great white shark chasing after its prey – directly to where he is swimming.London-born photographer Euan Rannachan is on a mission to help break down the terrifying stereotypes of great white sharks.The 36-year-old adventurer, who also owns company Be A Shark, has been organising cage-diving trips in Guadalupe Island, Mexico, where he takes tourists cage-diving in shark-infested waters.In one video he posted in April, Euan gives nerve-wrecking sense to viewers of what it is like to be eaten by an apex predator."Could not love my toothy friends more," Euan teased in his post.The massive 13ft shark is seen going after a bait, which is attached by a hemp rope with no hook, as it emerges from deep water among other small fish.When Euan's team pulls the bait closer to the camera, the sea beast makes a rapid turn and opens her jaw, ready for a bite.Unfortunately the shark misses the target and ends up nearly hitting Euan.When she turns around and heads back to the bait, the photographer realises how lucky he is to get so up close to a great white shark.Speaking about how he felt in the water as the shark approached, he told Daily Star: "Every time I am in the water at the island it's always exciting. You never know what you might see, and each time its a little different.

The recent revelation that swoon-worthy Bridgerton actor Jonathan Bailey (accidentally) wore a modesty thong out to the pub after a day of filming in the buff had us thinking:Are modesty thongs the unsung heroes of the entertainment industry?For those who are unaware, the modesty thong—sometimes referred to as a modesty pouch, or patch—is a crucial piece of modern movie magic. The barely-there undergarments are frequently used on sets when actors are filming nude scenes, a solution for those who are, well, modest and prefer to not let it all hang out.Since consent is king (not to mention the increased need for on-set intimacy coordinators), these skin-colored pieces help keep everything in check.

Southern Baptist leaders have responded to the exposure of sexual abuse allegation mishandling within their organizations in a big way–but it looks like the full story may be even bigger.Rather than continue the cover-up, the Executive Committee for SBC has released a list of abusers with the Baptist church system, and it is crushingly extensive.Even though it only covers abuses from February of 2007 onward, the list is 205 pages long with anywhere from two to five entries on every page, meaning there have been hundreds and hundreds (and hundreds) of sexual abuse allegations within the Baptist church system reported just within the past fifteen years.Related: Turns out the Southern Baptist Convention is even worse than we thoughtThe document contains partially and/or fully redacted entries throughout (presumably based on pending litigation for some), but the unredacted text and sheer scale of entries are enough to paint of picture of the enormity of the documented abuses.A report on many of the instances was published in the Houston Chronicle in 2019, while a number of the accused abusers were still in active ministry.

KTVU. “However, if the Pride Board does not reverse its decision, I will join our city public safety departments that are not participating in the Pride Parade.“Let’s be very clear about who we are talking about: brave women and men who not only have the courage to put on their uniforms and go out and risk their lives every day to serve our city, but who also have the courage to do so as openly out women and men in uniform,” she added.Breed’s decision to opt out of the parade highlights a growing controversy regarding Pride events held in many major cities, where organizers have either sought to ban LGBTQ officers from marching in the parade altogether or to ban them from wearing uniforms while at Pride events.
