Cannot view this video? Visit: Aires CEO, Josh Bruni, commented: "For the first time, the conversation around health at UFC's International Fight Week included the invisible biological input that influences strength, stamina and recovery: our electromagnetic environment. Most people aren't aware that their electromagnetic environment — internal and external — is continually shaping their biology. They've also never seen scientific data showing how that environment can be proactively and precisely tuned to improve biological outcomes and performance. That's why we initiated and hosted these events. They're the latest example of Aires' commitment to educating people about how the invisible electromagnetic environment is a core pillar of health, just like other universally accepted biological factors such as water, sleep, movement, and nutrition. The importance of that message was reinforced by the enthusiastic participation of the world-class experts, specialists and peak performers that contributed and shared their knowledge. Our commitment is to continue making the invisible visible through events like these and through our marketing efforts so that more people, organizations and businesses learn how Aires can help transform the electromagnetic environments around us all to promote well-being." Event #1: Demo Day Symposium at UFC's Performance Institute The Demo Day Symposium was held at the UFC's Performance Institute (PI) during UFC's International Fight Week on Wednesday, June 25. The symposium's focus on the biological impacts of electromagnetic environments aligned with UFC PI's dedication to peak performance, recovery, and human potential. The event included a panel discussion with Aires CEO Josh Bruni, the PI's Vice President of Performance Dr. Duncan French, neuroscientist Dr. Dogris, and top athletes. Event #2: Built For Brilliance Roundtable on Environmental Wellness On Thursday, June 26, Aires hosted the Roundtable on Environmental Wellness in partnership with Biohack Yourself Media ( The event explored the influence of environment — including electromagnetic environments and electromagnetic fields (EMFs) — on sleep, stress, physical recovery and cognition.

Tyson Moran of Wingham, Ont. expected to be picked in MLB Draft
A Wingham team has a good shot at being chosen in the upcoming MLB draft. CTV London's Brent Lale reports. A teenager from small-town Midwestern Ontario is likely to hear his name called in the upcoming Major League Baseball (MLB) draft. Tyson Moran Tyson Moran of Wingham, Ont. is projected to be selected in the MLB Draft. (Brent Lale/CTV London) 'He just hasn't stop hitting,' said Chris Robinson, one of his coaches with the Great Lake Canadians (GLC). As the MLB draft approaches this week, the second baseman from Wingham, Ont. is ranked in some mock drafts as a mid-round pick. 'I haven't really been a highly touted prospect over the years until recently,' said Moran. 'I'm just trying to soak it all up and trying not to take it for granted.' The left-hand-hitting infielder has power, speed, and his game has elevated over the past year. Tyson Moran Second baseman Tyson Moran of Wingham, Ont. is a prospect in the upcoming MLB Draft. (Brent Lale/CTV London) His coaches praise his work ethic and describe him as 'determined.' 'It's a two-hour drive (from Wingham to Dorchester) and he's the first kid here, four days a week,' said Jamie Romak, a former MLB player who coaches Moran with GLC. 'He wants to work. He appreciates the opportunity he's been given and guys like that tend to succeed in this game. It started in March on a trip to Arizona playing professional competition that he just absolutely demolished and hasn't really stopped since then.' During that trip he hit two home runs against the Cleveland Guardians. Every time he's played over the past few months, scouts are keeping an eye on him. Tyson Moran Tyson Moran has a 'professional hit tool' according to his Great Lake Canadians coaches (Brent Lale/CTV London) 'It is really cool to kind of interact with some of the scouts, especially with me going out to Arizona,' said Moran. 'That kind of environment was really cool. I'm playing against a bunch of pro guys just realizing that could be me in the next couple of years, but I'm trying not to think about that too much.' His rise through the rankings started less than a year ago. 'He really kind of had a coming out, so to speak, last fall,' said Robinson. 'He was the Futures Game MVP there for the Toronto Blue Jays Showcase, which is a big deal from across the country. He's an easy to root for kid.' Tyson Moran Tyson Moran high-fives a teammate after scoring a run for the Great Lake Canadians. (Source: Brent Lale/CTV London) Moran has committed to North Dakota State but has dreams of playing professionally. With the draft now 20 rounds – a reduction in 2019 – only half as many prospects are selected from previous years. Moran should be one of them. 'That's kind of my goal right now,' he said. 'It'd be something I would never forget.'

