根据一项最新调查,多伦多每44个人就有一个百万富翁。 That means one in every 44 people in Toronto are millionaires, and the figure doesn't include the value of someone's primary residence. http://www.cbc.ca/news/business/toronto-ranked-15th-on-global-list-of-millionaires-1.2723789
前两天收到一位朋友的来信,里面附了一段她病重朋友给她的信的内容,以前我在日志里也登过这位病重朋友的来信。与上次一样,读了这段信,心里很感慨,也深为那位病重朋友难过。我把她写的与我写的都放在这里,作为对生命的纪录。 May have been one of the worst days: Talk about shattering your heart :-( I honestly didn't expect to hear my tumors have grown. Thing that bother me is that I've been sicker than usual and the pain got worse. It was a different pain not under the rib so I was hoping that meant those died. The few days up til yesterday I was a mess. It's like I already knew it wasn't gonna be good. I've only seen Dr Guerin so far. She said Torre text her that it looks like the tumors grew so she told me and I lost it. She thought he called me which he did but was calling call once he got into system. He didn't and has an email questioning why I'm still waiting. What I get from all this was it was a mistake to stop chemo. It was working and 8 weeks of nothing would have to be why it started again. It makes sense ya think? I can second guess everything all day but since we spent the night lying in the dark crying about it all I think I Need to snap out of it and plan my next step. Guerin said my options would be to go back on chemo without the xeloda. Once a week every other week. I can seek out another place she said it would mean starting over and all new tests and such also holding off on more treatment sooner than last which I'm already hesitant about. Or I can do nothing. She feels I should try and focus on the quality of life. Doing nothing isn't for me I won't sit here while it eats away at me. If it is fast growing then who knows how long I have left. Needless to say is I'm destroyed over this. Ryan is destroyed along with our families. The reality of what's to come breaks my heart. I'm so sorry I'm putting everyone thru this. I'm sorry I won't be able have a child and the family I always wanted. I need to accept these things in order to move on and handle what's to come and those other plans I need to make. Thank you all for being there for me! I appreciate your concern. As of now I lean back to chemo but still plan on taking few days to call and make arrangements. Guess I'm hoping this other doc has other ideas for me. I love you guys. XO I wrote: It is very sad.The saddest part is she can't do nothing about it but watching her life fade way quickly in front of her. Suzanne Collins once said "Because Ican count on my fingers the number of sunsets I have left, and I don't want to miss any of them." Generally speaking, we are all counting our fingers and none of us know how many sunsets we have left. What we can do is to cherish every single day of our lives and be grateful for what we have. Hope your friend....sorry, I don't know what she could hope for.... I really don't know what to say but feel sorry and sad for her........ **** Suzanne Collins , the writer ofHunger Games http://biablo.blolol.com/random/JC/Johnny%20Cash%20American%20IV%20-%20The%20Man%20Comes%20Around/Johnny%20Cash%20-%2002%20-%20Hurt.mp3 Hurt by Johnny Cash I hurt myself today To see if I still feel I focus on the pain The only thing that's real The needle tears a hole The old familiar sting Try to kill it all away But I remember everything What have I become My sweetest friend Everyone I know Goes away In the end And you could have it all My empire of dirt I will let you down I will make you hurt I wear this crown of thorns Upon my liar's chair Full of broken thoughts I cannot repair Beneath the stains of time The feelings disappear You are someone else I am still right here What have I become My sweetest friend Everyone I know Goes away In the end And you could have it all My empire of dirt I will let you down I will make you hurt If I could start again A million miles away I would keep myself I would find a way
上次北宸说她家附近有坏人,秀逗的警察要他们看见异常情况赶紧的要报告。 她说给吓坏了,考虑买枪。 我对枪还熟一点,但是对加州的法律不熟。我跑到枪版上面发了一个帖子: “ 湾区硅谷的兄弟们请进: 我有一在硅谷的朋友,想买霰弹枪自卫。 买枪的话,请问你们有没有啥地方好推荐? 或者好的FFL DEALER可以转枪? 先谢过。 又,关于加州共和国的法律,这里没有城堡法吧? 那在家里(包括后院)自卫,打死打伤了入侵者,有没有刑事、民事责任?” 枪版的朋友们总是很热心的,有人答: “如果简单的话,去big5买Mossberg 500的combo。网上买,这里好几个dealer可以 transfer,$35~$70 + $25 Dros (这是说找连邦政府认可的有执照的FFLDEALER转枪的话收取35到70美元的手续费,那个25刀的DROS俺们德州木有,不知道是不是加州政府的土政策) 没有城堡法则,一般原则是只有在你生命受到致命威胁的时候可以,比方别人拿刀拿枪 对着你的时候。在院子里背后打枪也会有问题 刑事责任没了民事也会被纠缠” 关于城堡法, "好像有但是有些限制 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Castle_doctrine California California Penal Code § 198.5 sets forth that unlawful, forcible entry into one's residence by someone not a member of the household creates the presumption that the resident held a reasonable fear of imminent peril of death or great bodily injury should he or she use deadly force against the intruder. This would make the homicide justifiable under CPC § 197 . CALCRIM 506 gives the instruction, " A defendant is not required to retreat. He or she is entitled to stand his ground and defend himself and, if reasonably necessary, to pursue an assailant until the danger ... has passed . This is so even if safety could have been achieved by retreating." However , it also states that " specifically held that burglaries which 'do not reasonably create a fear of great bodily harm' are not sufficient 'cause for exaction of human life.'” The court held that because a "trap-gun" was used, the doctrine did not apply. " 12月9日SanFranciscoChronicle上面报道了一例东湾屋主自卫射杀入侵者的案例: http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2011/12/08/BADT1MA4I5.DTLtsp=1 你们不妨追踪看看这个案例,看看屋主按加州的法律有没有民事责任。 Mossberg 500型五连发霰弹枪是我家庭防卫枪械的首选,简单可靠又便宜,价格300美元上下。 我自己用,给爱菊轩MM家推荐的也是它。
