The research focused on the relationship between increased compliance with the provision of an individualized home management plan of care (CAC-3) and hospital readmission rates and post-discharge emergency department utilization rates at 7, 30 and 90 days. Over the course of the time period studied (Jan. 2008 through Dec. 2010), compliance with the measure increased in aggregate from 40.6 to 72.9 percent. However, the researchers found no statistically significant correlation between increased compliance with this measure and readmissions or emergency department visits. Although post-discharge education and follow up is an important construct to measure, the lack of an association between this specific measure and the outcomes studied highlights an opportunity for further refinement of the major pediatric core quality measure set included in the Joint Commission ORYX® initiative.
The research did not study the relationship between the other two measures in the set (use of relievers and systemic corticosteroids) because of the overall high level of performance and lack of variability in compliance among the hospitals studied. This also suggests an opportunity for further refinement and development in order to determine differences in the quality of care provided to children. The Joint Commission developed the CAC measure set in collaboration with CHCA, the National Association of Children's Hospitals and Related Institutions (NACHRI) and Medical Management Planning, Inc.
The research team, which included Dr. Harold Simon, concluded that findings from the study suggest the CAC-3 measure may not meet all of the criteria outlined by the Joint Commission for accountability measures. As defined by the Joint Commission, accountability measures are seen as the measures that are most suitable for external and public use, such as public reporting or pay for performance. The Joint Commission defines accountability measures as "evidence-based care processes closely linked to positive patient outcomes." The research team recommends that the home management plan for asthma care be re-evaluated to ensure that evidence-based practices are part of the plan families follow at home and that the plan is communicated effectively to enhance compliance.
"We need to continue to develop measures that ensure that children are consistently receiving high-quality care in all health care settings," says Dr. Simon. "In the end, this all about doing what is right for ill or injured children."
The study, "Hospital-Level Compliance with Asthma Care Quality Measures at Children's Hospitals and Subsequent Asthma-Related Outcomes," can be read in its entirety at http://jama.ama-assn.org/.

trixie's thread inspired me to make this thread wherein we can discuss interesting dream-related events!
2 interesting dream related things that have always stuck with me:
when i was around 5-7 i had a recurring dream, it probably happened once every couple months for years. i'd be hanging from a flag pole from the top floor of a giant building, and there'd be someone standing above me and i'd be asking him to grab my hand and lift me up. he wouldn't and i'd fall and wake up.
also when i was young, around the same age, i had a series of lucid dreams. to wake up from them i would either: go to sleep in the dream, or i'd imagine myself in the house i was living at the time, and when i opened the door to what i think was the close we kept sheets/towels/etc in at the time, i'd wake up. so one night i had another lucid dream, and after playing around in it a bit i decided i wanted to wake up. so i tried to go to sleep in the dream, but i didn't wake up. i was a little worried by this. so i went to the closet and opened it up, but it was just the towels and sheets as if i had just really opened the closet. so then i couldn't wake up and i started to panic and remember being REALLY scared of being stuck in the dream forever. after a while of that i woke up, and never had a lucid dream again.

Boys are two to three times more likely to have ADHD than girls.
Behavior disorders (sometimes referred to as disruptive behavior disorders) are the most common reasons children are referred for mental health evaluations and treatment. All disruptive behavior is not the same. Behavior disorders include mental health problems with a focus on behaviors that both identify emotional problems and create interpersonal and social problems for children and adolescents in the course of their development.
The most common behavior disorder in children is attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Conduct disorder focuses on the mental health problems identified and created by more disruptive behaviors. Oppositional defiant disorder is yet another behavior disorder that focuses on the behavior that is disruptive to relationships with others.
There are many types of behavioral disorders that require clinical care by a physician or other healthcare professional. Listed in the directory below are some, for which we have provided a brief overview.

Sorry, fax machines, Rolodexes and tape recorders. Your office days are numbered.
The networking site LinkedIn recently surveyed more than 7,000 of its members to see which business tools and trends are on their way in—and on their way out—within the next five years. Expected to go the way of the telex machine and the dial-up modem are, in order, the tape recorder, fax machine, Rolodex, standard workweek, desk phone, desktop computer, formal business attire, corner office for managers and execs, cubicle and USB thumb drive.
As for what new trends and tech will most likely be common in the workplace by 2017, the survey predicts tablets, cloud storage, flexible working hours, smartphones, telecommuting, video conferencing, Web-based documents, laptop computers, enterprise social networking and Web mail instead of e-mail clients.
LinkedIn connection director Nicole Williams says the Rolodex is a dying office item because today's networking devices are more than "a plastic contraption jammed with business cards."
"Your survival is based upon the relationships you form—and this isn't a contest of popularity but of influence," she says in a release. "The number-one question I'm asked when people learn I work with LinkedIn is, 'Do I have to accept all the connection requests that are sent to me?' The answer is no. The second most frequently asked question I get is, 'How did you get this job?' The answer is: through a trusted connection. The point here is, regardless of how cute (thinking chimpanzees) and talented we are, we all need a Jane Goodall in our lives. Professional survival requires a community to support our growth, invest in our development, watch our backs, sing our praises and fight for us when we need it."
Just don't try to do it via fax.

