The Baltimore Ravens have wrapped up a full week of training camp. As they're set to take on the Jacksonville Jaguars for Week 1 of the preseason, they released their first official depth chart of the season. Though the depth chart is put together by the public relations staff and should be taken with a grain of salt, there's some truth to be had where players are placed. While I've picked out some quick winners and losers from the first depth chart, so much will likely change before the roster needs to be cut down to 53 players. Winner: WR Seth Roberts AP Photo/Julio Cortez Roberts finds himself at the top of the depth chart, which might be a little surprising. Roberts was cut by the Oakland Raiders after not producing very much. Considering Baltimore has invested a great deal at wide receiver in recent years, seeing Roberts at the top of the chart is a good sign he's been impressing early at training camp. Check out Sportsbook Wire for the latest point spreads! Loser: CB Brandon Carr Photo by Todd Olszewski/Getty Images Carr has started every single game in his 11-year career. But for the first time, we could actually see Carr's streak end after his placement behind Jimmy Smith. Though Carr has been moved around the secondary a good bit during training camp and should still see the field plenty this season, it's a blow for a guy that has had one of the more consistent careers in the league. Considering Carr was the better cornerback over Smith last season, this has to sting a little bit. Winner: RB Kenneth Dixon Photo by Mitchell Layton/Getty Images Before training camp even began, I pointed out how Dixon has an uphill battle to make Baltimore's 53-man roster. Though I put him down as a loser through the first week of training camp, the first depth chart changes things a little bit. Though he still finds himself at third string, it's higher up than I figured he'd be at this stage. Considering the Ravens will keep only three or four running backs this season, Dixon has to keep himself in that third-string spot behind Mark Ingram and Gus Edwards. But if he can stay ahead of Justice Hill, he'll likely find his way on the roster for Week 1. Loser: G Ben Powers Evan Habeeb-USA TODAY Sports Powers was placed at third string at left guard. It's a big blow for a guy in the running for the starting job, but it's an even bigger blow when you consider who is in front of him. Alex Lewis is situated as the second-string left guard in spite of not having been cleared to practice yet. He's still recovering from offseason shoulder surgery. Jermaine Eluemunor takes the top spot on the depth chart even though he failed his conditioning test initially and was expected to be a bubble player this offseason. Of course, the final roster isn't close to being set yet, and Powers can make a surge back. But being in the third spot can't feel good. Winner: LB Chris Board AP Photo/Kelvin Kuo It was expected Board would be fighting with Kenny Young for the starting linebacker role next to Patrick Onwuasor. However, Board has routinely been running with the first-team defense and now finds himself in the starting spot on the depth chart. That's a huge jump up for the former undrafted free agent as he follows in the footsteps of quite a few formerly undrafted linebackers on the Ravens defense. If he can keep up the good work throughout training camp and the preseason, he'll almost assuredly be given that starting job. Loser: CB Maurice Canady AP Photo/Julio Cortez Canady has a tough road to making this team. He's managed to stick around for three years, though he's found his way to injured reserve in every season. This is likely his last chance to actually make the 53-man roster, and that means staying healthy and outperforming other players to get there. Considering Canady is in the fourth-string spot behind Marlon Humphrey, Tavon Young and Anthony Averett, that seems like an unlikely feat. Canady is undoubtedly fighting a few players for the final spot on the cornerback depth chart, and being at the bottom of the very first one isn't the jumping-off point he was likely hoping for.

New Detroit Lions offensive coordinator is very encouraged by what he's seen from the overhauled tight end corps. Bevell was ebullient in his press conference at the start of training camp when asked about T.J. Hockenson, Logan Thomas and the new and improved talent at TE. "Number one, I've seen a big upgrade in that room," Bevell said. "I mean with Jesse James, with Logan Thomas, with T.J. Hockenson, Isaac Nauta is in that room as well. We upgraded that room as a whole." He noted the size difference as well as the quickness with which Hockenson, the team's first-round pick, and his new teammates have picked things up this offseason. "We upgraded in height as well. It's a big, tall room, but all those guys have come in. They've learned the offenses really well. They've worked hard again, as I've said. I mean, that's going to kind of be the thing because they've really done a nice job of committing to it." Hockenson, James, Thomas and Nauta have the potential to turn what was the weakest part of Detroit's underwhelming offense in 2018 into one of the strengths of what is hopefully a resurgent performance under Bevell.

ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. (AP) Running back LeSean McCoy might still be, as he puts it, ''The Guy'' in a Buffalo Bills backfield that also features the NFL's active leading rusher, Frank Gore. On Thursday, diminutive rookie Devin Singletary showed he shouldn't be overlooked. With McCoy resting and Gore limited to playing two series, Singletary got the Bills off to a running start in their preseason-opening 24-16 win over the Indianapolis Colts. Being fed the ball seven times on Buffalo's fourth drive, the 5-foot-7 Singletary displayed the elusive qualities that led to the Bills drafting him in the third round. He accounted for 16 yards rushing and 21 receiving as part of a 46-yard drive that ended with Matt Barkley hitting Cam Phillips for an 8-yard touchdown pass to open the scoring 5 1/2 minutes into the second quarter. ''He's a natural,'' Gore said. ''People think he's small, but he's really not. He's got a thick lower body. He's a true running back.'' Singletary was taken aback when informed of Gore's comments. ''Coming from Frank, that's major,'' he said. ''If he says I'm a natural, then I guess I'm a natural.'' Singletary scored 66 touchdowns during his three years at Florida Atlantic, which led to Bills general manager Brandon Beane referring to him as ''the funnest guy I've watched all year.'' Singletary was fearless in running up the middle, at one point having defensive end Kemoko Turay whiff as he sped past him. And he displayed patience in following his blocks, as happened on a 10-yarder to convert a third-and-10 two plays before Phillips scored. Tackle Ty Nsekhe wasn't surprised. ''He's been doing it all camp. So just to see it translate into the game situation is a good thing,'' Nsekhe said. The Colts struggled on offense while sitting out numerous starters, including quarterback Andrew Luck, who is nursing a strained left calf. Backup Jacoby Brissett finished 2 of 5 for 21 yards over three series, with both completions to offseason free-agent addition Devin Funchess. Indianapolis combined for two first downs and 44 yards over its first seven series. Backup Phillip Walker then ended the half by putting together a five-play 41-yard drive, capped by Cole Hedlund hitting a 42-yard field goal to cut Buffalo's lead to 14-3. Coach Frank Reich placed the blame for the Colts' sputtering offense on an inability to run the ball. Indianapolis finished with 16 yards rushing in the first half, though it was missing starter Marlon Mack, who had the day off. ''Yeah, we're vanilla, but it shouldn't matter in the run game,'' Reich said. ''We were expecting to be able to run the ball.'' With his Pro Football Hall of Fame uncle Jim Kelly in the stands, Colts quarterback Chad Kelly provided the only offensive highlights upon taking over midway through the third quarter. Kelly scored on a 33-yard scamper and also led the Colts on two drives ending with field goals. ''It was awesome to finally come home and get back on the field, like a kid in a candy shop, having fun and doing it with the guys,'' Kelly said. He grew up in Buffalo, but has had a checkered college and pro career, and is seeking a second chance after signing with the Colts in May. Bills starter Josh Allen completed 6 of 11 attempts for 66 yards over two series, the second ending with veteran kicker Stephen Hauschka hitting the left upright on a 34-yard field-goal attempt. WADING IN Running back Christian Wade, giving football a shot after growing up in England playing rugby, scored on a 65-yard run on Buffalo's first play from scrimmage after Kelly scored. It also happened to be the first time Wade took the field. The only difficulty he had was figuring out how to celebrate. ''I had it all planned out. I was like, when I get to the end zone, I'm going to put the ball down, like in rugby, and I might even dive like in rugby,'' Wade said. ''But I thought I might hurt myself in all these pads.'' CLEARED TO TRAVEL Colts backup offensive lineman Ian Silberman was released from a Buffalo-area hospital and cleared to travel home with the team after complaining of an abdominal medical issue. Silberman was transported to the hospital for precautionary reasons before the game. SITTING OUT Among the Indianapolis notables who did not play were TEs Eric Ebron and Jack Doyle, DE Jabaal Sheard (knee), PK Adam Vinatieri, and rookies LB Ben Banogu and WR Parris Campbell due to hamstring injuries.

