MU Psych Central – Sleep Deprivation Crisis
Sleep is wildly under-rated in the U.S. We sacrifice sleep at the expense of work, fun, and the demanding pressures of daily living. Sleep, however, should be taken more seriously as a necessity that contributes to our optimal functioning. Sleep allows our body to recover from the wear and tear of stress, physically, mentally, and psychologically. Without it, we suffer. We forget. We can’t learn. We cannot operate productively, or creatively. We risk developing physical illness, and are more prone to injury. Lack of sleep decreases life quality and longevity.

Brave Volunteers of Liberty
The Liberty Volunteer Fire Company is made up entirely of brave volunteers. They respond to emergencies such as structure fires, car fires, wild fires, medical calls, and rescues within the Liberty Borough, Liberty Township, and Jackson Township.