Thousands paid $50 to secure a season ticket for a Halifax CFL team. Some wonder where the money went
Social Sharing When the proposed Atlantic Schooners CFL franchise announced a season-ticket drive in late 2018, Rob MacCormick spent $100 on a deposit for two seats. The Windsor Junction, N.S., sports fan wanted to support the team. He also hoped that if the franchise came to fruition, more concerts would come to the city because of the stadium the team needed to construct as part of the venture. MacCormick wasn't alone in placing a deposit. The Canadian Press reported in December 2018 that 6,000 people had done the same. At $50 a ticket, that's at least $300,000. CBC News spoke to 10 people who said they paid the deposit. Eight — including MacCormick — said they did not receive refunds. "When you go a pair at a time, it certainly does add up, and maybe somebody should be accountable to this," said MacCormick. As the COVID-19 pandemic arrived, the CFL venture disappeared from the public conversation. Two affiliated companies behind the idea — Schooner Sports and Entertainment and Maritime Football Limited — have had their registrations revoked in the Registry of Joint Stock Companies. to build a 24,000-seat, $110-million stadium in Shannon Park. The space would have been used for community sports and major concerts as well. In December 2019, Halifax council voted to give the proponents $20 million, but only if a list of conditions were met. "We're thrilled. We thank council for their due diligence and very spirited debate. We're very excited to move forward," said Schooner Sports and Entertainment partner Anthony LeBlanc. By April 2020, LeBlanc had taken an executive role with the NHL's Ottawa Senators. However, he remained a director with Maritime Football Limited, the Registry of Joint Stock Companies information shows. MacCormick said he used to get the odd email from Schooner Sports and Entertainment about things like town hall events. He even received a holiday email encouraging him to buy tickets for loved ones. But the emails eventually dried up. "Over time, I felt that the deposit was gone and it was $100, not the end of the world, but you know, it just felt like things weren't going to happen," said MacCormick. The CFL maintains an Atlantic Schooners website. While updates on the state of the franchise are several years old, the site still pulls in fresh stories from the league's website. Jason Mullis, a diehard CFL fan who lives in Gatineau, Que., also put down a deposit for season tickets. He bought tickets because he wanted to see an East Coast franchise that would create a coast-to-coast league and establish a much-sought 10th team. Mullis, who has driven across the country to attend games at all CFL stadiums, has a Facebook page called the Cflhobo that he uses to share his passion for the league. He planned to purchase season tickets for a Halifax franchise, but would have donated most of them given geographic constraints. Mullis said he's not concerned about the refund money, but said he saw some online chatter from unhappy fans. "People were upset. 'Oh, I haven't heard nothing. Where's our money?'" he said."But, I don't worry about it. If you really want it back, you can complain enough, you'll get your money back." CBC contacted officials with Schooner Sports and Entertainment. LeBlanc agreed to an interview, but later sent along a statement instead. Proponents say they will launch a refund portal In it, he said the proponents are setting up a portal to honour new refund requests. He said information on the portal will be released shortly. LeBlanc said that when Schooner Sports and Entertainment shut down in 2023, the company had no assets or liabilities, and had been offering refunds to season ticket holders for five years. "These deposits were and continued to be refundable, with a significant number of deposit holders seeking refunds," he said in the email. "All of the requests that were submitted through proper channels have been honored." LeBlanc said the effort to bring a CFL franchise to Halifax involved "significant and material financial obligations, all of which were honored." He said Schooner Sports and Entertainment partnered with organizations that included architectural, public relations, government relations and marketing firms. Schooner Sports and Entertainment also partnered with the CFL on a 2019 game that was held in Moncton, N.B., that led to "significant and material financial losses," said LeBlanc. The organization decided to spike the CFL franchise, in part, because of a lack of appetite to help fund the project. "With the onset of the pandemic, all public sector entities made the very prudent decision to pause, and eventually withdrew agreements and suspended ongoing discussions regarding the project," said LeBlanc.
