Halloween is coming to 4K Ultra HD just in time for the holiday its named after. The original John Carpenter horror classic defined the slasher genre upon its release in 1978 and has hardly aged a day, in terms of its effectiveness, in the 40 years since it first made its way to theaters. But times have changed and movie lovers are used to watching stuff in high definition these days, with 4K Ultra HD being the latest innovation for cinephiles.
No official announcement has been made by the studio in regards to the release, but retailer Barnes and Noble has confirmed that the Halloween 4K release is coming our way this October. They initially listed the release on their website, but with so little information available, it was difficult to know if this was the real deal or not. Then, when asked on Twitter if the release listed on their site is indeed the original John Carpenter Halloween, the retailer confirmed this to be the case.
"Yes, it's the original 1978 film."
That's downright terrific news for horror fans who want to see Michael Myers cutting up teenagers in the highest definition currently available on the consumer market. 4K Ultra HD refers to the pixel resolution and this particular format is 3840 x 2160. Basically, the more pixels you have, the better the picture will be. 4K also features improved audio. While not everyone yet owns a 4K capable TV, those are becoming far more affordable and you don't need to buy a new media device to play the discs, as they work on any Blu-ray player.
One nice element of such 4K releases is that they typically come with some new artwork and a host of new special features. Unfortunately, at the present time, there is little to no information available, in terms of what this release of Halloween is going to come with. What we know for sure is that it will hit shelves on October 2 and that the release will come with two discs. Beyond that, it's still up in the air. We should expect more specific information to arrive shortly. Also of note; Barnes and Noble currently has it listed for $19.65, which is pretty reasonable.

This comes at the perfect time as the new Halloween movie, which comes from director David Gordon Green and is produced by Blumhouse, makes its way to theaters on October 19. Fans can first get their hands on this new 4K Ultra HD copy of the original and watch that in all of its high definition glory before heading out to theaters in order to see what Michael Myers and Laurie Strode are getting up to all these years later. Since this new movie is a direct sequel to the original, it works out even better. You can pre-order Halloween in 4K over at Barnes and Noble right now.
Yes, it's the original 1978 film. ^AT— B&N Customer Care (@BN_care) July 24, 2018

Centre's mission Kashmir seems to be losing steam
The visit to Kashmir this week by the Centre's representative, former Intelligence Bureau Chief Dineshwar Sharma, has ended with even less hope that a way forward will emerge. In fact, commenting on the visit, former RAW chief and long-time IB operative Amarjit Singh Dulat remarked that 'I hope they don't reduce him (Sharma) to a zero.' Dulat, who has led the Centre's covert talks initiatives in the past, acknowledged that hope appears to have dimmed. Increased Numbers To be sure, a larger number of delegations met Sharma than during his…Read More
Zakir Musa's portrait displayed during Milad procession in South Kashmir
In an extraordinary development in South Kashmir's Pulwama district, the Sufi sect of Muslims displayed portraits of militants including that of al-Qaida's Kashmir chief Zakir Musa during the Eid-ul Milad procession on Friday, police sources said. Al-Qaida emphasises on Wahhabism that discourages shrine-going and even observing the birthday of the Prophet Mohammad. Milad celebrations are in complete contradiction with the philosophy of al-Qaida, which propagates extremism and call for Islamic caliphate. Security forces allowed the procession but there were clashes in South Kashmir's Anantnag district after some youth who were…Read More
Tibetan Muslims who have made Kashmir their home
Sometimes when you think you know a place, you come across a fresh aspect of it, which reminds you how little you know. I've been visiting Kashmir fairly regularly for more than twenty years. I have been to Hari Parbat fort, the magnificent Mughal-era monument which dominates the Srinagar skyline. But I had never before come across the small, quiet, community that nestles in its shadow. Two thousand or more Tibetans have made their home in Srinagar. These are Tibetan Muslims. A few Muslim families remain in the Tibetan capital,…Read More
India must 'Cherish and Nurture' its Muslims: Obama to Modi

Obama touched on a host of topics, including his relationship with Narendra Modi and Manmohan Singh, terrorism, Pakistan, the hunt for Osama bin Laden and his love for Indian 'dal' and 'keema', during his address and the question-answer session that followed. Obama, the first African American president of…Read More

Why deaths no more depress Kashmir's Gravediggers
Death can never be a cause for jubilation, but for a community living in Kashmir, death is not depressing either. In fact, death keeps them alive.

