Just so you know, I was pathetic about taking pictures on my vacation. Starting tomorrow I'll start to post a few, and I'm sending e-mail requests to other people to share their pictures with me,...so if they get around to it, I'll share with you as well.
I fell asleep tonight around nine and woke up after midnight with stinging pink eyes, so slept a bit more until after 2:00am. Then I went to meet my friends and bestow gifts upon them. They seemed pleased, which pleased me.
My first four days in Canada were spent in Niagara Falls (which I affectionately call Viagara Balls) at my mother's house and I SHOPPED! But I was selfish, and dropped about a thousand dollars on me and me alone. With no new clothes in two and a half years, I was overdue. My favourite purchase was a wool and sheepskin coat for winter. I want it to be winter now so I can wear it! Otherwise I have to take all four pairs of jeans in to be tapered and taken in. Korean tailors are EXCELLENT and I urge everyone in Korea wearing ill-fitting clothes to visit their local tailor and have everything custom-fit for absolutely minimal charge.
Other than those first four days, though, I had no time for shopping. I was at my family's cottage for 12 days. It's in Muskoka, for those of you who know where that is. Let's just call it "Heaven" for simplicity's sake.
I'll tell you more so soon, but right now I'm thinking about souvenirs. All my students wanted one, and I placated them with an "amado" (maybe) so they wouldn't bug me. But alas- I have nothing to give them. I soon figured out that even if I shopped at the dollar store, buying a little gift for everyone was going to cost me over a hundred bucks and take up precious suitcase space. So tough. As far as I'm concerned, I'M their present.
I started thinking, back in Canada, what I had of value in Korea. Cat. Degree and Transcripts. Ummmmm. A handful of friends. I considered not coming back. I got to thinking how I shouldered this trip out of my own pocket and my boss has gotten away with not paying outgoing or incoming teacher air fare for 2 years now. Plus the guilt trip I had before leaving was so crappy. I really didn't want to buy gifts for my co-workers. When I left Elizabeth wasn't even speaking to me (and likewise) so it seems stupid to give her a present.
Back with my friends in Canada, I contemplated how easy things were with them. I could speak my mind freely without fear of judgment or argument. My friends could say what they wanted, give me the finger, tell me to "shut the fuck up," and it was all taken in stride with good humour. Come backs. Yo' mamma. But that's not the case here. Working with my co-workers has been DIFFICULT, and my vacation home hasn't re-fuelled and re-freshed me. It's made utterly apparent what a challenge it's been, and I'm TIRED.
I gave in and bought them gifts. Maple tea and ice-wine. Lovely.
But I now know if I make it the last 10 months of my contract here, I'm quite the champion. We'll see.
For now, Vive le Vacation.

Application store analyst company Distimo says Google's Android Market has overtaken the Apple App Store when it comes to free applications. It's calculated that Android currently has 134,342 free applications while the Apple App Store has 121,845 free applications for iPhones.
Distimo says the Android Market will become the world's largest app store (in terms of the number of applications) in around five months if all application stores maintain their current growth rate. Apple's App Store is expected to hold second place, with the new Windows Phone 7 Marketplace moving into third place by overtaking BlackBerry App World and Nokia's Ovi Store.

These tender cupcakes are topped with a rich truffle frosting, so chocolate lovers can have their cake and chocolate, too.–Michael Recchiuti and Fran Gage
LC Black and White Note
These white cupcakes smothered with a rich ganache frosting are sorta the cake lovers' equivalent of the black and white cookie from New York. Part black. Part white. Lovely through and through.
White Cupcakes with Truffle Cream Topping Recipe
- Quick Glance
- Makes 12 cupcakes
- For the cupcakes
- 1 1/2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 cup crème fraîche, at room temperature
- 2 extra large eggs, at room temperature
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, preferably Madagascar Bourbon
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter (ideally containing 82% butterfat), at room temperature
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- For the topping
- 8 ounces 65% dark chocolate, coarsely chopped
- 2/3 cup heavy whipping cream
- 2/3 cup plus 2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter (ideally containing 82% butterfat), very soft (75°F or 24°C)
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract, preferably Madagascar Bourbon
- Make the cupcakes
- 1. Preheat the oven to 325°F (160°C) and adjust the oven rack to the center position. Line 12 standard muffin cups (2 1/2 inches top diameter and 1 1/4 inches deep) with paper liners.
- 2. Sift the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together into a medium bowl.
- 3. Combine the crème fraîche, eggs, and vanilla extract in a medium bowl and whisk by hand until well combined.
- 4. Put the butter in the bowl of a stand mixer fit with the paddle attachment. Beat on medium speed until the butter is creamy. Add the granulated sugar and beat until fluffy and pale. Switch the mixer to low speed and add the flour mixture in 3 additions, alternating with the egg mixture in 2 additions.
- 5. Using a spoon, divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups, filling them about 2/3 full.
- 6. Bake until the cupcakes are puffed, lightly browned, slightly cracked on top, and a skewer inserted into the center of one comes out clean, 15 to 20 minutes. Place the pan on a wire rack and let the cupcakes cool completely.
- 7. Carefully remove the cupcakes and their paper liners from the muffin cups.
- Make the frosting
- 8. Put the chocolate in a medium bowl.
- 9. Dump the cream and confectioners' sugar in a small saucepan and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Cook at a gentle simmer for 1 minute and then remove the pan from the heat. Immediately pour the hot cream mixture over the chocolate and let it set for 30 seconds or so. Then whisk the mixture by hand just until the chocolate melts. Then whisk in the butter until combined. And then whisk in the vanilla extract. Pour the mixture into a bowl, cover with plastic wrap so that the wrap is touching the surface, and refrigerate until the frosting is 70°F (21°C). This will probably take 30 to 40 minutes, but check after 20 minutes.
- 10. When the cream is at the correct temperature, put it in the bowl of the stand mixer fitted with the whip attachment. Beat on high speed until the mixture is lighter in color and less dense.
- 11. Put the topping into a pastry bag fitted with a 3/8-inch star tip. Pipe a swirl on the top center of each cupcake, distributing the topping evenly among them.
- 12. Store in a cool place until serving. Like our other cupcakes, these are best when served the same day they are made.

