Save Pokemon Emerald On Mac

Ottawa - Parc Gatineau

Sun .. the semester is over! At least the lectures. Now it's time to get on the exams. However, I have the luck that I only write two "finals" and must therefore be limited to the stress of learning the next two days. At the weekend I had to do that is better: Ottawa and Gatineau Park:
Friday, 04/12:
Yeha, Road Trip again! Camille Arnaud, Andrew, Christopher and I, two French, two German and an Austrian made his way to Ottawa to explore the capital! Unfortunately, pretty much traffic and we arrived at 10 clock in Ottawa and have plunged directly into the afterlife! Many thanks to all the French in Ottawa, which we heartily hosted!
Saturday, 05/12:
went after a good breakfast of bacon and eggs it on seeing the sights. Of course we have the Parliament and all sorts of government buildings viewed: We did not stay long in Ottawa, as we continue to Parc Gatineau wanted. But I will take all cases to the "Ice scatting" on the channel again in January to Ottawa! Gatineau Park is located about 50km north of Ottawa and we had rented for 2 nights on a small "cabin", a hut in the middle of nowhere. The last few kilometers we had to walk back and put our cabin had no electricity and no running water, but but a really good wood stove: Sunday, 06/12:
Today was hiking, so walking the day. The weather was once again wonderful. So anyone here in Canada can stand me really well, because every time I walk go or anything else outdoor legitimate company, I have good weather:
Unfortunately, the beach was closed and we could not go swimming, but it was also no sharp as it was nice and cold and small lakes have been frozen:

the evening was then boiled vigorously, and we let it go really well in our cabin. At night it started then to snow and the next morning we woke up in a different world.
Monday, 07/12:
saw it this morning but something different:
Juhhuuu! The first snow of Canada. Now I am still on the white beauty ... we'll see how it looks in a couple of weeks. Probably I can see no more snow!
went there at noon and then again gestaltetet to Hamilton and the way back, but thanks to the snow a little longer and more complicated, but the weekend was a real success and after a few days in nature, it gets to be much better! The next is a reward for my work is already on Sunday, it means it namely: New York, I'm coming!

Bam Margera Skate Shoes

Killarney Provincial Park

yeah, I'm still alive! Recently, much too much happened and I had almost daily reports to tell everything, but here is a brief summary of the last weeks:

end of October:
The university has been quite a bit preoccupied with the whole tests and notes that I must always count on. Not very exciting, but I can say but that I all the tests, presentations, etc. have survived until now very good.

Halloween (31.10-1.11) :
Halloween is really big in North America. And when I say big, I mean really big! Three nights, three different parties and always the same costume (notice my red socks): Climbing:
Yeah I climb pretty much here. The McMaster University even has a climbing club and we make almost weekly trips to any rock climbing areas. I was already at three different places and it was always very nice: The first trip took us to Niagara Glen bouldering for climbing without a rope that is in jump height. Super beautiful area with fantastic Boulder rocks! The second trip we went to the "Rattlesnake Point," went to the top rope climb, throw and so climb down rope so:
Yes, we had a really big force, but also a very nice group. The weather has also played perfectly and it was so warm that we were actually made to eat ice cream and went in November in Canada? The third trip took me to Mount Nemo "to" lead climbing "climbing, lead climbing and so I once had to climb right back in the ship ...

