[Gateway] A South African father is being hailed as a hero after he fought back against a gang of armed carjackers who ambushed him and his children outside their family home, killing one of the attackers in a terrifying gun battle captured on dashcam footage.
Sidney Hill refused to become another helpless victim of South Africa’s violent crime epidemic. And when armed criminals opened fire on his family, the protective father fought back.
The harrowing incident occurred on October 9 at approximately 8 p.m. outside Hill’s home on Lea Place in Pinetown, KwaZulu-Natal.
According to Maroela Media, Hill was preparing to leave his driveway in his Toyota Hilux with his daughter seated beside him. His son was outside, preparing to close the security gate behind them.
[NYP] A brave Amish woman used a weed whacker to scare off an illegal migrant who allegedly tried to kidnap her at knifepoint while she was doing yard work in Pennsylvania, according to local reports and the DHS.
Junior Jose Davila-Moran, 26, allegedly approached the 23-year-old woman from behind with a large knife and black handcuffs while she was weed whacking in her front yard in Lancaster County on Oct. 14., Local 12 News reported.
The knife-wielding migrant allegedly tried to handcuff the woman and claimed that everything would be okay if she complied.
In response, the quick-thinking woman started screaming and revved the weed whacker’s motor as she took a step toward the armed nutjob while screaming, which scared him away, according to an affidavit obtained by the local station.
AI:
Yes—many Amish do use power tools, but typically not those connected to public grid electricity. Instead, they rely on alternatives like batteries, generators, compressed air, hydraulic systems, or gasoline engines, depending on each community’s Ordnung.
Why the Answer Is Nuanced
Amish technology use is governed by the Ordnung, a set of community-specific rules. Because each settlement interprets these rules differently, power tool use varies widely. Some groups forbid all electric tools, while others permit modified or off‑grid versions.

Amish use of power tools is selective, practical, and always shaped by community rules. They often embrace off‑grid technology to remain efficient while preserving their traditional lifestyle.
[NewsMax] President Donald Trump says people should stop watching the WNBA if players refuse to be on the court for the performance of the national anthem.
Trump made his comments during a rally in Iowa Thursday. During the WNBA Finals, the Atlanta Dream and Golden State Valkyries have been leaving the court before the Star-Spangled Banner is performed.
"What's going on with the Women's NBA?" Trump said. What's that all about? They'll destroy themselves before they get started."
#1
Why punish 98+% of players for the few asinine "see me protest for the cameras" stupidity of a few players?
Given the WNBA isn't big draw for us anyway. But we will be recording the game opening and then documenting those players that fail to be respectful will be. (If the Media's hate of America decides to focus on it. We'll have a live copy)
Then letting their sponsors know we disapprove of that players disrespect to America, and their support of said POS.
Since its a fact $$$$$ talks to NGO's and Corporations, seek-out out other competitor products, or causes, than what the disrespectful few have backing them.
#3
Why punish 98+% of players for the few asinine "see me protest for the cameras" stupidity of a few players?
It's the owners who need to be punished. If an owner has players on the team who refuse to stand and be respectful for the national anthem, those players should be cut from the team no matter how well they play. If the owners won't do the right thing, it's easy to stop watching the games. I stopped watching the NFL for the same reason.

[Red State] Just when you thought that we had seen Peak Stupid, something comes along to challenge the current record-holder. In this instance, the new Peak Stupid comes to us from, amazingly, Texas, where Texas Christian University is seeking a "trans rhetoric professor."
Texas Christian University wants to hire a new composition professor who is particularly versed in "trans rhetoric," "Black studies," or "antiracist rhetoric."
Applicants for this new rhetoric and composition professor job, starting in August 2027, will also be considered if they have interests in "disability studies," "global/transnational rhetorics," or feminism and "queer rhetorics."
The Department of English will host this new hire, which will also give them an opportunity to teach in the gender studies and ethnic studies programs. These programs were collapsed last year into the English department due to budget issues and low enrollment.
"Candidates with relevant expertise may also contribute to our department’s programs in Comparative Race and Ethnic Studies and Women and Gender Studies as well as the program in Digital Culture/Digital Analytics and other interdisciplinary initiatives," the posting states.
