this was received in an email. i'm no medic and don't know the true validity but is food for thought before you swig from your next can of beer or soda. the victim went fishing, prior to the trip she loaded the boat fridge with some cans of cola, became very ill on the 1st day died days later, The autopsy concluded she died of Leptospirosis. This was traced to the can of cola she drank from without using a glass. Tests showed that the can was infected by dried rat urine and hence the disease Leptospirosis.

I removed the control panet and the alarm went off. The control panel asking for enginners reset required and I do not have the code. The system was left behind by the previous owner and no codes given. No contract on the system and I desparately need the engineers code or how to reset the system to the factory default. I am an electrician and can work on elecerical equipment. I will apreciate any one who can help me with this proble. Many thanks. Kamal

Hello to all the new boys. whats going on?

Last friday, some muppet drives into the back of my van. Off sick on doctors orders for a week with whiplash injuries. Back to work today only to be pulled into the office at 4.50pm to be told that my employment was terminated as there wasn't enough work. Anyone know of any jobs going in Northern Ireland for an install/service engineer?

Just spotted this link on Rentokils website. Looks like they got rid of European and North America Initial Electronic Security but have now purchased a company in singapore From this www.ies.uk.com to this www.AdemcoSecurity.com thought they wanted rid of Security division?

Hi folks, There have been many comments about the link between alarm systems and insurance policies/premiums. I've just received my home (contents) insurance renewal from Direct Line and it says: "If you have a professionally installed and maintained alarm.....7.5% discount (bells only)... 12.5% (police response)....telephone for more details." They also offer "discounts of up to 40%" on an alarm installation - again phone for details, anyone know who they use? There are no specific conditions relating to the use of the alarm, but there is the standard all-encompassing "take all reasonable steps to prevent any loss....".

France 0 - 1 Scotland unbelievable!
