From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.SNORING can be cured - if the sufferer finds a way of keeping the chin raised, thereby bringing the lower jaw forward and clearing the airway, according to Dr Hal Yarrow, a retired GP from Hitchin, Hertfordshire.
Writing in Mims, he says it is best to sleep on the side, pressing the elbow into the mattress and using the forearm as a prop, with the chin supported on the back of the hand. His wife reports that since he adopted this position, his own snoring has stopped.
