heat stroke in dogs can be a rapid killer so learning how to cool a dog
down quickly and prevent heatstroke might just save your dog's life join me
in this video where I run through the five key steps to cool a dog down
quickly hi I'm dr. Alex from ourpetshealth.com helping you and your dog to
live a healthier happier life so think about subscribing if that's something
that you're interested in now don't underestimate the importance of cooling
your dog down quickly if you think that they are developing heatstroke in one
study dogs with heatstroke who are cooled by their owners had a 38 percent
chance of dying and that's compared to a 61 percent chance of dying in those dogs
who were not cooled by their owners make no mistake learning how to cool a dog
down quickly can definitely be a lifesaver so make sure that you share
this video with all your dog owning friends and family let's jump into the
five steps and at number one we have to stop any activity move your dog into the
shade or a cooler location and encourage your pet to drink some cool water cool
water is actually better than really cold water and any water is better than
nothing a hot dog quickly becomes a dehydrated
dog and this not only reduces the ability of panting to keep their body
cool it can also be responsible for some of
the complications we see in heatstroke in dogs
dehydration exacerbates organ damage and so makes heatstroke that much more
dangerous carrying water is so important and it is one of my eleven tips to
keeping a dog cool in summer and preventing heatstroke in the first place
so make sure you check out my video that's linked up here and down in the
description below so the second step to cool a dog down quickly is to spray and
soak their coat with tepid or lukewarm water so you might think that using cold
water would be best but this will actually cause your pets body
temperature to become higher and the reason for this is that the cold water
actually causes the outside blood vessels to constrict or become much more
narrow and this effectively has the effect of trapping the heat within the
body's core and that causes a dog's body temperature to climb rather than cool
so using a spray bottle of water bottle hose or even standing your dog in a
stream or a lake will do the job it's hot out then the chances are that all of
these sources won't be too cold as the water in your dog's fur and that price
will have a cooling effect on your dog keeping their coat wet clearly is
therefore important and so be ready to add more water as needed just to keep
them down so my third step in how to cool a dog down quickly is to use a fan
to blow air over your dog this air movement helps to speed up the rate of
evaporation and so helps the dog to cool down that much faster you'll have felt
this yourself getting out of the water on a hot day if there's no wind you'll
feel hot but if there's a breeze you can actually end up feeling quite cold even
when the temperature outside is really high as well as using a fan then you
could move your dog into a spot that's in the wind preferably in the shade too
and when you're driving your dog to the vet you can also just open all the
windows as well as turn on the air conditioning copter for my fourth
cooling step is one to use if your dog has collapsed with heatstroke at home place
an ice pack frozen peas or whatever you have to hand in your dog's groin under
that armpits or on the side of their neck all of these areas are whether
really big blood vessels run which don't constrict to a degree that will trap
heat in the same way that's soaking your dog with cold water will any ice pack
should be wrapped or event cold injury to the skin and their location should be
moved every and a 15-20 minutes or so right my fifth and final step to cool a
dog down quickly is to cover them with a wet towel a towel has the ability to
hold a large amount of water and if a wet towel is placed over a damp dog and
being in a breeze too is even better then it will just help cool your dog
down faster because the towel is not in direct contact with the skin it won't
actually cause narrowing of the blood vessels that the cold water will and as
well as becoming very cold to wick heat away from your dog's body it will also
reduce the need for you to keep adding water to your dog's fur this is clearly
ideal if you're driving to the vet alone with your dog in the back cooling effect
can last much longer without you needing to keep stopping and adding
to that coke so those are the five steps for how to call a dog down quickly move
your dog to a cooler location and encourage your pet to drink cool water
spray and soak their coat with tepid lukewarm water blow air over your dog
ice pack your dog's groin armpits and neck area and place soap towels over
your dog if you've carried out all of these steps then clearly there is one
more vital part to ensuring that your dog survives heat stroke and I've
already alluded to this it is to take your dog to the vet as quickly as
possible so from the same study that I mentioned at the start it was also
reported that if a dog was presented to the vet clinic within 90 minutes of
developing heatstroke then their chance of dying was 27% so about a 1 in 4
chance of dying if though it took longer than 90 minutes then 62% of dogs died
which is more like 2 in 3 and for those dogs that were cooled by their owner and
presented to the vet within 90 minutes well 100% of them survived clearly there
is a risk of death with any dog who develops heatstroke but these figures
they really just highlight how important both cooling a dog down quickly and
rapidly transporting your dog to the vet can be if you know what to do and now
you do then it will only take 5 to 10 minutes to start cooling your dog down
quickly and this is time very well spent if at all possible you should then call
ahead to let your vet know that you're coming and this will give them some time
to get ready to treat your dog as soon as you step foot in the veterinary
clinic again time is of the essence remember though that if you're driving
open the windows and turn on the air conditioning and while time is crucial
Drive Safely having an accident will not help your dog preventing heatstroke is
clearly better than trying to treat it so make sure you check out my 11 tips to
keep your dog cool in summer that's linked in the card on the screen here

family and until next time i'm dr. alex from our pets health because their

DAY 1 OF MY DRY FAST THIS IS A 🔵🔴WEIGH-IN VIDEO🔴🔵 SEE HOW MUCH I LOSS-MY WEIGHT LOSS JOURNEY #P2 - Duration: 13:39.