Amnesty to stone pelters leaves BJP legislators upset
Wanted party brass to push cases of cadre, Jammu youth too A day after Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti had ordered the withdrawal of stone-throwing cases against 4,327 youth of the Kashmir valley, anger brewed in the local unit of the BJP as the party's lawmakers cautioned that this action would prove disastrous in the Jammu region. The Chief Minister, reportedly on the recommendations of the Centre's special representative Dineshwar Sharma, had announced amnesty for first-time stone throwers.

To the Editor:
Retain Trustee Jim Anhalt on the Spring Grove Village Board. Anhalt has a record for getting things done that are meaningful to all residents. As head of Public Works, he secured a grant and got the walking, jogging and biking paved path constructed along Winn Road.
If you noticed an improvement in snow removal from village roads during this particularly bitter winter, you can thank Anhalt for it. For decades, residents have been asking the state of Illinois for traffic lights at the intersection of Route 173 and Wilmot Road.
Anhalt has tackled that, too, with the needed traffic lights scheduled for installation this spring. If you value good service and effective leadership in Spring Grove, please don't hesitate to vote for Anhalt; just as he didn't hesitate to break up a bank robbery as an off-duty Chicago police officer taking a bullet in the process.
Change is only beneficial when it's for the better, definitely not the case here, so vote for Jim Anhalt on April 2.

