You may remember Johnny & Andrea from their gorgeous Royal Canadian Yacht Club engagement session we shot last summer (check it out here!)
These two put together a stunning wedding day, which began at the Fairmont Royal York Hotel in Toronto for the wedding party preparations. The ladies in the wedding party carried special hand bags personally made for each of them by the bride as a very personal and lovely gift.
Andrea wore a very special veil with her gown, that her mother and her grandmother had worn before her on their wedding days. It was so beautiful in the photos and looked amazing on her. Simply timeless!
The big reveal came and Andrea & Johnny got their first look at one another – so romantic! I love doing first looks for brides & grooms as it gives us lots of time for photos before the rush of the day really begins.
Along with the wedding party we walked along Front Street shooting in various spots along the way. I love the image with all the pigeons flying in the alleyway around Andrea & Johnny!
The beautiful wedding ceremony took place at the gorgeous Christ the Good Shepherd Ukrainian Catholic Church in Toronto, with a reception following at The Country Club, also in Toronto. One important cultural tradition we saw take place at the reception was the Ukrainian tradition of the parents meeting Andrea & Johnny when they entered the reception and presenting them with a tray of symbolic gifts: bread, salt, honey and wine. Bread represents nature's bounty, salt is a necessity of life, honey-the sweetness of life and wine — prosperity. The newly-formed families unite in a toast.
A beautiful reception followed (with many emotional speeches – these two are clearly very loved), and we even were lucky enough to see an absolutely stunning sunset in the sky – perfect for a few final bride & groom portraits on the balcony.
Congratulations Andrea & Johnny – we wish you all the very best in your marriage and life together!

Non-Surgical Gum Therapy in Burlington Ontario
Gum diseases are actually much more common than we think. A lot of people suffer from one or another type of gum disease and this can occur at any given age. Most periodontal or gum diseases at the beginning are very subtle and do not show any prominent signs or symptoms until they actually become severe. As the disease grows in strength, symptoms such as bad breath, loose teeth and swollen gums that bleed easily while brushing, start surfacing. While a gum disease in an aggravated state may require surgical treatment, in the initial stage it can be treated by non-surgical gum therapy.
Most periodontal diseases start in between teeth, in areas that are out of reach to toothbrush bristles. Accumulation of plaque in such areas and the creation of crevices by bacteria are the primary causes leading to periodontal diseases. Aggressive brushing and flossing can also gradually have an adverse impact on gum health as well.
Non-surgical gum therapy targets plaque that is hidden in gaps between teeth and gums, looking for signs of bacteria and cleaning them comprehensively.

Anyone who knows me very well could probably tell you that I'm a pretty big fan of Particle, a provider of hardware and software components for building internet-connected products (IoT). I love their product suite because they have abstracted the common functions of IoT products into easy-to-use components while still allowing access to all the nitty-gritty details for those of us who need to get down to that level.

Embedded Systems
A Simple Message Queue for C
Let's face it, when you're doing embedded development, you really don't have a lot of great tools at your disposal. If you're lucky, you might have a C99-compliant compiler and a microcontroller with floating-point hardware and DMA. If you're unlucky you might have a microcontroller that doesn't actually have a stack and a compiler that doesn't support using structures as function arguments!

Using Rust in an Embedded Project: A Simple Example
I've written a few posts on using Rust for embedded projects:
- Rust Sysroots for Easier Embedded Projects
- Using Rust 1.8 Stable for Building Embedded Firmware
- Generating Rust Bindings for Embedded Libraries
- Embedded Rust Right Now!
I think they gave a decent overview of a couple of tricky parts, but as always, the devil is in the details. To help with all the gritty details, I've written up a more complete example. Read more on Using Rust in an Embedded Project: A Simple Example…
Rust Sysroots for Easier Embedded Projects
Rust now has usable support for Rust sysroots. This makes it must easier and useful to use cargo to build your embedded projects. You should be able to even use stable rust once 1.9 is out, but you will have to use a nightly for now.
Using Rust 1.8 Stable for Building Embedded Firmware
A lot of things have changed since I wrote my last blog post on using Rust to build embedded firmware.
Since Rust 1.6 was released,
libcore is now stable, and
nostd is now a stable feature. This means we can now build Rust libraries for our embedded firmware using the official stable version of the compiler!

Assembling Your Computer's Brain, Byte by Byte
Computers are amazing machines. They can perform massive amounts of stuff every second, and they're being put into everything around us to make the things we interact with on a day-to-day basis smarter and better.
This is made all the more remarkable by the fact that computers are astonishingly dumb. My favorite explanation of just how dumb computers are can be found in one of my favorite recorded talks, Richard Feynman's lecture about computer heuristics. (Start around the 10-minute mark for the particularly relevant bit.)
One of the secrets to making these dumb machines do smart things is the way applications get loaded and executed within your OS. But have you ever thought about who loads the code that loads your code?

5 Steps to Getting Started with Embedded Programing
I've been getting asked the question, "So how would I get started with embedded development?" more and more often lately.
This is actually a really tricky question. It's not like, "How would I get started with Haskell?" or "How would I get started with Rust?" Embedded development is such a weird and diverse thing that it's almost like asking, "How do I get started with programming?" except in an alternate universe where 128k is still a lot of RAM. I'm not sure where to even begin.