Voter ID Flap "NOT" Baseless
Published: Wednesday, August 28, 2013 at 11:42 a.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, August 28, 2013 at 11:42 a.m.
I'd like to clear up a few facts for the writer of the letter "Voter ID just baseless squawking". It's not just about showing a photo ID, which is the only point being made in this letter and, we're not all "parrots that repeat what they hear." The concern is about shortening the early voting days from 17 to 10 in which in 2012, 56 percent of voters who went to the polls for the general election cast a ballot during the early voting period. (Ever hear of the long lines of voters on Election Day in Florida because of abbreviated early voting?) This sweeping law now requires strict government-issued photo ID to cast a ballot. No student ID's will be accepted even though they are issued by the state colleges and universities. No out-of-state driver's licenses will be accepted (why not it's a government issued form of identification), cuts the number of early voting days by a week, eliminates same-day voter registration during the early voting period, and makes it easier while expanding the influence of unregulated corporate money in state elections. Oh; and hypothetically speaking, let's just say I was injured in an auto accident and hospitalized in Rockingham County and discharged on the last day of election, I wouldn't be able to vote there. Why not in this day and age of technology? It should be made easier to vote rather than placing obstacles at every turn. Trying to understand the mindset of this new state legislature is more than obvious, it is blatant hypocrisy.

|Vandal women visit Texas State
The Idaho women's basketball team will look for its fourth win in five games on Thursday as it visits Texas State with a 4:30 p.m. (Pacific) tip off.
The Vandals are coming off a 70-52 win over UT Arlington and enter Thursday's game with a 7-11 overall record and a 4-3 mark in Western Athletic Conference play, putting them in a four-way tie for third place in the league. Texas State is 7-10 on the season but just 1-6 in the WAC.
Thursday's meeting will be the first in program history between the two schools. Texas State will make the return trip to Moscow on March 2.
Texas State has two of the five best scorers in the WAC, with Diamond Ford's WAC-leading 20.8 points per game, and Ashley Ezeh's 16.0 points per game. That tandem helps the Bobcats' 71.5 total scoring offense, which is second best in the WAC. However, Texas State also allows 71.5 points per game this season, and its offense hasn't been as successful in WAC games, scoring 65.7 points per game in the WAC.
Idaho is led by junior Alyssa Charlston, who has three double-doubles in Idaho's last six games, and is averaging 15.7 points per game in that span. Freshman Christina Salvatore has made at least one 3-pointer in 17 of Idaho's 18 games, and ranks 18th in the nation with 2.94 3-pointers made per game, and 84th win a 35.3 3-point field goal percentage.
The game is the first of four straight WAC road games for Idaho. The Vandals will visit UTSA on Jan. 26,Utah State on Jan. 31 and San Jose State on Feb. 2 before returning home to host New Mexico State on Feb. 7.

This HowTo is a step-by-step guide on how you could perform a coordinated search for Prior Art in the Internet.
Patents contain several claims. You have to invalidate each Claim on its own! Just invalidating Claim 1 does not invalidate Claim 2 (but it might still help you there).
We also verified this HowTo ourself with examples on real patents. If you are not sure how some step could be achieved then take a look at our Example Prior Art search [4]
Schecter IBM [5] 03/15/2006 (cited [6]):
I suggest the focus be on finding the closest prior art, including each and every feature of a claim, preferably in a single reference.
Basic Steps Before You Start
Identify the patent priority
Each patent has a Priority-Date. This is the day at which the patent was first applied. Only Publications prior to this date can be used against this patent. (One year prior to the filing date is much better.) So first step will always be identifying this date. The Priority-Date can be found on each Patent-Publication. How to Read a Patent [7]
Try to understand the patent - point out the novelty
This (obvious) step is most easily done by summarizing the first patent claim with your own words. To make it even easier your can:
- Replace unnecessary complex terms with easier ones (e.g. 'client data processing unit' with 'client').
- Replace complex mathematical descriptions with just a function (e.g. replace 'a = 5*7 + 14 / b^e' with f()).
- Remove descriptions that do not describe the invention itself but only scientific basics, commercial applications, use-cases or benefits of the invention with nothing (e.g. 'This method is based upon E = mc^2' can be replaced with '-'). This step does not change the invention itself.
- structure the patent as you understand it.
- If the invention contains software, try to replace these parts with pseudo-code.
- Now you should be able to point out the novelty with just one or two short sentences.
Try to find out which kinds of systems might use similar methods
- This step is really very generally, e.g. if you have a method describing some specific way of copying files from servers to clients, every application doing this can be but into this list (ftp-clients, http-clients, gopher-clients, ways-clients, mail-clients, irc-clients, version control systems, instant-messengers like icq, aim and msn, but also each application that can just copy files in combination with network-filesystems like MS-Explorer, cp, copy, mv, move, xcopy, and also systems that can open files from network-drives like cat, Gimp, Word, OpenOffice, type, etc. could be Prior-Art in this case)
- We also give you some starting points, depending on the USPTO classification of the patent here: Publication Categorization [8]
..with all Programs/Projects that might use similar methods
This actually needs knowledge about the specific programs. You might just try some of the programs (if freely available) to check if they can do what you are looking for. FAQs, Docs or Manuals are also helpful here.
- Select those that you expect to fit best (maybe assign marks from 1-10) to the described method and write down their download-url / homepages
- Determine in a first step from which date those (best rated) programs are (e.g. by visiting their Homepages) and mark those that are prior to the Priority Date bold.
- Eliminate all Projects that are definitely newer than the Priority-Date (and only come back here if you can't find evidence using one of the remaining ones)
Now, that you have a short list of Projects (maybe only one), we need to:
Verify that the implementation / description is older than the Priority-Date
- Hint
- You don't need to seek for evidential proof here yet, just write down whichever sources you trust yourself.
- Take a look to the Documentation-Archive and read about the last Release prior to the Priority-Date
- Look into the Changelog and try to find the appropriate change.
- Search the Usenet for this program combined with year-numbers (e.g. 'sendmail 1990', 'sendmail 1989', etc. if the program was sendmail and the priority-date was 1990)
- Search the mailinglist-archive and find appropriate mails. Try to get the complete mbox including all Headers of the mails)
Verify that it really implemented or described the patent
.. or parts of it, everything is good here!
- Take a look to the FAQ, Documentation, etc.
- Ask publicly on the mailinglist of that project
Don't forget to ..
While doing the above you might find other projects on which this project is based upon.
Verify if one of those (even older) Projects already implemented the patented method. If that is the case add it to your list. This is a very normal step, e.g. if you are looking for some graphical methods, you might start with Gimp, and then see that ImageMagick is a program that is havily used by Gimp. Don't forget to checkout ImageMagic as well.
What to do with a specific file that shall be used as Prior Art
If you identified a specific version of a program that holds the Priority-Date and contains parts of the patented method you still need to proof that this file was already publicly accessible at that date:
- Hint
- It's not that important that you find hard evidence here. Don't surrender just because you can't find any hard-evidence (as e.g. printed Publications). This will only become important if the patent applicant really questions the publication date. If you e.g. found some electronic timestamps, then mostly the applicant will have to proof that those are bogus.
- try to find a cvs-archive that contains those files
- identify complete archives that contain those files (ISO-Images, Linux-Distros, .deb, .rpm, .src.tar.gz, .src.Z, -i386-bin.tar.gz, ..)
- search for this specific files and try to find proofs for their existance to that date by notating as many download-urls as you can find (according with their local timestamps if available like on ftp-servers)
- search for (completely different) projects that base upon those files (e.g. cvsgui uses cvs and has a copy of cvs-1.10 in their own version-control cvsgui/cvs-1.10 [9]
- http://google.com [10]
- for just about everything, also has a usenet search (google groups)
- http://wikipedia.org [11]
- Wikipedia - the free encyclopedia. Articles are very valuable, especially because many of them contain a History-Section and Links to similar projects. Don't forget to check articles in different languages, they often differ very much (use translation-sites). I noticed that german wiki-pages much more often have history-sections than their english equivalents. Look for a translation in 'Deutsch' and checkout if there is a section named 'Geschichte'.