This article talks about what to look for to determine if your child is showing symptoms of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) also known as Pervasive Developmental Disorders (PDDs). Also discussed are the next steps after determining that you are concerned your child may be exhibiting symptoms of ASD.
The reason autism is considered to be on a spectrum is because autism affects people in different ways, ranging from a mild impact on daily functioning to a severe impact.
Research shows that children with autism spectrum disorder achieve the most independence and success when they receive intervention as early as possible, so if you suspect an autism spectrum disorder, talk to a professional right away. Don't wait, thinking that your child will grow out of his/her symptoms.
In general, symptoms of autism spectrum disorder appear before three years of age. However, it is very common for parents to notice or become concerned about symptoms for the first time after age three. If you are concerned that your child is exhibiting any of the symptoms below to a significant degree (regardless of age), it is imperative to talk to the appropriate professionals to determine if you child needs and is eligible for any specialized services. It is never to late to start getting help for your child.
Symptoms of Autism
- Difficulty participating in a back and forth conversation
- Difficulty making eye contact
- Difficulty understanding what others mean in conversation
- Difficulty using language to communicate wants, needs, and/or share information
- Difficulty with non-verbal communication. For example: not reading others' body language; not using common gestures such as nodding, shrugging shoulders, hand gestures when speaking; not showing many facial expressions when communicating or when emotional reactions are expected
- Does not initiate conversations or play with others, prefers to play alone
- Very limited interests (e.g., only liking to play with the same few toys all the time or talk about or study the same few topics all the time)
- Does not play with toys as expected (e.g. may line toys up, spin or inspect the parts of toys, or not show interest in toys at all)
- Has difficulty in a new environment, around new people, or when things do not go as planned
- Has trouble shifting from one activity to another
- Insists on doing things the same way or in the same order each time
- Appears overly sensitive to noises, textures, sounds, smells, or touch
- Makes repetitive body movements such as rocking back and forth, spinning, flapping hands, flicking fingers
Here are some signs to look for children two and under that may also indicate your child may benefit from an evaluation to determine possible autism spectrum disorder or other developmental delays
- You child does not use gestures such as pointing or waving by 12 months
- Your child has not babbled or cooed by 12 months
- You child does not respond to his/her name by 12 months
- You child has not said any words by 16 months
- Your child had language skills and seems to have lost them
- Your child does not say two-word phrases to express wants or needs (e.g., more juice, give me) or share information (e.g., look, doggie) by 24 months
- You child does not make eye contact or only has brief moments of eye contact
- Your child does not respond to or make facial expressions
Your child may have one or all of the signs or symptoms mentioned above and each symptom can vary in frequency and intensity. If you notice any of these symptoms to a degree that causes you to be concerned, bring it to the attention of a professional to determine your next steps. Also, keep in mind that some children who are not on the autism spectrum can have some of these symptoms, so do not jump to the conclusion that your child has autism without a proper evaluation. Additionally, some of the signs and symptoms above can be present in children with hearing or vision impairments. Have your doctor determine if hearing or vision problems can be causing some of the behaviors or communication difficulties you see in your child.
If you are concerned that your child is exhibiting the symptoms discussed in this article, make sure to tell your family doctor. He should give you a referral to the appropriate professionals to give your child a formal evaluation. You can also contact a private child psychologist or psychiatrist and ask for an evaluation. Another option is to have your child evaluated through an outpatient mental health clinic. Outpatient clinics generally have psychologists or psychiatrists who conduct autism evaluations. Do a Google Search for mental health clinics in your area. Contact the clinics listed in your search to discuss scheduling an evaluation (keep in mind that some clinics have long waiting lists so you may want to contact as many as possible to find the first available appointment). You can also look up reviews, find the clinics you want to go with and then call around for the first available appointment. Your child's school or early intervention team (see more on early intervention below) may also have recommendations for clinics in your area to get an autism evaluation. If you are using your child's health insurance, you can call the insurance company to find out which private psychologists, psychiatrists, and clinics are covered.
You can also ask your child's school for an autism evaluation. For children not yet in kindergarten, you can receive a free evaluation through your state's early intervention program. Do a Google Search for early intervention in your area and contact them for an evaluation.
Early intervention evaluations do not always provide a specific diagnosis such as autism, but they can tell you if your child has any developmental delays and if he/she is eligible for early intervention services such as speech/language therapy, occupational therapy, physical therapy, or specially designed instruction (academic readiness skills such as letters, colors, numbers, shapes, etc. taught by a special education teacher).
For children in grades k through 12, evaluations conducted by the school can lead to an educational classification of autism and entitle your child to special education services. Keep in mind that special education looks very different from what it looked like in the past. Children can receive special education services in the general education classroom or in a smaller class setting, depending on the needs of the child.
If your child is doing fine academically and not demonstrating behavior problems at school, it is unlikely that a school evaluation is the best route to go. The main purpose of a school evaluation is to determine if your child needs special education. Even if your child has an autism spectrum disorder, special education may not be necessary if he/she succeeding in a general education classroom without support. If you believe this is the case, but still would like to get help for your child outside of school, a private evaluation through a psychologist or psychiatrist, or clinic would be a better option. If you are concerned about your child's social skills in school but not concerned about his academic progress or behavior, talk to you child's school team (guidance counselor, principal, teacher, etc.) to determine what programs the school might have to help your child with social skills. Some children with Autism Spectrum Disorder need specific instruction on how to relate socially to others.
Receiving the classification of developmental delay or autism through an early intervention or school based evaluation is not the same as receiving a medical diagnosis of an autism spectrum disorder from a psychologist or psychiatrist. Early intervention and school based evaluations do not help with receiving non school related services such as wrap around support (e.g., receiving professional behavior support for your child from a community agency), exploring medication as an option, or seeking out private therapies or groups not provided by the district or state (e.g. speech/language, OT, physical therapy, social skills groups). If your child receives a diagnosis of an Autism Spectrum Disorder, talk to the professional who gave the diagnosis, about what services your child can benefit from and exactly where to find those services. You can also do a Google Search for autism services and resources in your area. Contact the agencies on the list to find out what services or resources they have to help you or your child.
If you would like to learn more about caring for or working with a child with Autism Spectrum Disorder, read Ten Things Every Child with Autism Wishes You Knew, shown below.
This informative book helps you to understand autism, and teaches you how to work with children on the autism spectrum in a positive and practical way.

- This book is great for ANYONE who cares for simply wants to understand children with autism. It really breaks everything down nicely in a way that everyone can understand. It really helped me. My 5 yo has autism. Thanks!
- This is absolutely the best book to read about children with autism. The author shares her experiences and is very in-tune with her child. I bought several copies to hand out to family to help them understand a beautiful child with autism in our family. Very good and easy read.
Another highly rated product for parents with children who have Autism Spectrum Disorder is the e-book A Parent's Guide To Living With Autism Spectrum Disorder, written by Kerri Stocks, the mother of a child with Autism Spectrum Disorder.