Focus-Handling Methods for Qt Quick StackViews
On my current project, we're building the GUI in Qt 5. It's (mostly) open-source, has some really intriguing platform support, and Qt Quick 2 has a fairly advanced model for both keyboard focus and transitioning focus between widgets just with the keyboard.
When I started work on a spike to prove out some ideas I had about using a Qt Quick StackView to structure the navigation of our app, I still managed to run into some problems with transitioning focus between widgets. Read on for my solution. Read more on Focus-Handling Methods for Qt Quick StackViews…
Generating Rust Bindings for Embedded Libraries
As I talked about in my last post, Embedded Rust Right Now!, you can call C functions directly from Rust without much difficulty. However, you normally still need to provide Rust types and prototypes for the corresponding C types and functions you want to use. This can be a time-consuming and error-prone process.
Fortunately there is a tool call rust-bindgen that can generate bindings automatically directly from C header files! It's a little trickier when you're cross compiling to target embedded systems, but you just need to pass some extra clang flags to bindgen.

Sunflowers have been cultivated in North and South America, China and Russia for years. In Russia, one of the largest sunflower-seed producing nations, traditional harvesting methods are still sometimes seen. Once the seeds are ready for harvesting a disk with nails attached to a handle, is placed on top of the seed-head. By turning the handle the nails rake out the seeds, which are then collected in sacks.
The pith of the sunflower stalk, which is the lightest substance known, is a common buoyancy aid. Sunflowers are used to feed both animals and humans, with a bottle of sunflower oil, which is considered equal to olive or almond oil in nutritional value, to be found in most homes. From the practical to the purely decorative the versatility of sunflowers is unique.
Not only does the sunflower plant turn to follow the sun passage across the sky but it also resembles it with its open round flower face surrounded by a wreath of yellow ray-like petals.
And it is this ability to boldly face the sun's direct rays that give the sunflower its special properties. By absorbing so much sunshine it becomes enriched in vital minerals and vitamins, such as B-Complex, which are essential for turning food into mental and physical energy, and E, an antioxidant that protects cells, especially from cancer.
The centre cellular structure of the sunflower houses the growing seeds. These can be eaten raw or roasted. Scattered into salads, mixed into biscuits and added to nut-roast mixtures, they may also be used as a dressing to garnish fruit salads and other desserts.

I don't know what to say. My Hepatitis seems more advanced than yours but far better managed. Transplants? Depends on how you contracted HCV and how the system works were ever you are (I'm eligible in Australia). Not just low protein but no salt at all (most recommend you stop at 1250mg). I could write pages on this subject but you will have to research yourself.

Many Louisiana parents agree that successful child rearing often involves the need to make difficult decisions that sometimes include saying or doing things that might disappoint their children. For instance, if your child asks permission to go to a party, you might believe something or someone there could jeopardize your child's well-being. Even though you want him or her to be happy, you might say "no" because you want what's best for your son or daughter.

Case study: Student society drives awareness of cancer symptoms
Around 300 teenagers and young adults die from cancer each year. But with almost all public health messages related to cancer targeted at an older population, one Manchester medical student noticed a gap in information for young people.
In September 2014, student James Adams set up the Cancer Awareness in Teenagers and Young Adults Society (CATS) at Manchester Students Union to encourage more young people to be aware of the signs of cancer and produce graduates who take responsibility for their own health.
With the support of the Teenage Cancer Trust and the University's academic staff, CATS has successfully engaged around 1,000 students over the past year through social media and events designed to create discussion and interest.
"We are student led, as the best people to reach students are other students"James Adams / Medical student and founder of CATS
"About 2,200 people between the ages of 15 and 24 are diagnosed with cancer every year", says James. "Hence the need to check things out."
"At CATS we're all about making sure young people know the common signs and symptoms of cancer. We encourage people to be familiar with their bodies, and to keep an eye out for any signs that could indicate something is wrong. We encourage anyone who notices these signs to go and see their GP and share their concerns."
Co-led by Dr Martin McCabe, Academic Lead and Senior Clinical Lecturer, the CATS campaign uses 'awareness by stealth' techniques to convey messages about the clinical signs and symptoms of cancer in order to encourage young people to see their GP if they recognise any changes.
Their messaging is short, sharp and engaging – delivered by a little feline character that can be seen around the Manchester campus.
"We are student led, as the best people to reach students are other students", explains James.
"We run events such as acoustic nights, comedy nights, pub quizzes, lectures, workshops and more. We work with other student groups to get the message out to as many people as possible."
"We put out our material onto different social media platforms, and print onto things like beer mats as opposed to the more traditional leaflets, we want to reach students in any way we can."
The hope is to reduce the time for diagnosis in young people and to ultimately improve the clinical outcomes of these types of cancers.
CATS continues to grow their successful awareness campaign and just one year later, they launched a second branch at Cambridge University. This was followed by CATS London East and then in October 2016, the fourth CATS site in Liverpool.
You can find out more about CATS Manchester on their Facebook page.

