ALF: Consider Me Gone
In the 102nd and final episode of ALF, the titular alien is thrilled to learn that his fellow Melmaccians Skip and Rhonda are going to establish a new colony on another planet--and he's been invited to join them if he can come up with a security deposit. This means that ALF will have to leave the Tanners, a prospect he faces with both sadness and regret (mostly over not being able to raise money for that deposit). Alas, just as he's prepared to make his final farewells, ALF is captured by the Alien Task Force! ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Add Casualties of War to top of Queue
Casualties of War was based on a New Yorker article by Daniel Lang. This, in turn, was inspired by a true incident which illustrated the dehumanizing aspects of the Vietnam experience. Michael J. Fox plays Eriksson, a member of an American squadron stationed in the deepest jungles of Southeast Asia. Sean Penn co-stars as Meserve, the squadron sergeant, who vows revenge after his best friend is killed. He orders his men to invade a village and "requisition" a young Vietnamese girl (Thuy Thu Lee), who is repeatedly tied, gagged and gang-raped. The horrified Eriksson refuses to participate in these atrocities, and he does his best to console the girl and to attempt to free her. Before this can happen, however, Meserve orders another man to kill the girl. Once he returns to camp, Eriksson attempts to file a report on the tragedy and to bring Meserve and the others to justice, but he is stonewalled by the brass and threatened with death by his fellow soldiers. Eventually Meserve and his co-conspirators are jailed for their crimes, but Eriksson can never forget his "compliance" in the incident by failing to save the girl. The script is by well-known playwright David Rabe. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

ER: Ambush
This first episode of ER's fourth season originally aired live on September 25, 1997, with two separate telecasts for the East and West Coasts. A TV documentary crew follows Dr. Mark Greene (Anthony Edwards) during a "typical" shift in the emergency room of Chicago's County General Hospital. Still not completely recovered from a brutal beating, Greene is none too happy about being a "TV star," sentiments shared by the ER's attending physician Kerry Weaver (Laura Innes), who regards the camera crew as an invasion of everyone's privacy. As it turns out, the documentary makers get more than they bargained for as they record for posterity a gang fight, an out-of-control patient, and a heart attack. In the midst of all this confusion, Dr. Elizabeth Corday (Alex Kingston) arrives from England to witness American surgical procedures. The syndicated version of "Ambush" combines scenes from both the East and West Coast broadcasts, expunging a number of conspicuous continuity errors and an embarrassing moment in which a crucial prop is misplaced. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

I Come in Peace
I Come in Peace is a silly, derivative science fiction exploitation thriller which is a triumph of style and skillful direction, despite a plot that steals elements from numerous good films and mixes them with some appallingly bad acting. Jack Caine (Dolph Lundgren) is a not-by-the books police officer investigating the death of several people, including his partner, by a gang called the "White Boys." All the victims seemed to have died of drug overdoses, but Jack thinks that there is something more sinister afoot. His investigation reveals a plot by aliens who use the bodies to extract a chemical that is sold to addicts on their home planet. Originally entitled Dark Angel, I Come in Peace, while silly and confusing, has great production values and some excellent special effects. The main reason to see this film is because of the expert direction by former stunt-man Craig Baxley who manages to keep the action moving at a fast pace and tie up the loose ends of the threadbare story. The cinematography by Mark Irwin is outstanding and shows that imagination and a good visual sense can overcome a limited budget and a bad plot. ~ Linda Rasmussen, Rovi

James Belushi stars in this cop actioner about a loner narcotics officer who has to break in a new partner. The twist here is that the new partner is barely housebroken, but he's still sharp and keeps his nose close to the ground. Dooley (Belushi), who works on the San Diego narc squad, is an eccentric guy who has pizzas delivered to his car and likes a good steak. He is working on a stakeout of a local drug dealer when he barely escapes with his life as a helicopter blows up his car. When he asks the department for a new car, they give him a new partner instead --a police dog called Jerry Lee (Jerry Lee the Dog). Jerry's good at sniffing out the criminals but Dooley doesn't really hit it off with his new partner until the pooch saves his life. ~ Paul Brenner, Rovi

