To get the most out of the labs, you should have foundational knowledge of a programming language like Python and be comfortable using the command-line interface. While expertise is not required, a basic understanding of Cloud computing concepts, web APIs, and containerization technology like Docker will be highly beneficial.

Toronto Vegan Drinks 💞 Valent❤️Onion🧅Edition💘❄️
Vegan Drinks is a social event for those interested in making new friends and meeting like-minded people. We meet up on the last Friday of the month. You don't have to be a vegan to come and enjoy the fun (in fact we encourage you to bring your veg and non-veg friends!), but only vegan food and drinks are available for purchase. There is no cover charge but we encourage everyone to support our hosts by buying some food and/or drinks!
This month, we’re warming up winter with a late-bloom Valentine twist at the vibrant Dosa Mahal on Roncesvalles! ❄️🌿✨ Sure, Valentine’s Day may be behind us — but love (and onions) come in many layers, and neither one follows a calendar.
Welcome to Valent-Onion: a celebration of cozy connection, great conversation, and the kind of food that makes your heart flutter and your eyes water (in the best way). 🧅🥲💘
Come thaw out with us over comfort classics — from crispy dosas to bold, flavorful bites — and let a little spring onion energy peek through the winter window… a tiny edible reminder that brighter days are on the way. 🌱🥞
Immerse yourself in an exclusively vegan evening by our gracious hosts - engaging conversations, unwind in the welcoming atmosphere, and tantalize your taste buds - with Dosa Mahal's mouthwatering delights (https://dosamahal.com/). From scrumptious grub to refreshing drinks, gluten-free dosas and pakoras, there's something for everyone to enjoy.
**💘 Valent-Onion Event**
For this special winter edition, we’re keeping things warm, friendly, and deliciously vegan. Whether you’re single, coupled, complicated, or just here for the dosa — you’re invited.
Expect:
✨ great company
✨ cozy winter vibes
✨ bold flavours
✨ and maybe a little onion romance
**How does it work?**
*This will be a dry event. Bring your stories, not your spirits 😊*
Just show up, have fun, and meet new people! Name tags will be available so you won't have to remember a million names! Talk about your interests, your favourite recipes and restaurants, your dream job to save the animals, the environment, your ethics, or anything and everything!
Come for the food. Stay for the connections. Leave with a full heart (and possibly a little onion breath) 🧅💛

Discover the Rewards of Serving Life
***How does service to loved ones and to life itself help to achieve Soul’s mission?***
"Service is something Soul gives naturally in gratitude for the gift of life.
"The destiny of each Soul is to become a Co-worker with God, to serve all life in Soul's own unique way. This is the pulsebeat of the ECK path.
"There are many ways to give of oneself. It can be the conscious giving of love and care to your family or to your social, civic, or religious community.
"The entire reason for Soul's journey is to learn the spiritual need for giving."
—Harold Klemp, *ECKANKAR: The Art of Spirituality*, p. 25

"What is Your Heart Telling You?" - Newmarket Eck Light and Sound Service
* Explore how spiritual guidance manifests itself in your life - from waking dreams to quiet inner nudges.
* Learn to love fully and experience life with a more open heart
“A waking dream is something that happens in the outer, everyday life that has spiritual significance.”
—Harold Klemp, *The Secret of Love*, *p. 128*
**“Beyond experience is something much more important, and this is simply learning how to give and receive God’s love. And that’s not experience. That’s a condition. That’s being able to open your heart, to open your wings, to accept the gifts of life.**
**The gifts are all around you all the time. Most often they come to us as acts of kindness by people near us.”**
-Harold Klemp,*The Secret of Love*, p. 167

For this event, we’ll help prepare food, serve meals, assist residents, wash dishes and clean surfaces at Fath Mission – Grant Kitchen. We have a great little community of Movie Group friends so rather than see a movie this time, we’ll help “Create a better world” by helping serve those in need. Here are complete details and our plan for this event:
FAITH MISSION – GRANT KITCHEN: The Faith Mission kitchen and dining room serves residents 3 meals a day, every day of the year. Our group will help prepare food, serve meals, assist residents in the dining room, wash dishes, and clean surfaces.
PLAN: We will be preparing / serving / cleaning for BRUNCH from 10:30am to 12:30pm and have space for a total of 7 volunteers. Please arrive at 10:15am and wear closed-toe shoes and long pants.

IMPORTANT REMINDER: Our group will be providing the all of the volunteers on this day so a firm RSVP count is essential. Please only sign up if you are certain you’ll be able to attend. If something unavoidable comes up, please update your RSVP no later than one week prior to the event. With very few exceptions, no shows or cancelations within 1 week of the event will not be eligible for future CMG Gives Back events. I appreciate your understanding as we try to ensure the agencies have the volunteers needed to provide the essential services they provide to the vulnerable population they serve.
THANK YOU: This CMG Gives Back event provides an opportunity for YOU to get involved in helping others! Benefits go well beyond the help we give to others. Volunteering provides a wide range of personal benefits, including positive effects on mental and physical health, reduced stress/depression/anxiety, increased happiness and improved purpose, life-satisfaction and personal well-being! Plus, the opportunity to get involved, connect with others and help those in need.
PARTNER AGENCY: This event is hosted by Lutheran Social Services (LSS), which serves thousands of people in need each day in 27 Ohio counties by addressing the four core societal issues of food, shelter, safety and healing. LSS offers food through the LSS Food Pantries, housing and supportive services through LSS Faith Mission and LSS Faith Mission of Fairfield County homeless shelters, domestic violence services through LSS CHOICES for Victims of Domestic Violence, senior living and health care, affordable housing communities, and other services that uplift families and strengthen communities.
Look forward to seeing you there, Dan

Senior Coffee Group
This is just a fun group to socialize, get out of the house, and meet new people.
CBusData - Discover the Power of Window Functions
Window functions have nothing to do with the Windows operating system but provide a “window” to a result set when used in SQL queries. They are powerful, set-based methods to view data in unexpected ways. Window functions provide easy, set-based solutions to solve some common problems:
* Using running totals
* Performing operations in intervals
* Identifying data gaps and islands
* Performing aggregates without losing detail
Many people are confused by window functions and do not know how to use them properly. This session will explore window functions, how they work, and how to use them. Demonstrations with several examples will solidify how window functions can simplify queries and make them more powerful.
