You got a Birthday Gift…
Hey Mike,
I wonder if they celebrate birthday's in Heaven? I know you're definitely celebrating today… Auntie Mavis passed away last night. She fell last week and was taken into hospital on Sunday where she was diagnosed with cancer. I find it somewhat ironic that she joined you all in Heaven on your birthday… but it's really comforting as I have a really awesome vision of you both being reunited. Man, she must be so excited to see Grandad and Uncle Jim… bless her. Death is such a funny thing Mike… you cry with sadness that they're gone yet at the same time have all these amazing visions and intense peace of where they are today. I am gutted I didn't get to see her one last time… and that I wont be here for the funeral as I'll be in America… but I know God can see what I'm writing so I'm asking him to ask you to give Auntie Mavis a massive hug and tell her I'll miss her. Or God can just tell her himself haha. I really hope you have an amazing time with her… and I'm really happy for her that she's now Home…

Today You Turn 20…
Dear Mike,
Today you were suppose to turn 20. It's hard to know how to celebrate the day you were born without you… but I think I've come to the conclusion that it's exactly that. A celebration of the day you were born. There's no rule against me doing that. Just because you've gone on a head doesn't mean I can't show my thankfulness that you were apart of my life for 18 years, 6 months, 1 week and 6 days. But when I do think of you… it's so hard. Still. I miss you so much.
Since the 1st of August 2010, the 1 year anniversary of your death I've limited how much I talk about you to others. I value you so much and my thoughts/emotions towards you are so precious and significant that I've come to realise absolutely no one can respond to them to the same level. It's no ones fault… but hearing the words "I'm so sorry, I don't know what to say" over and over again just sounds so flippant. I know people don't have a flippant attitude… but it brings so much hurt anyways. I started to feel like that's all I ever did… talk about you… and I felt like people were getting sick of it. So I just stopped talking about you. But it's been so hard Mike, cos it's meant I've had to stop thinking about you. I couldn't think about you and not talk about it… it was just too much. I've been feeling pretty guilty for this Mike.
I've been feeling guilty over a number of things that I just can't seem to let go. Mike when we were little you and Laura would always get me really angry. One time I asked you to help me with the dishes… I couldn't have been older than 12 years old, which would have made you about 10… and you wouldn't do it. Yet again you wouldn't help me like mum asked. You locked yourself in the bathroom and I screamed the place down at how spoilt you were acting. Finally I managed to get you to open the door and you were in tears saying you had to get this certain piece of homework done. You were so worried. You had a fucking shit time at school most days. Class mates bullied you, hit you, teachers misunderstood you, you got into trouble when it really wasn't your fault… and now I was yelling at you. I was so shocked that you were so worried about your school work and so confused at why you didn't just say "I need to do my homework". I wouldn't have been so bummed out over your "spoilt behaviour". Mike I'm really sorry. I'm really sorry I got so angry with you. I'm sorry I was such a crap sister to you… I'm sorry for all the times I hit you, pinched you, kicked you and all the rest of it when we were little. I'm sorry I always did stuff with Laura and not really with you when we were older. I'm sorry I didn't spend more time with you whilst you were still here… cos that's all I want to do right now. I really miss you…
Mike the other thing I've found hard to let go is… I feel really selfish for sitting in the backseat behind mum when you and your 6 foot body should have been sitting there as you would have had more space. We never realised you were so tall and needed the extra space. You never asked either… That's the bit that I get stuck on… you never said. Mike what else didn't you say… what else didn't you tell us? You never complained and always took the least space. It's funny want you've left me with Mike by dying… the fact that I get completely reduced to tears when I think of these things. I just feel so bad for you… maybe you didn't care and that's why you never said… often I wonder if you were afraid to say something… like with the school work. Logic would be that you would speak up but Mike, you struggle to tell mum and dad you didn't want to go to college anymore, you struggled to tell me you needed to do school work… what else did you struggle to tell us?
Did you struggle with things and felt you couldn't tell us? Mike I don't know how you died. But however you died I feel like I was such a bad sister that you didn't wanna stay and I find it so hard not to feel guilty for that… even though I know it's God who numbers our days. I just have so many thoughts and emotions that are not based on fact or logic or maybe even truth… but this is how I feel. This is why I stopped talking… it's too sensitive to share with other people. I really don't wanna hear someone say "You know that's not true" when I share these things. It's no use trying to address my thoughts like that because these are things that I need to be allowed to expressed and explored. I just don't feel like I have that safe bubble. But I'm not sure what my safe bubble even looks like or who that would include. I just don't have much faith in people… it's not that no one's offering so to speak. I dunno Mike.
Finally… the last thing that I've been finding hard to let go of is the fact that I didn't get you a birthday present for your 18th. Like I said before I was, but then you went and got it… so I didn't know what to get you… and didn't get you anything. But now you're gone I'm like "Great… fucked up that chance whilst I had it". So now it's your birthday today I find my thoughts in a bit of a jumble again… I guess all I have left is a knowledge of a lot of love towards you and thousands of tears. I used about a quarter roll of toilet paper writing this to you but I kinda feel like that's all I can give you now… the storing of honest words, feelings and thoughts. I'm sure Dad's gonna read this and want to talk to me about it haha… Go away dad this is between me and Mike!
Kelly and I went for a walk around Talkin Tarn last week. Watching her two year old boy reminded me so much of you… you without fail would end up filthy or socked everytime we went out as kids. No one could understand how you did it! It was like you'd be lifted from the car and would have it in your mind to just fall in a pond or pile of mud. It made me smile a lot thinking of you and how you would always do that.
Tonight I watched you playing Steve Vai… I really would have liked to have seen you play. I've been thinking about what you would have done if you were still here. You'd have finished Nexus last year… what would you have done these past 4 months as a "graduate"… would you be teaching? performing? Mike will I see you do what you dreamed of when I join you, leading worship? What are you doing in Heaven? Who are you hanging out with these days? I really wish I could see you and talk to you right now… If only Heaven had a phone, having said that I don't think mum or dad would be happy with the phone bill. The family is gonna skype in the morning before Laura goes to school to thank God for your 18 years here, and 20 years in our lives… Laura and I are gonna go up to your grave and bring a Birthday Balloon. You always loved birthdays… and for my sake, it doesn't feel right that there isn't a balloon floating about dedicated to you. We'll bring up the windmill again too. Laura and I are gonna have pizza for super. Cos you liked your pizza.
Anyways Mike… I better leave it as that for now. But I really do miss you and love you so much!