Law & Order: Refuge, Part 2
In this conclusion of a two-part story, the detectives and the lawyers vow to avenge the slaying of a woman whose son witnessed a Russian Mafia hit. Relentlessly digging up every possible lead, the forces of law and order endeavor to expose a widespread money-laundering scheme -- and to prevent any more killing of witnesses or destruction of evidence. As ADAs McCoy (Sam Waterston) and Carmichael (Angie Harmon) risk violating the civil liberties of witnesses by keeping them in protective custody, detective Curtis (Benjamin Bratt) is hit with a tragedy in his own household. Both parts one and two of "Refuge" were broadcast May 25, 1999, as the finale of Law & Order's ninth season -- and, incidentally, as the swan song of series regular Benjamin Bratt. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Lethal Weapon 2 re-teams Mel Gibson and Danny Glover as, respectively, "loose cannon" L.A. detective Martin Riggs and his partner, the cautious family man Roger Murtaugh. The villain this time is a South African diplomat (Joss Ackland) who doubles as a drug dealer. Though Riggs knows what's going on thanks to characterless character witness Joe Pesci, he can't touch the villain because of "diplomatic immunity." After perils too numerous to mention, Riggs and Murtaugh shoot it out with the heavies on the deck of a South African cargo ship. Lethal Weapon 2, of course, contains as one of its comic high-points a now famous suspense scene: Mel Gibson agonizingly attempting to extricate a terrified Danny Glover from a booby-trapped toilet seat. Director Richard Donner, Gibson, Glover, and Joe Pesci would be reunited three years later for Lethal Weapon 3 and in 1998 for Lethal Weapon 4. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Ricochet, a suspenseful, exciting police thriller that loses its way at the end, is the story of a good cop whose life is destroyed by an obsessed psychotic criminal whom he sent to prison years before. Nick (Denzel Washington) is a successful happily married police officer with a distinguished record. He is drugged, kidnapped and framed by Blake (John Lithgow) who has never forgiven him for arresting him years before. Nick must redeem himself both to the police force, his family and the public who had come to love and respect him. Denzel Washington is excellent in his role of the good man in an impossible situation. John Lithgow, while always interesting, is completely over-the-top as the psychotic criminal, and the film looses plausibility during an extended and highly improbable and unbelievable final chase sequence around the Watts Towers. Despite these flaws, Ricochet is an exiting suspense film with a fine performance by Washington and worth watching despite its disappointing conclusion. ~ Linda Rasmussen, Rovi

George Hickenlooper directs this psychological drama about an impoverished writer lost in a world of money, power, and male escorts. Though happily married with a young child, Byron Tiller (Andy Garcia) is struggling to make ends meet as a novelist. His last work, called "Hitler's Child," had an ignoble run in the bookstore bargain bins and his editor is not interested in his latest work about migrant workers. One day, he is approached by a dapper Brit named Luther Fox (Mick Jagger) who actually read Tiller's last opus. Luther explains that he runs an escort agency named Elysian Fields, which caters to rich women looking for intelligent companionship. Desperate for any kind of income source, Tiller takes the job while keeping the whole thing a secret from his loving wife (Julianna Margulies). He soon is rubbing elbows with the beautiful wife (Olivia Williams) of an aging Pulitzer Prize-winning writer. Gradually, Tiller finds himself immersed in this strange new world that he cannot quite understand, much less explain to his spouse. This film was screened at the 2001 Toronto Film Festival. ~ Jonathan Crow, Rovi

New York, NY Wednesday, April 4, 2012
The Council on Foreign Relations hosted a discussion on the state of the global economy focusing specifically on the Eurozone debt crisis. The event includes a panel of financial experts including former Citigroup chief economist and counselor to Treasury Secretary Geithner Lewis Alexander, as well as Vincent Reinhart the chief U.S. economist of Morgan Stanley.
Recently, the head of the International Monetary Fund called for the international community to give the IMF "more firepower" to bolster troubled economies around the world. In addition she said that the global economy is still trying to dig out from a deep recession and cutting government spending in U.S. and European nations could make things worse not better.
The Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) is an independent, nonpartisan membership organization, think tank, and publisher. CFR members, including Brian Williams, Fareed Zakaria, Angelina Jolie, Chuck Hagel, and Erin Burnett, explain why the Council on Foreign Relations is an indispensable resource in a complex world.

Catholics are now the new Protestants in American presidential politics -- Paul Ryan and Joe Biden symbolize a new era for Catholic politicians

Get used to it.
There are instead, two Catholics on the tickets, Joe Biden and Paul Ryan -- get used to that too.
Despite the fact that Biden is only the second Catholic to be part of an elected presidential team -- John F Kennedy was the other -- the future looks bright for Catholic presidents.
Consider in 2016 if Romney fails but Ryan acquits himself well, he will be the obvious frontrunner.
On the other side there will be several Catholics vying, Governor Andrew Cuomo of New York, Governor Martin O'Malley of Maryland are among the frontrunners, perhaps even Biden himself.
It looks like Catholic is the new Protestant.
Look at the US Supreme Court for a clear indication of how Catholics are replacing the once ever-present Protestants in the top echelons.
Once a Catholic on the Supreme Court was an anomaly, now there are six. Count'em - Kennedy, Scalia, Roberts, Thomas, Sotomayor, Alito.
Certainly the era of anti-Catholicism seems truly dead and buried but it was very real.
In 1960 Dr Norman Vincent Peale, the Billy Graham of his day, when explained the consequences for America if John F.Kennedy was elected, stated:
"Our American culture is at stake," said Peale.
"I don't say it won't survive, but it won't be what it was."
Political strategy is at the heart of the resurgence too. Most presidential elections are settled in the swing states, with Ohio and Pennsylvania chief among them.
Working class Catholics provide the margin of victory in those states and they have gone back and forth between the two parties since Ronald Reagan claimed them as his Reagan Democrats.
Obama handily wins the Catholic vote when it includes Hispanics, but without Hispanics they are the great swing vote.
Protestants on the other hand are all over the shop from Tea Party born-agains to liberal North Easterners.
If you want to win a focused, vital slice of the American electorate, then a Catholic on your ticket is good news as Biden proved in 2008.
Romney is hoping to repeat that magic this time around. It will be interesting to see if he succeeds.