Wednesday, 11.11 to Saturday 14.11 - Killarney Provincial Park
Ok, actually I would have Uni, but I am an Exchange student, so sometimes fast three days skip college and take advantage from the north to perhaps the last opportunity in this to year, a little hiking. Nic, a Canadian know I've learned about climbing, and I are in the Killarney Park went to the "backpacking" and I can tell you it was just indescribable
The weather could once again not have been better: 4 sunny days only, but rather cold, especially at night, but for all the time dry. The first night we had frost in the morning and our tent was covered in frost but thanks to my new sleeping bag from the states but I was nice and warm in the tent ... In the 4 days we have seen all sorts of nice places and were able to enjoy the nature but to the full. Unfortunately we have no bears, moose or seen similar things, but they were not far away, because we have enough tracks found in the mud! At lunch we also had plenty of it, but this was our backpacks but quite difficult at the beginning and I think there were well over 20kg, but for such a beautiful landscape that one is already ruined sometimes the back. Many people we have not hit, but for a 77 year old German who emigrated to Canada 40 years ago and still happily wanders through the countryside and not just on easy trails ... the roads are sometimes but very demanding and you have to use it again and again his hands to come on! I just hope I'm 77 years ever so fit!
I will not continue to rave about the park, because words can not describe it, almost. But pretty good in pictures: (follow the link ...)

Detritivores, Scavengers, And De

lobectomy of the right upper lobe second LVRS (lung volume reduction)

did after the last operation I report regularly on the progress. But then I moved it to enjoy every minute before, in what I was doing "good."
In the meantime, I twice traveled to Thailand. After my last return in May 2009 but I felt worse. In May 2009, a new lung function test with 6-minute walk test and blood gas analysis. It was agreed that further investigations for a re-operation to make. Thus, in June 2009 completed all investigations, which were needed for another operation. The most important were the heart and lung scan and ultrasound of the heart. Since taking these tests as early as 8 hours, I decided to leave for a night on the short-term clinic of the University Hospital Basel down. - It was later a conversation with the chief physician of the Toraxchirurgie which the operation date was put off a bit and steady on the end of summer.
On 6 September 2009 at 10:00 clock, I entered the University Hospital Basel. It was followed by the entire entry formalities and preparations. On 7 September, at 10 clock in the morning I was then picked up for surgery preparation. As it should be my second operation of this kind I was not particularly nervous. There were some I created infusions ... and since my memory ends there, because one is now mostly been warned not remember that now receives a sleeping pill. - I find good, because not long after you think what probably comes next.
Dull, agonizing and severe pain - to me breathing difficult -. Woke me up I heard different voices around me, which persuaded me and asked after my health and questions about my pain is presented. I was told that they had given me something for the pain. For me it took a long time until the pain eased, although only 10 - were 15 minutes after a recovery period for the first time I opened my eyes and perceived that I was still alive and was in intensive care.. - It was an unpleasant Situation, because I could hardly move. When I asked the nurse sent to me the pillow, because I could not sit up independently, they said - and this is incomprehensible to me still - I should do the
it himself and referred to the temple, which we previously granted under hung up so I could not use it. These things I find daunting. I had this mistress in itself but to seek help if she was not able to alone. They did so -. About 11.00 clock, I was taken to the station in my room.
The postoperative course was normal with some minor complications run. The success of the operation had taken place, unfortunately not as hoped. On the contrary. Technically it was my breath even worse than before surgery. I had to stay 16 days in hospital (7 were planned - 10 days) on the day of my discharge from hospital, I felt almost back as before the hospital admission.. The trip home was difficult. For a month I did not leave my apartment. Not even to the mailbox. I let my food delivered to your home. Then I had the first lung function test, which showed that the success was moderate. had planned my winter trip to Thailand I defer for now. Whether it is something?
It has been agreed, I again in early December 2009 for lung function, come in hope and with the expectation that my condition improved. In fact, I have felt in the last two weeks have shown some improvement. During this time I'm alone twice gone shopping outside the home. - The chief physicians assume that the creeping success is attributable to the open back surgery.
The first two pictures show the scar after the operation, the last picture two months later. The scar measures about 18 cm.

