Birds of Tokyo are an alternative rock band from Australia who rose to domestic mainstream success with their second album, Universes (2008). Founded in 2004 in Perth, Western Australia, the band was originally comprised of Ian Kenny (vocals; also of the band Karnivool), Adam Spark (guitar), Anthony Jackson (bass), and Adam Weston (drums). Birds of Tokyo made their recording debut in 2005 with a pair of EPs (Birds of Tokyo, One Way/Stay) released in association with the independent label Egg Records. The song "Stay" earned the band its first of many WAMi Awards (West Australian Music Industry Awards), this one for Rock Song of the Year. Two years later, Birds of Tokyo released their full-length album debut, Day One (2007), and won a pair of WAMi Awards (Favorite Newcomer, Best Male Vocalist). Their second album, Universes (2008), marked their mainstream breakthrough, peaking at number three on the Australian albums chart and spawning a pair of singles ("Silhouettic," "Broken Bones").
The band's eponymously titled third album was released by EMI in July of 2010, included the hit singles "Plans" and "Wild at Heart," and went on to receive double-platinum certifications. Following this success, the Australian music industry gongs continued to flood in. These included APRA awards for songwriting and a "Most Popular Australian Artist" award at the 2011 ARIA ceremony. Ahead of sessions in Los Angeles for a fourth album with David Cooley and Tony Hoffer, Birds of Tokyo brought two new players into the fold: Glenn Sarangapany on keyboards and Ian Berney who replaced Jackson on bass. Also prior to these sessions, Kenny, Spark, and Weston each left Perth behind, relocating to cities on the eastern coast of Australia. The resulting record, March Fires, was appropriately released in March 2013 and became the band's first album to hit the number one spot in the Australian charts. ~ Jason Birchmeier & James Wilkinson, Rovi

The World's Most Expensive Speakers
Magico's Ultimate
The Magico Ultimate speaker system is a five-way system housed in 7.5-foot aircraft-grade hard-anodized aluminium enclosures, featuring four pairs of high-grade compression drivers with 8 ohms of impedance and sensitivity greater than 110 dB as well as a pair of subwoofers with 4 ohms of impedance and 88 dB sensitivity. The system has a frequency response from 22 Hz to 30 KHz. It also requires the use of 10 channels of premium amplification, which could easily run you an extra $200,000 but will benefit from the Ultimate's ultra-efficient design and could produce levels comparable to a hard rock concert.

Was wondering what to do with some chicken thighs in the freezer and fancied something Asian and liked the simplicity of this recipe but I have to say that there is no way these chicken thighs or rice will cook in 25 minutes. Its been in 45 and still plenty of liquid that has not evaporated. Yet to taste it........sitting here with beer which is runing out whilst watching the London 2012 Olympics. Smells good though.

So, I'm trying to learn Japanese, being as I live in Japan, so I've decided to start this series. I'm armed with a mathematical English-Japanese dictionary, a kanji look-up website, and a willingness to be corrected if I happen to have any Japanese readers. So, this post may not appear correctly if you don't have Japanese fonts installed, just a warning, and if I explain anything incorrectly, let me know in the comments and I'll correct the post.

Understanding Integration I: Riemann SurfacesPosted by Charles Siegel under Abelian Varieties, AG From the Beginning, Algebraic Geometry, Complex Analysis, Curves

I'm back! And now, posting from Kavli IPMU in Japan. Now, I'm going to start a series on theta functions, Jacobians, Pryms, and abelian varieties more generally, hopefully with some applications, with my goal being at least one post a week, and eventually establishing a regular posting schedule again. But today, we'll start with basics, something that should be completely understandable to graduate students and advanced undergraduates.

An update!Posted by Charles Siegel under Uncategorized
[4] Comments
Hi everyone, it's been a LONG time since I last posted to this blog, and I intend to do so a bit more now that a few things have been handled. The first of the handled things: I just defended my thesis today! And it was successful! So, once I finish writing it up for publication, I'm going to put some version of exposition on it here. The other thing is that I'm employed in the fall. I'm going to be spending the next three years as a Postdoc at Kavli IPMU at the University of Tokyo. So, I should be back to posting by the end of the month, and this blog may well start to include some things other than math, like involving moving to Japan and adapting, learning the language, and the like.

Review: LiveScribe Echo Digital PenPosted by Charles Siegel under Uncategorized
[13] Comments
I'm still here! Though posting will be a bit sporadic in the future, as I'm spending the majority of my time working on my thesis. I'll be back to blogging a bit more often once that's been finished. So, here's a review I started writing back in November, but has sat in the draft box since then:
About six months ago I asked people for opinions about digital pens, and did my own research, so I decided to pick up a LiveScribe Echo based on what I'd heard, and the campus computer store has a 10 day return policy (so long as packaging is intact) so I decided to give it a try. For those who are impatient, the short version of my review is: the digital pen is good, and I'm keeping mine, but there are a few improvements that would go a long way to mainstreaming, so I give it a 4/5.

Let be an unramified double cover, where is geneus . Then has genus by the Riemann-Hurwitz formula. Now, encodes lots of information about the geometry of , especially with the additional data of the theta divisor. It turns out that for double covers, there's an abelian variety that contains a lot of this data.

