YouTube Hacks to Help You Waste Time Even More Efficiently
I am a fan of YouTube, probably too much of a fan, if I m being completely honest. The insane variety of subjects and content, and the all-too-easy-to-find rabbit holes often lead to me waste a bunch of time while I should be working. I had to force myself to get off YouTube just so I could write this article (true story). I am also a big fan of life hacks. I love the fact that some tips and tricks actually do make life a little easier/better. I also like knowing something that not everyone else knows, and I like being able to share some secret knowledge with folks - and that s what I m about to do.
Colts QB Phillip Rivers Announces Retirement
The search for a new quarterback in Indianapolis is officially underway as 17-year veteran, Phillip Rivers announced he s hanging up his cleats and calling it a career.
Rivers released the following statement about his decision, that was shared by ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter on Twitter.
Rivers spent the first 16 years of his career as the starting quarterback for the San Diego (now Los Angeles) Chargers despite not being their first choice with the number one overall pick in the 2004 NFL Draft. The team initially picked Eli Manning first overall, but after the quarterback said he would not play for them, they traded him to the New York Giants in exchange for Rivers who they had selected with the fourth pick.
If you re always eating chocolate, there could be an underlying problem aside from the fact that you just really like to eat chocolate.
Now, we all know people who like chocolate. We also know certain people who crave it nonstop. There might be a reason behind why some people constantly crave chocolate. No, it s not because they are pregnant. In fact, it could have to do with something they are lacking in their diet.
According to Dr. Susan Yanovski, who is a co-director at the government s Office of Obesity Research, if you constantly crave chocolate, there s a good possibility that you aren t getting enough magnesium in your diet. She says that up to 80% of people in the U.S. may be deficient in the essential mineral.
Efforts are still being made to raise the money needed to continue to build Stop Light City, Evansville s premiere children s playground on the west side. Organizers have already installed a couple features, but there are more to come, including the We-Go-Swing. Here s our chance to see the first truly inclusive children s swing in action.
According to Landscape Structures, the We-Go-Swing is a truly inclusive experience - the spacious entry deck can be connected to a ramp for easy roll-on access, and there’s no need to transfer from a mobility device to take part in the fun. Plus, there is plenty of room for children of all ages and their caregivers to sit and/or stand together and enjoy a ride.