[JustTheNews] A summary analysis of one month of stories on Apple News found that, of 620 stories Apple had promoted on its top feeds, none was from a right-wing news source.
An estimated 58% of Americans or more – hundreds of millions of people – get their news from at least one of the Big Four news aggregators: Apple News, Google News, Yahoo News and Microsoft’s MSN. No Rantburg?
They’re big. Our appeal has always been selective, though we’re magnified by those who make use of us as an information feed. But think of the kind of people they attract versus us — I’d much rather be here than deal with their nonsense.
But a nonprofit, conservative media watchdog has documented an extreme left-leaning bias among them.
David Bozell, who leads the Media Research Center, says his group in analyzing one month of stories on Apple News found that of 620 stories that Apple had promoted on its top feeds, “not a single one of those stories was from a right-wing news source. Not one. Zero.”
According to research by the MRC, out of 487 top stories last February on Google News, only 11, or 2.2%, were right-leaning; 314, or 64.5%, were left-leaning and 162, or 33.3%, were in the center.
As for Apple News, last January, out of the 620 top stories, there were zero right-leaning ones and 440 left-leaning. Articles on popular websites such as Fox News and the New York Post were never promoted.
A broader “Big Four” analysis in April showed the apps promoted 92% left-leaning outlets and only 17% of right-leaning ones. And when “right-leaning” outlets were promoted, Bozell says, they were typically non-political features that don’t really lean left or right.
Bozell says some of the patterns regarding what news is promoted among the news apps make no sense – unless there’s a paid arrangement that’s not being offered to right-wing news outlets. He points to stories by left-leaning NPR being promoted dozens of times on Apple News while more popular conservative news sites get zero visibility.
“NPR was linked by Apple 155 times in six months,” Bozell told Full Measure. “It was linked by Google 121 times in six months. … How is that? NPR, National Public Radio, [is] the 20th most-popular news website in America today, whereas the New York Post is in the top 10 and Breitbart is in the top 35." Right-leaning news "gets no love from these guys.”
Bozell says the audience is left with little choice because, for example, Apple News is preloaded on iPhones. Google News is preloaded on Androids.
He recommends that news consumers speak up and demand a more diverse mix of information from the Big Four news apps.
[DM] This is the terrifying moment an 18-storey skyscraper collapses in Kenya as looting breaks out in the rubble amid the hunt for survivors.
Footage shows a dramatic crash and huge clouds of dust as the building – thought to have been around 18 storeys high – comes down in a densely populated business and residential area of Eastleigh in Nairobi.
AFP journalists at the scene saw that the skyscraper has reduced to a pile of rubble as a small number of search-and-rescue teams arrived on the scene.
Resident Abdi Aziz, 25, said: 'There were some businesses in the basement, and workers who were busy building.
'But as it was [the Friday prayer], a lot of them were at the mosque. I think few people died because no one was living there.'
Asked if he could see obvious flaws in the construction process, he said: 'Everyone rushes to build in this neighbourhood.' "Rebar? We don't need no steenking rebar! We've got Allah!"
Local media reported looting and possible casualties trapped beneath the rubble, with images showing large crowds gathered at the site immediately after the incident, which happened around lunchtime.
Police were seen using tear gas to disperse crowds gathering near the site.

[Regnum] The Ebola outbreak, caused by the rare Bundibugyo strain, has grown from a localized epidemic in eastern Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) into a crisis in just five months, already being called the largest in recorded history. While just a month ago, isolated imported cases were still being reported outside the DRC, by the end of October 2026, the virus had swept across East, Central, and West Africa, reaching Nigeria, the continent's most populous country.
As of October 20, 9,668 cases and 4,649 deaths have been confirmed, the vast majority of them in the DRC, but the fact that new cases are emerging abroad changes the scale of the threat.
The rate of spread is unprecedented: the 1,000-confirmed case threshold was crossed in 40 days, compared to 235 days in 2018. Doctors Without Borders stated that the virus is spreading across Africa "like a huge wildfire."