Here are some reviews from parents and professionals that purchased A Parent's Guide To Living With Autism Spectrum Disorder:
- Kerri has helped so much with the understanding of ASD and behaviors children present. We were lost as to what to do about our son. Family and friends just saw him as a naughty child but we knew there was more. Kerri was able to answer our questions and we had many of those. With Kerri's help and guidance and a lot of trial and error we are starting to see a fantastic change. Thank you Kerri, you were meant to be a healer of children.
- I really need to say that I have very much enjoyed your newsletters and the book which I have read. You have a unique ability to get inside the minds of these special people and be their voice. This is a great help for the average parent who struggles to understand what is happening inside their heads. Understanding this leads to greater patience and tolerance. Outlining your personal experiences with the school system also helps parents to realize they are not alone in this confusing world nor are their children as terrible as they can appear. With patience and work there is hope. Thank you for being a pioneer in this area. I would recommend your books and newsletters to anyone looking for help in this area.
- As a social worker and therapist who has worked with children for over 17 years, I was thrilled to see a resource that will help children navigate the complexity of communication and social interaction. Children with Spectrum Disorders often struggle in finding a way to be understood and to understand how to fit into the world around them.

text: The late Steve Jobs was known for his successes in life: being the CEO and Cofounder of Apple, which currently is the most valuable company in the world, and Pixar Animation Studios, which also is has been extremely successful. In this 2005 commencement address at Stanford, Jobs explores the topic of death and how we should view it in a different light. This speech was truly beautiful. No unnecessarily big words, full of countless quotes anyone could use. Some of the quotes that capture the essence of Jobs' speech were "You are already naked, there is no reason not to follow your heart", "Stay hungry. Stay foolish", and "If you live each day as if it were your last, someday you'll most certainly be right." These advices are perfect for dreamers from all backgrounds. It is almost scary to think of how at this moment, Jobs had no idea he would be dead in five short years. Come to think about it, no one knows for sure when they will die. A normal day, exactly like the rest of the Saturdays in your recent history, could very easily be your last. There is no reason to suspect your fate to come so soon, but fate does not always knock before entering your life. As Steve Jobs explained, death is promised and could come at any moment. An example of this is the Clutter family murders. Children, parents, everyone in the house, slaughtered by two who had very little connection to the Clutter family. Kenyon and Nancy, the two children in the house on the night of that tragic event, had so much to live for, just like every other young person who passes away. Were they satisfied with the life they had lived up to that point? Only they will know. Out of In Cold Blood, and this speech by Steve Jobs, there is an important lesson to be learned. Don't be afraid of death, there's no escaping it. Since death can come at any moment, be sure to constantly live a life worth living. Stay Hungry. Stay foolish.

Spring Conference
John Bowlby introduced Attachment Theory to the world of psychotherapy in the 1950's, and it has never left 'centre stage'. By combining the innovative methodology of Mary Salter Ainsworth, it has been able to withstand the test of time, leading to the quote by Martin Seager (a recent TAP conference speaker) that, 'Attachment Theory is probably the best attested concept in psychology'. However the developmental work has never stood still, and as John Bowlby wished, the theory should be regarded as a concept on which to build. New perspectives and research are influencing the current direction of the theory, which will increasingly affect the work we do as therapists.

