Why nose breathing will make you a better athlete – and might save your marriage!
Breathing is normally something we don't consider much. It's an automatic involuntary function, but does it make any difference to breathe through our nose or mouth? Do we all just breathe the same? How we breathe really does make a difference!
Everyone has sprained an ankle on one or more occasions. In fact, spraining your ankle is the most common injury amongst physically active people.
Shoulder Dislocation Surgery – The Latarjet Procedure
This surgical procedure is used to improve recurrent shoulder dislocations. First described by a French surgeon (hence the name!) in the 1950s, this operation aims to address the bony loss and instability typically associated with more serious dislocations. This operation is becoming more popular in rugby and footy athletes, with AFL stars such as Nat Fyfe, Gary Ablett and West Coast ruckman Scott Lycett choosing Latarjet.

Meanwhile, Leonard struggles to be supportive of Penny after she quits her job, and Bernadette seeks Stuart's help in replacing one of Howard's comic books, on THE BIG BANG THEORY, Thursday, Jan. 9 (8:00 – 8:31 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network.

In August 2004, all eyes were on Hurricane Charley as it pounded Punta Gorda, a small town on Florida's Gulf Coast. In the midst of the tempest, one Florida man was holed up in a hotel room, seeking shelter from the storm and hiding from his past. Dateline NBC's Josh Mankiewciz reports.
>>> it's a tale of love turned lethal featuring an adoring wife, a pageant queen .
>> she was a whole lot of gorgeous woman.
>> and at center stage , a charismatic guitar hero.
>> just charming. you know, everybody loved him. he was playing for quite some time.
>> two women, one man. a love triangle with sharp edges.
>> jim at one point had told me that he wanted to know what it felt like to kill somebody.
>> in this twisted game of hearts, how many would have to pay the price?
>> she called and let me know that russ was dead.
>> how far would things go?
>> i looked in her eyes and i mean, she's evil. she is evil.
>> a man hunt would stretch from the northwest down to mexico and run smack into mother nature .
>> your suspect is quite literally in the wind.
>> i'm lester holt and this is "dateline." here's josh mankiewicz .
>>> love, according to the song writers, is a many splendored thing.
>> it involves talented and beautiful people .
>> smart people , whose obsessions made them do stupid things. passionate people caught in an emotional whirlwind.
>> and finally, innocent people who paid the price when those passions ran amok.
>> it all began, of course, on a dark and stormy night .
>> they now expect what they're calling a worst-case scenario.
>> it was august 2004 , friday the 13th. hurricane charlie was hammering florida 's gulf coast , particularly the coastal city of punt punta goreda.
>> the message is urgency and safety.
>> get to safety and hunker down.
>> that night jean huden thought her life was quite literally in shambles.
>> i stayed and rode the hurricane out by myself in the house and watched my house come apart around my ears.
>> 60 miles to the south jean's husband jim was holed up in a hotel, hiding, not from the storm, but from his past.
>> he was scared so he figured he'd get while the getting was good.
>> as soon as the worst of the storm had blown over jean says she joined her panicked husband. they ordered pizza and turned on the tv.
>> the losses are substantial.
>> but jean couldn't concentrate on the hurricane news. the personal storm that was wrecking her marriage and ruining her life took precedence.
>> it was the big tensionfest. we talked and asked a lot of questions, you know? why? what were you thinking? what are you going to do now?
>> it was a messy situation, betrayal, deception, dissertion, the usual menu of dysfunction that all too often falls under the category of another woman, but there was more to it than that. much more.
>> a homicide investigation was at stake, one that just days earlier had led detective mark blumberg from the isle of washington all of the way to punta gorda , florida . he was hot on the trail of a potential suspect, and then came the hurricane.
>> i didn't think he was going to stick around for us to come back.
>> so the hurricane comes and goes and your suspect is quite literally in the wind.
>> for detective clumber, the twisted trail that led him from washington to south florida began just months earlier just after christmas 2003 . a geotracker, a small suv had been spotted in a secluded driveway in a remote section of whidbey island , passenger door open and light on.
>> the first thought was suicide, but on initial investigation they couldn't find a weapon.
>> standing in the damp, december cold, the detective took stock. the body inside appeared to have been dead for 24 hours . i.d. found in the glove box indicated the dead man was named russel douglas , a rag ged hole between his eyes had frozen his age at 32.
>> there was a robbery, a whole lot of stuff left behind in the car that didn't make sense.
>> just inside the driver's side door an empty .380 caliber shell casing lay on the floor. the detective thought it was a curious place for a homicide.
>> near the end of a dead-end road parked into bushes as though he meant to be there with his car in gear, his emergency brake on and casually dressed in flip-flops.
>> sounds like he was there to meet someone.
>> that was the only thing that really made sense to us.
>> but who? the detective hoped russel douglas ' widow brenna douglas might shed some light on that, but that night when he told her the father of had her two children had been murdered the detective says he got a strange feeling.
>> i never tried to judge how people are going react when i tell them thing, but her response wasn't what i expected.
>> as in not emotional enough?
>> she wasn't shocked, at least not visually shocked. it was a bit matter of fact and that did leave us at least wondering when we walked out of the house. yes.
>> and so brenna douglas , as the wives of murdered men often do, became a person of interest, the domestic situation seemed unsettled.
>> they were separated. russel was living in an apartment in renton. according to brenna they were trying to work it out and talking about getting back together.
>> in fact, the new widow told the detectives that her husband had spent the holidays with her and the kids.
>> she said the last time she saw him was the morning of december 26th . he left the house somewhere mid-morning and she thought he was going to run some errands.
>> brenna douglas have an alibi?
>> she didn't need an alibi at the time we went to talk to her. it was basically a death notification. she was able to answer our questions for us.
>> who didn't like russel douglas ? nobody could think of someone who really truly didn't like him.
>> as winter turned to spring, the detectives' investigation seemed to be going nowhere , but a routine check of the numbers in russel douglas ' cell phone had yielded a tiny clue.
>> there were a few phone calls to a number with a las vegas area code and we made a phone call to that number. there was no answer. it went to an answering machine.
>> was it a cell phone voice mail or a person's voice?
>> it was a cell phone voice mail for a woman named peggy .
>> peggy . that's a name you will hear again. the detective made a mental note to have that number traced, but within minutes of hanging up his phone rang.
>> and there was a female who said she had gotten a phone call from that number and she identified herself as peggy thomas. explained that she was a friend of brenna and russel douglas .
>> peggy douglas told the detectives she'd been visiting friends over the holidays and explained that she had simply contacted russel in order to pass along a present for brenna .
>> she answered all of my questions to my satisfaction. there was nothing about that phone call that made me include her in the suspect list.
>> but then again, the detective 's suspect list was essentially a blank page . there were no names on it from florida or nevada or new mexico or any of the other places this investigation would eventually lead him, at least not yet.
>>> chapter one of this whodunit closes with more questions than answers. detectives don't even know who the major characters are. so the investigation begins close to home with the dead man's on-again/off-again wife.
>> you don't want to believe the mother of your grandkids would ever be a suspect.