Outdoor Shooting Area
The wheels of time, together with modernity, have changed many aspects of Egypt's social life, details of many of our building and architectural styles have been lost in places linked to the country historical and political periods.
Overpopulation in some areas has also prevented on-real site shooting of drama productions. It was therefore necessary for us at EMPC to revisit the past and to recreate it, paying as much attention as possible to details of the different architectural and life styles.
EMPC has 15 outdoor shooting areas, each representing a period of Egypt's history.
As for the design;the facades are liable to be changed to accommodate low-cost production needs.
There are also buildings, in different sizes, that could be used for indoor shooting purposes.
These have access to EMPC support facilities, make-up rooms, restaurants and hotels.

Why talking can alleviate anxiety and depression
Talking is something that we all do without a second thought. Yet holding a conversation can have powerful effects on how we feel. Getting things off your chest has even been heralded as one of the most effective ways to cope with anxiety symptoms and signs of depression.
Research has shown that people who have active social lives and lots of friendships are less likely to suffer from depression. This could well be because they are not bottling their worries or fears up, and have people to discuss things with. Studies have also shown that feeling isolated carries a greater risk of experiencing symptoms of anxiety or depression.
Even if you aren't blessed with a thriving social life, there's no reason to suffer in silence. There is plenty of support around, so you can find a caring and friendly ear to listen to you. Many people actually find it easier discussing how they feel with someone they don't know. At first, it might seem odd pouring your heart out to a complete stranger, but it's often easier to let go of inhibitions when you don't feel that you're being a burden.
Talking with a trained professional, such as a counsellor, psychiatrist or your GP, can let you see your problems in a different light. Although a trained professional won't give you answers to all the problems, they can help you develop strategies to cope, as well as suggest ways to alleviate depression symptoms. Talking therapies can be used in conjunction with other therapies, or can even work just as effectively as a standalone measure for those who don't want to go down the route of taking medication to relieve their symptoms.
Often, talking to people who are experiencing the same problems or symptoms as yourself can be really comforting and a big support. It can help sufferers feel that they're not alone. It is estimated that around one in four of us will experience a mental health problem in any one year, so someone you know may also be going through the same as you. Talking about your feelings can often be the start to your recovery. If you feel that you could benefit, please contact us today for a consultation with Dr Ahmed.

Wall Street Hits the Highway

A second round with the book doctors
February 28, 2017 § Leave a comment
In May 2015, I submitted a novel I had spent nine months writing to a book editor attached to a consultancy. When three weeks or so later, I received the editor's report, I was pleasantly surprised. Of course, the book was not ready for publication, but a number of good things were therein noted. And my fears as to whether I had managed to maintain a reader's interest as the book progressed, through different time periods, were allayed. Nor did the book editor take issue with an aspect of the plot which I thought was far-fetched. As my greatest fears proved groundless, I was very receptive to the criticism. The most significant criticism: the "hero" was not sympathetic. A second criticism: there was not enough period detail. These revelations did not disturb me. The editor was right.
I ended up re-writing the entire novel, and, I believed, very much improving it. I made cuts and I made additions. There was a net gain of 20,000 words. I re-submitted the novel to the same consultancy. I was disappointed that the same editor was not available to critique my book. Six weeks or so later, I received the report. The change of editor was not for the best.
My "hero" had now gone from being unsympathetic to being a cipher. Even I don't understand how he became fainter, if I had tried to make him more solid. The part of the book I feared to be far-fetched was found to be so. I did not peruse the entire critique; it was long and detailed: too detailed. Wasn't it enough to say that my hero was a cipher without insulting the hero's name as well? Did it matter? If the book wasn't good in its essentials, why gripe about small details? There were positive comments. The book had "promise". The word promise, I recall, was used in such a way as to indicate that I was not to read too much into the word.
I was not so much back to square one but to a minus square. Was I then to re-write the book a third time and have a third person look it over and find it wanting?
All this happened last April. The book has remained untouched. (I wanted to continue writing so I turned to writing plays.) However, in December I had an epiphany. I rebelled against my dejection. I decided that the editor had gone too far in his criticism. I had handed him too much authority: the authority to tell me my work was not good enough.
My work cannot become something that it is not. Most of the time, it will not be what people want. The real challenge is not writing a publishable book but discovering the person who will like your book enough to publish it.
Agents advise writers to send in sample chapters and a synopsis. But there are usually restrictions too. For example, you shouldn't be sending, at the same time, a great many sample chapter out to other agents because you might be wasting agents' time. Agents might end up reading something that is snapped up by another agent. In whose dreams? Never having had an offer of representaiion by any agent, I think the agents' fears of having their time wasted are largely unfounded. In truth, only the unpublished writer's time will be wasted. Some agents do represent unsolicited submissions. But, I think, the odds are 100 to 1.
What do I suggest? Perhaps you discover a remote connection, amongst your acquaintance, to the publishing industry. Perhaps this remote connection will introduce you to someone more directly connected to publishing and so on. And if you have the time and money to flood the world with your sample chapters, perhaps do that. Make it your aim to collect refusals and rejections. Perhaps, a 100 or 1,000. When the bulky envelope drops through the letter box, you can say: "Success!"