TAP Conference Sat. 9th March 2013
Dialogues Around Depression
Concerns, Critiques and Solutions
Depression continues to blight the lives of millions. In recent years CBT has become the 'treatment of choice' by NICE and is now integral to the IAPT programme. But is it the only way? How does it compare with other modes of therapy? Is treatment more about the therapeutic relationship or the technique? How do you decide what is best for your clients or patients?
These are some of the challenging questions we hope to address in the 2013 conference. There are genuine differences of opinion and no easy answers but here is an opportunity to question and contribute and we should have plenty to take away from this day. In addition to these top speakers, for the first time we will have some short 'vignettes' of personal experience to enrich and inform the day.
TAP has a reputation for attracting national or distinguished local speakers.
Depression: from a medicalised to a psychologically minded approach.
Martin is a clinical psychologist, lecturer, broadcaster and activist on mental health issues. He has worked at the Tavistock, is a consultant for the Samaritans, a member of the Mental Health Advisory Board College of Medicine and has worked in the NHS for almost 30 years.
Martin will question the quality of the science underpinning traditional views of depression and show how in truth, depression is a very vague and wide term. By referring to clinical practice, everyday life, the arts, and works by himself and other authors, he will explore ways of making our mental health services and society as a whole less depresso-genic and more psychologically minded.
Martin Seager, in 2007, was commissioned by the then Secretary of State for Health to lead an advisory group from a broad range of psychological approaches, to delve deeper into the core science of human mental well-being. The group comprised Susie Orbach, Andrew Samuels, Valerie Sinason, Lucy Johnson, Martin Seager, Glenda Fredman, Ross Hughes, James Antrican, Peter Kinderman and Margaret Wilkinson. (Three of the ten had been TAP conference speakers on different occasions.)
Martin Seager has worked for the NHS for almost thrity years and is a member of the Mental health advisory board College of Medicine. he also wrote the cover article for the September issue of Therapy Today, the BACP magazine.
Mindfulness-based Cognitive Therapy - Preventing Depression Relapse
Alison Evans is a mindfulness based cognitive therapist working in the Moods Disorders Centre at Exeter University, and is the Programme Lead for the Diploma and MSc courses in MBCT. She has extensive experience of dealing with depression. Her work includes research into preventing relapse for patients with a history of recurrent depression.
She is a co-founder of the Exeter Mindfulness Network. Mindfulness has an extensive research base and is becoming widely recognised as a major therapeutic tool. Alison will present both the theoretical basis of her approach and, by using casework, how the MBCT course supports people to make changes.
Dr CHRISTOPHER IRONS
A compassion focused therapy approach to working with depression
Dr. Christopher Irons is a clinical psychologist working in a Community Mental Health Team in London. He is an accredited trainer and supervisor of compassion focused therapy (CFT), and regularly presents to academic, professional and lay audiences on CFT and more broadly, the science of compassion.
Drawing upon research from evolutionary psychology, attachment theory, developmental and neuro-sciences, Christopher will be discussing whether CFT may provide a useful psychotherapeutic approach to working with depression and how CFT may also augment traditional Cognitive Behavioural approaches.
(Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT) was developed by Professor Paul Gilbert. Some of his patients told that they had come to understand their thoughts and behaviour but felt little better. Consequently, he drew upon evolutionary biology, neuroscience and Buddhism to create CFT, for which he received the OBE in 2011. Professor Gilbert warmly recommended Dr. Christopher Irons as a speaker at this year's TAP Conference.)
TAP Conference Sat. 24th March 2012
'Creativity, Dreams & the Imagination'
Our conference will consider three views from three eminent speakers, Ian Rees, Maggie Peters and Dr Lynne McClelland.