As if Houston Texans fans needed another reason to love their star J.J. Watt, he took the podium once more on Wednesday and was asked about the importance of sleep to aid his day to day recovery. " Sleep is nature's best recovery tool so I try and use it as much as I can." The 30-year-old defensive end is well known for his love of sleep, specifically naps. Back in 2015 when the Texans were the featured team on HBO's 'Hard Knocks,' Watt showed the world his 'work bed' tucked away in a quiet corner of NRG Stadium. Something that remains there to this day. "I still have my bed in the equipment room so I use that in the middle of the day," admitted Watt. "At night, as soon as I go home I basically recover my body and then go straight to bed. It gets a little tougher when you wake up at 4:45 every morning, but you find a way." For anyone reading, here is your chance. If anyone ever questions exactly why you sleep quite so much, simply tell them that J.J. Watt advised it.

CORVALLIS, Ore. (AP)   Oregon State quarterback Jake Luton is getting one more chance in a career marred by injury. Luton was granted a sixth year of eligibility by the NCAA and he is competing   again   to be the Beavers' starter. His approach is to keep it simple. "I'm just trying to stay healthy and just trying to be consistent throughout the year. I'm not trying to light up any record books or anything like that," the 6-foot-7 quarterback said. "I want to put the team in position to win games and make sure I'm on the field. If I can do those two things I think we'll have a good year." Luton has been limited by injuries to just nine starts since he transferred to Oregon State in 2017. During his first season in Corvallis, he missed eight games after he injured his spine in a game at Washington State. He played in eight games with five starts last year but was hampered by a concussion and an ankle injury. His main competition this year is redshirt sophomore Tristan Gebbia, who sat out last season after transferring from Nebraska. The QB competition is something of a preseason ritual for Luton. He appeared to have the edge over Gebbia in the spring. But second-year coach Jonathan Smith said both quarterbacks made progress over the summer. "Jake did have a good spring, we really like the step he took," said Smith, himself a former Oregon State quarterback and QB coach at Washington. "But I'm really anxious to see Tristan here. Those 15 days of (spring) practice for Tristan, and now the opportunity to make a nice jump that he's going to get here in the first couple of weeks of camp." Jack Colletto, who saw time at quarterback last season and was effective in short-yardage situations, is playing at linebacker in camp, although Smith said he may still see some snaps at QB this season. Oregon State's eventual starter will be challenged. The Beavers, who won just two games last season, were picked to finish at the bottom of the Pac-12 North in the league's preseason media poll. But the team has a competent stable of wide receivers, led by junior Isaiah Hodgins and senior Trevon Bradford. "It's easy to say we'll come in last place because the last two seasons we had," Luton said. "But the difference between winning and losing in the Pac-12 is so small. You look at a lot of the games we had last year and we were right there in the third and fourth quarter, and something happened and it was a snowball effect. I think if we clean some things up we're going to surprise a lot of people, and we're not as far off as people think." A native of Marysville, Washington, Luton redshirted his freshman year at Idaho before playing in eight games with the Vandals in 2015. He transferred to Ventura Community College and set program records with 3,551 passing yards and 40 touchdowns in his lone season there. In his time with the Beavers, Luton has passed for 2,513 yards and 14 touchdowns. NCAA rules allow players who have redshirted in their first year to be granted an extension if they play in four games or less in a season, as Luton did in 2017. Luton graduated last December with a degree in sociology and he's currently taking graduate-level classes. Asked if he's worried about any on-field apprehension because of his injury history, he was emphatic. "I definitely don't think so, and that's definitely not what you want," he said. "I think you'll get injured more if you're playing too timid." Turns out, he's been working on sliding to guard against injury, even though it goes against his instincts "It's just trying to figure out the right time to slide," he said. "That's something I've never really done before, so learning when the right time was and when the right time wasn't was kind of difficult, but I think it'll be fine," he said. Oregon State opens the season at home on Aug. 30 against Oklahoma State. ___ More AP college football: https://apnews.com/Collegefootball and https://twitter.com/AP_Top25


The Broncos informed veteran defensive lineman Domata Peko in February that they would not try to re-sign him . No one else has tried to sign him, either. Still a free agent in mid-June, Peko tells TMZ that he hopes to keep playing. " I think I have a couple more years in the tank ," Peko said, via NFL.com. "My agent's trying to work some stuff out. We're gonna see; just being patient with it and enjoying this time with my family." Peko said he'd prefer to play in one of the NFL's two-team cities. "I would love to play here in L.A.," Peko said. "I'm all about L.A., grew up in Whittier. So, dude, if the Rams come calling or the Chargers, I would love to do that." Peko has 13 years of NFL experience, and he has started 16 regular-season games in 10 seasons, including 2018. He spent 11 seasons with the Bengals and the last two with the Broncos.


Pro Football Focus' annual list of the top 25 NFL players under 25 has been released. The 2019 edition of the list features Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes as one of the top players in the NFL under the age of 25. Here is what they had to say about Mahomes: The now third-year quarterback is coming off a simply sensational 2018 season that rightfully ended with MVP honors. Mahomes' overall grade of 92.9 is currently tied with 2013 Peyton Manning for the ninth-best grade of the PFF era (2006 - present), and his 134.2 passer rating from a clean pocket is the highest single-season mark of the PFF era among signal-callers with at least 500 dropbacks. Long may it continue. Mahomes will be just under 24 when the season starts, and he's coming off a historic season capped with league MVP honors. He finished the 2018 season with a top-10 all-time overall grade from PFF and the best passer rating with a clean pocket that the analytics site has ever seen. It makes sense that Mahomes is at the top of this list, especially because there have been no signs that he'll slow down in his second season as a starter. Last season the Chiefs had three players make the list: Kareem Hunt, Chris Jones and Tyreek Hill. Given Hill's situation and the lack of clarity surrounding his status with the NFL, it's fair that he didn't make the list this year. Hunt, of course, is on the list but is no longer a member of the Chiefs. Finally, Jones didn't make the list this year. He seems like a clear omission because he's still under 25 and coming off a 15.5-sack season. PFF had Packers defensive tackle Kenny Clark as the lone interior defensive lineman on the list this year. What Chiefs players do you think will make this list next year?

On the court, Josh Jackson 's status had fallen so far that the No. 4 pick of just two years ago was traded to Memphis in a salary dump for Phoenix (so it could sign Ricky Rubio and re-sign Kelly Oubre ). Off the court, Jackson appears to have dealt with his arrest at a Miami music festival this summer by reaching a plea deal that will keep him out of the courtroom. TMZ broke the story . But, Jackson was able to get the felony charge dropped a couple weeks ago … and now, we've learned he's cut a deal to get the misdemeanor charge dropped too. The Miami State Attorney's Office tells us Jackson has agreed to complete some kind of pre-trial diversion program in exchange for having the charge dropped. The diversion program usually consists of either community service or some kind of life-improvement courses (like alcohol education or something like that) to help offenders grow from their legal mistakes without having a conviction on their record. While that report is pretty vague on the details, it also sounds about right. This is not exactly the most serious of crimes. Jackson was arrested at Rolling Loud music festival in Miami when he reportedly tried to enter VIP area many times without a proper pass. Eventually, the police were called and they handcuffed him, but when he got the chance Jackson tried to run away. In handcuffs. That didn't end well. He was initially charged with escape and misdemeanor resisting arrest. While none of that speaks well of Jackson handling a situation with maturity or common sense, this also is not the kind of serious crime that needs to be clogging up the court system. This seems a good agreement. Back on the court, there are minutes to be had on the wing for Jackson, he will be competing for time against Dillon Brooks , Grayson Allen , Kyle Anderson , Brandon Clarke , and Jae Crowder . The question is, will Jackson earn those minutes, or will Memphis be looking to move on from him as fast as Phoenix was. Jackson will make $7 million this season, then hit the free agent market next summer (likely as a restricted free agent), he's playing for that next paycheck.


A large fight broke out at the California State Fair Friday night, marking the third straight year that there has been a fight at the event. Sacramento police said they broke up the crowd outside the main gate using pepper spray and no arrests were made. "(It was) the safest and most appropriate choice to prevent the situation from getting out of control and to disperse the crowd safely, one officer deployed pepper spray," read a statement from the state fair. "No one was hurt, and the incident was over in roughly 30 seconds." Following the incident, Cal Expo police showed KCRA 3 its extensive network of 200 high-definition surveillance cameras that are monitored in real-time. Police also highlighted that uniformed police on horseback, motorcycles and on foot will be visible inside and outside the Cal Expo gates during the entire run of the State Fair to proactively address any issues before they escalate. Cal Expo's police chief also offered a message to anyone intent on causing trouble. "We have a code of conduct which prohibits unruly behavior such as running, profanity or challenging others to fights. Those who violate the code of conduct, we ask them to behave and comply with the code of conduct or we ask them to leave." said Cal Expo Police Chief Joe Robillard. This is the first time in a decade that no arrests have been needed in the opening nights of the State Fair, Robillard said.