Ira Einhorn, Co-Founder of Earth Day, is the Unicorn KillerApril 24th, 2009 - 12:35 am ICT by GD
Ira Einhorn, an icon of the green movement and the self-declared co-founder of Earth Day, is a cold blooded murderer and serving a life sentences for the murder. His name Einhorn means "unicorn" in German and he is now called The Unicorn Killer.
When he was a student has the University of Pennsylvania Einhorn was romantically involved with Holly Maddux, a graduate student from the Bryn Mawr college for five years. In 1977, Maddux broke up with Einhorn and moved to New York city where she became involved with another man. Einhorn was furious when he heard this and asked Maddux to get back to Philadelphia to take her things away from the apartment they were sharing. Maddux agreed and visited the apartment. She was seen again in a badly decomposed state in a trunk inside Ira Einhorn's closet. He was then charged for murder.
Just before the trial of the murder Einhorn flew to Europe and lived there for sixteen years and took a Swedish wife called Annika Flodin before he was extradited from France to the US in 1997 to serve a life sentence. The conviction was done in absentia in 1993.
He stood in his own defense and said that Maddux was killed by CIA agents who were trying to frame him. Two hours of deliberation later the jury did not find the testimony credible and confirmed the conviction. Einhorn is currently at the state prison in Houtzdale in central Pennsylvania.
He was on stage at the first Earth Day event as the master of ceremonies and is said to be instrumental in the creation of Earth Day in 1970.

Title of Bulletin Board: Parent PE Communication, Motivation and Assessment
Category: Parents
Suggested Grade Level: All
Materials: Paper
This board was created as a way for teachers to allow parents to see what is going on in our physical education class. It has 3 sections.
The first is the Homeroom section. This uses QR codes so parents can join an album I created with the Homeroom app to follow what we are doing in PE.
The second part is badges we will be using throughout the year. These badges can be earned by students.
The last section is slots for the Plickers assessment cards. We use Plickers for some of our assessments.

I make no apologies for believing in capitalism. I believe that the opportunity to generate and retain one's own wealth is a driving force for not only improving our environment, but also for individual and societal advancements. I believe that when businesses that are respectful of the environment and advancing of the human condition are profitable, we all benefit.
To me, that is the very essence of 'sustainability' -- creating and building that virtuous cycle so that the net gains outweigh the net costs of doing business.
In order to do this, we must evolve the ways that businesses -- and we as individuals -- do three things; we must learn to change the ways that we appraise, engage and enhance human, ecological and financial resources.
Human Resources
First and foremost, we must no longer be satisfied with status quo that 'people are our most valuable asset.' Instead, we ought to encourage and help businesses to treat people as their most valued assets. The difference is far more than simple semantics. When something is considered to be valuable, there are two courses of actions -- save or spend. In the real world that often equates to putting something into a vault to protect them, or spending them in order to liquidate their value (to purchase something else). On the other hand, something that is valued is often showcased and allowed to shine, like a painting on a wall or a classic automobile that is driven and shown.
For companies valuing human assets often equates to keeping them in place in their current jobs ('Bob's an integral member of my team, I don't want to lose him') or burning them out through overwork ('I always put Sue on every project because no matter what it takes -- long hours, weekends -- she never fails to deliver the goods.') Human assets that are valued, on the other hand, are encouraged, advanced and allowed to fulfill their true potential. They are encouraged to take risks, learn from them and become even more valuable.
Ecological Resources
We also must change the way that many corporations (and we as individuals) value, engage and enhance ecological resources. Most people who work with natural resources are all too aware of their finite nature. The fishermen who work the Grand Banks of Newfoundland understand the need to maintain healthy stocks to maintain their livelihood. They don't see reasonable conservation techniques as a threat to their future, but rather a guarantee. It is when fishing becomes mass-production, with large factory trawlers that are capable of denuding the ocean reefs as they seine the oceans for huge quantities that the personal connection is lost. Companies that rely on timber for their products recognize that reforestation is critical, not only for the planet, but to provide a continuing supply within proximity to their processing facilities.
This is a value that existed earlier in our history. Even when facing the seemingly endless bounty of a new continent, George Washington -- perhaps because he was a farmer and had a deep connection to the land -- left explicit instructions not to cut down live trees to build fences at Mount Vernon.
Financial Resources
For too many people, compliance with regulations is seen as the extent of 'fiscal responsibility.' If it is not illegal, it must therefore not be wrong. This belies the important distinction, and gap, between what is right and what is codified into law. The collapse of the global economy was due, in large part, to actions that were legal, based on law that was far behind such arcane concepts as Collateralized Debt Obligation (CDOs). Good governance is more than simply not engaging in malfeasance.
Proper fiscal responsibility (including saving for our own retirements) requires us to understand the value and importance of money. Overvaluing money (above all else) often leads to morally questionable decision making. This lesson goes back to the New Testament; "The love of money is a root of all kinds of evil" (1 Timothy 6:10). Too often this is misquoted as "money is the root of all evil," leading some to dismiss the desire to earn money as an inherent flaw within capitalism. In point of fact, wanting a better life for one's self and one's significant others is the strength behind capitalism. The quick-buck-and-the-heck-with-the-consequences attitude that became so vogue in the dot.com era was not and is not typical. For most of the history of capitalism 'built to last' was the norm.
Most companies, it should be noted, operate with both short and long term goals and plans. Ultimately this should be built in, because companies -- particularly those that are publicly traded -- must meet the needs of both buy-and-hold investors and day trading speculators. A review of the portfolio of most major successful enterprises reveals that the majority of people who are investing in the company are looking for the longer-term results. That includes employees who, while they may not have shares, have a huge investment -- themselves -- in the company's long-term viability.
The link between profitability and prosperity
Individual wealth creation -- the ability to earn and retain capital -- is a tremendous force for change and demonstrates the concept of a virtuous cycle through the overlap between these three (human, ecological and economic) sets of assets. Critics are all too eager to point out that successful capitalism changes the way the environment looks; as anyone who has seen a factory and the environs nearby can attest.
But they may be too quick to overlook the many benefits that are associated with that same operation, including increasing quality of homes that people live in, the schools that can afford to pay qualified teachers, the influx of skilled labor opportunities to support the operation -- and the community -- and the medical professionals that serve to improve the health and well being of everyone.
Another benefit of a wealth-generating population is the link between individual and public gain. Companies that are profitable pay more in taxes, as do individuals. That allows for improvements to the infrastructure and the general living conditions of everyone in the community. Schools, roads, transportation linkage to other towns and cities are all tremendous benefits to the community at large.
Economic independence fosters freedom
There is another major benefit of capitalism -- freedom. It is important to note that capitalism is an economic, not a political model. However, the ability to earn and retain one's earnings is hugely empowering for anyone seeking a better situation in life. Immigrants who could afford even the cheapest passage came to America in droves on ships to escape religious, political and/or economic oppression. The phrase 'the land of opportunity' describes the optimism that spurred them across the open seas to an unknown future.
Today the ability to earn and retain the financial fruits of one's own labors continues to be a driving force that changes lives and societies. It may be a factor in the low marriage and high divorce rates in the United States, as women no longer rely on a 'breadwinner' they can stay independent longer, and are not tied economically to stay in oppressive marriages. As those fiscal pressures ease, societal norms change. While it is true that we still have a long way to go to achieve economic parity, the roles of gender in the workplace and our society have transformed radically since the days of World War 2, when the men went off to fight and women first entered the workforce in massive numbers.
This ultimately is where people, planet and prosperity come together -- when we change the way that we value and engage with human, ecological and economic assets -- we live a more deliberate and conscious existence, knowing that we cannot take any for granted, else they may be gone before we realize what is happening.

