It was goals-a-plenty in this West Lancashire League Premier Match with Lostock taking a 24th minute lead but going in at half time level after a late goal. Lostock regained the lead early in the second with Oxley getting his brace but 2 goals from Whitehaven took them in front. Matty Bulcock fired in an equalizer from distance to level once again. LSG finished the game with 9 players after late dismissals for Wilkinson and Riding.

From the vantage offered by the walkway suspended over the ovum shaped structures, one can observe the “old cities” of Newtown and Bushwick in the manner of Odin, sitting upon the Hlidsjalf. Huginn and Muninn are absent, of course, their wise council and far seeing observations sorely missed.

The steel trusses of the catwalks were delivered on site, hoisted into place by three tower cranes,and pinned in place.Above The stainless steel claddingoffers exceptional corrosion resistance,an important quality in a facility thatprocesses 1.8 million gallons of sludge per day.
Though early ESD facilities were constructed of poured-in-place concrete, the difficulty and cost of forming the complex shapes necessary for such construction finalized the DEP’s decision to shift the primary material to steel throughout. At the Newtown Creek facility, Polshek crowned and linked the ESDs with steel and glass aerial walkways and turrets that glow like lanterns at night. Steel’s speed of construction, flexibility, and lighter load weight were pivotal factors in the construction phase, as the congested conditions of the 24-hour site required a constant coordination of logistics between architects, engineers, contractors, and facility technicians. With steel, sections of the aerial walkways could be pre-fabricated and assembled on location with minimalscaffolding and workmanship, allowing connections to be welded and bolted in an efficient and convenient way.
The aerial walkways and turrets are made up of a variety of steel members, including structural tubes of ASTM A500 Grade B steel, structural pipe of ASTM A53 Grade B steel, and other shapes and plates of ASTM A36 U.O.N.steel. The turrets are framed with W10×15, W10×33, and W24×68 wide flange members, while the walkways spanning the distance between them are composed of steel trusses made up of W8×15 diagonal braces, W10×22 crossbeams, and W24×104 main beams. Each truss weighs approximately 30 tons.Originally intended as a pedestrian concourse around the ground floor of the plant, architects chose to elevate the walkway due to security concerns and the impracticality of foot traffic between the wide-bases of the ESD’s. But life at the top is not without its challenges. To equalize air pressure and wind loading, the aerial walkways’ enclosure is composed of a series of independent, non-connecting components; a slight separation between the stunning metal roof and the glass paneled siding creates a kind of vented cladding system that allows sufficient air to move in and out of the enclosure under applied air pressure. “These things we knew from the beginning were going to be structural steel elements; there are movement joints in the aerial walkway system that keeps them from cracking at the ends,” saysPolshek architect Greg Clawson.“They’re bridges, basically.” Each walkway section has a pinned connection at one end and a slidingconnection at the other end. The sliding connection sits on a ž-inchbearing plate with a ź-inch Teflonbearing pad.
The walkways were delivered to the site in mainly pre fabricated, shop welded sections. In some instances, other sections were shipped loose for field welding, then fastened in place with structural grade bolts. The main structural work of the aerial walkways was set in place one month after the completion of the digester tanks,which took 102 weeks to complete,at an average of about three months per egg.With diameters of 84 feet and heights of 90 feet, each of the eight egg digesters is clad in S31600 stainless steel, with a low-reflectivity proprietary finish. Similarly, the aerial walkways are clad in an epoxy finish that offers exceptional resistance to atmospheric corrosion and oxidation—key strengths for a facility meant to process 1.8 million gallons of sludge per day. “All the materials throughout are selected to be incredibly durable because it’s a very corrosive environment.” explains Richard Olcott. “Not only because of the salt air and the river air, but because the materials need to last for hundreds of years. Like any other of the projects that were constructed a hundred years ago, you have to build these things to last.”

