  1. CBC has confirmed that O'Toole met with gun manufacturers and promised to revoke the ban on assault rifles and he has also committed to selling off the CBC if elected.
  2. Form Energy’s Iron-Air Battery Considered Potentially Disruptive for Power Industry Washington Post “Iron-air batteries: Huge green-energy breakthrough, or just a lot of hype?” https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2021/07/27/iron-air-batteries-huge-green-energy-breakthrough-or-just-lot-hype/ This Washington Post article is very cautious, noting that battery breakthrough announcements often do not pan out, but the author does bring up the point that iron is 2000 times more plentiful than lithium, and that replacing lithium with iron would make it much easier for the United States to be come self sufficient in storage batteries, since no rare-earth materials (few are currently produced in the US) are required. Oilprice.com “Iron-Air Batteries Could Be The Breakthrough Energy Markets Are Waiting For” https://oilprice.com/Energy/Energy-General/Iron-Air-Batteries-Could-Be-The-Breakthrough-Energy-Markets-Are-Waiting-For.html The authors of this article not that Form energy has raised $250 million, and the company has announced a deal to provide 150 hours energy storage to the Great River Energy cooperative in Minnesota US (lithium-ion energy storage systems are typically for 2-4 hours). They write: “a relatively inexpensive 100 hour plus utility-scale storage battery is as disruptive a technological force for the electric utility industry as anything we have ever seen.”
  3. Mike Lindell, pro-Trump conspiracy theorists fail to draw crowd at Kentucky rally Some of the biggest names pushing pro-Trump conspiracy theories were unable to draw much of a crowd at a "We the People Reunion" rally in Kentucky. "The event is hosting speakers such as the CEO of MyPillow, Mike Lindell, former national security advisor Michael Flynn and Pastor Greg Locke, who has in the past admitted to being at the Capitol during the January 6 Capitol riot," WFIE 14 News reported. The station reported on attendance at the event. "Promoters said they expected crowds of around 10,000 people. Fewer than 300 were at the event when 14 News arrived," the network reported.
  4. Roberts was the beneficiary of raw talent, having all of his parts glued securely together and a low center of gravity, which made him difficult to bring down. He was very, very good, but he could have been a legend in the CFL. He impressed me as someone who never thought he would survive long enough to plan for the future or condition himself for it.
  5. I am concerned that Nelson is becoming so psyched out that the stress is going to start making him distracted from ball security and cough up the ball under dire circumstances,
  6. The antivaxers promised as replay tomorrow, so we shall see. Don't know if it was posted here or otherwhere, but a certain John Rush has publicly offered to escort anyone feeling threatened in and out of the HSC. What a Rush!
  7. And no one picked him up until BC this year.
  8. Felix wasn't good enough before- what makes you think he's better now? Lirim is our best hope.
  9. Riderfans were saying that their favourite player was Liegghio.
  10. What makes you think they haven't already?
  11. We deserved to lose against Toronto. The whole team stunk the joint out.
  12. However, watching would-be tacklers bouncing off Moon was awesome.
  13. Had a quick boo at the Riderfans website. Its safe to say that the honeymoon with Craig Dickenson and Fajardo is over and they are not too pleased with anyone on the team either. A few are openly admitting that the Bombers are a much better team. The consensus is that Dickenson has lost control of the team and that the talent on the team is very poor. And, oh yes, the referees screwed them and Suitor was cheering for the Bombers.
  14. Riders are now 4 TDs in 8 games against the Blue.
  15. Great to see the 30,000 + fans rewarded for their enthusiasm with a beat-down of the Riders.
  16. No pretend about it- we want Woli to do exactly that
  17. Hitting Harker would have been a Rider thing to do.
  18. Time to horizontalize Harker again OMG!!! Nelson actually got positive yardage!! Surely Riders are doomed now.
  19. OOOH! We need one more TD to rub their noses in it.
  20. Nice to see Wolitarski being used effectively.
  21. Looks like we got this one in the bag, but crushing the Riders would be very nice.
  22. Good! a 15 yard penalty on Riders
  23. Shaffer-Baker a pretty good receiver. And Harker gets thumped real good.