Murphy's Creek
Mum came downstairs today and told me Uncle Bill called from Brisbane. "There's been a really bad flash flood at Graham and Tracy's." Just the kinda news to make your heart skip a beat.
As many already know, Queensland has been experiencing some very heavy rainfall and this afternoon, local time, the rain caused a flash flood to come down the hills and pass through the valley. One area, known as Murphy's Creek, is one of the places that got hit hard. Thankfully Tracy and two of the kids were in Toowoomba in town however, Graham and Nicky are currently stuck in the valley. On one hand it was good news that their house was only knee deep in water, but on the other, their next door neighbours were killed as the flash flood ripped the ground out from under the house and carried them, as well as the house, away.
Please pray for the mother who is alive but now grieving the loss of her home, husband and young daughter. Please pray for all those missing and who have died. Emergency services do not know the extent of the damage yet but some suggest approximately 30 people are missing and 8 have died, including children. Please pray for Graham and Nicky's safety as emergency services are still finding it hard to reach the isolated area of the valley and the range. Please pray for all those who's families have been broken and homes destroyed. Earlier this afternoon there were news reports of a 7 meter wall of water travelling through the areas, so basically an inland tsunami. Please pray God calms the storms and protects everyone from any more lives being taken.
Check out the link for a video from the news today. Note that there have been more deaths since this video was taken.
A Lazy Sunday
So I was supposed to get an early night on Saturday but I ended up chatting to people on Facebook, editing photos and writing emails. So I ended up getting outta bed at 1.45pm… oops. After a long shower I put a hair mask in, cooked a pop tart and walked around the house waiting for Laura to finish having her shower. Finally when everyone was showered Laura and I dyed Megan's hair purple. Dad helped by pretending to pour Gin on her. That evening we had six people over for dinner. The new OM family that live down the road from us. When they left Megan and I stayed up watching, "My Sister's Keeper". It's the same director of the "The Notebook", but whether you liked the Notebook or not I would definitely recommend watching this movie. If you ever wanna understand more of the dynamics of sickness, death, loss, change and playing God in regards to messing around with creation… this is one to watch! But you have been warned, it's a tear jerker!
Week 1 of Jan 2011…
Hmm, what have I been up to in the past few days. Well, Sunday evening I ended up going to the cinema to see "The Tourist". It was alright! Unexpected twist which was good, and it was about time there was a decent film out that didn't have any sex scenes! Having said that, common Angelina play something else! The spy/thief/cop role is getting boring! She's such a great actress who is up for a good challenge… so expand the skill woman! Johnny Depp, yeah he put his spin on things to make something that isn't funny to be funny… but his comedy is limited. This isn't a movie to watch if you're expecting full on laughs. "20 million dollars and you end up with a face like that…" was the highlight quote of the movie… and "oops, I spilt the popcorn" was the quote of the night from Tessa. There was about 15 of us that went. So that was my adventure for the day on Sunday.
Monday I spent mainly working on application forms. Josiah left early Monday morning and we had some friends come over in the evening which was nice; the meal was Monday's adventure. Tuesday my adventure was going into town and powering through applications. I can't really remember what I did on Tuesday. Wednesday Megan arrived for a couple days. I don't really remember much of Wednesday either. However, I do remember Thursday. Megan, mum and I spent a good portion of the afternoon planning a birthday present for Laura the following day. However we made multiple calls to various places, kept forgetting our pre-arranged commitments and goodness knows what else. Thursday I was up until 4am… so really it was now Friday morning… working on a menu for Laura's birthday meal with her friends the following weekend. I'm going to attempt to make a 10 course meal for about 10 people! I'm excited! Friday Laura, Megan and I went to a beauty salon. We didn't tell Laura what we were up to and pulled her outta school 20minutes early. All we told her was we would show up in a taxi at 3pm and she had to be there waiting. Laura went for a wax treatments, I went for a predicure, and Megan went for both. Was pretty fun!
Last night we finished off wrapping Laura's presants and I made the kitchen really nice for her. This morning (Saturday) Megan, dad and I cooked up a storm! The breakfast menu consisted of waffles, strawberries, raspberries, whipped cream, maple syrup, eggs, bacon, onions, tomatoes, toast, coffee, orange juice and champagne! It was yum! In-between food Laura opened her presents. One for her gifts was a driver's provisional so everyone except mum went for a drive. Dad's soooooooooo stressy! DON'T let him teach you how to drive! 😛 The rest of the day involved making a birthday ice cream cake, eating indian food, playing rook and watching "Matilda".
So here's something new to share. I'm heading over to America in 17 days to hang out with a good friend for two weeks. I'm heaps excited! I'll get to hang out with Todd and Karen for a couple days then I'll be going onto New York for a couple days. Seriously can't wait! Between now and then I have a bunch of stuff I need to do… everything takes forever to do at the moment. But the aim is to get a bunch of these tasks done… on that note… I better write a list of these things down so it can act like a bit of a tick list.
Life is busy and to be honest I don't really have a desire to blog at the moment. But I'll try and keep posting more often 🙂
A Week of Eves and Days
So, Josiah arrived on Christmas Eve and I think Laura peed herself with excitement. The evening was spent wrapping final presants, watching movies, eating food, chilling in the jacuzzi… I didn't go in… I was too busy being Santa. I think I make a great Santa because Christmas day saw presants being opened over a period of 11 hours… with breaks. I think the family got fed up by 7pm 😛 Christmas night Laura, Josiah and I stayed up watching 3 different movies. "The Ghosts of Girlfriends Past", "The Time Traveller's Wife" and "Free Willy". Between the 4 family members we got a total of 19 movies and the entire collection of "Friends"… which is 40 dvds long. Did I tell you we shop at "Pound Land" ???? 😛
Boxing Day onwards I have mainly been at home working on getting a job and other random projects. One morning we sat down as a family to discuss the "Michael Knight Trust". We have some exciting projects coming up as well as in the process of building relationships with various people. I feel really torn. Right now I would love to solely work on the Michael Knight Trust however, I need a paying job. Subsequently I wont have time to concentrate on both "projects" which is actually really disappointing because the Michael Knight Trust is where my heart is.
Each year we go to MTO (Missionary Teens Only) camp and one evening about 20 of us got together ate an insane amount of food, played games, talked…. the next night, New Years Eve was spent back at the same house, with most of the young people from the night before, with more insane amounts of food… sadly for me I started to get a migraine… AGAIN… about an hours before midnight. Whilst Laura and Josiah slept over with the other young people I went home and vomited my guts up for three hours. However I did get to see the big New Year countdown in London live on TV. One day it'd be cool to see it in person!
For me my migraines are not stopped with over the counter medication and the only thing that works is to sleep for several hours. But the pain is so bad and I keep throwing up so I can't sleep… eventually exhaustion takes over and I fall asleep. Well, NY's eve it just wasn't happening. After three hours it was reaching 3.20am and I thought to myself "God, this is RIDICULOUS! I have been getting migraines since I was 11 years old! I have spent more nights trying to get rid of a migraine than sleeping peacefully in the past 11 years. Why don't you just HEAL ME." I was getting pretty pissed off over it all and just wanted it to all go away. Well slowly but surely… the vomiting eased and stopped; and eventually the pain eased and stopped too. Never in 11 years has that happened.
My family and have never done New Year's resolutions… studies have shown they have a negative effect on the person making the resolution. But one life characteristic I'd like to adapt is to make every day an adventure in one way or another. I tend to do that already but I wanna try and increase it. So yesterday's adventures included being sick and booking a train ticket for an adventure coming up haha. Today I'm working on more job stuff and tonight I'm hoping to go to the cinema to see "The Tourist"…