Thanks, Briano and Seano, for reminding me of that great Janis Joplin classic, "Oh Lord, won't you buy me a Mercedes Benz? / My friends all drive Porsches, I must make amends. / Worked hard all my lifetime, no help from my friends, / So Lord, won't you buy me a Mercedes Benz?" Her caustic satire is even more on target now that the cult of prosperity threatens to take over the federal government itself.

@Eiriamach, The vast majority of abortions are not done for emergency medical reasons, and this is the crux to the whole point that I'm making. One can argue over the individual reason why women take this drastic decision. But wise counselling and alternative advice to the default pro-abortion position, should be provided upfront in respect of abortion centres and medical clinics.

Well, Sean, God has no physical, material body. Personhood in a completely spiritual being is a whole different can of beans and is rightly termed a mystery. I think that we know little more than that God condescends to become a "person" for us so that we persons can relate to God. We nature-bound beings, however, have limits, and one of them, I believe, is that one physical body hosts not more than one soul or spirit. Siamese twins have two bodies, more or less complete, though they are joined, and become separate persons. Only a pregnant women's body, according to Ryan and the other sponsors of the personhood legislation, hosts two persons. I find it interesting that psychiatrists categorize two persons in one body as a serious mental illness, schizophrenia. Anselm, Augustine, Thomas Aquinas, William of Ockham, and Duns Scotus are having a hearty laugh together over the "two persons" idea, when they're not weeping over the degeneration of theology into gross, oppressive po;litical silliness at the hands of today's official Catholic "theologians." ~~~~~ Gearoid4, it's true of any pregnancy, by medical definition, that "the continuance of the pregnancy would involve risk greater than if the pregnancy were terminated." This tautology tells you precisely NOTHING about the moral considerations that bear on a decision to terminate a pregnancy. I conclude again that you know NOTHING about why some women choose to terminate early pregnancies and therefore you are in NO POSITION to make any moral judgment about them.

To demonstrate my point, here are some enlightening statistics from 2010 regarding the numbers in the UK, who have chosen to abort for essentially non-medical reasons and really for convenience. In 2010, the vast majority (97.7% or 185,291) of abortions were undertaken under Category C(the pregnancy has not exceeded its
twenty-fourth week and that the
continuance of the pregnancy
would involve risk, greater than if
the pregnancy were terminated). One can interpret this in a very liberal way and it does leave open the scenario of abortion being performed for non-emergency situations, where counselling would be a far more healthy and moral option.
I am not judging any individual person but rather commenting on a general trend that cannot really be disputed, as it has replicated itself so many times in western societies.
As for your comments on Ryan's bill concerning two persons occupying a pregnant woman's body. It is an indisputable biological fact that two humans lives are intertwined here, i.e the pregnant woman and the baby growing inside her.

The ComColors model distinguishes between:
- motivation that comes from what we are doing, and
- motivation that comes from how we go about doing something.
These two types of motivation complement each other and allow us to understand why certain activities motivate us, and why we don't all approach these activities in the same way.
In a commercial setting, understanding these two types of motivation means that employees can be motivated on two levels, or, if necessary, only on one level, if there are time constraints. If managers are aware of what motivates their individual employees, their teams will be more energetic and will collaborate better.

Breaking all Illusions
Your living is determined not so much by what life brings to you as by the attitude you bring to life; not so much by what happens to you as by the way your mind looks at what happens.Out of suffering have emerged the strongest souls; the most massive characters are seared with scars.
Goals 2013:
Needs more cowbell!
I work as a nurse and was shocked that there are now more and more weight-loss surgeries performed on teenagers! This can't be the solution! We are a society of instant gratification. Gaining 20 pounds didn't happen overnight. Taking them off will not happen overnight and will require discipline and sweat and effort.
• get within 5#s of 130#s (and stay there, gotdammit!)
✓ 1st olympic distance duathlon - AG 2nd!!
• 1st Iceman Cometh mtn bike race - no MTB in '13
✓ Half Fanatic
✓ punch Type 1 in the junk
Kirstin, thank you so, so much What is the link to your Team Tiara page? I've heard of this organization, and I think it's a great idea. Girls need positive role models and Zoomie, you are a great one!
More Cowbell!
Jeff, you rock, too! You are my first Y-chromosome donor!
When you're on your deathbed, you won't be wishing that you'd spent more time at the office. But you will be wishing that you'd spent more time running. Because if you had, then you wouldn't be on your deathbed.
Just so we're clear -- I am a donor with y-chromosomes, not a donor of y-chromosomes!