MUNICH --Chilean outsider Cristian Garin extended his remarkable run at the Munich Open by reaching the final after beating third-seeded Marco Cecchinato 6-2, 6-4 on Saturday. Garin saved both break points he faced after rain delayed play twice in the second set on the outdoor clay. Ranked No. 47, he claimed the biggest win of his career in defeating No. 3 Alexander Zverev - the two-time defending champion - the day before. Garin will face Matteo Berrettini or the fourth-seeded Roberto Bautista Agut in Sunday's final. The second semifinal was put back to Sunday morning due to persistent rain in Munich. Garin, winner of his maiden ATP title in Houston last month, has never played either on the tour. --- More AP tennis coverage: https://apnews.com/apf-Tennis and https://twitter.com/AP-Sports


When the New York Giants selected Daniel Jones at No. 6 overall in the 2019 NFL Draft, the football world melted down. It was a horrible decision, general manager Dave Gettleman had no idea what he was doing and Jones was a terrible quarterback bound to fail at the NFL level. That was then and this is now. Once the window for ragebait closed and Jones actually hit the field to show what he was capable of, the narrative began to change. Drastically. In the seven weeks since the NFL Draft, Jones has casually chipped away at the media narrative, making all of his critics and detractors look like what they had called Gettleman - fools. Suddenly, Jones is not only a capable NFL quarterback, but he's the real deal and arguably has a very bright future ahead of him. Video by NFL.com "What's interesting to me is that even the skeptics about taking Daniel Jones at No. 6 overall are now, after watching him, saying he's the real deal," Chris Mortensen said, via ESPN's 'Get Up' TV program . "Jones has been so good this offseason, but go back to that Dave Gettleman line where we heard - kind of like that Kansas City model. I think they believe they're going to be a run-oriented team and their offensive line is going to be much improved. "Jones - with all the experience he had at Duke - and we forget that compared to Dwayne Haskins and Kyler Murray - a lot of experience at Duke. He has shown very well this spring." As impressive as Jones has been, Mortensen cautions that perhaps it's time we all start listening to and heeding what Gettleman has to say - which means at least one more year of Eli Manning under center. "I still think Eli Manning is the starter and will be the starter when they open the season," Mortensen said. "I believe that Eli has always been prepared to go out and start the season. He's excited about the season because the offensive line is settled. They are going to be a run-oriented team…Ultimately Eli is fine with the situation. When they drafted Daniel Jones, Pat Shurmur got on the phone with Eli and said it's your job to keep him off the field." Although head coach Pat Shurmur left the door cracked for a quarterback competition in training camp, Manning will be the starter come Week 1. The Giants will follow the "Kansas City model" and Jones will get a year of learning under his belt before being thrown to the wolves. The good news? When that time finally does arrive, it looks like almost everyone who expressed their pessimism will be wrong. Instead, Jones will shine and Gettleman will begin handing out some crow pie.

On this day 75 years ago, Allied forces were storming the beaches in Normandy. In New York City, CBS News Radio anchor Robert Trout confirmed what the Germans had already reported: the D-Day invasion was underway. "Everything was at stake," said Robert Citino, the senior historian at the National WWII Museum in New Orleans. "World War II had been raging now for five years, and it was time to bring it to an end. Every month it extended it was more death, more mass murder, starvation. The situation couldn't have been more dire." Citino added that "it's entirely possible" that the pivotal operation, which had been planned for years, could have gone awry. "Any time you have anything this complex, air, land, sea, 150,000 troops, thousands of tanks and planes ... I can think of a hundred different ways the D-Day invasion could have failed," Citino told "CBS This Morning" co-host Anthony Mason. "A sudden storm could have wrecked the D-Day invasion, and they happen all the time here in the channel." Citino said the Allied forces only had one chance to make D-Day a success, due to the "size and scope and complexity" of the operation. "If it doesn't work, it's not like you have a second shot in the chamber," he said. He also said that he agreed "100%" with Winston Churchill's claim that "this vast operation is undoubtedly the most complicated and difficult that has ever taken place." "I think it's even true to the present day," he said, adding that it's "hard to imagine that we'll ever see anything like it again." The operation was so complex, Citino said, that Allied forces even put together a phantom army group to trick the Germans   which included fake radio messages and inflatable tanks designed to look like the real thing from aerial reconnaissance views. The Allies coordinated the sprawling operation on paper, he said: "yellow legal pads and sharpened pencils." Citino noted that D-Day veterans' living memories of the iconic battle will soon be a thing of the past. "Once they're gone, memory becomes history," he said. "It's no longer a living, breathing thing. It's words on a piece of paper."


Once you pass the big 4-0, your body really starts to go through some major changes. Here are 40 things every man should know about his health. 40 Things Every Man Over 40 Should Know About His Health First, it's a shoulder ache. Next, it's trouble with your digestion. Then it's a bout of crippling lower back pain . And then it's a string of chronic fatigue. And then, and then, and then… It's natural that as you age , your body goes through changes and once you pass the big 4-0, you really start to notice those shifts. Your 40s are the perfect time to get educated about major health risks, and maybe even make some lifestyle changes. Here are 40 things every man should know about his health if he wants to stick around for years to come. And for more essential healthy living advice, learn all about the 40 Ways Your Body Changes After 40 . 1. You should be more adamant about wearing sunscreen. If you haven't been wearing sunscreen on the daily and not just when you go to the beach  it's a good idea to start doing so. According to Inna Knyazevych , esthetician at In-Glow Med Spa in New York City, your 40s can mean a change in your skin, and protecting your complexion from those harmful UV rays is a must. "Men's skin is naturally thicker and has more collagen. As we age, collagen production declines and men in their 40s start seeing many changes as well. If fact, some of them are more prominent, like hyperpigmentation, for example," she says. "Men tend to be less cautious about sun exposure and don't really use products to repair the damage that's been done." And for ways to turn this chore into a breeze, steal these 15 Hacks to Apply Your Sunscreen More Easily . 2. High stress is wreaking havoc on your skin. Stress can seriously affect your health, contributing to high blood pressure, heart disease, anxiety, digestive disorders, and other issues, says Harvard Medical School . As you age, living a high-stress life can also show up on your skin. "Dark circles, another concern for men after 40, are a result of high stress levels and skin thinning," Knyazevych says. "Eye cream with vitamin K can help fix the issue." 3. Your hormones are changing. Men might not experience menopause like women, but you will experience hormone shifts that can cause changes in your body. According to the Mayo Clinic , testosterone levels typically drop an average of 1 percent per year after 30, meaning, by the time you hit your 40s, your levels have certainly reduced. With this can come a change in sexual function, sleep patterns, increased body fat, and emotional changes, including depression and a lack of motivation or self-confidence all things your doctor can help address to make sure you feel your best . And for more levels to keep an eye on, here are 40 Health Risks That Skyrocket After 40 . 4. Your mental health should be your top priority. Are you generally feeling down, agitated, and tired? That could be due to depression something that affects more than 14.8 million American adults. According to Johns Hopkins Medicine , letting it go untreated can affect every aspect of your life much more than your mood. Depressed individuals are also more likely to have cardiovascular disease, back problems, arthritis, diabetes, and high blood pressure . 5. You're at a higher risk for oral cancers. As you get older, your risk for certain health problems typically increases including issues in your mouth. "Men over 40 should know they have a higher risk for oral cancers ," says Inna Chern, DDS , of New York General Dentistry . "It's often linked to smoking and heavy alcohol consumption. In addition, researchers have noted that HPV is on the rise and certain strains have been shown to cause oral cancers." 6. Flossing is more crucial than ever, even if you hate it. If there's anything most people can agree on despising, it's flossing. Even though it's annoying to do, it can make a huge difference in your oral hygiene as you age. "The most important thing anyone can do for their dental health is spend four minutes a day brushing: two minutes in the morning and two at night, and one minute flossing their teeth," says Sonya Krasilnikov, DDS , co-founder and cosmetic general dentist at Dental House in New York City. "When done properly, we see more and more patients keeping their natural teeth later and later in life." And for more poor oral hygiene habits to be aware of, here are 25 Things You're Doing That Would Horrify Your Dentist . 7. Your medications could be causing other issues. Medications do a pretty good job of helping people deal with health issues, but it's also important to be aware of other problems they might be causing. Luckily, if you stay open with your doctor, you can work together to find an option that's best for you. "Men in their 40s begin taking medications for various health issues, and many commonly-used medications cause dry mouth, also known as xerostomia," says Krasilnikov. "Having a dry mouth is not only uncomfortable, it makes chewing food challenging, causes bad breath, and significantly increases your cavity risk."

