SOCCER  /  24 SEPTEMBER 2018, 10:18PM  /  ASHFAK MOHAMED At long last – after years of dominance by Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi, we officially have a new best footballer in the world. Croatian captain Luka Modric was chosen as Fifa’s The Best Men’s Player at a glittering awards ceremony in London on Monday night. Modric was the inspirational skipper who was the driving force in Croatia’s fairytale run to the World Cup final, where they came up short against a powerful French outfit. But that didn’t stop Modric – who also claimed the Golden Ball award as the player of the tournament in Russia – from being voted as the best player for 2018. ADVERTISING inRead  invented by Teads Portuguese superstar Ronaldo had won the last two The Best awards, and has five in total – the same number as his great Argentinian rival Messi.

Fighting Drug addiction

-
 Here's the story: We sat down with a man who had a harrowing journey with addiction. He began by telling us about his early days in tertiary education, where he would occasionally smoke dagga with friends. However, his focus remained on his studies, and he worked hard to graduate and secure a qualification. After landing a job, he started building a life for himself. He got married, bought a property, and even splurged on a car. Life was good, and he felt like he was on top of the world. But one fateful night, while out with friends, he was introduced to heavier narcotics. At first, the experience was exhilarating.

Flaris says recent tests “confirmed the assumptions made previously” about the effectiveness of multiple systems, including its Garmin G600 avionics and Flaris Flight Assistance System flight computer, as well as the landing gear and emergency parachute system. But it also claims more impressive stats like the 250-knot TSA at 10,000 feet. Its 6,000-feet-per-minute climb rate, adds the compan...
