The mobile Plugin is so awesome ;) i am using it everytime when i am on the train or the bus !
The mobile app (together with rc7) has some minor flaws:
- The sorting of the different data entities is somehow unexpected (first max numbet of actions, avg. number of actions and visitors, unique visitors and the total number of actions/impressions somewhere in the middle)
- the graph of campaign-sources is rotated in zoom-view. I have not tested other graphs.Tested with rc7 (de) and piwik mobile 1.7.0

Well, that didn't take long.

I have attended several performances at the Gallo Centrr for the Arts. All have been outstanding and fairly priced. Great downtown location with several excellent restaurants close-by for dining before or after event.
My daughter and I watched a local production and were very impressed with the overall performance and the venue.
Easy parking, great location, gorgeous venue. Very modern design with reception area on each level. Our seats were 1st row, great seats. Wouldn't hesitate to sit on any swat I'm auditorium. Can't edit to go back!
So I've never seen a performance here before but I've seen the Broadway performance STOMP and I had to travel from Sacramento to see it again. I took my husband who hasn't seen it and we really enjoyed ourselves. The facility looks new and is very open and inviting. Apparently they have 2-3 theaters and can have performances at the... More

We just saw Three Dog Night at the Gallo Center for the Arts. It's a beautiful place -- clean and new. Our seats were great, and it looked to me that all the seats were excellent. Very well done! Before the show, and probably at intermission (we didn't have one, so I can't say for sure), they sell drinks, and... More
This was an excellent one-woman production. The actress was here last year playing Madame Curie and returned to a full and enthusiastic house. Don't miss her if she comes your way.
It's nice to see Modesto be treated to an elegant facility such as Gallo. I've viewed several performances at the Center and have been impressed with it each time!
Gallo Center has a variety of shows throughout the year...everything from YES Company Kids Review (local group) to Dana Carvey to Anthony Bourdain, to Broadway. I saw Rock of Ages there and loved it. They have two theaters and even the larger one seems intimate. Prices are very reasonable and parking is easy. If you happen to be in Modesto,... More

- 1 1 1Cage-free egg white, very lightly whisked
- 1 1/2 1.5 1.5tablespoons TABLESPOON_USVolumeCrystallized sugar
Instructions for Apple Pie Recipe
- For the Crust: Divide the pastry into two parts, one a little larger than the other.
- Wrap the larger piece in plastic wrap and reserve.
- On a lightly floured surface, roll the smaller piece into a round, 1/8 to 1/4 inch thick, large enough to overlap a 10 x 2-inch pie plate.
- Arrange in the pie plate and even with a sharp knife, leaving about a 1/2-inch overhang. (Add the trimmings to the reserved dough).
- Tuck the overhang back under, making a slightly thicker edging. Chill for 30 minutes. If using a glass pie plate, remove from the refrigerator 15 minutes before filling.
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out the reserved piece of dough into a 12-inch square, about 1/4 inch thick.
- Cut out a piece of cardboard, 1/2 inch wide and 10 or 12 inches long. Wrap the strip in plastic wrap and use as a guide.
- With a sharp knife or a pastry cutter, cut the dough into 20 1/2-inch strips. Lay 10 strips vertically on the back of a large baking pan, leave a small space between strips.
- Weave a lattice pattern by placing each of the remaining strips over and under horizontally. (It's easier to weave if the dough is not too firm, but it can't be too soft, either. If it's too soft, refrigerate for a little while and then continue). To weave, turn back every other strip of dough (1, 3, 5, etc.), lay a horizontal strip across, as close to the top as possible, and return the turned-back strips to the original length.
- For the next row, alternate the strips that you turn back (2, 4, 6, etc.) and again place a horizontal strip across, close to the first strip. Repeat this procedure until all the strips are used. Refrigerate just until firm.
- Using a 9-inch cardboard round, a plate, or a pot cover as a guide, cut out a 9-inch circle of latticework and refrigerate on the baking pan until needed. (Excess dough can be wrapped and refrigerated or frozen for future use).
- For the Filling: Peel, core and quarter the apples. Cut into 1/4-inch slices.
- In 2 or 3 large skillets, melt the butter (2 or 3 tablespoons in each skillet, depending upon how many you use) and brown.
- The butter will have a slightly nutty aroma.
- Divide the apples, arrange in the pans, and coat with the butter.
- Sprinkle in the sugar and over medium-high heat, saut� the apples until lightly caramelized and tender, 15 to 20 minutes, turning often so that the apples cook evenly.
- Pour in 1 tablespoon of Calvados and the brandy and cook until the alcohol burns off.
- Pour in the cream, stir to combine. Transfer to a sheet tray, spread to cool.
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Warm the remaining 1/4 cup Calvados. Combine the chopped prunes, apricots, and figs in a small bowl. Pour the Calvados over and let plump. In a large bowl, combine the cooled apples and the plumped dried fruit. Stir in the lemon juice, cinnamon, lemon and orange zests, and nutmeg, and mix well.
- Spoon the filling into the prepared pie plate. Using a wide spatula, carefully transfer the 9-inch latticework circle and arrange on top of the filling. Brush the latticework with egg white and sprinkle with the crystallized sugar.
- Bake 30 minutes, turn the oven down to 350 degrees F. and bake 35 to 40 minutes longer, until the crust is golden brown. Cool on a rack.
Serve warm with scoops of Cinnamon Ice Cream or Vanilla Ice cream and a stick of cinnamon.
If you haven�t tried Calvados before, this might be a good opportunity. It�s the famous apple brandy from Normandy in France and although it�s usually fiery, it has a magical apple flavor that is the perfect partner for this Apple Pie. Pour into a brandy balloon, swirl around using the heat of your hand to warm it a little and release the bouquet. Then sip slowly between bites of the pie.
Note: Crystallized sugar, a coarse sugar with larger granules than granulated sugar is used to sprinkle on certain pastries before baking, for a shinier look. It can be found in specialty food or cake decorating stores. Substitute granulated sugar if crystallized is unavailable.
Though we serve this pie at my restaurants during the holiday season, it is much too good to be confined to such a limited period of time. Try to find Pippin or Granny Smith apples. They retain their shape during the cooking process, but must be saut�ed first to become tender.

