Kindersley RCMP Offer Safety Tips to Stay Safe on Halloween

With Halloween approaching this upcoming Monday the Kindersley RCMP want to make sure that everyone has a safe Halloween and are offering these trick-or-treat tips: Make sure your costume is spooky AND safe: Wear well-fitting costumes and shoes to avoid blocked vision and falls.

Here’s a bright idea: Wear reflective tape on your costume or carry a flashlight. This way you’re visible to drivers!

Use the buddy system: Travel in groups of four or more. Young children should always be accompanied by an adult.

Check your loot: Have an adult sort and check candy for signs of tampering, allergies and expiration dates.

Drivers keep an eye out for trick-ortreaters that may be running on the roads.

Between October 17th to October 23rd, 2022, Kindersley RCMP responded to 51 calls for service*. These calls included, but were not limited to, 1 impaired driving charge traffic, 3 mental health related calls, and 6 suspicious person/vehicle complaints.

If you need to report any suspicious activity in your community, please contact the Kindersley RCMP detachment by calling 306-463-4642 or their local police service. Information can also be provided anonymously through Saskatchewan Crime Stoppers by calling 1800-222-TIPS (8477) or submitting a tip online at www. saskcrimestoppers.com.

Online Crime Reporting can be accessed at: https://ocre-sielc.rcmp-grc.gc. ca/saskatchewan. *For more information on the calls to service please contact the Kindersley RCMP detachment.

Whatever happened to Sandra Bernhard? I remember her funny appearances on the “Late Night with David Letterman,” and she was in a few movies, but I haven’t seen her in decades. Is she still in showbiz? — H.U. The now 67-year-old actress Sandra Bernhard started out in standup comedy, before landing a scenestealing role of a stalker in the Martin Scorsese film “The King of Comedy,” opposite Robert DeNiro. She followed that with more than 20 appearances on “Late Night with David Letterman” and also landed a recurring role on the hit sitcom “Roseanne” for several seasons.

In recent years, she’s had regular roles on sitcoms like “2 Broke Girls” and “Brooklyn Nine-Nine,” as well as two Ryan-Murphy-produced series “Pose” and “American Horror Story.” Her biggest missed opportunity, though, was turning down the role of Miranda on “Sex and the City” due to “low pay” and a “terrible” script at the time. Cynthia Nixon went on to become a household name after being cast in the role, but Bernhard told Howard Stern in an interview that she doesn’t regret her decision.

Fortunately, she’s part of the Murphy universe and has a role in the new season of “American Horror Story: NYC” on the FX channel. She also recently wrapped filming for the upcoming comedy film “Out of Order!” starring Brooke Shields and Brandon Routh. *** When are the Hallmark Christmas movies starting?

With Christmas decorations in stores already, do the movies start in October, too? — Y.J. As a matter of fact, yes, Hallmark’s “Countdown to Christmas” schedule starts with the movie “Noel Next Door” on Friday, Oct. 21 at 8 p.m ET, starring Natalie Hall and Corey Sevier. On Oct. 30, Kim Matula and Ian Harding star in “Ghosts of Christmas Always” at 8 p.m. ET on the Hallmark Channel. The schedule really picks up in November and, of course, throughout December, with holiday films featuring favorites like Alison Sweeney, Aimee Teegarden, Jack Wagner and more.

Holiday-themed TV movies aren’t exclusive to the Hallmark franchise.

Christmas movies. Mario Lopez, Maria Menounos, Patti LaBelle and Jana Kramer are part of the Lifetime lineup. Even streaming giant Netflix has gotten into the game, with original movies like “Falling for Christmas,” which marks Lindsay Lohan’s big comeback, premiering Nov. 10. *** Are the Golden Globe Awards ever coming back to television? The Emmy Awards now resemble them, with celebrities sitting at tables nearby each other, but I wish the Emmys would go back to rows of seating like the Oscars.

— G.H. Yes, the Golden Globe Awards will return with a televised ceremony on NBC Jan. 10, 2023, preceded by the nominations being announced on Dec. 12. The network skipped broadcasting it last year, after record-low ratings in 2021 and the discovery that there were no African Americans among its 87member voting organization, the Hollywood Foreign Press Association. With a more-diversified panel and a post-pandemic increase in movie ticket sales, it’s hoped that the Golden Globes can return to being a celebrated, fun event.

Hills Wind Project near Herbert.

Earlier this month, SaskPower announced plans for development of a further 400 megawatts of wind generation and 300 megawatts of solar generation in south-central Saskatchewan by 2026.

This initiative is part of SaskPower’s larger strategy of adding 3,000 megawatts of wind and solar power to our supply mix and achieving 50 per cent renewable generation by 2035.

SaskPower has also agreed to purchase electricity from two solar projects involving First Nations.

