The document discusses initiatives to advance physical activity knowledge and participation among Canadians living with spinal cord injuries. It outlines a mission to develop strategies that enable people with SCIs to maintain an active lifestyle. It describes a research and knowledge translation process involving community partners, researchers, and implementation. Resources developed include physical activity guidelines, a counseling service called Get in Motion, and the Active Homes program. The goal is to communicate appropriate messages to people with SCIs and clinicians about the benefits of physical activity.

The area of regenerative medicine is an excit-
ing one. There are many new and innovative
techniques under investigation by scientists
around the world. In 2003, we focused our
efforts almost exclusively on regeneration of an
improved tissue for resurfacing of articular
cartilage defects that typically lead to degenera-
tive osteoarthritis. We have been working in
the promising area of gene therapy in collabo-
ration with Drs. Wayne McIlwraith and David
Frisbie at Colorado State University. Following is
some background information and a summary of our most recent findings. This work is ongoing, and the encouraging results presented here will allow us to continue to focus on this work in the coming years.
Osteoarthritis is a debilitating, progressive disease characterized by the deterioration of articular cartilage and accompanied by changes in the bone and soft tissues of the joint. Traumatic injury to joints is also often associated with acute damage to the articular carti- lage. Unfortunately, joint cartilage is a tissue with poor healing poten- tial. Once damaged, cartilage typically does not heal, or it may heal with fibrous tissue that does not function as it should. Such tissue does not possess the biomechanical and biochemical properties of the original hyaline cartilage; hence, the integrity of the articular sur- face and normal joint function are compromised. The result often is osteoarthritis.

HOW FAR ARE WE IN THE DONATION OF ORGANS IN INDIA? – A REVIEW
ABSTRACT
Organ Donation Day is observed every year on 13th day of August. Due to lack of awareness and widespread idea about the organ donation, there are myths and fears in peoples’ mind about donating the organs. The aim of this day is to motivate fellow human beings to pledge and donate the organs after death and to create awareness about the importance of organ donation. Indian Transplantation of Human Organs Act (THOA) 1994 & 2011 - was enacted to provide a system of removal, storage and transplantation of human organs for therapeutic purposes and for the prevention of commercial dealings in human organs. THOA is now adopted by all States except Andhra and J&K, who have their own similar laws.
Organ Donation is the process of surgically donating a donor's organs like heart, liver, kidneys, intestines, lungs, and pancreas, after the donor dies for the purpose of transplanting them into another person who is in need of an organ. According to a survey in India every year about 500,000 people die because of non-availability of organs, 200,000 people die due to liver disease and 50,000 people die because of heart disease.
Brain Stem death is recognized as a legal death in India under the THOA like many other countries, which has revolutionized the concept of organ donation after death. After natural cardiac death only a few organs/tissues can be donated (like cornea, bone, skin and blood vessels) whereas after brain stem death almost 37 different organs can be donated including vital organs such as kidneys, heart, liver and lungs. Despite a facilitatory law, organ donation from deceased persons continues to be very poor. The organ donor can play a big role in saving other’s life.
To increase the awareness about organ donation to general public and health care professionals, the Central Government of India made - NOTTO: National
Organ and Tissue Transplant Organization, ROTTO: Regional Organ and Tissue Transplant Organization and National Organ Transplant Programmes along with various public health programmes incorporating the role of public health professionals all across the country.

A short presentation I did as a part of a lot of other techie smarty pants that use technology to get stuff done in their non-profit life. My piece shows how, by using a mail merge to Outlook, we increase event signups significantly.
Accessibility and lms, and how people with disabilities use technologyChad Leaman
A presentation made on Aug 6 at Simon Fraser University to a Master's of Education program class focused on selecting an LMS. My presentation focused on how people with disabilities use technology, and may encounter barriers, and techniques administrators and course designers can use to increase inclusion and access for all learners.
Teaching social media to people who help people get jobs.
For the poll questions, I'm getting them to stand up and place themselves on a line. Example: I like technology question. One end is the I love it, and use it while on the toilet. The other end is, when I retire I'm throwing my smartphone out the window. Good mix.
Talked about some of the why's to use social media, then dove into how it might actually work.