Randal Grichuk and Pete Kozma have made the opening day roster of the St. Louis Cardinals, according to an MLB.com report.
Grichuk is hitting .262 for the spring with a team-leading four home runs in 42 at-bats. He's driven in 10 runs and struck out nine times while walking eight. While Grichuk has supplied the power, Kozma has been the leading spring hitter for the Redbirds in other areas.
The former starting shortstop who lost his job when the Cardinals signed Jhonny Peralta as an offensive boost, Kozma is hitting .425 if 40 Grapefruit League at-bats. While his bat has raised eyebrows this spring, those numbers probably had a little bit less to do with his roster spot than the fact that he's expanded his defensive abilities to become a legit utility player by learning to play in the outfield.
Kozma was never questioned for his defense in the middle infield. He can offer plus defense on the infield corners and he at least seems serviceable as an outfielder.
For the time being, it looks like the Cardinals will hang on to Peter Boujos who followed a disappointing debut season with St. Louis -- and complained openly about his playing time -- with a completely discouraging spring.
The team announced Bourjos will be on the big league club while infielder Ty Kelly has been sent to Class AAA Memphis.
Bourjos hit .128 in 39 spring at-bats, striking out 10 times while walking four in Grapefruit League action. The statistics are a small sample. But the lackluster appearance came from a guy who was supposed to be rejuvenated by surgery to repair a hip impingement and who should have been eager to remake his image in the minds of his manager and general manager. He batted only .231 in 2014 with 78 strikeouts and 22 walks as he lost his job -- TWICE -- to the man he was supposed to replace in the the starting lineup, Jon Jay.
Bourjos showed nothing to indicate he planned to challenge Jay for the starting centerfield job. Instead, he'll join a crowded outfield picture as a defensive specialist.
I'd love to see Bourjos figure out what's going wrong at the plate and make good on his prediction before last season that he was going to steal 40 bases a year. But I don't see how that's going to happen if he's getting a handful of at-bats a week. And I think the Cardinals are going to be hurt by not keeping an extra infielder around instead of a sixth guy who can play in the outfield.
Opening day roster:
Starting pitchers: Adam Wainwright, John Lackey, Lance Lynn, Michael Wacha, Carlos Martinez
Bullpen: Trevor Rosenthal, Jordan Walden, Carlos Villanueva, Seth Maness, Kevin Seigrist and Randy Choate, Matt Belisle
Starting eight: C Yadier Molina, 1B Matt Adams, 2B Kolten Wong, 3B Matt Carpenter, SS Jhonny Peralta, LF Matt Holliday, CF Jon Jay, RF Jayson Heyward
Bench: C Tony Cruz, UT Pete Kozma, OF Randal Grichuk, 1B/3B Mark Reynolds,

Children with cerebral palsy and their families may have needs that make camping difficult or seemingly inaccessible. Through an explanation of the research backing the benefits of camping, this paper makes it clear that camping is a worthwhile activity that can be optimized through modifications. Understanding cerebral palsy and the steps of basic camping activities, it is possible to create modifications to increase family and child wellness while camping. Through a hypothetical case study, a specific look can be had at the ways to prepare for an optimal camping experience- from adapted equipment, to modified preparatory strategies. Through a review of the literature and analysis of a specific child with cerebral palsy and his family, this paper aims to educate readers on camping, cerebral palsy, and modifications, while serving as a resource for children and families planning to camp.