100% polyester (PET) from worn out but recycled PET bottles results in a material that is soft and nice to walk on. Also, PET bottles that are recycled and converted into textile fibers help to reduce overall consumption of new resources and protect the environment.

Hey Hay,
Just a short follow-up. What MVVM also gives you is that it will be easier to test. Testing
business logic in code-behind is a PITA. However separating the logic with MVVM pattern
will make it easier for you to test your business logic. Another benefit is that it will also
make it easier (hopefully ;-) ) to swap out your UI (Views) in the future if that is needed.
But, some UI specific code is better of being added in the code-behind. And you seldom
add tests for UI specific behavior.

If the code behind is the best thing ever ( I agree it is ) why Microsoft invented the new way to binding, trigger ...etc. from xaml markup. That is because there is somebody will need it. Also less code is less bugs and less code to maintain. plus if you use code behind you will miss xaml deploy only to deploy a WPF App which is require to have only xaml file to deploy the WPF app thru the browser. That is my salt as well J Thanks Hay

Hello Hay:
Wherever you go as a .NET developer, there are always those with extreme viewpoints. Indeed, you could write your WPF MVVM applications without any code-behind. However, if that is such a good thing why is it then that Microsoft still offers the option for code-behind? Apparently, someone is still using code-behind (in fact, all .NET developers that we know).
I remember, about 7-8 years ago code-behind was marketed as the greatest thing: it would separate concerns and remove the code from the HTML in your ASP (note ASP, not ASP.NET).
Anyhow, we think that totally removing code-behind is an extreme position. It is like telling someone not to eat salt. True, you can live without salt, but would that be any fun or easy to do? My suggestion is to take everything you read with a grain of salt (no pun intended) and do what works best for you.
We at DoFactory, use litlle salt, but we are not salt-less; in other words, we embrace MVVM and in doing so we like to keep our code-behind files light-weight.
Anyhow, I hope this clarifies our viewpoint.