Anyway, if you are looking for any Prior Art, then above tools will help you much more. Taking into account that only google itself returns for the letter 'a' 20.470.000.000 results, then the 150 million pages from espacenet and the 240 million pages from the USPTO look like a drop in the ocean.
You might say that USPTO has selected documents and the internet has lots of shit, well, then just say only every 10th internet-page contains some real information, then there are still more then five times as many good documents you can search with google compared to patent search engines (20.470.000.000 / 10 / (150.000.000 + 240.000.000) > 5).
What's next?
Well, if you found some Prior Art, the following options can be considered:
- The patent is already granted
- ask the owner to void the patent himself
- ignore the patent and all license fees, if your Prior Art is good, then you don't need to fear beeing sued
- try to void the patent by force - sue the owner
- The patent is not yet granted
- send your Prior Art to the inventor, then he has to pass this knowledge on to the USPTO, resulting in a lesser chance that the patent will be granted (for submissions to IBM you can use this form [56]).
- It's your own patent
- don't file it

Babajaga comprises two classically trained Eastern European musicians who blend together live violin and electronic beats to create a lush and captivating sound. Kind of reminds us of the gypsy styled Beats Antique or something you'd hear on the Buddha Bar compilations. Their debut EP, The Passage, will be out next week on July 13, and we've got a little taste to tide you over.
"Caravan" is the first single and available for free download. Starting somewhere in outer space, the track crescendos into a Middle Eastern style violin melody and gains force with haunting piano and electronic embellishments that encircle you.

Sly and the Family Stone were the virtual embodiment of the Woodstock Nation: integrated, soulful and funky. Even with several hit records behind them, the audience wasn't prepared for the funk-driven soul revue laid down by the Family Stone. Few, if any, white audience members had ever experienced anything like their showmanship. Sly and the Family Stone rewrote the book on performance.
The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum will open its latest featured exhibit, Common Ground: The Music Festival Experience on Friday, April 25, 2014. The exhibition will be an engaging look at the music festival as more than just an outdoor concert, but as a community experience. Whether it's forging human bonds, building a sense of community, providing broad exposure for musical artists or as one of the most important economic engines of the music industry, the story of the music festival is inextricably linked with music's powerful cultural impact around the globe. Visit Common Ground: The Music Festival Experience to immerse yourself in this story.

Anaglyph 3D. I thought that it was TRUE or Real3d , the new, not old school red/blue 3d. And I could not get my eyes to adjust to the cheap glasses. IN 2d it was a great story. It it was in Real3d , I would have gave it all five star rating.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

I have done a lot of research and found numerous ways of accomplishing from game engine with derived classes to using enums and I would like to know the most effective/efficient way of managing game states.
i just wonted to quickly rephrase my question...i would like to now how u implement your game state management...what you like the most and why you like it..also any tutorials/code examples generally about game state that would also be much appreciated.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Emily Great look for the table Love the way these placemats look - they add a lot of interest to our table. One thing to note is that they're cotton and washable, which is great, but they do shrink substantially when dried in a dryer. This wasn't an issue for us as they actually fit better on our small table after shrinking, but just something to keep in mind. March 15, 2013