The cake is tender and absolutely delicious. Aside from the creme fraiche, it doesn't require anything special and comes together quickly. (I've sometimes successfully substituted yogurt or sour cream for the creme fraiche, but this will give the resulting cake a slightly different flavor.) The topping, on the other hand, is a bit more involved. Honestly, you can just take a simple ganache (equal parts chocolate and cream) and whip it to achieve similar results. The confectioners' sugar makes the basic mixture look incredibly lumpy and the added butter makes it look oily. However, everything does come together after whipping. I don't really think it's necessary to put the ganache frosting in the fridge. Instead, you can just let it cool on the counter and then whip it when it's cooled to warm room temperature.

A vote is expected in the Indiana Senate that could determine the future of the proposed coal gasification plant in Spencer County.
A lot of natural gas customers will be watching this vote Thursday. That vote over this senate bill 510 could actually kill the Rockport deal.
If the state can sell natural gas from the plant on the open market and receive a profit, natural gas customers in Indiana would receive a discount on their bills.
Senate bill 510 requires those reimbursements come every three years rather than in 30 years when the plant's contract with the state would end.
If the state ends up losing money, it would then be up to gas customers to make up the difference.
Rockport's mayor has said Leucadia National, the company that is financing the project, is only willing to operate under the state's 30 year contract.
If senate bill 510 is passed, Leucadia could end the $2.5 billion deal.
Other groups that will be watching this vote Thursday is Vectren and other utility companies. Vecten also provides natural gas and opposes the Rockport project.
We'll have the latest on this vote on Thursday.