MVVM is a architectural design pattern, that basically describes how to separate UI from logic. It does so by promoting that you put logic in your VM. It does not say anywhere, that I'm aware of, that you shouldn't use a code-behind file nor does it say that you should never put code in it.
I use MVVM but still have a code-behind file. For instance, it is an ideal place to put UI specific code, which could be somewhat difficult to do in the VM.
Some use the code-behind file to set the DataContext when doing data-binding (I use Xaml & Behaviors with Unity for this though).
You could probably pull of a code-behind free application. But the question is, is it worth the extra effort?
Just my 2 cents

I got up early this weekend hoping to see blackbirds at Ridgefield and wasn't disappointed, both redwings and yellowheads were active near the edge of South Quigley Lake. My yellowhead pictures aren't as good as previous years but it was still nice to see them singing and chasing each other around. I didn't catch this male redwing singing but I love the colors of the early morning light. Song and savannah sparrows were also out and about and singing their hearts out, those pictures are yet to come.

Visitations Part II
Some more quick thoughts on my web traffic since my last update:
- I was mistaken earlier when I said that I had been visited by 49 states with West Virginia the lone holdout. It turns out West Virginia hadn't visited, that part was true, but neither had Delaware or Rhode Island. West Virginia did visit this week, followed by Delaware, and then finally Rhode Island, so all 50 states have now stopped by. Drinks are on me!
- I am unpopular with the druids. Exactly zero visits from the towns around Stonehenge. Zero! This may hurt my chances at becoming Archdruid.
- I am also unpopular in Japan (Finland and China have since clocked in, so Japan is the lone holdout of countries I've visited). Perhaps the druids have taken over Japan. I need to look into this.
- Each country has a two letter identifier at the end of their Internet address, except for the US, which is only fair since Al Gore did invent the Internet. Much like two letter identifiers for the states of the US, however, some of them are not for the countries I expected. For example, did you know that Switzerland is ch, so China is not ch but cn, and Canada is not cn but eh?
- Canada has visited but at a much lower rate than I expected compared to the US. I had planned to run a targeted campaign by blogging about hockey sticks and Pocky sticks (attracting both Canadians and the druid-Japanese), but I no longer believe it will be enough to attract my friends to the north. What we need is an invasion. Fifty-Four Forty or Fight! Who's with me? Hello? Anyone? Hello?
Go Ahead and Get Comfortable, Em
Barking Up The Right Tree
While in Taos, my wife and I drove out to the Wild Rivers Recreation Area for a little hiking and sight seeing. My wife wanted to touch the Rio Grande so after waiting for some thunderstorms to pass through, we hiked the Little Arsenic Trail down into the Rio Grande Gorge. Following a long and seemingly endless series of switchbacks down into the canyon, we were tired but happy when we finally reached the riverbank. The trees by the water had a beautiful red color and I loved the patterns in their bark. The hike back up was even more punishing, but I was excited to find a tarantula sharing the trail with us, the first one I've seen in the wild.
Bed Time
The Black of Night
Another picture from New Year's Day, Emma's first full day of freedom to roam the house. This was also the time I started carrying a flashlight to bed with me.
When I used to go to bed, I'd leave the lights off to avoid waking my wife and head up the stairs in the dark. We've lived here enough years that I can do it easily by feel. Templeton would stay behind in my office to sleep while Scout would wait (oh so patiently) for me to come to bed so she could climb on top of me. When the new cats arrived, however, I found that I was not alone in my climb upstairs in the dark. Sometimes Emma would hang out on the stairs like here and sometimes she'd literally follow me underfoot. It was impossible to see a jet black cat in the pitch black stairwell and I ran into her more than once. So I started carrying a flashlight so I could see my little black shadow before I kicked her.
Now that she's so comfortable here, she often stays where she's sleeping like Templeton used to. I'll rub her head before I head upstairs to see if she wants to join me, and she gives me that "Would you get up if you were in my shoes?" look that my little gray cat used to give me, and then she goes back to sleep. She's in bed with us when we wake up in the morning, so apparently she just comes to bed in her own time.
The Stare
Sam on New Year's Day. He was still getting treatment on his ears at this point so some of the hairs in his ears are wet. The drops were cold since the medicine had to be refrigerated, so little Sam was understandably less than happy about his treatment. Despite the intense stare in the picture, though, he was immediately all purrs and happiness when you finished rubbing the drops in and started cuddling with him. Although he had a handful of things he had to be treated for from the time he was at the Humane Society through his first couple of weeks with us, thankfully he's been healthy ever since.
I've been monitoring web traffic at racphoto.com for a week or two and here are some quick thoughts:
