That work might involve having an open discussion with a partner or online relationships have become more common While they offer some benefits—such as reducing loneliness and easing social anxiety—Dr Lahr emphasizes that in-person connections provide the most significant mental and physical health benefits "Online relationships can help with loneliness and sometimes can be an easier starting point to a relationship," he said "But getting the full benefit happens once you get into a real-life relationship." online relationships may contribute to increased screen time keeping individuals more attached to their devices "Getting out into the real world is always going to have more benefits than being online," Lahr said \"If you're in a healthy relationship and you are to become ill it's normally less intense or just doesn't last as long,\" Lahr said \"An unhealthy relationship is bad for your mental health and has been ranked as one of the number one stressors,\" he added then that's probably a sign that there's some work that needs to be done.\" \"Online relationships can help with loneliness and sometimes can be an easier starting point to a relationship,\" he said \"But getting the full benefit happens once you get into a real-life relationship.\" \"Getting out into the real world is always going to have more benefits than being online,\" Lahr said and general news updates from News on 6 delivered right to your inbox Debbie was born to Emelia Stubbers and Wilfred Frei Nov She was one of seven children who grew up on a farm outside of Ferdinand graduated valedictorian from Prairie High School at Cottonwood in 1971 and received her bachelor's degree from Carroll College at Helena where she was voted most outstanding scholar Both she and Chris attended medical school at the University of Chicago After medical school they moved to Birmingham where she completed her residency in internal medicine at the University of Alabama while Chris finished his surgical residency Debbie earned her sub-specialty degree in oncology specifically in bone marrow transplantation Debbie worked at the Medical University of South Carolina as an associate professor in hematology and oncology She was the director of the bone marrow transplant service and became a bone marrow transplant specialist Her dedication to her field of medicine was appreciated by all of her patients This love for Debbie was exemplified when one of her patients asked Debbie to help her carry the Olympic torch for the 1996 Atlanta Games Debbie and Chris lived in Charleston until their move to Jackson in 2008 Survivors include her loving and devoted husband Christopher Lahr physician of Jackson;

Dr. Stevan Lahr shares insights on why politics can be so overwhelming and offers practical strategies to manage political anxiety SARTELL — Austin Lahr was never a quarterback growing up playing football Stephen football team needed a quarterback in the seventh game of its season last fall The Sabres open the 2024 season on Thursday Hentges — now in his 13th season as head coach — has switched up the Sabres' offensive scheme to better suit the personnel he has Sartell will use a triple-option to start the season with Lahr having the option to hand it off throw on the run or take the ball and run it himself "We're making more of a commitment to the run game," Hentges said "We want to use Austin's legs and then with the option we have guys like Jameson Kremer and Andrew Tavale he can hand it off to Our strength is in our offensive line and at running back 215-pound Tavale is a load and will start at fullback while Kremer will start at one of the "T-back" positions Tavale had 29 carries for 54 yards and a TD last season and had 10 catches for 69 yards Tavale is excited about running behind an offensive line that includes seniors Charlie Sundell (6-4 Aidan O'Hara (6-3 188) and Mason Leen (6-0 "I was at wing back last year and I missed playing fullback Our offensive line is big and I like running behind them," Tavale said "I won't be the only one running it though Our coaches want to keep us fresher this year The Sabres lost their three top running backs their starting quarterback and almost half of their defensive starters to injury last year Hentges and his coaching staff have committed themselves to rotating players in and out as much as they ever have We're going to limit reps for our starters as much as we can this year," Hentges said "We have a bunch of young guys who have worked hard and who I think can step in A lot of people are going to get a chance to play this year That will keep us fresh and hopefully injury-free." Lahr has some solid receivers to throw to in 6-foot Frieler had 24 catches for 242 yards and a TD last season while Allen hauled in two catches for 35 yards Tavale and running back Anders Larson will also be a big part of the passing game Frieler spent a lot of time working with Lahr in the offseason "We definitely know what to look for more this season and how to attack a defense," Frieler said "It's been great working with Austin this summer We developed a really good chemistry and got to know each other even better Everyone was committed to improving this summer We spent a lot of time in the weight room and on speed training We had three or four guys squatting over 375 pounds That was something you wouldn't have seen last year at this time." Frieler returns to lead the defensive backfield which also brings back senior cornerback Owen Vinje-Stark (5-7 263) and Sundell will lead the Sabres' 3-4 defensive front Sampson will miss the first week or two of the season while recovering from a broken wrist he suffered earlier this summer He has a big frame and we like the way he's practicing," Hentges said "Peter Do has been a big surprise and we can't wait to see him play up front Our biggest goal is control the ball offensively so we can keep our defensive guys fresh We had too many turnovers last year that kept them out there too long." feels the Sabres have to be more physical to have more sustained success on defense "All of our linebackers are back and we have size up front I think we're going to be tested a lot in these first four games Hopefully that will help us toward the end of the season." Hentges' focus remains on trying to get better every week There's such a fine line between winning and losing in this game," Hentges said things start to snowball on a team and it's hard to stop that there were some weeks we weren't competitive but the guys would come back the next week and put up a good fight "We know our section is one of the best in the state I think the changes we've made are going to be exciting for everyone to watch starting Thursday."

