There is something wonderful about waking up so early in the morning that the sun has not yet risen. How privileged I feel to sit on the comfy leather chair by the window, coffee in hand and watch the glow to the east run purple, then scarlet, crimson and then….. BAM. The sun is up.It [...]

November 16th, 2007. http://lailayuile.wordpress.com/2007/11/16/taser-use-worldwide-controversial-at-best/
That is the day I blogged about my feelings regarding the RCMP’s response to Robert Dziekanski’s tasering death at Vancouver airport. Here we are, a year and a half after this post and we are only now getting some understanding into what happened that day. How interesting to note the events since 2007 [...]

It was very late before sleep finally engulfed me, the heightened adrenalin from the evenings events keeping me unnaturally awake. This is the third incident of violence for me in the area, since Friday [...]

Top of the morning to you, and look at that rain out there…… : ( You will not find me wearing any of those suddenly fashionable rubber boots that come in the most bizarre designs and colours. No, I’ve invested in a pair of sexy black boots that are completely impervious to water – and I [...]

A local RCMP officer will make his first appearance in Surrey Provincial Court on January 15th, where it is expected formal charges will be laid in relation to his involvement in a collision dating back to October 2008 where a young man dies at the scene – and the officer in question was allegedly impaired.
Corporal Benjamin [...]

Or so I hear, anyways.
As I sat wrapped in a blanket while the heat from my Kenyan coffee worked its magic in my veins, my eyes widened in disbelief over the Weather Channels forecast for the week ahead….- 15c ? -17c? Hello!! I double checked online to ensure that some screw-up had not been made, but [...]

It’s Wednesday, hump day, and it sounds like snow is coming our way soon! 14 shopping days left-for those of you who are keeping track. Myself, I haven’t purchased anything yet. Nada. Nothing. This coming Friday will be my ‘do-everything-in-one-day’, day. Get in and get out, no injuries or prisoners. Then, while everyone else is running around like [...]

Forgive me, but I’m opening the door to ‘taser talk’ again. ( The last time I did this it initiated an ongoing debate in the comments section that lasted for several months.) Last night I watched an excellent documentary on The National, regarding tasers. More specifically, the older x26 model manufactured prior to 2005, of which [...]

Wow, this Wednesday completely snuck up on me, because of the long weekend, and I nearly forgot all about Bits and Bites. So cool, though, because its only 2 days now until the next weekend, which I hear is going to be sunny and gorgeous.
First up, the comments and emails keep rolling in about Dave Gerry and Simi [...]

Ohmygod… what a morning.
If I didn’t think I was a little anal about my daily am routine before, today confirmed it. I cannot function without technology. After a power outage thwarted all of yesterdays work, I woke up even earlier today to make up for it. However, after getting my coffee, breakfast etc ready, I sat down at [...]
