Fox News: Las Vegas reality TV star 'blacked out,' killed woman in drug-fueled rage: documentary
Akshaya "Ash" Kubiak, a former star of Showtime’s reality show "Gigolos," was sentenced to 8 to 20 years in prison for the 2020 bludgeoning death of 29-year-old Herleen Dulai. Kubiak, who pleaded guilty to voluntary manslaughter, was under the influence of psychedelic mushrooms during the incident.

The Telegraph: A WW2-style lend-lease programme could deliver Ukraine from the brink
Europe is taking steps to define its role in the Ukraine conflict by developing a peace plan. However, President Zelensky faces pressure from both Trump and Putin, risking Ukraine's sovereignty and resources. A ceasefire without concessions from Russia would lead to an unjust peace.
To support Zelensky, European banks should mobilize nearly $300 billion in frozen Russian assets, potentially providing loans to Ukraine. This approach could strengthen Ukraine's defenses and economic recovery, while pressuring Putin to make concessions. A modern lend-lease strategy may be essential for achieving a lasting peace.

Life is temporary, akin to a hotel stay, and death is inevitable. The author reflects on how humans often cling to earthly pleasures, delaying the acceptance of death. This struggle highlights the need for readiness, as God controls the timing of our departure from life.
Death is not just an end but a culmination of our lives' efforts, meant to be embraced as a moment of achievement. For Christians, it represents the ultimate return to God, where one can offer their life's struggles as a sacrifice, seeking divine acceptance.