Stats and Notes:
Sunday's win gave Dallas a 2-0 home record to start the season for the first time since 2007 and fourth time since 1999. The club also did it in 2006. When Dallas opened its home schedule 2-0 in 2007, the club beat the N.Y. Giants in the home opener, followed by a win over St. Louis – the same as this season.
The Dallas defense yielded 18 yards to the Rams offense in the first half of Sunday's game. The 18 yards was the fewest Dallas allowed in a half since giving up 17 against Seattle (10/11/92).
The defense also held St. Louis to one-of-13 on third downs. It was the 18th time since 1991 an opponent had one-or-fewer third down conversions. The last time was at Philadelphia (11/11/12) when the Eagles were one-of-10.
The Dallas defense registered six sacks Sunday, the most since six at San Francisco (9/18/11).
Hatcher's sack was also his third straight game with a sack – the longest streak in his career.
Murray's 175 yards also tied Tony Dorsett (at Baltimore, 12/6/81) for the ninth-best single-game rushing yards figure in franchise history.
Murray carried the ball a career-high 26 times Sunday. His average of 6.7 yards-per-carry were good for his third-highest single-game average (minimum 10 carries).
When Murray tallies 20-or-more carries in a game, the Dallas Cowboys own a 10-0 record – including one non-start.
Murray now has five career 100-yard outings.
Tony Romo's touchdown tosses Sunday gave him a scoring pass in each of the previous 15 games. It also gave him 183 career touchdown throws to pass Rich Gannon (180) and Steve Grogan (182) and tie Craig Morton for 47th in career touchdown passes in NFL history.
Ware's 2.0 sacks Sunday also upped his club record of multiple sack games to 28.
With his five catches for 67 yards,
Witten's five catches Sunday brought his career receptions total to 822 to pass Steve Largent (819) 22nd among all NFL pass catchers.
For his career, Witten now has 9,097 receiving yards and passed Tony Martin (9,065) to crack the top-50 and land in the 49th spot on the NFL's all-time receiving yards chart.
Jason Hatcher:
Can you tell us this- We hear that you got in front of the team again in here after the game today?
I was just telling them how proud of them I was. We came out and played great tonight. I'm happy. I wouldn't trade, I wouldn't be in no other place. We've got great guys on this team and they responded well. They came out. We did what we were supposed to do. We were supposed to win this game and we won.
There's also a report you had to get on to Romo too (separate series of questions)…
I love Romo to death man. I wasn't getting on Romo. I love Romo to death. He came out and he balled out tonight. Did you see that? He balled out. They ran the ball, he threw the ball great, he's the best quarterback in the league. So I love Romo to death. That's my brother.
You all are good then?
Hell yeah. Where is Romo at? Tell him to come over here. I'm gonna hug his neck. We ain't got no issues. Where'd you get all that from? I love Romo-Romo loves me. We are teammates, we're brothers-brotherhood.
Sean , first of all, can we get your thoughts on Ware getting the all time sack record for the Cowboys?
I mean he's one of the greatest pass rushers of all time. To play with him has been an honor. Not only is he are great player, he's a great leader, he's a great person. So for him; it's just a testament for how hard he works because everyday in practice he's working on his game; he's motivating guys. He's a complete player and a complete person and it's been fantastic to play with him.
Sean, when DeMarco's controlling the ball like that, and you guys have a lot more time of possession, how does that help you guys as a unit when you're able to get off to the sideline and get some rest and get back out there and fly around the football?
It's great. DeMarco is an unbelievable running back and they did a fantastic job today: The offensive line and DeMarco. If you give DeMarco holes he can make great cuts and can take it all the way. He's a complete back and so it was fun to see him break out a little bit today.
Tony Romo:
Are the ribs continuing to feel better?
Yeah, they're feeling good. And I think the next game, they'll be fine.
Did you sense the running game would be this successful today?
I don't know that you ever go in thinking…I don't know how many yards we rushed for? Yeah, that's almost 200 yards, I mean that's a lot at any level, especially the NFL. That's just a credit to the guys up front and DeMarco and what they did today. That makes my job and everyone else's much easier. We wanted to run the football today, and we did a good job of obviously having production to make it easy to do so.
How well did the offensive line play?
They did great. They created some big holes and they also gave me time throughout the game to do some different things and get to some certain guys that you normally wouldn't get to. Like I said before, it makes everyone's job easier when you have some good guys up front.
How do you feel Gavin Escobar is coming along?
He's young. He almost had the one [touchdown] earlier in the game, like you said. I thin he lost his shoe against New York on one where I think he would have had one. So, it was just a matter of time. He did a good job on the route today. He's a big target, so that helps.

Feds Detaining Man Indefinitely Over Facebook Posts
'A former marine is being detained indefinitely for posting politically controversial Facebook posts pre-crime surveillance flagged as 'terroristic in nature'
While being blacked out by the corporate media altogether blogs and the alternative media are in a uproar over the arrest of a former marine Brandon Raub whose attorney has announced is now being detained indefinitely – Yes, the NDAA indefinite detention nightmare resurfaces wearing a new mask.
Raub, who served 2 tours of duty in our illegal overseas wars, has posted a series of messages considered politically controversial but are nothing more than what tens of thousands Americans post across the internet on a daily basis.
Raub is now being defended by the Rutherford Institute, Civil and Human Rights organization, who says the sole reason for his unconstitutional detention is the federal government has determined his posts are 'terroristic in nature'.'

