(CNN) — A muchas personas les resulta difícil aceptar la idea de hacer ejercicio regularmente, aunque saben que es bueno para su salud física y mental. Sin embargo, comprometerse con una rutina de ejercicios no implica necesariamente ir al gimnasio o correr por el vecindario.La jardinería es un gran ejemplo de un pasatiempo popular que es accesible y también puede usarse como ejercicio.Trabajar en tu jardín o en tu patio es una fuente de actividad física de moderada a vigorosa para los adultos más jóvenes, mientras que proporciona una actividad física de baja a moderada entre los adultos mayores, según demostraron las investigaciones.

Parents, 5 children forced to jump from window to escape Brockton blaze

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 19:37:43 GMT

Two parents from Brockton are recalling the terrifying moment they and their five children were forced to leap from a second-floor window as a fast-moving fire raced through the multi-family home they live in late Friday night.Crews responding to reported structure fire on Montello Street around 11 p.m. found heavy flames and smoke pouring out of the building. Witnesses said the fire spread so quickly that some people inside didn’t have time to escape.“I just feel numb, but I’m glad my kids are out,” said Myriam Legramb, who was forced to leap from a second-floor window after lowering down her kids.The father said he first checked a door downstairs but realized that was not an option and decided to break a window.“I jumped out and I said to them throw, throw, you’ve got to jump!” he recalled, adding he caught his kids and “broke their fall as best I could.” All five of their children, including their 3- and 2-year-old, are safe a...

How Disney maneuvered to save its Florida kingdom, leaving DeSantis threatening retaliation

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 19:37:43 GMT

(CNN) — In his yearlong battle with Disney, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis has repeatedly leaned on the element of surprise in his attempts to outmaneuver the entertainment giant and its army of executives, high-priced lawyers and politically connected lobbyists.“Nobody can see this coming,” DeSantis told a top Republican legislative leader as they planned a move against Disney last year, he recalled in his new book.But when Disney finally struck back and thwarted, for now, a DeSantis-led state takeover of its long-standing special taxing district, it was the Republican governor who was seemingly caught off guard. The same February morning Disney pushed through an agreement with the district’s outgoing board that secured control of its development rights for decades to come, DeSantis had declared to cameras and supporters, “There’s a new sheriff in town.”Now, weeks after DeSantis signed legislatio...

Bob Raissman: Unlike Leon Rose, Donovan Mitchell can’t hide from the media spotlight of Knicks-Cavs playoff series

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 19:37:43 GMT

The downtime between the Knicks playing out the regular season and their first-round playoff meeting with Cleveland, gives pontificators more time to set expectation levels while turning Donovan Mitchell into the Garden’s Public Enemy No. 1.How exactly did that work out for the Knicks when fans, and Valley of the Stupid Gasbags, targeted Atlanta’s Trae Young two years ago in the playoffs, turning him into Knicks Kryptonite?Cats, like Stephen A. Smith, who is still moaning over the Knicks’ inability to bring Mitchell to the Drecka last summer, view the Cleveland series as a referendum on the “wisdom” of not pulling off a deal with Utah, leaving the door open for the Cavs to finalize a blockbuster trade to acquire the star guard.As if he needed more motivation to succeed in the playoffs, media focus on Mitchell will only serve to sharpen his edge. Yet, unfortunately, unlike Knicks prez Leon Rose, there is no place for Mitchell to hide.Mitchell will be und...

Unemployment fell to 3.5% under Biden. For how much longer?

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 19:37:43 GMT

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Joe Biden keeps seeing good economic news and bad public approval ratings. The unemployment rate fell to 3.5% in March. More than 236,000 jobs were added. But there has been no political payoff for the president.US. adults are skipping past the jobs numbers and generally feeling horrible about the economy. White House aides can list plenty of reasons for the pessimism: high inflation, the hangover from the pandemic and the political polarization that leaves Republicans automatically believing the economy is sour under a Democratic president.Going forward, an emerging challenge for Biden might be the expectation that unemployment will get much worse this year.This is the opinion of the Federal Reserve, which expects the jobless rate to hit 4.5%. And the Congressional Budget Office (5.1%). Even the proposed budget that Biden just put forth models an increase (4.3%) from the current rate. Many Wall Street analysts are, likewise, operating under the shorthand...

Ukraine’s coal miners dig deep to power a nation at war

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 19:37:43 GMT

DNIPROPETROVSK OBLAST, Ukraine (AP) — Deep underground in southeastern Ukraine, miners work around the clock extracting coal to power the country’s war effort and to provide civilians with light and heat.Coal is central to meeting Ukraine’s energy needs following the Russia’s military’s 6-month campaign to destroy power stations and other infrastructure, the chief engineer of a mining company in Dnipropetrovsk province said. Elevators carry the company’s workers underground to the depths of the mine. From there, they operate heavy machinery that digs out the coal and moves the precious resource above ground. It is hard work, the miners said, but essential to keep the country going.“Today, the country’s energy independence is more than a priority,” said Oleksandr, the chief engineer, who, like all the coal miners interviewed, spoke on the condition of giving only his first name for security reasons. Russia’s attacks on Ukraine’s nuclear, thermal and other powe...

Quebec-based luxury spa says customer data compromised in security breach

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 19:37:43 GMT

A Quebec-based luxury spa owner says a data breach may have affected customers who recently bought gift certificates on its platform.Groupe Nordik, which operates three spa locations in Quebec, Winnipeg and Whitby, Ont., says they became aware of suspicious activity on their gift certificate system in late February and that credit card information may have been compromised. In a letter sent to affected customers, the company says the breach included “access to your personal information by a non-authorized third party, from November 4, 2022, to February 27, 2023.”The company says after learning of the breach they immediately shut down the system and hired a third-party cyber security firm to investigate. “We have since enhanced security measures on all Groupe Nordik systems, including the gift certificate system, and will continue to work with the cyber security firm to maximize the protection of our client’s data,” the company said in a statement to Cit...

Small towns reclaim abandoned ski areas as nonprofits

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 19:37:43 GMT

LA VETA, Colorado (AP) — It’s been the longest wait, their whole lives, in fact. But Race Lessar and Landen Ozzello are finally right where they want to be, on a snowy slope close to home, molding snow into a ski jump. Their local ski mountain just reopened. “I’m happy that it’s open for at least one year,” Lessar said. It opened as a nonprofit, and that may be the key. “I didn’t know that there was a hope,” he said. His ties to the mountain are so close, he’s practically named after it. His dad used to race here and named his son for what brought him joy. Chad Lessar first skied on hand-me-down gear, later worked summers at a nearby ranch to earn money for more nimble racing equipment.“We’ve never been very rich,” Chad said of Huerfano, one of the poorest counties in the state. “Its nice to see a little area open up on the cheap,” he said. The ski runs here are short, but the fact it’s affordable just might be enough to keep it up and running.Under the gaze of the impos...
