob McDonnell announced a new prisoner re-entry program designed to cut down on repeat offenders. Craig Carper reports.
Backed by a bipartisan group of legislators and Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli, Governor McDonnell issued Executive Order 11, establishing the Virginia Prisoner and Juvenile Offender Re-Entry Council and named one of his former Attorney General staff members, Banci Tewolde, to lead the group.
The Governor also signed one bill that would divert non-violent offenders from incarceration and another that would assist prisoners in working off court costs.
McDonnell said he believes offering stronger support early in the re-entry process will save money and reduce recidivism.
McDonnell Every year, 13,000 adults and 300 juveniles are released from corrections facilities in Virginia. That first twelve months is when a lot of that recidivism occurs so that's when a lot of work really needs to be done.
Governor McDonnell said the new program will not have a substantial cost to the commonwealth and will be funded primarily through re-allocating existing resources.

Seven Hills
Online Reservations
I absolutely love this restaurant - best pasta in San Francisco, hands down. Small restaurant with a romantic atmosphere- be sure to make a reservation because this place fills up quickly!
I'm not sure how to review 7 HIlls. It is quaint and charming, though pretty noisy (tables are quite close, restaurant is small). I enjoyed the food, the ravioli was exceptional, the pork chop was fine, as were the other pasta dishes we tried. Overall, I will probably try something different next time in SF. So many great options. And 7 Hills was good, but didn't knock my socks off.
Good food, attentive informative service, very pleasant atmosphere. I highly recommend Seven Hills and this is in a city of cuisine opportunities!
all of the staff from the person who answers the phone to the waiters were great.The food was very good. I only wish the duck was on the menu.The small appetizers werefun. I would like to visit this restaurant again.
This was our first time dining at 7 HIlls and we would definetly go back, the food was delicious and inspired, the service was very professional and ambiance is charming albeit can get rather noisy.
Excellent interesting innovative preparations Wonderful❗
We had a first class meal at Seven Hills. We were visiting SF from Sydney and had three great meals but this was the best. Alexis Solomou is a great host and his team were good fun and very helpful. Please don't miss this experience. You need to book.
Our 5th visit and Seven Hills keeps getting better and better. In a city with high standards this is the best Italian food to be found.
Seven Hills was a highlight of our visit. Food outstanding. Service first rate. High recommendation.
Excellent hospitality, food and service. Though the pasta definitely merits the rave reviews, the rest of the menu should share in the accolades. (The sweetbreads are terrific.) We cannot wait to return.
We had an enjoyable time at dinner. The two downsides were the smell of over-used, not-washed-enough dishrag that was apparent upon walking in and how close together the tables were (we felt crammed in). However, our service was excellent: good food and wine recommendations; the food was amazing: we quite liked the 1/2 portions, which allowed us to split many pasta courses; and the price was great.
This a cozy neiborhood trattoria. Food is not only delicious but creative. It is modern Italian with old world flavors.
we arrived a bit early{ I m old fashioned i see a meal as evening out rather than a necessity,} hoping to have a relaxed cocktail only to find a 4 seat bar full, with a couple eating at it {im an old bartender,, never like being a waiter and if you think a person is handsome with mayonnaise on her face or if u think the smell of striped bass goes with a chimney rock cab then things have changed } the nice host did send us across the street to a neet wine bar where I calmed down upon return I must say the menu was imaginative,, the meals well executed,, the service excellent ,,the place charming one of the best Italian meals i ve had in some time I would highly recommend it now that I know the drill
Food and wine selection are the best in this restaurant.
LOVED the food....oh-my-gosh good. Interesting texture, flavor, variety. The ceviches are wonderful, the empanadas are finger licking good. A touch of heat in the spices, but not overdone at all. Many tables for two are pretty much elbow to elbow with your neighbors. Makes for a high energy atmosphere, but not terribly romantic. Big restaurant so I'm sure there are better choices, we just didn't get one. Our waiter was great....he led us through the unfamiliar items of the menu and didn't miss with his recommendations. Definitely recommended if great tasting, interesting flavors are a focus.
A neat wine list, though not extensive (it's a small and cozy neighborhood place, so this is appropriate), drawing heavily from Italy. I loved the Lacrima di Morro d'Alba. Very good appetizers--loved the lipstick peppers stuffed with crab! Also the scallops and prosciutto. The agnolotti with prosciutto was great, and so was the mushroom risotto. The desserts were delicious (I had the ice cream, and my date had the peach dessert), and the peach bellini was very nice. Great job!
