    Birds - Selecting the right bird and creating a comfortable living environment are crucial first steps in ensuring a happy and healthy life for your feathered companion. The process begins with understanding your own lifestyle and preferences, as this will help you choose a bird species that aligns with your needs. Birds vary widely in size, temperament, and care requirements. For example, small species like canaries and finches are low-maintenance and ideal for beginners, while parrots and cockatoos demand more attention and interaction due to their intelligence and social nature. Once you’ve chosen your bird, setting up an appropriate home is the next essential step. A well-chosen cage serves as both a sanctuary and a playground for your bird, so it’s important to select one that suits its size and activity level. Smaller birds require less space but still benefit from a cage that allows for free movement, while larger species need ample room to stretch their wings and explore. The spacing between the bars should be appropriate for your bird’s size to ensure safety and prevent escapes. 
    Parrots - Parrots are among the most captivating and intelligent birds, known for their vibrant plumage, social personalities, and remarkable ability to mimic sounds. These fascinating creatures have been companions to humans for centuries, offering not just companionship but also the joy of watching their unique behaviors and engaging in interactive activities. Whether you are a first-time parrot owner or have experience with pet birds, understanding the intricacies of parrot care and training is essential for ensuring a happy and healthy life for your feathered friend.

    Now a sprawling video game franchise, Resident Evil has kept us on the edge of our seats for decades with its tried-and-true brand of jump scares, zombie action, and biological horror. But even decades after its release, we can't stop revisiting the original's thrills, chills, and sometimes unintentional spills. 
     
      
     
    Pop culture writer and horror cinephile Philip J Reed takes dead aim at 1996's Resident Evil, the game that named and defined the genre we now call "survival horror." While examining Resident Evil's influences from the worlds of film, literature, and video games alike, Reed's love letter to horror examines how the game's groundbreaking design and its atmospheric fixed-cam cinematography work to thrill and terrify players—and why that terror may even be good for you. 
     
     
     
    Featuring a foreword from Troma Entertainment legend Lloyd Kaufman and new interviews with the game's voice actors and its live-action cast, the book serves as the master of unlocking the behind-the-scenes secrets of Resident Evil, and shows how even a game filled with the most laughable dialogue can still scare the pants off of you.

    When health care workers call a Code White, it’s an emergency response for a violent incident: a call for help. But it’s one that goes unanswered in hospitals, clinics, and long-term care homes across the country. Code White exposes a shocking epidemic of violence that’s hidden in plain sight, one in which workers are bruised, battered, assaulted, and demeaned, but carry on in silence, with little recourse or support.
    		 
    Researchers Margaret M. Keith and James T. Brophy lay bare the stories of over one hundred nurses and personal support workers, aides and porters, clerical workers and cleaners. The nightmarish experiences they relate are not one-off incidents, but symptoms of deep systemic flaws that have transformed health care into one of the most dangerous occupational sectors in Canada.
    		 
    The same questions echo in the wake of each and every brutal encounter: Is violence and trauma really just “part of the job”? Why is this going underreported and unchecked? What needs to be done, and how?
