If you're looking for a spooky but not too scary TV fix in time for Halloween, then I highly recommend Agatha All Along. It starts off slow but gets really good down the road.
The Horror Podcast has a collection of old radio horror plays from the 40s onwards, with such spooky titles as "The Middle Toe Of The Right Foot" and "Where The Dead Sleep By The Creaking Door"!

Canadian fleet management company Geotab conducted a survey of circa 5,00 EVs and found that their batteries showed a degradation of between 1% and 1.8% per year. At those rates, the batteries can outlast the usable lifetime of the vehicle.

This week I attended a fantastic talk at the Liverpool Irish Centre about Frongoch, the internment camp in North Wales where 1,800 revolutionaries from the 1916 rising were held for 7 months, including Michael Collins. It became known as the University of Revolution because the prisoners took classes while interned, but also made plans while all together for the war of independence that followed after their release. There is now a commemorative plaque at Frongoch, organised by the late Tony Birtill of Conradh na Gaeilge Learpholl, and local man Alwyn Jones who owns some of the land that once housed the camp has taken it upon himself to build a small museum with exhibitions about Frongoch use of a camp to imprison the Irish 1916 revolutionaries.