In a day and age of many restaurants basing their credo on what would appear to be "Predictable Mediocrity" I am always delighted to see that Seven Hills maintains consistent excellence. There is nothing predictable or mediocre about your dining experience. They truly have the very best front of the house staff I've ever experienced. This, coupled with a talented chef and fluid menu selections, make this restaurant a genuine rare gem.
a charming small restaurant with extremely knowlegable staff. The food was delicious and would not hesitate recommending.
If like food, you will like Seven Hills. I particularly like the bone marrow. From starters to desert.. delicious. I live close by and go a about every other month or so. A warm welcome is always offered and appreciated. The only down side... nobbody likes a server with an attitude. No reason for it.
Excellent!! Great food Not A quiet place, but the food was worth it!!
The food is exceptional, but what makes this restaurant truly special is the stellar customer service. The team is friendly, knowledgable, and elegant (yet unpretentious) in how they present the restaurant. I have had numerous meals at Seven Hills and they never disappoint. I love this restaurant!
Its so nice to find a great neighborhood restaurant that allows you to enjoy a great meal without all the pretense of other more popular spots. The food at Seven Hills is delicious, the Ravioli Uovo is to die for, and the wine list is diverse and affordable - how refreshing is that? Watching the cable car go by makes you feel like you were transported back in time - so nostalgic for the natives. They also don't rush you. Seems so simple, but these elements of a great dining experience are too far and few in between for a city being taken over by the young techie foodie wannabees and the restaurants who cater to them. To get a comparable meal these days, you need to make a resse 6 months in advance. Seven Hills is a gem.
I've been to Seven Hills more than a handful of times and it continues to thrill me with each visit. Alex and the team of servers always makes us feel at home and special. The food speaks for itself; I struggle to decide what to order because it's all spectacular. Each Seven Hills newbie I bring in leaves a super fan and can't wait to come back for more. I'm counting down to my next visit, that's for sure!
Very nice restaurant but small and tables are too close together.
A wonderful small place. The only negative is you want to eat everything.
Was fantastic! Went there for a special anniversary dinner and they went the extra mile to make it great! Everything was amazing, no complaints at all!
Excellent food, small portions. We decided to try a variety of the pastas, but several 1/2 portions were not quite enough.
The restaurant was charming, the food was excellent, the servers were attentive. Portions are a bit on the small side, but that was actually a welcome change after how most restaurants give you portions that could feed a small family.
New Italian restaurant that took over 1550 Hyde, and with impressive results. Seven Hills stands for the 7 peaks in SF (who knew?). The sweetbreads with mushrooms are noteworthy, as well as ALL the pastas. Order a bunch of half portions in order to enjoy the chef's mastery. The waiter was knowledgeable, professional, and recommended a fantastic bottle of malbec from Argentina that was perfect. It was my first time there, but certainly not my last!
Glad we made it to Seven Hills. We started with an appetizer of Octopus and it was tender and flavorful. San Daniele Prosciutto Salad with wild arugula, frisee, fried beets, pecorino cheese, hazelnuts, 20 year old balsamic Vinegar and Sicilian extra virgin olive oil was more than we could have hoped for as a different and good salad. Our meals consisted of spaghetti with sausage,caramelized onions, bell peppers and tomato sauce and home made red potato gnocchi with a red sauce. Bread with meal was good. Adding to a great evening was the trolley ride that we picked up right in front of the restaurant down to our hotel in the Fisherman Wharf area.
Great food, attentive service and lovely ambience - what's not to love?! Check out this little gem of a restaurant if you are a foodie; have a special occasion to celebrate; want to woo your partner; it is a rainy Tuesday evening; any reason, really... You won't regret it.
One of best restaurants in San Francisco. In Nob Hill neighborhood, charming ambiance. Great waiters/staff, experienced and friendly. pasta is homemade - I have never had better, even in Italy. Many interesting choices and half portions available so you can try multiple offerings. Dessert was amazing and great wine list with knowledgeable staff regarding wine characteristics. I would eat here every week if I could.
After reading some of the negative comments I was apprehensive of what we might encounter. I considered changing the reservation but I am glad we didn't. The food was excellent, service was attentive, and the ambience was appropriate. The place is small, but I never felt that it was uncomfortable....never felt that our conversation was public. The owner came over and asked how everything was. We had no issues with crowds or waiting. Definitely give it a try.