How To Unlock A Mailbox

Chicago

Thanksgiving! ! That is a long weekend and that must be used properly of course. Therefore I moved it to Chicago last weekend ...
weekend 9th-11.10:
On Friday morning it was time to 5 clock going in the morning because we had about 700km to go. Fortunately we had never really jam and we arrived after about an hour over the borders into the United States. The weather was poor, but today was only announced on shopping anyway. On the way a great many "Outlet Store", which is more or less a factory outlet. These outlet stores are smaller villages with tons of small shops of all kinds of brands. And the things are really cheap. T-shirts for 3 or 5 €, jeans and shoes for 10-20 € for 20 €. This must of course take advantage of it and I once spent 200 Euro quickly, but I've also bought a lot of real things:

the evening we arrived quite late but then in Chicago and had dinner only in a small bar around the corner.
went on Saturday it will finally go into the Big City! In the tourist info we got the same one super city guide to first get a rough idea of the city. Of course, we have also seen the famous bean from Chicago: The skyline is just wonderful: the evening, then went to the Hancock Tower to the city from above and sometimes at night to see! Real impressive. Then there was still the famous "Deep Dish" pizza, so a "real american" pizza which is about 5cm thick: Then we were all eaten so full that we do not go out once more wanted, but only an extensive wanted make dinner walk. Well, but still ended in a bar .. On Sunday it was
the Adler Planetarium, where you can quickly spend even one day. There are two major planetariums and even a 3D cinema, so it is definitely worth a visit. For me as an astronomy student ever! In the evening we went to Chinatown to eat and then in a nice jazz bar! Unfortunately, on Monday
was the weekend already over and we drove back to Hamilton. We did, however, still hold at the Science Museum and watched the U-boat "U 505" to. Very impressive and a very nice museum, unfortunately, was also in the U.S. public holiday on Monday and therefore it was pretty crowded. On the return trip we made another stop at an outlet store and bought another one a couple of things. On Tuesday morning by 1 clock we were all happy again, but also tired back in Hamilton. All in all, I must say that was a very successful road trip!

Nuit Blanche

Yes, I'm still alive! Unfortunately, I find at the moment do not have time to tell you but too much of Canada, although it really would be soooo much to tell. Well now, a brief summary of the last weeks and especially the weekend and of course there is beautiful again many pictures:

Week 6 and 7 (21.9-5.10):
So during the week I'm really only concerned with two things: rock climbing, studying. I'm not sure which of the two at the moment everything takes time ... 26-27.9
The weekend was a real birthday weekend and, accordingly, moist happy. So the Canadians know how to celebrate a birthday: A house clean rooms empty, a couple of kegs of beer, loud music and there you go ...
The last weekend (3-4.10), I was visiting in Toronto and got the Nora. This weekend was pretty much across Ontario in Toronto, there was "Nuit Blanche" is announced. Throughout the city were any comic and partial really pointless, but still pretty crazy funny exhibitions of artists. The whole evening starts and goes until sunrise. Sometimes you just have to join! As my French roommate who was from Hamilton Arnaud also there, and there is his birthday night was, of course, was celebrated extensively and run around. Sorry, but relatively many French people were there and were really totally scheduled times and waiting ever since for almost an hour until all are! But otherwise they are quite funny, although they can not speak English ... Unfortunately the weather was not very good and hence the visit to Toronto and the CN Tower fell into the water, but I need only 50 minutes by bus so I can make up for another weekend out! Instead, we were shopping and plenty to do in Toronto even really good, provided the necessary cash, of course!
So here are a few more pictures of the crazy night:

next weekend is Thanksgiving and it is then for the first time in the States after Chicago ...

I Forgot My Brinks Locker Combination

School and Canoeing

here in Canada is still very nice weather, so enjoy nothing like out of the house and every ray of sunshine before winter comes! That's what I've tried this week But I had also a lot to do at the Uni ...

