Germany, Court about Weapon Ban
The general arms ban for AfD members in North Rhine-Westphalia was overturned by the local higher administrative court based in Münster. The judgment was issued on 30 April and was announced on Tuesday. Previously, the black and green state government under Hendrik Wüst (CDU) decided that AfD members had to hand over their weapons. „The mere membership in an anti-constitutional but not prohibited association, on the other hand, is not sufficient for the realization of the rule of non-reliability under weapons law according to § 5 Paragraph 2 No. 2 WaffG “, the judges now judged unanimously.
The background to the decision was the general revocation of the „reliability “ stipulated in gun law according to § 5 Paragraph 2 No. 3 WaffG for AfD members.

Past Times
Security is overrated
In 1916, a striking photograph was taken at Glacier Point in Yosemite National Park that perfectly captured the spirit of adventure and innovation of the early 20th century. Arthur Clarence Pillsbury, a pioneering photographer known for pushing boundaries, stood confidently on the hood of a “Studebaker Six” automobile, perched daringly close to the edge of a sheer cliff. Behind him stretched the vast expanse of Yosemite Valley, a dramatic and breathtaking backdrop that underscored the boldness of the scene. The image was a powerful symbol of a new era—one where the automobile opened up America’s wild frontiers to exploration and awe.
Adding to the drama of the moment were 13 other individuals, calmly standing near the cliff’s edge, with some just a foot from the drop. A specially constructed trestle, built by local carpenters, had been designed to safely support the weight of the vehicle in such a perilous spot. At the time, the automobile was still a marvel of modern engineering, and to photograph one in such a remote and rugged setting was as much a stunt as it was a statement. Pillsbury's fearless positioning of both himself and the car illustrated how Americans were beginning to view nature not just as something to admire—but to conquer, traverse, and document.
This photograph became part of Pillsbury’s larger body of work, capturing the convergence of nature and technology during a transformative time in U.S. history. The "Studebaker Six" stood as a proud emblem of mobility and progress, while Yosemite remained a symbol of the wild, untamed beauty that defined the American West. Together, they told a story of ambition, daring, and the desire to merge human achievement with the splendor of the natural world—an era when the frontier spirit was being redefined by wheels, cameras, and courage.

Women
The first photo of a woman riding a BMW R68 is pretty famous, but few know the story. She is Marianne Weber, a Belgian motorcycle journalist very active in the 1950s, road testing the fastest bikes in the world with skill and verve...and very little safety gear. But, it was a different time, and as she tested on 1950s roads her riding gear was considered apropos. She cut a stylish figure, and clearly liked riding flat out!
Picture: testing a BMW R68 on Aug 15, 1952 near Waterloo, clocking 163km/h (100mph) on rural roads to prove thus was BMW’s first ‘ton up’ roadster.