Discussion in 'NDS - Flashcarts and Accessories' started by caffolote, Aug 15, 2008.
Can it work on the GBA for just the ROMS?
I believe so if you get a case for it so it fits in the original Gameboy Advance but you still will need a Nintendo DS to transfer the games onto the EZ Flash 3 in 1. It may be best just to get a GBA flashcart.
Yeah if you want a card just for GBA games you're better off buying a proper GBA card. You'll only be able to store one game at a time in NOR memory to play on the GBA using the 3-in-1.
Well technically, the EZ-Flash V's latest beta has multi-ROM support, so if you have that SLOT-1 card you can have as many games as you can fit into 32MB on it.
32MB isn't much. It'll only fit 2 Pokemon games. Just go with an SD SLOT-2 card. Then you can put a 1GB or 2GB card in and basically have all the games you'll ever need.
Just get:
And buy a MicroSD. And you're all set to go.
Sorry, but I want to get a Cyclo DS. I rather get the EZ Flash 3 in 1 seperately than buy it in a bundle with another Slot 1 card. Also, I'm buying from RHS and Dealwoot, but not DealExtreme.
No, bad advice seeing that he wants it for GBA gaming, and this slot 2 can't fit into any GBA..He'll have a really bad time finding a GBA casing for EZ 3-in-1..
You just confused me.
Sorry, I should express a bit better..
With this EZ Flash V Plus, you get EZ 3-in-1 Lite slot 2, it can't physically fit into GameboyAdvance..
He doesn't want to play GBA games on NDS, he asked for playing on GBA system..So he needs EZ Flash 3-in1 with GBA casing, ant that's a bit harder to find...(especially if you're searching to buy just the case)..
Do they sell the case at places like RHS or Dealwoot? Also, does the EZ Flash support GBA-GC connectivity?
Okay. I understand. Buy why didn't he post in the GBA section if its for his Game Boy Advance and not the Nintendo DS.
Probably just an honest mistake.
Sorry, I thought since the EZ Flash 3 in 1 is compatible with DSL I would get more answers here.
As long as you have a rom flashed into the NOR ram it should work like a real cart, so meaning it will be usable on any GBA slot.
However, you'll have to find the phat sized 3-in-1 for that to happen, the lite sized won't fit any others.

1. This is an appeal by the defendant in a suit for ejectment. The plaintiffs brought the action on the allegation that the disputed tenure was the non-transferable holding of their tenant Saroda Charan Ghose who conveyed it to the defendant on the 3rd May, 1914, who is in occupation as a trespasser without title. The defendant contended that the tenancy was not an agricultural but a maurasi mokarrari holding which was transferable by law. The Courts below have on these pleadings considered the question whether the lease was under the Transfer of Property Act or under the Bengal Tenancy Act. They have concurrently come to the conclusion that the lease waa under the Bengal Tenancy Act and the interest of the tenant was not transferable. In this view, the plaintiffs have been awarded a decree for ejectment. In our opinion, it is plain that the Courts below did not consider the real question in controversy in this litigation. It has been found that the origin of the tenancy is not known, though it is stated that the vendor of the defendant was the fourth member of the family who had by inheritance succeeded to the holding. It has also been found that the original purpose of the tenancy is not known. The evidence further established conclusively that the rent ha s never changed although there has been a proportionate reduction by reason of the acquisition of a part of the land for public purposes. The Courts below have finally held that the land is used and has been used for years past in part, for dwelling purposes and in part for horticultural purposes. There is a stray passage in the evidence which may indicate that a part of the land was previously under cultivation. But it is not clear that the distinction between agricultural and horticultural purposes was appreciated when this statement was made by the witness. In view of these facts, it is plain that the question does not arise whether the lease was under the Transfer of Property Act or under the Bengal Tenancy Act. It is not a lease under either of the two Statutes as neither Statute was in existence when the tenancy originated. The real question is whether the tenancy is agricultural or non-agricultural.
2. As already stated, the original purpose of the tenancy is not known. Consequently the principle enunciated in Ismail Khan Mahomed v. Jaigun Bihi (1900) 27 Cal. 570 applies; namely, when the origin of the tenancy and the circumstances attending its creation, are not known, evidence of the mode of dealing with the land demised and the acts and condition of the parties generally constitute the evidence, and indeed may be the only evidence, available to prove the nature of the tenancy. In the case before us a part of the land has been used for dwelling purposes and the remainder as a garden. It is not necessary to consider whether at any previous stage of its history, it was used in part also for agricultural purposes. For it is well settled that the purpose of a tenancy may be altered by consent of the contracting parties and when such alteration takes place, the incidents of the tenancy may not be identical with those at its inception. As regards the nature of the tenancy at the present time, there is little doubt in view of the statement made by the landlord himself, on the 3rd July, 1905, in an apportionment proceeding under the Land Acquisition Act. It was then asserted that the tenant-mother of the transferor of the present defendants held the land for dwelling and other purposes. It is impossible for us to hold, in these circumstances, that the tenancy at the present time is agricultural or that the transferor was a raiyat with a right of occupancy or non-occupancy raiyat. He must be deemed to be a tenant of non-agricultural lands. This leads us to the question, what are the incidents of such a tenancy? Was the tenancy transferable? The defendant has contended that the facts established justify the inference that the tenancy was of a permanent character and was transferable. In support of this view, reliance has been placed upon the cases of Moharam Sheikh Chaprasi v. Talenmddin Kkan (1912) 15 C.L.J. 220 and Shoroshi Charan Ghose v. Bhagloo Sah (1920) 32 C.L.J. 85. In the case of Moharam Sheikh Chaprasi v. Talemuddin Khan (1912) 15 C.L.J. 220, the earlier authorities were reviewed and it was laid down that where the origin of the tenancy was unknown, but the original tenant and his successor had been in occupation of the land for over 60 years on payment of rent which was never varied, and the tenancy was treated by the landlord as heritable and the land was let out for residential purposes, the inference was that the tenancy was in its inception permanent. The presence of a permanent structure on the land was not essential to establish that the tenancy in its inception was of a permanent character. The proposition last mentioned was questioned in the case of Shoroshi Charan Ghose v. Bhugloo Sah (1920) 32 Cc.L.j. 85 but was reaffirmed, and it was specifically laid down that a dwelling house need not be brick-built in order to indicate that the tenancy was intended in its inception to be of a permanent character. The principle deducible from these cases has been affirmed by the Judicial Committee in Surendra Nath Roy v. Dwarka Nath Chakravarty A.I.R. 1919 P.C. 84 and Afzall-un-nissa v. Abdul Karim A.I.R. 1919 P.C. 11 where the decision of this Court in Caspersz v. Kedar Nath [1901] 28 Cal. 738 was followed and applied. It cannot be suggested, as was pointed out in the case of Moharam Sheikh Chaprasi v. Talemuddin Khan (1912) 15 C.L.J. 220 that the question involved is one of fact. The question is a mixed question of fact and law and this accords with the decision of the Judicial Committee in Debendra Nath Das v. Bibudhendhra Monsingh Bhramarbar Roy A.I.R. 1918 P.C. 738 and Rajani Kanta Ghose v. Secretary of State for India A.I.R. 1918 P.C. 95 We are clearly of opinion that the facts found by the Courts below, which are accepted as the basis of our judgment, point to the conclusion that the disputed tenancy was a permanent tenancy of a transferable character and that the defendant-purchaser is not a trespasser as alleged by the plaintiffs.
3. The result is, that this appeal is allowed and the suit is dismissed with costs in all the Courts.