GOP gives Bennett job; he wants out
Veteran party boss wants a successor selected quickly
The Daily Briefing
Buckeye Forum Podcast
The Dispatch public affairs team talks politics and tackles state and federal government issues in the Buckeye Forum podcast.
Your Right to Know
The just-elected chairman of the Ohio Republican Party doesn't intend to lead it for long.
Robert T. Bennett said he plans to serve only until a process to name his successor is in place and the 66-member GOP central committee, the party's governing body, names a new chairman.
Meeting in north Columbus yesterday, the committee unanimously elected Bennett to a two-year term. Bennett, 73, who previously had led the party for 21 years, came out of retirement in April to stabilize the party after it was torn apart by Gov. John Kasich's successful coup against former Chairman Kevin DeWine.
Bennett said he didn't know how long it would take for a successor to be chosen, but "I'd rather have it sooner than later."
He said he wants to ensure that a new chairman is seated well before next year's statewide election, when Kasich and four other Republican statewide executive officeholders are on the ballot for second terms.
"I committed to the governor and the other statewides that I would stay around and help a successor," Bennett said.
The party's executive director, Matthew Borges, a close ally of Kasich, said he is interested in the chairmanship. News of Borges' interest drew an attack from the Ohio Democratic Party, which sought to capitalize on a past legal problem.
In 2004, Borges, a political consultant and former chief of staff to then-state Treasurer Joseph T. Deters, pleaded guilty to misdemeanor charges connected to a bribery investigation.
Borges was fined $1,000 after admitting that he funneled contributions to Deters' campaign from donors seeking to do business with the treasurer's office. A Cuyahoga County judge later granted Borges' request to expunge the record of his conviction, and Borges since has said he was the target of a political witch hunt by former Democratic Cuyahoga County Prosecutor Bill Mason.
"Democrats would be thrilled if Kasich had the nerve to anoint a pay-to-play poster boy as the head of the Ohio Republican Party," said Jerid Kurtz, Ohio Democratic spokesman.
Borges said that if he decides to pursue the chairmanship, he is prepared to explain the situation to central committee members and leave the decision in their hands.
Bennett said the party has moved beyond the divisive power struggle of last year and enters 2013 united.
"The party has settled down," he said. "Right now, there are no disagreements in the party. Everyone is on the same page."
But a disagreement did erupt yesterday — in a cordial way — over the election of the state party's vice chairman when neither of the two candidates, Kay Reynolds of Portsmouth and Mary Anne Christie of Cincinnati, received the needed 34 votes to win. After three votes failed to yield a winner, the committee deferred the election for vice chair until its April 12 meeting.
The committee elected Ranae Lentz of Bellefontaine treasurer. Marilyn Ashcraft of Marietta was re-elected party secretary.

Muslim student from UK arrested in North Africa for trying to join jihad terror group
Posted by Robert on December 29, 2012 6:08 AM
Interestingly, he was "detained on the border between Mauritania and Mali as he tried to cross the Sahara on foot to reach the desert stronghold of Al Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb (AQIM)." The American jihadist Rasheed Wilson was [1] heading to Mauritania, and may have been planning to do the same thing.
"British student arrested in North Africa for 'trying to join terror group threatening to take control of entire Sahara,'" from the [2] Daily Mail, December 29 (thanks to David):
A British student is under arrest in North Africa accused of trying to join an Islamic terrorist group threatening to take control over the entire Sahara.Ahmed Shaheen, 26, from London, was detained on the border between Mauritania and Mali as he tried to cross the Sahara on foot to reach the desert stronghold of Al Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb (AQIM).
The Islamic militants have established a brutal regime in the ancient desert city of Timbuktu and introduced Shariah law, ordering death-by-stoning and limb amputations as punishments.
Last night the Foreign Office said it was seeking further information about the whereabouts of the Briton.
A spokesman said: 'We are aware of reports of the detention of a British National in Mauritania and are seeking further information.'
Shaheen, who is described as of Asian origin and wearing a beard, had been staying with a nomad family in the small oasis town of Walata, some 700 miles from the Mauritanian capital of Nouakchott, posing as an expert in traditional communities.
He had attended prayers at the ancient mosque but was reported missing when he disappeared, after saying he planned to 'walk to across the desert to Timbuktu'.
He was stopped by nomad tribesmen some 12 miles into the sand on Christmas Day and taken to security services operating in the border area who arrested him.
Shaheen is alleged to have told the Mauritanian Police he was trying to reach Timbuktu, in Mali, on foot, to join the AQIM jihadist struggle....