Horses To Follow » Rock Noir
Rock Noir
Rock Noir disappointed in finishing a distant third behind Fiendish Flame at Bangor on Wednesday, he just stopped quickly on exiting the back straight after appearing to travel well. There has to be a question mark over him as a result, but it was just too bad a performance to be true, and he remains a horse of some interest. On his previous run, in winning a good novices' chase run over two miles and a furlong at Exeter on Haldon Gold Cup day, he put in a performance that was somewhere near the best of his form in France for the first time in Britain. He was a bit free in the early stages of that race, but it was nothing that AP McCoy couldn't deal with, and he jumped more than adequately behind the leaders. He had obviously done some intensive schooling at Jackdaws Castle since his chase debut at Huntingdon in early October where he was very keen and did not jump fluently at all.
The second and third here, Phidippides and Qozak, are very useful sorts, with Phidippides in particular having the potential to go a long way over fences. It always looked like Rock Noir had that one's measure up the straight but he had to work quite hard after the last as the Evan Williams-trained horse did not give up. Encouragingly for the front two, they pulled 19 lengths clear of the 146-rated hurdler Qozak who seemed to have no immediate excuse. The time of the race was only 3.6 seconds slower than the time that Tchico Polos clocked in the Haldon Gold Cup in which there were more than twice as many runners as in Rock Noir's race and in which they flew from early.
Winner of five races on the bounce at Auteuil last year after a debut second-place finish, beating Jumbo Rio in the last of them, a Grade 1 four-year-old hurdle, Rock Noir was a high-profile recruit to JP McManus's team last year. Such was the regard in which he was held, he was sent off as short as 9/1 for the County Hurdle despite being rated 152, burdened with 11st 12lb and it being his first run for four months (his first in Britain) and his first on a lively surface. Although he was ultimately well beaten at Cheltenham, the confidence in him spoke for itself. The Jonjo O'Neill gelding is only five and he could still take high order over fences this season.

A competitive swimmer and water polo player, Chantal Swart was always active and outdoorsy. But after having two miscarriages, her doctor suggested she stop exercising in order to carry her next child to term. Two months later, she was pregnant once more and followed her doctor's orders, ceasing all activity. Thankfully, her son Jaiden was born nine months later, but because of her inactivity, Swart had swelled up to 178 pounds.
Soon after Jaiden was born, they discovered he had a genetic eye disorder, and Swart was thrown into a hectic world of doctors, tests and baby needs. To throw salt in the wound, her new birth-control medication caused her to overeat, and four years later, she weighed more than she did during her full-term pregnancy. "I ate cake, cookies, chocolate, fried food — I was a walking garbage can," she remembers.
Jiggly bits and all, Swart headed to the gym where she shocked herself by failing miserably at even the simplest things. "I couldn't even do one push-up, and it was a disaster," she says. But instead of giving up, she made every session an adventure, each week trying to better herself, and in the process learning forgiveness of the sins of cheating on her diet or skipping a workout. In the middle of it all, she got divorced, but she refused to spiral downward as a result; rather, she buoyed herself up and used the adversity as fuel for training. Swart also revamped her diet, eating smaller meals throughout the day and cooking without oil.
It took her a year to reach her fighting weight, but she continued to train with the new goal of building lean muscle to one day get onstage. "My brother's girlfriend got me started with that, and now I am competing nationally and internationally in figure competitions," she says. Her most recent showing: the 2015 Arnold Figure International. "I finally found my niche," she says.