About ChroMedX Corp.
ChroMedX Corp. is a medical technology company focused on the development of novel medical devices for in vitro diagnostics and point-of-care testing. The devices are protected by the Company's issued and pending patents, dealing with blood collection, analysis and plasma/serum processing.
The HemoPalm Handheld Blood Analyzer System is the only handheld blood analysis technology which combines Blood Gases & Electrolytes with full CO-oximetry. Currently this combination is not available on any of the handheld analyzers on the market. Existing technologies require users to purchase a second device to carry out the CO-oximetry. The Company's technology has the advantage of being able to offer a single handheld blood analyzer that provides all the required tests for Blood Gases & Electrolytes, with full CO-oximetry and bilirubin. Another competitive advantage of the HemoPalm system will be its ability to draw capillary blood directly from a pin-prick site into the cartridge, providing an alternative to arterial blood. Drawing arterial blood is painful and can cause nerve damage. CO-oximetry is the measurement of five different hemoglobin species in blood.
The global market for Blood Gases & Electrolytes was estimated to be 1.5 Billion $US in 2015 and is projected to reach over 1.8 Billion by 2020.Website: www.chromedx.com

Imagine walking up a hill, sometime in the night, to an old styled English cottage house that illuminates with tingling lights. The closer you become, the louder the sounds of claps, poetry, and joyful mingling get. As you make your way into the cottage house you find an excited audience surrounding one artist and storyteller after another. Glamorous dangling string lights illuminate the presence of each speaker as he/she steps to thrill the audience with his/her profound messages. Well folks, in actuality this is not too far from reality. On February 11, McMaster Muslims for Peace and Justice (MMPJ), held an enchanting event full of creativity, diversity, and identity empowerment.
MMPJ is a McMaster University club led by an enthusiastic group of students from diverse majors, unified in raising awareness towards social injustice and empowering the Muslim community. Given the rise of Islamophobia as seen in the post-Paris Attacks and in Trump's growing fear mongering tactics, Muslims once again feel the urge to apologize for their existence. As some media outlets continue to stereotype, the majority of Muslims are yet again held accountable for crimes they did not commit and for actions they do not stand for.
Therefore, MMPJ found it necessary to open a safe space for the Muslim youth to express their concerns. The event hosted all types of artists and storytellers who passionately addressed the ludicrousness of bigotry and racism that Muslims are forced to face. Including the irony within the Muslim community who is struggling to attract the youth by its perceived rigidity of what is halal and haram, as painter and speaker Sara Abdul Aziz explains, and who is fearful of addressing mental health and racism within its own community.
Speaker Mohamed Mohamed steps to the front and tells his heart-warming story of saving a person who was attempting suicide, who in his words "saved him" by helping him cope with his loss of a friend to suicide. "Prayer alone is not sufficient enough to solve the issues of mental health," Mohamed explains as he urges the Muslim community to seek help without shame. Not too long after, artist Kaltum Shire powerfully articulates her struggle as an African Canadian Muslim. In a piece of slam poetry Kaltum exclaims "I visited dozens of masjids where strangers slit their feet away from me never wanting to put themselves next to me. This year alone I have been asked by far, far too many people how in the world can I possibly be black, and Muslim, at the same time!"
MMPJ provided a successful model of a diverse event that encompassed people of other faiths, and Muslims from diverse backgrounds including Muslim reverts/converts. The event gracefully ended with a large audience walking off proud of being unapologetically Muslim.