Liberal blogger Ezra Klein's declares the Constitution is difficult to understand because it is over 100 years old, prompting demands for forgiveness from Helen Thomas.
GOP insists on reading Constitution so Democrats can find out what is in it.
After signaling support for Ground Zero Mosque Justin Beiber is admonished to just "shut up and lipsynch."
Add a commentYou didn't read the title wrong, get a load of this...
I don't want to get all technical and use big words that might be too hard to understand for any "progressives" reading this...but....
WHAT!I postulated in a previous post that the left has some sort of intelligence allergy, and I'm sorry to see Ezra Klein once again can't prove me wrong.
Our government, and the Democratic Party especially (by their own cavalier yet inadvertent admission during the ObamaCare debate), has grown so big it has its own gravitational pull, and it has strayed so far from the Constitution it could be its own planet.
The simple fact is the Constitution is perhaps the most plainly worded, easiest to understand governing document in the entire republic. Liberals like Klein want NEED it to be "confusing" so they can justify breaking the rules while telling you they're not. All they care about is power, and the Constitution's limits on power couldn't be clearer if it was the inside of Biden's head. For them it's not a document our government needs to live by, it's an impediment.
Klein might as well have said:
This is too confusing, here's a coloring book, leave the big kid stuff to us.
If it really is a mystery why the GOP thinks the Constitution needs to be read to people who vote 2000 page nation altering bills (that are apparently NOT difficult to understand) why don't we let the queen of the liberal hive (who, incidentally, was also created over 100 years ago) spell it out for him.
So, Ezra, this is not a gimmick, you idiot.
h/t to The Right Scoop (via iOwnTheWorld) for the first video.
Klein offers a rather feeble explanation of his intellectual constipation here. Go there for the explanation, stay for the comments by readers eviscerating it.
Add a commentSelfish Sanitation Department bosses from the snow-slammed outer boroughs ordered their drivers to snarl the blizzard cleanup to protest budget cuts -- a disastrous move that turned streets into a minefield for emergency-services vehicles, The Post has learned.
Miles of roads stretching from as north as Whitestone, Queens, to the south shore of Staten Island still remained treacherously unplowed last night because of the shameless job action, several sources and a city lawmaker said, which was over a raft of demotions, attrition and budget cuts.
"They sent a message to the rest of the city that these particular labor issues are more important," said City Councilman Dan Halloran (R-Queens), who was visited yesterday by a group of guilt-ridden sanitation workers who confessed the shameless plot.
Get the rest at The New York Post (via Drudge Report)
If this makes you shrug your shoulders then you must've missed the fact that people have died as a result of this...
A blizzard baby delivered inside the lobby of a snowbound Brooklyn building died after an emergency call of a woman in labor brought no help for nine excruciating hours.
Story here
Liberals love to scoff at the idea that we should privatize any service. This is exhibit A-Z on why we should consider it.
If these accusations are true then blood is on the hands of these workers? How are union thugs holding up taxpayers in a city that is steeped in debt better than having some greedy "evil" corporation handle it?
These bastards are going to have their jobs tomorrow. If corporate America was in charge of this they would've been unemployed a**holesicles by now.
Meanwhile, Mayor Bloomberg shrugs his shoulders, and I don't know if its because he doesn't know what to do, or that's his response to an aide asking him how he'll pin this one on the Tea Party.
Any chance of this guy running for president just got put on ice (oh yes...PUN INTENDED). If he can't get sanitation workers to prevent the deaths of innocent people by simply getting snow plowed, then you can imagine what will happen when a country like North Korea finally goes off the deep end.
I know he's all about having No Labels lately, so I'm not going to say he's a failure....
Or a moron...
Or a loser...
Or an idiot carrier of Biden DNA...
Or an incompetence whore after giving 8 million people a snow job....