Photo of Mickey Factz © Mel D. Cole
By Mawuse Ziegbe
I consider myself a hip hop head. But being a hip hop head with a vagina is not all tea and crumpets. For one thing, every show kinda feels like crashing a bachelor party. When I keep a hopeful eye for my sistren, I usually find a couple of ladies, eyes glazed over, clearly dragged to the show by their bedroom-producer boos. What really ruffles me is when MC Such and Such screeches, "this one's for the ladies!!" Like, what? The other hour and a half of your set wasn't for me? Why was I standing in heels and elbowing tipsy NYU kids all night? How about I return your album and just download that one song "for the ladies."
So why do I keep going? Mostly, it's hope (as Obama proves, yes we can!). For every clumsy cock-hop rapper flapping his gums, there's a Kidz In The Hall. Back in undergrad at the University of Pennsylvania, I heard about this senior, Jabari who was actually going to chase his dreams and become a rapper. Usually, Quakers file out of Penn and into cushy jobs like so many overachieving automatons (People don't really blow 200 Gs on book-learnin' and then go hustle and flow for a living). Maybe crippling student debt drives the duo of Naledge and fellow Penn album, Double-O because their latest album, The In Crowd, is all sorts of fantastic. Their influences are all over the place as glimmers of N.E.R.D., Camp Lo (who appear on the album), Little Brother (see track 2), and Eric B & Rakim are in the mix. They're not immune from lyrical foolery but the Kidz do put their schoolin' to work with the wordplay. They sound like good chilluns who cut-up in seedy pool halls.
Plus, they know err'body in the bourgeoning nerd-hop scene. Travis McCoy from Gym Class Heroes, Estelle, Skyzoo, Phonte from Little Brother, one of those beefy guys from Game Rebellion and more all came through their party at S.O.B.s like there was some collapsible clown car on stage right. The best surprise of the night was Mickey Factz who also impressed me at the In The Mood party last week at Midway. Ubiquita DJ SheRock (who you can often catch feverishly waggin' her behind at a Hudson Hotel event) was unleashing burners in the DJ nook and downstairs Mickey was one big ball of dapper swagger, ending his set with a hearty version of his addictive midtempo track "Automatic." He can be very on-trend (there is the boneheaded thump of "I Like Your Supras") but his music is fairly classic – think powdery future soul with introspective lyrics and hot girls singing the hook. Overness.
The same night, the Brownswood Sessions 7 went down at NuBlu with José James. Another Ubiquita beauty, DJ Moni held court with the chunes as crackly projections bathed the walls. Once again, Brownswood, with José's bold, round vintage vocals gives off that intimate, jam-session-in-my-bedroom feel that makes up for that wily trek to Avenue C. And speaking of home, I recently checked out Stanley Lumax's "Back To My Roots" exhibit opening at Habana Outpost. I really liked his photos of rural Ghana when he showed at Harriet's Alter Ego back in April and this exhibit features more colorful and poignant snapshots of Africa's west coast. And thankfully there's none of that forced "Africans are beautiful too!" visual rhetoric that cheeses up those Benetton campaigns.
But honestly, stark Benetton billboards featuring smiley Africans could have been the backdrop to every scene in Sex and the City: The Movie and I wouldn't have noticed – I loved it!! It wasn't the Couture Four still running around the island cocktailing and teabagging but rather sad yet lovely new phases for my favorite characters. Next week I may wax about what it's like seeing the movie for the 4th time – because SATC is definitely for the ladies in the house.

Gardening Articles: Landscaping :: Lawns, Ground Cover, & Wildflowers
Lawn Mower Savvy (page 4 of 5)
by Frank A. Viggiano and National Gardening
Lawn Tractor
This category includes the widest range of sizes and prices. The general advice is to use some sort of riding mower for lawns larger than 1/2 acre. But if your 3/4-acre lawn is dotted with trees, flowerbeds, edged walkways and other obstructions, a walk-behind might be still be a better choice. Typical horsepower ratings are provided here, but more isn't always better. In some cases, the less refined machine has more horsepower to compensate for its reduced efficiency.
The simplest kinds are riding mowers that are smaller than lawn tractors. They are usually easier to maneuver, but less capable on slopes.
Lawn tractors are larger and look more like a car. You sit and look out over a hood covering the engine, and the mowing deck is underneath you. Commonly 10 to 15 horsepower, lawn tractors cut with a 38- to 42-inch deck. Mulcher conversions and tow carts are usually available. Cost is $700 to $4,000.
Garden tractors are scaled-down versions of farm tractors, with 12 to 20 horsepower engines and 38- to 60-inch mowing decks. Compare frames, axles, transmissions, efficiency from power take off to attachments and interchangeability of attachments. Typical attachments include chipper, rototiller and snowblower. Tow carts and reel mower gangs are also available. Prices start around $1,000 and reach upwards of $6,000.
In some cases, you sit in a sort of chair with the mowing deck underneath you and the engine in the rear. Called rear-engine riders, these are practical if you maintain at least 1/2-acre of lawn.
The turning radius is much tighter than on a lawn or garden tractor. When there is no turning raius at all, the mower is called a "zero turn." You steer by controlling the drive on the rear wheels; the front wheels are like those on shopping carts. This creates limitations, such as the inability to maneuver across a slope. The mowing deck is 30 to 42 inches wide, and the engines deliver eight to 13 horsepower. (John Deere's spin-steer tractor is a hybrid that looks like a typical lawn tractor but behaves like a zero-turn.) Typical rear engine mowers cost $700 to $1,000; zero-turns cost $1,500 and up.
Comfort is a major concern when purchasing these larger machines. Your body should fit the machine so that the steering wheel, seat, pedals, controls, key starter and movement controls are easily accessible. Ride the unit. I've tested some that are noisy, full of unwanted vibration and simply uncomfortable. You test drive a new car, why not a riding mower?
Safe and Sensible Lawn Care
No matter which type of lawn mower you choose, there are concerns and features that must be considered.
Many states have passed laws banning the disposal of yard waste, including grass clippings in landfills. According to the Composting Council, yard trimmings are the second largest component of municipal solid waste (18 percent or 35 million tons). The Professional Lawn Care Association of America is promoting Grasscycling. This term means either composting or mulching the clippings where they are produced. Your choice of a mower will determine how you deal with your lawn clippings.

