discussed: (NYSE:RCI) (OTC:POWW)
Rogers
Communications Inc. (NYSE:RCI), along with
Sportsnet and the University of Waterloo, has announced the launch of the Sportsnet Hockey Hack: Powered by Rogers 5G.
According to the press release, this “virtual hackathon offers a unique
opportunity for students to design applications to enhance the fan experience
for Sportsnet viewers, using Rogers’s 5G technology and data from the NHL’s
Puck and Player Tracking system during the 2020 Stanley Cup Playoffs.” Bart
Yabsley, President, Sportsnet, commented:
“The next generation of sports fans will engage with
and experience our broadcasts in ways we can’t even imagine today. As Sportsnet
continues to be a leader in sports technology innovation, we are excited to
work with some of Canada’s top young minds at the University of Waterloo to
discover how Rogers 5G technology can change the way millions of NHL fans watch
and engage with the sport.”
Ammunition and
munition components manufacturer AMMO, Inc. (OTC:POWW) has reported its fiscal second
quarter financial results. Highlights include a total revenue increase from the
first quarter of 307 percent, up to $12 million from $2.9 million. The
company’s CEO, Fred Wagenhals, said:
“The demand momentum experienced at the end of fiscal
year 2020 has certainly continued to accelerate for fiscal 2021. We continue to
make further progress with the manufacturing capabilities, infrastructure and
capacity improvements deployed in fiscal year 2020 and 2021. As a result, we
achieved our first ever quarter of adjusted EBITDA profitability during the
second quarter.”

Year’s Tokyo Olympics Attendees Will Be Encouraged to Be Vaccinated, and
Djokovic Wins Sixth ATP Tour No. 1 Trophy
The Associated
Press
reports that attendees of the Tokyo Olympics – which has been postponed to open
July 23 of next year – will be “encouraged to be vaccinated to protect the
Japanese public.” This was announced by IOC President Thomas Bach, after he met
with Japanese Prime Minister Yoshihide Suga during a campaign across Tokyo.
“In order to protect the Japanese people and out of
respect for the Japanese people, the IOC will undertake great effort so that as
many (people) as possible — Olympic participants and visitors will arrive here
(with a) vaccine, if by then a vaccine is available.”
According to the
report, Japan has, until recently, had its borders closed, “and has almost 100%
mask-wearing by the public.”
Novak Djokovic
received his sixth ATP Tour No. 1 trophy on Sunday at the Nitto ATP Finals,
according to the ATP
Tour
website. This ties Djokovic with his “childhood hero” Pete Sampras who took the
honour six straight years from 1993 to 1998. Djokovic told ATPTour:
“I’m very happy. It’s been a strange year for all of us
with a six months’ gap for all of us. We restarted the season in August, and I
continued where I left off before lockdown and had a terrific run. I’m very
pleased with the way things went.
I have to say a huge thank you to my team for supporting
me in the hard time and trusting me. This is the crown for all achievements in
the year and it’s unreal that I’ve managed to finish the year at No. 1 for a
sixth time.
Obviously I am super proud of it, but I have mixed
emotions because of what is going on in the world. I can’t be ignorant to that,
although I have achieved one of the biggest goals in sport. I feel for many
people in the world going through hardship and my heart goes out to them.”
