'The Manta' Sailing Yacht is Designed to Feed on Plastic Waste for Power–While Cleaning Oceans

"In between the three pontoons, conveyor belts scoop up trash as small as 10 millimeters, over which the Manta glides, while three trawl nets drifting behind (to a depth of 1 meter, thereby avoiding sea life) add to the onboard collection. This trash is then fed into a processing machine where crewmen sort it before moving it into an incinerator that melts the plastic and uses the gases in a turbine to power the electric motor."
 

Football club that has lost money due to Covid then had to make way for Mission Impossible 7 to be filmed there, Tom Cruise signs a bunch of their shirts which can be auctioned off to raise funds for the club.

Cruise is an odd one; he does a lot of his own stunts, at premieres he spends hours pressing hands with fans, he does stuff like this signing shirt business. On the other hand he's a raving scientologist fruitloop.

Reminds me of how Ryan Reynolds and Mac off of Always Sunny bought Wrexham football club, which is one of those stories I still can't believe is real.
 
Can you imagine a crossing without a vehicle approaching? There are trials of crossings which monitor how many people are waiting to cross and will react accordingly.

Tom Cruise spends hours pressing hands at premieres and that doesn't strike you as a a bit messiah complex?
 
Before gigs stopped being a thing, I went to one where the support act was the singer out of Terrorvision. He became a dry-stone waller post-fame, and claimed during his performance that, while engaged in his art in the Pennines, he had moved a set of ancient stones marking the Yorkshire/Lancashire border about fifty yards into Lancashire. He reasoned that since twelve years had since passed "it's ours now".