The CCC, part of President Franklin D. Roosevelt's New Deal, was a public works relief program which operated from 1933 to 1942. It was designed to provide jobs for unskilled, unemployed young men between the ages of 18-25, abd help families who had trouble finding work during the Great Depression. The program also provided a general natural resources conservation program in every state and territory.

Showing 1 through 10 of 41 reviews
"Wouldn t stay lit but still OK"
This cigar was mild and peppery! I didn t like it, but my friend did. It needed relit several times and burned uneven, but still was a decent mild cigar. No nasty aftertaste. This is great for if you re a little drunk and not in a position to savor a good cigar. It s perfectly adequate.Kay in July 21, 2014
"Decent for the price.."
Draw is too loose, taste is bitter/cedar wood with a short finish, creamy texture, construction is some in the middle, but for the price.. Is a sure buy. Will not buy again, but i have another same Maroma.. I will let 'em age like a year or so.. And see if it will change anything with the flavors.Raz in Israel October 1, 2013
"Decent weekday cigar"
Decent mild flavor. Inconsistent construction and burn from cigar to cigar otherwise I would rate it higher. Still can't beat it for the price.Don in Las Vegas September 1, 2013
"Nothing fantastic"
Just a mild cigar. Nothing great, nothing bad.Cal Cameron in Kentucky June 11, 2013
"Work in yard Cigars"
Easy cigar to smoke and doesn't require a lot of attention while smoking so great for working in the yard fishing etc. With the Maroma line letting them rest is key as soon as I get these they come right out of the celo and into my humi and stay there for months and they are a much different cigar when I pull them out as compared to when I put them in. Easy buy for me a 1.00$ I do prefer the Maroma dulce thoughMichael in Cincinnati January 16, 2013
"A dud."
This cigar was from a mild sampler pack. I did not enjoy it. The cigar didn't cut very well. The cut was flat but the tip crumbled, however this didn't produce any tobacco bits while smoking. It lit easily and the draw was fine. The burn was very uneven and it did not want to stay lit. I kept it going, but it was work. The ash held a long time. The aroma was nice but the taste was a little bitter. I just didn't like this smoke.Tony M in Plano, TX July 8, 2012
"Good daily Smoke"
Good draw and burn, great taste, by far my favorite among the Maromas I've tried.RonB in Pacifica, CA April 20, 2012
"Well its Ok"
Second one out of a sampler pack found it mild, had to take several puffs to keep it going for the first half, the draw seamed loose, it tasted better at the end. I would spend a little more and purchase something better.Game Chef in Silicon valley Ca March 3, 2012
"A nice light smoke"
Tight draw at first light. Mild light flavour, nice even burn. Ash a bit grey. very smooth second half a bit light for me but if your looking for a nice lighter smoke with a cold beer this is a good choice.Chris in Ashburn Ontario Canada December 29, 2011
This was a stick from a sampler.I'm new to the cigar scene. I took the suggestion of smoking this with a cup of coffee and enjoyed it. I noticed a slight difference in flavor when I ran out of the coffee. Don't let this one linger in the ashtray, I slowed down a bit toward the end and had to double-puff to keep it from getting that cold tobacco taste.Mark in Upstate NY December 16, 2011

Futurist & Technology Consultant,

Should the Federal Reserve System be under the control of our elected officials?
According to the United States Federal Reserve System's Board of Governors, the Federal Reserve System "is considered an independent central bank because its monetary policy decisions do not have to be approved by the President or anyone else in the executive or legislative branches of government, it does not receive funding appropriated by the Congress, and the terms of the members of the Board of Governors span multiple presidential and congressional terms." [Source: http://www.federalreserve.gov/faqs/about_14986.htm]
Poll after poll says significant majorities of Americans want to either abolish or open up the U.S. Federal Reserve to public review. [One example: http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2010-12-09/more-than-half-of-americans-want-fed-reined-in-or-abolished.html.] Since their policy has such a significant impact on all of us (even world wide) , and since the power to control our currency explicitly rests with the Federal Government, you would think Congress could change this if it were not tied up in knots such as it is.
Would anyone - could anyone - argue against putting the Fed under control of our elected officials?

Greg FoxApr 10 2013: Our current government cannot deal with the federal reserve until we have dealt with our government. The way things stand now, it would be inviting the fox into the henhouse. Once we get the government under our control, then and only then can we address issues with the federal reserve. As Lawrence Lessig pointed out so eloquently, the moneyed interests are in control and anything they did with the FR, at this point, would not be to the benefit of the American people, just the corporations.