Look what came in the mail yesterday
I still have a bag of Chocolate left, but I had some credits that I needed to use on OpenSky, so I figured I'd buy some Vanilla.
It tastes better in certain recipes such as pina colada smoothies, warm vanilla protein oats, juicing, or protein pancakes.
- 1/4 cup eggwhites
- 1 scoop protein powder
- 2 Tbsp almond milk (or skim)
- 1 Tbsp ground flax
- 1/2 mashed banana
- cinnamon.
Since it's such a rainy, clammy morning, I craved a smoothie for breakfast.
- 1 scoop Sunwarrior Vanilla
- 1 big handful of raw spinach
- 1/2 frozen banana
- 1/2 cup frozen mixed berries
- 1 Tbsp ground flax
- water and ice
- 1/2 cup Kashi sprinkled on top
And of course, some black coffee with Stevia.
Quite the hot and cold breakfast I've got going on here.
Today's Workout
10 minute warm up: Stair Climber
- 3 sets Bicep Curls: 10 half way up, 10 mid-point to shoulder, 10 complete curls
- 3 sets of 12 Hammer Curls
- 3 sets of 8 (per side) Walking Plank
- 3 sets of 15 Tricep Kickbacks
- 3 sets 15 Overhead Tricep Extension
- 3 sets of 10 Diamond Tricep Push ups
Cardio: 20 minute HIIT on the Treadmill
- 20 second fast jog
- 40 second sprint
- 2 min recovery
Abs: Two, 1 minute Planks
Post Workout snack
- Greek Yogurt
- 1/2 cup cooked brown rice
- blueberries and cinnamon
Such a good combo
So..I've been feeling very thankful lately; Thankful for my health, my family, my friends, and everyday experiences that I sometimes take for granted.
When we focus so much on the negatives in our life, we tend to miss all of the positives surrounding us.
If you find yourself dwelling on a certain situation today, twist it into a positive and try to make it into something good.
Remember that there is always a light at the end of a tunnel, a lesson learned through failure, it could always be worse, and with every bad, comes a good.
Have a good day xoxo

Papa once said, "Isn't when you love someone, your happiness is to be together? Having fun alone is not that appealing anymore. Your happiness is when you can share the fun with him."
The Alchemy of Happiness

The doctor will say, "This is a case of melancholy, and requires such and such prescription.
The physicist will say, "This is a dryness of the brain caused by hot weather and cannot be relieved till the air becomes moist."
The astrologer will attribute it to some particular conjunction or opposition of planets.
"Thus far their wisdom reaches," says the Koran.
It does not occur to them that what has really happened is this: that the Almighty has a concern for the welfare of that man, and has therefore commanded His servants, the planets or the elements, to produce such a condition in him that he may turn away from the world to his Maker.
The knowledge of this fact is a lustrous pearl from the ocean of inspirational knowledge, to which all other forms of knowldge are as islands in the sea.
~ Imam Al-Ghazali

Last week New Look announced a 79% increase in online sales in the three months leading up to June.
Ecommerce currently accounts for 10% of New Look's overall revenue, but that figure could well increase if online sales continue to show such strong growth.
The increase in online sales is attributed to a number of factors, including a revamped website, upgrades to its iPhone app and an expanded click-and-collect service.
Such a massive boost in sales is obviously worth investigating, so here's a roundup of some of the factors that New Look gets right on its desktop and mobile platforms. And I've also flagged up a few areas that could potentially be improved on.

OK, I have to admit they are not strictly secret like so called Easter Eggs, features hidden in widely used software, which the programmers think are great fun but which some of us think are a waste of our computing resources.
One notorious example was the Flight Simulator built into Excel97. Microsoft apparently banned the practice in later years as part of its trustworthy and openness initiative but they are still quite common.
No, I am talking about very useful features, which many people do not seem to know and which do not appear to be widely publicised.

In the heady and fast-paced world of online marketing, we're often told that achieving social media awareness is the 'promised land' - we dream of things 'going viral', watching enviously as the likes of Gangnam Style rocket up the YouTube charts and wondering why the stuff we create for our clients don't achieve the same level of awareness.
Achieving that nirvana of mass social awareness can completely revolutionise your fortunes. Fine, you might have optimised your PPC to within an inch of its life, you've got top SEO positions and your affiliate campaign is an award winner.
You might even have a few glossy-looking awards for your expensive TV campaigns on the office mantle piece. But underneath it all, you know that the level of awareness of your product can make or break you.

