00:00The man was beaten and stabbed by a judge in the middle of a court proceeding in Nevada, America.

00:12The man was sentenced to four years in prison for a felony battery case.

00:20It happened in January.

00:21This Tuesday, he was sentenced to 26 to 65 years imprisonment for assault.

00:28The suspect said he had no intention of killing the judge.

00:32According to his lawyer, based on local media reports,

00:35the man did not take any medication for his condition of schizophrenia.

00:42Christmas is said to be the most wonderful time of the year.

00:45But it's also the deadliest time of the year

00:48because of studies that show that stroke and heart attack cases are on the rise during this time.

00:54Let's take a look at the so-called holiday effect in the FitTrack report of Danutin Cungco.

01:04While Christmas break or vacation is coming,

01:07the social calendar of many people is busy and busy.

01:11Workout and jetta are also included during vacation.

01:14But doctors are careful not to be a killjoy.

01:18They are careful in drinking and preparing.

01:21During the holiday season, stroke and heart attack cases are on the rise.

01:26The number of people who suffer from stroke, heart attack cases,

01:31and other heart problems increases from the last day of December to the beginning of January.

01:36It's very exponential at this point.

01:39You can actually see a very linear surge of stroke patients by January or even at the end of December.

01:47They're usually the ones with other risk factors.

01:50Increased alcohol consumption, increased stress.

01:53It could have triggered the problem.

01:55It could have made the condition worse.

01:57According to a study in Norway,

01:59Christmas is the deadliest time of the year.

02:04In studies in Australia and Taiwan,

02:07the chance of a person dying from stroke and hospitalization during Christmas is higher.

02:14This is called the holiday effect.

02:16This is also one of the reasons.

02:18During the holidays, there is lack of manpower in the hospital because of the holiday season.

02:24Some of the hospitals, some services are not readily available as it should be on a regular basis.

02:30This is the holiday effect.

02:32The risk of stroke is also higher in the elderly and those with pre-existing conditions.

02:37Then, there's an excess of parties and drinking during the holiday season.

02:41We're seeing actually a surge in cholesterol, BP because of the lack of exercise and bad diet.

03:05You can do basic weightlifting at home.

03:07You can use bottled water instead of using bands.

03:11Use bodyweight exercises.

03:13Bodyweight exercises or weightlifting can actually lower down your blood sugar.

03:17You can take a jog outside of your house or you have a treadmill or bicycle at home.

03:23You can actually do some cardio at home.

03:25It will lower down your blood pressure.

03:27You just need 30 minutes of exercise 3 to 4 times a week and that is more than enough

03:32to lower down the risk for heart problem, cardiovascular events, and stroke.

03:37Donna Tingkungko reporting for GMA Integrated News.

03:47Kagwa Volcano brought a literal peak adventure to Cagayan where you can trek to the top of the volcano.

03:55Let's go to Oscar Oida's report.

04:03An active volcano and a fire mountain in the Philippines.

04:08But instead of being scary, the Kagwa Volcano is an attraction in Gunzaga, Cagayan.

04:15Its sulfuric crater is the end goal of those who climb the mountain.

04:21Feel the heat of the volcano.

04:24I've been waiting for this for a long time.

04:29It's peaceful in Tuk-Tuk but before you reach it,

04:32you will have to go through the difficult but exciting trail that goes through the forest and river for 6 to 8 hours.

04:41The trail is already established.

04:42There were sightings of, if I'm not mistaken, monkeys and such.

04:46But in my experience, I only experienced birds.

04:51We noticed some birds.

04:53There are also tour guides to make sure it's safe.

04:57You can camp around the mountain.

05:00It's perfect for geology enthusiasts.

05:03Just check that your body is in good condition.

05:07Bring enough water, food, and if possible, bring protective gear and mask.

05:14The Kagwa Volcano is also considered sacred by the locals.

05:18You need to study it.

05:20We need to respect the mountain.

05:22We need to listen to the tourism office and our tour guides.

05:25Enjoy the trail and make memories.
