Guns in wrong hands SA Mass Killings

-
 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 ...

West Coast Customs Shows How It Built Justin Bieber’s Weird Rolls-Royce

Watch Bieber's reaction when he takes delivery.

It took three years for West Coast Customs to complete Justin Bieber's custom Rolls-Royce Wraith with styling inspired by the Rolls-Royce 103EX concept (gallery below). The build is finally complete, and the shop chronicles the long build process in a new video.

Bieber started off wanting to buy the 103EX, but that vehicle wasn't even drivable. It was simply a styling exercise to highlight the brand's future. Instead, West Coast Customs worked with the pop star to build a Wraith with overhauled styling to look more like the concept.

The team started by scanning the exterior of the Rolls Royce to know the exact shape of every body panel. West Coast Customs then used that info to create molds for the new body kit.

The Wraith now has covers that conceal the wheels and make the coupe appear to float down the road. There is also a new front end with a more complex design and resculpted fenders that lend a flowing look.

This creation is closer to classic coachbuilding, rather than just throwing a body kit onto a normal vehicle. West Coast Customs also came up with unique lighting, including hidden illumination along the lower edge of the body, which creates an especially striking effect in the dark.

Inside, it's hard to improve on what Rolls-Royce does. West Coast Customs simply changes out the colors of the leather upholstery to match the exterior. 

Rolls-Royce's Future:

The bigger change is improving the audio system. The professionally tuned setup includes amps with a power slide-out section in the trunk. It's quite a showpiece for the already impressive vehicle.

The video also catches the moment that Bieber takes delivery of the custom Wraith, and he's very impressed. The reaction is understandable because the pop star now owns a unique Rolls-Royce that looks like none other on the road.

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. 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....

Ultra-Widebody Volkswagen Bus "Volkswide" Looks Like a Porsche Racing Van

  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...