With mobile commerce continuing to gather pace through the performance channel, it has been interesting to look back across the past few weeks to analyse the role mobile played over the Easter bank holiday.
With our March stats indicating that traffic through mobile devices reached 21.1% while sales were at 14.2%, it was interesting to see the impact of a long weekend on mobile usage.
We have traditionally seen that consumers turn to mobile devices at weekends. This is not particularly surprising when we consider that office workers step away from their desktops and instead use mobile devices to access the internet.

My iPhone is the least valuable thing I carry. But I didn't realise that until my iPhone was stolen (pick-pocketed in Barcelona).
The thief didn't get my keys, passport or wallet. If he had taken any of those items then I would have been unable to start my car, unable to leave Spain, or unable to pay my hotel bill.
Instead, he stole my iPhone4, which basically meant I couldn't call, email or tweet. Within three days of the theft I was using a replacement iPhone5 (free upgrade from O2), and all my family photos & apps were restored from an iTunes back-up.

For many years since its release, the Android OS has been behaving like a teenager in the grip of raging hormones. Growth has been nothing short of explosive and the changes have been sweeping and profound.
With the release of Ice-Cream Sandwich OS, the UI standards and design elements have changed dramatically and the platform has really matured and even stabilized somewhat.
Nevertheless, the OS has retained it's rebellious hacker DNA with unique features that are authentically Android.

Love mobile? Love your apps? On the other with Windows 8 hitting the scene, it looks like apps will be more popular than ever. But is it the way to go?
The average smart phone user has only 40 apps on their phone with a great precentage of them leaning toward a utility function. So what would the advantage be for your company to go into the app space. If you aren't there already, should you still jump in?

There is no escaping the fact that mobile commerce has been experiencing considerable growth. Recent research from Deloitte suggested that mobile devices would influence £3.5bn of retail sales this Christmas.
As well as understanding the anticipated growth of m-commerce, it is also important to recognise the devices that are fuelling this growth.
With targeting capabilities evolving, it is possible to segment audiences based on the device they are visiting through and advertisers are able to capitalise on this through targeted promotions.

Alfred Productivity Tips: Using custom searches
Fancy becoming a productivity ninja with Alfred? Some might say that calling yourself a "ninja" is cliché but the ninja is efficient, stealthy and a master of his tools, just as you can be with Alfred. Besides, I've been gagging for an excuse to post this awesome Lego ninja picture so bear with me, alright? ;) To help you discover some of the more advanced features, I've put together this mini series to introduce some of the power user functionality you may not have used before.
First, use the web searches
Before jumping into Custom Searches, have a look at the dozens of web searches in the preferences. We've included a stack of standard searches you're likely to want to use. Simply type the keyword followed by your search term.
Create your own custom web searches
There are no doubt websites you want to search that we haven't included. In that case, it's time to create your own! The key to creating custom web search is to work out the search URL for that site. Simply do a search and replace the search term with {query} like so:
You can then use the searches to do super useful stuff:
- Search Apple Developer documentation: http://developer.apple.com/search/index.php?Search={query}
- Track packages from various shipping companies: See Alfred Tips for multiple query options
- Search Ruby on Rails API: http://apidock.com/rails/search?query={query}
And much more...
Searching apps on your Mac
There's more than one flavour of custom searches; you can also create them for applications on your Mac. Not all apps offer an application URI so it's worth digging around or asking the developer. Here are a few of our favourite ones:
- Spotify: spotify:search:{query}
- App Store: itunes://ax.search.itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZSearch.woa/wa/search?term={query}
- Facetime: facetime://{query}
A custom search without a query
Did you know that your custom "searches" can in fact not be searches at all? Launch any website with a custom keyword by saving it in Alfred's custom searches.
- I keep my stress levels low with the "lolz" keyword: http://icanhascheezburger.com/?random
- And read my favourite daily web comic with a "qc" custom search: http://questionablecontent.net
Check out Anna's Tumblr for regular tips on using Alfred and discover many more custom search ideas on Alfred fan Olivier Guerriat's alfredtips.com.
Share your searches
As Jack Johnson says, "it's always more fun to share with everyone..." so swap custom searches with friends. Use the copy icon to copy the custom search query and click on any special URL starting with alfredapp:// to import one to your own custom searches.
Chime in in the comments if you've become a black belt of productivity and want to share your own tips. We'll feature some of the best ones in future posts!
Next time: Tweaking your search results to show just what you want