Carnival Game Scams
Did you know that you may have once been "marked" by a carny and have fallen victim to carnival game scams. Its true. One of the oldest carnival game tricks in the book to the carnival game operators used to tell their other carny friends that you were a "sucker" was to mark you. They would do this by placing chalk on their hand and patting your back while telling you that you will do better next time. If the next game host sees the chalk, he knows that you are a "sucker" [meaning you are an easy target to rip off and that you have money to spend].
In order to avoid being marked as a sucker and losing your money to carnival game scams. All you need to do is review the below list of carny scams and learn the tricks. You will never look at the carnival the same way again.
The Hoop Toss Game
The player (standing behind a railing) must toss a wooden hoop so that it lands completely around a prize and the velvet covered wooden block that it sits on.
As the spectator watches, the operator brings the game pieces to the front showing that the hoop does fit around the velvet covered base and prize with ease, convincing them they are sure to win. After he collects the game money from the players and provides them with their hoops, he places the block back onto the game area setting the stage for the player to try his luck.
It is during this moment that the operator pushes a layer of the velvet covered block making it too large for the hoop to fit around (all other prize blocks are already in their "special setting"). The game piece is "rigged" into its "special setting" while the operator's body is covering the move so, the player is unable to see any foul play and will never suspect there is a scam going on. If the player requests to see the velvet block again, the operator can easily move the "special piece" back to its original position so that the hoop once again fits around it.
The Clothes Line Game
Before you hangs a series of clothes lines with clothes pegs attached. On the back of the clothes pegs there are numbers written. At the top there is a sign showing a series of wining numbers. For a few dollars you can get 3 chances to select a wining clothes pin.
Easy right? Well its not so simple. You see, the numbers used as the winning numbers are all "reversible numbers" when held upside down. (ex; a 6 held upside down can be a 9). Take a look at the following winning numbers chart where winning numbers become losing numbers if held upside down:
Winning #'s Losing #'s 9 6 16 91 18 81 61 19 66 99 89 68 98 86
I think you get the idea. If the selected clothes peg is a winning number, the game operator just holds it upside down and yells out the losing number, quickly placing the peg back onto the line before the player catches on.
The Milk Pail Toss Game
Several feet in front of you sits a large metal milk pail about 3 feet high. Its fat base tapering into a wide open spout at the top with a hole just big enough to fit a large rubber ball through. The object of the pail toss is to throw the rubber ball into the whole at the top of the milk pail from a set distance. In doing so, you win a prize.
On its own, this game requires the perfect toss. The ball must be thrown high into the air and fall strait into the hole without touching the sides (much like a swish in basketball). If the bouncy rubber ball even slightly touches the rim of the pail, it will bounce and not fall in. With most people not adding the extra height to their toss, they almost never make the shot.
To make the game harder and virtually impossible to win. The carny has rigged the pail so that it sits on a tilt towards the back wall. By doing this, he creates an angle to the hole making the ball hit the rim on just about every shot. WIth the spout of the pail hiding a clear view of the hole, there is no way to tell this game is a rip off.
The Basket Toss
You take a large rubber ball and throw it into a basket. The objective being that the ball must stay in the basket to win, if the ball bounces out, you lose.
This is a very hard game on its own however, with the added "gaff" by the game operator, your chances of winning are next to none. The baskets are sitting on a tilted platform, making it extremely easy for the already bouncy ball to bounce out. However, with the the proper toss height and spin on the ball, the toss can be successfully repeated with practice.
In order to take this advantage away from the player, the game operator has built a mechanism that attaches to the platform. With the press of a foot switch hidden on the floor, the operator can secretly create a steeper tilt in the platform/basket, making it next to impossible to keep the ball from bouncing out of the basket, even with the proper toss.
The String Game
Fifty prizes are lined up row after row. Attached to each prize is a long blue string that runs up to the ceiling and then to the game operator. The operator holds the ends of each string in their hand and for a few dollars, you can take a chance and win the prize attached to the string you select. Every player wins a prize.
Although the game seems to be all about luck, in reality the game operator is able to control what prizes are won. You see, out of the 50 prizes only 10-20 of them are actually worth something where the others are only worth 50cents. The operator is happy to give away a 50cent prize in exchange for a few dollars. They are even happier to entice the players with the 10-20 fabulous prizes on display that you will never win.
How is the string game fixed you ask? Well, the trick is the operators hand and how they hold the strings. Much like the old rope magic trick, the game operator separates the winning strings from the others. They are still in the operators hand however, the winning strings are folded back up into the palm and held with the thumb so that the ends are concealed. It is very sneaky and if the operator is ever questioned, all they need to do is lift their thumb and let the strings fall back into place hidden amongst the other strings. As well, there are several game operators that have been to known to hide the winning strings from the bunch all together.
Pop the Balloon (with Dart) Game
Attached to the wall is a series of balloons with hidden prize tags behind them. The object is to pop a balloon by throwing a dart at it. If successful, you win the prize listed on the tag.
Although this game seems rather easy, the game operators rig a few things in order to make you lose. The first thing they do is make the darts very dull, making it hard to pop the balloon. The second thing they do is they only attach the balloon by the tip so that it easily spins, throwing the dart off course. The third thing they do is they only half blow up the balloon, making it very hard to pop. And lastly, the darts they use are way off balance and make the sharp end turn downwards in mid air. Combine these tricks with being kept at a far distance and your chances of winning are very low. Even if you do win, you have just exchanged a few dollars for a 50cent prize.
The Fish Pond Game
A favorite for kids, this game includes a wide aquarium filled with water and artificial fish. Each fish is marked with a number on its side that is hidden by a sliding cover movable by the game operator. You pay a few dollars to select a fish and if your number matches with one of the winning numbers posted on the wall, you win. If the number doesn't match, you lose or end up with a cheap prize.
The scam in this game is a creative one. It starts with the movable cover on the fish which hides the secret number. If the cover is moved upwards it will display the number 11 (losing#). If the cover is moved downwards, it will display the number 71 (winning#). By positioning the cover at just the right angle and stopping it in just the right spot, the operator is able to hide a portion of a number to make it look like another. ex; when the top of the 7 is hidden in the number 71, it would show as an 11. If the top of the 7 is hidden in the number 75, it would show as a 15. By using this form of trickery, the operator is able to decide if the selection is a winner or loser.
Hammer the Nail Game
Mostly appealing to men, this game involves hammering a nail into a wooden board in one wing of a hammer. It usually starts off with the not so strong looking game operator demonstrating that even he can do it with ease, explaining that its all in the wrist. However, when it comes your turn to try you are unable to get the nail entirely into the wood with your one swing.
The swindle in this game is in the nails. The carny has a bunch of hard nails that he keeps in his apron while the player is handed soft nails that look exactly alike. With a hard nail it is fairly easy to hammer the nail in one swing however with a soft nail, its extremely difficult.
Age Guessing Game
The rules of this one are simple, the game operator must guess your age within 2 years. If his guess is 3 or more years off, you win a prize.
The secrets used in this game are very clever. It is a combination of gathering facts and sleight of hand trickery. By observing the friends of the player, signs of gray hair, age spots, wrinkles, clothing and other personal factors, the operator is able to make an accurate guess. However, these aren't the only tricks used. Many carny's will write 2 guesses down on his pad giving him a 9 year range to play with. ex; if the operator writes down 25 and 30, that gives him a range from 23 to 32. The trick is that when he asks the player to reveal his age, he shows the correct of the 2 possible choices and secretly hides the other using slight of hand. Another trick is the use of a magicians device called a Nail Writer (add affiliate link). By using this secret device, the game operator is able to write his guesses down without anyone noticing. So when the player gives his age, the operator quickly uses his device to secretly write his guess down.
Weight Guessing Game
As in the above example of the age guessing game, the same forms of trickery are used. Some other things the game operator has to consider on this one is to examine the height, thickness, age, bone size and muscle size to make his educated guess. And if that fails, he uses his bag of tricks such as the nail writer.
Shoot the Star Game
A favorite to most, this is the game where you are given 100 pellets to shoot out a red star printed on a piece of paper that hangs about 15 feet away. The goal is to completely shoot out the star so that there is absolutely no red left.
The way in which the carny scams you is rather slick. To start, you are promised a 100 pellet cartridge for your riffle. However, the reality is there are at most 75 pellets (its not like they will let you count). As well, the aim on the riffles are way off making it impossible to aim correctly. And last but not least, even if you did have 100 pellets and a good riffle, it takes a great deal of skill to shoot out the star as the trick would be to shoot a complete circle around the star.

