How long before they’re armed?
In WWI pilots didn’t carry any arms. They were “observers” photographing troop movements.
Until one day a pilot thought- why let this enemy go back with his photos.
He brought a gun with him and shot down enemy observers.
The rest is history.
When a store’s security team spots shoplifters leaving the scene, they can activate the drone, which is docked on the roof. Equipped with video and thermal cameras, the drone can track thieves escaping on foot or in a vehicle and report to police. gizmodo.com/flock-safety...
Retail Stores May Soon Use Drones to Chase Thieves
Flock Safety's high-tech drones designed for cops are now being offered to private security firms.

Chris Murphy: "There will be pretty substantial damage to a Dem brand that has been rehabilitated if on the heels of an election in which the people told us to keep fighting, we immediately stop... if we surrender without having gotten anything, I worry it'll be hard to get them back up off the mat"

Was just talking about him yesterday. Edmonton should have kept him on for this year.

We talk a lot about low information voters who vote against their own best interests.
How about high information CEO’s? Where do they stand today?
This will impact the travel industry as a whole- restaurant, hotel, car rental, and airlines.

We need a new set of bingo cards this year to track the NHL scoring leaders. And a new set for the eastern conference standings.

Noteworthy- there aren’t enough cameras to capture the magic when demidov touches the puck- or caulfield for that matter.

Do penalties expire at the end of OT?

if it goes to a shootout will Demidov be an eligible player?

Let’s hope so.

It’s a sad state of affairs if we’re happy jay jones won…..
I remember when an organization I was running was benchmarked- the lead person came up to me afterward. And said this
“You’re pretty good, you want to think though do you want to be measured against the best or the worst in this field?”

This team- just amazing -stunning comeback so far.
Jack wrote about this earlier in the week - we used watch and know they could stop the puck- not quite so confident we could score . Now, we know they can score , and so do the players.