Matt Nagy responds to Patrick Mahomes' claims about Chiefs' pre-draft visit

The NFL has had Deflategate and Spygate. Do now we have Mahomesgate or Nagygate?
On Thursday, Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes appeared on Travis and Jason Kelce's "New Heights" podcast, revealing some pretty crazy news about his pre-draft top-30 visit with the Chiefs.
According to Mahomes, Kansas City's quarterbacks coach Matt Nagy — who at that time was the team's offensive coordinator — so badly wanted the Chiefs to draft Mahomes that the night before the Texas Tech quarterback met with the Chiefs coaching staff, Nagy gave him a list of the plays that head coach Andy Reid was going to ask him about.
Here's how Mahomes recounted the story to the Kelce brothers:
"Matt Nagy was the offensive coordinator then, and he really liked me, so he gave me the plays they were going to go over the night before. Coach Reid is finding this out here, live on the New Heights podcast.
"Of course, I crushed the meeting," says Mahomes proudly, "I stayed up all night studying those plays — and the rest is history."
"If y'all let me go 12 or below I'm gonna get drafted by someone else"
These @PatrickMahomes draft stories are mind-blowing

— New Heights (@newheightshow) December 1, 2022
So that's Mahomes' side of the story. But is it true?
Did Nagy engage in a Machiavellian plot to ensure that Mahomes would win over Reid — solidifying himself as Kansas City's first-round draft pick and quarterback of the future?
During a press appearance on Thursday, Nagy said that he wasn't the only one who was high on Mahomes. Reid and general manager Brett Veach — then the team's co-director of player personnel — were also on board, along with then-GM John Dorsey.
"It's always a unique and fun process," Nagy told reporters. "Every year, you're prepping for different positions and different players, etc. It's such a lengthy and grueling process. [But] I think it's very safe to say there was a major consensus in our building of who we liked.
"I just know that Coach Reid and Veach and a lot of other people in that building really liked Patrick — including myself... Everybody has a process of what they go through. For us, we were able to go through some plays. Coach has a phenomenal process of evaluation of many different positions — but in particular, I think his process of evaluating quarterbacks is awesome— and that was just a part of the process."
Reporters didn't like that answer, so Nagy was pressed again: did he give Mahomes the list of plays?
"Yeah, maybe a little bit," laughed Nagy.
He then said that during that draft process, they had looked at quite a few quarterbacks — but Mahomes was the one who stood out during Reid's process for evaluating quarterbacks.
"I thought Patrick did a hell of a job on the test," said Nagy. "Coach was giving him good questions on the plays — and Patrick? He knew what he was doing. It was impressive."
Nagy again made it clear: he wasn't the only one who wanted Mahomes.
"I know how much they loved him [in the] pre-draft process," said Nagy. "We were all so much into him — I mean, Coach and Veach and Dorse — all of these guys."
But were there co-conspirators? Did anyone else know that Mahomes knew so much beforehand?
"Some may have known a little bit," said Nagy. "Some may have not."

How Student Loans Can Impact Your Financial Future | Welker & Associates Inc.
When I was growing up, basically the only option you had as a high school graduate was to go to post-secondary school. For many people, that was the only option even if you didn't know what you "wanted to be when you grew up". The basic thinking was that if you had a degree, it showed that you were driven and that you could accomplish something. Many post-secondary graduates would then go into the workforce in an area that they weren't even educated in. But it didn't matter. They had a degree so it was expected that they would succeed.
Unfortunately, it seems like that is no longer the case. The workforce is much more cutthroat and it is becoming increasingly more difficult to begin a career straight out of college or university.
On top of that, if you have taken on student loans in order to get a degree or diploma, it is expected that you start making payments on those loans when you are six-months removed from being a student (so your first repayment will be at the end of the seventh month after leaving school). The problem is, many students are still struggling financially at this point. Some have landed in a very entry-level position with the hopes of moving up in ranks. But in the meantime, they are making the minimum. Others haven't found a job in their "industry" yet so they are working part-time at a low paying gig while they search for a job that they desire. And for others, they are unemployed with zero income.
So, you can see why it's important to know what you're getting yourself into before you take out a student loan.
If you have graduated and find that you cannot pay your student loan, my advice is to seek help before you find yourself drowning in the cycle of debt.
If you are finding it difficult to make your monthly federal student loan payments, you are able to apply to have your financial situation reviewed. The government will assess what you are able to afford, based on factors such as income and family size, to contribute towards your student loan on a monthly basis. In some cases, borrowers may not have to make any student loan payments until their income increases. To complete your Repayment Assistance Plan application you will need to provide your Total Gross Monthly Family Income and if, applicable, your spouse/common-law partner's Total Gross Monthly Family Income. You may also need to provide information on your government student loans. If you do not have this information on hand, you can still start and save your application, then return to it later. To find out how to file an application log onto your NSLSC account and review your Repayment Options.
Most people who borrowed money to fund their education want to repay the debt; they just may need more time, or a more efficient plan, to do so. A consumer proposal allows you to negotiate to reduce the amount of debt you owe and consolidate the remaining outstanding debt into one manageable monthly payment. Student loan debt can only be included in a consumer proposal if you have been out of school for seven years. If that's not the case, a consumer proposal may still be a viable option as it makes your monthly debt more manageable and may allow you to afford to pay your student loan payments.
If you've been out of school for seven years and are still having trouble taking control of your debt, you may consider filing for bankruptcy. In doing so, you will be discharged from your student loan debt.
If you haven't been out of school for seven years, the same rule applies for bankruptcy as it does for a consumer proposal. Student loan debt cannot be included in a bankruptcy.
If you're struggling with student loan debt, contact us today for a free, no-obligation consultation.