NH public health director: Viral outbreak 'clearly tied' to hospital lab
Six more people have been linked with an outbreak of hepatitis C at Exeter Hospital's cardiac catheterization laboratory, bringing the total to 10, and forcing state health officials to call for hundreds more patients to be tested. The cause of the outbreak remained a mystery Wednesday as officials from the New Hampshire Department of Health and Human Services announced nine patients and one hospital employee have now been diagnosed with an identical strain of the virus. The cardiac catheterization laboratory remains the only known connection between them. Believed to be the first of its kind in New Hampshire, the hepatitis C outbreak was announced publicly by the hospital last Thursday, May 31.

Lawyers should be forced to provide hard evidence of any claims that they cite as reasons for denying people access to public/private land for benign social events. The idea that there might be some "noise" from a truck used for cooking is probably a lot less than the noise of a City vehicle digging up a street, or from a home rebuild. Yet, some "attorney" can wave around the word "noise" on a piece of paper without even so much as one actual reading to demonstrate that some noise baseline had been exceeded.
This sort of event might lead to a little littering, but as long as the event coordinators policed the area when the event was overthen that matter would be taken care of. Let's hope that its coordinators will find some way to continue onin spite of these particular "neighbors" (who will doubtless find ways to object in the future).

Kashmir – Dilution Is No Answer
It is time for the army to consolidate
Its gains, rather than thin out
The motivation for this piece comes from Editor-in-Chief Shekhar Gupta's recent article in Indian Express, 'Disarming Kashmir' of December 7. In his inimitable style, he has built up a case that with peace and normalcy returning on the ground, there is scope for a partial thinning out of the Army presence in the Valley and some symbolic dilution of the Armed Forces Special Powers Act (AFSPA).
Challenges Before The Post 2014 General Election Government
Towards the end of May 2014, India will have a new government and a new Prime Minister. In his speech on the eve of the Republic Day 2014, the President made three significant remarks which every Indian must bear in mind. He warned against what he referred to as "populist anarchy". He also said that a political party and a government must promise only that which it can deliver. The President's third comment was that the people of India should vote sensibly so that the new government is stable and can take those decisions which lead the country on the path of development.
Shinzo Abe's India Visit – Hits and Misses
Much has been achieved during Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe's current visit to India and much has not. In reiterating a clear intention to strengthen bilateral ties, the visit has been a success, though in breaking new strategic ground concretely, the results could have been better.
President's Warning Shot – Voters Must Take Heed
The Indian President's speech on occasions like the Independence Day and the Republic Day is seen by people as something of a ritual that the Rashtrapati performs year after year. This is so because what dominates these speeches is dull, uninspiring prose packed with officialese and platitudes. Far from connecting with the people, these speeches only end up emphasizing the disconnect between the Head and State who lives in this grand palace which majestically overlooks Rajpath, and the Aam Aadmi (the common man).
Japan's New Defence Guidelines and India
As part of ongoing efforts to further strengthen Indo-Japan relations, Japanese Defence Minister Itsunori Onodera visited India in early January to discuss cementing of military ties. The visit comes close on the heels of China's declaration of a new Air Defence Identification Zone (ADIZ) over East China Sea which has implications on Japanese sovereignty over Senkaku/Diaoyu islands that are bone of contention between Tokyo and Beijing. India has also been at the receiving end of China's assertive policies along the disputed Sino-Indian border.
Afghanistan: Can India and Pakistan work Together?
With the US drawdown (perhaps even complete withdrawal) from Afghanistan looming large over the horizon, there is growing pessimism (a lot of it unwarranted) over the prospect of the Afghan state's ability to survive without the crutches of foreign security forces. Clearly, the impact of any collapse of the Afghan state as a result of ceaseless onslaughts by Islamist radicals (the Taliban/Al Qaeda combine) will not remain limited to Afghanistan. If anything, a destabilised Afghanistan will severely destabilise the entire region.
2014: A Challenging Year for Indian Foreign Policy
Our major foreign policy challenges are enduring and no dramatic change in our security environment is likely in 2014. Relations with Pakistan could actually worsen. Nawaz Sharif is focusing on Kashmir, knowing that it is a dead-end issue.
Afghanistan: Security Trends and Implications for India
The events in Afghanistan seem to be turning a full circle. 'Operation Enduring Freedom' that commenced in the aftermath of September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks is drawing to a close and plans are afoot to hand over Afghanistan to the very forces that were the root cause of the problems in Afghanistan. The American strategy has been shifting and its objectives have been diluted over a period of time. Disruption and dismantling of the Taliban networks is no more their objective.
India-China Relations: Mutual Concerns
In the Indian perception, there are several major areas of concern that are limiting the growth of the bilateral relationship. The foremost among these is the unresolved territorial and boundary dispute. The other major concern is the "all-weather" friendship between China and Pakistan that is, in Chinese President Hu Jintao's words, "higher than the mountains and deeper than the oceans".
Humiliation of Indian Diplomat by US Unacceptable
The arrest and hand-cuffing of India's Deputy Consul General (DCG) Devyani Khobragade in New York as if she is a criminal with all the intrusive personal indignities heaped on a "felon" by the US manuals raises serious questions about India-US bilateral equations and the unilateralist manner in which the US interprets the Vienna Convention on Consular Relations (VCCR).