You don't need us to tell you that kidney stones are no fun. The hard objects which are made of chemicals in your urine can be caused by everything from not drinking enough water to eating too many salty or sugary foods. But age can also be a factor. According to the National Kidney Foundation , the lifetime risk is higher in men 19 percent, compared to 9 percent in women and the first episode often occurs after age 30. To prevent them from happening, stay healthy ; high blood pressure, obesity, and diabetes only increase the risk. 9. It's important to know your family history. Once you hit your 40s, it's important to brush up on your family history to make sure your doctor knows anything you're at a higher risk for. "In this age range, family history of diseases such as heart disease, colon cancer, and prostate cancer are greatly important. Family history like this helps direct appropriate health screenings at the appropriate age for each patient," says Ryan Berglund, MD , urology specialist at the Cleveland Clinic. "Lifestyle modifications are especially important in this age group for patients with a family history of heart disease." 10. You might start losing your hair. Research has found that male androgenetic alopecia the most common cause of hair loss in men affects 30 to 50 percent of men by the time they turn 50 years old. Because experiencing male androgenetic alopecia is often considered a risk factor for health issues like arterial stiffness and cardiovascular disease, it's a good idea to bring it up to your doctor. And for more information about how your locks evolve as you age, here are 17 Surprising Signs Your Hair Will Go Gray . 11. You could start to experience adult acne. Hair loss is one thing, but you could also experience another change to your appearance throughout your 40s: more pimples . "The hormonal changes men face can also result in adult acne," says Knyazevych. "It's also very common for the skin to become more sensitive and prone to rosacea at this age." 12. Annual skin exams should be required. How many of your annual physicals have involved a skin exam? The next time you set one up, ask your doctor to look over your freckles and moles, too. "One of the most important practices after 40 should be an annual skin check," Knyazevych says. "It could be truly lifesaving." 13. It might be time to invest in a good scale. If you struggle with staying at a healthy weight, it might be a good idea to monitor it more closely until you develop healthier eating and exercise habits that keep that number in check. According to the Cleveland Clinic , your metabolism can slow down as you age, and when you put on a lot of extra pounds, you could be setting yourself up for type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and stroke, certain types of cancer, sleep apnea, kidney disease, and other health issues. 14. You might need to up your vitamin D and calcium. As you get older, paying attention to your bone health becomes more and more important. To keep your bones nice and strong, there are certain dietary needs to take note of. "Bone health is something that we need to maintain as we get older, and with a mixture of a healthy diet and vitamins and supplements, you can reduce the risk of bone loss and osteoporosis," says Angie Kuhn, RDN , director of research and nutrition for Persona Nutrition in Snoqualmie, Washington. "Nutrients critical for bones include vitamin D and calcium, and vitamin D deficiency can become common as you age." 15. Make sure your cholesterol levels are checked. Many men think they don't need to get their cholesterol levels checked until they're 50, but that's not the case. In fact, waiting could set you up for health problems in the future. According to the Cleveland Clinic , total cholesterol should be measured every five years starting at age 20, so make sure to ask your doctor about your levels now. If your arteries start to clog, you could be putting your life at risk. 16. You're at a higher risk for TMD. If you have no idea what TMD is, you're not alone. Short for temporomandibular joint disorder, it's a problem that occurs with the hinge that connects your jaw to your skull, causing difficulty chewing, clicking and locking noises, and jaw pain. And Chern says men over 40 are at a higher risk of it happening. "TMD's exact causes are unknown, but certain cumulative age-related factors such as muscle spasms, changes in tooth structure, and trauma and arthritis may contribute to the disorder," she says. 17. You might need to up the amount of omega-3s you're getting. If you don't have a lot of healthy fats like from nuts, chia seeds, and avocados in your diet, you might want to up the amount of omega-3s you're getting. "Omega-3s are crucial at every stage of life. They support important functions in the body, from brain, skin, eye and heart health to hormone regulation, healthy inflammatory response, muscle strength, and more," says Leah Gordon , ND , naturopathic health advisor at Needed . " Several meta studies also suggest that omega-3s support sperm quality and natural conception." 18. Aches and pains could signal health problems. When you're younger, you probably have a good idea of where your aches and pains are coming from. Now that you're in your 40s, however, you might want to consider getting any that pop up checked out: It could be your body trying to tell you something. "While not every sign or symptom you experience requires attention, it's important to address the ones that are lingering or getting worse," says Keira L. Barr , MD , the founder and chief wellness officer of Resilient Health Institute . "Life is busy and you may be tempted to brush off aches, pains, or spots that are growing or changing as part of the normal aging process. But here's the thing: Pain and skin changes are signals that your body needs attention. When in doubt, check it out and advocate for yourself to get testing done when appropriate." And for more on that, check out these 40 Questions Every Man Should Ask His Doctor After 40 . 19. It's crucial to keep your heart healthy. Are you taking good care of your heart? According to the National Institute on Aging , as you age, you're more likely to suffer from heart issues like heart attacks, stroke, heart failure, or heart disease, with your highest risk being at age 65 and older. That means now's the time to make sure you're keeping your heart as healthy as possible to lower your risk in the future. And for more levels to keep an eye on, here are 40 Health Risks That Skyrocket After 40 . 20. You need to quit smoking, once and for all. If you're still smoking by the time you hit 40, it's time to quit  stat. According to the National Institute on Aging, it's the leading cause of preventable death. By quitting now, you'll drastically cut your risk of everything from heart disease and stroke to cancer in the future. 21. It's important to tune into your body. If a workout hurts, don't do it. If a new diet is making you feel iffy, stop eating that way. Now's not the time to try and do what's popular it's the time to listen to your body and figure out what's best for you . "Just because social media is popularizing the latest fad, trend, or workout as 'the best way' to get in shape or increase longevity doesn't make it true…and it certainly doesn't make it true for you," Barr says. "Tuning into your body and being mindful of how it responds to your diet, workouts, lifestyle, and environmental exposures including the quality of your air, water, and level of EMFs is the only truth that matters for optimizing your health." 22. You need to take care of any gingivitis, stat. If you have gingivitis a common form of gum disease that leads to inflamed, red, and irritated gums it's time to schedule a dentist appointment to take care of the problem before it messes with your overall health. "Men over 40 should know that untreated gingivitis can increase their already higher risk of cardiovascular problems, including heart attack and stroke," Chern says. "Heart disease is the leading problem in men over 40, and increased bacteria and inflammation in the mouth have been shown to increase the likelihood of heart disease. The bacteria and inflammatory cells enter the bloodstream due to the vascularity of the mouth and get trapped in vessels in and around the heart." 23. Exercise isn't a luxury it's a necessity. As you age, men typically experience a diminished aerobic capacity, stiffer blood vessels, muscle loss, and weight gain. While you can't stop everything that naturally happens to your body over time, Harvard Medical School says you can slow it down by sticking to an exercise program you love. Instead of viewing exercise as something you do to look good, think of it as the key to living a longer, happier life. For some awesome routines, check out these 30 Workouts That Burn More Than 500 Calories An Hour ! 24. You should be thinking about your prostate health. Prostate health is something you should bring up to your doctor if your family members have had problems in the past. "While there are competing recommendations regarding the appropriate time to initiate prostate cancer screenings, it should be discussed with your primary physician in your 50s even earlier with a family history of prostate cancer ," Berglund says. 25. You should up your probiotics. If you're not already eating fermented foods like kimchi, sauerkraut, and miso on the regular, make sure you're getting enough probiotics to keep your gut health in check. "You should be increasing your probiotic intake as you age. While there are some probiotics in foods, there are many more strains that you can benefit from with a supplement, including weight control and gastric health," Kuhn says. "While probiotic strains improve the healthy balance of good bacteria in your digestive tract, research shows this helps with immune function your body's ability to fight infection, which is extremely important as you age." 26. Ask your doctor about your vitamin needs. Making sure you're getting everything you need nutrition-wise could help prevent health problems from occurring in the first place. "As men age, they may be more likely to take prescription medications, but it's beneficial to also increase vitamin and supplement intake based on their doctor's recommendations for their specific needs," Kuhn says. 27. Staying social can greatly benefit your health. A busy schedule and a great deal of stress makes it hard to have the energy to spend time with friends. But loneliness isn't good for anyone, especially as you age: According to a 2012 study published in JAMA , being lonely not only makes it more difficult to do everyday activities as you age, it also increases your risk of death. 28. You need to keep challenging yourself. After working all day, you probably head home and watch television or scroll through your phone. Instead, try doing something that keeps your brain working like reading, doing a puzzle, or playing a game. According to a 2001 study published in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America , doing so can help keep your mind strong as you age and even help fight off Alzheimer's . 29. You're more likely to have sleep apnea. Most of the time, men don't know they're dealing with sleep apnea . The sleep disorder occurs when your breathing stops and starts throughout the night, and could explain any loud snores or constant tiredness. And according to Chern, men over 40 are two to three times more likely to have it. "Sleep apnea is correlated with heart disease, diabetes, depression, anxiety, weight gain, bruxism, and dry mouth. Dentists are often the first to diagnose or suspect sleep apnea because we look at mouths and throats all day," Chern says. "Many dental practitioners are making mandibular advancement appliances to help alleviate some of the symptoms, which include snoring, insomnia, sleep deprivation, and a general feeling of being tired throughout the day." 30. You're at a higher risk of experiencing urinary incontinence. Let's be honest: Most people have peed their pants a tiny bit laughing a time or two. As you get older, urinary incontinence or accidentally leaking urine occurs way more often. According to Michigan Medicine , the problem happens more often in older than younger men and can either be a short-term issue or last a long time. If you're experiencing problems, chat with your doctor to find ways to control it, whether it's taking medicine, doing exercises, or making certain lifestyle changes, like cutting back on caffeine . 31. You should be performing testicular self-exams. If you don't already do testicular self-exams at home, you're not alone: A 2018 Cleveland Clinic survey found that only 40 percent of men between the ages of 35 to 54 do. But taking the time has the potential to save your life. "Testicular self-exams are quite easy to do and recommended for men in this age range," says Berglund. "Palpating, or examining using one's hands, a lump on testicular self-exams is the most common presenting symptom of testicular cancer, making it that much more important." 32. Stop drinking so much alcohol. Back in the day, you could probably throw back quite a few brewskis with no hesitation. Now those hangovers are trying to tell you something: Your body can't handle that much booze anymore. To stay healthy for years to come, the National Institute on Aging says men should stick to a maximum of two drinks a day, and just FYI one drink means one 12-ounce can or bottle of beer or one 5-ounce glass of wine, not the whole pack or bottle. To know if you're in the safe zone or not, check out What Your Drinking Habits Say About Your Health . 33. Sleep isn't just for beauty anymore. Sure, sleep helps get rid of under-eye bags so you can impress in your work meetings without looking like you were up all hours of the night. But it's also important for your overall health, especially as you age. "Getting quality sleep is crucial to help regulate your body's natural rhythms and generate the anti-aging and antioxidant hormones like melatonin, glutathione, and growth hormone, which play a role in combating DNA damage, cancer, chronic disease, and maintaining the integrity of your skin barrier function," Barr says. "When it comes to skin health, the likelihood of breakouts, rashes, skin infections, wrinkles, and the aggressiveness of skin cancer increase when sleep quality and quantity decrease." 34. You're at a greater risk of diabetes. There are many risk factors for type 2 diabetes including your weight and family history but one you might not have known about is your age. According to the Mayo Clinic , your risk increases as you get older particularly after you turn 45. In fact, the National Diabetes Statistics Report stated there were 10.7 million new cases of diabetes diagnosed in men and women within the 45 to 64 age range in 2015 alone. 35. Getting naked could save your life. "There's a reason why getting naked is so important for you, now more than ever," Barr says. "Did you know that skin cancer is the most common cancer worldwide? In fact, in the United States, 1 in 5 people will be diagnosed with skin cancer . Don't let yourself be a statistic. Instead, check your skin every single month. That means top to bottom, head to toe, including all the cracks, crevices, and intimate bits for any spots that are growing, changing, persistently bleeding, and/or stand out." 36. Managing your stress is a must. One thing you've probably learned over the years is stress doesn't seem to fade away it only gets more intense. Because you'll probably never be able to say sayonara to it for good, you need to learn how to manage it so it doesn't affect your health. The National Institute on Aging says the best way to do so is by meditating , doing physical activity, and talking your problems out with those close to you or a professional. 37. Your vision could get worse. If you have 20/20 vision now, enjoy it while you can. According to the American Optometric Association , adults typically begin to have problems seeing clearly starting in their early- to mid-40s, and having a desk job where you're staring at a computer all day only makes it worse. No matter what shape your eyes are currently in, you should see an eye doctor at least every two years, if not more often. 38. You're at a higher risk for gum disease. How often do you really go to the dentist? If it's not the recommended twice-a-year schedule, you could be really hurting your health. "Men over 40 should know they're at higher risk for gum disease," Chern says. "Studies have shown older men exhibit poorer oral hygiene habits and visit dental professionals less frequently than their female counterparts. Medical ailments such as joint pain also increase after 40 and may make it harder to brush and floss." 39. You have to put more thought into what you're eating. Sure, grabbing your favorite burger for lunch at the diner down the street from your office is delicious. Unfortunately, your heart isn't as into the greasy meal as you are. According to the National Institute on Aging, getting older means having to be more cautious of what you're putting in your body. To keep your heart health in check, it's best to eat low amounts of added sugar, salt, and trans fats and instead focus on filling your plate with fruits and veggies. 40. You have to take your health into your own hands. When it comes to your health, your doctors can only do so much. In your 40s, it's crucial that you putting your well-being at the forefront . "Imagine feeling, looking, and performing your absolute best every day. You can, starting today," Barr says. "Your doctor can provide you with recommendations, guidelines, and evidence-based treatment recommendations, but at the end of the day, you have to be willing to invest the time, energy, and resources into getting the results you desire. Set yourself up for success and get intentional about your goals, then take one action every day to help achieve them."

