1:00- Chris Klimek, Director and Founder of Stop100.ca Drivers Association
A drivers’ advocacy group is accusing the province of setting speed limits too low on purpose-following a significant jump in the number of speeding convictions. More than three-quarters of a million Ontario drivers are convicted of speeding each year. The Globe and Mail reports in the 12 years ending in 2010, the number of speeding convictions increased by 32%- twice the population growth. Stop100.ca says speed limits in Ontario are a cash grab. The group claims the natural speed limit around the planet is 130 km/h, not the posted 100 kilometres.
1:30- Would you use drinkable sunscreen?
Could the summer’s hottest cocktail be … sunblock? One company claims to have developed a drinkable sunscreen that provides protection comparable to an SPF 30 lotion. Osmosis Skincare’s UV Neutralizer Harmonized Water uses purified water “imprinted with unique vibrational waves which isolate out the precise frequencies needed to protect you from UV rays,” according to a press release. The product, available in Tan Enhancing and No Tan Enhancing, comes in 3.38-ounce bottles that retail for $30. The 2-mL servings (usually imbibed with 2 ounces of water) provide about three hours of coverage, according to Osmosis.