The first case of Ebola in Nigeria in over a decade was confirmed on October 20 in a female diplomat arriving from Uganda. She developed symptoms on October 7, two days after arriving, and was hospitalized in a private clinic only on October 11 – after four days of thinking she had malaria.
Laboratory testing confirmed the dangerous diagnosis only two days ago; the patient is currently in serious condition. Authorities are tracing 44 of her contacts, most of whom are healthcare workers.
Significantly, the location of the infection remains a matter of dispute. Uganda insists the woman was only transiting through its territory, having previously been on a business trip to eastern DRC. "Transit through Uganda does not mean the infection occurred here. The location of infection remains unclear," the Ugandan Ministry of Health emphasized.
Nigeria, in this case, is more than just another dot on the map. It is the continent's most populous country, with a population of over 240 million, and this creates a qualitatively different risk of further virus transmission.
"My concern is that now that the virus has spread from East Africa to West Africa, we're dealing with a pan-African problem, not a situation affecting just a few at-risk countries," Nigerian doctor Ayoade Alakija told CBC. She estimated that 12 days elapsed between the onset of the illness and its detection, allowing the serious illness to gain a head start during this period.
In Kenya, where Ebola had never been reported before, the situation unfolded similarly. The first patient, a Kenyan businessman who had lived in the Democratic Republic of the Congo for seven years, arrived in Nairobi via Uganda on October 3, underwent routine screening at the airport, and died a few days later.
By October 21, the number of confirmed cases had risen to nine: four relatives of the first patient, three healthcare workers, and a hospital cleaner are among those infected. More than 130 people who came into contact with the first Kenyan patient are in quarantine.
Against this backdrop, Kenyans recalled the controversial US-built quarantine center at Laikipia Air Base, located near Nanyuki City, for Americans returning from the country. The center's construction, which was opposed by local residents, was halted by a court order.
There are now reports that construction has resumed, but these have not been officially confirmed. Meanwhile, the US State Department has urged its citizens to avoid travel to Kenya.
Uganda also experienced its own outbreak: in May and June, 20 cases were recorded, most of them imported, and two deaths. On August 27, the WHO declared the country Ebola-free after 42 days without new confirmed cases, and no new cases have been reported since June 21.
However, both "export" patients transited through Uganda. In other words, Uganda is technically clear, but there is no convincing evidence that the disease has truly been eradicated there.
The epicenter of the outbreak remains in the DRC, where the virus continues to expand geographically. While it was present in six provinces in September, by the end of October it had spread to eight, with North Ubangi, bordering the Central African Republic, the latest.
Ituri province remains the leader, with almost three-quarters of confirmed cases, but new outbreaks are also emerging in North Kivu.
One of the key problems is late access to care: two-thirds of virus victims in the DRC die outside specialized centers, creating the risk of further transmission. About 40% of new cases are not listed as contacts of known patients.
"Ebola is a community-wide disease. If the community doesn't cooperate, it will be very difficult to control," epidemiologist Serge Ngalebato, who works in the Democratic Republic of Congo, told the AP.
The situation is exacerbated by the lack of a vaccine against the Bundibugyo strain. Trials are already underway, but it is not yet known when they will be completed.
With no vaccine yet approved for this strain and proven treatments unproven, early detection and isolation of contacts remain the primary and, for now, only barrier to the virus's spread. And, as cases in Kenya and Nigeria demonstrate, this barrier is proving belated.
The Africa Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (Africa Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) announced an emergency virtual meeting of health ministers for October 28, and the organization's Director-General, Jean Casey, called for immediate mobilization in the face of an "extremely serious threat": "Ebola is crossing borders. Our response must stay ahead of its spread, with closer coordination, greater solidarity, and decisive political leadership."
Kasey also described the outbreak as the largest in history and warned: " Every day of delay costs lives. Health security in Africa is health security for the world. Stopping Ebola in Africa today means protecting the entire world."
Meanwhile, according to official data, no imported cases have been recorded in Russia, and there is no risk of the virus spreading. Border crossing points have stepped up sanitary and quarantine controls for those arriving from countries with confirmed cases.
[NYP] Strapped into a harness, Josh Law was lowered from a US Coast Guard helicopter into the rough Pacific Ocean in the pitch black night, far off the Mexican coast.