hey guys today is officially 24 hour period that I have done the drive fast
yesterday I didn't want to really give you too many clues of what I was doing
because I was not sure if I was going to do the dry fast it was just something
that I wanted to do with my partners in crime
fasting Deva go check out her channel her link is in my description of all my
videos now and also tea love they're doing a five-day dry fast and out to
spur of the moment when I had heard that I said at 7-7 yesterday morning that I
would do one - I don't know if I'm gonna go five days I'm going to plate per hour
per day and per how my body is feeling but as of today it has been 20 over 24
hours I have not consumed any food or water
I did a weigh-in because yesterday I did Monday's weigh-in I still was at a stall
my weight was at a hundred and eighty-three pounds still from two weeks
ago but I got on the scale this morning and the skill said something different
now I also have two videos going up this video here letting you know that I'm on
day one of my drive fast and I also have a waves video where I'm actually getting
on the scale coz I'm going to start incorporating those kind of videos where
you actually see me get on the scale and do weigh-ins I'm very close to the end
of phase 1 which is losing the weight and doing weighing videos it's going to
be probably only a few more weeks of weigh-in videos then I'll be on phase 2
and I'll just do videos like I normally do talking about you know health
wellness and helping you guys get on the right track by my own opinion on what I
did that work for me sharing that with you but and
along with that I'll be sharing my journey on Phase two how I basically
keep the weight off and maintain my current weight when I lose the whole
entire 88 pounds but when I got on the scale today even though there's another
video with me on the scale and it's gonna tell you how much I lost and I'll
get into the grand total on that video as well so there's basically a bonus
weigh-in there was one yesterday on Mondays weigh-in and but the number
didn't go down but today the numbers did go down and I have two videos this one
here we're going to tell you how much I lost today and then one after this video
where it will be me getting on the scale and you'll actually see for yourself
that I lost that way um so as of today when I got on the scale yesterday I was
183 183 pounds when I got on the scale I was a hundred and eighty-one pounds down
so I have lost two pounds since starting the dry fast I'm a little over 24 hours
basically I'm going into the second day tomorrow which will be Wednesday the
30th as you want to look at the calendar that will make it at 733 a.m. tomorrow
will be a complete 48 hours on the dry pass now the way my body feels today I
probably will make it obviously do the 48 hour period what gets tricky is when
you get into going into the 72 hour I have also been working out 2 hours a day
I'm not going to stop doing that unless my body shuts me down from doing that
but I'm also trying to conserve energy because I have
do something on Friday I don't drive because that before we are driving so
what I need to do is in walking distance and I need to have my strength to go and
do that which is handle some of my bills for the first of the month and I need
that energy stove if I get up which I probably won't workout that day
I will just exercise from walking going to take care of bills on Friday if I
even make it to Friday I will you know just you know that would be my exercise
when I walk to go take care of my errands so as of today because I have to
write this stuff down I have lost a total of 67 pounds my
beginning weight that I needed to lose in total was 88 pounds I have lost total
pounds lost 67 pounds with 21 pounds left to lose I'm not only doing this dry
fast because of weight loss I've been from the beginning of my journey which
was in January 11 2008 een I have been not wanting to do like I did the first
two times when I had gained weight years ago because I've gained weight this is
my third time but the first two times I lost the weight fast but I lost it on
just scratching the surface yes I was detoxing the body from losing the fat
but I never lost weight on a cellular level so I'm doing two things and this
is why I chose juice fasting juice feasting for my weight loss my majority
of my weight loss and then dry fasting which I prefer to do over water fasting
because trying to not only lose weight but the
main reason people should detox and focus on losing weight is because one
you know when your body and your hormonal system is all cleansed out in
detox on a cellular level weight is not an issue it doesn't matter even if
you're 60 years old or you have menopause if you're hormonal ZAR in tap
they're clean you're flushed out on a cellular cellular level while you're
losing weight while you're on a weight-loss journey you're detoxing on a
cellular level and losing weight weight coming back is not going to be a factor
because you did it right the first time you lost the way and you were detoxing
why you were losing it all so you're well over well overall well-being will
you know become a hundred percent again if you have vision problems or if you
have diabetes or high blood pressure or all these skin conditions that people
