Picture of the Day

An increasing number of elderly Japanese people are committing small crimes so they can live in prison for free. People aged 65+ now make up more than a quarter of the prison population in Japan

Crime figures show that about 35 per cent of shoplifting offenses are committed by people over 60. Within that age bracket, 40 per cent of repeat offenders have committed the same crime more than six times.

There is good reason, concludes a report, to suspect that the shoplifting crime wave in particular represents an attempt by those convicted to end up in prison — an institution that offers free food, accommodation and healthcare.

What Is Doctor Assisted Death Like?

(photo: @alex_boyd)

An immediate family member last year was diagnosed with bronchiolitis obliterans (popcorn lungs) with an unknown cause to it. It is something that is not curable. As someone who was a daily part of my life it was hard to watch the condition progress.

His condition progressively got worse and he was transferred to a palativcare physicality a couple of weeks ago. He wasn’t happy living the way he was living and slowly dying. The doctors discussed with him the option of assisted death… something he did not know about, and myself I thought was still not finalized in Canada yet, so it was a surprise to hear this.

This Is What Happens When You Continually Harass Mike Tyson

A video captured Mike Tyson throwing hands at a unruly passenger after being continually harassed.

According to TMZ, a witness said Mike was initially cool, even taking a selfie and being patient with the witness’ overly excited friend. But the friend kept trying to speak to the boxer.

When Mike had enough, he told the fan to chill but the man persisted with the conversation attempts. Sometime after Mike began to rain punches on the man, beating him on the face and head.

A photo shows a few blood drops on the side of the man’s face, who later received medical attention and reported to police.
