Two Kibos prisoners die while emptying sewage tank



KISUMU COUNTY: Two prisoners at Kibos Medium Prison in Kisumu County have died in a septic tank while draining sewage effluent within the institution. The prisoners who were serving seven-year and three-year terms respectively were said to have been electrocuted while inside the 15-feet deep tank on Monday noon. Deputy Officer in Charge of the prison Superintendent Francis Shisoka said a prison warder in the rank of constable had accompanied three prisoners on a routine cleaning of the tank which serves the entire institution. According to Shisoka, the content of the tank was almost exhausted when one of the prisoners got into the tank to set the pump sucker in position so as to pump the liquid at the base. The prisoner then fell inside the tank and without the others realizing that he had been electrocuted; another prisoner got in to rescue him when he also fell into the tank.

Surprising Health Benefits of Love

"I need somebody to love," sang the Beatles, and they got it right. Love and health are intertwined in surprising ways. Humans are wired for connection, and when we cultivate good relationships, the rewards are immense. But we're not necessarily talking about spine-tingling romance. "There's no evidence that the intense, passionate stage of a new romance is beneficial to health," says Harry Reis, PhD, co-editor of the Encyclopedia of Human Relationships. "People who fall in love say it feels wonderful and agonizing at the same time." All those ups and downs can be a source of stress . It takes a calmer, more stable form of love to yield clear health benefits. "There is very nice evidence that people who participate in satisfying, long-term relationships fare better on a whole variety of health measures," Reis tells WebMD. Most of the research in this area centers on marriage, but Reis believes many of the perks extend ...