Sometimes it's best to make a change in your life. It's possible something was holding you back from reaching your potential. In the case of Cliff Brantley, he just needed a change of scenery.
"Things were not working out for me at my previous school, baseball-wise," said the junior who played at Wagner College in Staten Island. "I was in a position where I needed somewhere to play and I remembered receiving a letter from Coach Dom Scala my junior year in high school. I took the chance in telling him I was interested in playing. I visited the school and came down with my parents. I am extremely grateful to Adelphi and Coach Scala for giving me the opportunity to play."
Through 29 games, it has been a tremendous decision. In a matter of one year, Brantley has gone from fighting for a lineup spot with a .170 average, to being the team's leading hitter from the first day of the season and the first player on Long Island to compile 50 hits.
To this point, he has an incredible 51 hits in 114 at bats (.447), including eight doubles, one home run, 20 runs and 15 stolen bases and stellar defense in center field.
"He's been the leadoff hitter we've been missing the past few years," said relief pitcher Mike Cranston. "A great teammate, hard worker and one of the fastest players I've played with," he added.
Brantley has made the Northeast-10 look easy. Those who have played in the conference know that is not generally the case. If you don't believe me, take a look at the nation's lowest team ERAs in 2011.
1. UMass-Lowell 1.83
2. Adelphi 1.98
3. Southern Connecticut State 2.12
4. Franklin Pierce 2.45
Even with that No. 1 ranked ERA, UMass still found a way to lose 14 games. Additionally, No. 18 and 19 on this list were also in the conference.
Essentially, the Northeast-10 is where batting averages go to die. The wood bats account for a big chunk of the power outage. It's one of few conferences in the country that enforce it. There is also a bevy of professional-caliber pitchers that come from this conference.
Regardless, Brantley had found a way to put together 15 multi-hit games, including nine three-hit games. It has been nothing short of remarkable.
Brantley attributes the start to two things. First off all, he credits his father, also Cliff Brantley, who played two seasons in the Major Leagues ('91-'92) to teaching him how to hit at a young age.
"Starting when I was about eight he would always throw the ball as hard as he could at me and told me to swing no matter where it was," he said. "So I could build up the hand-eye coordination and be able to gain the confidence that I could hit any pitch with two strikes," he added.
He also credits one of Adelphi's coaches, Bill Ianniciello.
"We spent hours upon hours, day-in and day-out before the season working on keeping both my hands on the bat throughout my swing. I always finished my swing with only my bottom hand on the bat. Keeping a strong top hand allowed me to hit the ball harder and hit more ground balls and line drives which is very beneficial to my style of play."
His father was a pitcher in the big leagues, which means he needed to find a hitter to emulate.
"Growing up I admired Jose Reyes, Jimmy Rollins and Dustin Pedroia. Currently, I'm starting to like Dee Gordon of the LA Dodgers and Carlos Gomez of the Milwaukee Brewers."
Having watched Brantley's style of play, he does resemble those players to varying degrees. That is saying something, considering their success at the highest level.
Brantley still has a way to go to approach them, but in the meantime he is focusing on getting the Panthers to the playoffs. They are in the midst of a dogfight for a postseason berth.
"We have a strong chance for sure at the playoffs," he said. "Our offense is starting to put up more runs these days and our pitching is continuing to do a good job. We can take this season as far as we want," he said.

