Interestingly, there are quite a few tool and outdoor-related deals, including another Dewalt bundle on a cordless drill and impact driver. While that deal is slightly more expensive, we’ve found an excellent alternative. Greenworks, as you may know, is an affordable outdoor gear and tool brand that’s best known for its lawn and mowing options. But it also makes tools like this 24-volt cordless drill and impact combo kit. It comes with the drill, an impact drive, two batteries, a charger, and a bag. All of that is yours for just $105 but split in two, that’s basically $52 per drill. Regularly $150, that saves you about $50 on an already well-priced set. Like most of the Prime Day deals you’ll want to shop this one soon before it sells out.

Dive watches all seem to have a reputation for being round with a unidirectional bezel and generally a simple dial design. However, Ressence has turned this idea on its head with the new Ressence TYPE 5 L, a new iteration of the Ressence TYPE 5 that was introduced in 2015. This new Ressence watch is the stuff of dreams for fans of Lume as its entire dial is fully luminous; yes, the entire thing.

(MA) Meet Winks, an adorable and incredibly strong puppy with a heartbreaking origin. Winks was found unmoving on the side of a road with severe injuries. He had several very infected wounds and was barely holding on when his rescuers rushed him to the vet. Once there, x-rays revealed the horrifying truth that Winks had been shot numerous times around his face and neck. These injuries resulted in him having his eye removed. Despite that, Winks has made a miraculous and full recovery. He certainly does not let his handicap slow him down at his new foster home. Winks was truly given a second chance at life, and now all he needs is a family to call his own.

It’s summertime, so your lawn is growing fast, putting more work on you unless you hire someone to mow it. But there is an alternative: robotic lawnmowers.

Whether you do it or not, we probably don't have to convince you of the importance of core work. Building a strong core will help you in every area of your life. You use your core when you get up from a lying-down position or lift heavy bags, for instance. And it's also at the foundation of just about every exercise you do in the gym, regardless of what muscle is being targeted. And if you do regularly engage your core (good for your!), your next step is to add the right weighted ab exercises to your routine.

A dangerous drug that is being mixed into fentanyl is causing those who inject it to develop a rash of sores that resembles a case of flesh-eating bacteria. People experiencing homelessness around Denver can sometimes be seen with these bloody, weeping wounds. I recently mentioned this phenomenon to a fentanyl user who told me about the xylazine connection.