We've moved beyond John Locke as our social model to the attitude of Marie Antoinette. The White House acts as though there's not a massive job problem.
The White House will not insist that an emerging budget deal include an extension of the unemployment benefits program set to expire at the end of the year, press secretary Jay Carney said on Friday. Roll Call Dec 6
The White House wants the unemployed to know that it feels their pain:
[White House Press Secretary] Carney said that it would be "terrible to tell more than a million families across the country just a few days after Christmas that they're out of benefits," but that the White House was agnostic on how the extension happened. Roll Call Dec 6
Terrible to tell millions "a few days after Christmas" that they're totally screwed, forgotten, cast aside, left without help… Actually, Mr. Carney should consider this. If it's "terrible" to tell people this, just imagine how terrible it is to live it. But Carney and the others inside the Beltway don't need to worry. They are supported by the socialism for the Mandarin class…guaranteed income no matter how badly you behave.
"The vehicle that they use to do that is less important than the fact that they do it," Carney said. Roll Call Dec 6

The betting menu must change like the rest of the Nation.
OK people
Mitch said on another thread, with HP closing this maybe the beginning of the end of racing here in California. I say far from it, however the betting menu must change to get back the outer state player who likes to play the 1 DD, the 50 cent Pick 3 , or a 50 cent Tri.
People there are thousand and thousand of people that go everyday to the track to play such bets as these, we here might play more among us, but there are thousands of players that play on the the East Coast or Kentucky or Fla , go to the track to play go to play these types of bets. (They are on a limited income or retired and hang out there, we all have seen people like this.)
These type of bet add up real fast. Hundred of thousand of dollars each race going into the pool and California gets nothing, except to book the bet and receive peanuts for handling it. The real money comes in placing the bet at the home track or they place it on line through their ADW.
So I say to California, get with the times and lets move ahead.
As to the take out, these players don't care, maybe the Pick 6 players do, but I am not taking about the Pick 6 player , because they're in their own betting world when it comes this type of bet. So lets not discuss the Pick 6, just the other ones I mention above .
Any comments that California has to go with the rest of the nation on these types of bets.

House in Bridgewater, a photo by midgefrazel on Flickr.
Olive Tree Genealogy Blog's Lorine has great blog post starter ideas and this week sounded like something I should work on.
This blog will serve as a shared resource for those who are interested in gravestone photography, genealogy and family history. Most of the photographs will be of my ancestors or of cemeteries I am photographing, transcribing and researching. [Charter member of The Association of Graveyard Rabbits.]
Oh, I can relate to this so much! I loved reading about the journey you took through time, if not houses, and the fact that you are now in a place you are near your daughter. Thank you for writing this post and reminding me that change is inevitable, because NOW is that time for me and my hubby whether I'm ready or not!
Love this story and all your others. In my next life I want to come back as Midge Frazel.

E-records linked to fewer malpractice claims
U.S.News & World Report, June 26, 2012
Malpractice claims dipped dramatically among Massachusetts physicians after they began using electronic medical records, according to new research, although it's not clear whether the record-keeping was connected to the decline in claims. Despite its limitations, however, the research provides more evidence that electronic health records "improve quality and safety and, as a result, prevent adverse events and reduce the risk of malpractice claims," said study co-author Dr. Steven Simon, an associate professor with Harvard Medical School and an internist with VA Boston Healthcare System.

Many people think we can't get sick from our pets, but new studies are showing that people can actually contract some pretty dangerous infections from pet food. Simply feeding your pet in your kitchen could put you or your family at risk.
Randy Neppl's one and a half year old son, Haught, is at the age when he's crawling all over the house, including in the kitchen, where the family's yellow lab, buttercup, also has his meals.
"Haught is on the floor all the time," says Neppl.
"To be honest, when he started crawling, his favorite toy was the dog bowl and he would throw it everywhere," says Neppl.
What Neppl didn't realize, was that she was putting her son at risk of getting sick from dangerous bacteria like salmonella that could be lurking in some pet foods.
"You're dealing with an animal product. Most of the food is cooked and that will destroy the salmonella, but if anything is added after the cooking process, like a flavoring than that can increase the chance of a salmonella contamination," explains Ashley Hughes, a veterinarian.
In the last two months alone, the FDA has reported dozens of pet food recalls, most of which were due to possible salmonella contamination. Since October 2011, a total of 15 people have been affected by salmonella linked to dog food. According to the CDC, five of those people were hospitalized.
"If the food were contaminated, and you were to touch it and not wash your hands and get it into your system, then yeah, you could contract it," says Hughes.
But, most of us feed our dogs or cats right in our own kitchen, from the kitchen counter with the utensils, etc.
"There was a recent study that came out that found that people who fed their dogs or cats in their kitchen were four times more likely to contract a bacterial infection from their food," says Hughes.
So, your first line of defense is not feeding your pet in the kitchen, and use specific utensils just for pet food.
"We've been trying to take as many precautions as we can," says Neppl.
Once Neppl learned about the potential health problems with contaminated dog food, she's made some changes in her home.
She puts Buttercup's bowl away after he eats, doesn't allow her son to feed the dog anymore, and is diligent about washing her hands after preparing the pet food.
"I think every mother gets pretty concerned about anything that can potentially harm their children," says Neppl.
After learning that commercially prepared pet foods can contain bacteria, some people might think, "I'll make my own pet food." But, veterinarians warn against doing that. It could actually harm your animals because store-bought versions are fortified with special nutrients for dogs and cats.