- All 12 visits from Ireland have come from Dublin. I'm pretty sure this is Bono visiting my site, I'm a big fan of his and I assume the feelings are reciprocated. Tell the Edge and Adam and Larry I said hi!
- Out of the 50 states in the US, I've been visited by 49. The lone holdout? West Virginia. West Virginia! One of my favorite places to hike when I lived in Virginia. Come on folks, show me the love.
- Visitors came from six continents. Google doesn't show Antartica, so I'm not sure if they're visiting or if I'm persona non grata down there.
- Visitors came from 38 countries, only one of which I've visited (the United States). I know people from China have visited the blog (at the very least to try and spam it) so I'm not sure why they don't show up in the list. People from Japan have visited before but perhaps not the past week. But what's up with Finland? People of Oulu, hear my plea! It's dark and cold, what exactly are y'all up to? I visited you in November when it wasn't exactly tourist season that close to the Arctic Circle!
- Two iPhone visitors stopped by (and viewed a combined total of 3 pages, one more than I would have expected). I can't imagine what my site must look like on such a small screen, but I'm curious to find out. If I accidentally drop my current cell phone under the train tomorrow and need to get a new one, it's pure coincidence I assure you.
- I've only been visited by one of the three countries in George Bush's infamous axis of evil. I'm disappointed, as my efforts to spread peace, love, and understanding through pictures of my cats has stalled. The visit from Iran doesn't seem to have attracted the attention of Vice President Cheney as I haven't seen any entries for "undisclosed bunker" in my logs.
- The vast majority (over 85%) of the visitors come from the United States. Apparently the rest of the world isn't as anxious to learn about America's newts and squirrels as I initially thought.
- I've been curious to see how many of the places that I've lived (even if just for a summer) have visited. There are a few towns I've lived so small they'll never show up no matter how long I watch, but more places showed up than I expected.
- For that matter, the site is getting a lot more traffic than I expected.
- There are many more Mac users than I anticipated. I expected the blog to be Mac heavy since many of the people who know about it use Macs, but the regular web site isn't that much lower. But where are the BeOS and AmigaOS users?
- There haven't been any visits from Atlantis. I was hoping they might slip up and give away their secret location, but so far no luck. I'll keep watching.
- It's really hard to type with Scout draped on my arms, so I'll stop now.
Papa Smurf
When we moved into our house, there was a forest of weeds growing under the grapes that lined the backyard. While clearing out the weeds, I found a few good plants as well, either remnants of an old garden or volunteers from some other place. I preserved as many of the good plants as I could but some of those were later casualties when I decided to dig up the grapes.
One such casualty was a cluster of onions or garlic, the bulbs got broken up by the shovel while digging up the roots of the grape vines. One survived as it grew on the other side of the little metal guard that separated the yard from the grapes. This picture was taken in late June of last year, the flower is just about to break out of the casing and fully bloom.
A Nice Quiet Weekend
The past few weeks at work have brought added stress even though my workload was usually not bad, as we knew layoffs were coming. I survived the axe once more but can't say the same for some of my friends. A nice quiet weekend was just what I needed.
The weather here in Portland was projected to be beautiful so I got up before dawn Saturday morning and headed out to Ridgefield. No great pictures as the best subjects came after the first hour of sunlight when the light wasn't so good, but it was an enjoyable morning nonetheless. The yellow-headed blackbirds have indeed returned, they stayed in the interior of the marsh but their singing could be heard from the road. Hopefully I'll catch them near the road sometime over the next couple of months before they leave us.
The savannah sparrows were out singing in the meadows as well but I didn't get the good looks I got last year. Two coyotes were out and about but just out of reach, one had something dark and duck-sized in its mouth. Red-winged blackbirds were numerous and singing, and while watching them I noticed a young bittern just a few feet away at the edge of the marsh.
As I was about ready to leave I spotted a river otter nearby in a narrow channel. I waited to see if it would resurface but they swim fast and can hold their breath for a long time, so it was probably already off fishing somewhere far away.
The rest of the day was spent in yardwork, as was Sunday afternoon. I can barely move but it was lovely weather to be outside. I moved a blueberry bush that was struggling due to lack of sunlight, as well as some strawberries that were too close to the fence. They are both survivors from when I weeded the forest of weeds that was growing under the grapes when we moved in, and from when I dug up the grapes as well.
The strawberries in particular have done well since I sent the grapes on their longest journey, there were only a few straggly plants but with the grapes gone they get a lot more sunlight and now there's a whole patch of 'em. The berries are surprisingly delicious so I hope the transplants will survive.