have that are all from the foods that we eat in the air that we breathe those
things can clear up and possibly in a lot of cases go away and you could
possibly get off of medications that you're wrong
I'm not a doctor I'm not suggesting that you get off of any medications or that
this is gonna cure anything I'm only talking from my own experience but this
is why I do dry fast in juicing in these kind of detox protocols because I'm not
only trying to lose the weight I'm trying to cleanse and regenerate the
inside of the body if we can get that clean though and feeling new again the
body doesn't know internally you know you can basically trick the body into
thinking that you're younger than you are right now our insides for the most
part even for a 20 year old - our bodies we're old but if we clean
on a cellular level these toxins out of our system we will definitely we don't
live forever but we will live a better quality of life
many people who are thinking about plastic surgery and all these crazy
extreme things might not want to do that when they see how when you cleanse it
inside the outside that's a little beautiful as well your skin your eyes I
mean everything about you will start to shine once you clean on a cellular level
so keep that in mind and just understand why I am and you know fasting diva in
tea love why we are doing this not only for weight loss but we want to detox our
bodies on a cellular level level and that's more deeper than any kind of
weight loss that you're ever going to hear on YouTube usually you hear about
someone need to do one or the other they're detoxing or losing weight we're
doing both so with all that being said because this video will start to get a
little bit along just be looking out for the weigh in video and that's just me on
this getting on the scale so you'll love that that's no more than like a
two-minute video and again it's just real quick recapping that I'm at 181
pounds as of today which is May 29 2008 teen which is Tuesday in perhaps
depending on how I feel I probably will do scale weigh-ins each day or every
other day I don't know how long I'm gonna be on it so I'm not gonna you know
psych myself up or sound cocky with the each day or every other day like I
already have it in my head I'm gonna do five days I don't know how long I'm
gonna do but right now while I'm feeling good and I'm energetic and I'm not
feeling sick I did have a headache yesterday Oh
I went to sleep I woke up I felt refreshed and I even felt like I had
drank water from the night before because I wasn't even feeling dehydrated
but I think a lot of that plays a role with me eating and drinking clean raw
fruits and vegetables for a long time January 11 2008 een so the present time
has been at least four months of eating clean and when within that short period
of time this is why this dry fast head to me is not affecting me like it
could've when I did the first one when I wasn't eating as well as I should have
been it took a toll on me so we I don't know within 48 hours I could get up
there and be like I can't do this guys I mean it something something just hit me
like a ton of bricks I'm feeling weak I can't go on anymore I'm dehydrated
with dry fasting it's it's very imperative that you listen to the body I
think it's 20 times dangerous than water fasting it's more aggressive I prefer
doing dry fasting because I don't feel hungry I don't feel hungry on water fast
either because of the fact that my body is so nutrient if that's even a word by
all the fruits and vegetables from the juices I have been drinking and my body
so cleanse and detox out that I don't get those hunger pains and when it's
time for me to eat I eat and I keep it moving I don't eat to a full I just eat
you I'm satisfied and I'm good you know so you know there's a lot of things that
have changed over these last four months for me not only with the extreme weight
loss but with detoxing and I'm feeling the effects of it and live in a better
quality of life because of how I feel on a daily basis it is true that you know
if there was a choice of being rich and happy I'm glad that when I was a
question over the years I always said I would
rather be happy because my outlook on life I'm happier my anxiety is getting
better and it's all because of how I'm eating and it's all because I made a
choice not only to lose the weight but to detox the body on a cellular level
wild time I'm losing the weight and get myself cleansed up because losing weight
is not really detoxing the body a hundred percent
it's just scratching the surface of it yes you're detoxing a form of detoxing
because you're getting rid of those fat cells that are kept you know detail
butcha you know toxins but it's still not on a cellular level so with that all
being said you guys have a great day I hope you enjoyed this video please give
this video a like and I'll give two shares up I don't see too many people
sharing this video these videos like they should get the share that and get
the lights up leave comments show your support make the video a favorite you
know what I'm saying subscribe to the channel if you look at the content every
single day stop looking at it you know I'm saying and be about it subscribe to

Our everyday assumptions can hurt others. Here's what it takes to change your thinking - Duration: 9:36.