Yaki Imo/ Roasted Sweet Potato
(Source: p.nestle.co.jp/)
Name: Nestlé Kit Kat Yaki Imo
Price: ¥ 315
Contents: 12.3 g ×8
Release date: 12.10.2009
This bright yellow bar is flavoured with the perfect amount of fragrant sweet potato in both the white chocolate and the creme between the wafers. This flavour tastes genuinely like the real thing – if you can imagine sweet potato combined with chocolate, this would be it :]
Ichigo/ Strawberry
(Source: d.nestle.jp/)
Name: Nestlé Kit Kat Ichigo
Price: ¥ 525
Contents: 12.3 g ×14
Release date: 7.12.2009
I adore both milk chocolate and strawberries, so I was positive that I will enjoy this Kit Kat. It is indeed nice; it has a strong but artificial strawberry scent and taste to it although it lacked sourness that typical strawberry flavoured confections usually have.
(Source: d.nestle.jp/)
Name: Nestlé Kit Kat Maple
Price: ¥ 525
Contents: 12.3 g ×13
Release date: 25.1.2010
The package indicates that this flavour in honour of the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics and it has 1.7% of maple syrup from Quebec. Even with such a minute amount, it does indeed taste like the real thing =] I loove how the maple syrup flavour blends so nicely with the white chocolate bars, yummm!
Custard Pudding
(Source: d.nestle.jp/)
Name: Nestlé Kit Kat Custard Pudding
Price: ¥ 315
Contents: 12.3 g ×9
Release date: 1.3.2010
I took my first foray into the world of Japanese Kit Kats with this particular flavour a year ago. I'm delighted that I get to revisit it!
Crème caramel is known as purin (プリン) or custard pudding in Japan. This flavour tastes exactly like its namesake with a hint of vanilla thrown in. It was a little too sweet however the tastiness more than make up for it!
Thank you for reading and have a fabulous weekend lovelies!!

As I said in my last post about Savor the Summit, one of the highlights is just looking at tables and seeing how different restaurants create unique one-night ambiance for their guests.
The best food event in Utah–and that's saying a lot–Park City Area Restaurant Association's annual Savor the Summit fundraiser features the longest dinner table at 7,000 feet. All of Main Street is closed to vehicles for the event and tables are placed end to end down its length for the amazing al fresco feast at the Grande Table.
Bill White Restaurant Group's tables, Wahso and Chimayo, are always amazing, but last year's Talisker on Main table with its rustic trellis made of avalanche-felled aspen trunks was a showstopper, too.
Last year was Talisker's first time at Savor the Summit; this year, another restaurant from the giant Canyons-Talisker resort, The Farm, will make its debut on Main Street. Canyons/Talisker's executive chef John Murcko is cut from the same extravagant cloth as Bill White, so the Farm's table will be one to gawk at.
The Farm team will be will be cooking on the deck outside of Talisker on Main and capitalizing on "nose-to-tail" interest, Murcko and his team have bought an entire cow which they will use for both Talisker on Main and The Farm. So there will be some less common cuts of beef featured in various courses.
(Lucky diners–I was a judge at Nicholas & Co.'s Ultimate Chef Challenge the year that the surprise ingredient was a side of beef which the chefs had to break down and prepare. Murcko and Clement Gelas, now chef at Slopes, served so many courses of creatively prepared meat that victory was inevitable. And by the way, Murcko won again this year, without the beef.)
Sommelier Sean Marron has two wine pairings for The Farm diners, including one which features bio-dynamic wines.
Murcko also promises a big visual surprise for The Farm diners–top secret. I've been given some hints, but my lips are sealed…I'll be Tweeting photos on Saturday night.
Even though Savor the Summit's big table sells out every year, Main Street is open to pedesstrians who want to shop, eat at a non-participating restaurant and enjoy the music at Mountain Sounds Stage and a drink in the Spirits Garden.

"In the early spring, when the snow was still deep, in a den inside a big hollow tree, Yasha was born. There, he and his mother lived, warm and snug. But one day, hunters came and Yasha's mother was gone."
So begins the true story of Yasha, an orphaned moon bear, and how he was adopted into a brand new family. Left without his mother in the Russian wilderness, Yasha was scared and alone. Would he be an orphan forever? Then, two young scientists named Liya and Sergey take him deep into the forest to teach him how to live in the wild. Yasha meets two more cubs, Shum and Shiksha, and soon the three bears are playing together like real brothers and sisters. The scientists protect their new family, but it is also their mission to raise the cubs to become wild bears with skills to survive on their own.
Through heartwarming photographs of this unique rescue story, we watch Yasha learn and grow with his new family until he's finally ready to be on his own. Curious kids will also appreciate looking at the map of Yasha's homeland and places where other moon bears live, as well as learning interesting facts about them.
Liya Pokrovskaya was born in Moscow, Russia, and from childhood dreamed of working to save endangered animals around the world. In 2008, she graduated from Moscow State University as a specialist in vertebrate zoology. Her areas of interest are behavioral ecology, behavioral development, large carnivores, and social relations in animals. During her studies she has been on scientific expeditions to the White Sea, the Commander Islands, and Antarctica. She lived in the Russian Far East studying moon bears for almost two years. She has been named a National Geographic Young Explorer for 2009.