A state license is required in the state of North Carolina to install heating and air conditioning equipment. The state of North Carolina is one of the toughest license governing bodies because of the extreme amounts of poor craftsmanship cases that have been reported to them. Unlicensed contractors are unaccountable to regulators and are often unavailable if problems arise from a poor installation.
2. How long has the company been in business (under the same name)?
According to the North Carolina Business and Project Management Manual, 85% of the mechanical contracting companies that get into business fail in the first five years. As a result of them going out of business it is almost impossible to get a failed company to honor a warranty. Beware of companies that close due to poor reputation and reopen with a new name.
3. Does the company offer a money back guarantee?
Often a consumer only gets to experience one side of the heating and air company they choose to replace their equipment. The consumer may have chosen a company based on the impression they got from a salesman, then later when they have to deal with a faulty installation and then the companies service department that lacks both professionalism and product knowledge needed to quickly fix your problem. The best way to significantly reduce your liability is to request in writing a 100% Money Back Guarantee (2 YEARS), so that if you do run into some unmanageable problem you can have them give you your money back. This is the most expensive appliance in your home, why not protect your investment?
4. Does the contractor offer a lemon guarantee?
5. Is the contractors staff background checked and drug tested?
Most consumers do not think of this being a problem when they are choosing a contract or to work in their home. The reality is they should be aware of this. One of the most widely taught trades, within the prison system today is heating and air conditioning repair. Also based on the unfortunate incident in Florida, five women legislators from the State of Georgia have sponsored a bill that would require employers to conduct criminal background checks on workers before they would be allowed to enter the home. The sponsors wrote the bill with women in mind, since women are more likely than men to be home alone for service calls. For more information on this law, Click Here. Your families safety is very important so you just might want to know who is entering your home.
6. Does the contractor perform a load calculation to determine the proper size of the equipment they will install?
Good contractors understand the importance of properly sizing the heating and cooling equipment to ensure maximum comfort and to ensure proper power usage. "NOT too big and NOT too small." This process is not done by the rule of thumb method or the square foot method. Improperly sized heating and cooling systems are all too common in North Carolina. This creates hot and cold spots in the home, it causes the home to be too moist or too dry and it can significantly increase your utility bill. Just because a manufacturer labels their equipment with an efficiency rating doesnt mean it works like they want it to once it has been installed.
7. Does the contractor provide an "ARI Performance Certification"?
One of the most unrecognized major problems with a heating and cooling system is the equipment match. In many cases the reason the new system is using more energy, doesnt heat and cool your home quite like the old system did is because the new equipment that was designed to work the way it is installed. To insure this never happens to you, always request an ARI (Air-Conditioning and Refrigeration Institute) Performance Certification" to insure you are getting what you are paying for.
8. Does the contractor inspect the duct system before he matches it with a new heating and cooling system?
Approximately 70% of the duct systems that are installed in residential homes are not sized correctly to deliver the proper conditioned air into the home. Most of the time the duct system is too small which increases the resistance on the equipment. This most certainly will lower the efficiency of the equipment by making it run longer to satisfy the thermostat. Also the system will have increased service problems and it has been known to reduce the life of the system by as much as 4 years.
9. Does the contractor offer financing?
You may not need financing, but you still should look for companies that offer it because it shows concern for affordability and shows the company can meet the qualifications to offer financing.
There is a wide variety of options that exist for heating and cooling your home. A good company will present you with choices in efficiency, refrigerant type, filtration, controls and financing. They will also present these choices in a way that you are able to make an informed and educated decision.
11. Are the companies service vehicles clean and well maintained?
The condition of a contractors service vehicles is an indicator of the way the technician will take care of your home.
12. Does the contractor have a true 24 hour 7 day a week emergency service?
A good contractor will be available to their customers in the event of an emergency, any time of day. It is also important to know that when you do call you arent calling into a service technicians pager or voice mail. By being able to talk to a live person, it helps escalate the problem to an on-duty manager in order to promptly handle a problem.