Hawaii's new governor vows proving Obama was born there will be top priority right after he gets the state to build the world's first ever zoo for unicorns.
Add a commentI think there is a chance that there is actually something to this.
A study at University College London in the UK has found that conservatives' brains have larger amygdalas than the brains of liberals. Amygdalas are responsible for fear and other "primitive" emotions. At the same time, conservatives' brains were also found to have a smaller anterior cingulate -- the part of the brain responsible for courage and optimism.
If the study is confirmed, it could give us the first medical explanation for why conservatives tend to be more receptive to threats of terrorism, for example, than liberals. And it may help to explain why conservatives like to plan based on the worst-case scenario, while liberals tend towards rosier outlooks.
Get the rest at Raw Story (via Memeorandum)
I don't know anything about the science, I'm not a medical expert like the members of congress who drafted ObamaCare. The conclusions seem pretty feasible though when you consider "liberals tend towards rosier outlooks" is really just a polite way to say they're flexible enough to bury their heads in their asses.
It's how we get government healthcare when the government is running deficits that make the Grand Canyon look like a crack on the sidewalk.
It's why they think raising taxes on an economy that's so dead it makes the Clinton's marriage look alive is a good idea.
Liberals only see the downside to letting psychos have nukes if they vote Republican.
They think they can keep the climate of the ENTIRE world from going too high, and they can't even get plows going to remove the snow that, according to them, isn't even supposed to freakin' be there.
All of those things take A LOT of optimism. So I'll give these "experts" that much.
The only thing that I'm hung up on is that liberals have more courage. I don't know many liberal soldiers. They vote overwhelmingly conservative. I may be mistaken, but didn't the military establish the brig because soldiers protested that punishment by coersion to vote Democrat violated the 8th amendment?
In fact, liberals are always the ones that want to run from a fight. This alone puts the researchers findings on its head. How can conservatives be scaredy cats AND warmongers?
Then again, I guess it takes a lot of courage to tell people how to live and reduce their "carbon footprint" before diving into a pool at one of your mansions that suck up more energy in a month than the rest of us use in 2 years without heating it first.
To be fair to Al Gore, I'd wager he doesn't think his footprint is made of carbon so much as it's actually more like "optimistic hypocrisy."
Add a commentI did this post almost a year ago, I figured that since the world is freezing once again I would bring it back..
Each "snowflake" represents a headline in the news about how the country is getting colder than date night with the Clintons. Give them a rollover with your mouse and watch Al Gore try to eat his words. (use Firefox or Internet Explorer)
The headlines and links are from last year, I don't know if many (or any) still work. I could update them, but it's all just going to sound the same anyway...

Add a commentSmith has released the first trailer for his upcoming film, 'Red State,' a frightening look at religious extremism in America, based in part on anti-gay, anti-America Kansas pastor Fred Phelps.
Catch the original article at The Huffington Post
I love Kevin Smith's movies....but TIME OUT! TIME THE @#$#$% OUT!
First of all, this movie is going to FAIL, make no mistake about that. Mariah Carey's "Glitter" is going to look like "Avatar's" box office cousin compared to this movie because only a bunch of ignorant liberals who think there is a semblance of reality in it will spend two hours of their life watching it.
Meanwhile, the rest of the country will find watching eskimos who observe ice melt in the middle of January to be way more informative.
This is "loosely" based on Fred Phelps? The man is a Democrat, he has run for elected office as one many times throughout his life. He has even been a delegate at the Democratic National Convention. It was George W. Bush who signed Respect for America's Fallen Heroes Act passed with a vote from a GOP dominated Congress (that hailed from the states Smith is maligning) in 2006, based on the actions of Phelps's lunatic church.
So...what the hell is Kevin Smith thinking?
The fool is obviously TRYING to paint a portrait of Christian conservatism in America, and he's using a guy who would never vote for them as the backdrop for a work of fiction that's less believable than the comic book world he comes from.
Why doesn't he just make a movie about a guy who preaches the value of working hard, and fights tirelessly to preserve the right of people to keep what they worked to earn, and then say its "loosely" based on Barack Obama?
I've got a better idea, why doesn't he do a film that takes "a frightening look at religious extremism" that acts as an incubator for Sharia Law in America? Or would it be too difficult to get those guys to register Republican?
Here's the movie's trailer, and no I don't owe you a new keyboard because you didn't grab your barf bag before clicking play.