Hawker Pacific in Avionics Upgrade Firsts
Hawker Pacific is hailing a couple of breakthroughs in avionics upgrades at its Asian service centers. At its Manila base in the Philippines, the company installed a Rockwell Collins Pro Line 21 avionics suite on a Beechcraft King Air 350 turboprop. This "first" was a collaborative effort with its service center in Cairns, Australia. Meanwhile in Singapore, three King Air B200s received–for the first time in Asia, according to Hawker Pacific–Garmin G1000 systems. The same facility is now working on another major project: the installation of a Honeywell EASy II cockpit to upgrade a Dassault Falcon 900EX business jet.

Jacksonville Jaguars | Pick 3 |QB | Blake Bortles | UCF
The Jacksonville Jaguars are in desperate need of a franchise QB. The Blaine Gabbert experiment has been an epic failure and everybody in Jacksonville knows it. Bortles offers both good size and athleticism. I have him as the 2nd best quarterback in this years draft. I think Bortles has the potential to be better than Teddy Bridgewater, but just hasn't fully tapped into it yet.
It helps that Bortles is already living in Florida, too. Moving across the country and starting a new life can be difficult on a young player, the Bortles pick makes perfect sense for the Jags.
Cleveland Browns | Pick 4 | QB | Johnny Manziel | Texas A&M
Thanks to the early season trade of Trent Richardson, the Cleveland Browns will be picking twice in the first round this year. That's good news for Cleveland fans, seeing as the Browns are in the market for an entirely new backfield.
With reports coming out that Cleveland is interested in Johnny Manziel, I have him going here. Cleveland seems like a good fit for Manziel. The Dog Pound has long been hungry for a franchise QB and I think Johnny Football could be that guy. Manziel, who is only 6 feet tall, has surprisingly good field vision. His arm strength and playmaking abilities have both improved over the past year, too.
In preparation for the NFL draft, Manziel is working with George Whitfield Jr., again. Whitfield is responsible for coaching up players like Ben Roethlisberger, Cam Newton, and Andrew Luck. The fact that Manziel has been working with him is a good sign.

The native wildflower Trailing arbutus is in bloom throughout Falmouth conservation lands.
The small, trumpet shaped flowers of this creeping plant are often partially hidden under leaf litter and the plant's oval evergreen leaves.
Also known as Mayflower, Trailing arbutus was designated the state flower of Massachusetts in 1918. Its scientific name is Epigaea repens. Flowers can be white or pink.
"The seeds are dispersed by ants that carry the soft placental tissue back to their nests with the seeds attached," according to the New England Wildflower Society.

WebMD The Magazine - Feature
Susan Davis
Reviewed by
Laura J. Martin, MD
In every issue of WebMD the Magazine, we ask experts to answer readers' questions about a wide range of topics, including some of the oldest and most cherished medical myths out there. For our May 2011 issue, we asked David Freedman, MD, professor of medicine and epidemiology at the University of Alabama at Birmingham and a board member of the International Society of Travel Medicine, about the widespread belief that airplane air has lots of germs.
A: Lots of people believe this, but it's actually FALSE.
Here's why: Airplane cabins come equipped with HEPA (high-efficiency particulate air) filters that are as good "as those found in isolation units in hospitals," Freedman says. "And viruses and bacteria are big enough that they are trapped in those filters."
The health risk with airplane travel, Freedman says, "isn't the recirculated air. It's the people sitting next to you." That's because when people cough and sneeze, the droplets can travel 3 to 6 feet in any direction.
What to do? Try to move your seat if you discover that someone sitting near you is sick. Of course, all those germ-laden droplets also land on trays, window shades, seats, and surfaces in the bathroom. So be double sure to wash your hands, "especially before you eat," Freedman advises. "Bacteria and viruses can live for hours -- and in some cases, days -- on inanimate objects."

