Grade school class begins lifetime health care habits
A Nebraska workshop trains school officials in a 10 week health course now used in about 500 districts nationwide. The program emphasizes hands on learning about heart, digestion, respiration and brain care across grades from kindergarten to seventh. Dr. Kerry Redican notes students gain health awareness, exercise interest and career thoughts in medicine, with less smoking likelihood as exposure rises. The goal is a healthier generation with hearts in the right place.

Missouri River inflow stays below normal for fifth month
The Army Corps of Engineers reports Missouri River main stem reservoir inflows remain well under average for July, at 27 percent of expectations. Dry upstream conditions and high evaporation drove a 1.6 million acre foot storage draft, though system storage remains ample for current operations. Navigation tonnage through July stands at 1.6 million tons, ahead of last year.