Add a commentIn light of Britain's Atheist Bus campaign this is probably a good time to mention I have always been a fan of the notion that I don't have enough faith to be atheist....
Apparently atheists don't have enough faith to be atheists either. There's probably no god?!? Does that mean there probably is a God?
This sets up an interesting conundrum for atheist crusaders. If they are "probably right" about there being no God then everything will go black and when we die existence for us will cease to be.
If they are "probably wrong" and there is a God then what do they think will happen to them when they have to face Him in the next life?
Basically, they're damned if they don't, and they be damned if anyone could get them to "do."
By the way, I probably think atheists are a little stupid.
I would also say that it's most certainly true with a high degree of probability that "probably" is code for "definitely." Its also true with definite degree of probability that "stupid" is also meant to mean "seriously @$&#ed."
They don't believe in God, so they see no need for religion, which prompts them to start an atheist cult so they can tell the world they're "probably" right...
Meanwhile, all people of faith are the logically bankrupt ones in this equation?
How does anyone get this way? Were these people tied to a chair and fed a constant diet of paint chips and helium?
Oh, I'm sorry, am I being ridiuclous?
Also, what is it that atheists think we are consumed by that makes them feel the need to tell us to "stop worrying?" Because of their belief that God is in control people of faith are truly some of the most worry free people there are.
When anyone assumes you're something that you're not they're reallly projecting their own issues on to you. Without exception the non-religious people in my life are among the most miserable people I personally know. They can't enjoy their life because they get hung up on every little thing that goes wrong in it.
They sweat the small stuff because they don't think there is anything to look forward to after this life. So they want to get it while the gettin' is good, and they're never satisfied. They don't know what people of faith know...nothing material in this life can provide permanent or lasting happiness better than faithfulness to God.
This Christmas will be spent as it should be, celebrating the birth of the Son of God, and I'll be doing so happily, because believing in God makes my life more enjoyable.
I'm not going to worry about people who spend their lives WORRIED about making sure people knew that life PROBABLY has no point.
Honestly atheists, I don't care what you want to believe...but please just go find a dark sound-proof closet that you can "play dead" in, and stop trying to be a bummer to people who want to play in the light.
On a side note, I thought this was a pretty brilliant retort from Neil Stevens over at Red State, I don't think they'd take it well...

Good place to stay if you look for accommodation in a reasonable price, the only issue might be its being located quite far away from the city centre (20 mins by bus). Otherwise, it is clean and all the basics are there.

I got there late at night and left in the morning so didn't have much time to check around. It's a camping. There were 3 other people in my bungalow. It was a bit dirty and nearly didnt have space in my room for my bag. There's breakfast but the jam pots were empty.. coffee tasted bad and the bread was almost like toasts.. the butter dirty.. Full of mosquitos too but I guess that's not their fault. The girl at the reception was nice thought and she waited for me but email first.

Chautauqua County residents are facing an uphill battle in the effort to get a resolution for the repeal of the SAFE Act passed. Though there enough votes gathered at this time to bring about a vote at the meeting of the full legislature on Wednesday, February 27th at 6:30 pm, there are still not enough votes to get it passed. We can no longer afford to stand by and allow Albany and those down state to continue to dictate without proper representation. We need to act NOW! There will be a rally on Saturday, February 23rd at the Frewsburg Fire Department Blue Building, Frewsburg, NY, from 12 noon to 4 pm. Guest speakers include; Assemblyman Andrew Goodell, Steven Alstadt of SCOPENY, representatives of Senator Cathy Young and Congressman Tom Reed.