JUDY WOODRUFF: More than 8,000 Starbucks stores closed down across the country today so that
its employees, 180,000-plus, could get anti-bias training.
This comes after an incident last month that raises again the question of individual biases
in all of us.
Yamiche Alcindor begins with this update.
YAMICHE ALCINDOR: The implicit racial bias training that Starbucks is doing today is
aimed at reducing racial discrimination and stereotypes, even those we may harbor unconsciously
WOMAN: We understand that racial and systematic bias have many causes, sources, and ways of
showing up within each of us.
YAMICHE ALCINDOR: As seen in this video from Starbucks, the training is grounded in the
idea that communities thrive when there is a -- quote -- "third place" other than home
or work to congregate.
It includes an introduction by the rapper Common.
COMMON, Rapper: Helping people see each other fully, completely, respectfully.
YAMICHE ALCINDOR: The action by Starbucks comes after an incident in April that sparked
national outrage and protests.
A store manager at this Philadelphia Starbucks called the police on two black men who were
there for a business meeting.
But the manager became alarmed after they requested a bathroom key without ordering
anything.
The men explained they were waiting on a friend's arrival to order.
But by the time the friend arrived, the men were in handcuffs, arrested for trespassing.
The company released a video apology after the arrest.
KEVIN JOHNSON, CEO, Starbucks: I want to begin by offering a personal apology to the two
gentlemen who were arrested in our store.
YAMICHE ALCINDOR: Today, on "CBS This Morning," Starbucks chairman and founder Howard Schultz
responded to some skepticism that the training is a P.R. stunt and doesn't go far enough.
HOWARD SCHULTZ, Founder, Starbucks: As I shared with you in Philadelphia, it was a reprehensible
situation that we took complete ownership of, and something that really was embarrassing,
horrifying and all the issues we talked about that day.
It's interesting for us to be criticized for us doing it for four hours.
It's just the beginning.
What we have said to our board, to our shareholders is that we're deeply committed to making this
part of everything we do.
We hire 100,000 new people a year.
This is going to be part of the ongoing training.
We're going to globalize this.
YAMICHE ALCINDOR: For the "PBS NewsHour," I'm Yamiche Alcindor.
JUDY WOODRUFF: For a closer look at this issue and how much training or education can do
to help people overcome it, we turn to two people closely involved in these issues.
Amrita Chakrabarti Myers is an associate professor of history and gender studies at Indiana University.
She's currently on a fellowship at the Johnson Institute for the Study of Race and Difference
at Emory University.
And Patricia Devine is a professor of psychology and director of the Prejudice and Intergroup
Relations Lab at the University of Wisconsin.
And we welcome both of you to the "NewsHour."
Amrita Myers, I'm going to start with you.
Let's talk about bias.
I think it's safe to assume we all have bias inside of us.
We're human.
How do you define it?
Where does it come from?
AMRITA CHAKRABARTI MYERS, Indiana University: Thanks, Judy.
It's a pleasure to be on.
And, yes, I think you're right, Judy.
We -- we soak bias in through the very culture that we live in, Judy.
And for those of us who are born and raised in the United States, we certainly get it
from our families, from our parents.
We soak it in from media, television, news, books, our teachers in our classrooms.
And we call it implicit or unconscious because it's done so subtly that we're not even aware
that we're picking it up.
And by the time we're adult, we have these unconscious ideas or thoughts or stereotypes.
If you were to ask someone if they're racist or if they have bias against a group of people,
like African-Americans, they may well say to you no, but then they may well have these
stereotypes.