TAP Conference Spring 2011
Saturday 12th March 2011, 9.15am-4.30pm
Enlightened Psychotherapy
Neuroscience and the Nature of Consciousness
Psychotherapy and counselling are often referred to as 'talking therapies'. Does this ignore the possible physical or spiritual attributes which make up the whole human being? Neuroscience has made great strides in recent years in understanding the brain, so demonstrating how various functions are linked. There is also increasing recognition of the role of the physical body. Transpersonal psychology is now taught at University level.
So how far, if at all, does the latest cutting edge research and thinking give us reason to modify our understanding and practice of therapy?
Our conference will consider three views from three eminent speakers. After a presentation covering the latest developments in neuroscience each of our speakers will in turn go on to present their views on how this work could influence their thinking and the way they practice.
Our speakers:
Margaret Wilkinson
Margaret has been a keynote speaker at BACP conference and recommended by last year's popular contributor, Andrew Reeves. Her book 'Coming into Mind' argues that the new developments in neuroscience must be acknowledged if psychotherapy is to progress through the 21st century. Her books have been endorsed by Professors Andrew Samuels and Joy Schaverein both former TAP conference speakers. Conference Presentation
Kathrin Stauffer
Kathrin is a registered body and integrative psychotherapist. Having trained originally in biochemistry she became more interested in the subjective aspect of the human body. Her book 'Anatomy and Physiology for Psychotherapists: Connecting Body and Soul', sets out her present thinking. She is the current chair of the Chiron Association for Body Psychotherapists.
Mark Shiels
Mark practises in London as a core process psychotherapist, working with clients using a transpersonal psychotherapeutic framework whilst recognising and affirming the emotional, intellectual, physical and spiritual parts of our being. He trained at the Karuna Institute and is committed to an inclusive, ecumenical (non-sectarian) approach to therapy.
Saturday 20th March 2010
9.15am - 4.45pm
Engaging Teens, Involving Men and Including the Excluded
Politicians campaign on the theme of 'Broken Britain' and the 'Fractured Family'. We live in a time of sweeping changes in society, in family structure and gender roles, whilst economic developments have brought prosperity to some and poverty for others. The provision of counselling and psychotherapy has increased in recent decades, but the take-up has been unequal. The less affluent and men are less likely to access it, and once there, to remain in it. Has therapy anything to offer to the alienated? - to men with traditional views about their role? - to people from every class of society? Can - and should - therapy adapt to changing circumstances and values? TAP believes this is a challenging and relevant theme and we have invited three expert speakers to help us explore it.
Working Class Subjects and Psychotherapy Regimes: could psychotherapy become a space for working class protest, opposition and resistance?
Sally Sales has a long-standing interest in the formation of working class subjectivities within a dominant and colonising middle class culture. She will argue that psychotherapy has often been a normalising and pathologising experience for working class people. Dr Sales is a psychoanalyst and supervisor in private practice in Cornwall and Chair of training for the Site for Contemporary Psychoanalysis in London. She has researched the contested status of contemporary open adoption practices, including the marginal position of working class parents in child protection and adoption procedures.
Slugs and Snails and Puppy Dog Tails: Men, Masculinity and Counselling
Dr Andrew Reeves is a Senior BACP Accredited Counsellor/Psychotherapist and supervisor at the University of Liverpool Counselling Service. He has published articles on working with suicide, self-harm, and counselling with men. He published in 2008 Key Issues for Counselling in Action: Second Edition (with Prof Windy Dryden), and Counselling Suicidal Clients in 2010. He is a regular columnist for Therapy Today.
From Safe Child to Humane Adult:
The Enduring Impact of Complex Trauma (on Brain and Behaviour)
Christina Enright comes via nursing, psychology and family therapy. She is a qualified Integrative Child Psychotherapist with over nine years experience working with the most traumatised and marginalised children and their families. At Kids Company she does direct clinical work with a range of clients as well as working closely with staff teams in the assessment and monitoring of cases. She has a special interest in the development of more effective models of training and intervention for working with children and adolescents who have endured complex trauma, and is passionate about disseminating research evidence on its impact, particularly within the education system.

Puzzled by Product Packaging: Enriched vs. Fortified?// here is the normal content // ?>
Fortified and enriched are two terms that are often used interchangeably, but have very different meanings. Fortified foods have had nutrients added that were not originally present without processing. Foods are often fortified with nutrients when Americans have shown the struggle obtaining adequate amounts from the nutrient's natural sources. Here is a list of vitamins that are commonly fortified in the average American's diet:
- Vitamin D in milk or orange juice
- Iron in cereals
- Folate in bread products, flour, rice, and pasta
Enriched means nutrients that were already present in a food item but lost during processing have been put back in. Grains are an example of a product that are frequently enriched to make up for nutrient loss that occurred during processing. Bread is an excellent source of many nutrients required for a healthy body. Iron, thiamin, riboflavin, niacin, and folate are nutrients enriched in grain products.
These terms are seen on packages and signage all over the grocery store, and it can be confusing to know exactly what you are buying if you don't know what they mean! Being knowledgeable in the dietary lingo can help you make healthy food purchases for you and your family.