It's likely that you will have physical concerns since your cancer may cause symptoms and your treatment may cause side effects. In this section, you'll learn more about how to respond to some of the most common symptoms and side effects from treating esophageal cancer.
Here are some common side effects from treatment for esophageal cancer and how to ease them. You may not have all of these. We've listed them in alphabetical order so that you can find help when you need it.
Throughout your treatment, your doctor will test your blood. One thing he or she is checking is your red blood cell count. Red blood cells carry oxygen throughout the body. If your body does not have this oxygen, you may feel tired. Decreased red blood cell counts can be caused by small amounts of blood loss, by chemotherapy or radiation, or by the cancer itself. Tiredness is also a very common symptom and side effect from surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation treatments. You may feel only slightly tired, or you may suffer from extreme fatigue. Fatigue can sometimes last for weeks or months after treatment ends.
Taking these actions may help increase your energy level:
Take short rests when you feel tired. Avoid long naps during the day so that you can sleep well at night.
Add mild exercise, such as walking, to your daily routine. It may help you sleep better.
Balance activity with rest. Save your energy for important tasks.
Drink plenty of water. Dehydration leads to increased fatigue.
Take action to treat a poor appetite, because eating improperly can make you tired.
If your fatigue is severe or chronic, ask for help with routine tasks that can drain your energy, such as grocery shopping or housework. Some people reduce their hours at work.
Talk with your doctor about medications or treatments that may help manage your anemia.
Many people may feel blue, anxious, or distressed after being told they have cancer. These feelings may continue or come back throughout treatment.
Taking these actions may ease your mental stress:
Talk with your family or friends.
Consider joining a cancer support group or finding a cancer "buddy" who can help you cope.
Ask your doctor about medications for depression and anxiety.
This may be a side effect of chemotherapy or some pain medicines. Constipation, which includes difficult or infrequent bowel movements, can range from mildly uncomfortable to painful. Taking pain medications can lead to constipation, so it's wise to take these preventive actions. These same steps may also give you relief if you are already constipated:
Drink plenty of fluids, especially water and prune juice.
Eat foods high in fiber, such as cereals, whole grains, fruits, and vegetables.
Take stool softeners or a laxative only as prescribed by your doctor.
Many drugs can cause bowel changes. This may be a side effect of chemotherapy. Diarrhea, which includes loose or frequent bowel movements, or both, may lead to dehydration if you don't take these precautions:
Avoid milk and milk products if they seem to make the diarrhea worse.
Avoid gas-producing vegetables, dried fruit, fiber cereals, seeds, popcorn, nuts, corn, and dried beans.
Eat low-residue, low-fiber foods such as those included in the BRAT diet (bananas, rice, applesauce, and toast).
Drink more fluids, such as water and broth, to prevent dehydration.
Ask your doctor about medications that may help.
Many factors may make eating, drinking, and swallowing difficult. The cancer and related tightening of the esophagus, surgery, radiation therapy, and photodynamic therapy can all cause this side effect.
Take these actions to feel better:
Ask about using an IV or a feeding tube when swallowing is most difficult, especially after surgery.
Eat several small meals and snacks throughout the day instead of 3 large meals.
Eat bland, soft foods that are easy to swallow.
Sit up for a while after eating.
Try not to eat just before going to bed.
Use an extra pillow or two when lying down.
Ask to see a dietitian for diet counseling after surgery.
This may be a side effect of radiation therapy.
Protect your skin from sun exposure by wearing sunscreen of at least 30 SPF.
Ask your doctor or nurse what kind of lotion you can use to moisturize and soothe your skin. Don't use any lotion, soap, deodorant, sunblock, cologne, cosmetics, or powder on your skin after radiation treatment without asking your doctor or nurse first because they may cause irritation.
Wear loose, soft clothing over the treated area. Cotton underwear can help prevent further irritation.
Don't scratch, rub, or scrub treated skin. After washing, gently blot dry.
Don't bandage skin with tape. If you must bandage it, use paper tape, and ask your nurse to help you place the dressings so that you can avoid irritation.
Don't apply heat or cold to the treated area. Bathe only with lukewarm water.
If you must shave the treated area, use only an electric shaver. Don't use lotion before shaving. And don't use hair-removal products.
Keep your nails well trimmed and clean.
Losing your hair is called alopecia. It can be upsetting because baldness is a visible reminder that you are being treated for cancer. Chemotherapy and radiation can cause hair loss. Keep in mind that your hair will probably grow back after treatment.
Try these coping tips:
Consider cutting your hair before treatment starts.
Think about getting a wig, hat, or scarf before your hair loss starts. That way, you can get a wig that matches your hair and you'll be ready with head coverings, if you choose to use them.
Because your scalp may be more sensitive to temperature and sun, protect it with sunscreen and hats or scarves.
Some types of chemotherapy and radiation therapy may cause mouth sores. These may hurt and make eating an unpleasant experience.
To prevent sores in your mouth, take these actions:
Brush your teeth after meals and before bedtime; floss every day if this is part of your normal routine unless your doctor or nurse tells you not to.
Keep your mouth and lips clean and moist.
Use sugar-free candies or gums to increase moisture in your mouth.
To ease the pain if you get sores in your mouth, take these actions:
Avoid alcohol and mouthwashes containing alcohol because they may irritate the sores.
Avoid hot, rough, or spicy foods because they may irritate the sores. Chilled, bland, and soft foods may be easier to swallow.
Avoid tobacco because it may irritate the sores. Smoking can also make you more susceptible to sores.
Ask your doctor or nurse about topical mouth medications.
Ask your doctor or nurse what you can take for pain.
Call your doctor or nurse if your temperature reaches 100.5°F (38.1°C) or higher.
Nausea or vomiting as a result of surgery, chemotherapy, or radiation treatment for cancer may range from barely noticeable to severe. It may help you to understand the different types of nausea:
Acute-onset nausea and vomiting. This occurs within a few minutes to several hours after chemotherapy. The worst episodes tend to be 5 to 6 hours after treatment, and the symptoms end within the first 24 hours.
Delayed-onset vomiting. This develops more than 24 hours after treatment.
Anticipatory nausea and vomiting. These are learned from previous experiences with vomiting. As you prepare for the next dose of chemotherapy, you may anticipate that nausea and vomiting will occur as it did previously, which triggers the actual reflex.
Breakthrough vomiting. This occurs despite treatment to prevent it. It requires additional treatment.
Refractory vomiting. This occurs when you're no longer responding to antinausea treatments.
To prevent nausea, take these actions. Most nausea can be prevented:
Ask your doctor about getting a prescription medicine to control nausea and vomiting. Then make sure you take it as directed. If you are vomiting and cannot take the medicine, call your doctor or nurse.
If you have bothersome nausea and vomiting even though you are taking your medicine, call your doctor or nurse. Your medicine can be changed, or other medicines can be added.
Your doctor may want you to use an IV or feeding tube for receiving fluids, nutrients, and medications, especially if you had surgery.
To help ease nausea or vomiting if you have it, try these tips:
Try eating foods and drinking beverages that were easy to take or made you feel better when you've had the flu or were nauseated from stress. These may be bland foods, sour candy, pickles, dry crackers, ginger ale, flat soda, or others.
Do not eat fatty or fried foods, very spicy foods, or very sweet foods.
Eat room-temperature or cold foods. The smells from hot foods may make your nausea worse.
Ask your doctor or nurse if he or she can help you learn a relaxation exercise. This may make you feel less anxious and more in control, and decrease your nausea.
Ask your doctor or nurse about using acupressure bands on your wrists, which may help decrease your nausea.
Throughout your treatment, your doctor will test your blood. One thing he or she is checking is your white blood cell count. Many types of chemotherapy can cause low white blood cell counts, as can the cancer itself. Without enough white blood cells, your body may not be able to fight infection. If your doctor tells you that your white blood cell count is low, take these actions to stay healthy:
Avoid crowds or people with colds.
Wash your hands often or use hand sanitizer throughout the day to kill germs.
Call your doctor right away if you have any of these signs of infection: a temperature of 100.5°F (38.1°C) or higher, severe chills, a cough, pain, a burning sensation during urination, or any sores or redness.
If you have numbness, tingling, or weakness in your hands and feet, you may have nerve damage called peripheral neuropathy. This can be a side effect of chemotherapy. Other signs of this problem are ringing in your ears or trouble feeling hot or cold. If you have symptoms such as these, take the precautions to protect yourself:
Take extra care walking and moving so that you don't fall.
Use warm, not hot, water for bathing to prevent burns. Consider using a shower chair or railing.
If your daily activities become too difficult, ask your doctor for a referral to an occupational therapist or a physical therapist. They can help teach you new ways of doing things so that you can stay as active as possible.
Take extra care when driving (you may have trouble feeling the gas and brake pedals). Ask friends and family to drive you places.
You may have mild problems with concentration and memory during and after chemotherapy. Being tired can make this worse.
Taking these actions may help:
Make lists and write down important information.
Use other tools to help organize your life, such as calendars, pill dispensers, or alarm clocks.

