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...

Prince Harry lands tech executive job in Silicon Valley

By The Washington Post Time of article published 18h ago

Prince Harry has a new title: Tech executive.

The Duke of Sussex is the newest employee of BetterUp, a Silicon Valley start-up, the Wall Street Journal first reported on Tuesday. No longer a working member of the British royal family, Harry will serve as "chief impact officer" for the company.

BetterUp "brings together world-class coaching, AI technology, and behavioral science experts" to help people "live more meaningful, vibrant lives," according to the company's website. Harry, who has openly spoken about his own struggles with mental health, has been working with one of BetterUp's coaches and using the app himself. But his unusual background apparently made filling out the initial multiple-choice questionnaire a bit of a challenge.

"I realize I'm an outlier so there's no need to get the engineers on it!" he told the Wall Street Journal, adding, "I was matched with my coach who, quite frankly, is truly awesome and has always given me sound advice and a fresh perspective, which is so valuable."

Duke of Sussex 'really excited' to be taking new role
The Duke of Sussex has said he is “really excited” to be taking a new role at US professional coaching and mental health firm BetterUp. The company confirmed on Tuesday that Harry has been appointed chief impact officer.

Harry's role within the company doesn't involve supervising direct reports, according to the paper, and instead will mean providing input on product strategy and corporate giving. It also means that the Duke of Sussex will serve as a public face of the company while continuing his advocacy for mental health awareness.

The announcement comes in the wake of Harry and Meghan's explosive interview with Oprah Winfrey earlier this month, where the couple said they had faced racism and rejection within the royal family. Since relocating to California, the pair have embarked on a series of commercial ventures, including a podcast deal with Spotify.

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....
