    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.

  • TeekPay Funding for $20 Joining Bonus and $20 Referral Reward

    Huge FREE!

    Greetings Executives, Sign up for the new TEEKPAY app now being launched, below here:

    https://teekpay.com/abidi/join

    At TeekPay, we’ve designed a rewarding system to give back to our users from day one. The $20 joining bonus and $20 referral reward are part of our mission to share profits and encourage community growth.

    How Do We Fund This?

    TeekPay generates revenue from transaction fees and subscription products. Every time a user moves money, converts currency, or pays for goods, a small fee is collected. These fees, along with profits from other services, are pooled to fund the bonuses. Essentially, every profit TeekPay makes is shared with the community, so every referral is paid back through the success of the platform.

    Why Is This Exciting for You?

    There’s no cost to join or refer people to TeekPay, but the earlier you join and the more people you refer, the more you stand to earn. It’s simple: the larger the community grows, the more revenue is shared, and you can start earning from every transaction your referrals make.

    A Comparison with WhatsApp

    Think about WhatsApp, which sold for $22 billion when it had only 450 million users. At the time, each WhatsApp user was worth about $48. But a TeekPay user is worth ten times more because our users are directly involved in banking, moving money, and paying for goods. Every transaction contributes a percentage back to the community, meaning TeekPay users generate revenue over time, unlike WhatsApp where the user value was static.

    Lifetime Revenue from Referrals

    When you refer someone to TeekPay, it’s not a one-time bonus. You’ll earn lifetime revenue from every person you bring onto the platform. As TeekPay moves from beta (test phase) to live, withdrawals will open, and you’ll begin receiving profits from all the transactions happening across the platform.

    This is like being part of Binance or PayPal at the very beginning, except this time, you’re sharing in the profits. TeekPay operates on the most simple and accessible platforms—WhatsApp, and now even Telegram, with plans to expand to Kakao.

    The Opportunity

    The opportunity is here for everyone. The earlier you join and the more people you refer, the more you benefit as TeekPay grows. We are all TeekPay, and together, we’ll profit from every transaction made on the platform.

    How to Withdraw

    You will be able to withdraw once the project is fully live and out of Beta stage.

    A new app made easy by one of Google's founders that will pay HUGE money.

  • In order to bring about external change, it is essential to undergo internal transformation. Embracing the person God intended you to be requires shedding the false identity you have assumed. It all starts with changing your perception of yourself, because your perception directly influences your thoughts and beliefs. Your beliefs, in turn, shape the outcomes you experience in life. The transformative power of faith is truly miraculous. With an unwavering determination to succeed, I am confident you will.
