Silent Goodbye a sad reality. (Mom passes on & leaves small Children)

-
The quiet community of Ngodini, just outside Nelspruit in Mpumalanga, South Africa, woke up to heartbreaking news that left neighbours and relatives in disbelief. Twelve-year-old Ayanda had always been the responsible one. As the eldest of three children, she helped her mother care for her younger siblings, eight-year-old Sipho and four-year-old Amahle. Their mother, Nomsa, worked hard to provide for them, often reminding her children that no matter how difficult life became, they should always love and protect one another. One cold winter morning, the children woke up as usual. Ayanda prepared breakfast while waiting for their mother to get up for work. Minutes turned into an hour, but Nomsa never came out of her bedroom. Ayanda gently knocked on the door. "Mama?" she called softly. There was no answer. She knocked again, louder this time. "Mama, it's morning. You have to wake up." Still, there was only silence. Growing worried, Ayanda tried opening the door. H...

Guardiola as Germany coach? 'I would sign him instantly'

Guardiola as Germany coach? 'I would sign him instantly'

If Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola ever became available, Germany should instantly sign him as their national team coach, Germany midfielder Ilkay Gundogan said on Tuesday.

Gundogan, who plays for City under the Spaniard, said it was nevertheless unlikely that Guardiola, who has led City to two Premier League titles, would succeed Germany's Joachim Loew, who will step down after 15 years following this summer's Euros.

"I would personally hire him instantly but I think that would be difficult as he is not currently available," Gundogan told a virtual news conference ahead of the World Cup qualifier against North Macedonia on Wednesday.

"I also don't know if I would like to be without him at City," the midfielder said.

Guardiola has won an array of titles as coach of Barcelona, Bayern Munich and City, who again lead the title race this season.

Loew, who steered Germany to the 2014 World Cup title, has decided to leave two years ahead of his contract expiry following a disappointing 2018 World Cup campaign and a recent bad run of results including a 6-0 loss to Spain last year.

Several coaches, including Bayern Munich's Hansi Flick, a former Loew assistant, have been linked with the high profile job in media reports.

"I don't know what will happen," Gundogan said. "We will have two, three good final months with Joachim Loew and give him the departure that he deserves after everything he has done for us."

The Germans have beaten Iceland and Romania to top Group J on six points, ahead of Armenia on goal difference, and they face North Macedonia in Duisburg on Wednesday.

This New Ultralight Aircraft May Be World’s Fastest Single-Engine Business Jet

  The speedy LAR-01's automotive interior adds comfort and luxury. Plus: The wings detach, so the jet can be stored in a home garage. By  MICHAEL VERDON           Courtesy Flaris The  Flaris  LAR-01 has a number of striking stats, including being a ton lighter (literally) than its competitors, along with an unusually short-field landing capability, and detachable wings. But its most impressive number is the 250-knot true air speed, which its designers say makes it the world’s fastest business jet among single-engine very light jets and turboprop aircraft. 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...

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....