Dallas Fish Market
Online Reservations
Nice service and lots of good menu items to choose from. We came for restaurant week and enjoyed some of their menu items. The Thai mussel soup and the carpaccio of yellow fin tuna nicoise were both quite flavorful. The soup may have had just a tad too much coconut milk but was still good overall. We also enjoyed the pan roasted striped bass as well as the grilled hake. Both fish entrees were cooked and presented perfectly. Dessert was too small but still delicious. Only the chocolate terrine was a little plain but the mascarpone figs were amazing! We saw some tables around us order off their original menu and they looked delicious as well so we'll definitely be back to try some more.
We had a perfect anniversary dinner with friends at the Dallas Fish Market. The atmosphere was perfect, and both the food and service were superb as well. We had many dishes at the table and everyone was pleased with their selection -- from the complimentary lobster corn dogs and champagne to start to the sushi, lobster/mozarella salad, seabass, scallops, redfish and tuna to the peanut butter torte with chocolate ice cream, creme brulee and profiteroles to finish, all of it was outstanding. We will go there again for sure!
From the moment they set down the lobster corn dog amuse bouche, through the beautiful extra course sushi roll and the attentive service, we were having a great dining experience. Although entree reviews were mixed, they were mostly positive to very positive and desserts would have picked up the difference except they began closing the restaurant around us. We were not lingering, but waiting for our wine and dessert as they cleared the tables around us and carried out the trash. This would not have been a problem except it ended with such a clatter of dishes and noise it virtually ruined the rest of our dining experience. It was an unfortunate way to end what would have been an all around positive evening.
The food was phenomenal, with complimentary Lobster Lollipops in between apps and the main course. Chocolate Terrine was addictive. Would highly recommend.
The service was good. The ambiance was nice. It was a little early in the evening, so it was somewhat quiet. The meal was excellent. I will definitely go here again.
The service was great and the food was excellent. Perfect location for a stroll after dinner.
The food is very good and fresh and the service was spot on but the decor was confusing and ugly. Street lights glare onto your table and the interior lighting is too bright. Colors and fixtures do not match and what is more cliché than a wall of on end wine bottles?
My husband and i really enjoyed the services and planning to come back.
This place was amazing! The ambience was great. Our waiter was great, he had a wonderful attitude and was always coming to check up on us. The place was clean, quiet, romantic, and the scenery was amazing. I have some food allergies and the chef was willing to accommodate us and even sent us some special goodies. The food was delicious. It had wonderful flavor and presentation. I love a good dinner and good service. Dallas Fish Market has it all! They even ended the night with some delicious green apple cotton candy. This place is great for a nice romantic dinner or a group dinner for a special occasion. I forgot to mention the best part, THE TRUFFLE FRIES ARE AMAZING!
My co-worker and friend Diana, treated me to dinner for my birthday. I am not sure why this place was not crowded because the food was fabulous, the atmosphere is beautiful and the service was spot on! It was actually ON my birthday and the valet even sang Happy Birthday to me;-D
The seafood selection was very diverse. Dishes were prepared with a pleasant twist, like swordfish with curry and jasmine rice. The seabass was prepared perfectly, tender and sweet. The bacon and tomato mac and cheese was a wonderful and comforting side dish......it was great leftover and warmed the next day!
Located right downtown, great sushi, and I really like the ambience. Love those jalapeno cheese biscuits! Great for lunch, have a nice powerlunch at $15, try the catfish and cheesy grits!
My wife and I went to the Dallas Fish market for our anniversary. Everything was perfect....we were warmly welcomed in to the restaurant...given a great table. Our server was fantastic...the food was great...we were given celebratory champagne courtesy of the manager, as well as complementary desserts to recognize our anniversary. I have nothing bad to say about this experience....everything was perfect!
It was a birthday celebration and every one was treated royally.
Great service, food, atmosphere and presentation. Terrific sushi.
Me and my wife attended here for our anniversary and I will say it was everything that I imagined and more. The waiters were knowledgeable and accommodating. My wife and I both tried sushi for the first time and it was excellent! We also had a lobster bisk which was bar none. I recommend the restaurant to first timers and anyone looking for a great downtown location and great food. Thank you Dallas fish market!
DFM was pretty spectacular -- from the amuse (a perfect lobster "lollipop") to the salad (lobster, tomato and mozzarella that redefined the caprese) to the sublime tuna and swordfish entrees. And the cheese/dill biscuits dipped in a butter-maple mix? Wow. Went here a year ago, and it was good. This time? Downright great
We had a wonderful meal. We were seated immediately and the staff took excellent care of us. David, our waiter, was personable as well as knowledgeable about the menu. Our dinners arrived at precisely the right time; we didn't feel rushed and we weren't waiting for it to arrive. We were very impressed with how the entire staff worked efficiently together to take care of the full restaurant. We would definitely recommend this restaurant.
I am glad we took a chance at this gem after seeing the 3 and 4 star ratings on Yelp. The waiter was exceptionally knowledgable and attentive (but not in a bothersome way). The salmon sashimi was OUTSTANDING!! The rest of our meal was also quite good as well. Would highly recommend. Also just a walk across the street from the Magnolia Hotel, which was a bonus!
Thoroughly enjoyed the meal. Food (we all had fish) was excellent. Service was good. The only issue we had was the length of time between appetizer and entree was long. It didn't spoil the meal but was noticeable. I did note this in the review card at the end of the meal and the manager came out to apologize - a nice touch. Would go back.
We tried a little bit of everything and it was all delicious. The sea bass, scallops, and beef tenderloin were all cooked perfectly and the sushi and lobster bisque were amazing! Can't wait to go back!
...and I'm glad I did! The service was exceptional and so was the food. The restaurant is a bit loud, but not unbearably. I HIGHLY recommend the marscapone figs for dessert. It's a different dish than on normal restaurant dessert menus and totally worth it. This restaurant would be great for a variety of occasions. I was there for a business dinner but can also see the ambiance fitting a small group, date night, or other dining occasion.