For some time now Mapper has had integrated support for taking dictations that then can be used for example in JOSM when editing maps. The dictation component was quite generic so I split it out and made it into a library and widget that can be used in other applications.
libdicto repo can be found here and release here. I just uploaded 1.0.6 to maemo extras builder.
As the widget is quite generic I also made a simple dictation app for the N900 (and soon for the N800/N810/770 too), called mydicto. As soon as libdicto is built I'll upload mydicto to the builder too.

libdicto & mydicto
2 comments:

Hi! I use mydicto very often since it is the best dictaphone application for N900 I have found. Have you considered making it easier to remove files from the gui and not through the file manager? It frequently happens to me that I have dozens of recordings I would like to eradicate. In mydicto, I would have to do it one by one, so I have to open the file manager and remove all at once. It would be nice if it were possible to remove all recordings at once from mydicto itself as well.

Thanks. Good idea. I'll see what I can do about that.

The Independent Investigation Unit of Manitoba (IIU) is investigating after a 46-year-old male was injured during his arrest by Winnipeg police.
On Wednesday, the Winnipeg Police Service notified the IIU that, earlier that day, officers had attended at an apartment block on Agnes Street following a report of a man who was agitated and threatening others. According to police, when officers arrived, the man was armed with a hammer and resisted arrest. He was shocked with a Taser and fell down a flight of stairs.
The man was subsequently taken to hospital where he was diagnosed with possible fractures to the neck or spine. He was discharged approximately 12 hours later and processed on criminal charges.
As a fracture of the vertebrae is defined as a serious injury under IIU regulations, the agency is mandated to investigate.
The investigation is ongoing. The IIU investigates all serious incidents involving police officers in Manitoba, whether occurring on or off duty.

In keeping with Pennington, there's one a part of the car that detailers keep away from if in any respect doable: the headliner. Even a bit bit of agitation could cause the glue in a headliner to fail, inflicting way more more issues than it's value. Hold your ministrations to a minimal in the case of cleansing, brushing and tending to the headliner material. If you positively should clean your headliner, use little or no moisture, and by no means enable it to soak by the outer cloth.

Very Happy
01 May 2015
If you want experienced, professional agents selling your home, then you won't find better than Shane and Kym. We chose them because they're local agents, who know the market inside out. They were very knowlegeable in helping us decide which marketing strategy we would use. They made sure that our house featured prominently on real estate websites, and didn't get lost in the crowd. After each home open, we got lots of feedback on what people thought about our house. When we had an offer on the table, they were very skilled at getting us the best possible price and closing the deal. Definitely a job well done!
Exceptional service
21 Apr 2015
Excellent team, exceptional service. Sold at the first open! We were selling our house from interstate and relied heavily on Shane and Kym. They helped us every step of the way and often went out of their way to get the job done (including sweeping leaves several times!) Shane always answered my calls and spent hours talking to me and discussing concerns. He is friendly, knowledgeable and experienced. We appreciated his direct and efficient manner to get the job done. The property we sold, we had purchased through Shane many years previously. As a buyer dealing with Shane, our experience was also very positive. He was friendly and professional with the same non-nonsense approach. We highly recommend Shane and Kym
Sold by the Vasile's

My wife and I were about to give up with selling our house until a letter popped into our mailbox from Kym letting us know that they might be able to help. Being local to the area we thought we would give their local knowledge a shot. Within the first home open we had an offer. Thanks Kym and Shane

Cellar Conversion
Trying to convert a cellar can often be problematic. A cellar is, according to the international Oxford Dictionary of English, a room that is below the ground level in a property and is often used for storing wine or coal. Hence, a cellar often comes with many specific features, like a constant cool temperature, that can make cellar conversion and cellar renovation more difficult. However, cellar conversions can be surprisingly straightforward with the help of advice from Basement Living.
Why could you benefit from an effective Cellar Conversion?
If your property has a cellar, as is especially likely if the property was built in the late 19th century or early 20th century, but you do not need to use it for its original purpose and so you want to use it for a different purpose, you could certainly benefit from effective cellar conversion and cellar renovation. You could, for example, turn the cellar into a comfortable and habitable living area including, modestly, extra bedrooms and living rooms or, ambitiously, swimming pools, gymnasiums and cinema rooms.
Why is it important to have effective waterproofing in Cellar Conversions?
Effective waterproofing is crucial to effective cellar conversions. Indeed, one big reason why more UK homeowners have recently been turning to such conversions is that many waterproofing methods and technologies have become more advanced and economically viable. One particularly effective modern method involves applying, without the requirement for much preparation to the walls provided that the substrate is appropriate, a Polyethylene sheet material called Cavity Drain Membrane.
This method of cellar waterproofing is better than using any cement based render, which can be much less reliable than it would have been in the past as water table levels increase and so lead to greater hydrostatic pressure on properties. Indeed, Cavity Drain Membrane provides further insulation value, not least due to its qualities of being vapour proof and impervious to water.
Before installation of such a membrane, a drainage provision will be installed that can ensure fast and effective evacuation of water ingress that stays under the membrane. Internal finishes of insulation and plasterboard or plaster and render products are also applied on front of the membrane to make the living area dry and effectively insulated. Provided that the system is aptly installed by an approved contractor and its drainage channels and pumps are maintained on an ongoing routine basis, the system should be capable of remaining as long as the property.