Rebuilds in the NFL seem to take shape faster and faster every year. Last year's losers often become this year's winners. It's likely that trend continues in 2019. We took a look at 2018's eight last-place teams, and ranked them by their chances of going worst to first in their respective divisions. 8. New York Giants Sorry Giants fans, but Big Blue will be singing the blues again in 2019. A well-past-his-prime Eli Manning will be under center in Week 1, the receiving corps is already in shambles and the offensive line has its own problems. As good as Saquon Barkley is, he won't be able to carry the team on his own. The Giants will be lucky if they're anywhere near .500 by season's end. This team is stuck in the basement for the foreseeable future. 7. Cincinnati Bengals The last thing a rookie head coach needs is to get hit hard by training camp injuries. First-round left tackle Jonah Williams is likely out for the year with a shoulder injury. Pro Bowl receiver A.J. Green is dealing with another lower-body injury that could keep him out through the first few weeks of the season . The offense is likely to struggle out of the gate, and there's no reason to think Zac Taylor's defense will be much help. It's going to be a long year in Cincinnati. 6. Oakland Raiders The Raiders added a number of talented players to their roster this offseason. Oakland brought in Antonio Brown and Tyrell Williams, drafted running back Josh Jacobs and revamped their offensive line. The offense should score more points in 2019, but it might not be enough. The schedule is brutal, and playing in the same division as the Kansas City Chiefs and Los Angeles Chargers won't be easy. The Raiders will be much better this season, but not good enough to compete for a division crown. 5. Arizona Cardinals There is plenty to be excited about if you're a Cardinals fan. Rookie head coach Kliff Kingsbury is installing his version of the Air Raid offense and rookie quarterback Kyler Murray has already impressed his new teammates . The problem is that the highly competitive NFC West is loaded with brutally tough defenses. Not to mention the Cardinals will be without All-Pro cornerback Patrick Peterson for the first six games of the season . 4. New York Jets Former general manger Mike Maccagnan loaded the roster with talent before he was axed in May. Le'Veon Bell will give Sam Darnold an All-Pro threat out of the backfield. He'll be running behind former Oakland guard Kelechi Osemele . Linebacker C.J. Mosley and rookie Quinnen Williams are major upgrades on the defensive side of the ball. If Tom Brady and Bill Belichick weren't entrenched as kings of the AFC East , the Jets would be higher on this list. 3. Tampa Bay Buccaneers The Bucs had major problems on defense last season, but things are looking up after a strong draft. LSU Linebacker Devin White looks like an instant-impact star . Defensive backs Sean Murphy-Bunting, Jamel Dean and Mike Edwards all have a chance to contribute as rookies. With Bruce Arians running the show, there is hope Jameis Winston can finally put it all together. If he does, Tampa will be in the playoff hunt all season long. 2. Detroit Lions The NFC North sure feels wide open this year. An argument can be made that any of the four teams could win the division. As competitive as things appear to be, it's unlikely that any one team runs away with it like the Bears did last season. If Detroit's defensive upgrades pay off and Kerryon Johnson can add balance to the offense, Detroit has as good a chance as any to win the NFC North. 1. Jacksonville Jaguars Jacksonville's fall from grace last year was stunning. The Jaguars were a trendy Super Bowl pick entering the 2018 season, but they fell apart in every way imaginable . Nick Foles should add stability to the offense, and competent quarterback play may be all the team needs to make a playoff push . The defense is still scary good.


