Trent Lange It's crucial that voters know who is behind political ads. AB 990 is a good start so people at least know whether they're paid for by the candidate or a SuperPAC -- and thanks to all you signers, it's now law!

shared from

Catalin Alexandru Duru has been working on top-secret, next-generation version of fan-driven board

CBC News Posted: Oct 14, 2015 2:47 PM ET Last Updated: Oct 15, 2015 1:11 PM ET

This past May, Montreal inventor Catalin Alexandru Duru broke the world record for the longest hoverboard flight.

Duru flew up to five metres above a lake for a distance of 275.9 metres aboard his homemade, propeller-powered hoverboard in a trip that lasted more than 1½ minutes.

Now, the 31-year-old Duru and his company, Omni Hoverboards, are working on a secret, next-generation version of the device. Watch as he takes CBC's Reg Sherren into the workshop where he is building it, and then to a Quebec lake where he puts the new prototype to the test for the first time.

A sharp earthquake in central Oklahoma last weekend has raised fresh concern about the security of a vast crude oil storage complex, close to the quake’s center, that sits at the crossroads of the nation’s oil pipeline network.

The magnitude 4.5 quake struck Saturday afternoon about three miles northwest of Cushing, roughly midway between Oklahoma City and Tulsa. The town of about 8,000 people is home to the so-called Cushing Hub, a sprawling tank farm that is among the largest oil storage facilities in the world.

THE END OF OILTHE OIL MAJOR?

Oct 15th, 2015

Shell had to write-down some of its shale assets in the U.S., after spending $24 billion on a bet that failed to pay off, with company executives regretting ever having made the investment.

By James Stafford: Wed, 14 October 2015

A new report finds that the largest oil companies are set to cut spending on exploration by at least half, potentially leading to very few new oil discoveries in the years ahead.

The report from investment bank Tudor, Pickering, Hold & Co., and reported by Fuel Fix, estimates that exploration budgets among the oil majors will drop to $25 billion in 2016, down from $50 billion from just a few years ago. Obviously, low oil prices are taking their toll, forcing deep spending cuts in a desperate attempt to shore up profitability. But the cuts have large implications for the energy sector, increasing the chances that some large oil fields remain undeveloped for years.

Huckabee Suggests Poor People Should Be Sold Into Slavery For Stealing

In case you thought Mike Huckabee couldn't get any more offensive, today he suggested that to improve the U.S. criminal justice system, we should sell people into slavery for stealing.

Shell to open 400 hydrogen fuelling stations in Germany by 2023

by Veselin Valchev: Wednesday, 14 Oct 2015

Royal Dutch Shell Plc (LON:RDSA) announced yesterday that it has signed a declaration of intent with its H2 Mobility Germany joint venture partners and Germany’s federal transport minister over plans to roll out 400 hydrogen fuel stations by 2023.

The pumps, three of which the venture has already opened and operates, refuel hydrogen fuel cell electric cars – environmentally neutral vehicles, which, however, have struggled to make headway into consumer markets.

“Hydrogen-fuelled electric vehicles could play a key part in a low-carbon, low-emission, future,” said Oliver Bishop, General Manager of Hydrogen at Shell. “H2 Mobility Germany shows what we can achieve through close collaboration between governments and business. The next step is for consumers to embrace this opportunity and consider buying hydrogen vehicles as they become available.”