The force of the helicopter blades pummeled the water, whipping up spray and turbulence. The Coast Guard rescue swimmer couldn’t hear anything over the noise or see anything in the darkness. Waves of 6 to 8 feet hit him.
All he could do was follow the searchlight from the helicopter with the hope it would lead him to the more than two dozen people flung into the cold waters some 140 miles off the coast of Mexico’s Baja peninsula.
He would personally rescue 16 of them.
Possibly a duplicate posting, but I suspect it's worth reading again. I hope these young people are appropriately recognized.
Nothing came up in search of Mr. Law’s name, so if we had the story before, he was not identified.
[Federalist] t may not be hard to believe, but Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas just hit yet another major career milestone.
The Bush 41 appointee marked 35 years on the high court on Friday, which comes months after he became the second-longest serving justice in U.S. history. Should he continue to serve through May 2028, Thomas would become the nation’s longest serving justice.
Since joining SCOTUS, Thomas has authored numerous opinions upholding the Constitution and defending Americans’ God-given rights. And while there are too many to list in one article, The Federalist has compiled five of Thomas’ greatest writings to commemorate his 35 years on the nation’s highest bench.
[NYP] Millions of users are worried their digital companions will be deleted after the world’s largest AI character creation site filed for bankruptcy.

[NYP] Google illegally demolished an estimated 250,000 trees in Finland to make way for a data center, leaving behind a lifeless mud wasteland that forced packs of wolves into a nearby town in search of food and infuriated locals, according to a report.
The tech super giant – continuing its expansion of the booming artificial intelligence industry – cleared 816 acres of woodlands in Northern Finland, The Guardian reported Thursday.
Google is accused of removing the trees and clearing the land before it had full approval — as Finnish law requires companies to complete a mandatory Environmental Impact Assessment before large-scale operations.
Finnish officials, outraged by the mass destruction, suspended all development at two of Google’s data center sites to assess the environmental impact.
[TWZ] Denmark is set to acquire Anthem long-range strike weapons from U.S.-based defense startup Covenant, as well as Joint Strike Missile (JSM) cruise missiles from Norway’s Kongsberg Defense & Aerospace. The twin-track approach by the Nordic NATO member will give it all-new options for launching long-range strikes from the ground and air. Furthermore, Denmark’s move reflects a broader European push to acquire longer-range strike options, especially by NATO allies seeking to deter Russia.
Danish Defense Minister Jeppe Bruus announced the planned purchases yesterday. He said the new weapons would strengthen Denmark’s ability to respond to an attack and strike targets “behind enemy lines,” according to Reuters. Copenhagen has not disclosed the number of missiles involved, the value of the purchases, or expected delivery dates.
[NY Post] A fast-moving grass fire that killed at least four soldiers at a western Canadian military base on Saturday was sparked by an exercise using live grenades, a senior defense official said on Thursday.
High winds then propelled the blaze across the army base in Wainwright, overwhelming dozens of soldiers. The incident was one of the worst peacetime tragedies for Canada’s military.
"The fire initiated on the automatic grenade launcher range... [it] initiated as a result of routine military training that was happening on that range at the time," Brigadier-General Vanessa Hanrahan told reporters.
Officials said 27 people remain hospitalized, several in critical condition.

Fires break out on Camp Pendleton on a fairly regular basis, especially when Santa Ana winds are blowing. I wouldn't know for sure what causes the fires but I might hazard a guess that the Marines can get a little rambunctious. I can't remember anybody ever getting killed. I remember years ago when a fire got pretty close to civilian homes in Fallbrook but that hardly ever happens. It's a pretty big base and the fires have a lot of room to burn before they get anywhere near the perimeter although that last big fire earlier this month closed Interstate 5 for a couple of days. I'm sure that was interesting for the people who got stuck in the traffic jam.

[US News And World Report] Los Angeles (AP) — Federal prosecutors sent letters to county registrars across California on Friday demanding that local officials set aside and verify ballots that the Department of Justice said may belong to noncitizens, according to the Los Angeles County registrar and a letter obtained by The Associated Press. I wouldn't put any money on that horse.