The food was excellent. I had read some of previously reviews and decided to try the turkey meatballs app. They were beyond my expectations. I also liked that I got to try to two pasta entrees since you can order two half orders. Everything we tried was excellent. Would highly recommend, but definitely need reservation. The place is not that big and all the tables were full even with a 5:30 reservation on Sunday night.
We had dinner here for the first time and was extremely pleased with the overall experience. The service was great and the food was delicious. I highly recommend the Ravioli Ouvo...save some bread to soak up the truffle oil after you eat the ravioli. SOOOOO delicious! I also liked that you could order half orders of the pasta dishes so you could try different ones and not feel overstuffed. I will definitely eat here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for some unique dishes with extraordinary flavors.
Mmm. I keep going back for the Mushroom Tortelli and Ravioli Uovo! We like to take friends and then share all the dishes we order, so we can enjoy the whole menu.
Its almost an injustice to try to write a review for this place, because I feel like no matter what I say, it will pale in comparison to the food. I live in NYC and work in finance, so needless to say, I get to eat at some of the best places on the companies dime and no expense is spared. I eat like a king and Seven Hills blew my mind.
This was our first time at this restaurant. We had friends in from Chicago and wanted to take them someplace with some city charm. The food was wonderful. Service was perfect.
Loved the people and the food. They made it a great evening with wonderful food and lots of fun. Other patrons were very nice and some were regulars ... when they can get in! Make reservations well in advance as it isn't large.
2nd visit here....service seemed more organized and food arrived in a more timely fashion. The food was most noticeably improved - clean, distinctive flavors, fresh pasta that still retained the ideal al dente quality and perfectly cooked (crispy outside, tender inside) octopus. Decent wine list, though some of the wine descriptions were a bit cheesy. Looking forward to next time. :-)
Been wanting to try this restaurant for some time, living in the neighborhood. Packed every time I've walked or driven by. A visiting friend gave me the perfect excuse to make a reservation, and I'm glad I did. The service, food and ambiance were all terrific, and I'll definitely be back, soon.
I thought all the dishes were really well done. The red wine by the glass they helped me pick was very good. I liked that they were smaller portions so that as 2 people we were able to try more things. Our waiter was very friendly and patient. It is a very cute place with a nice atmosphere.
Amazing dinner. Every dish was incredible. Wine list superb. A real gem.
The two Alex's are operating one of the finest small Italian restaurants in the City's history. A real dining treat. The service is superb and paced just right and food just outstanding. The only teeny imperfection was a slightly dry chocolate cake, maybe one day too old. Otherwise perfection, and especially the pasta dishes.
This is a wonderfully charming (but slightly over-priced--how much are you willing to pay for pasta?) eatery. This restaurant has a distinct culinary identity and knows how to execute their brand to the T. They serve delicious Italian cuisine and focus on fresh homemade pastas. They truly excel at pairing their carefully picked ingredients into a cohesive dish that exemplifies the natural flavors of the food. All the dishes are always carefully and artfully prepared and served. The atmosphere is wonderfully intimate, subdued, and comforting. The only true downside is the abysmal lack of available parking, but I guess you can't expect much in SF.
Best pasta I've had...period. Beet salad & panna cotta delicious! Will go back soon. Parking is tough. They should have valet.
Wonderful food but even with a reservation we had to wait 20 mins for our table. Really small area inside so you have to wait outside if your table is not ready. Food is totally worth it though!
What a delight to discover a new restaurant that satisfies in every way. The ambience has European charm with beautiful lighting. The space is a bit tight yet feels intimate. But the food is the star here. The pastas are delicious and half orders are available. We ended up having 3 courses each because of the tempting options. We we're comforted by the surroundings and attentive service. Every dish was prepared to loving perfection. Can't wait to return.
This was our first time visiting the restaurant and found it to be a very comfortable dinning experience. Our server Mindy was very attentive and anticipated our every need. We had the Burrata and Prosciutto crostini as our first plate and three different pasta dishes as our main course and found them all to be just superb. We definitely be back to experience some of their other options.
Excellent food and service. My only complaint is that the place is so small that it became uncomfortably crowded as it filled with people.

