You believe Canada has a free and competitive grocery market? Interesting.
Wait until you hear about Canadian telecom, and banks.
Seems to be missing a few spokes.
My first thought was exercise.
Good luck to those trying heat lamps, saunas, showers, hot tubs, and pharmaceuticals.
100 is above body temperature. Be careful.
On pro tours they provide riders with cold drinks and even ice socks to stick down the back of their jerseys. They have ice vests to wear during warm-up, but don’t carry them during the race.
Realistically, ice water is your best bet. For very long rides in hot weather I carry 4XL bottles. I use insulated bottles. I fill 2 with ice cubes, water and sports drink powder. The other 2 I prepare the same, but the night before, and freeze them solid. A couple of hours into the ride the sports drink melts first, and the pure-water ice cubes second. I frequently have some ice left over after 4 hours.
Carbon comes in many forms. Some have considerable potential energy stored in bonds, while others at the bottom of the potential energy scale.
Chemically speaking, “reduced” carbon has high energy bonds. Carbon bonded to hydrogen or other carbon is very reduced. Coal, oil, graphite and diamonds are examples of chemicals with very reduced carbon, and a lot of potential energy which can be released by combustion.
At the other end of the scale is “oxidized” carbon such as carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide, where carbon is bonded to oxygen. These molecules are stable because there is no potential energy left in the molecular bonds.
Sugars are the compounds made when plants convert oxidized carbon (CO2) to reduced carbon, using the energy from light. Sugars have carbon-hydrogen bonds and carbon-carbon bonds, but also retain some carbon-oxygen bonds, and are intermediate in potential energy. However, the potential energy in sugars can be converted and concentrated into fats and oils.
True.
With mountain bikes, the distance is very dependent on terrain. I have local trails where it takes 2h to go 10-12km. I have another favourite area where I can travel 20-25km in the same time. On a gravel bike ride I’ll go 50km, and on road I can go 60km. All of these rides give me roughly the same feeling of exhaustion, although the hilly technical local mountain ride is more of an upper body workout.
What industry? Big green? Lol.
The writing was on the wall in 2006. Some are just slow learners.
We are not ready to turn away from natural gas,
We are literally turning away from natural gas.
Energy decisions of responsible governments should not favour fossil fuel use. The consumer should at least have the choice to do the right thing, and spend their money elsewhere.
Getting existing users to subsidize new natural gas installations perpetuates a habit we are trying to quit. It’s like smokers encouraging others to smoke. Making gas installations free, so more people will get hooked, is bad policy.
Rust creeps.
If you don’t passivate 100.00% of the chain’s surface with wax, rust will start in the places that didn’t get waxed, and creep out into the daylight.
The only reliable way to 100.00% passivate the steel chain’s surface is to immerse the chain in hot, pure wax, with extensive agitation.
I have tried liquid wax products. I only had success when the chain was unbelievably clean, and the liquid wax was applied in many layers.
The polls are worse than useless.
Rather than educate, today’s media reports on polls of the uneducated. They give credibility to uninformed opinion.
Around 2008 the CAFE standard was changed. Previously, the corporate average fuel economy was a fixed value. Now, vehicle weight allows for worse fuel economy. This change has practically forced auto makers to make bigger gas guzzlers in the name of fuel economy. It’s nuts, and it needs to be corrected.
If the courts weren’t slammed with unwinable or unnecessary cases, the real threats to society could be processed, and wouldn’t get off on technicalities like their right to due process.
The thesis here is that less is more. Less mandatory toughness means more due process for dangerous criminals, and more convictions of dangerous criminals.
There are no bicycle rules.
It’s a “slow moving vehicle”. This includes bicycles, farm tractors, skateboards, mobility scooters, etc. The only rules that are different between a slow moving vehicle and a car are that slow moving vehicles do not require a drivers licence, plate or insurance. The traffic rules are the same, except kids under 16 need to wear a helmet.
32km/hr is the legal threshold for a powered slow moving vehicle, and it appears this one was seen going 35, so there might be a technical foul here. Still, much less of a problem than jacked pickups rolling coal, and no one ever bothers them.
Very niche bike. You need to know that your cycling style will be very fast, in an uncomfortable position, for short distances.
Get a regular bike. Something with drop bars that you can ride all day. Or a mountain bike.
In practice, the law always supports the driver.
If you want to get away with murder, do it with a car.
But then, Burlington adjusted the rule to say “no cycling on sidewalks downtown”, but it is not clear exactly where this applies.
Burlington not making sidewalk cycling illegal is just the flip-side of not wanting to spend the money/time/effort to make road cycling safe.
Couldn’t possibly be Big Greedy Oil. They’ve got our backs. It’s the government that’s destroying the planet. /s
I can vouch for Hard-Fi’s “Stars of CCTV” I’ll be spinning Killer Sounds shortly. Thanks for the tip.