1 It might be something as small as thinking that all African-Americans like watermelon
or fried chicken, or it might be something far more damaging or severe, thinking that
African-American men are dangerous, are criminals.
They -- people might clutch their bags, for example, unconsciously and may not even be
aware of it when African-Americans pass by them on the street or when they get onto an
elevator with them.
And these are things that they may not be aware of, but they have picked up these ideas
from the culture in which they reside.
JUDY WOODRUFF: Patricia Devine, you accept the idea that most people don't realize they
have these biases inside of them.
PATRICIA DEVINE, University of Wisconsin: I do.
In fact, I would argue that most people don't want to have those biases.
They intend to be non-prejudiced or non-biased.
And yet, as the previous guest was describing, they have learned stereotypes, they have picked
them up from cultures, to the point that they get so deeply entrenched in their minds, that
they become default or habitual ways of thinking about others.
And I use the metaphor of habits of mind as the starting point for understanding the problem
and also as a starting point for trying to address how one might reduce the tendency
to show these unintentional forms of bias.
JUDY WOODRUFF: So, Patricia Devine, staying with you, how then do you get people to recognize
it and then get them to begin to change their thinking, change their behavior?
PATRICIA DEVINE: Well, the first thing is to get people just to notice that, in fact,
spontaneously and unintentionally, they make assumptions about other people.
Their conscious minds may not approve, but once they become tuned into these types of
biases and are made aware of them, then they come to understand them as a problem to be
addressed.
And once they accept that -- and one point to really recognize here is that having these
biases doesn't make people bad people.
It makes them rather ordinary, having been socialized into a culture where these biases
are embedded into the very fabric of our society.
They're picking up the messages.
They're not bad people.
They're ordinary.
And that once you understand the problem that way, you can make a commitment to change,
and you can start to think about the change process.
If they are habits of mind, they can be broken like other habits can.
And there's a number of interrelated factors that have to be set in place.
People have to care.
They have to be motivated.
They have to want to do something.
Without motivation, nothing will happen.
They need to become tuned into, aware, and notice when they're vulnerable to displaying
biases.
They have to have some tools and strategies to do something else, to disrupt that habitual
way of thinking.
JUDY WOODRUFF: Right.
PATRICIA DEVINE: And then, like breaking any other habit, they are going to have to put
effort into it over time.
It's not something that happens all at once.
There's not sort of a quick fix or a silver bullet, but we can empower people to make
the change, and we can provide them with assistance in the process to overcome these unintentional
biases.
JUDY WOODRUFF: So, Amrita Myers, I see you nodding for -- while you're listening to her.
You're saying -- both of you are saying it is possible to change behavior.
It just takes work and it takes a desire on the part of the person.
AMRITA CHAKRABARTI MYERS: Absolutely.
I think you have to want to do these things.
You have to be willing.
I talk to my students about these things all the time.
I teach African-American history.
I teach black women's history.
I teach classes on slavery.
And every semester, I have students who come in who have never taken these classes before
who will openly express the fact that they have never gone to school with students of
color, who have never had teachers of color.
And they're often very resistant to the very material I'm teaching.
And they will often say that they have never heard this material, that they often think
it's not even true, because they have come from school districts where they have actually
been taught alternative material.
And so they find it hard to believe what they're reading, what they're hearing from their classmates
and their experiences.
And yet, over the course of the semester, being in small groups and reading this material,
reading primary documents, hearing about their classmates' experiences, hearing from me,
they begin to open up, and they begin to learn another way.
JUDY WOODRUFF: Can one session change someone?
Can it change your thinking?
AMRITA CHAKRABARTI MYERS: No, I think what one session can do is, it can cause an epiphany.
It's a beginning.
But it has to be -- it's a start.
One day cannot do anything but be a beginning, but a beginning is important.
Right?
It has to be the beginning of a lifelong process.
But we have seen that happen with people.
There are -- many of us have read stories online of people who used to be white supremacists
who are now engaged with organizations like the NAACP, the Equal Justice Initiative, and
other wonderful organizations, who are now working with others to bring about change.
Right?
They have amazing transformational stories.
But it all begins with a single step.
What Starbucks has done today is taken a first step.
But it has to be the first step in another -- in a long process.
JUDY WOODRUFF: And just quickly, Patricia Devine, you agree, one session is at least
a start, it's a good thing?