- Reservation?OpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 9/25/2014I had made a reservation several days in advance and the reservation was confirmed the night before the dinner. However, when we showed up they told us that no table was available and squished us into a couple of seats on a bench. We were told we would be moved to a table once it became available but that never happened. The food and service was excellent but a reservation should hold a table. I was disappointed and likely won't return.Special Features:
- Pleasant surpriselike2eatDined on 9/24/2014My wife and I just had our anniversary dinner at Mkt. and the experience was wonderful. Such a cozy atmosphere and the food was amazing! Good service and atmosphere. We'll be back!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Perfection!Kitty82Dined on 9/20/2014Delicious food, tasty drinks, great service and a fun atmosphere. We will definitely be going back soon!Special Features:
- DeliciousmellimelDined on 9/20/2014You cannot choose something off of this menu you won't like. The food is amazing, service is stupendous, and the overall experience perfect.Special Features:
- OpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 9/19/2014This being our first visit, we were dismayed to wait standing outside for almost 25 minutes even though we arrived on time for our reservation that had been confirmed that day. The table at which we were seated was clean, set, and available for the entire wait time. Once we were seated, the service was very good. Food was really interesting and well prepared. Our server was knowledgable and helpful in choosing dishes that would work well together and we had a great time and will recommend it to others.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Food heavenOpenTable Diner Since 2010Dined on 9/17/2014There wasn't a wrong note to be had. Every dish was amazingly good. The cod was a revelation, putting all other cod I've ever had in the dust. The wine recommended by our server went beautifully with our selections. I look forward to returning!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- ellieDined on 9/16/2014The food was delicious, as it has been on the three other occasions that I went to Mkt. Our server, Ani, was incredible. She was attentive, gave very helpful suggestions and even allowed us to have a taste of a few wines that we were deciding between.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Outstanding Experience!foodlover604Dined on 9/14/2014From the service, to the wine, to the sharing of an array of delicious unique dishes, it was a dining experience we'll never forget! We will be back for sure!Special Features:
- small, noisy and HOT!AdainSeattleVIPDined on 9/13/20144 of us dined here and sat at a table which backed up to the kitchen divider...the 2 who were sitting abutting the kitchen had the heat of the kitchen on their backs all night, but all of us were HOT. Even in winter I'm thinking those seats would be too warm. We were disappointed in the food- we tasted a good portion of the menu and found many items heavy and fried (quail so heavily battered and then fried that it could have been anything), fried cauliflower, fried green beans (you see where the heat was coming from), not many light and refreshing options. The service was very good.Special Features:
- Fabulous!OpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 9/13/2014The gnocchi is to die for. Grilled duck was spot on. Service was adequate. Another ESR in the books! Will definitely return.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- hospitable and deliciouschoconancyDined on 9/12/2014Wonderful, thoughtfully prepared food, fresh, diverse in flavors and down right yummy. Attw give service and ambiance just quiet enough for conversation even while tables are close in the small space. The departing gift of fresh pasta was enjoyed last night. YumSpecial Features:
- Spectacular servicerarereviewerDined on 9/8/2014Food was great, but the service was amazing. Such friendly staff made the difference.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- MKTSeattlefoodieDined on 9/7/2014Tiny restaurant with no air conditioning. It was a hot day & uncomfortable to sit inside for dinner. Average food but good service. Scallops and salmon were over salted and over cooked!Special Features:
- DivineOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 9/6/2014We went for my birthday. Just the two of us. The waiter was attentive but not overly fussy. He was friendly and down to earth but clearly of a refined caliber. We got a seat at the common table which breaches the front window opening. so one person sits outside and the other inside with a great view of the moon lit street on a late summer night. With candles on the table the mood was low and quiet. Small space so very intimate with a quaint feel like a European cafe. The food was perfect.Special Features:
- Mixed feelingsLivetoeatDined on 9/3/2014Food was very good. Service was also very good...so what's the problem? Serving size was Tapas-like, but not the price. Also, the place is so tight that it is hard to relax. I hope their popularity will enable the owners to expand and move to cozier quarters.Special Features:
- Foodie Date Night Heaven!AstoriaFishPimpDined on 9/3/2014I found Mkt. while searching online for a restaurant during our visit to Seattle, it seemed to fit all the criteria we were looking for, so we went for it. It was everything we hoped for and so much more! Our server, Seth, was attentive and friendly and served us one of the best bottles of wine we've had in ages (get the Romeo Barbera). The food was fantastic, it left us wondering why in the world more people don't serve rabbit, our favorite dish of the night if we HAD to choose. The chef took time to serve us some treats in-between courses, one being a tomato gazpacho with smoked trout eggs and creme fraiche - SO GOOD. A lovely little neighborhood spot that was cozy and intimate without being pretentious. We will be back!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- MKTfinewineDined on 8/23/2014A really nice atmosphere with outdoor like seating and nice wine list - knowledgeable and very friendly staff - we definitely will be back if in Seattle againSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Very special go-to date night spot!runsararunDined on 8/21/2014The food is fantastic and you can not go wrong on the menu! The restaurant is small and intimate the service and staff are over the top! We feel really really lucky to have this amazing spot in our neighborhood but for those of you out of the zip code, worth your trip to get here!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- MKT DeliverschewfxDined on 8/18/2014We didn't have a bad bite of the 13 dishes we tried. Delicious food executed flawlessly. Very personable service. My only critique is that the bench and chairs were a tad uncomfortable. Highly recommended.Special Features:
- OpenTable Diner Since 2008VIPDined on 8/15/2014fabulous dinner, everything was great. The best food and service.