Six months ago, Starr Gardy saw a sign that she says changed the course of her life, she told Good Morning America . The sign was on the window of Lashonda Pugh's car, asking for someone to donate their kidney to her son Daniel Jones Jr. Jones lives with Alport syndrome, a progressive kidney disease. After seeing the sign, Gardy, a mom of two herself, decided to donate her kidney to Jones. The families met for the first time at the hospital on the day of the surgery. It was a success! Six months ago, Starr Gardy of Charleston, S.C., saw a physical sign that she says changed the course of her life. Parked outside a Walmart, she saw a car with a message scrawled across the rear window. "It said, 'Please help. My son needs a kidney,' and gave his blood type," Gardy told Good Morning America . "I just froze, and I felt so moved and thought, 'What if I could help?'" In a Facebook post , she elaborated: "I was immediately moved and could not shake the feeling that I was the one who could help this person. I started the process of donating a kidney and it has been a roller coaster of emotions for me leading up to May 1." That car belonged to Lashonda Pugh, who worked at the Walmart. Pugh's son, Daniel Jones Jr., lives with Alport syndrome , a progressive kidney disease. The syndrome also causes hearing loss and problems with the eyes, according to to the National Institutes of Health. Jones, 23, had been diagnosed with the disease as a teen and had been treating it with dialysis three times a week since March 2017, when his health took a turn, ABC 4 News reported. That's when Pugh decided to put the message on her car. "I was heartbroken," Pugh said. "I felt like I couldn't help him. Being his mother, I was going to do what I could to get him through this sickness." In the two years since that first handwritten message scrawled in marker, Pugh has updated the message to a full-on wrap, complete with a picture of her son. But it would be nearly two years until Gardy saw it and intervened. "I [asked] my kids, 'How would you feel if mommy donated a kidney to somebody?' They were both OK with it and my husband was like, 'Whatever you want to do is fine with me,'" Gardy told GMA. "I think later on he started to feel super moved by it all, too." So they went through with it. At this time, it seems the procedure was a success. Both families met for the first time afterward at Charleston Hospital, Pugh told GMA. "It felt like she was family," Pugh said. "We hugged and cried and I thanked her for giving my son a second chance at life." "Meeting Daniel and his family was more than I could have ever imagined," Gardy wrote on Facebook. "They are the sweetest, most kind family and I feel so grateful to have our families instantly connected. This reward of love is the best reward of all. I'm so proud to say Daniel's new kidney started to work in him immediately." Jones said the whole thing felt like "a dream come true." He continued: "I can't repay her for it, so all I could do is thank her." Related Video: Son Donates Kidney to His Mom in Time for Mother's Day (Provided by WXIA-TV Atlanta)

Maverick Vinales criticised Jorge Lorenzo for causing a four-bike crash in MotoGP's Catalan GP, saying the Honda rider tends to make "rookie mistakes" and that he was needlessly aggressive. Running fourth less than two laps into MotoGP's Catalan GP, Lorenzo was looking set for the best race of his Honda tenure so far - only to lose control of his bike at Turn 10, and collect Vinales, Andrea Dovizioso and Valentino Rossi. Vinales, who received the biggest hit of the four but walked away uninjured, said that Lorenzo didn't need to make an overtaking attempt at Turn 10 as he should have just waited until main straight due to Yamaha's notorious top speed deficit. "I saw him on the inside I tried to avoid the crash but I think one bike touch my rear tyre and I just fly. I try to avoid the clash but was impossible," said Vinales. "Honestly, this corner is always difficult but come on, you are fourth in the first lap, you can overtake me in straight, we are slow. "You only need to wait for four corners to overtake me. Also in the warm-up lap [on the] inside he overtake without a reason, I didn't understand. "Also in Mugello he had some problems with [Jack] Miller on the warm-up lap. I don't know, sometimes, if you ask me, looks like a rookie mistake and he is five-time world champion. Sometimes we have to think on the bike. "Even if he is a great rider, he has a lot of talent but come on, you can't win the race in two laps." Vinales hopes that Lorenzo will be relegated to the back of the grid in the following Assen race as a penalty. He added that it was a particularly poor incident as he "destroyed" Dovizioso's championship. "Last on the grid, he took out four riders. If he [only] took out somehow myself or Valentino, we are not fighting for the championship, it is a race incident but okay, is not so bad. "But he took out also Andrea that is fighting for the championship so today he destroyed my, Valentino's race and Dovizioso's championship a little bit because it is pretty hard to recover 25 points. I hope the race direction is severe as they were with me yesterday." Rossi refused to also call for a penalty for Lorenzo, but said that it was a "great shame" to lose out on a potential podium finish. "Today I feel very good, I arrive from a good weekend. I was behind [Danilo] Petrucci and I was a bit faster than him," Rossi said. "I want to try to overtake but I overtake in the wrong moment because I arrive fast to Turn 10 and after I see the crash in front and unfortunately I cannot avoid the bike of Jorge. "I try to not crash but the bike come below my tyres and at the end I also crash. I have also a little bit of pain in the ankle because my foot remain between the two bikes. "About the penalty, the race direction will decide. I don't have to say nothing." Additional reporting by Oriol Puigdemont

Q: How can I keep my kids safe in rising temperatures this summer? A: The Philadelphia region has already experienced the first heat wave of the summer and it likely won't be the last. Children are more vulnerable than adults to dramatic changes in body temperature, and for them, it can be much more costly. Heat exhaustion is a condition that includes heavy sweating, increase in body temperature, and rapid pulse as a result of your body overheating. While heat exhaustion is less severe than heatstroke, if untreated, it can become a potentially life-threatening illness. Risk factors that cause certain children to be more susceptible to heat exhaustion or heatstroke include being overweight or obese, sunburned, dehydrated, or having experienced prolonged exposure to high heat. Early signs of heat exhaustion and heatstroke may be difficult to recognize in children. Initial symptoms include dizziness, headaches, and weakness. Symptoms can progress over time to include nausea or vomiting, rapid breathing, elevated heart rate, red skin, confusion, and a body temperature of 103 or higher. If you recognize initial signs of heat exhaustion or heatstroke in a child, it is important to begin lowering the child's body temperature as quickly as possible. Bringing them to an air-conditioned or shaded area, removing excess clothing, and encouraging them to drink fluids, especially those containing salt and sugar, are all simple and effective measures. In addition, placing a cool, wet cloth on their head or the back of their neck should help to reduce body temperature. If symptoms don't improve, call your pediatrician or 911. Heat exhaustion and heatstroke are avoidable, even in this hot weather. Here are a few tips to prevent these conditions: Hydrate regularly. Keeping kids hydrated will protect against overheating, helping their bodies to produce sweat and maintain a normal body temperature throughout the day. The recommended amount of water intake can vary based on kids' size and weight, but a general rule of thumb is to drink as many 8-ounce cups of water as their age until children reach 9 years. So for instance, a 5-year-old child should drink about five 8-ounce cups a day. If your children are participating in organized sports, talk with the coach about making sure the kids have frequent water breaks and shade on the sidelines. When my kids were younger, I often brought a fan that sprayed a fine mist of cool water on the sidelines. Find the shade. Moving kids out of direct sunlight can help maintain their body temperature and fight against heat exhaustion if they are starting to get too hot. It can be difficult to coax kids to move inside when they're enjoying themselves, but even a few minutes can make a huge difference. Dress appropriately. Wearing loose-fitting, lightweight clothing can help prevent bodies from unnecessarily holding on to heat. Dark clothing can attract the sun and cause a child's body to heat up at a faster rate. Allowing the body to sweat and cool itself naturally gives kids the best chance of maintaining a healthy body temperature under the pressure of the sun. Breathable shoes and hats can also fight against overheating. Prevent sunburn. Sunburn isn't just painful and damaging to skin, it also affects the body's ability to cool itself. It's important that kids apply sunscreen generously and often. Wearing a big hat and sunglasses can help protect the face, too. Don't let the heat ruin your summer fun. If you think your child is overheating, play it safe and obtain medical care.

Drake went next level with his choice of attire for Game 1 of the NBA Finals in Toronto on Thursday. The Raptors superfan and team ambassador wore a Dell Curry Raptors throwback jersey. He even had a band around his arm, making it look like he was ready to play. Lmao Drake really thinks he's playing tonight pic.twitter.com/WdXXKgEUtA   Kenny Ducey (@KennyDucey) May 31, 2019 Drake is wearing an autographed Dell Curry Raptors jersey. That's some next level trolling. pic.twitter.com/DgfkAX2SYM   Josh Lewenberg (@JLew1050) May 31, 2019 Dell Curry is the father of Golden State Warriors star Steph Curry. Dell played 16 seasons in the NBA, including his final three with the Raptors. Maybe this was Drake's clever way of reminding the Curry family they have some ties to the Raptors, even if they will be puling for Steph to win the NBA title. Drake's conduct at games has been a topic throughout the postseason. The NBA even talked with him about his contact with Raptors coach Nick Nurse on the sideline during a playoff game.