GREENSBORO, N.C. — An 11-year-old Greensboro boy was bitten by a copperhead at his birthday party.
Cameron Robbins, who is a Cub Scout, said when he was bitten he immediately ran to the bathroom to check it out, our news partner WGHP reported.
"I was running from my friend who had a water balloon and, I guess, a snake jumped and got me," Cameron said.
Cameron said he should have called for an adult right away.
"It was already starting to swell and he was in severe pain," his mother Jennifer Hyatt said.
Cameron was taken to the hospital where he didn't need anti-venom.
But he has a message for other children who may find themselves in a similar situation.
"When you get bit by a snake, you go to an adult right away. You don't go do what I did," he said.

Minister Aisha Alhassan Went To The Villa And Still 'Rejected Buhari' For Nigerians In 2019
Estimated Reading Time: <1
The Minister of Women Affairs and Social Development, Aisha Alhassan, on Thursday, said that there was no going back on her decision to support former Vice-President Atiku Abubakar in the 2019 presidential election.
Alhassan, who stated this in an interview with State House correspondents at the Presidential Villa, said, "Let the will of God be done."
The minister, had on Wednesday, said she was ready to support the former vice-president in the 2019 election against Buhari.
Alhassan had, in an interview on the BBC Hausa Service, said that although she respected Buhari, Atiku remained her godfather.
She also confirmed her statement in a leaked video, where, during a private meeting with Atiku, endorsed the former vice-president.
Also in an interview with Reuters on Wednesday, she stated that Buhari had said that he would spend only one term in office.
She said that before the 2015 elections, Buhari promised that he would spend only one term in office to clean up the mess of the Peoples Democratic Party's government.
It was not clear if the minister was summoned to the Presidential Villa on Thursday.
Alhassan was seen leaving the Office of the Chief of Staff, Abba Kyari, who was said not to be on seat at the time she came.
When asked by State House correspondents to react to media reports credited to her that she would support Atiku in 2019, Alhassan, while walking to her car, referred newsmen to the interview she granted the BBC Hausa Service. She said her position had not changed.
Alhassan said, "No, I have no comment. What will I say now? I have said all in BBC Hausa. Get someone who speaks Hausa very well to translate it for you."
On her relationship with Buhari now, she asked, "How will I know? I have not seen the President but I don't think the President is a naive person."
On whether she was confident that she could retain her job, she replied, "God gives and God takes. That is all and I have said it all in Hausa. You know that there is an end to everything."

It's been a fantastic day for the Spurs fans here in the Tavern after they overcame bitter rivals Arsenal in a comprehensive 2-0 win at White Hart Lane!
Spurs outplayed Arsenal from start to finish and once again, the gulf in quality between the two sides was clear for all to see.
Strikes from Dele Alli and Harry Kane gave Spurs the win and our Arsenal-mad barman here in the pub is absolutely gutted with yet another spineless display from his team!
In honesty, it could have been worse for Arsenal had Alexis Sanchez been penalised for a handball decision but no penalty was awarded. It did little to dampen the atmosphere amongst the Spurs fans, who were absolutely loving life throughout the match!
And as you can imagine, the fallout online has been huge, especially considering this will be the first time in over 20 years Tottenham have finished above their bitter rivals.
So with that in mind, here's the best of the Spurs tweets following the huge victory…
Spurs will never be a greater or bigger club than Arsenal. Not possible. But right now they are miles ahead of us as a team on the pitch

Current research projects focus on different forms of societal challenges for tax law. This covers the use of environmental taxes to reduce environmental impact, and issues of rationality, legitimacy and functionality, where national and international norms are challenged by digitization and increased cross-border trade in various forms, especially in the field of value added tax. Questions on sustainable tax policies are particularly discussed within the frame of rationality and legitimacy or tax law.
I defended my doctoral thesis on cross-border consumption taxation of digital services in 2008. The thesis proposed further development of guidelines at both the OECD and EU level to resolve double taxation and double non-taxation issues in the value added tax.
Over the past ten years, I have mainly studied different VAT matters, such as issues on cross-border value added tax in the area of media and television production. Moreover, I have also published a national report on income taxation of non-established companies that provide services to Sweden and contributions in anthologies covering unilateral measures affecting both double taxation and non-taxation for both income tax and value added tax purposes, as well as authored a larger report on the functionality of the Swedish value added tax.
In 2015, I also began a larger research project on environmental taxes as a regulatory tool to minimise effects of chemical cocktails. The research is linked to the interdisciplinary research center, the FRAM Centre for Future Chemical Risk Assessment and Management Strategies at the University of Gothenburg.

Even though it's kind of dusty around here, I'm hoping to be adding more soon. Making your own curtains is easy-peasy, and making lined curtains is just one step up from the plain ol' kind (and lined curtains last longer, provide a better screen for hot sunlight, and probably have some other benefits I'm not thinking of right now). This post has been incredibly more popular than I ever imagined. I hope I've been able to answer all your questions – some other very helpful folks have also left answers in their comments – I've tried to incorporate most of these into the tutorial but feel free to ask any more that I've missed. One side-effect I didn't really expect is that making your own curtains is also very gratifying. " Kind of hard to wrap my mind around, come to think of it. I would recommend it on that point alone, although I also very much appreciate the economical points as well. Anyway, as I go from changing a diaper to washing the dishes, it's nice to have a reminder that some of my efforts stick around for a bit longer. In my world of work that is constantly undone, it's so nice to have something that I can look at that I can think to myself, "Yeah! When buying fabric for curtains, I recommend splurging and buying the fabric that you really want, not just whatever is cheapest. I know it's sometimes hard, (it is for me anyway) to buy the nice upholstery weight fabric when just yards away (heehee! – sorry, I'm a bit punchy tonight) is sitting a perfectly "alright" fabric for half the price or less. But this curtain is going to make a huge impact on your room. So go for the stuff you really like (if you're watching your pennies, you can wait for a sale or coupon).

Competition Winners
The results of our first short story competition, Misrepresentation, are:
Situs Inversus by Ilana Lindsey
What the judge said: Nice off-kilter feel to this from the start … It has a really surreal and quite dreamy atmosphere while at the same time being quite sinister. A great, dark tale and a fantastic take on the theme.
Runner up
Making Hay by Dr Elizabeth Allen
What the judge said: Great intrigue set up right from the offset about who the narrator is and what she's up to, why she's deflecting attention from her own authenticity by questioning the writers she's watching at the literary festival. Great poke at the literary pretensions, and commercial bias, of the publishing industry too and an empowering ending that left me wanting to know more.

