When people talk about “guns in the wrong hands,” they usually mean the risks that come up when firearms are accessed or used by people who are likely to cause harm—intentionally or accidentally. Here’s a clear, high-level way to look at it: Why it’s a problem Increased violence: Guns make conflicts far more deadly when used in crimes or impulsive situations. Accidents: Unsecured firearms can lead to accidental injuries, especially involving kids or teens. Suicide risk: Easy access to guns raises the danger during moments of crisis. Theft and trafficking: Poor storage can allow guns to be stolen and end up in criminal circulation. Common ways guns end up in the “wrong hands” Unsafe storage (unlocked, loaded, or accessible at home) Illegal sales or straw purchasing (someone buying a gun for another person) Theft from homes or cars Lack of training or oversight What helps reduce the risk Safe storage: Locked, unloaded, with ammunition stored separately. Education: Teaching ...

Former Zamalek player labels Pitso Mosimane ‘ruthless’
Former Zamalek and Egypt midfielder Ayman Abdelaziz has labelled Al Ahly head coach Pitso Mosimane ‘ruthless’ despite getting along with the players.
Mosimane has been very successful since joining Al Ahly, as he helped them win the treble and finished third in the Club World Cup.
His success with the Reds earned him a lot of praise, especially for the way he treats his players.
“Mosimane is very funny, something we see with many Africans, he can easily attract the Al Ahly players. But on the pitch he’s ruthless,” Abdelaziz told OnTime Sport.
Abdelaziz then discussed Ferjani Sassi situation and Zamalek’s chances in the Champions League.
“Zamalek must renew for Sassi, I know that there is difficulty in renewing due to the required sums,” he explained.
“But the Zamalek management’s job is to provide the financial resources that can keep the current team, because if a player or three of them leave, things will be different.
“Sassi has to be more lenient in his demands and the board has to keep the team’s structure for at least two more years.
“Zamalek does not lack players in any position apart from the attack.
“You had alternatives such as Omar El-Said or Osama Faisal, but you neglected them, you do not have a striker on which to base the attack.
“I blame Pacheco for relying on Zizo as a right-back in the presence of Hazem Emam. It’s not necessary for you to play all 18 players because they are all good.
“Changing the players’ positions for their participation only makes them perform badly, like what happened with Emam Ashour.
“Obama is one of the important players in Zamalek, and when you talk to him you feel that you are talking a kind-hearted kid.
“He is the best playmaker in Egypt, because he was a striker. But I warned him that the coaches think he’s careless because he sometimes deals badly with the easy situation.
“I don’t want the fans to worry about the team in the CAF Champions League. We only played one game, we were unlucky and some players weren’t placed in their normal positions.
“There’s still a long way to go before talking about qualifying, and Zamalek has the strongest team in Egypt and Africa,” he added.

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. He described it as an elevation from the mild high of dagga to a level 5 high, where he felt invincible and euphoric. The effects would last for days, allowing him to party from Friday to Sunday without sleep. The problem, however, began to manifest on Mondays and Tuesdays every week, when the withdrawal symptoms would kick in, and he'd struggle to function at work....
Home > News > Renderings It's easy to understand why a muscle car or a Ferrari is cool - the big engine and cool body. But car culture is also influenced by television, rarity, or simply a generation growing up with a particular vehicle. The Volkswagen Bus is a perfect example of this because it's slow, not sporty-looking, yet it can cost a lot of money. 16 photos The Bus is perhaps one of the least understood collectibles, right up there with bubble cars. You see them grabbing huge money at auctions, making it difficult to visualize why somebody wouldn't rather have a Ferrari or some 1960s Mustang. Comedian Gabriel Iglesias is known as the VW Bus King, as his collection of Vdubs is reportedly worth in excess of $3 million. The Hoonigan crew recently did a feature video, but we still had trouble picturing the value of these vehicles. Fortunately, there's a set of renderings that takes the visuals of the Microbus to the level where everybody...
