Random information on the term “YAM”:

Yam is the common name for some plant species in the genus Dioscorea (family Dioscoreaceae) that form edible tubers. Yams are perennial herbaceous vines cultivated for the consumption of their starchy tubers in Asia, Africa, Central and South America, and Oceania. The tubers themselves are also called “yams”. There are many different cultivars of yams.

In parts of the United States and Canada, “yam” is sometimes used to refer to varieties of the completely unrelated sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas).

The name, yam, appears to derive from Portuguese inhame or Canarian (Spain) ñame, which are probably derived from West African languages, such as Fulani, Serer, or Wolof.[citation needed] The main derivations borrow from verbs meaning “to eat”.[citation needed]

Several other unrelated root vegetables are sometimes referred to as “yams”, including:

Yams are monocots, related to lilies and grasses. Native to Africa and Asia, yam tubers vary in size from that of a small potato to over 60 kg (130 lb). Over 600 varieties of yams are known, and 95% of these crops are grown in Africa.

Random information on the term “OCA”:

The Court of Appeal for Ontario (frequently referred to as Ontario Court of Appeal or OCA) is headquartered in downtown Toronto, in historic Osgoode Hall.

The Court is composed of 23 judges who hear over 1,500 appeals each year, on issues of private law, constitutional law, criminal law, administrative law, and other matters. The Supreme Court of Canada hears appeals from less than 3% of the decisions of the Court of Appeal; in a very practical sense, the Court of Appeal is the last avenue of appeal for most litigants in Canada’s most populous province. Among the Court of Appeal’s most notable decisions was a 2003 ruling that legalized same-sex marriage in Ontario, making Canada the first jurisdiction in the world where same-sex marriage was legalized by a court ruling. Among many judges from the Court who have been elevated to the Supreme Court of Canada are Justices Rosalie Abella, Louise Arbour, Peter Cory, Louise Charron, Andromache Karakatsanis, Bora Laskin, Michael Moldaver and Bertha Wilson. Justice Bertha Wilson was the first female justice on both the Ontario Court of Appeal (1975) and the Supreme Court of Canada (1982).