Thank you for all of your responses! My parents and I have come up with our vacation plans for our spring break trip and a summer trip. During the spring break trip we are planning on going to St. Louis, Vicksburg, and Shiloh. For our summer trip we are planning on visiting Chattanooga, Chickamauga, Kenesaw Mountain and the surrounding area. TimHoffman01: I took my avatar last November while visting Gettysburg over Thanksgiving Break. You must have a wonderful memory because it was taken at a site near the Confederate lines. I enjoy reading everyone's favorite battlefield(s) and how each one is special in thier own way. If only there was more time to get out and enjoy the battlefields... |

If it's not too late to put my two cents in, I've only been to two and both of those are around the Kansas City area...Lone Jack and Lexington. I liked Lexington the best of the two. I'm wanting to go to Springfield and see Wilsons Creek one of these days. I know, they are both small battles and I don't know if they really count. |

Hello, Swamp Shadow... In your trip to Kennesaw Mtn., two close-by side trips could be made: one would be to the area of New Hope Church [lots of plaques only] and the other to a little-visited but nicely kept battlefield called Pickett's Mill, where Patrick Cleburne taught Oliver Otis Howard yet another lesson in battlefield tactics and management. There's information at their new website http://www.pickettsmillpark.org Enjoy and have a safe, FUN trip! Art B. |

My three favorite fields are Gettysburg, Gettysburg and Gettysburg. Yes, I know the battlefield is not totally pristine, there are too many Union monuments and not enough Confederate, and I know commercialism runs rampant there, but something just keeps drawing me back. I've been to G-burg so often I've lost count. Years ago, I first went just to take in the overview. But each trip back offered a new discovery and more detail: The First Shot Marker, the Lost Avenue, Hancock's wounding site, the 11th PVI marker with its canine mascot, Sallie (where each July 1 somebody leaves her some Milk Bones), the mural on Coster Avenue. It just goes on and on. I appeciate a nearly pristine battlefield as much as the next guy — Shiloh was magnificent and Antietam is awesome — but the commercialism at G-burg doesn't really bother me much. Heck, there was commercialism there in 1863, right? It's just different now. And I think I remember reading somewhere that G-burg with all of its monuments offers the largest collection of outdoor statuary in the country. Might I suggest that the North Carolina monument on Confederate Avenue just might be one of the most compelling works of art on the battlefield? One of the neatest things I've done there happened a few years ago when I took Rod Gragg's book, 'Covered with Glory,' brought along my three CWI roomates, started out at the golf course on the west side of Willoughby Run, and read the chapter out loud defining the moment when the 26th NC collided with the 24th Michigan in Herbst Woods. We followed the regimental clash step by step as I read, and it left me drained and in tears by the time we were done. An incredibly moving experience. |

Just how much is blown away.
And as a and now the death toll is three people on the Israeli side -- number injured mainly that apartment building we were rat inside the Gaza Strip.
If there had been a number of militants kill -- that is operational began -- target killings.
And then -- a couple of civilians -- -- deaths hold there in Gaza to about fifteen people Hamas has said.
Israel quote opened -- gates of -- The Israeli defense forces say they are prepared to escalate -- so far we've seen tanks now heading towards the Gaza border so the question going forward -- is -- cooler heads -- -- funerals for those militants were today does.