PATRICIA DEVINE: I think it's not the issue of whether it's one session.
The issue is whether it engages people in a deep and meaningful way in the issues and
it provides them with tools that can empower them to create a self-sustaining process of
change that can last over time.
JUDY WOODRUFF: Patricia Devine, Amrita Myers, we thank you both.
PATRICIA DEVINE: Thank you so much.
AMRITA CHAKRABARTI MYERS: Thank you, Judy.

Breaking News - How family-run Unicorns of Love were created and compete with the best - Duration: 7:03.
Unicorns of Love quickly won over the hearts of League of Legends fans when they debuted in the EU LCS back in 2015
The fun loving team have competed in EU LCS finals, beaten TSM, have their own official fan club in Germany and even had two of their members appear in Deadpool 2
Their achievements so far are quite astonishing when you realise that they're a family-run business which began by a Dad helping his son's passion project
Jos 'UOLDad' Mallant created the team so his son, current UoL coach Fabian 'Sheepy' Mallant, and his friends could compete in smaller tournaments
They wanted a name that would hurt twice as much if you lost to them and hence, Unicorns of Love were born
UOLDad says they're one of the few teams who don't run at a loss but for them it was never about the money: 'We created UoL purely to support my son and his passion, we're an organisation that wants to have fun and have success, money isn't the force which is driving us
'We are a a family-based start-up with low costs compared to others.' he added, 'my son is not getting the high salary
My daughter is running the shop from home. My son's girlfriend of my son was studying for computer design
She made our logo and is doing all our artwork.' The team comes from humble beginnings but things became serious once Sheepy and his friends qualified for the EU LCS
They had no salaries or organisation behind them, but there was financial interest according to Mallant
However, investors were only interested in the spot and not the players, all of whom were unproven at the professional level
Wanting to keep them together, Mallant took matters into his own hands, dipping into his own savings from years of working in research and development
He quickly found out just how difficult and expensive it is to run an EU LCS team: 'The first thing was to get a gaming house, which was difficult because most landlords were not interested in renting a house or an apartment to six young guys with the youngest being 17
'We had to buy six beds and six chairs and six desks to play at and cutlery and a washing machine and all that kind of stuff
I mean you had to buy a whole household for six people. 'All of that and after four months we could have been relegated and it would have been all for nothing
It's difficult to say how much I've invested over the years, having myself work as a CEO with no salary for four years helps
I think over the years I've probably spent around €150,000-200,000 (£131-174k).' That's a substantial investment but UoL will need a lot more in order to remain in the EU LCS next season once the league introduces 'permanent partnerships' - which will have a reported buy-in fee of $10m (£7
5m). UoL will still be applying for a spot but either way, Mallant says they have no intention of quitting LoL: 'We will go for the application and see how far we come if we can get enough investment money to afford to do so
If not, we will go play in a European league or something like that. 'I think it's difficult for everybody to get the money or the investments settle
The first deadline of the 1st of July. I think we need more time for that. Money is one thing but there are a lot of other components too
You have to prove that you know what you're doing as an organisation, that you understand esports and the fans, that you can build a fan base, build a sponsorship and you can create content
' It's going to be an uphill battle for UoL but with their strong following and what they have managed to achieve through limited resources should certainly go in their favour
Their LoL future could be in doubt but they haven't got all of their eggs in one basket
Mallant is confident of the organisation's future: 'As an organisation we had to figure out what we wanted to do, did we just want to play League or do we want to go as an esports organisation? We decided to go with the latter, with our name and brand I think we can do much more
We've started our FIFA team and we are thinking about other esports as well. Investing in CS:GO is expensive and shooters aren't accepted by most German companies and sponsors
We are looking for what do next, which could be Hearthstone, Rocket League or something like that

Ruth – who was slightly hesitant at reading out the personal message live on air – wrote to Eamonn: My darling, we are all so busy I worry I don't take the time to tell you how much I love you.
Well, I love you more than you will ever know.
You make my life complete and give me the love and support to do everything I do. She ended the message adding: Thank you for making me feel like the most loved woman in the world..
All panellists on Wednesdays show had been tasked to write a love letter to someone they cared about, with Janet Street Porter, Stacey Solomon and guest panellist Catherine Tyldesley also reading out their messages.