Three days earlier, Hurricane Helene had barreled through Western North Carolina, turning life upside down with flooding and mudslides that leveled entire neighborhoods, swept away homes and businesses, and killed at least 96 people wiped out roads leading to treatment plants I had been without running water since the day after the storm but none to spare for other household uses I hadn’t been able to flush my toilet for two days and the smell of raw sewage was getting worse by the hour But my friend had managed to score a few gallons of non-potable water at his work “This should be good for two flushes,” he said handing me a couple of white plastic buckets The sound of flushing had never been so beautiful we will have lived without safe drinking water for two and a half months—conditions most of us couldn’t have imagined before the storm Helene and its aftermath have highlighted a climate change truth we all have to reckon with: The effects of a weather disaster go on long after the rain has stopped and those effects are complex and hard to prepare for Sourcing water for household use “takes a remarkable amount of time,” says Asheville resident Ricardo Seijo “Like way more than one would think.” Seijo he filled up his bathtub with water to use for flushing and handwashing But he was in the minority; Asheville is 300 miles from the coast so most residents didn’t know the protocol and many didn’t have extra water on hand the city sent alerts that water access would probably be lost With area roads seriously impacted by the storm deliveries couldn’t make it to grocery stores so it was nearly impossible to purchase bottled water and local government had the first water station set up downtown Here residents could fill up containers (if they had any—none were provided at the site) with drinking water but we were initially limited to one gallon per person That was not nearly enough to drink and flush Many residents hauled water from creeks and pools to use for flushing Brooke Stanich-Holdren drew from a creek at the golf course near her home every few days “But it would not be accessible to someone who wasn’t able-bodied The buckets were super heavy!” Local Facebook groups filled up with posts on how to MacGyver a shower out of a pump sprayer how to effectively wash dishes using the least amount of water and even how to use kitty litter in the toilet to mitigate the odor of sewage that was now emanating from our bathrooms The challenge of flushing created not just a quality-of-life issue Without a clear way for people to flush after using the toilet and diarrheal illnesses,” says Jennifer Mullendore the medical director for Buncombe County Health and Human Services epidemiologists from the state have found a recent increase in cases of a bacteria called campylobacter in the region leading to an uptick in gastrointestinal illness characterized by vomiting and diarrhea The “increase does appear to be storm-related,” says Mullendore She thinks it was caused mainly by inadequate handwashing and unsafe food preparation practices due to lack of clean water combined with increased contact with feces due to the inability to flush regularly Volunteers hauled water into high-risk areas flushing the toilets of folks who were unable to source flushing water themselves But such a piecemeal approach was bound to let some of the most vulnerable fall through the cracks That’s why the city decided to put non-potable water back into residents’ homes rather than waiting until the water was safe to drink Asheville City Water Resources Department public information officer Clay Chandler explained the calculation to me in an email: “Public health (basic sanitation like the ability to flush toilets) and essential public safety (like the ability of the fire department to hook into a hydrant and fight fires) were the reasons we decided to pressurize the system as soon as possible” and return water to residents before it was potable non-potable water began flowing to residents’ homes With the return of water came the ability to flush as often as needed which dramatically improved our quality of life The city issues daily notices to boil water in both English and Spanish These notices state that “there is contamination due to impacts from Hurricane Helene … Your water may look cloudy and/or have a chlorine odor It is Required for customers to vigorously boil tap water for 1 minute before consuming it.” I asked Chandler for specifics about the risks of widespread use of non-potable water “Bottled water or water from an alternate source is obviously ideal and is recommended if available,” he wrote Sourcing safe drinking water is now a regular and time-consuming feature of daily life in Asheville There are five government-run water distribution sites across the county plus dozens of unofficial relief centers at churches Matthew Romanowski makes two to three trips for water each week where he was loading up on drinking water at a distribution site “Just dealing with getting water,” he says “takes a lot of time.” Other residents rely on acquaintances with well water Stanich-Holdren gets her household’s potable water “from a friend’s house that has a well about 30 minutes outside of town.” Likewise and fill up on drinking water every few days With the return of potable water more than a month away accepting the time spent waiting in line or driving to get drinking water and the hassle of boiling water for household use for the foreseeable future before James Lahr of West Bend takes a nap he insists his mother reads him his favorite book For James, the book is "James and Sonic." The story follows James and his friend Sonic going on an adventure to work together to save the entire city this book is different than any other children's book: James wrote and illustrated the entire book.And on May 28 at Whitefish Bay High School James and his family were treated to the night of James' life: His book was set to music Professional composer Nick Bizub created music to go with the book and the Whitefish Bay High School Wind Ensemble learned the song The book and the illustrations were projected on a big screen while the original music told the story director