North Shore-LIJ's Cushing Neuroscience Institute (CNI) recently announced that Garden City resident Richard E. Temes, MD, MS, has been appointed director of the Center for Neurocritical Care at North Shore University Hospital and assistant professor of neurology, neurological surgery and internal medicine at the Hofstra North Shore-LIJ School of Medicine.
"Dr. Temes is a nationally recognized leader in neurocritical care and we are delighted to have him on board to spearhead our efforts in further expanding the neurocritical care services program," said Raj K. Narayan, MD, chair of neurosurgery at North Shore University Hospital and Long Island Jewish Medical Center and CNI's director. For the past seven years, Dr. Temes served as director of the neurocritical care program he founded at Rush Medical Center in Chicago, Ill. He also served as the hospital's medical director of the Neuroscience Intensive Care Unit and as director of the Therapeutic Hypothermia Service. Under Dr. Temes' leadership, he established Rush's neurological emergencies transfer center, which grew to transfer 1,200 patients annually from over 30 institutions throughout southern Wisconsin, Illinois, Indiana and western Michigan.

It's a cute little 'bug.' What it represents, however, is anything but cute.
An unusual-looking Volkswagen is toodling around Long Island this month. Painted to resemble the Asian longhorned beetle (ALB), the VW Beetle is part of efforts by the US Department of Agriculture to eliminate the pest, which can destroy 70 percent of an area's tree canopy, according to the agency. Initially, officials held hope for complete eradication from about 23 square miles of the Island designated as infested or at risk by 2016. Instead, this "landcape-altering pest" is spreading.

Journalist EMMA D'AGOSTINO shares Garry and Julie Newman's story of fire and embracing new beginnings...
THERE'S no sugar coating it: Garry and Julie Newman's home of more than a decade is a wreck.
Last week Mrs Newman wrote to the Mail-Times to thank the many people who had helped - and are continuing to help - her family recover from the Grampians bushfire.
Their house in Wartook Valley was one of more than 30 razed by the January blaze.
Mail-Times photographer Paul Carracher and I knew this as we drove through the valley to meet Mr and Mrs Newman at their property.
But I was still unprepared for what we were about to see.
As we passed thousands of black spindles sticking out of the scarred earth like hairs standing on end, lining the roads leading to the Newmans' property, I realised there would have been no way a fire truck could have driven up their driveway.
Thankfully, the family decided early on they were in no situation to defend their property and left.
"We want people to learn from our experiences," Mr Newman said.
"Think of your personal safety and how you can manage it, and if you get caught and can't get out, what you're going to do."
Next came the shock of the remnants of the house.
Even from a distance, the dramatic slope of the melted metal roof that has caved into the centre of the wreckage betrayed the former dwelling's size.
It might look like it was a single-storey house, but it was a double.
"I had a really big craft room upstairs. My friends called it 'Wartook Spotlight'," Mrs Newman said.
"Every time we come out, the house is collapsing in more and more."
Think of your personal safety and how you can manage it, and if you get caught and can't get out, what you're going to do.
A disaster was what I saw when I first approached the property.
But after five months, Mr and Mrs Newman's focus has changed.
They led us to a small green sprout about a metre from their house.
"Every year since we've been here I've tried growing sweet peas, because they're my favourite flower," Mrs Newman said.
Until now, her attempts had been unsuccessful.
It took a fire to bring the seeds to life.
"The day of the fire, I didn't make my bed. I didn't wash my dishes," Mrs Newman said.
She had been meaning to do a stack of mending and clear out a lot of old junk.
Now, she joked, she did not have to worry about any of it.
"You've got to have a good attitude," she said.
"It's only stuff."
Mr Newman urged people to make sure they were adequately insured so they could replace their possessions.
"We were grossly under-insured," he said.
But he said his family had been lucky.
You've got to have a good attitude. It's only stuff.
A new home to the rear of their property, which has been in the works for many years, came under ember attack but was undamaged.
The family has thrown its energy into finishing the project, hopefully in time for Mrs Newman's birthday in September.
Being away from their friends in Wartook Valley has been one of the most challenging aspects of their recovery.
Mr and Mrs Newman are living in emergency housing in Horsham.
Their two adult sons, who have drug and mental health issues, are also in the process of rebuilding their lives.
"We'll be like newlyweds," Mr Newman said.
"We'll have a new life, a new house and new stuff, which is something to look forward to."
He credited much of their progress to their faith, family and friends.
"This is a great place to live," Mr Newman said.
"Everyone has a good heart.
"People do still care about each other."
He has a new batch of donated Collingwood memorabilia - perhaps some of the few things Mrs Newman was pleased to see incinerated - to prove it.