14.9-20.9 Week 5:

is Slowly it really seriously at the university. The first homework and presentations to be and I have to work a bit. Well celebrate travel only and would be so boring even in the long run. Unfortunately I still have quite a lot of money to spend on books. So this is in Germany but better controlled so that you can pretty much borrow any book. Here there is no such thing! Afternoon, I have tested the climbing wall at the University thoroughly and it is really fun to climb there. The wall is not just big, but it has very nice people there! On Tuesday evening there was the outdoor club also have a nice barbecue, which I of course could not be missed!
On Saturday I was driving again and that canoe again with the outdoor club. It's just so much fun to paddle! We are on the level of River of Paris (yes that exists in Ontario) went to advanced fire and we had great weather and a lot of fun! Unfortunately, my battery gave up after three photo images of the spirit, so there is unfortunately not so many pictures:
In the evening there was still "Beer Olympics" and we had to represent a strong German team! Among other things, "Beer Pong" or "Flip Cap" and the Canadians were played by Germans Card games like bubbles enthusiastically. So in all a very fun evening in Downtown in "Absinthe" was a long end ...

How I Write Certificate?

Frosh Week and Niagara Falls

Yes, you've noticed it states: I do not write as regularly. Unfortunately, the university has now begun, and last week was pretty exhausting. Not because of the university, but even more because of all parties, suitors and trips. So today there is only a brief summary of the week, but really nice pictures!

Tuesday, 08/09 - Friday 18.9

Still Frosh Week. That is still crazy parties and other events. On Tuesday was also Club Day, where all sorts of imagined Clubs and I have diligently applied course for some, especially the Outdoor Club!
Wednesday was also pajama party, so all "Erstis" had to arrange with their craziest pajamas on the street and a parade and the older ones have drum organized around a nice party: there evening, usually somewhere a "Predrink" bervor it went into some bars and clubs ... :)

went on Thursday and then release the university and the start was very comfortable and I also really good courses, but this next week!

Something was late on the Saturday of Orientation Day for International Students. However, would not really tell much that is new. After an orientation in Germany and Toronto, but I already knew most of it. But it was nice to meet other international people and there was free food all day, but a Schwabe heard yet so much to talk ...

Sunday, 13.09 - Niagara Falls:

The largest waterfalls in the world. Finally it was time! With the Outdoor Club we went with three full school buses to Niagara Falls and I can say is they are really impressive! We are pleased with the boat, the famous "Maid of the Mist" moved up very close and have become really nice wet but since you feel once the forces of Niagara Falls.
later we are still left behind the falls, through a tunnel, but this is not as exciting as you except a raging white wall does not so much! Then it went a little crazy in a pretty street in it in the style of Las Vegas are all possible! But has nothing to do with Niagara Falls, but that does not bother the little Canadian ...

Hairstylist Birthday Cakes Designs

Frosh Week and Labor Day

Yes I admit, I still do not study! There are just too many interesting things, simply because there is no time. I It did not even managed to resolve my case, complete! Well this week is first Frosh Week and also on Monday Labor Day!

5-6.9 weekend: This weekend I've

at least once started to give my room. Once it looks reasonably nice, I will also show a couple of pictures, but not yet! Moreover, now all retired in a house and of course had to be celebrated on Sunday night right! In the house now, just 7 students: 2 German, one French, one Algerian, one Chinese, one Canadian and a Canadian woman of Turkish origin ... a really nice mix! Especially when we all start to cook;)
was very funny and the "residence move in", ie the arrival of freshmen in the dorms. Before the dorms were really cool parties all of the residents and from time to time are about 18-year freshmen moved forward with their parents and were greeted wildly screaming and then the car was emptied of all those present within 5 minutes and then continued the party ... I shall place before me a river!

Monday, 09/07 Labor Day:

This morning went there first in a parade in the city in almost all trade unions and other associations that Hamilton has to offer are run there: It was not exactly spectacular, but quite amusing and there were even a couple of gifts :)
afternoon we will get tickets at short notice for the football game against the McMaster Marauders Waterloo. I've never been to a football game so it was a really great experience, even though I still do not understand the rules to 100%:
the evening was ushered in the Frosh week. Actually this week is meant as orientation for all freshmen, but also the older party with strong! You have to buy only a red bracelet and is all week in all kinds of clubs and bars around otherwise! Since it simmer! :)

Avoidant Personality Disorder Famous Character

Algonquin Provincial Park

Algonquin Provincial Park is the largest Parc throughout Ontario and consists only of wood and water. It also has about 3,000 moose, bears and even wolves moderately. That's where we wanted to go. A week long walk away from civilization and a canoe and camping on tour of Camp Side Camp Side to paddle the only one fireplace and a wooden beam in the forest there, just pure Wildlife.