A summary of some of our work with the Penticton Indian Band from 2006 - 2010, serving Aboriginals and other community members with disabilities. Doesn't include our more recent online computer tutoring, wage subsidy, and other labour market programming.
A three part presentation:
1 - a guessing game played with audience members to identify stats around the inclusion of people with disabilities.
2 - the services of the Neil Squire Society
3 - myths and reality checks about the capabilities and the business case for hiring people with disabilities.
I delivered this presentation Saturday May 17th 2014 at the BC People First conference in New Westminster, BC.
The Government of Canada offers a variety of programs and tax credits to assist people with disabilities. The majority of these programs are available through filing your taxes. This presentation was given by MP Peter Julian on April 16, 2014 in Burnaby, but has been shared by him a number of times over the last 9 years.
A presentation on why and how to use LinkedIn, some tips to make it less painful, and some basics that everyone should do. Was delivered March 14 to staff at Neil Squire Society. Goal is to remove the fear and empower people to use social networking to further the organization's mission.
Lots of screenshots to show examples, so many people are included without their direct consent (but they use LinkedIn, so they chose their information to be available this way).

In the Adani-Hindenburg case, what is SEBI investigating.pptxAdani case
Adani SEBI investigation revealed that the latter had sought information from five foreign jurisdictions concerning the holdings of the firm’s foreign portfolio investors (FPIs) in relation to the alleged violations of the MPS Regulations. Nevertheless, the economic interest of the twelve FPIs based in tax haven jurisdictions still needs to be determined. The Adani Group firms classed these FPIs as public shareholders. According to Hindenburg, FPIs were used to get around regulatory standards.

Editor's Notes
Who have come together with common mission
Importantly, SCI AC is about more than just research.
Our ogranizational blueprint is based on the idea that the community-uni partners work together to generate research, whicis then translated intro products and services that are mobilized into the SCI community. You can see that the partnership is at the heart of these activities.
Lets take a step back and discuss the how of SCI Action Canada started. A few years ago, a group of SCI researchers wanted to investigate physical activity participation among people with SCI. Very little was known about what kinds of activities and how much activity people with SCI are participating in. The Study of Health and Activity in People with SCI (or SHAPE-SCI) was a multi-centre study that measured LTPA participation rates among approximately 700 participants with SCI.
Findings from SHAPE-SCI indicate that a large segment of the SCI population may be inactive. 54% of individuals with paraplegia and 52% of individuals with tetraplegia in the SHAPE-SCI study did no activity whatsoever.Martin Ginis, Latimer, Arbour-Nicitopoulos, Bray, et al., 2010a
A team of researchers from McMaster University, Brock University, and Parkwood Hospital performed a systematic review of all of the published evidence regarding the effects of exercise on the physical fitness of people with SCI. The interpretation of the research and formulation of the guidelines was then done by a consensus panel of researchers and community service representatives from across Canada. This is the exact same process as has been used by the Canadian Society for Exercise Physiology to develop Canada’s new PAG for the general population.
The PAG provide recommendations for how often, how much, how hard, and how to engage in both strength training and aerobic activity.
The SCI Get Fit Toolkit is a four-page brochure that can be downloaded from the SCI Action Canada website at http://www.sciactioncanada.ca/guidelines/toolkit.cfmThe toolkit is designed to help Canadians meet the physical activity guidelines for adults with SCI. You’ll notice that the toolkit reiterates the PAG, and includes information about… (read list) However, sometimes reading the information is not enough to make it stick, or sometimes you need some extra motivation. Therefore, SCI AC developed other initiatives including..
Get in Motion is the first-ever national physical activity counseling service for Canadians with a spinal cord injury. The service is free and is implemented completely by telephone. Get in Motion is designed to provide people with spinal cord injury the opportunity to speak with an exercise counselor in order to gain support in starting or maintaining an exercise program.
Not all strength training has to be done in a gym! In fact, SCI Action Canada has developed home-based strength training manuals to help you get active in your home. We called these manuals “Active Homes” and there is one for people with paraplegia, and one for people with tetraplegia. You can download a pdf copy of the Active Homes manuals from the SCI Action Canada website at http://www.sciactioncanada.ca/activehomes.cfmScroll down for version for adults with tetraplegia.