Time spent during the day or evening or on weekends preparing to start or actually operating a business may be considered employment even though no sales are made nor any compensation received.It is clearly not as simple as "you didn't make any money, so you can still claim unemployment." The language of the document suggests that starting a business may be enough to disqualify one from unemployment benefits, but that there are additional, unstated factors that go into the determination. This is why it is important to get an opinion from someone who knows how these things actually work.

Mother of brain-dead daughter says she is 'still asleep'
Jahi McMath was declared brain-dead Dec. 12 after complications during surgery three days earlier to remove her tonsils, adenoids and uvula at Children's Hospital & Research Center Oakland.
Los Angeles Times
The mother of Jahi McMath, the 13-year-old Oakland, Calif., girl declared brain-dead by multiple neurologists more than three months ago, insists that her daughter is "asleep" and "blossoming into a teenager."
McMath was declared brain-dead Dec. 12 after complications during surgery three days earlier to remove her tonsils, adenoids and uvula at Children's Hospital & Research Center Oakland.
At least three neurologists confirmed that the girl was unable to breathe on her own, had no blood flow to her brain and had no sign of electrical activity in her brain.
A court order kept McMath's body on a ventilator while independent experts could be brought in to affirm the findings. The McMath family secured the release of the body via the county coroner — which issued a death certificate — and has been keeping her on a ventilator at an undisclosed facility ever since.
In an interview Thursday with KNTV-TV in San Jose, Calif., Jahi's mother, Nailah Winkfield, said her daughter was "still asleep," adding that she refuses to refer to the girl as being brain-dead.
"I don't use the word 'brain-dead' for my daughter. I'm just waiting and faithful that she will have a recovery," she said. "She is blossoming into a teenager before my eyes."
Winkfield gave the interview from Philadelphia, where she was being honored at the Terri Schiavo Life & Hope Network's awards gala for protecting a loved one "against overwhelming odds."
Describing her daughter as "very responsive," Winkfield said McMath has physical therapy three or four times a week and moves her head from side to side.
Winkfield acknowledged that the teen remains unable to speak or squeeze her hand. She gives her daughter vitamins and fish oil herself "to feel useful."
Her comments come about a month after she posted similar comments on Facebook, saying McMath had improved physically. Winkfield also thanked supporters for helping the family through an "unbelievably difficult time."
Bodies of the brain-dead have been maintained on respirators for months or, in rare cases, years. However, once cessation of all brain activity is confirmed, there is no recovery, said Rebecca Dresser, professor of law and ethics in medicine at Washington University in St. Louis.
According to a U.S. District Court declaration from Dr. Heidi Flori, a critical-care physician at Children's Hospital & Research Center Oakland, which had sought to remove the teen from the ventilator, McMath's body will inevitably deteriorate, "regardless of any heroic measures that any facility in the country might attempt."
"Mechanical support and other measures taken to maintain an illusion of life where none exists cannot maintain that illusion indefinitely," she added.

The annual awards ceremony held by the ESPN cable network, now in its 18th year, took place at the Nokia Theatre in Los Angeles and aired live on ESPN. The broadcast was hosted by "Saturday Night Live" performer and writer Seth Meyers. And once again, the awards show coincided with the day after the Major League Baseball All-Star Game, one of the few "dead days" of the year in major sports.
St-Pierre, the UFC's welterweight champion, was nominated for Best Fighter. Edgar was up for Best Upset for his lightweight title win over BJ Penn at UFC 112 in April.
St-Pierre, nominated in the Best Fighter category for the second time, lost again to boxer Floyd Mayweather, who won for the third time. MMA fighters became eligible for the award when the sport began a mainstream surge and "Best Fighter" replaced "Best Boxer" in 2007.
St. Pierre has fought just one time since the 2009 ESPY Awards – a unanimous decision win over Dan Hardy at UFC 111 in March. He is currently filming Season 12 of "The Ultimate Fighter," which will debut Sept. 15, opposite fellow coach Josh Koscheck.
Edgar's Best Upset hopes were trumped by the Northern Iowa men's basketball team, which won for its upset of top-ranked Kansas in the 2010 NCAA Tournament. Edgar rematches Penn at UFC 118 in Boston on Aug. 28 – where he is once again a sizable underdog despite being the title holder.
Voting for the ESPYs is done online through fan balloting.

I would like to use Grunt to build a Durandal project, because Weyland remains completely undocumented and isn't as standard as Grunt.
To do this, the grunt task needs to pull in all the js and html files during optimization, but I am unable to get RequireJS to inline the html files via the text module.
It looks like weyland copies the text files manually, but I can't figure out what it's doing to get requirejs (or almond, in this case), to actually use them. I have seeen this question, but it requires the text modules to be referenced in the
define call, which isn't done in Durandal.
My gruntfile for require uses this config
requirejs: {
build: {
options: {
name: '../lib/require/almond-custom', //to deploy with require.js, use the build's name here instead
insertRequire: ['main'], //needed for almond, not require