of bands for the Whitefish Bay School District "This is a neat thing to experience in high school Everyone put in a lot of work," said senior clarinet player "I know (James) fought hard to get through his sickness; giving him something like this is cool." "It is something (James) will remember for a long time," Groff said The event that led to James writing "James and Sonic" occurred almost two years ago James was rushed to the emergency room with such extreme abdominal pain he could not stand He was then diagnosed with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma June 16 After months of hospital stays and surgeries James finished his treatment and achieved remission in October 2022 The nonprofit JR Hearts, which helped James' family pay a significant amount of their hospital bills, partnered with Nashville-based nonprofit Sing Me a Story to make the May 28 event a reality which serves "children and families in need through the imaginative stories of their children and the power of music," according to its website gave James a blank book where he could write and illustrate a story on anything he wanted 'He chose the story line and took off with it,' said James' motherWhen James created the storyline for "James and Sonic," the story just came naturally to him And some parts of it paralleled James' life "He chose the storyline and took off with it," she said she asked him clarifying questions as they went along and the story is "100% in James' words." James then drew the pictures for the story and "absolutely loved seeing the book come together," said Lahr took place at a campsite because James loves camping in the family camper James also has a younger sister in the book The story follows James and his best friend Sonic on an adventure where they have to work together to save the entire city James was able to do "good moves," James wrote in the story He called James "Golden James" because he could fly and do "cool moves." But it is the ending that James wrote which really touched his mother: James shares the emerald with everyone so everyone has the power "So that everyone can turn into the golden everyone." "He is all about helping everyone else," Lahr said When the 8-minute life-changing performance ended the crowd clapped and clapped while James waved His mother said Kleenex was shared with her entire family He kept waving at people who walked by him when the concert was over and saying I was the winner of the night," he exclaimed to his mother on his way home More: Washington County chapter of Guitars 4 Vets helps veterans cope with PTSD through music More: A Taco John's is coming to South Main Street in West Bend; construction is underway Cathy Kozlowicz can be reached at 262-361-9132 or cathy.kozlowicz@jrn.com.

ALL RIGHTS RESERVED I couldn’t have a job or be a lawyer because I didn’t do all the things necessary. What I was allowed to do was write. If they saw me over in the corner scribbling on a piece of paper they would say: ‘That is just a nigger over in the corner scribbling on a piece of paper.’ Nobody said: ‘Hey, you can’t do that.’ So I felt free. The Hill, that ‘amalgam of the unwanted’ as he called it, turned out to be Wilson’s university, ‘the singular most important thing in my development as a writer and a playwright’. His blues lens turned the drama of the streets into ‘life being lived in all its timbre and horrifics’: August Wilson and Lloyd Richards in 1987. Her glib palaver is most regrettable in her account of Wilson’s relationship with his major director, Lloyd Richards, whom he called ‘my guide, my mentor, my provocateur’. Their collaboration on six plays of the cycle was as intimate and as important to American theatre as that of Elia Kazan and Tennessee Williams. In both cases, the plays were a kind of co-creation, and the alliances are what made them shine. August, over twelve years, our pattern of work has been the same. Through writing, conversation and rewriting, we have attempted to get as complete a script as possible before setting a date for production. Then we have worked in rehearsal and at performance, with my checking with you at every break to be sure that we were on the same track and discussing your thoughts and mine, before giving notes. This was true at rehearsal and at performance. You were my third eye, a position I thought I held for you as a writer. This changed in Boston. You acquired an assistant to whom you dictated and who handed me a sheaf of notes when I was ready to give notes. There was no discussion or exchange which was very valuable. This act split the working relationship in many ways and caused a distance to happen.

This winner is Jil Lahr for her installation “Inherent Vagueness,” which can be seen at the Konschthal Esch alongside the work of the other three finalists. Following the presentation of the finalists’ work and the jury’s deliberation, it was Luxembourgish artist Jil Lahr (born in 1990, lives and works in Hamburg) who was awarded the Luxembourg Encouragement for Artists Prize (Leap) prize 2025. This award is organised every two years to support artists with a connection to Luxembourg. Following a call for entries, an international jury selects four finalists whose work is then presented to the public at an exhibition. The exhibition is usually organised by Les Rotondes, but this year the Konschthal took over that role, as the former establishment is undergoing renovations. Thus, Esch is the place to go to discover the work of Mike Bourscheid, Rosafa Elshan, Jil Lars and Lynn Schneidweller, this year’s finalists. Rozafa Elshan, Lynn Scheidweiler, Jil Lahr and Mike Bourscheid are the finalists for LEAP 2025. Photo: Emile Hengen, Ville d’Esch-sur-Alzette This exhibition follows a month-long residency that the finalists had at the Bridderhaus to prepare their works. The members of the jury were Marie de Gaulejac (3 bis f), Christian Mosar (Konschthal Esch), Pierre-Olivier Rollin (BPS22), Gilles Weidig (collector) and Antje Weitzel (Künstlerhaus Bethanien). The winning artist receives an endowment of €12,500 and all the finalists also benefit from a publication produced as part of the prize. The exhibition is open until 27 April 2025.