- Wonderful foodRachelDined on 8/14/2014The food is the star of the show. All the different flavors in the small plates make it an interesting and varied dining experience. The pace of the dinner was perfect and it was just a really lovely experience.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Mkt delivers againMagnoliaDined on 8/13/2014This was our second visit and we were not disappointed. Even simple sounding dishes were elevated with herbal nuances and proteins were cooked to perfection. Our server was friendly and had perfect suggestions for wines when we were indecisive. My wallet is glad we don't live in the neighborhood - we would be here all the time!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2004Dined on 8/13/2014Ingredient driven menu with outstanding execution. Price for quality was good. They were able to modify all of our choices to be gluten free. Wine choices (as always with ESR) were great. We would go back for food even though the space is very cramped and atmosphere was somewhat lacking compared w/ other ESR venues. They need to improve air flow, especially in the back of the restaurant during summer months.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Fabulous!AmberDined on 8/11/2014mkt. consistently serves delicious and inventive food with a focus on quality ingredients. It is intimate and has great hospitality. We have loved it every time we have gone.Special Features:
- Great date nightOpenTable Diner Since 2010Dined on 8/10/2014Good for couples and groups of 4 but not for anything larger. Excellent and interesting food and very attentive and friendly service.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great foodDomFDined on 8/9/2014We enjoyed our night at MKT. It is quite a small venue so our reservations ran a little late. They were nice enough to give us some drinks on the house while we were waiting. The Black Cod & Scallops were melt in your mouth amazing and the gnocchi was great also. It is a good idea to do everything family style.Special Features:
- Great foodMktexperienceDined on 8/9/2014Great food and service the only recommendations would be to have a better wine storage system so your wine temp is better. Our food was outstanding but the wine was too warm for spending that kind of moneyI would recommend this to a friend.
- Get some smaller forkssushiqDined on 8/7/2014The staff at mkt. is warm, welcoming, and upbeat. My favorite food items were the creamy gazpacho that our chef presented us with before our meal, and the gnocchi. My experience at mkt. fell short of other Ethan Stowell restaurants-my favorite being Staple & Fancy. The food was good, but not exciting-and too small - as in pickled vegetables that are condiment size bites. I love small plate dining, which usually means big flavor, but my palate wasn't quite satisfied (definitely not for the price)...and what's with the giant forks?!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Order a lotOpenTable Diner Since 2006VIPDined on 8/7/2014Flavors were fantastic and preparation was perfection. Waitstaff is exceptional. My only complaint, and this seems typical of Ethan Stowell restaurants, portions are miniscule. And they insist that all items on the menu are shared plates - how am I supposed to share a salad of 4 tomatoes and 1 leaf of lettuce? You have to order A LOT to feel satisfied. I get it - fancy food is about quality, not quantity. I am not looking for Claim Jumper sized portions, but the portions at mkt do not warrant the price.Special Features:
- Great food and staffWskrDined on 8/4/2014We ordered 5 dishes plus dessert to share the chef and servers were friendly and imformative. The food was amazing. The space is super small which made it a little warm and loud but that didn't take away from our eveningSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Excellent foodRinaVIPDined on 8/3/2014Our first time dining for the four of us. The reviews I read were good so we thought we would try the place out. Service was outstanding. The food was excellent! The price point could have been a little bit less expensive. Overall it was a wonderful experience. The music was very loud though. Small space, so don't go with a big crowd. Ventilation was poor, so outside seating is recommended. Neighborhood gem.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- PerfectionOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 8/1/2014I cannot say enough good things about this restaurant! Mkt. was absolutely the best dining experience I have had in years. The small space is both intimate and energetic, with an atmosphere that is absolutely perfect for lingering over a bottle of wine. The food was superb and the wait staff was personable and entertaining while not overbearing. Seth even did a dance for us! I cannot recoomend Mkt. enough! If I lived in Seattle this would be my go to restaurant.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Epic winSweetbreadsDined on 7/31/2014This was for a birthday celebration an I cannot wait to back. Stellar service. Amazing food. Good timing. Good suggestions. Win.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Tight squeezeFredDined on 7/27/2014If you have back issues or want a comfortable seat when you eat, MKT is not for you. Kitchen dominates and diners are shoehorned in. Servers are very pleasant and efficient. Food is mostly small plates and good. We had a reservation but were given a glass of water and asked to wait outside because the kitchen was "slammed". We were seated at our request about 15 minutes late. This is not a relaxing place to eat but if you want, and have, high energy then the food is worth it.Special Features:
- Great dining experienceRay25VIPDined on 7/27/2014Went to mkt. with friends to celebrates my partners birthday. We followed our waiters suggestion to order all dishes as shareable a for the table; dinner was superb! They only had 3 cocktails on the menu which was concerning at first. Turns out their cocktail selection is small because they age their drinks in whiskey barrels and they were delicious. Highly recommend this place.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Cool spotWdpilecatDined on 7/16/2014Great little spot. Wonderful food and great service. Flavor profiles were right on. The space it tiny and intimate. Seating was rather uncomfortable and the ventilation not great on a hot night.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Uncomfort FoodSEAEATDined on 7/15/2014I visited mkt. with my out-of-town family. We had made reservations, but were placed at a table that butted up against the bathroom door, so we got a steady stream of traffic and constant whiffs of the toilet deodorizer throughout the meal. The table location ruined the meal. To pay 200+ for a meal and then be shoved by a bathroom is a slap in the face. It feels greedy. It's an insult to any customer who's seated there. Service was fine although more style than substance. The same can be said about the chairs, which are minimalist, wooden with no backs. This restaurant feels like it cares more about appearance than an actual nice dining experience, and the food, although good, is not special enough to merit being so uncomfortable.
- Worth every nickelSlowFooderDined on 7/13/2014A friend recommended this place and so hubby and I headed over. I could eat a cereal bowl of the ceviche and the wagyu beef was over the top. Generally not a fan of gnocchi but the sweet potato treats were wee pillows of deliciousness. I wish the cocktail signatures were a little more exciting/varied. It was a little too warm and loud in the back but the open seating in front worked. Those benches are hard though, bring a cushion! The service was wonderful, the night was perfect.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- incredible, but hotCrisHDined on 7/12/2014a wonderful restaurant but they need air conditioning!!! every item was flavored to perfection--just excellent. very attentive service.Special Features:
- Very friendly and great servicejackDined on 7/8/2014What a nice evening sitting outside and inside with our friends at the communal table. Champagne/wine and food was very good. We will be back!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

