She’s paralyzed and gets around in a wheelchair. So, trying to help her go more places, her then-boyfriend Zack Nelson spliced together two electric bikes with a seat in the center, and it worked. Cambry said she experienced a whole new level of freedom with it. Not only could she overcome or overdrive obstacles that seemed impossible before, she could do miles without her shoulders getting sore. Fast forward a year, Cambry and Zack are married and they’re starting to mass-produce the vehicle they call ‘Not a Wheelchair’. Throughout that time, the couple built upon the original design, making it a reliable off-roader. https://www.boredpanda.com/man-created-off-road-wheelchair-for-girlfriend-jerryrigeverything/?utm_source=google&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=organic

However, the sisters admitted that Khachaturyan was sedated and sitting in an armchair and not directly threatening them when they took his life in 2018 with his hunting knife and a hammer. Initially Maria had claimed he was attacking them with a knife when they killed him, but then admitted he was dozing in an armchair.

The Russian Investigative Committee acknowledged 'mitigating circumstances' in the case but the two older sisters could still face 20 years in prison. The latest twist in the case comes only five months after prosecutors said they were dropping charges but the committee subsequently refused to close the case. The committee's insistence on murder charges for Krestina and Angelina came despite state investigators agreeing that the father inflicted 'physical and mental suffering on his daughters over a long period of time'. Their motive in killing him was 'acute personal hostility', investigators found. Lawyer Yaroslav Pakulin said: 'The girls were in a traumatic situation for a long time. 'They feared not only for their health, but also for their lives, and only defended themselves from their father.' Evidence reported from the investigation revealed the father threatened one of his 'terrified' daughters, saying: 'You will take the place of your mother. 'I will marry you and you will give birth to my baby.' An expert report said: 'He ordered them to get undressed in front of him, saying that he wanted to 'check' them. 'Then ordered them to perform a sex act on him, saying that he had problems with his prostate and it would be a cure.' Maria stabbed him with his own knife, and Angelina hit him with a hammer.

Two out of three sisters who killed their 'rapist' father after suffering years of sexual abuse and torture at his hands must stand trial for premeditated murder, Russian authorities have said. Mikhail Khachaturyan, a 57-year-old alleged mafia boss, was killed with his own hunting knife and a hammer by his daughters Krestina, Angelina and Maria then aged 19, 18 and 17 in 2018 in what their supporters say was an act of self-defence. The three sisters say they acted in self-defence when they killed their divorced father after suffering years of toture and rape.

An explorer has unearthed an incredible set of photos he took of a meeting he had with an isolated tribe deep in the Ecuadorian rainforest the event being the first time they had made contact with the outside world. The pictures belong to Dr Jack Wheeler, 76, who is originally from Southern California. He told MailOnline Travel that he discovered the images on film slides while sifting through belongings in his loft during the lockdown and decided to get them digitalised. The photographs, taken in 1972, show Dr Wheeler's 'truly extraordinary' meeting with a family within the 'Naked Auca' tribe after he touched down in dense Amazonian jungle in a small helicopter. The Auca settlement as it appeared from Dr Wheeler's helicopter, with trees cleared around the main hut. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/travel/travel_news/article-8462837/Explorer-unearths-photos-showing-Amazonian-tribe-making-contact-outside-world-time.html

A neighbor/friend planning to get 98/99 W140 (S class) or 01/02 W210(E class). V6 3.2L Engine in both. Few days ago we had discussion about both cars with a Toyota mechanic who came to fix a camry around. The mechanic said the W140 is one of the worst model ever produced by Benz despite the luxury. He asked us, 'when was the last time you saw the car on the road or on a dealership lot?' and i was like 'is been years o' He continued, 'most owners end up parking them in garage under cover leather or jack up on stones' He said the W140 is not reliable, there's always engine problem, gear issues, electrical issues and parts can be very very expensive. We don't know maybe the bros is speaking base on his experience with 1 or 2 units of the car.

Some three hours later, apparently from his hospital bed, Police García Harfuch on Twitter blamed his injuries and the death of two bodyguards on a "cowardly attack" by the Jalisco New Generation Cartel, a gang renowned as one of the most violent in the country. The attack on García Harfuch was the first on a top cop in Mexico City since 2008 when Julio César Sánchez Amaya, the then chief of the Federal District's Public Security, was targeted by the Sinaloa Cartel in a failed car bombing.
