Breaking at the Wheel

A torture technique that involves tying an accused criminal to a wooden wheel and rolling it on hard, sharp, bumpy surface causing irreversible damage to bones and organs. Sometimes if the person was still alive, an excecutioner would hammer the brain with iron or drop the wheel in a lake. The bodies were often left on display to dismay criminals.

Breaking at the wheel is not a good way to go.

We are Breaking The Silence in the Silent War that our US Military Veterans are still fighting right here at home...

Lucky Break

A very lucky or beneficial chance or happening.

We were stuck in our investigation, but we had a lucky break when an anonymous source tipped us off to a possible culprit. "Hmph, lucky break," grumbled Mike, after his little sister got a hole-in-one on the very first hole of the course.