All in good time. As for now, this is my personal css playground.Find us other places, too:

Spider Facts
⦁ Do you have a painful blister with two puncture marks, an angry blister or a rash? You may have been bitten by a spider! Spider bites are usually nothing to worry about, but sometimes you could be the victim of a brown recluse or black widow.
⦁ No matter where spiders are in your home, they are overwhelming and can be incredibly scary. Even if you think the spiders on your walls or floor, hanging from your ceiling or in your garage are harmless, you are better off calling a professional pest removal company like Critter Control!
⦁ Some spiders are dangerous to your family, your pets, and you, so you shouldn't attempt to control the spiders on your own. You should identify the type of spider in your home or on your property so you can be sure it is dealt with in the best way.
Is This Spider Dangerous?
The category of dangerous spiders is predominantly made up of black widow spiders and brown recluse spiders. Each have unique characteristics that make them fairly easy to distinguish.
If you have an infestation of either of these dangerous spiders, you should consider calling pest services to minimize the risk of getting bitten.
⦁ The black widow spider characteristics vary depending upon gender.
⦁ Females have a red hourglass shape on the bottom of their abdomen.
⦁ Males are lighter in color and have red or pink spots on their back.
⦁ Females are about 1.5 inches long, and males are only half their size.
⦁ Brown recluse spiders are tan in color and have a dark brown violin marking on their back.
⦁ These spiders are attracted to clutter and can be found in woodpiles, inside of clothing, and inside storage areas.
Common Spiders in New Mexico
There are many New Mexico spiders that are not necessarily dangerous, but are still considered pests. There are two common types of spiders: hunter spiders and web-building spiders. Each has their own characteristics just as the dangerous spiders do. This information should be used to ensure your problem spider is not dangerous.
⦁ Hunter spiders get their name because of the way they locate their food. Types of hunter spiders like wolf spiders, jumping spiders, nursery web spiders, and crab spiders proactively hunt for their prey instead of passively waiting for it to get trapped in their web. Some of these spiders may be large enough to bite and cause swelling and pain, but pose no further danger like the black widow or brown recluse. Because of their large size, the wolf spider, for example, will alarm people and scare them away with their presence.
⦁ Orb weavers are a type of web-building spider. These webs are not like others. They build distinctive large round/circular webs. These spiders may be the most cosmetically inconvenient spiders.
⦁ Spiders may bite as a defense mechanism.
⦁ Black widows bites will cause excruciating pain.
⦁ Brown recluse bites will result in extreme pain, as well, and may cause an open sore.
⦁ The majority of spiders will build nests in isolated places and will be hard to locate until it's too late.
⦁ Web-building spiders will build nests in corners and windowsills, creating an aesthetic issue.
Spider Entry
⦁ Spiders, especially black widows, will spin their webs near the ground and in protected areas.
⦁ They can be found in boxes, under eaves, and in other undisturbed areas.
⦁ The brown recluse spiders can be found indoors in storage areas, clothing, shoes, and dark places.
⦁ Spiders will not bite humans unless they feel threatened or like they've been intruded on.
Problems with spider infestations in Albuquerque and Santa Fe can be hard to solve by an inexperience homeowner, due to their tendency to build webs in inaccessible dark places. Critter Control of New Mexico, however, will be able to completely get rid of your spider problem with solutions that are pet and family friendly.
Call 505.545.8883 in Albuquerque or 505.545.8891 in Santa Fe.