Restart terms unclear among owners of retail stores
Owners of retail stores want a coordinated effort between the central and state government on resumption of business if the lockdown is not extended beyond May 3, 2020.
The eastern India members of the Retailers Association of India on Wednesday sought clarity from the government on the operating procedures if businesses are allowed to resume work. "There should be clear guidelines on resumption of operations," said Tejash Shah, chief financial officer of Baazar Kolkata, in a webinar held by the association.
He added that directions should not come just before lifting the lockdown. A draft guideline should be circulated by the government in advance so that there is adequate time to form a strategy and ensure safety and compliance, he said.
Liquidity being a major concern of many daily cash dependent retailers, the lockdown has presented two major challenges — managing overhead costs such as salary and rents and payment of interest on term loans and overdraft.
The members of the association are in favour of a subsidised rate of interest and not just a plain moratorium. "Managing interest cost is a big challenge at present," said Siddharth Pansari, director of Primarc Projects.
According to Shah, not all retailers are sitting on surplus cash all the time but statutory expenses have to be incurred. For that retailers may have to either depend on credit lines that raise the interest burden or promoters may have to step in and bring in equity capital at some point.

We're searching for an accomplished actuarial and financial reporting professional to join Lemonade's Finance team. Our ideal candidate is a business thinker and problem solver, an experienced numbers guru and a multitasker.
This position will require performing a broad range of tasks, including all the day-to-day SII actuarial and financial responsibilities of an insurance company in a hyper-growth startup environment. The successful candidate will join the management team of Lemonade Insurance N.V., our European hub and a licensed insurance carrier supervised by DNB, and help us build our European business as we grow and expand to additional countries.
In this role, you'll work closely with Group Finance, Actuary and European Operations to maintain our statutory compliance calendar, manage SII requirements, and ensure timely filing to regulatory authorities. You'll take ownership of a wide range of projects and responsibilities, assume a leading role in strengthening the company's compliance with regulations and the highest professional standards, and be a part of relevant Supervisory and Management Board committees.
Lemonade is a group of licensed insurance carriers offering property and liability insurance powered by artificial intelligence and behavioral economics, and driven by social good. Instead of brokers and bureaucracy, we use bots and machine learning to create an insurance experience that is instant (90 seconds to get insured!), affordable (policies start at €2/month), and paperless.
Founded by Shai Wininger and Daniel Schreiber and backed by SoftBank, GV, Sequoia, Aleph, General Catalyst and others, we're transforming insurance from a necessary evil into a social good by injecting technology and transparency into an industry that often lacks both.
We believe in doing things differently, pushing boundaries, and questioning everything. And as a Certified B-Corp, we incorporate our values of doing good into everything we do – from our business model to our office culture, committing to diversity, equity, and inclusion.
Lemonade is live throughout the United States and Germany, and rolling out across Europe (lemonade.com/lemonade-goes-global)

A 39-year-old woman with a history of regional enteritis presented with an itchy rash on a tattoo on her left leg that she had received two weeks earlier (Figure 1A). We diagnosed allergic contact dermatitis and prescribed clobetasol propionate cream (0.05%). About three weeks later, she returned because of a painful ulcer with undermined greyish borders that was restricted to the red-dye portion of her tattoo (Figure 1B). Results of patch testing with standard and textile series and the dyes used in her tattoo showed a nonrelevant allergy to nickel. Fungal and bacterial culture results were negative, and we ruled out systemic sarcoidosis, which may rarely present with cutaneous ulceration.
Our presumed diagnosis was pyoderma gangrenosum triggered by a pathergic reaction to allergic contact dermatitis. Although we considered severe ulcerating hypersensitivity to tattoo dye (e.g., naphthol red, a known sensitizer) as a possible diagnosis, this reaction often involves the entire tattoo surface;1 some of the red-dye portion of our patient's tattoo was not involved by the centrifugally expanding ulcer, and testing did not show a clear link. Patch testing with tattoo dyes has low sensitivity, and we opted against intradermal testing to avoid triggering another reaction.2 The ulcer resolved over four weeks (Figure 1C) with a tapering dose of oral prednisone (1 mg/kg) and topical wound care.
Pyoderma gangrenosum is a painful, ulcerative neutrophilic dermatosis seen in 1%–5% of patients with inflammatory bowel disease.3 The skin reaction is likely an autoimmune process, characterized by a sterile neutrophilic infiltrate.3,4 Although some cases are idiopathic, most are associated with systemic diseases such as inflammatory bowel disease, arthritis and hematologic cancers.4,5 Pyoderma gangrenosum can precede an exacerbation of inflammatory bowel disease.3 It is most commonly triggered by a pathergic response to trauma.4,5 (Pathergy can rarely develop after an allergic reaction.6) The diagnosis is largely clinical, based on the patient's history and the morphology of the ulcer.4 Characteristic features include preferential location on the legs, disproportionate pain, rapid ulcer extension and presence of a dusky blue or gunmetal-coloured undermined border.4 Pyoderma gangrenosum often responds well to brief immunosuppressive therapy (e.g., prednisone or cyclosporine) or, in less severe cases, to topical or intralesional corticosteroid therapy.4 People with a history of pyoderma gangrenosum or inflammatory bowel disease should be made aware of this risk before consenting to cosmetic procedures such as tattoos.

