  • Sharks are *way* older than you think.

    Sharks are older than Saturn’s rings.
    For most of human history, sharks were considered fairly harmless, a perception that changed forever with the 1975 release of Steven Spielberg’s Jaws. Relative to the total amount of time sharks have been around, however, “most of human history” is just the blink of an eye.

    Having existed for somewhere between 400 million and 450 million years, these fish are older than just about anything you can think of — including Saturn’s rings. While the planet Saturn itself formed some 4.5 billion years ago alongside the rest of our solar system, its rings formed between 10 million and 100 million years ago, making them relatively recent in the grand scheme of things.

    And just for fun, here are some other things sharks are older than: trees (which are roughly 390 million years old), the North Star (70 million years), and the Atlantic Ocean (150 million years). That’s right — sharks have existed longer than one of the oceans they now swim in, as the Atlantic didn’t form until the supercontinent Pangea broke apart.


    Sharks weren’t recorded making noise until 2025.

    They don’t call them silent killers for nothing, and indeed part of what’s made sharks so frightful in the collective imagination is the idea that their attacks, while vicious, are noiseless. But sharks aren’t entirely silent. University of Auckland scientists have recorded a rig shark making a clicking sound, most likely by snapping its teeth. Their research was published in March 2025, marking a breakthrough in our understanding of these ancient creatures. The sound, which the sharks made an average of nine times in a 20-second span, wasn’t produced while swimming or feeding. The researchers believe it isn't used as a means of communication, but rather is something sharks do when startled or stressed.

    Virginia Tech shooting leaves 32 dead.

    On April 16, 2007, 32 people died after being gunned down on the campus of Virginia Tech by Seung-Hui Cho, a student at the college who later died by suicide.

    The Virginia Tech shooting began around 7:15 a.m., when Cho, a 23-year-old senior and English major at Blacksburg-based Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University, shot a female freshman and a male resident assistant in a campus dormitory before fleeing the building.

    Police were soon on the scene; unaware of the gunman’s identity, they initially pursued the female victim’s boyfriend as a suspect in what they believed to be an isolated domestic-violence incident.

    However, at around 9:40 a.m., Cho, armed with a 9-millimeter handgun, a 22-caliber handgun and hundreds of rounds of ammunition, entered a classroom building, chained and locked several main doors and went from room to room shooting people. Approximately 10 minutes after the rampage began, he died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound.

    The attack left 32 people dead and more than a dozen wounded. In all, 27 students and five faculty members died in the massacre.

    Two days later, on April 18, NBC News received a package of materials from Cho with a timestamp indicating he had mailed it from a Virginia post office between the first and second shooting attacks. Contained in the package were photos of a gun-wielding Cho, along with a rambling video diatribe in which he ranted about wealthy “brats,” among other topics.

    In the aftermath of the Virginia Tech shooting, authorities found no evidence that Cho, who was born in South Korea and moved to America with his family in 1992, had specifically targeted any of his victims. The public soon learned that Cho, described by students as a loner who rarely spoke to anyone, had a history of mental health problems.

    It was also revealed that angry, violent writings Cho made for certain class assignments had raised concern among some of his professors and fellow students well before the events of April 16. In 2011, Virginia Tech was fined by the U.S. Department of Education for failing to issue a prompt campus-wide warning after Cho shot his first two victims.

  • The Story Of Adriana Olivia Kuch:

    On February 1st, 2023, she was beaten unconscious in the school hallway by a group of 4 older girls, one of whom struck her with a heavy plastic water bottle so hard the cap flew off. At least one of the girls even blamed her for the assault! They filmed the whole thing and posted it to Tiktok. By the end of the assault, Adriana was unconscious, bruised, bloodied, and humiliated. She should have been transported to a hospital, but the school nurse decided not to do so, and instead allowed her to call her father once she came to.

    Adriana and her father went straight to a police station to file a police report on the attack that she had suffered. But the worst part was yet to come.

    Once they got home, she discovered the video, which had gone viral. In the comments section, there were vile statements and comments directed towards her. The video was taken down, but the attackers quickly reuploaded it, along with screenshots of the video and the comments that were made. It took a massive toll on her mental health, and roughly 36 hours later, she hanged herself in a closet.

    Adriana Kuch died by suicide at midnight on February 3rd, and by the time she was discovered some six hours later, her body was likely already showing signs of rigor mortis.

    Police eventually charged the attackers with aggravated assault and conspiracy to commit aggravated assault. But the school’s response shocked everyone. They decided to blame her suicide on drugs and family issues, which was practically a slap in the face to her father. At her closed casket wake, there were multiple instances where a few stupid students decided to mock her family, and it took a call to the police to get them removed. This led to her funeral being cancelled, her body was cremated and as a result of this, she would never get a dignified memorial.

    By now, her case had gained national attention, and outlets such as CNN, NBC and even Fox were covering the development of the story. Reporters were stationed at strategic locations, such as outside the funeral home. When they interviewed her friends and family, they said that Adriana was a kind person at her heart, and she would never get into fights with anyone.

    In fact, she had even saved the life of a 9 year old girl during the summer of 2022, when she jumped into a swimming pool and lifted the girl up and out of the water when she was struggling to swim. The mother of the nine year old, when interviewed, revealed tearfully that she hadn't told her daughter about Adriana’s death at that time, and we will never know how she reacted to the tragic news.

    One year on, Adriana’s parents filed a formal lawsuit alleging wrongful death and gross negligence. They are seeking unspecified damages. As of today, the suit is still pending.

  • Park Safety Map for Joggers & Runners
    Use this park safety map to learn about the different areas of the park and their safety considerations.