Premier Jason Kenney announced in Calgary on July 15, 2021, that Albertans will have an opportunity to have their say on equalization and daylight saving time and elect nominees to the Senate when they vote in the fall municipal elections.
In addition to voting for Senate nominees, Albertans will be asked to vote on these two provincial topics on Oct. 18, in conjunction with the municipal elections:
Equalization payments – Should the principle of making equalization payments be removed from the Constitution?
Daylight saving time – Should Alberta end the practice of changing our clocks twice a year?
“Alberta has a long and proud tradition of grassroots, direct democracy. We will renew that tradition this fall. I encourage all Albertans to get engaged on these important issues and I look forward to taking part in the debate this fall.” said Premier Kenney.
Equalization :
Over the last 25 years, Albertans have contributed more than $400 billion more to the nation in tax dollars than they have received in federal spending. Albertans make an immense contribution to equalization through federal tax contributions, which are transferred by the federal government to other provinces for programs and services. The current program has many issues, including a formula that requires it to grow automatically with Canada’s economy, even if contributing provinces like Alberta are experiencing immense economic challenges.
Daylight saving time :
Across Canada and the United States, more governments are bringing forward legislation to move to permanent daylight saving time, also known as summer hours. In 2019, Service Alberta asked Albertans if they thought we should make a similar shift. More than 141,000 Albertans responded, of which 91 per cent were in favour of year-round summer hours.
“Changing our clocks twice a year is something that every Albertan has an opinion on. As Alberta first adopted daylight saving time following a referendum in 1971, we owe it to Albertans to give them the same opportunity to make their voices heard now that we are considering another change.” said Nate Glubish, Minister of Service Alberta.
Senate elections :
Along with the municipal elections and the two referendum questions this fall, Albertans will elect three Senate nominees – one for each of the two current vacancies and one in case of early retirement.
The Senate nominee election enhances democracy in the province by allowing Albertans to choose the individuals who will best represent them in Parliament. Having representatives elected by Albertans would increase senators’ accountability to Alberta voters to defend the province’s interests.
Provincial police and pension :
For the topics of creating an Alberta Police Service and Alberta Pension Plan, further analysis and work are underway before next steps are determined.
“Through the Fair Deal Panel, Albertans who are policed by the RCMP said that they want to see Alberta build its own provincial police service to improve policing in their communities. We are continuing to study what this could look like and how it could improve the safety and security of Albertans and their property, as part of making an informed decision on the next steps.” said Kaycee Madu, Minister of Justice and Solicitor General.
“The potential creation of an Alberta Pension Plan would be a significant decision for Albertans. As such, we are continuing the important work of completing an actuarial, economic and structural analysis so Albertans can make an educated and well-informed choice, and their questions and concerns can be adequately addressed. We look forward to putting this important decision on the table when the time is right.” said Travis Toews, President of Treasury Board and Minister of Finance.

Alberta’s legislature will debate a potential referendum question asking Albertans if they think the principle of equalization payments should be removed from Canada’s Constitution.
Premier Jason Kenney introduced a motion on June 7, 2021 that, if passed, will put the following question on a provincewide referendum ballot on Oct. 18, in conjunction with municipal and Senate elections:
“Should Section 36(2) of the Constitution Act, 1982 –Parliament and the Government of Canada’s commitment to the principle of making equalization payments – be removed from the Constitution?”
“Albertans elected this government to get a fair deal for them. That’s exactly what this referendum is about. For too long, Albertans have been forced to subsidize public services in other parts of the country where politicians have been trying to block our pipelines and impair our vital economic interests, even during times of great economic hardship for us. This fall, Albertans will finally get a chance to tell the federal government that they’ve had enough of the unfair equalization program, and want reforms that recognize our province’s role in creating national prosperity.” said Premier Jason Kenney.
The principle of equalization is embedded into the Constitution and is the Government of Canada’s primary transfer program for addressing fiscal imbalances between provinces.
Albertans fund equalization through federal tax contributions, which are then transferred by the federal government to other provinces for their programs and services.
However, the current program does not take into account fundamental matters of fairness, including the ability of “have provinces” – like Alberta – to contribute transfers even when their provincial economies are down.
“Justin Trudeau’s equalization program is not fair for Albertans. Their generosity is being taken for granted by leaders who are happy to receive the money but reject the jobs that produce it. Albertans will finally have the opportunity to be heard.” said Kaycee Madu, Minister of Justice and Solicitor General.
Holding a referendum on equalization was a key recommendation of the Fair Deal Panel, which submitted a report to government last year recommending several ways Alberta could strengthen its position in Confederation.
“Alberta averages almost $20 billion annually in net contributions to Confederation. Almost 10,000 Canadians commute from across Canada to work in the oilsands alone. Alberta certainly doesn't appear to be getting treated fairly and I'm very happy that our government is listening to those that spoke at our Fair Deal consultations.” said Tany Yao, MLA for Fort McMurray-Wood Buffalo and member, Fair Deal Panel.
“Equalization rewards irresponsible, anti-economic development policies while punishing responsible economic development governance. Over the past 10 years, hard-working Albertans have sent over $400 billion to some provinces that run budgetary surpluses with money that isn’t theirs. Albertans’ self-determinant spirit built this province, so it’s time we asked them whether things need to change.” said Miranda Rosin, MLA for Banff-Kananaskis and member, Fair Deal Panel.
