Many of the largest corporations on the planet are making grand claims that they will become carbon neutral in the coming years. For example, Amazon has committed to reaching net-zero emissions by 2040, and other companies have followed suit. Microsoft has gone one step further and pledged it will be carbon negative by 2030, so it plans to begin removing carbon from the atmosphere by this date. In fact, the tech giant even plans to remove all of its historical emissions by 2050. These pledges are good news for the environment as it becomes increasingly clear that the current business climate and practices are largely destructive in nature. Such commitments are becoming common among large, multinational corporations. But where do smaller entities fit into...
All Blacks coach Ian Foster has called on his team to deliver a ‘Grand Slam’ with the first unbeaten run of The Rugby Championship since they achieved the feat in 2017. New Zealand’s come from behind 19-17 defeat of the Springboks in their historic 100th Test on Saturday in Townsville was their fifth from five games, with the second match against South Africa to be played on Saturday at the Gold Coast. “Quite frankly, you go up to the Six Nations and if they win five games they celebrate it as a Grand Slam, and we’ve got that chance now in The Rugby Championship to have a grand slam opportunity next week,” said Foster after the tight battle. “For this group to actually put themselves in that position is massive credit to Ardie Savea and the men for the...

Governments across Latin America are racing against time, making every effort to inoculate their populations against COVID-19. However, rising case numbers driven by new variants of the virus and short supply of vaccines are threatening the capacity of health care systems once again, forcing countries to take severe measures that could jeopardize the economic recovery.

By: Sean Crose In an era where a big mouth has become almost more important than boxing skills (it's sad, but true), it's nice to see men like Anthony Joshua and Oleksandr Usyk meet in the ring. Neither man is what you'd call ordinary. Usyk is a character and Joshua isn't at all afraid to get in front of the public eye. Yet both men, who are going to fight Saturday in England for the WBA, IBF, and WBO heavyweight titles, are acting like adults in the leadup to their highly anticipated match. They've spoken of and to each other respectfully, and have more or less gone about their fight week activities as professionals. As Michael Corleone might say, "it's only business."

Unlike trim tabs, interceptors deploy vertically and can provide stabilization. (Courtesy Humphree/)Interceptors are not trim tabs. Yes, they are planes or foils installed on the transom of a boat that, when deployed, act to affect the trim of the boat in the fore and aft, and port and starboard orientations. But they differ in several significant ways. With some time running interceptor-equipped boats, coupled with technical expertise from recent interviews with Sean Berrie of Humphree America, maker of Humphree Interceptors (humphree.com), and Jamie Simmons of Imtra, maker of Zipwake interceptors (zipwake.com), I’ve compiled the following tips. If your boat is equipped with interceptors, try them out. If you’re thinking of buying a boat equipped with interceptors...