The letters are the latest escalation in a legal battle between California and President Donald Trump's Department of Justice, which has recently focused on the state in its efforts to root out noncitizen voting ahead of the midterm elections. Data shows illegal voting by people who aren't U.S. citizens is incredibly rare, difficult to prove and has not been shown to change the outcome of races.
Earlier this month, the federal government targeted Los Angeles County and the California Secretary of State's office in a lawsuit that aimed to block them from counting the votes of roughly 20,000 people who are "likely" noncitizen voters. A hearing on the case is scheduled for Tuesday.
The Trump administration asked the 9th Circuit court of appeals to rule on the lawsuit barring a decision from the district judge assigned to the case. They set a deadline for Saturday.
Now, according to the LA County registrar’s office, at least 18 counties across the state have received similar letters. They have been given a 48 hour deadline to provide identifying information corresponding with ballots that the federal government believes were sent to noncitizens illegally registered to vote. The letter requests that county officials also sequester any ballots where citizenship cannot be verified.
"Any election official who knowingly processes the ballot of a noncitizen is opening themselves to legal jeopardy," said First Assistant U.S. Attorney Bill Essayli.
The Justice Department is asking counties to send information about the voters it suspects are noncitizens including social security numbers, ID information, a copy of their registration and more.
That information can help the government and state quickly assess each person suspected of illegally registering to vote, said the letter sent to San Bernardino County voting officials. The letter says the government's list of suspected noncitizen voters includes 1,133 people from the inland Southern California county.
California’s secretary of state and the Los Angeles County registrar have opposed the federal government’s demands. In legal filings, lawyers for California say the request threatens to delay the certification of the vote and undermine the legitimacy of the November midterms. They have also argued that the federal government's data is unreliable and that their demands risk disenfranchisement of citizens.
[Times of IS] While the Hungarian Jewish community was celebrating the reopening of its 100-year-old Rákospalota Synagogue last month, a local woman approached Rabbi Shlomo Köves.
"She saw the crowd around the synagogue and came over to me and said, ’I don’t know what’s going on here, but can I join?'" recalled Köves, the head of EMIH, a Hungarian Jewish organization affiliated with the Chabad-Lubavitch movement. "I brought her inside, and then she told me she’s Jewish. It turns out she lives there with her children, and she hadn’t been to synagogue before. Now, she comes every Friday night."
That story reflects the mission of Köves, whose organization says it has helped reopen eight synagogues in Hungary over the past 15 years.
During Synagogue Week in September, an annual Budapest festival held around the High Holidays, two historic synagogues were rededicated after being stripped of their sacred functions for decades.
The massive Rákospalota Synagogue, designed in neoclassical and Art Deco styles, was reconsecrated after being used as a National Library storage warehouse for 60 years. A second synagogue, dating back to 1870, was reopened as a prayer center exclusively for Jewish teens.
"There are many old synagogues around Hungary, including many that still look like shuls from the outside," Köves told The Times of Israel on a video call. "We have a historical responsibility to reclaim them. Most of the Jews here don’t have an active affiliation to religion, but this is what connects them to their roots."
[FoxNews] Patients in study had significantly less knee pain and better mobility lasting at least a year.
A non-surgical procedure that temporarily blocks extra blood vessels in the knee is offering lasting pain relief for people with knee osteoarthritis.
In a clinical study of 194 patients, 80% of them reported significant reductions in knee pain that lasted for at least a full year after receiving the treatment.
The findings highlight a potential alternative for millions of adults with chronic joint pain who have outgrown pain medications or steroid injections — but who want to avoid total knee replacement.
Osteoarthritis wears down joint cartilage and causes the body to grow unnecessary new blood vessels around the knee, according to Mayo Clinic.
These extra vessels increase inflammation and irritate surrounding nerves, making daily movement painful.
The procedure, known as genicular artery embolization (GAE), addresses this directly.
By temporarily clogging excess blood vessels, doctors can reduce inflammation and quiet pain-sensing nerves without major surgery or permanent implants.
Because the treatment uses microscopic gelatin particles that dissolve over time, it leaves no foreign material behind. If widely adopted, GAE could provide a repeatable, low-risk way for patients to stay active and preserve joint function longer, researchers say.

