There are two broad schools of design with pocket knives – either make them look so outrageously rugged that they instill fear in their enemies, or design them to be so slick and minimal that their owners treasure them for their collectible-worthy beauty. It’s rare to come across a knife that somehow manages both those things, but the Dragon Ridge holds that unique distinction. Being equally formidable-looking and minimalistic, the Dragon Ridge folding knife sports a skeletal handle modeled on the ribcage of a dragon (a hypothetical one of course). The Dragon Ridge’s handle comes machined from grade 5 titanium, with an M390 martensitic chromium steel blade that has the menacing sharpness of a dragon’s fangs. The knife balances its bare-bone skeletal design with an intimidating aesthetic rather beautifully, giving you essentially a modern EDC icon that’s visually stunning, ergonomically sound, and tactically capable of being your favorite pocket knife.

Hollywood child stardom has taken its toll on many actors through the decades. Lani O'Grady, for one, found fame in the 1970s on the TV family series, Eight is Enough. O'Grady followed in the footsteps of her brother, actor Don Grady, an original Mouseketeer and member of another popular TV family show: My Three Sons. Their mother, Mary B. Grady, was a talent agent who represented several child actors. But Lani, who would also eventually become an agent, died in 2001 just one week before what would have been her 47th birthday.

The only manual V8 RWD sedan left in America is a compelling proposition all on its own; the Cadillac CT5-V Blackwing is a reminder of what AMG used to be, and after being refreshed for 2025 with new looks and a 33-inch touchscreen, it's on par with German automakers in the interior tech department. The 2025 CT5-V Blackwing didn't get any performance enhancements when it was revealed at the beginning of this year, and we didn't think it needed any, but now Cadillac has addressed the issue with a new Precision Package that promises enhanced handling for all driving conditions.

Sandy Paws Rescue Inc., a foster-based rescue in Massachusetts, is still looking for a forever home for an adorable six-year-old French bulldog named Joannie. The local animal rescue explains: “Joannie was found as a stray extremely emaciated and less than half her current weight now. She was missing fur on her body, face and ears. She has been nursed back to health and is doing wonderfully. While her age and exact history is unknown, it is clear she has mothered more than enough litters in her short lifetime.”

The 2024 Lexus LC 500 is hands down the most beautiful sports coupe on the planet. With its chiseled front end, sweeping lines and flared rear fenders, it looks like a four-wheel rocket ship. The swoopy styling continues inside, where the driver and front seat passenger are wrapped in a luxury cockpit with practically all available advanced automotive technologies.
                The LC 500 is also one of the few sports coupes available as a convertible, and it looks smashing with the top down.

A bill quietly introduced this spring in the Colorado legislature to decriminalize the possession of drug paraphernalia obtained by harm reductionists has become law. As low-key as the legislation was introduced, the bill was signed into law without fanfare June 6. It garnered little to no media attention.

More dangerous substances are entering the Denver drug supply, Harm Reduction Action Center warned in a newsletter this week. “The Iron Law of Prohibition posits that as law enforcement becomes more intense, the potency of prohibited substances increases,” HRAC Executive Director Lisa Raville wrote in the newsletter. That is exactly what is happening, she said.

I have been with SlashGear for just under a year, during time which I have written about 25,000 words about various Pontiac models. The majority were muscle car-focused, like a piece about the importance of the 1964 GTO and another highlighting some interesting tidbits regarding the 1967 Firebird. Several of my Pontiac articles have focused on the Solstice, a two-seat roadster that came around in 2007, just before GM dumped the Pontiac division as part of its bankruptcy restructuring. In researching this quirky little convertible, I have developed quite a fondness for its rounded styling, which is evocative of Lightning McQueen, the animated star of the 2006 Pixar hit movie "Cars."