If you suffer from iron deficiency anemia you will feel bad tempered, tired and feel weak as a result. This type of anemia is caused by a reduction in the amount of red blood cells caused by insufficient iron. Your body is not able to make enough haemoglobin. Statistics show 3% of males, 20% of females and 50% of women who are pregnant do not have enough iron in their body. For many people there is a simple solution to correct this. Eat more from an iron rich foods list.
The small intestine generally absorbs the iron from the iron rich foods list. Spinach along with other iron rich foods is excellent in raising iron levels. So the risk of iron deficiency anemia is reduced.
Iron rich foods can be found in two forms. One is heme and the other nonheme. Heme iron comes from haemoglobin. This can be found in animal foods which initially contained haemoglobin. Examples are fish, poultry and red meats. More iron is absorbed from food from heme sources.
The following foods are an excellent source of heme iron. 3.5 milligrams per serving: 3oz oysters, 3oz liver (chicken or beef), 3oz molluscs and clams. 2.1 milligrams or above per serving: 3oz cooked beef or turkey, 3oz canned sardines in oil. 0.7 milligrams or above per serving: 3oz veal, chicken or ham. 3oz tuna, perch, haddock, halibut or salmon.
This type of iron is added to iron-enriched and iron-fortified foods. Spinach, beans and lentils and other plant foods are nonheme iron. Dietary iron is mainly nonheme iron which the body doesn't absorb that efficiently.
3.5 milligrams per serving: Iron fortified breakfast cereals.
A half cupful of canned red kidney beans, split peas, chickpeas or lima beans.
There are certain foods which can help the body absorb iron. But there are others which can hamper the absorption. Don't drink tea or coffee or foods or drinks rich in calcium with meals which are rich in iron.
Eat nonheme iron foods with a good source of vitamin C, for example, strawberries, broccoli, orange juice, or food from poultry, fish and meat.
If you feel you are not getting enough iron from your iron rich foods list, it may be you will need to take an iron supplement. Speak with your doctor before taking any supplements to find out the exact dose and follow all instructions.
Iron is excreted from the body in very small amounts and can build up in organs and body tissue when the spleen, bone marrow and liver are full. Poisoning from iron in food is very rare, but lethal overdoses from iron supplements are possible.


"Do you hear me? I'm talking to you. Across the water across the deep blue ocean. Under the open sky, oh my, baby I'm trying. Boy I hear you in my dreams, I feel your whisper across the sea. I keep you with me in my heart. You make it easier when life gets hard. I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend. Lucky to have been where I have been. Lucky to be coming home again. Ooh ooh ooh. They don't know how long it takes, Waiting for a love like this. Every time we say goodbye, I wish we had one more kiss. I'll wait for you I promise you, I will. I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend. Lucky to have been where I have been. Lucky to be coming home again. Lucky we're in love in every way. Lucky to have stayed where we have stayed. Lucky to be coming home someday. And so I'm sailing through the sea, To an island where we'll meet. You'll hear the music fill the air, I'll put a flower in your hair. Though the breezes through trees, Move so pretty you're all I see. As the world keeps spinning 'round, You hold me right here, right now. I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend. Lucky to have been where I have been. Lucky to be coming home again. I'm lucky we're in love in every way. Lucky to have stayed where we have stayed. Lucky to be coming home someday. Ooh ooh ooh. I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend! ♡"

When you first approach someone your goal is not to sign people us right away. Approach people with the pure intention of becoming a friend and you will be amazed what happens.
Why is this person messaging me?
What do you do? (unless they are clearly showing what they do on their profile) Use common sense and be aware to make sure your approach makes sense.
What are some of the mistakes people make?
Rule of Thumb: If you can take the message and copy and paste it to a bunch of people it is not nearly personal enough.
Make a decision to go all in and do not give yourself a way out. Enjoy the process.
Our biggest breakthroughs come right after our biggest breakdowns.


Self Description: I describe myself as a calm woman, my zodiac sign is pisces, and pisces are very calm. But I also have my fun side, I like to smile and enjoy the moment. I really like to read about metaphysics and try to apply it to my life. I like harmony in my home and the people that bring happiness to my life. In a relationship I give a lot, I am very romantic and like to make and give surprises. I am very loyal. I appreciate my partner a lot so that each day he feels happy to be by my side. Let me surprise you!
Comments: I am looking for a man who knows how to accompany me in life. I do not want a blue prince, I want a warrior who enjoys going out to earn a living every day, who enjoys his home and who can please me in every way.