Mark Wahlberg is not a football player, but he once played one in a movie. The actor, who played former Eagles receiver Vince Papale in Invincible, worked out with Baker Mayfield in Los Angeles this week. Wahlberg posted a video on Instagram of their Wednesday workout. Mayfield's fiancee, Emily Wilkinson, joined them at F45 gym in Sherman Oaks, California. "Another really good workout ,'' Mayfield said on the video, via Mary Kay Cabot of cleveland.com. "I didn't know what to expect coming in. The guy knows what he's doing. He does. He's a tough guy. He's a tough guy." Mayfield and Wilkinson will marry next weekend. The Browns quarterback then will work out with Odell Beckham Jr., Jarvis Landry , Antonio Callaway and other teammates in Los Angeles before training camp practices begin in Berea, Ohio, on July 25.

Robert Mueller defended the credibility of the 22 months he and his team spent investigating Russian election interference and possible obstruction of justice by President Trump. Mueller, 74, was given the opportunity to push back on Trump's attacks on the special counsel's integrity during an appearance before the House Intelligence Committee on Wednesday. The president has often decried the inquiry as a politically biased "witch hunt" meant to undermine his presidency. "When Trump called your investigation a witch hunt, was that false?" House Intelligence Chairman Adam Schiff asked. "I'd like to think so, yes," Mueller said. "Your investigation was not a witch hunt, correct?" the California Democrat pressed. "It is not a witch hunt," the former FBI director replied. Mueller's testimony before the House Intelligence Committee follows his interview with the House Judiciary panel earlier in the day, with Schiff's questioning opening the second session. The chairman also asked Mueller to confirm Kremlin efforts to meddle during the 2016 campaigns to try and benefit Trump, and that the campaign welcomed that support. He additionally grilled Mueller on whether the president had potentially compromising financial interests in Russia, namely the prospect of a Trump Tower in Moscow, despite his denials. Mueller's report , released by the Justice Department with redactions in April, concluded that Russia interfered in the 2016 election but did not establish that any members of the Trump campaign criminally conspired with the Russians in these efforts. Mueller did not reach a conclusion on obstruction of justice , citing DOJ policy against indicting a sitting president, but Attorney General William Barr and then-Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein concluded there was insufficient evidence for such a crime in the summary the Justice Department released preceding the report. Democrats argue Barr misled the public and that by laying out 10 instances of possible obstruction in his report, Mueller left it up to Congress to decide whether Trump obstructed justice.

NORTH HALEDON   Two housing projects, recently approved to be built on Belmont Avenue, will enhance a section of the borough cluttered with industrial uses, the mayor said. The projects, which will bring a total of 230 units to vacant land at 920 Belmont Ave. and 987 Belmont Ave., were foreseen in a redevelopment plan that has guided officials in their quest to spur construction between Overlook Avenue and Vine Street. "This was what the whole plan was about   to develop an area that everyone thought was blighted," said Mayor Randy George. "By doing what we did, we jump-started development." The project, at 920 Belmont Ave., known as the Doretsky tract, will include 180 units, five of them for low- to moderate-income households. The redevelopment plan was amended last year to increase the allowable building height at the property from three to four stories. As a result, the Montville-based developer, Diversified Realty Advisors, a limited liability company, drastically reduced the project's number of buildings. The project will have four apartment buildings and a clubhouse. An initial proposal called for 24 buildings. It will include 84 one-bedroom units, 95 two-bedroom units and a three-bedroom unit. The Doretsky tract is the largest parcel in the redevelopment zone, taking up half of it with 19.2 acres. LOCAL: Preschoolers reunite with sanitized stuffed animals RELATED: North Haledon paves way for 180-unit complex LAW ENFORCEMENT: North Haledon police chief retires It is about 500 feet south of Belmont Estates, a complex of 34 town houses, at 944 Belmont Ave. About 1,000 feet north of that address, another cluster of town homes, called Mountain Falls, will be built at 987 Belmont Ave. That 5.2-acre project will include 50 units in five buildings   a one-bedroom unit, 48 two-bedroom units and a three-bedroom unit. Eight units were to be affordable housing, but the borough and local developer, Joseph Sasso, are negotiating to possibly reduce that number. The borough also is in talks with Sasso and Diversified Realty to ink deals for annual payments in lieu of taxes, or PILOT agreements. A similar pact with the developer of Belmont Estates says the borough is owed 10 percent of the annual revenue from the project's market-rate units for 10 years, and the same amount from its affordable-housing units for 15 years. Charges go up, incrementally, for three decades. The in-lieu-of payments represent money that otherwise would be paid in taxes to the county and local school district. "It's a good deal for the town," the mayor said, "because we get all of this revenue. We make a tremendous amount of money."

San Francisco International Airport is warning travelers to expect delays next month. A key runway will be closed for repairs between Sept. 7 and 27. The delays are expected to be worse for short-haul flights (though all domestic and international flights could be affected) between Wednesday and Friday, which is the busiest part of the travel week. To try and mitigate the problem, SFO has worked with airlines to reduce their flight volume by about 13 percent. But even with that planning, SFO is still anticipating delays between 30 minutes and 2 hours. So if you're planning to fly out of the airport between Sept. 7-27, your best bet are early morning flights, as SFO anticipates delays will start after 9 a.m. during those 20 days. ALSO: Flight delayed at SFO? The Wag Brigade is on the way. As disruptive as the work may seem, the airport insists it chose the September dates to avoid the busiest travel seasons during the summer and holiday season. Plus, they need weather to be dry, and September in the Bay Area usually isn't rainy. The reason for the closure is construction of a new base on a 1,900-foot stretch of Runway 28L, which SFO explains is one of two runways at the airport used mostly for arrivals. The part of 28L being redone is where it intersects runways 1L and 1R, which are used mostly for departures. "These runway intersections are the most heavily traveled areas of the entire runway system at SFO, with more than 68% of all flights crossing these intersections," the airport said in a press release. This will be the second time in just over two years major work is being done on the runway; 28L was entirely repaved in spring 2017. It was during that resurfacing work that engineers discovered the base layer was showing signs of cracking, too. Now, those issues are finally being addressed. According to the airport, the project is expected to cost about $16 million. It is federally funded. Alix Martichoux is an SFGate digital editor.

GREENSBORO, N.C.   It was another stellar performance for nascent pro Viktor Hovland at the Wyndham Championship, but in the end even a fourth-place finish wasn't enough to secure a PGA Tour card for next year. Hovland was low amateur at both the Masters and U.S. Open earlier this year, and he has now finished inside the top-20 in four of five starts as a professional. That includes his performance this week at Sedgefield Country Club, where he went 64-65 over the weekend to finish at 19 under, three shots behind winner J.T. Poston. "I feel like I've just been playing better and better every single week," Hovland said. "Obviously this is my best finish throughout the five tournaments that I played. I've just got to keep it going in the Korn Ferry Finals and hopefully I'll make it through." Hovland has watched former NCAA standouts Matthew Wolff and Collin Morikawa win Tour events in recent weeks, and he hoped to join them with a victory Sunday that would have qualified him for the playoffs that begin next week. While a tie for second would have left him out of the field for The Northern Trust, it still would have meant enough FedExCup points for a full PGA Tour card in 2020. Full-field scores from the Wyndham Championship Full coverage of the Wyndham Championship Instead he fell 67 points short, the equivalent of a 12th-place finish, and will now head to the Korn Ferry Finals with hopes of earning one of 25 PGA Tour cards available in the three-event series. "Shot a couple good rounds or really low rounds, but mostly it's just been very consistent," Hovland said. "I think that gives me a lot of confidence going into the (Finals), because there are three tournaments and I know that if I just play my game, I should make it through." Hovland's point total only included his results since turning pro, meaning he received no credit for his T-12 finish at Pebble Beach or his T-32 result at Augusta National since those came when he was an amateur. While that technicality ultimately cost Hovland guaranteed status for next season, he harbored no ill feelings. "I already knew that it wasn't going to count. So I mean, it is what it is," Hovland said. "I just should have played a little bit better and it wouldn't have been a problem. No, I don't have any complaints." Should Hovland fail to secure a card at Finals, he would retain at least status on the developmental Korn Ferry Tour for 2020 with the option of accepting up to seven sponsor invites into PGA Tour events in an effort to gain his card.