Murray Circle
Online Reservations
We took our seats for lunch on a comfy couch with views out over the Fort Baker parade grounds, the Golden Gate bridge, San Francisco Bay and skyline and didn't move for 4 hours. We started with two glasses of Prosecco, warm olives, hummus and flatbread. The truffle fries were deadly and we couldn't finish them all. Ask for aioli with this. The ceviche lacked refinement as the fish was not the star of the plate. Roasted tomato bisque soup followed for my husband and it was fantastic, although his mussels were dry and the broth not properly adjusted. My "combo plate" had a cup of tomato soup, a small salad, chips and dip and olive oil poached salmon on veges. Sancerre and Rose by the glass. Desserts need work. Service was outstanding.
Particularly beautiful when sitting outside and gazing at the Golden Gate Bridge!
A very good brunch, though a few presentations were less sucessful than others (hoevos rancheros downright weird, eggs benedict terrific) all in all the food was good and the desserts were outstanding, inventive and delicious. The service was gracious and friendly and when appopriate also unobtrusive. In fact, we liked our server so much we added an extra tip! And of course, the location can't be beat, especially when followed by post-meal stroll down to the water.
This is the perfect restaurant. A view of San Francisco Bay, the Golden Gate Bridge, and the Marin Headlands. Add some fabulous food, excellent service, and a bygone ambience and you have yourself a very special experience. What is there to not like about this place?
The chef stopped by our table and introduced himself, such a nice touch! We had a fabulous time, entertaining an out of town guest. Murray Circle is our "go to" when we know we need great food, great ambiance and great service without question.
A wonderful location and well-prepared, fresh ingredients. Our poached salmon was cold but quickly heated to suit us. Service was slow but charming.
Our first visit to Murray Circle was to celebrate our wedding anniversary and it was a really enjoyable evening. The food was really quite good, but not especially memorable. Our server stopped by regularly, but didn't rush the pace. I would definitely recommend to a friend looking for a nice place to celebrate a special occasion.
Quiet at lunchtime! Fresh tomato soup, HOMEMADE potato chips a real treat. Hearty enough portions that we had no room for dessert. Excellent cocktails with beautiful garnishes although waiter brought the wrong one. Short walk from here to view the America's Cup without crowds a real plus.
Lunch. Tasty. Good portion size. Nice desserts. Terrific view from the veranda, although we sat inside. High ceilings of pressed tin, large rooms, did not feel crowded. Recommend.
We appreciated the care and attention given to us with the service and craft of each serving of the meal. Our waiter communicated well and helped us to navigate the menu. He has good instincts and a thoughtful manner. We especially appreciated his request to identify any food allergies and his orientation to the non-alcoholic beverage list. I ordered his recommendation and it was fine. I would be interested to have more choice of cocktails that are less sweet and non-alc beer choices from northern California's microbreweries. Our entrees, pork and duck were beautifully presented and a delight to eat.
Our dinning experience was perfect except for the spotty service. As soon as we were seated we were promised some of their yummy pistachios, but they never arrived. We did notice that EVERY table around us got theirs as soon as they sat down. The other issue we encountered was when we asked for our un-eaten dishes (half of the steak, half of our sides and half of the full cheese course) to be boxed up, we only ended up with the cheese. I would still recommend the restaurant based solely on the food quality and the extensive wine list, but would qualify to anyone that you need to be firm with your server to DELIVER on your order.
Tried to have a set lunch for the first time - somehow I have read wrong that there is the set lunch on Saturday. - Wait a while until someone come to give us a glass of water -the waiter was very attentive - I wished the soup you served was a bit warmer - the breads with Mussel - like crouton were rather hard - seem like used the left over bread or over baked However, I have enjoyed the overall. The lady at the reception is very pleasant. We have a good seat. I will try to have different choice for my next visit.
This place is not to be missed. The food is excellent and the ambiance is off the scale. Each time I go to Murray Circle I feel as if I am on vacation, miles away from home. Can't wait to go back.
I'm not a foodie or even a big eater, but this food was so flavorful that I practically licked my plate. On two different nights, I had halibut and salmon' my husband had a pork medley and gnocchi. Appetizers were fish cheeks and soup. Lunch was a salad tartar; husband had a perfect hamburger. I can't say enough. These were meals I'll never forget.
The menu was interesting and different, we both had the plate of small select foods And a luscious dessert. No wine as it does not agree with me at noon! Our waiter was very attentive and helpful in choosing. Definitely would recommend this to a friend. It was "our" birthdays so, of course, our dessert arrived with candle!! Very special.
Food was nice, Service was competent but slow, view and weather from the patio were out of this world!
We had a small (8) family lunch here. Lunch was great - good choices for different tastes - and service was excellent. In addition, i arrived on crutches and the hostess offered, before i asked, to bring an extra chair over as my leg must remain elevated. Thanks!
I had visitors from London - definite foodies, worldly people in every sense of the word and they loved everything about the place. One of them was light-sensitive so a slightly darkened table was very much appreciated. Also had a reservation for 1 pm but was caught up in a traffic jam in SF and when I called the restaurant they were able to accommodate us at 1:45 - I was very grateful. My guests thought the place, the food, the ambiance was a highlight of their visit - even surpassing - by a slight margin - a dinner at Gary Danko! Thank you.
Had a very romantic anniversary dinner. The food and the service were both excellent!
Terrific service and setting. Food pretty good but a bit spotty. Salade Nicoise kind of ordinary; salmon flatbread and Rueben were great.
Our dinner was wonderful. We had the trout and pork sampler both of which were delicious. Loved the salad with Birata and the side of macaroni and cheese. We were a little disappointed with the desserts as both were a little dry. Our server was charming and helpful.
Our Murray Circle Restaurant experience was superb, the food delectable. I especially appreciated there being multiple vegetarian options. Had there not been an option I liked, the level of service suggested the Chef would have prepared something off the menu.
My wife and I were celebrating our 50th wedding anniversary and stayed at Cavallo Point. We had brunch at Murray Circle. The view was great, the ambiance good and the service was excellent. The food was a different take on some traditional items such as Eggs Benedict. All and all a leisurely and enjoyable brunch.