It takes certain know-how and enough info to get to your wedding destination in a stylish manner. Here are some important wedding transportation tips that will help you enjoy a flawless wedding and capitalize on top transportation options.
- Book at Least Four Months BeforeThe first thing you should do after you have settled your wedding date, location and wedding size, is to hire your transportation company. If you are married in June, which is the graduation season, formal vehicles will definitely be in quite high demand, so you might need to call in and book your transportation even earlier. The same goes true for vintage cars, which compared to limos are available in shorter supply.
- Know the OwnerEven though it might sound unimportant, knowing the owner of the company you want to rent from comes with great benefits. First off, he might give you a clean 10% off your order. He might also find you the vehicle of your dreams if he does not own it. A car rental company owner talks with other owners in the industry to give you what you want. If you do not know the owner personally, you can send him a private message or try to know him through certain people.
- Make the Book in PersonTo enjoy a flawless wedding transportation experience, make sure you make the final reservation in person. While you may ask quotes over the phone or chat with the company's employees on live chat, booking in person allows you to see firsthand the vehicle you are going to travel with.
- Go BigYour wedding day is the most important day of your life, so you should be luxurious. Opulence is the right word. Special features, such as your favorite champagne, music or certain clothing arrangements for the driver, might cost you a fortune, but they will definitely contribute to the overall experience of the day.
- Add VarietyTo enjoy a personalized experience driving to and from your wedding, add variety to your means of transportation. You can choose to go to your wedding location in that beautiful Limo and come home in a green Beetle. Let's not forget the large SUV with tinted windows and armor plates. That's a great way to show off.
- Spread the FunFor a complete transportation experience, share your moments with your wedding guests. A luxurious bus has become a popular way to travel to your wedding. You can also rent a limo for the whole day and let your guests take a ride of maximum 5 minutes each to enjoy the experience of traveling in style.

HLSL Development Cookbook
This article is in the Book Review chapter. Reviews are intended to provide you with information on books – both cpokbook and free – that others consider useful and of value to developers. Read a good programming book? While finally coobkook back round to my game development roots, another interesting book crossed my desk which delves into the mysterious and sometimes scary world of shaders.
Even I only have an appreciation for what's going on under the covers to create the mind blowing effects that only comes from mucking around in the graphics streams on the graphics card.
XNA did a lot of this for us with 5 built in shaders that gave us a leg up and provided most of the basic effects used in common games. To really make your game shine and look impressive, you need to have a good understanding of shaders, even if you only intend on using the many resources out there to enhance your game, it helps to understand how and why these things work.
The HLSL Development Cookbook is targeted for intermediate or experienced developers in the land of shaders so some up front knowledge is needed to get a real appreciation of the tips and tricks contained within, not to worry though if you are a noob or beginner then check out Riemers HLSL tutorial to get yourself up to speed on the basics — http: This book, like many cookbooks is a heavy set reference for shading techniques and explanations of some generic lighting and post processing effects, what makes it good is that it leads you down a very direct path to understand exactly how these effects work and what makes them tick, leading you to try and test your own techniques and improve on them or create new shaders.
An appreciation I got from reading this book is an understanding of how some effects are made and what inputs are needed to simplify their application. The book is laid out like a traditional HLSL cookbook breaking down effects and showing how each component works and its end effect on the resultant output. Lighting is one of the most basic and commonly used shader techniques, after all without light there would only be darkness which is only good for audio gamesthis chapter goes into some depth on the main basic lighting systems used in games today, such as:.
Through this chapter, you will learn what you need to know to light up your scene and the models within it. In this chapter, the author does a good job of explaining all the parts needed to achieve deferred rendering and how best to implement it with also a few tips and tricks to go beyond, covering things such as:. Some really nice examples of these effects courtesy of NemoKrad RandomChaos blog. So far, the book has covered how to add light, as expected we also need to be able to work by subtracting light to really show off how elements in the game are effected by the environment they are playing in just ask Peter Pan what he thinks of his own shadow!
HLSL Development Cookbook–A Review
Shadow mapping also lets you to give the effect that the player is in an actual real world, without it games generally look flat even 2D ones.
Through this chapter, you are shown several techniques to generate shadows. As with everything else, there is no one silver bullet to coookbook a problem like shadows so it is really good the cookbok offers some of the main solutions. Some really nice examples of these effects courtesy of NemoKrad RandomChaos blog can be found here.
Ask any photographer worth his salt about post processing and they will likely chew your ear off for hours, those final touches you add to a scene that make it live. Some devs do some of this work in advance by baking the textures to be used in the game but even then some additional effects are needed to blow them up. Screen space effects are another class of post processing which focus on elements that effect the entire scene usually from a single element, like the sun.
examples / HLSL Development Cookbook · GitLab
Some see them as just another Post process, others see them as a particular form of advanced shading, in either case it is a very useful technique to have under your belt especially if your game is featured in space or the great outdoors.
This is generally referred to as Environmental effects, the most basic of which would be a rain effect since rain distorts light when viewed through it and leaves a smear as it goes.
These are fairly advanced techniques for altering the environment based on another texture or set of rules.
Some really nice examples of a fire environmental effect courtesy of NemoKrad RandomChaos blog can be seen here. Even with my rudimentary shader knowledge, I was able to understand the workings of each shader detailed in this book even without Googling.