Nice place to eat and hold a conversation. They were out of a couple menu items but the Halibut was very good. Service was attentive to get my order but scarce afterwards. Small nits. Overall very good dining experience.
This was a top favorite in Dallas. The food was amazing, the service was great. All around a wonderful experience. I highly recommend the lobster and mozzarella. It was amazing... just the right amount of everything including a dash of pesto, olive oil, seasoned tomatoes. The fresh bread they give you is a sharp cheddar bisquit with sea salted butter and syrup. The fish was incredible. It had a mushroom coating and served with truffle infused mashed potatoes. I can't say enough about the food. It was incredible.
My wife and I love trying new places to eat each time we go out. The Dallas Fish Market was a great treat. The food was as beautiful as it was good! We had wonderful service from the second we step foot in the door. My wife and I are big foodies and would highly recommend this place to any fish lover!
Interesting Downtown location. Each course was unique. The calamari is a must. Sushi was well constructed and so fresh. The Lobster Special if available cannot be missed. Wine list is extensive and well priced. A wonderful fresh Dallas dining experience. I would highly recommend it as a top seafood pick in town.
My manager had come down from Sacramento. I took him out for dinner. We really liked the wine and food. It was a good experience overall.. thanks
Bar was hopping and noisy but the dining area was appropriately soundproofed from the bar. Food was delicious, server was attentive and did a good job of explaining menu items, etc. Fun part of downtown with a lot going on in the neighborhood on Friday night. Overall a very enjoyable experience!
Took a group of 7 business associates for dinner. Very good experience. Food was great. Service was great. A very pleasant experience.
Good fish in Dallas is hard to find this a very good. Give it a try
We went for an early dinner (5:30) before a ballet. It was perfectly quiet for a delightful conversation. I don't know if the noise level increases later in the evening. The waiter was great. Attentive when we needed it but not interrupting us. Waiter and kitchen took special care regarding food allergies. Salad, ahi tuna starter, sea bass, scallops, and filet were all superb. We will be going back.
This was a last minute reservation, our first time in Dallas celebrating our anniversary. The service, food, ambience was superb! The decoration is modern and neat. Guests are welcome with a glass of champagne, then a little yummy bite as appetizer, a fresh biscuit with the meal and even cotton candy at the end just for the sweets! I definitely recommend this restaurant, for a special occasion is superb.
Tremendous service! Our waitress was amazing and receptive to our needs for a quick dinner service.
The restaurant is very pleasant and the service was excellent. The swordfish was outstanding. The au poivre ahi tuna was asked to be without pepper and for the most part the peppercorns were removed from the prior prep but the fish was still prepared with ground pepper even when it was asked to be totally without pepper of any type. The couscous had peppercorns in it and that spoiled the dish when one does not want ANY pepper. The wait staff should have said the couscous is prepped with peppercorns and offered some other starch sans pepper. For that, the overall rating was reduced.
I am a regular since i live around the corner. But even if it wasn't so close I would still go. The Sea Bass is wonderful and they have the best beet salad in town. Service is always great.
from the first sip of complimentary Champaign and appetizer to the incredible biscuits t the glorious menu, I loved every mouthful
This was the first time our group was in Dallas for a tradeshow. I selected the restaurant in advance to our arrival based upon reviews on TripAdvisor. The food was superb! Unique, tasty, well-presented. The service was exceptional with great attention to detail. Our water glasses were never empty. The knives were positioned on the table in a very engaging way. The server always made sure our wine glasses were refilled at the appropriate time. The complementary Lobster Lollipop appetizer was "to die for!" The server's suggestion for wine for our group of 8 was perfect. I will definitely return to the Dallas Fish Market the next time I am in town.
Well rounded menu and great ambience for diners who enjoy good food and drink. Decent wine list.
The food, service and ambiance were all great. I had the Ginger, Miso, White Soy Marinated Swordfish for my entree and it was delicious. We had the Sashimi Platter which was also very good. Great place to go for any occasion.
The food was very fresh and perfectly cooked, would go back again and again.
Took friend to dinner and was amazing. Great servie and food.
A bit disappointed after walking 6+ blocks at the interior of the restaurant. Food great. Service wonderful . We'll be back.
The service and the food were fantastic. I highly recommend the Dallas Fish Market.
I was dining with several friends last week. I arrived early and asked to sit at the bar to wait on my friends. I was told the bar was busy, so I could go to my table - it was available. I found out shortly that there was a happy hour, but it was only available at the bar. I asked to move back to the bar, but was informed of the "rules" by the manager. He told me that HH was only available in the bar. I asked to moved there. He said it was crowded, and that he would "over-ride" their computer system and give me HH prices at my table. While this all sounds nice, it made me very uncomfortable having this conversation in front of other tables. I sounded CHEAP. Ultimately I did get up and move to the bar to wait on my other guests.
The service was top notch in every way. There were neat little extras that the server would bring out. The cotton candy at the end was a nice touch. Highly recommended!
We saw sushi on the online menu and since we only had an hour we stopped in. We were under-dressed and fervently wished we had more time to try some of the amazing food on the menu - The specials sounded so good! We tried 4 appetizers - the Snap Pea Salad and the Wild Salmon Crudo were both AMAZING. Service was attentive and the restaurant is really beautiful.
We prefer fish to steak, so it was a wonderful restaurant for us. We hope visiting again.
Entire evening was wonderful, from the greeting by staff, to complimentary champagne. Lobster bisque was fantastic as was the swordfish. Wife ordered sea bass and was prepared perfectly. Thanks for a great evening. We will return if ever in the area.
Excellent experience. The waiter was very polite and attentive. As soon as we were done w/ one course the next course was ready. All courses were delicious and plated beautifully.
they could not have been more gracious in spirit and service - the food, the wine - everything was perfect