Bonar Matches Career High 42 Saves in Men's Hockey Loss to No. 16 Union
PRINCETON, N.J. (1/11/13) - A three-goal first period led No. 16-ranked Union to a 3-2 win over the Princeton men's hockey team on Friday, Jan. 11 at Hobey Baker Rink before another standing-room only crowd.
Union's offense coupled with the number of penalties Princeton picked up hindered the Tigers from getting back in the game.
The Tigers quickly jumped out with a lead thanks to a goal by junior Will MacDonald 25 seconds into the game. Junior Jack Berger collected a blocked Union shot and and slipped it up ice to MacDonald who shot over the blocker of netminder Troy Grosenick.
Princeton took four straight penalties, with Union capitalizing on a 5x3 opportunity. Kyle Bodie scored with help form Wayne Simpson and Mat Bodie to even the game at 9:29.The Tigers did a nice job handing the second-best power-play unit in the country, as Union would score just once on seven chances in the game.
Max Novack gave the Dutchmen the lead on a second-chance opportunity off a wrister from Daniel Carr at 12:24. Six minutes later Carr expanded on the lead with a wrap around that he put between goaltender Sean Bonar and the right post.
Sophomore Tyler Maugeri tallied his seventh goal of the season midway through the second frame to cut the Tigers deficit to one. Junior Jeremy Goodwin collected the puck along the right boards and popped it into the center for freshman Michael Zajac. Zajac saw Maugeri flying solo down the right flank and he one-timed it from the top of the circle and into the back of the net.
Two two-minute minors on Josh Jooris with five minutes remaining in the game looked like the perfect opportunity to notch the game-tying goal, but the Tigers couldn't get anything by Grosenick, who finished the game with 17 saves as Union outshot Princeton 45-19 in the game.Bonar matched his career high of 42 saves as the Tigers fall to 5-8-4 overall and 4-4-3 in league play.
Princeton will take on Rensselaer tomorrow afternoon, Jan. 12 at 4 p.m.

Sing, Hallelujah!
New owner is bringing the glory back to the Deer Lodge
By Shane Cohn 02/28/2013
If the walls of Ojai's Deer Lodge could speak, they'd tell of a wonderful rustic outpost that, since 1932, has been a haven for those looking to get away, have a stiff drink and a fine meal in peace. It would talk about the musicians, the bikers, the cowboys — and girls — the celebrities and local residents who, for the brief moments they spent there, could be anonymous enthusiasts of whisky and venison in a place that seemed impervious to time.
But time is the devil's plaything. It gets the best of us all, even the mighty Deer Lodge.
Speak to any local about what had become of the Deer Lodge over the past several years and you'll hear what disappointment sounds like. Weird, they say. Creepy. Bad vibes. Falling apart.
That was, until Tom Doody rode into town.
Three years ago, Doody and his wife moved to Monte Nido, an unincorporated community in the Santa Monica mountains, from Playa del Carmen, Mexico, where he owned the Blue Parrot, a boutique hotel and night club. When he heard about Ojai, he began taking weekend rides on his motorcycle and visiting the Deer Lodge.
"I fell in love with Ojai and the Deer Lodge," says Doody. His weekend visits however, revealed what seemed to be a slow unraveling of the venue. Doody could no longer sit back and let the old Maricopa Highway roadhouse wither away. So he made an offer.
On Dec. 26, he shook hands on the deal and it's been Christmas at the Lodge ever since. It's been steam-cleaned, decorated with new art and lights, and farmer/chef Canon Ciccati is overhauling the menu with nearly 100 percent farm-to-table organic selections, in addition to the Deer Lodge classics.
"The vibe has been cleared," laughs Doody. "It's still Deer Lodge — come as you are. The main mission is to maintain its essence."
What most are excited about is how Doody is working to make the Lodge a venue for top regional and national talent. During the 1980s and '90s Doody ran major music venues in Chicago, like the legendary Metro concert hall that helped break bands such as Smashing Pumpkins, Veruca Salt and 10,000 Maniacs, and he also worked as PR director for the infamous Limelight in New York City.
"It's like taking somebody else's song and making it a hit," said guitar-picker extraordinaire and Ojai resident Jonathan McEuen, about the excitement of the Lodge becoming a premier venue.
McEuen has been gigging at the Lodge for the past two decades, dealing with several changes in ownership. He said he's never seen musicians embrace the change, out of the box, so positively and quickly.
McEuen kicked off the new era with a Sunday night residency that he is reprising this weekend when he returns from a brief tour with Dave Mason. The Lodge has also established musically themed nights, including The Standard, a Tuesday night jazz collective, and the Jamboree, a Thursday night spontaneous music showcase. Each night has an eclectic open stage with featured bands and house musicians.
"This is the most non-pretentious venue in the county," says McEuen. "This isn't a wine and cheese situation, as most of the venues around here are trying to be something they're not."
Doody says the musicianship coming through the Lodge doors is at the top of the food chain. In the past few weeks, national talent like Dave Mason, Lissie, Robben Ford and members of Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros have popped in to be a part of the new Lodge.
But it's more than just the music that fans of the Deer Lodge are proud of.
"The common denominator is the expression of gratitude for taking the Deer Lodge and bringing it back to the community," says Doody.
And if the walls could talk, they might just sing hallelujah.
Deer Lodge, 2261 Maricopa Highway, Ojai, 646-4256.

