The warrior steel mace was an effective tool for hand-to-hand combat designed first around 10,000 years ago. It is blunt, built with uneven weight, and can be tricky to control. For those same reasons, Set for Set has designed a workout mace to add to your workout tool set.

We will follow the method of this tool and be blunt. This item is for those who have entered the world of unconventional workouts. If you are someone that enjoys crossfit, all body workouts, or is looking for a tool to hone smaller stabilizing muscles, you might enjoy incorporating this into your routine. The Warrior Steel Mace comes in two weights – 15 and 20 pounds and the website instructs new users with the following, “We suggest starting with the 15LB steel mace until you master movements such as 10 to 2, 360 swing, Gravedigger, and the Barbarian squat.” If you know what those workouts are, then this tool might be right for you.

Remember no boxes? Get this cigar gift instead and save for Black Friday

Nondescript cigar bundles for when were cigars invented.

You may remember that recently I talked about not buying cigar boxes as gifts. I stand by that for a few reasons. The biggest is that they can be expensive, even on sale, and a box includes a lot more cigars than a sampler or small bundle. That means, if you pick wrong, and it can happen, many of those cigars won't be enjoyed the way you'd want. Instead, it's best to go with a smaller sampler of five to ten cigars max. You'll still need to do a bit of research and find out what your cigar person likes to smoke. But a sampler gives them a bigger variety and you more chances to earn a hit.

Just to provide you an example, this five-cigar sampler with is only $47, normally $55. Or, the is only $77, normally $85. Each pack includes five different cigars, the perfect cigar gift. Head on over to Famous Smoke Shop to check out their big sampler sale for Black Friday and you're sure to find something in there.

‘Moana 2’ is set to smash through a flurry of box office records

The movie is one of three titles expected to lift the box office to its best weekend in years

Given how popular the first Moana has been on Disney+ since the streaming service first debuted, it probably shouldn't be surprising that the film's sequel is making a boatload of cash. Variety is reporting that the movie made $28 million on Thanksgiving Day, and that the movie is expected to make at least $175 million over the five-day holiday weekend, smashing through the records set by Frozen II in 2019 ($125 million).

Some rival studios apparently believe that $175 million is the low end of what the movie might make, suggesting that it could blow past $200 million. The movie has already earned $85.5 million in the U.S. alone and seems guaranteed to become one of the biggest hits of 2024.
