Between graduations that benchmark the next stages in self-reliance, to forever-handy Father’s Day ideas for dad, the right multitool always makes a fitting present. Not to mention the longer days spent outdoors. They often equate to more needs on unexpected adventures, or at least more everyday projects around the house. Leatherman is leaning into the ideal timing with a promotion on its popular Wave+ and Rebar models, giving customers in the U.S. and Canada…
ISLAMABAD (AP) — The United States and Iran are close to signing an agreement aimed at ending their war, three regional officials told The Associated Press on Friday. A senior U.S. official said the tentative deal includes terms for removing and destroying nuclear material from Iran. Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi posted Friday on X that an agreement “has never been closer.” He gave no details, saying a final deal was still pending. The apparent breakthrough in negotiations comes after Iran exchanged fire with the U.S. and Israel over three days this week, threatening to return the Middle East to…
A PCS move involves lots of moving parts, like housing decisions and relocation logistics. One area that’s easy to overlook is homeowners insurance. While most homeowners assume their coverage remains in place during a move, PCS orders can create insurance gaps that leave your home, personal belongings, and finances at risk. Whether you’re selling your home, renting it out, or leaving it vacant during deployment, your insurance needs often change. Understanding how PCS moves affect home insurance can help you avoid denied claims, unexpected costs, and coverage gaps. What Happens to Homeowners Insurance During a PCS? Your military homeowners insurance…
Massachusetts’ restrictive gun control laws failed to stop a violent felon from illegally arming himself and opening fire on a busy Cambridge thoroughfare last month, and now the state’s draconian gun laws have once again had a high-profile failure after a pair of juveniles held up a lemonade stand in south Boston run by a pair of youngsters. The 12-year-old boy and 11-year-old girl were robbed of about $80 on Wednesday afternoon by two masked individuals who are thought to be not much older than their victims. The police put out a public call Thursday afternoon…
BRUSSELS (AP) — NATO’s top military officer is weighing alternative plans to defend Europe should it come under attack from Russia, after the United States announced that it is cutting the number of aircraft and warships that it would provide in a security crisis. The so-called NATO Force Model is Plan A for making forces from the 32 member nations available in times of peace, crisis or war. It sets out the military assets that commanders can call on in phases over the first six months of any conflict. But last month, the Pentagon warned its NATO allies that it…

The best parts of summer happen outdoors, whether it’s a lunch-break loop through the city, a post-work stroll, or a weekend adventure on the trail. And when the adventure wraps, a fresh, satisfying meal nearby makes it even better. Together, a day spent outdoors and food inspired by the season are reminders to slow down and savor more of what summer has to offer. Pairing healthy outdoor fun and food is worth celebrating. That’s why Sweetgreen and AllTrails are spotlighting a collection of iconic urban hikes across the U.S., matched below with seasonal Sweetgreen menu favorites for the perfect post-trail…
In the midst of litigation with parent organization, the NRA Foundation has rebranded itself. Whether or not the lawsuit has anything to do with the name change is not known. Earlier this year the National Rifle Association sued their subsidiary organization NRA Foundation. In the suit the NRA alleges that the Foundation has been withholding funds, are engaged in cyber squatting, are using trademarks owned by them unlawfully, and makes other accusations. The Foundation asserts that they’re trying to establish independence from their parent organization and are simply upholding their fiduciary duties. The Foundation cites…
Imagine being arrested, jailed, and forced onto an ankle monitor. Not because you committed a crime, but because the federal government’s background check system got your record wrong. That’s exactly what happened to Florida gun owner William Brewer, according to a recent report from Gun Owners of America (GOA). Brewer spent 14 days behind bars and another two weeks on an ankle monitor after the National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS) allegedly misidentified him as a convicted felon during a firearm purchase. The error stemmed from what GOA says was a mistaken match involving a decade-old misdemeanor case in…
Landing on PC, PS4, and Xbox One in May 2019, the first Plague Tale game set a strong precedent for the budding franchise, delivering a narrative-led adventure that put character growth and emotional storytelling at the forefront of the experience. While A Plague Tale: Innocence and its 2022 sequel A Plague Tale: Requiem featured stealth mechanics, combat was far from its primary focus. The same can’t be said, however, for the upcoming Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy. Back in April, I attended a preview event for Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy in Paris. Along with around an hour or so…
I’ve not hidden my support for Brandon Herrera. I’ve purchased exactly one piece of campaign merch in my life, and it’s a t-shirt from Herrera’s campaign. He’s a very pro-gun candidate and that’s important to me. He’s not a one-issue candidate, either, which also matters, and while I don’t agree with him on everything, I do think he’s a solid choice for the House of Representatives. His opponent isn’t.Herrera made not just a solid showing, but came in first during the primary. He avoided a runoff because troubled incumbent Tony Gonzales withdrew from the race…
From the dense jungles and tunnel complexes of Vietnam, where he answered more than 380 Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) calls in a single year, to becoming one of the first EOD specialists selected for the original Delta Force, Vining has forged a career defined by technical mastery under extreme pressure and an enduring commitment to his fellow service members. His path took him through the high-stakes rescue attempt Operation EAGLE CLAW in Iran, the intense combat of Operation URGENT FURY in Grenada, support to a major domestic prison crisis known as Operation POCKET PLANNER, and later roles investigating the Khobar…
The North Atlantic Treaty Organization has launched an experimental Arctic drone task force expanding its military presence in the region. The United States-led bloc has consistently cited an alleged Russian threat to justify its Arctic buildup. According to a report by RT, this latest NATO initiative was unveiled over the weekend as the research vessel Alliance departed La Spezia, Italy, launching Task Force X-Arctic (TFX-Arctic). The experimental unit is set to operate through 2026 and into next year, with the stated aim of demonstrating how uncrewed systems can provide persistent multi-domain situational awareness across the North Atlantic, the Arctic, and the…
We sped down Cement Creek Road between 11,000-foot Cement Mountain and Red Mountain’s ridge. The sun was setting on our double-track return. For the first time on our ride, I easily rolled at a faster clip than my e-bike partner, Dane Tudor. He was on a full suspension e-MTB, while I was testing the updated Aventon Ramblas ADV hardtail e-mountain bike. Clearly, this playful, nimble hardtail design is made to transfer power to the ground. The tread pattern enables the bike to roll quickly and efficiently: Maxxis Rekon tires utilize a tightly spaced, ramped center tread. The design minimizes resistance,…
As we’ve long seen, Floridians aren’t anti-gun. In fact, they removed a number of lawmakers who voted for the post-Parkland gun control measures, and they continue to push for a restoration of their gun rights. In fact, they’ve made some pretty good strides. Unfortunately, those post-Parkland measures are still in place. While Gov. Ron DeSantis has been pretty pro-gun, it’s been Attorney General James Uthmeier who has made a lot of the recent pro-gun moves.His latest has been to say that the state’s three-day waiting period is unconstitutional and is settling a lawsuit that challenged…
Last fall, a few Japanese automakers started looking into the possibility of importing some of their American-made vehicles into Japan. Seemingly the reason behind this wasn’t just to sell more cars, but also to potentially improve relations with the US, and particularly the Trump administration, to potentially ease tariffs on Japan’s exports. Some automakers have begun to follow through on those plans, particularly Toyota, as it and its subsidiary Subaru may bring two more models to Japanese customers. The Biggest Comes From Subaru Credit: Subaru At first blush, it seems a little strange that, of all the models Subaru could sell…