Friday, 8.28 - 4.9:
On Friday morning we went very early, as today, the canoes and our camping permit must pick up the Ranger. Unfortunately we only had a car for 7 people, so had to take the bus 3. The four guys took the car and organized everything and did the 3 girls there with a bottle of wine at the bus stop to go well ... ok, wait 3 hours is long! But how do you transport three canoes with only a small car. In Canada, everything is possible: Unfortunately, everything took longer than planned on Friday because the way we somewhat underestimated had. We had to drive 25km namely on a crappy dirt road. With canoes on the roof takes the good times over an hour. The weather was not too outstanding and we have therefore decided not drive off on Friday evening and camp at the parking lot. Sorry, we do not have the tent set up right, and it rained all night, so the first night was very wet and cold!
went on Saturday, unfortunately, is unaffected. Only rain and about 5 ° C. .. But the impressive landscape has compensated us in any case. Our mood was suppressed only with difficulty:

The first moose we could also spot:
Sorry the weather on Sunday was only partially better, so it was still on the teeth and bite. In the evening we were rewarded for it but then the sun came out finally in a beautiful sunset: it should be our constant companion from now on, the next 5 days we had only sunshine!
So everything was dried and the next day it went up to Big Trout Lake and back from there!
The week was all an incredible experience and I can say that all happiness and satisfaction are back come from nature. Man missing from it and also the conveniences of everyday life, especially a soft mattress, but to live one week with mother nature and a wonderful group but is a nice experience.
Well, our first stop when we came out of the park was, of course, Wendy's and every first plastered a fat burger. Civilization has us again ...

more pictures will follow ...

cruise around here

Thursday, 08/27:
Before I went off to Algonquin Park rented a car and still drove it to London yet to pick up my bike. Nico was happy about it, of course, because he had not already then take the bus to Hamilton! In the evening we were still great shopping for the week. 7 people and 7 days ... comes together a pretty large amount. Then we went rushing down the highway (with incredible 100km / h, more is generally not allowed - booooring) and us the wonderful industrial city of Hamilton have seen at night!

Report Disability Fraud In Il

Toronto Orientation

Yes if, in a exchange programs such as the OBW ( Ontarion - Baden Württemberg) is there is of course always an official part. For me it was a Orientation the 3 days lan in Toronto was:
Monday, 08/24 - Wednesday, 08/26:
On Monday we drove off with general matters. So what we actually want from the university, which offers us the university and what we have to do ... not exactly spectacular, but still useful. That was really nice to again be among the Germans and all other OBW to meet people. Some I knew from the preparation weekend in Germany. My "personal goal" for the Orientation was a par to find volunteers to go with me on the Alpgonquin Parc to paddle. This was not really hard and we have the evening the same time, a par things organized . Namely, we need a car with camping equipment, canoes and a camping permit from the Ranger . Well not quite that simple ... The
Orientation was not only drivel, because on Tuesday we had a really nice "school trip". At first it went to a wonderful gallery and then in the north to Gorgian Bay for a boat ride! At the end there was again a really delicious dinner buffet :) On Wednesday it was then already been back to Hamilton, along with the other Germans and the French with it. After the International Office had then besieged for a few hours and all our stuff had settled, I could finally move into my beautiful home. With me live again a German and a Frenchman. In addition, two Canadians are still living, a Algerian and one room is available. Since the house is still not quite finished, we also had at breakfast improvise something
But for us it goes on Friday eh again on for a week in the Algonquin Parc and then the house would need far completed be ...