Gola Chefe, Ethiopia, Africa
Clean Water, New Life: Hana's Story
"With your help, my wish for clean water has come true, and we're able to have lasting change," Hana said.
With her new, safe water just steps from her home, Hana's family is delighted. She, her husband, and their five children live in Gola Chefe village, Ethiopia, a community that has just received safe water from Lifewater.
Now that they have safe water, a place to wash their hands, bathe whenever they want to, bathrooms of their own, and newfound health, so much has changed.
"The water is as transparent as new glass and sweet to drink," Hana said.
Before, when the family ran out of drinking water for the day, their only choice was to wait until the next morning. The faraway community only allowed them to draw once. Today, they have safe water in abundance.
"I used to be ashamed of sitting in class wearing clothes washed with the dirty water from the pond as it smelled bad," Amarech, Hana's daughter said. "Now, it's not the same, and I'm free."
Hana and her husband are able to work and save more money, and they've already purchased materials to improve their home.
Referencing the pandemic, Hana said, "Now, we are full of confidence even to fight off coronavirus since we can wash our hands properly with clean and available water always."
Hana's family is thriving as God intends and full of hope for their futures.
"I always pray God will reach those who helped us with his endless blessings," Hana said.
With safe water and sanitation practices, families like Hana's are transformed. You can be a part of a transformation story. Sponsor a water project today, and follow along to see your impact.
Life in Gola Chefe: Hana's Story
The daily visit to the spring is both a source of hope for Hana Dukale and an illustration of her family's great need.
Hana, her husband Abebe, and their five children live in Gola Chefe village.
Two years ago, Lifewater donors helped construct a safe water point in a village two hours from Abebe's home. The village allows Abebe and her neighbors to draw from their well once a day, and the young mother treasures the daily visit.
However, the safe water is only used for drinking. For washing, laundry, and all other needs, the family draws from the pond near their home.
Hana and her husband are determined to see their children through primary school; growing up, neither completed 8th grade. The long walk for water means Hana's children are late for class every week, and they are falling behind their peers.
They have hopes and dreams of their own, and Hana believes safe water will help them accomplish them.
"Our plan as a family is to change our grass roof house to corrugated iron roof, but it's still impossible because we are exposed to unexpected costs due to unsafe water," she said.
With safe water, Hana's family will be able to get safe drinking water steps from their home, bathe without fear, and wash their hands at critical times to avoid the spread of disease.
"When we saw our neighboring village get safe water, I felt encouraged because maybe we too can save the time and cost lost in search of safe water," she said. "I wish to get safe water in my village."
You can help Gola Chefe village today. Your gift will provide health training for each household, plus a new, safe water source near their village.
Sponsor Gola Chefe village today.
Gola Chefe is in a very remote region of Ethiopia
Here's the Plan for Gola Chefe:
Gola Chefe has selected water committee members to manage the safe village water source. Forming a water committee is a key step toward establishing a safe water source in a village. Committees are made up of local men and women who manage the well and collect fees, ensuring the community's investment lasts for generations to come.
Work is officially underway to build a new water source for Gola Chefe village. Our local teams are using technology appropriate to the region and geography to ensure the new water source is sustainable.
Great news! Gola Chefe is now a certified Healthy Village. That means the safe water source is complete and more than 90% of the community's homes are healthy. That is a new future for 312 children and families.

Similarity solutions of a multidimensional replicator dynamics integrodifferential equation

We consider a nonlinear degenerate parabolic equation containing a nonlocal term, where the spatial variable $x$ belongs to $\mathbb{R}^d$, $d \geq 2$. The equation serves as a replicator dynamics model where the set of strategies is $\mathbb{R}^d$ (hence a continuum). In our model the payoff operator (which is the continuous analog of the payoff matrix) is nonsymmetric and, also, evolves with time. We are interested in solutions $u(t, x)$ of our equation which are positive and their integral (with respect to $x$) over the whole space $\mathbb{R}^d$ is $1$, for any $t > 0$. These solutions, being probability densities, can serve as time-evolving mixed strategies of a player. We show that for our model there is an one-parameter family of self-similar such solutions $u(t, x)$, all approaching the Dirac delta function $\delta(x)$ as $t \to 0^+$. The present work extends our earlier work [11] which dealt with the case $d=1$.
Keywords: continuum set of strategies, self--similar solutions., Replicator dynamics, payoff operator.

In 1994, Warren G & Nate Dogg brought the other gifted components of 213 to the forefront with "Regulate." On Warren's Def Jam Records debut, and Death Row Records' Above The Rim soundtrack (Nate's label), the song reverberated in some stylish G-Funk storytelling. With its pounding bassline, weed-scented coolness, and smooth Rap-meets-R&B flavor, the record was built around Michael McDonald's "I Keep Forgettin'." The 1980s got a clever facelift, and the Eastside of Long Beach City went global.
Now, Regulate…G-Funk Era II is upon us.
2015's "My House" applies this formula. Four years removed from Nate's death, Warren builds a "G-Child" bassline around an interpolation of Madness' "Our House." This new one has less in common than the original, but still weaves in the chorus in a playful, simplistic groove.
Is Hip-Hop needs its posthumous Nate Dogg moment, is "Our House" it?