We wanted a special place for our 18th anniversary, and this place did not disappoint. Both our dining experiences have been top notch here.
My husband and I went here for my birthday. Every bite I had was delicious and impressive. The service was wonderful and you can't beat the location and ambiance. Thank you for a wonderful night!
Came here for a special event. Will return just to enjoy the food and ambiance.
There is no better spot for a giant pile of truffled fries and a glass of wine. The squid salad could have used a bit more textural interest. Were the little gems an entree?
Food is stellar. The decor and ambiance is just the right amount of design without feeling pretentious or stuff. Solid service. A good place to celebrate a special occasion.
Just celebrated an anniversary as a first timer at this gem. Everything was perfect including the weather so we could eat outside! Liked it so much made plans to return for dinner next week and booked a weekend next year for a birthday celebration.
The service was the best possible--always attentive, expertly knowledgeable, good-natured, and with a memorable personality yet completely respectful. Dessert was epicurean, dinner was fine and delicious and with subtlety. The port the waiter brought with my dessert--his choice at my request--was better than hoped for. Also, the restaurant has what other "top" restaurants need but lack in the SF Bay Area, a nice and friendly and cheerful front room welcome by a very alert maitress d'. And the atmosphere is unique.
I am never disappointed and love to take out of towners as well locals there for a wonderful dining experience. The staff are always friendly and efficient. I will suggest this for special occasions often.
This is our sixth visit to the restaurant. We drive an hour to get to the restaurant, but it's well worth it. We took a friend who'd never been, and she thought it was the best location of any restaurant she'd been to in the San Francisco/North Bay Area. It's a real gem. It's even dog friendly with a great field out in front for the pooches to run.
We enjoyed a brunch that was so good we are still talking about it days later. The food is high quality and the presentation is excellent. From appetizers to dessert it was a fabulous meal. It was simply the best Eggs Benedict we have ever had. I think the home made bisquits made it especially good. Great property, great views, great everything! We will be back many times.
Our new favorite. AND they treat celebrations oh so classy!
Well done, but our server though out of cork, despite my telling him that we wanted it...
The restaurant is a nice upscale place to go to. Food was great. Service was good but a little over attentive and interrupted our experience a little too much, but still proper service for the type of restaurant.
We have wanted to try Murray Circle for some time having heard great things about Cavallo Point. This was the best dining experience I have had in several years. We arrived early and we were seated right away at a table with a view outside, next to the fire place. Our waiter was wonderful- provided excellent wine and menu suggestions. The food was extremely fresh and it was obvious how well prepared it was. We had a perfect dinner- bonus points for the delicious ahi tuna.
Murray Circle is resort dining & they do a good job making diners feeling special. Tasting menu had excellent seafood courses & desert, and adequate meat & sorbet courses. Three of the wine pairings were excellent , one good, one flat. Some other menu items that we did not have looked excellent. Some larger parties made conversation challenging during peak noise. Young kids coming in/out, and the many wait staff added to the energetic level. Later was quieter. We may go back, though for now we may seek less energetic choices. Murray Circle may be the best resort dining experience in the SF area, but it's a step below the Tucson resorts we have frequented. It is in GGNRA, and for fine dining in a national park, it meets expectations.
WOW. A great table with a super presentation. EVERYTHING was wonderful, the service atmosphere.
great service, love both the outdoor and the indoor seating
Quite inventive dining experience with extraordinarily fresh ingredients Use of vegetables really complemented the entrees The dessert was small but intense and still a delight to share. For the rare warmer weather, the porch seating has a specular view of the Golden Gate Bridge.
And it was phenomenon. Quiche was flavorful, rich ad moist. Crisp crust and healthy portion. Eggs Benny, able to replace bacon with salmon. Attentive professional staff, very aware and good at picking moments to approach table. Unrushed. Nice cozy booth next to fire with pillows. 4th time here, 1st for brunch, definitely not the last. Very consistent , never disappointed. Great upscale bar as well.
Brought our friends from Norway, foodies at heart and very educated on wines as well as some locals from Mill Valley who had dined at Murray Circle many times. It was our Norwegian friends birthday and she was totally pleased. The night was as close to perfect as could be.
We held a birthday celebration dinner, and the experience exceeded all expectations. Our waitperson was friendly, engaging, and very knowledgeable about the food and the wine. I am a vegan, and the entree with Daikon "scallops" and roasted Maitake mushrooms was phenomenal. The birthday girl had the short ribs and they were so tender you could cut them with a fork. We could not have asked for a better dining experience.
This was a special date that I came up with for myself and my boyfriend of one year. Ok, so I knocked his socks off with this little Gem. After we took a walk across the golden gate bridge which was right there. We will never forget the day~
What a fabulous evening we had ! we were seated in front of the fireplace in comfy leather wing chairs ,so welcoming.Our server was terrific,very low key but able.Also he didn't want to be our new best friend ,just the right affect.Food perfect,try the ahi tartare but get your own portion !! Great time.
Wonderful sensibility. Excellent wine pairing. We had Thanksgiving Dinner there for the second year in a row and we were not disappointed. (T'Giving traditional is not a situation to test the chef.)
Friends and I delight in Cavallo Pt. Even driving there is exciting: across GG Bridge, catching glimpses of the cove and CP as we wind around the roads, checking out the view almost under the Bridge. Then sitting on the porch to drink and/or eat, or inside in the charming bar, then into the restaurant where the staff is welcoming and the service very good. The food is interesting and well presented. We have been several times and always enjoy the experience.
Four of us went for the Thanksgiving Dinner, it was wonderful experience. We are thinking of making this a tradition for Thanksgiving. Not only was the food, servicce and view great but we did not have to cook or clean up. What a terrific Thanksgiving idea!
Located on the Fort Baker property overseeing the Golden Gate Bridge and the city of San Francisco. A great lunch spot with wonderful food. Your not rushed !
