The early indications are that the state of Hawaii will be very disappointed with the outcome of the Supreme Court case challenging its so-called vampire rule. This is the rule that says you can’t carry a concealed weapon into a business open to the public unless express permission is granted. That’s good news, not just for Hawaiians, but for everyone else dealing with such laws.However, I don’t think Hawaii should be overly surprised by that. After all, when your arguments look like this, what else can you expect?“Hawai‘i’s unique history—including its long pre-statehood existence as…
So far, the Pentagon has not been asked to draft a plan for an invasion of Greenland, as those living on the Arctic island prepare for the scenario, just in case. However, United States ruler Donald Trump has refused to say how far he’d go to acquire Greenland for “national security” reasons. Trump has increased his rhetoric once again, this time not willing to rule out a military invasion. The U.S. president also increased the uncertainty over how far he would be willing to go to acquire Greenland as he warned the Nato alliance on Tuesday that it was only as…
I didn’t need many ski runs to understand what the Powderbound women’s ski jacket does best. Tested during an early-season weekend at Aspen Snowmass, I quickly realized it’s a comfortable, no-fuss resort jacket that prioritizes warmth and thoughtful attributes over technical bells and whistles. And this is a good thing. The Powderbound is part of REI’s value-oriented ski lineup. It’s easy to wear, adequately featured, and surprisingly well-fitting for a women’s ski jacket at this price. Nothing about it feels flashy, but it doesn’t feel cheap either, despite the friendly cost. After testing, I fondly thought of the Powderbound as…
Maryland Gov. Wes Moore is cheering the Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals decision on Tuesday that upheld the vast majority of the “gun-free zones” put in place after the Supreme Court ruled that “may issue” carry permitting regimes violate the Second Amendment. Maryland was one of several “may issue” states that responded to the ruling by making it impossible for those with permits to carry to legally do so in most publicly accessible places. Before Bruen, Maryland didn’t have nearly as many “gun-free zones,” but after losing the ability to block average citizens from getting…
In an ideal world, men and women could interact and train together without any issues at all. Unfortunately, there are issues. Some guys are wonderful people and welcome women at the range and in training classes just as they would anyone else. Others get a little too excited and run women off because they come across creepy, and other guys are just creeps. To be fair, there are levels of bad among the women, too. People are human.Because of those differences, though, and the fact that women are more likely to feel uncomfortable if they’re…
Wraith Metalworks is a company that we had not seen before at SHOT Show’s Industry Day at the Range. So, when we happened upon their booth at SHOT Show 2026, we dropped in to see what this fabrication and sound suppression company was all about. Wraith Metalworks – Modular Suppression System With the NFA no longer charging all of us $200 per silencer that we want to own, it opens the door for infinitely more purchases because the government isn’t cutting into our wallets and bank accounts. So, with a company like Wraith Metalworks where their schtick is modularity and…
One thing I’ve said more than a few times is that we say that someone who has served their time in prison has paid their debt to society. In reality, they don’t. They have their rights restricted to a fair degree even after they’ve completed their sentence. Among those restrictions is their right to keep and bear arms.Several felons sought to change that by challenging the federal ban on those with felonies possessing firearms. Now, those challenges have hit the end of the road, and it didn’t go well.The Supreme Court shunted aside several gun…

From perfect-cadence pushups in unison to burpees, squats, lunges and running, the PT coordinators in the Marine Corps create challenging workouts for large groups of recruits and Marines alike. You are limited to your group’s fitness abilities and your imagination in how you create the combination of exercises of this circuit.

Cold hands can ruin a ski day faster than anything. That’s why I’m so picky about what goes on my digits. Get this wrong, and it doesn’t matter how good the snow is. You’ll spend the day thinking about numb fingers instead of powdery turns. Luckily, The North Face Montana ski gloves are built for skiing. They’re not trying to be ultralight, minimalist, or touring-focused. Instead, they prioritize warmth, weather protection, and everyday comfort. And, they do it at an accessible price point. With updated Heatseeker Eco insulation, a DryVent waterproof insert, and details aimed at lift-served skiing, these ski…
To understand the new politics stance and other pro nationals of recent times, we should look to Silicon Valley and the quantified movement of the latest generation. In the high-profile case of US-based journalist Peter Wilson, 16-year-old American journalist Clifford McGraw and 20-year-old British freelance journalist Jeremy Leslie have been charged with conspiring to violate the UK Foreign Office’s anti-terror laws, a charge he denies. On Monday, UK attorney Andy McDonald revealed that he had spoken. “Few worry about catching Covid anymore, as it’s just a matter of time before they do,” says Tea, a teacher at a school for…

Jungfrau-Aletsch-Bietschhorn The Jungfrau-Aletsch-Bietschhorn region is a magnificent area with high mountain ranges, glaciers and is actually the most glaciated part of the European Alps. Visiting this area can be done relatively easy by car and if you want to go up, by train up to 3,400 metres above sea level, the highest train ride in Europe, the Jungfrau Railway is very impressive (and expensive!). The area is on the UNESCO World Heritage list because of its unique and wide range of flora and fauna and geological importance regarding the creating of the High Alps.