9 of the top female grillers to follow
September 21, 2020 September 28, 2020 / By Christy Birmingham-Reyes
Check out these nine women of barbecue who are tearing apart the stereotype that guys are better pitmasters! Let's give the floor to today's top female grillers.
Mastering the grill is an art form
Grilling is one of the most exciting cooking skills to master. There's something special about grilling food over flames to juicy, tender perfection, and the BBQ is incredibly versatile, good for everything from roasting to baking if you have the right tools and knowledge.
Some of the most exciting grill masters on the scene are women. They've turned the notion that grilling is a man's job on its head, serving up delicious food with a deft, skilled touch.
Follow these women online or on social media, and you'll gain a lot of grilling wisdom, whether you're an expert or just learning how to grill. Here are some of the top female BBQers you definitely want to follow:
Helen Turner
The grande dame of Southern barbecue, Helen Turner has given her heart and soul (and her name) to Helen's Bar BQ. Turner's Brownsville, TN restaurant is legendary among BBQ aficionados for her pulled pork, Polish sausage, ribs, and BBQ bologna.
All of those meals are smoked with oak and hickory and can be slathered in her one-of-a-kind sauce. There's no website for her restaurant—but with its world-famous reputation, it doesn't need one.
Top female grillers include Christie Vanover
As the brains behind GirlsCanGrill.com puts it, she is "forever hovering over a grill, smoker, or campfire with tongs in one hand and a glass of wine in the other." A BBQ competition veteran, Vanover didn't start grilling until she was in her 20s, learning Southern-style BBQ from her father-in-law.
Her actions show her desire to help more women to feel comfortable working a grill. Her website and social channels are a lively spot where everyone can learn some new grilling tricks.
Kita Roberts
Don't visit Kita Roberts' food blog, Girl Carnivore, on an empty stomach. That's because the recipes there include Smoked Chicken Chilaquiles, Short Rib Burgers with Lemongrass and Fennel Slaw, and Bacon-Wrapped Beer Brats, among many, many others.
Between the photos and recipe descriptions, you will likely be salivating and raring to fire up your own grill. When she's not cooking, Roberts is traveling the world, and those global influences frequently wind up in her recipes.
Robyn Lindars
If you're looking to learn more about grills, stop by Robyn Lindars' site, GrillGirl.com. She loves cooking over fire. In fact, she says she usually has about 10 grills in her backyard, so make sure to check out the review section of her site.
Another must for anyone just starting out: her video series of Grill School Classes that will have you moving up the list of top female grillers. She's also shared her grilling know-how on TV.
You'd be remiss not to check out her cookbook "Healthy Electric Smoker—100 Recipes with All Natural Ingredients and Fewer Carbs." It's great to learn how she developed recipes for brands like Land O'Lakes and Walmart.
Yes, grilling can be healthy, as this BBQ list shows!
Deborah and Mary Jones
For these sisters, BBQ is in their blood. Their dad, Leavy B. Jones Sr., taught them to cook as young girls. Now, Deborah "Shorty" and Mary "Little" Jones run the show at their beloved Kansas City, KS restaurant, Jones Bar-B-Q.
Customers flock there to savor their specialty, succulent smoked meats doused in the family's secret recipe sauce. What is you don't live in Kansas City? Not a problem: You can order a bottle of their signature BBQ sauce conveniently online.
More top female grillers: Elizabeth Karmel
The "Grill Girl" proves that BBQ isn't a boys' club. Elizabeth Karmel's website, GirlsattheGrill.com, is a fantastic resource for everyone, from beginners to experts.
You'll find everything from safety basics to the secrets of achieving perfect caramelization. At her website ElizabethKarmel.com, you'll discover an amazing variety of recipes, from the classic (Bubba's Bunch Barbecued Baby Back Ribs) to the unique (Fire-Roasted Tomato and Veggie Chili cooked over indirect medium heat on a grill).
And if you love dessert, her Grilled Banana Split Sundae is one to try out. Her inventiveness and expertise make her a worthy BBQ role model.
Danielle Bennet
As a child, Danielle Bennet unknowingly was prepping to become one of the top female grillers when her family would make regular stops for Southern barbecue during road trips to Florida. Now, this Canadian lives in the US, and she still travels frequently. When Bennet travels, she spreads the BBQ gospel through her brand, Diva Q.
When she's not winning BBQ competitions, she's judging them. She had her own show on the Travel Channel, "BBQ Crawl," and wrote a cookbook, "Diva Q's Barbecue."
The top female grillers finale is Melissa Cookston
Billed as the "Winningest Woman in Barbecue," the seven-time world champion shares her talents with appreciative diners at her Memphis Barbecue Co. restaurants, with locations in Georgia and Mississippi. Known for her two cookbooks and numerous TV appearances, Cookston is recognized as one of America's premier grilling experts.
Are you the griller in the family? What are some of your fave recipes on the grill?