We searched the web's ticket sites high and low, but no one has any tickets available for this event.
If you track this event, we can let you
know when tickets become available.
You will receive emails alerting you about price updates and ticket deals.
When you track performers and events on SeatGeek they'll be shared on your timeline.

Tickets for Music Festivals are sometimes mislabeled by the seller.
Some tickets are for a single day's entry, and some are for multiple days.
Please double-check your tickets before you buy.
SeatGeek's Deal Score is a rating that determines whether a ticket is a bargain or a ripoff. The higher the number, the better the deal. The worst options have the classification Awful Deal, with classifications proceeding all the way up to Amazing Deal (Deal Score of 88 or above). Amazing Deals are exceedingly rare--only 5% of events have one.
When buying tickets for any event on SeatGeek, focus on the tickets with the highest Deal Scores and you can be confident that you're getting a bargain.
For some events on SeatGeek, there are over 10,000 tickets available. It can be quite difficult to sort through all of those tickets and identify the best deals.
This is further complicated by the fact that, when buying tickets for live events, you cannot shop based on price alone. A courtside ticket for $50 is probably a better deal than a bleacher seat for $30, but this might not be apparent if you sorted by price.
Deal Score enables you to make apples-to-apples comparisons among tickets that are in different parts of an arena.
If considering going to one of several events, Deal Score, is also helpful for determining which event has the absolute best deal.

Welcome aboard buddy, have a nice week
Approaching eight eight years on GB nice ......Be my gas buddy from Boston
A BIG CONGRATS on 600 consecutive days! Awesome! Wow, another 100 days have passed again, already! : ) For some it seems pretty easy to come back each day! But for most GBs they don't seem to have the dedication or the persistence it takes to come back and post gas prices each day for other GBs! Or they just run out of gas! :( Hang onto your speed lines, it only takes one day to lose them! I'm sure you know! But even clicking on news articles links, which are the easiest points here on GasBuddy, when you can't or didn't post gas prices before midnight will save your consecutive days! : ) WARNING! Every day GBs lose their consecutive days for many reasons, many with big numbers, the #1 reason, "oops, I just forgot!" :( If you ever lose your consecutive days; that is NO FAULT of your own, please contact the mods! Keep posting each day to save your consecutive days! Keep going like a PRO Boston GasBuddy! Have a nice week! Thanks buddy!
Thanks for the support on the cash-credit subject.
Thanks for the heads-up on the Woburn Gulf station. I missed the cash/credit difference when I drove by there. Regards.
A BIG CONGRATS on reaching 2M and your nice new ride! Really awesome! You're one of only 1,819 of more than 400,000 GBs that have accumulated at least 2,000,000 points! Keep going another million or more! Most GBs will never make it to 1M, but you have made it to 2M! Many of the GBs ahead of you have already retired, only 1,212 GBs have made it to 2.25M! Don't give up now, like so many of the GBs that reached 1M and 2M then retired! Keep going like a Boston PRO GasBuddy! Have a nice week! Thanks buddy!
Happy New Year and a prosperous 2012 to you and your family! Thanks GasBuddy for being here each day! Keep going like a Boston PRO GasBuddy in 2012!