Better to be lucky than good?
(1) Torres whifs on a slapshot, but it finds a hole
(2) Torres Johnny on the spot after Carney runs into the linesman creating a break
(3) Carter flubs a pass, Pisani tucks her home.
Some other 2nd period thoughts...
I'd like to see another replay of the 2nd VAN goal, especially from overhead to see what went wrong there. On the one hand it was kind of a bad break, the way it went off Pronger, but he didn't react fast There was some sort of strange switch there as well, kind of a weird goal.
I also had a chuckle when Stoll went out for Spacek on the PP, who said it's hard to be an NHL coach? Won the faceoff and another nice Hemsky setup was squandered. that wasn't an easy play for Samsonov, but still, you'd have to think he should have cashed at least one of his 3 good chances tonight.
Peca had an neat sequence about 3 minutes into the 2nd, he made a bad telegraphed pass in the offensive zone but hustled back to make the defensive save at the other end. Kind of fun to watch.
With regards to the Spacek high stick, I didn't know that was the correct ruling. I know that you are allowed to follow through on a shot, I didn't know you could follow thru like that clearing the defensive zone. I'm not saying I have a problem with that rule (though I can understand the argument that any high stick should be called a high stick), but I wasn't aware it applied anywhere but after a shot. Learn something new every day.

I am declaring today a party day!! Any excuse to eat some more chocolate right? This past weekend and the last few days have been just a little stressful for me! Nothing super important, just computer things that make my eyes glaze over. All this coding and blog moving and learning has taken a toll on my brain!!! I am now officially all moved over to WordPress…what do you think of the new site? Mad props to my blog designer for totally making my blog say, Hello, I'm Jocelyn:-) I absolutely love it!!! She is incredible, and I can't sing her praises enough. Do you need design work done? Totally contact her!
I am slowly working my way around WordPress…I have figured out enough stuff to get a post up obviously. Do not ask me anything else though, because I am so lost at the moment:-) I am told after a few weeks, I'll be a pro! Somehow I am doubting that, since I'm quite the computer challenged person! But I'm up for learning it. Thank goodness for Dorothy holding my hand and walking me through stuff step by step as I wrote this post.
I have the best blog friends!!! It made me feel so loved to get emails and FB posts wondering where I was. You guys made my day yesterday…seriously! My brain was on overload…ok, it still is…so I just had to take my time getting back into it, but I think I am ready to jump in and start learning!!!
It is a good thing I keep things like Oreos, brownies, coffee, and a big tub of Cool Whip on hand at all times to help get me through blog stress!!! Take a look at this brownie would you? You can see why this had to made and eaten while working on the blog move stuff?
LOL! I laugh because really I didn't do much of anything with the move, except find all my log-ins and passwords to sites she needed. Oh yeah, and label 500 posts because I was kind of a dork and didn't do that for each one when I posted them. Lesson learned on that one! In my head that sure sounded like a whole lot more work. Anything to make myself feel better about chowing down on a few of these each day!!
Ok, I realized something things this weekend when I was going through all my old posts. (Things like always add labels or categories so you don't have to do 500 at once.) First of all I realized that some of my old pictures are a hoot! Note to all you newbies…stick with it and always be learning. It is fun to look back and see how much you have grown after a few years. Second thing I realized was that this week marks 4 years of blogging!!! 4 YEARS! Can you believe that??? I can't believe that it has been that long since my very first post that no one, probably not even my family was reading:-)
So, I wanted to do something to celebrate. Now mind you I just remembered like a day ago, so this is just something small but fun to celebrate with you.
I contacted Candiquik and they are donating 4 pounds of chocolate to our winner! 2 pounds of vanilla and 2 pounds of chocolate…just in time for holiday candies and popcorn:-)
And to get you started with the chocolate, I stopped at JoAnn's and picked up 2 of their fun Halloween molds. But that's not all…I found some cute little caldrons to fill with candy. And some orange marshmallow peeps…love that we can eat these at every holiday. And a $20 Starbucks card to satisfy the caffeine monster in you:-)
But that's still not all…
my good blog friend Kara, from Mine For the Making, is also creating a fun Halloween sign for the winner! You also need to head over and check out the cuteness that is her Etsy Shop!!! She is always working on something adorable!
This giveaway ends Oct 27th and is open to US residents only. Sorry!
- Mix the brownies according to the 2 egg directions on the box. Spread 1/2 of the batter in a greased 9×13 pan. Cover the brownie batter with Oreos side by side. Cover the Oreos with the rest of the brownie batter. Set aside.
- In another mixing bowl, beat cream cheese, butter and cornstarch until fluffy. Beat in milk, flour, egg, and coffee extract until smooth. Spoon cheesecake batter on top of the brownie batter. Sprinkle with the mini chocolate chips. Bake at 350* for 35-40 minutes. Cool completely. Refrigerate. Top with Cool Whip before serving. (Mini chocolate chips can be used for eyes)
- Note: You can use regular Oreos in place of the colored ones. Also if you don't like coffee, substitute 1 tsp. vanilla extract.