Donald Trump doesn't really give a crap what you think about national monuments
Trump signed an executive order asking the Interior to review 21 sites recently designated as national monuments
By Emma Foehringer Merchant

This article originally appeared in Grist.org.
In late April, field biologist Stanley Smith was catching up on emails at his desk in the College of Sciences at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, when he noticed a shocking note. It came from the Bureau of Land Management, an agency within the Department of the Interior, and informed Smith that the public lands advisory council in southern Nevada that he's served on for years was suspended. Across the country, other regional advisors got similar notices.
Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke had called for a review of more than 200 independent groups that advise his department on various issues, such as whether a historical site or natural feature should be designated a national monument. The day before Smith received his notification, President Trump signed an executive order asking the Interior to review 21 sites recently designated as national monuments. The review would cover patches of wilderness that received the distinction after 1996, like Mojave Trails in California and Bears Ears in Utah, and would assess whether public opinion was adequately taken into account prior to elevating their status.
The monument order itself was controversial. But the months-long suspension of the advisory groups means that while Zinke's team is reconsidering the bounds — and even existence — of some national monuments, the teams specifically set up to provide local input will be out of commission. Called Resource Advisory Councils (RACs), the groups consist of representatives from varied backgrounds, such as oil and gas, ranching, tribal government, and academia.
Mike Quigley, an Arizona RAC member who works for a conservation group, said suspending the advisory councils now "calls into question the administration's sincerity in seeking public input."
Sandra Zellmer, a law professor at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln who specializes in public lands, is more blunt. She says the administration clearly "wants to talk more about economics and energy development and production than about sustainability."
To wit, Zinke has said he'd consider expanding oil and gas exploration, as well as uranium mining, on federal lands. However, a recent report from a group of legal scholars suggests any attempt by Trump to alter a national monument designation will face court challenges — as only Congress has the power to make such a change.
President Clinton and his Interior Secretary Bruce Babbitt created Resource Advisory Councils in their current form in 1995. According to Zellmer, the move signaled a recognition of the importance of public input in making land-management decisions.
Consisting of 10 to 15 members, the councils meet several times a year to discuss activities affecting public lands, like recreation, conservation, and energy exploration. Some RACs are specifically set up to advise on temporary projects, like the creation of a national monument.
Each council has seats reserved for representatives who can advocate for everything from history to energy to grazing. For those involved, the RACs represent a rare space where interests like industry and conservation sit down together to work on recommendations. According to members, that leads to a wide array of views about how public lands should be managed.
"The process requires an openness to people's ideas," says Bob Schneider, the cofounder of a conservation organization and a member of the Central California RAC. "It's a body with a lot of mutual respect for people's concerns and people's values. You don't get to find that so often in government."
In 2015, Barack Obama named northern California's Berryessa Snow Mountain, known for the diverse array of species it hosts, a national monument. Schneider, who advised on that declaration, says the decision-making process engaged anglers, businesses, mountain bikers, farmers, and other parties.
And that sort of broad consensus is exactly what the Interior says it seeks.
"In the case of significant public land use, we feel the public — the people that those monuments affect — should be considered," said Zinke in a briefing previewing Trump's executive order.
Bobby McEnaney, who works for the Natural Resources Defense Council on renewable energy in the West, says the Trump administration is sending mixed signals with the simultaneous reviews of national monument designations and the RACs.
"They say they really value that locals know best," McEnaney says. "But the one formal apparatus that's designed to specifically solicit local input on an institutional level is the one they're deciding to suspend right now."
Without another option, some RAC members are contemplating submitting input on national monuments currently under review — such as the hotly debated Bears Ears, an area near a uranium mine that's sacred to multiple Native American tribes — through the public comment process. (The window to comment on Bears Ears ends this Friday, while input can be given on other sites under consideration until early July.) But members say that process elicits a flood of responses compared to what one RAC members calls the "meaningful and efficient" recommendations proffered by the councils.
"The RACs are an imperfect product by far, but so is democracy," McEnaney says. "It's a democratic process. It involves a lot of different interests."

were delivered in reverse order to groups of students in New Haven, Conn. , and in Cambridge, Mass. , creating Alpha of Connecticut at Yale in November 1780, and Alpha of Massachusetts at Harvard in September 1781. This began the tradition of designating each state's chapter with a letter from the Greek alphabet to indicate where it fits chronologically in that state's chapters. Alpha of Virginia at the College of William Mary was inactive between 1780 and 1851, and again from early in the Civil War until 1893.

Phi Beta Kappa Hall. The original Phi Beta Kappa Society was active for only four years because the approach of the British Army under General Cornwallis forced the college to close. But the faith of those youthful scholars in the future of their Society is shown by their preparation of charters for branches at two other institutions. A charter was Adidas Superstar Custom Colour voted to Harvard, on Dec. 4, 1779, and to Yale four days later.
ranged from characterizing the founder of Phi Beta Kappa as a colonial era Malcolm in the Middle to reflecting on the long overlooked importance of abs. Phi Beta Kappa, the nation's oldest and largest academic honor society, was founded on December 5, 1776, by five students at the College of William Mary in Williamsburg, Va. It was the first society to have a Greek letter name. And in its early years it introduced the essential characteristics of such societies: an oath of secrecy (discarded in 1831), a badge, mottoes in Latin and Greek, a code of laws, and an elaborate initiation ritual.
