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 ...

Eddie Hall Credits His 90-Pound Weight Loss to Doing One Thing Every Morning

Since winning the World's Strongest Man title in 2017, Eddie Hall's body has gone from swole to jacked.

Of course that has a lot to do with swapping his heavyweight weight sessions and an all-you-can-eat diet for boxing training and a meticulously thought out nutrition program, but, according to Hall, that swap isn't the biggest factor in his 90-pound weight loss.

According to him, his mile-and-a-half morning walks are the real secret behind his new lean and mean physique.

"I would say the biggest change for me is adding in daily walks," says Hall, "just every day getting up in the morning and walking a mile and a half. Some mornings I run and some mornings I walk, but every single day I get up and do a mile and a half, and I take my dog out. It helps me clear my mind, sets me up for the day and it's a great way of getting exercise in, and I genuinely believe that's why the weight has fallen off me."

While his morning walks have become sacrosanct, Hall says he's not militant about them. He doesn't use any tracking devices, nor does he try to get a certain number of steps in. He just shows up every morning and speeds up or slows down depending on how he feels.

"I don't use any of those fucking Fitbits or anything like that; I find them really stressful," says Hall. "I just I just go with the flow. I don't put any marker on it; I just do it all by feel."

Hall was forced to pull out of his long-awaited fight with his arch-enemy and fellow former strongman Hafthor 'Thor' Bjornsson after suffering a gruesome bicep injury. Their meeting – dubbed the World's Strongest Fight – has been postponed until next year.

However, having successfully negotiated surgery, Hall is now back in training, but, he says, he has lost none of his to desire to beat Thor, who he hasn't forgiven for saying he cheated his way to the World's Strongest Man title in 2017. "I want to snap the chin off that bloke," says Hall.

Even though he's now 90 pounds lighter, we wouldn't fancy standing across the ring from him. Good luck, Thor.

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...