Women's Swimming & Diving Opens February With Yale Trip For H-Y-P Showdown
Senior Maureen McCotter, a five-time Ivy Championships finalist, talks about the challenges of distance swimming, her thoughts on a final H-Y-P weekend, and the excitement of moving into the championship month of the swimming & diving season. See the video by clicking the link above.
Official practices started in October for the reigning Ivy League champion Princeton women's swimming and diving team, and the Tigers haven't had many opportunities to compete over the last three months. Of course, all the work that was done over the first three months will show in February, which opens with the annual H-Y-P weekend.
Princeton is 3-1 this season, though it shined in its biggest early meet of the season, the 2013 Big Al Open. The reigning Ivy League champion defeated a pair of Ivy rivals in the meet, though it will take on its two most historic rivals this weekend.
While the stakes won't be nearly as high as they will be three weeks later, when all eight league teams travel to Harvard for the 2014 Ivy Championships, the rivalry and excitement in Kiphuth Pool will ensure an exciting meet. The meet will take place over two days, starting Feb. 1 at 6 pm. The meet concludes Super Bowl Sunday at noon.
Of course, the talent certainly won't hurt the meet either. Several of the league's best performers will be in competition, including Princeton senior Lisa Boyce, who has won seven of nine Ivy League individual titles. An All-America last season, Boyce owns the Ivy's best time currently in the 50 free (22.33), the 100 free (48.91), the 100 back (53.25), and the 100 fly (52.76).
Princeton freshman Olivia Chan will be experiencing her first H-Y-P weekend, and she has Top 2 Ivy times in both the 200 breast (2:16.89) and the 200 IM (2:01.86).
The host Yale Bulldogs have arguably the league's best distance swimmer in sophomore Eva Fabian, who owns the Ivy's best times in the 500 (4:47.86), the 1000 (9:49.17) and the mile (16:15.33). Freshman Isla Hutchinson-Maddox owns the Ivy's top time in the 200 fly, though she and Princeton sophomore Nikki Larson are the only two league swimmers to have achieved a B-cut already this season.
Harvard, which won the H-Y-P meet last season before finishing behind Princeton at the Ivy Championships, has Ivy top times in the 200 free (Victoria Chan, 1:46.80) and the 200 back (Danielle Lee, 1:57.36).
Following the H-Y-P meet, Princeton will honor its Class of 2014 during Senior Day on Friday, Feb. 6, against Columbia.

Valeant Pharmaceuticals is paying QLT $112.5 million up front to acquire the latter's Visudyne (verteporfin) therapy for wet age-related macular degeneration. $62.5 million of the total pays for Valeant's rights to the Visudyne business and assets in the U.S., and the other $50 million pays for rights to non-U.S. royalties on Visudyne sales. Valeant will also have to make $5 million in contingent payments relating to the development of QLT's laser program in the U.S., and up to $15 million in contingent payments relating to non-U.S. royalties.
"We are excited about the opportunity to add a complementary product to our growing ophthalmology business," notes J. Michael Pearson, Valeant's chairman and CEO. "Not only will we be able to use Visudyne to better leverage our current ophthalmology sales force with a complementary product to Macugen, we are pleased to add a product that retinal specialists around the country can use as an adjunctive to products like Macugen to improve treatment options."
Valeant took over U.S. rights to the injected age-related macular degeneration drug Mucagen (pegaptanib sodium injection) when it acquired Eyetech in February. Mucagen is a pegylated anti-VEGF aptamer, which is marketed outside the U.S. by Pfizer.
Vancouver-based ocular disease drugs firm QLT announced last month that it was looking to sell off its punctal plug delivery system (PPDS) program for administering drugs to the eye, and was in addition evaluating its Visudyne assets, with a view to focusing resources on its oral synthetic retinoid development program. The firm reported Visudyne sales of $22.3 million for the second quarter of 2012, down 12.4% from the second quarter of 2011. Visudyne sales in the U.S. were $3.9 million, down 39.8%, while sales outside the U.S. were $18.3 million, down 2.9%.
QLT's synthetic retinoid replacement program is headed by the Phase I-stage candidate QLT091001, a synthetic retinoid replacement for 11-cis-retinal, which is in development initially for the treatment of retinal diseases caused by gene mutations that interfere with the availability of 11-cis-retinal, including Leber congenital amaurosis and retinitis pigmentosa.