Branded coverage to also appear via Justin.tv and U.S. ski team site.
Audi is running daily video webcasts during the two-weeks-long Winter Olympics. American ski team members T.J. Lanning and Resi Stiegler - who will not participate in the games due to injury - will co-host behind-the-scenes, 15-minute "webisodes" as they intermingle with fellow skiers.
Dubbed "Live at the Lodge with T.J. and Resi," the clips from Vancouver are being made available on Facebook.com/audi, Justin.TV, and USSkiTeam.com at 9:30 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time. The clips will generally represent a mash-up of interviews orchestrated by the two skiers earlier that day, and then those segments will eventually be made into a documentary once the Olympics end.
Jeri Ward, GM of marketing and strategy for the Herndon, VA-based automaker, commented on why the branding effort made strategic sense for Audi: "There are a lot of people who are really big fans of skiing. This gives them a really unique, inside look to everything that's happening on the mountain."
On anchoring the webisodes on Facebook rather than Audi.com, Ward cited her brand's 450,000-plus "fans" and their ability to share the videos in a viral fashion. "Obviously, we have a lot of U.S. ski team and Audi branded content on Audi USA," she said. "But, I believe that you can't expect [a flagship site] to be the only place for consumers to interact with your brand anymore. So we are trying to reach people where they are...and where they are spending a lot of their time."
During the Winter Games, Lanning and Stiegler will consider interview questions for the webisodes that are submitted via Audi's Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube accounts. Lanning is tweeting about the daily videos, Ward said, while his female counterpart is posting about the Olympics at her personal blog, Resi-Stiegler.com.
Ward added that Justin.TV's more than 1 million monthly visitors will see "promos leading up to the interstitials that show up on [that] site." Audi's monthly newsletter recently teased the webisodes as well.
Ward suggested that her brand was looking to build on the buzz from its "Green Police" Super Bowl effort and other recent advertising plays. The webisodes also "allows us to further promote our [three-year-old] partnership with the U.S. ski team," she explained.
While the webisodes will not be tagged during upcoming TV spots, Ward said that her brand is running :30 and :60 ads throughout the Winter Games. "About 100 total spots will run" on NBC and its family of cable channels providing events coverage, she said.

Evan Vucci, Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Up against one last deadline, Congress raced to pass legislation Wednesday avoiding a threatened national default and ending a 16-day partial government shutdown along the strict terms set by President Barack Obama when the twin crises began.
"We fought the good fight. We just didn't win," conceded House Speaker John Boehner as lawmakers lined up to vote on a bill that includes nothing for Republicans demanding to eradicate or scale back Obama's signature health care overhaul.
The stock market surged higher at the prospect of an end to the crisis that also had threatened to shake confidence in the U.S. economy overseas.
A Senate vote was set first on the legislation, which would permit the Treasury to borrow normally through Feb. 7 or perhaps a month longer, and fund the government through Jan. 15. More than two million federal workers — those who had remained on the job and those who had been furloughed — would be paid under the agreement.
Across the Capitol, members of the House marked time until their turn came to vote.
Only a temporary truce, the measure set a timeframe of early next winter for the next likely clash between Obama and the Republicans over spending and borrowing.
But for now, government was lurching back to life. In one example, officials met to discuss plans for gearing back up at the Department of Housing and Urban Development, where 307 employees remained at work during the partial shutdown and more than 8,000 were furloughed.
After weeks of gridlock, the measure had support from the White House, most if not all Democrats in Congress and many Republicans fearful of the economic impact of a default.
Boehner and the rest of the top GOP leadership told their rank and file they would vote for the measure, and there was little or no doubt it would pass both houses and reach the White House in time for Obama's signature before the administration's 11:59 p.m. Oct. 17 deadline.
That was when Treasury Secretary Jacob Lew said the government would reach the current $16.7 trillion debt limit and could no longer borrow to meet its obligations.
Tea party-aligned lawmakers who triggered the shutdown that began on Oct. 1 said they would vote against the legislation. Significantly, though, Texas Sen. Ted Cruz and others agreed not to use the Senate's cumbersome 18th century rules to slow the bill's progress.
"The compromise we reached will provide our economy with the stability it desperately needs," said Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, declaring that the nation "came to the brink of disaster" before sealing an agreement.
Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell, who negotiated the deal with Reid, emphasized that it preserved a round of spending cuts negotiated two years ago with Obama and Democrats. As a result, he said, "government spending has declined for two years in a row" for the first time since the Korean War. "And we're not going back on this agreement," he added.
McConnell made no mention of the polls showing that the shutdown and flirtation with default have sent Republicans' public approval plummeting and have left the party badly split nationally as well as in his home state of Kentucky. He received a prompt reminder, though.
"When the stakes are highest Mitch McConnell can always be counted on to sell out conservatives," said Matt Bevin, who is challenging the party leader from the right in a 2014 election primary.
More broadly, national tea party groups and their allies underscored the internal divide. The Club for Growth urged lawmakers to vote against the congressional measure, and said it would factor in the organization's decision when it decides which candidates to support in midterm elections next year.