At 71,000 acres, Custer (30 miles south of Rapid City) is one of the nation's largest state parks, known for granite spires called Needles and the 1,500 head of bison that wander freely throughout the park. Seeing them shuffle through a campsite or along the 18-mile Wildlife Loop road never loses its thrill. Iron Mountain Road into the park from Keystone takes lots of switchbacks, offering absolutely stunning views. The 1922 State Game Lodge is one of four on-site resorts. (605) 255-4515

text: Drawing upon research and practice in a number of countries, the contributors to this volume describe advances in meeting the needs of children and young people with emotional and behavioural difficulties. Following the Salamanca agreement and other international treaties, sovereign states are pursuing, at different rates, a more inclusive educational agenda. There is concern for those pupils who are excluded and in danger of becoming increasingly marginalized in their societies as their engagement in education decreases. Foremost amongst these pupils are those with emotional and behavioural difficulties. The issues surrounding their inclusion in education, particularly mainstream education, are explored, along with the factors that contribute to successful interventions. Contributors from Spain, Norway, Australia, Canada, Finland and the United Kingdom describe ways of meeting their emotional and behavioural needs within education. The authors raise factors, which could contribute towards greater inclusive practice.

I can get you some R3D stills later when I'm at my Mac Pro.
Here is some stuff I shot that has no post sharpening at all.
These are smaller grabs so they will look a bit sharper. If you go to my homepage those are 4K Jpegs so you can see what they look like on your monitor (although they will scale to your monitor resolution). No sharpening on any of them.

Hundred major corporations would have had an -- dividend pay out.
Possible tax increase next year may be coming of course 200 plus companies opt out already paid or are going to pay the dividend this year.
So let's bring in Doug -- still a Democrat former advisor to President Clinton on -- this is a tax revolt on C this is hypocrisy.
This is rich CEOs Richard board members saying okay widow wanna pay the tax the rich tax next -- we're gonna pay it for ourselves this year dog.
And democracy I see it as attacks and open at all off by businessman.
Facing an on palatable and untenable fiscal condition in Washington where both parties and particularly the Democrats are failing to come up with reasonable tax reform.
You've got a smile on -- -- that you have us monitors as you know on right Jim statement that wasn't named in them cynical Jim Sinegal.
CE OO of -- a founder of Costco yeah.
He pays himself seven dollars a -- he borrows the money to do it is a huge Obama so.
Thought well now that's a different -- -- story is when you have somebody smile caught borrowing money.
That they don't have been there kitty -- -- pay a dividend to reduce tax.
That is -- manipulative -- which he favors by the way which he went to the Democrat convention has argued for -- I I can't defend.
He and his company for his actions but I can tell you Stuart.
This is a reason why our political system is letting down ordinary people because it does allow the wealthy -- -- take advantage of a system.
Because the elites are not solving our problem is this the dailies never solve problems you know that sometimes that -- and then evidence.
That what you're saying is that it's a back door argument for tax the rich and it's actually a back door argument.
For reducing taxes limiting deductions and having a rational tax reform policy in the context of entitlement reform that was voted on this plant.
Know -- tax rates.
Caught some deductions raise tax revenue that was his plan and it was also you -- yeah what are you doing here I'm with Bowles Simpson and Erskine Bowles was a Democrat chief of staff he did the deal.
With Newt Gingrich and Bill Clinton.
You can have good principles and be a Democrat or Republicans -- it what it.
-- -- After -- necessary if -- Democrats -- Democrat and I have sitting right that this at the same thing.
Remember Bill Clinton he raise tax rates and it set off a -- You don't agree -- that well I do agree with that but he also reformed welfare.
He was also willing.
To rein in modestly.
Entitlements and do things.
-- a comprehensive basis it worked and it paid huge dividends about thirty seconds yes always gonna get a fiscal cliff avoidance deal we might get some.
Form of the deal we're not gonna get a real deal.
I think the economy's going to be hurt and I think both sides.
And especially the president deserve blame but who don't get the blame -- Republicans clearly -- are gonna get the blame and there are hurting themselves with their -- -- warfare.
But we may go into a much slower economy I think we that unless the president may be a year down the road won't return if you call bad news for the president it's even worse news for the American people I -- that.
I don't not bad at all assembly Democrats have had hit is that a tagline to every interview -- there is that it may well I think about duct banks -- right here at.