Janet had decided to message Linda Robson, Stacey wrote to boyfriend Joe Swash, while Catherine took the opportunity to hint to husband Tom Pitford that she would like another baby – a suggestion he quickly shut down!.
By the end of the show, Ruth revealed to the audience that Eamonn had yet to respond to her message. She said: Eamonn! He hasn't even replied. I don't even do gushy things like that. I can him my poet.
Hes the gusher! Ruth and Eamonn have been married since 2010 following a 12 year relationship, and share son Jack, 16. They have also been working together for 17 years, something Ruth had wanted to do even before meeting her husband.
She previously told HELLO!: I always admired him as a broadcaster before I met him [Eamonn] so I would like to work with him even if he wasn't my husband because I think he is so brilliant..

Who belongs at Pride? - Duration: 4:47.
Hey everyone, I'm Sam Kayden
and this channel is about queer life beyond binaries to inspire you to live a happy fulfilling life as your true self.
Pride is just around the corner.
So I think now is a great time to talk about who belongs at pride and who doesn't
[upbeat music]
Every year as Pride rolls around there always seems to be a conversation
online at least, about who belongs at Pride and who doesn't. So I'm going to unpack that a little bit and talk about
who I think should be at Pride and who shouldn't be. The short answer is everyone belongs at Pride.
The way that we gatekeep Pride and determine who should be there and who shouldn't based on identity or physical characteristics or
Personality or looks is ridiculous
[upbeat music]
So the way that this gatekeeping tends to work is that
Somebody will say that because of this identity characteristic,
you do not belong at Pride. And a lot of the people that tend to be pushed out of Pride protests or celebrations
tend to be those whose identities are on the margins of the queer community.
So for example, people who are asexual aromantic, transgender, bisexual
pansexual, fluid...folks that don't have
identities that are gay or lesbian
tend to be excluded from
the queer community as a whole. And I think part of that is due to how over the years we have
redefined what it means to be queer.
The acronym itself has grown and increased as we have discovered and accepted more and more identities
And I think that it's really important that we
have a new definition of queer than maybe what was used
20, 30, 40 years ago. The definition of queer today essentially includes anyone who does not fall under
cisgender heterosexual
A trans person could identify as straight and they would still be queer because they're trans. An asexual person might identify as asexual
but hetero-romantic
So that person is definitely still queer
Ultimately anyone that is not cisgender heterosexual and considers themself to be a
member of the queer community is queer and therefore they belong at Pride.
Including identities that have been historically excluded from Pride is not a threat to those identities that are already included at Pride.
It's simply not. It's just opening up the definition of queer. It's being more inclusive. It's being more accepting
It's being more aware and understanding of the different identities that exist because there are so many.
So that leaves the question,
Do cisgender heterosexual people belong at Pride. Yeah, absolutely
Anyone and everyone belongs at Pride. Of course, I can only speak for myself
But I don't think it's effective that if we as a queer community use the tactics that have been used
against us to exclude us and push us to the margins
against the people that were using these tactics in the first place
The better question is how much space are you taking up at Pride?
So for example, if you are a cisgender heterosexual person who does not consider yourself queer maybe instead of marching in the parade itself
You're standing on the sidelines and cheering us on. Maybe you're waving a supportive sign
But that question is actually one that all of us can ask ourselves whether or not we're queer when we're attending Pride.
The question of
how much space you're taking up is really a question of
What privileges do you experience based on your identity, based on who you are?
And what are you doing to level the playing field
so those that don't experience those privileges
are not left in the dust and are given just the same amount of space as you are
So for example, I'm somebody who doesn't require mobility aids to get around.
So when I'm attending Pride it's important for me to pay attention to how Pride is set up and how
accessible the area is and if I
notice anything that is inaccessible or that needs to be improved on I should say something about it
I should find a volunteer. I should find somebody who's working at Pride and let them know and try to get it fixed
That's a way that I can use my privilege as someone who
moves through this world without requiring mobility aids to make sure that things are set up in a way that people with varying needs
will have an accessible Pride. So if you're attending Pride this year, just ask yourself: how much space am I taking up?
Do I have some privilege that maybe others don't have and what can I do about that?
how can I make this a more inclusive Pride for everyone and not just people that fall under my
definition of what queer means. If you know someone who would benefit from this video

It was never meant to be 'hey everyone, look at me!"And then obviously a lot of attention focused on it, which I didn't expect at all
