How effective is capital punishment as a deterrent for crime?

Jan de Koning | Editor at Rugby365

The United Rugby Championship is in for an entertaining conclusion as just six points separate sixth and 10th place in the table.

In the penultimate round before the play-offs, there are two fixtures on Friday.

Zebre host Scarlets in Italy, while the match of the evening sees Munster travel to Scotland to take on Edinburgh.

The reigning champions are currently third on the table with 58 points and will want to cement their spot in the top four when they face Sean Everitt’s side.

Getting one over a desperate and determined Edinburgh will also boost their chances of a top-two ending.

However, it will be easier said than done as Edinburgh also have a lot at stake. They are seventh with 48 points and a defeat could see them overtaken by Connacht who face Stormers on Saturday.

A win on the other hand will keep their knockout fate in their own hands.

Basil Manuel | Executive Director of Naptosa 

The National Assembly has adopted and passed the amended Basic Education Laws Amendment Bill, sending it off to the desk of President Cyril Ramaphosa to be signed into law.

The NA passed the bill after it was adopted by the Portfolio Committee on Basic Education on Wednesday (15 May), accepting the amendments made at the National Council of Provinces.

The NCOP adopted the bill on Tuesday (14 May) after deferring the bill last week on a technicality.

The passed bill, the amended D-bill, was adopted by all provinces except the Western Cape.

Several key issues were raised in the processing of the bill by the provinces—particularly around language and admission policies—which led to further amendments to the laws by the Select Committee on Education and Technology, Sport, Arts and Culture.

This resulted in the D-bill, which has now been passed by the National Assembly and sent to Ramaphosa for assent.

So, before beginning a weight lifting routine, it is essential to learn the proper form for each exercise. This can be done by working with a personal trainer, watching videos online or reading instructional materials.

Proper weightlifting form is essential for maximizing the benefits of weightlifting while minimizing the risk of injury. By learning the proper form and monitoring your technique during the exercises, you can ensure that your weightlifting routine is safe, effective and enjoyable.