As chairman of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation during the financial crisis, Sheila Bair earned both fans and foes for her stance against big banks and her early warnings about the housing bubble. No longer in government, Bair remains a voice for reform in the industry. In Bull By the Horns: Fighting to Save Main Street From Wall Street and Wall Street From Itself, the former regulator describes the financial crisis and its aftermath as she saw it. She also outlines her prescriptions for reform, which include breaking up the megabanks, raising capital requirements, and abolishing the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency. Bair recently spoke with U.S. News about her objections to bank bailouts, who she thinks is responsible for the financial crisis, and how America can avoid another downturn. Excerpts:
What did you hope to accomplish with this book?
The crisis was part of history. A lot of things had been written, some of them particularly inaccurate when it came to the FDIC's role, so I wanted to set the record straight and make sure people understood just how important the agency was to making sure Main Street families—that their money was saved and that they never had to worry about that, and we were successful with that. I think that's a tremendous accomplishment given everything that was going on. I wanted people to understand that there were major policy disputes about some of the approaches we took. I think that's important to know going forward because we don't ever want to do bailouts again. I also want to elicit greater public support in the cause of reform.

What's inaccurate about the portrayal of the FDIC's role?
There was an overarching accusation that we were too focused on the FDIC and not enough about system stability, and that's just nonsense. The FDIC was at the center of system stability. We had to make sure the FDIC had enough resources to protect insured depositors; that was our central role and one we did very well. I think also there were attacks on me about being difficult and not a team player, misleading things about what was going on with Wachovia. Those are all factual inaccuracies.
Who and what caused the economic crisis?
Greed and shortsightedness were the two overarching causes. I think the securitization market fed all these unaffordable mortgages that enabled originators to escape any accountability or responsibility. If the mortgage later turned sour it was all being passed off to investors, and then that problem was compounded by ratings agencies handing out AAA ratings on securitizations that were backed by poor-quality mortgages. All these trillions of dollars in derivatives that were written based on the performance of the mortgages magnified the losses but they also, I think, gave investors a false sense of security. So investors, instead of doing their own due diligence, were happy to get the fat returns off of these subprime mortgages. The banks took a lot of risk on these mortgages and mortgage-based securities products and they did not have enough capital if those risks turned bad, which they did.
[See a collection of political cartoons on the economy.]
What responsibility do regulators bear?
Regulators are not in charge of running banks for managers. The managers, the executives of the board, ultimately bear responsibility for this. That said, there were a lot of regulatory failures here. The Fed had the power to set mortgage lending standards for all mortgage originators, bank and nonbank. We did have some mortgage lending standards that applied to insured banks but we didn't for originators outside of insured banks. The Fed had the authority to do that; they just flat out didn't. Congress bears some responsibility for this for passing a law that barred any market regulation of derivatives.

In your book, you're pretty critical of the bank bailouts.
We have a market-based economy. Do you get bailed out if you get in trouble with your mortgage? No. You file for bankruptcy. The government doesn't bail you out. The small businesses don't get bailed out. When people have business models where the market assumes that the government is always going to step in, it creates incentives to take risks because the people who are running those institutions know that they'll get all the benefit of the upside and then they can put the downside on the government.