    This is a general park safety map and all parks and outdoor environments may be different.

    Wooded Paths and Areas
    Wooded paths and dense areas of a park should generally be avoided if you're jogging because they possess natural seclusion and limited visibility.

    There is normally heavy tree cover, bushes and undergrowth, and winding trails which all lead to obscure sightlines and difficulty in using situational awareness and observing strangers from a distance.

    Due to their limited sunlight and rugged terrain, they are also often sparely populated which leads to less bystanders that can intervene if necessary.

    And the lack of lighting and quieter atmosphere provides cover for predators with bad intentions.

    Lastly, the uneven terrain and hidden roots or branches can be dangerous, making it harder to react quickly or change direction if you sense danger.

    Entrances and Exits
    Park entrances and exits can be dangerous for runners because they often involve transitioning through less populated isolated areas like parking lots or side streets.

    These "transition areas" are typically quieter, especially in the early morning or evening, making it easier for predators to stalk their victims. The lack of foot traffic and normal poor lighting also increases the risk of being targeted in these areas.

    Since people often let their guard down when arriving or leaving, runners may become more vulnerable in these areas. Staying alert, having your self-defense products ready, and avoiding lingering near entrances or exits can help reduce these risks.

    Waterfront or Lake Areas
    Waterfronts and lake areas can pose dangerous conditions for runners due to how desolate they can get and their natural terrain that's advantageous for predators.

    Running paths along lakes and waterways are often very desolate and contain few exit points since one whole side of the path is bordered by water. The other side is often bordered by dense woods or forest terrain which make running paths closed off with limited visibility.

    The variable terrain leading down from the normal ground to the water allows for favorable hiding spots for predators.

    The water's natural sounds and noises can also provide coverage for a predator.

    Well-Lit Roads & Paths
    Well-lit roads and paths are the best options for runners and joggers in parks at any hour of the day since they are normally the most populated and provide greater visibility even in darker settings.

    These well-lit areas are typically popular running routes and therefore discourage criminals from loitering in those areas. If something were to happen, there are normally bystanders or other runners in the area to call for help or personally intervene.

    Fields and Open Clearings
    Fields and open clearings are typically populated by families, children, and groups of adults, which make them great for running or jogging. The presence of recreational activities and gathering points increases the likelihood of bystanders and decreases the likelihood of violent crime.

    Open areas also provide a clear line of sight and greater visibility with less obstructions, which makes it easier to observe people from far away and evaluate their risk level.

    There's also more space to maneuver if someone were to present a risk, and you'd be provided with several different escape routes if necessary.

    Bridges and Tunnels
    Bridges and tunnels can be a potential area of concern for joggers due to their enclosed nature and limited visibility. A bridge or tunnel typically only has two ends and therefore only two escape routes if someone were to attack you.

    Bridges and tunnels also normally don't have much lighting or very poor lighting which hinders visibility. As mentioned earlier, the water's natural sounds provide coverage for a predator and added elements that can throw off a jogger.

    However, are they all created equal, and will they all be effective at self-defense?

    The answer is no.

    Some self-defense strikes and moves are intended to inflict significant damage and therefore require lots of windup and power, which may be ineffective if you are trying to stun the attacker and flee.

    Similarly, some strikes and moves are intended to target certain body parts, hold the other person down, or submit the opponent, and may not be effective in a practical real life situation where you're not trying to wrestle with your attacker on the street.

    Here are 4 effective self defense strikes that can be used in an everyday dangerous situation to fight off your attacker and flee the scene.

    1. Knee or Kick to Groin
    Kneeing or kicking a male attacker in the groin area can stun and incapacitate him, and give you time to escape the situation.

    The groin area of a male attacker is a very vulnerable and sensitive area that can cause a lot of pain, shock and loss of balance.

    The groin area is also reasonably within reach of your leg or foot and more accessible, making the strike easier to unleash and deliver with great force or speed.

    2. Strike to Face
    Striking an attacker in the face with a closed fist or open palm is very effective as it targets the eyes, nose, mouth, throat, and general face, which are all very sensitive areas on the human body.

    This strike can disorient the attacker by disrupting their vision, focus, and sensory organs, which will give you time to flee the scene.

    The eyes, nose and mouth are also very rarely covered by clothing or other objects, so they are completely exposed and hence more vulnerable and susceptible to damage.

    Lastly, an attacker's face is normally right in your line of sight, which increases the accuracy and precision of your strike.

    3. Reverse Foot Stomp
    The reverse foot stomp is a powerful self-defense strike performed when an attacker is holding you from behind.

    This move is effective because in these instances, your arms, hands and front of your body are normally subdued by the attacker, but your legs and feet are not.

    The best way to perform this move is to push back submit your body into the hold of the attacker so you can get closer to him, look down at their feet, and stomp as hard as you can on the center and toes of their foot.

    Ideally this should stun the attacker by causing a wave of pain which will loosen their grip and allow you time to escape.

    4. Reverse Elbow
    The reverse elbow is another self-defense move that can be performed if a predator has grabbed you from behind.

    While this move can be difficult to execute, if you are able to execute it properly, it can cause significant damage to the perpetrator and give you time to escape.

    The first reason why this move is effective is because you're again targeting the face which contains the eyes, nose, mouth, throat, and other sensitive facial areas. Any strike to this area can cause significant pain and disorientation.

    Secondly, the twisting motion of the reverse elbow can be very powerful and fast, even for someone not very strong, due to the torquing motion of the body.

    The reverse elbow is a great move if an attacker has grabbed you from behind and there's enough space between your body and their body to twist your elbow into their face.