The Texans may want to hire Patriots executive Nick Caserio to be the new G.M. in Houston, but Caserio has to want the job. And the job has to carry enough authority to allow the Texans to hire Caserio over any objection of his current employer. Ian Rapoport of NFL Media reports that the Texans "hope" to interview Caserio , but that it currently isn't known whether that will occur. Caserio has spent 18 years with the Patriots. For the past decade, he has served as the team's director of player personnel. Before he can become the Texans G.M., he'll have to want to make the move. The job also will require the kind of authority that would prevent the Patriots from blocking the hire. Obviously, the Texans would also have to want Caserio. John McClain of the Houston Chronicle pointed out over the weekend that the Texans wanted Caserio when replacing Rick Smith in early 2018, and that the Texans likely want Caserio again .


Murtaja Qureiris, the 18-year-old who had been facing the death penalty in Saudi Arabia, has been spared execution and sentenced to 12 years in prison, according to a source familiar with the matter. The source told CNN that Qureiris, who was arrested at the age of 13 by Saudi authorities, could be released by 2022. Qureiris's sentence includes time served since his arrest in 2014, with the four final years on probation, leaving him with three years left in prison. A Saudi official, speaking on the condition of anonymity, confirmed that timeline to Reuters . CNN has reached out to the Saudi government for comment. International pressure had been mounting on the kingdom after CNN reported on Qureiris's case . In Austria, the country's parliament, voted to close a Saudi-backed center for interfaith dialogue , in protest against the detention of Qureiris. Qureiris was 10 years old when he committed at least one of the acts alleged in his charge sheet. He was charged with accompanying his activist brother, Ali Qureris, on a motorcycle ride to a police station in the eastern Saudi city of Awamiya, where Ali allegedly threw Molotov cocktails at the facility. His other alleged crime includes attending his brother's funeral which later became a rally. Qureiris has denied the charges and said that the confessions, which the prosecution has largely relied on, were obtained under duress. At the time of arrest, Qureiris was considered by lawyers and activists to be the youngest known political prisoner in Saudi Arabia. Murtaja Qureiris is from a Shia family in the eastern province of the majority Sunni Saudi Arabia. In April, Saudi Arabia announced it had executed 37 men who, according to rights group Reprieve, were mostly from the kingdom's Shia minority. At least three of the men executed were minors at the time of the commission of alleged crimes, court documents reviewed by CNN and Reprieve showed . All three were arrested for violence the government says was committed during protests around the time of the Arab Spring. But the prosecution relied heavily on confessions which the prisoners said were extracted from them. In the court proceedings, they said that they were tortured, the confessions made under duress. The country has one of the highest rates of execution in the world, and has frequently been criticized by rights groups for executing people who were minors at the time of the commission of crimes. Amnesty International responded to the news about Qureiris's case on Twitter Sunday : "Much relief to learn that Saudi authorities confirm that #MurtajaQureiris will NOT be sentenced to death. #EndDeathPenalty #SaudiArabia."


NASA is expanding its efforts to bring 3D printing to space . The agency has given Made In Space a $73.3 million contract to demonstrate the ability to 3D-print spacecraft parts in orbit using Archinaut One (shown above), a robotic manufacturing ship due to launch in 2022 or later. The vessel will fly aboard a Rocket Lab Electron rocket and 3D-print two 32-foot beams on each side, with each unfurling two solar arrays. The completed arrays could produce up to five times more power than the solar panels you normally find on spacecraft this size, NASA said. Made In Space has already 3D-printed beams in 2017, when it used a NASA location that simulated some of the conditions of space. This, of course, is another challenge entirely -- it's introducing microgravity along with a lack of human support if things go wrong. This is the start of a second phase of a partnership between the two companies. If successful, it could alter how NASA and others approach building and fixing spacecraft. This could lead to building spacecraft (albeit smaller ones at this stage) in orbit, of course, but it could also let space agencies launch small satellites that receive large power collectors once they're floating above Earth. It could also lead to fewer spacewalks by having robots build items that would otherwise require human involvement. Star Trek -like orbital shipyards are still a long, long way off, but this demo is a step in the right direction. NASA


Kawhi Leonard was in heavy work mode over the past year as he geared up for a championship run with the Toronto Raptors. Now that he has won the title, it's time for him to kick back a little and enjoy himself. And Leonard is showing everyone just how to do that. Raptors big man Serge Ibaka shared videos on Twitter Tuesday of him asking questions to several of his teammates as part of his "how hungry are you?" series. Kawhi's answers went viral. pic.twitter.com/NKBybK4IlL   Serge Ibaka (@sergeibaka) June 19, 2019 Between this and the way he ended his speech at the team parade , Leonard is showing the world he is really a "fun guy" as he claimed. And what's Toronto's reward for winning the championship? The Raptors have to sweat out the next few weeks as they wait to see what Leonard does in free agency. A report says he is focused on the Raptors and one other team .

Lakeville shoppers did a double take when Hy-Vee opened its new store there in 2016. Along with the usual assortment of produce, meats, bread and dairy, stood a 3,300 square feet F&F department filled with clothing for women, men and kids. The European fast fashion line was moderately-priced at $8 to $45, but it's been phased out of all stores in the last couple of months. When it was introduced, Hy-Vee chief executive Randy Edeker said it was an example of the depth of selection that Hy-Vee customers expect. "Whether it's gourmet food or clothes, we have to adapt to the needs of our customers," he said. F&F is being replaced by the Canadian brand Joe Fresh in select stores, mostly in the Twin Cities. Sixteen of Hy-Vee's 263 stores will feature Joe Fresh, including Robbinsdale, Eagan, Lakeville, Brooklyn Park, Shakopee, Cottage Grove and Savage. Stores in Plymouth, New Hope and Oakdale will not stock it. "We transitioned our fashion retail partnership to Joe Fresh to offer larger product diversity with Midwestern styles that we believe will be appealing to the Hy-Vee shopper," said Darren Baty, executive vice president of non-foods for Hy-Vee, in a statement. A Hy-Vee spokesperson said F&F's selection didn't meet the needs of a mom with kids looking for good, well-made, affordable basics. By partnering with Joe Fresh, Hy-Vee is getting an apparel maker that specializes in clothing sold in supermarkets. The line is sold in 1,500 Loblaws stores, Canada's largest grocer. "Clearly, Loblaws understands the grocery customer to be in so many stores," said Phil Lempert, a supermarket analyst who founded Supermarket Guru . "It's more conservative styling than F&F." Hy-Vee is not the first supermarket to add clothing. Aldi, Lidl and Kroger have done so in select stores, and general merchandisers Target and Walmart added groceries to their non-food selection decades ago. Why add clothing? It's a higher profit margin item in a low margin business. "Food margins are tighter than ever before so grocers look to clothing, beauty aids, coffee and chocolate bars to make a little extra," Lempert said. Twin Cities' stores will carry a varying amount of Joe Fresh. Robbinsdale, for example, stocks only the children's line, which is already on the shelf (shown) priced from $7 to $29. The remaining Twin Cities' stores will receive the Joe Fresh line in late August or mid-September. Edeker's goal is to have 20 Hy-Vee stores in the Twin Cities, possibly adding four to five stores per year in the future. No new locations have been announced in the Twin Cities for 2020.     ©2019 the Star Tribune (Minneapolis) Visit the Star Tribune (Minneapolis) at www.startribune.com Distributed by Tribune Content Agency, LLC.


Martin Kaymer fired an opening 5-under 67 and sits just one shot off the lead at the BMW International Open, which was suspended Thursday for darkness after a nearly-three-hour weather delay for lightning and heavy rain. Kaymer, playing in front of his home crowd in Munich, notched four of his five birdies on the back nine of Golf Club Munchen Eichenried. He is 5 under, right behind leader Andrea Pavan. "As a German, it's rare that we have these chances," said Kaymer, who won the 2008 BMW International Open. "If you're from Great Britain or America, you play many tournaments in those countries. It's also a little bit tricky [playing in front of big crowds]. You know this will happen because I've played here for 15 years or so, it leads to a little adjustment on the first few holes, but it's very fun. "I didn't make many major mistakes. I played solid   I didn't play great, but I played solid." Full-field scores from the BMW International Open The 34-year-old Kaymer, an 11-time European Tour winner, hasn't won on the tour since winning the 2014 U.S. Open at Pinehurst. That is his last win anywhere. Pavan is coming off his best season on the tour, finishing 34 th in the Race to Dubai and winning the D+D Real Czech Masters. But he has yet to notch a top-10 finish so far this season. Oliver Wilson is tied with Kaymer for second. Lee Westwood and Jeff Winther share fourth at 4 under. Matt Wallace is part of a huge logjam at 3 under that also includes Alex Noren, who is among the 33 players who will have to return Friday morning to wrap up their first rounds.