An anonymous tweeter with a mere 18 followers tried to goad Andrew MacDougall, Prime Minister Stephen Harper's director of communications, into an exchange by referring to his boss with a profanity.
Rather than follow the conventional wisdom of ignoring the baited barb, MacDougall parried it and pushed it right back into his would-be tormentor's feed.
"how does it feel to work for the biggest (a**hole) in canada," Oxy28 asked in a tweet directed at MacDougall.
"I wouldn't know. I don't work for you," came the retort.
The instigator is a virtual unknown in the Twitterverse who goes by the name TJ and is a self-professed "proud canadian who's deeply embarrassed" by the Harper regime.
The user later deleted the notorious entry from the string of profanity-laced tirades against the current administration that comprised his Twitter feed.
By then, however, the word was out. The Twitterverse was soon abuzz with reaction to the exchange, with pundits and the populous alike weighing in to support MacDougall.
"Love @PMO_MacDougall's response to heckler," wrote political columnist John Ivison. "Civility is dead on Twitter, so bring it on."
"I applaud your answer @pmo_macdougall. Freedom of speech. We live in Canada, it's a democratic right," tweeted user M_Rogerson4.
Among the praise, however, were a handful of posts criticizing MacDougall for failing to turn the other cheek.
"Actually Andrew, you do work for @oxy28 and every other Canadian. Not just Harper and Conservative voters," read one frequently retweeted barb.
The spat even began generating headlines beyond the Canadian border, with the several Australian news websites running items chronicling the testy exchange.
MacDougall offered no further comment.

**all items purchased by me
Hope everyone had an enjoyable Valentine's Day! I got to go shopping up at Sephora, which to go to that particular location is an hour long drive...but that's all right. I'll have a haul coming up soon of what I got while I was at the mall. So even though I spent the evening away from the Mister, I really enjoyed myself (he was busy anyway). I'll even be going back next month for a beauty event inside of Nordstrom - if we had that store close to where we live I would be in ~trouble~ since the Georgio Armani pretties drew my eye today.
Anyway...on to the post. Normally for Fridays I've been trying to do a review of some sort but I decided that for today, I wanted to share what's currently on my nails. I ended up going for a classic red nail, but then jazzed it up.
I used my Orly Bonder for a base coat. Then I applied 2 coats of butter LONDON Knees Up. I put a coat of NYC Grand Central Station quick dry over my ring and thumb nails, leaving the rest to dry on their own.
butter LONDON's Dictionary, Knees Up is "Brit slang for a drunken party." A bit ironic for me since I think I only have about 3-4 alcoholic drinks over the course of an entire year.
click here to see how it looked when I took the polish bottle out of the set it came in.
For some pretty "love" on my nails, I decided I wanted some heart accents - but not using a glitter polish made up of hearts.
I'll have to do a better post for Lips Are Dripping Honey since I only used it as accents. I'm not sure how limited edition the Carrie Underwood collection is, or if it's going to be like the Selena Gomez & Modern Family collections where they eventually made it to the core line-up on the wall at various stores...at least for a year or so. But since I think I remember reading on their FaceBook page that the collection will be released in two sections over the year, it may indeed be limited edition. There is one more polish I definitely want - the one with the flower glitters, but I haven't seen it come out yet.
What did you have on your nails for the holiday of love? Do you prefer to free-hand art or do you use stamps or stencils?

Sudio Sweden x Lulu Escapes
I'm really happy to have recently collaborated with Sudio Sweden as it has allowed me to discover a new great product ideal for travelling.
Sudio have a range of several earphones and headphones all in different colours ranging from 39€ for basic earphones to 129€ for headphones. I choose the rose gold white Vasa Blå earphones because of the wireless feature, the 8h autonomy, and the compact and stylish design. I have used them at the gym, on my daily wanders around Paris, and will definitely be taking them with me on my next escapes.
As its name suggests, Sudio Sweden is a Swedish earphone brand based in Stockholm. You may already be familiar with their brand from social media as they're all over the place at the moment. This popular trendy brand has become a success and is competing with other earphone brands such as Beats and Bose.
I received my earphones a few days after ordering them and they came in a sleek packaging with easy instructions on how to pair them up with your phone via Bluetooth, a lovely white leather carrying case, interchangeable ear pieces and a white marble design iPhone case.
I honestly love these earphones because they're so light and practical to use, the wires never get tangled, the sound is really clear and the design is so elegant. You can even use them with your phone to call as there's an integrated microphone. These earphones have become one of my new favourite travel accessories and I'm sure you will like them as well.
Remember that with my code "LULUESCAPES" you can get a 15% discount on your own pair of earphones or headphones. Free shipping worldwide!