The George Gordon First Nation and Star Blanket Cree Nation are partners in a 10-megawatt solar facility now operating near Weyburn.

The Cowessess First Nation owns the majority stake in a 10-megawatt solar facility south of Regina, which is expected to begin operations this fall.

SaskPower also continues to expand natural gas power generating capacity.

The Great Plains Power Station, a 360-megawatt facility under construction near Moose Jaw, is more than half complete and will begin generating electricity next year.

More than $110 million in local work was awarded during the construction of the power station, including $21 million to Indigenous companies.

When Great Plains fires up, SaskPower will have 11 natural gas generating facilities.

The expansion of cleaner burning natural gas power generation has helped SaskPower meet its environmental goals.

The company is on track to reduce its greenhouse gas emissions by at least 50 per cent from 2005 levels by 2030.

SaskPower is continuing to plan for the potential development and deployment of small modular nuclear reactors.

Last month, the company identified the Estevan and Elbow areas as potential sites for a small modular reactor.

Significant public consultation and engagement will take place before a final decision is made on whether to construct a small modular reactor by 2029.

Oil and gas As for oil and gas, there were no direct initiatives mentioned. Beyond the Saskatchewan First Act and power production initiatives, all the throne speech had to say specifically about oil and gas was this: “Our province’s oil and gas sector has come alive as production of some of the most sustainable energy in the world moves closer to

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Although you love being the focus of everyone’s attention, it’s a good idea to take a few steps back right now to just watch the action. What you see can help with an upcoming decision.

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) “Caution” continues to be your watchword this week, as a former colleague tries to reconnect old links. There are still some dark places that need to be illuminated.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Making a good first impression is important. Revealing your often hidden sense of humor can help you get through some of the more awkward situations.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Are you taking that Cancer Crab image too seriously? Lighten up. Instead of complaining about your problems, start resolving them. A friend would beThe happy to help.

Weekly Bean LEO (July 23 to August 22) A widening distance between you and that special person needs to be handled with honesty and sensitivity. Don’t let jealousy create an even greater gap between you two.

VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) Congratulations. Your handling of a delicate family matter rates kudos.

But, no resting on your laurels just yet. You still have to resolve that on-the-job problem.

“The Curse of Bridge Hollow” (TV-14) — Howard (Marlon Wayans) and Emily (Kelly Rowland) decide to move their family from Brooklyn to the Halloween-obsessed suburban town of Bridge Hollow, much to their teenage daughter Sydney’s reluctance. Once in Bridge Hollow, Sydney (Priah Ferguson ) learns about the town tale of Stingy Jack, who had died in the very house her family just moved into. While sleuthing around the house, Sydney gets tricked into lighting Stingy Jack’s lantern, unknowingly unleashing a spirit that makes all the Halloween decorations around town come to life. It’s up to Sydney, her family and the eccentric folks of Bridge Hollow to break the curse and save the town from getting taken over. Out now. (Netflix)

William Shakespeare’s “Romeo and Juliet,” but does anyone recall the name Rosaline, the first girl who Romeo started raving about? If you’ve ever wondered what happened to her, Rosaline finally gets to tell her side of the story in this new romantic comedy out now. After accidentally catching Romeo giving his signature monologue to Juliet, Rosaline is willing to go to any lengths to break up the star-crossed lovers and win Romeo back. Kaitlyn Dever (“Booksmart”) and Isabela Merced (“Dora and the Lost City of Gold”) star in this fun spin on a classic play. (Hulu)

Kaitlyn Dever and Kyle Allen star as Rosaline and Romeo in “Rosaline.”

“Torn Hearts” (NR) — Country music duo Leigh (Alexxis Lemire) and Jordan (Abby Quinn) have been trying to break into the music industry but have grown frustrated playing for small crowds in Nashville. So, when Jordan meets a guy who once worked with one of their idols, Harper Dutch from the The Duchess Sisters, Jordan finesses Harper’s address out of him, and the aspiring musicians decide to pay her a visit. Harper (Katey Sagal), the only living Duchess Sister, oddly welcomes the two ecstatic girls in and even agrees to make a song with them. With Leigh and Jordan blinded by excitement, they don’t realize that Harper may have hidden motives of her own. From Blumhouse Productions, out on Oct. 20. (Prime Video)

“Raymond and Ray” — AppleTV+’s latest releases have been very introspective, character-driven films and series that highlight more human struggles, and “Raymond and Ray” releasing Oct. 21 is a film that fits perfectly into that same category. Produced by Alfonso Cuaron (“Roma”), Ewan McGregor and Ethan Hawke play two estranged half-brothers who reunite after their father’s passing, his last wish being that the two brothers dig his grave. Neither brother had a good relationship with their father, but they work together to oblige his wishes. In turn, these two brothers have each other to walk down the rocky path of mourning a parent and hope that, eventually, it will all lead to forgiveness. (AppleTV+)