|Evaluation of Sediment Transport Models and Comparative Application of Two Watershed Models (81 pp, 1.6 MB) (EPA/600/R-03/139) September 2003
Suspended solids and sediments, regarded as the two leading pollutants of our nation's bodies of water, are carriers of various pesticides, radioactive materials, and nutrients. Section 303(d) of the 1972 Clean Water Act requires states, territories, and authorized tribes to identify and list areas of impaired water every two years and to develop Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDLs) for pollutants in the water.
Mathematical models in hydrology, hydrodynamics, and recently, water quality are widely accepted, effective, and powerful tools for TMDL development and for evaluating performances of best management practices (BMPs). The selection of the right model requires a comprehensive knowledge of the capabilities and features of available models. This report provides an overview and evaluation of sediment models and compares two distributed, watershed-scale models by applying them to an experimental watershed. A probabilistic, risk-based mathematical optimization framework is presented and proposed as a strategy, especially when multiple stressors are involved, for obtaining cost-effective, optimal load reductions using BMPs.
The report has two parts. The first part evaluates and summarizes the key features of the most widely cited watershed-scale, hydrodynamic, and water quality models with the emphasis on TMDLs and BMPs. Reviewed models were selected based on minimum criteria. Water quality models, specifically those that can simulate nutrients in the environment, are also considered because transport and fate of sediments and nutrients are intimately related phenomena.
Among the reviewed loading models, SWAT and AGNPS offer the most BMP alternatives at agricultural watersheds.
For urban areas, SWMM is identified as the most suitable loading model; for mixed land uses (i.e., rural and urban) HSPF is the most suitable. These models need to be used with hydrodynamic and water quality models for a complete TMDL analysis and BMP development.
BASINS and MIKE-SHE are comprehensive watershed water quality modeling systems, with varying degrees of complexity.
WMS offers a tractable watershed-modeling platform; if fully developed, it can be used for sediment TMDLs allocation.
Available and potential model linkages between loading, hydrodynamic, and water quality models are also discussed. It is recommended that future model development include more linkages between loading and hydrodynamic and water quality models. It is observed that most physically based models are incapable of generating a complete BMP assessment. It is recommended that future models have the capability of simulating more BMPs.
The second part of the report evaluates, by application to an experimental watershed, two promising distributed watershed-scale sediment models: KINEROS-2 and GSSHA. Sensitivity of KINEROS-2 to model parameters was evaluated within a probabilistic framework using Monte Carlo simulations to identify key model parameters for calibration. It was shown that the order of parameter sensitivities changes with the quantity of interest (e.g., peak flow and total sediment yield). The calibration/verification procedure performed over KINEROS-2 showed that the Manning's roughness and soil erosion parameters demonstrated systematic seasonal variations.
Both models were calibrated and verified, and the results clearly highlight the challenges modelers face when applying complex, distributed watershed models. The results emphasize the importance of using the numerical application of different watershed models as a means of evaluating the models. Future efforts to evaluate hydrologic and water quality models should include actual comparative applications to real case studies.

FRONTIERS IN MATERIALS SCIENCEVINSE COLLOQUIUM SERIESDr. Max LagallyDepartment of Materials Science and EngineeringUniversity of Wisconsin-Madison"Nanoscience and Technology on Silicon: Directed Assembly, Strain Engineering, and Materials Integration"
Abstract. Future generations of micro- and optoelectronic devices will require approaches beyond the conventional in terms of materials fabrication and integration at the nanoscale. From the point of view of technology, great advantage can be gained if it could "all be done on silicon". That is also fortunate from a scientific viewpoint, as Si is the model semiconductor for fundamental studies of surfaces, growth, and electrical properties. In this talk I describe several efforts that use Si to create nanoscale structures and investigate nanoscale properties: as a template for self-organized growth, an integration platform, a mechanical element, and, finally, a semiconductor. 1) Strain driven self-assembly of faceted nanocrystals during semiconductor heteroepitaxy can form quantum dots (QDs) that may be attractive for a range of electronic or optoelectronic devices. I describe a simple process of directed assembly of Ge QDs on Si that also allows us to develop an understanding of the mechanism of directed assembly. 2) Using silicon-on-insulator (SOI) as a template, we discovered that the GE QDs that grow on the thin Si template can act as a nanostressor that distorts the Si layer and causes the oxide underneath to flow. 3) Growth of films on SOI rather than Si also brings with it unique defect generation mechanisms. I will describe dislocation formation using low-energy electron microscopy (LEEM) as the primary tool. 4) Using MEMS techniques, we build a device that can artificially stress a Si membrane and grow on these membranes to investigate the effect of added uniaxial stress on the diffusion, nucleation, and coarsening of nanostructures and films. 5) Using a unique method to place catalyst in specific small spots on a Si surface, we can then grow carbon nanotubes across contacts. Photoconductivity measurements suggest that these nanotubes are phototransistors, also opening the possibility of nanoscale chemical sensing with electronic readout. It really can all be done (well, almost) on Si!