[Regnum] In some cases, the production and disposal of paper straws uses more environmentally harmful substances than plastic products.Environmental safety expert Ilya Rybalchenko spoke with Regnum News Agency on Friday, October 23.
Scientists from South Korea previously concluded that paper straws are more harmful to the environment than plastic ones. This is due to energy-intensive production, the use of chemicals, and emissions during disposal. These findings were published in a report commissioned by the country's Ministry of Climate, Energy, and Environment.
According to the expert, paper decomposes more quickly, but this doesn't mean it's less harmful to the environment. The production and disposal of an "eco-friendly" replacement can be more costly to the environment than the production of the material we're trying to eliminate.
"To make a polypropylene plastic straw, the polymer is typically heated, passed through a molding die, cooled, and cut. For a paper straw, the process is more complex," Rybalchenko explained.
The expert added that wood is processed into pulp, cleaned, made into paper, dried, cut into strips, rolled into tubes, and glued. Special coatings are sometimes used to increase water resistance.
"Each stage requires energy, water, and materials. And pulp production also generates wastewater and requires handling chemicals," Rybalchenko noted.
The expert emphasized that paper production should not be considered dirtier than plastic production. In each specific case, the process depends on the technology and energy sources.
Regnum News Agency previously reported that Russia generates approximately 8 million tons of waste paper annually. Today, the country operates over 90 paper recycling plants. Hundreds of products are made from recycled materials, from industrial packaging to consumer goods and building materials.
According to the national project "Environmental Well-Being," Russia plans to achieve 100% sorting of all municipal solid waste by 2030. At least a quarter of this total waste must be returned to production as recyclable materials.
An adult should consume 20–30 grams of fiber per day, equivalent to 400 grams of fruits and vegetables.Nutritionist and medical doctor Daria Rusakova spoke with Regnum News Agency on Friday, October 23.
According to the doctor, adequate fiber reduces the risk of cardiovascular disease, helps prevent obesity, and also provides healthy food for gut bacteria. Gut health affects immunity, weight, and mood.
"It's important to include a variety of fiber sources in your diet—it's easy to gain 25–30 grams without eating exotic foods. Fiber isn't just found in fruits and vegetables; it's also found in legumes, grains, bran, nuts, and dried fruits," Rusakova noted.
The nutritionist emphasized that 100 grams of cucumbers contain only 0.5 grams of fiber. The same amount of tomatoes contains one gram of fiber.
"Therefore, cucumber and tomato salads alone won't meet your fiber requirements. Half a salad (200 g) contains approximately two to three grams of dietary fiber. Salad is beneficial as a supplement to the diet, not as a primary source of fiber," Rusakova explained.
Among non-exotic foods, wheat bran contains the most fiber (40–45 g of fiber per 100 g of product). It can be added to various dishes or purchased as bran bread.
"Next come flax and chia seeds (27-34 g per 100 g); they're great to add to porridge, fermented milk products, and desserts. Dried fruits (apricots, prunes, figs) contain 5.9 to 9 g of fiber per 100 g. Cooked legumes (beans, lentils, chickpeas) contain 6 to 9 g of fiber per 100 g," Rusakova noted.
Barley, buckwheat, oatmeal, bulgur, whole grains, nuts, and seeds are also rich in dietary fiber. The nutritionist recommended eating fruit with the skin to maximize fiber. Raspberries and blackberries are the highest in fiber among berries, and broccoli and carrots are the highest in vegetables.
Nutritionist Yulia Sharapova previously explained to Regnum News Agency that to strengthen immunity during the off-season, it's important to have a varied diet of seasonal vegetables, fruits, and berries, rather than relying on a single "superfood." She explained that seasonal foods can be prepared in any way, but it's important to avoid heating them at high temperatures for long periods of time.
In early September, general practitioner Andrei Kondrakhin, speaking with Regnum News Agency, recommended adding more vegetables, fruits, citrus fruits, onions, and garlic to your diet to combat the autumn blues. Peppers, eggplants, tomatoes, zucchini, and pumpkin are also available during the season.
