<p>Dani Dyer forced out of Survival of the Fittest</p>
Tumblr media
THE blokes on ITV's Survival Of The Fittest can breathe a sigh of relief -- they might have just dodged a bullet.
A showdown with EastEnders hardman DANNY DYER is currently off the cards.
ITV bosses were reportedly excited about Dani appearing on the show
His daughter Dani had to give up the ITV2 show, injured, before they could test their pulling skills.
Barmaid DANI dislocated a shoulder as she landed badly after careering headfirst down a waterslide while filming a challenge.
She was treated on site a day after entering the ITV2 show's lodge in the African.
Producers decided she wasn't fit to continue on the show.

A source said: "It was a really nasty fall. Dani knew straight away she had done harm but tried to continue because she didn't want to seem like a wuss. It was too much, though, and she was taken to hospital."
Due to the nature of this show, where girls and the boys battle physical challenges, as well as mental ones, the producers decided Dani would have to be replaced. It is a shame for everyone because she was looking forward to taking part and ITV were chuffed to sign her."

Dani was one of the show's biggest signings along with I'm A Celebrity 2017 winner GEORGIA 'TOFF' TOFFOLO's ex JAMES MIDDLETON.
Survival Of The Fittest, hosted by LAURA WHITMORE, sees male and female teams face off in a battle of the sexes -- and allows some love -- before the public decides who to axe.

Scarlett curls up with lee
SCARLETT MOFFATT had better think up.
I told last week how she dated fitness model Lee Wilkinson and now she confirms this with the Instagram snap of the pair on Saturday. She wrote: "Love this one... love a night in Newcastle #datenight."
The TV star was seen looking fresh-faced as she left her hotel in the Home Counties this week.
They got together at Christmas although Scarlett -- pictured this week looking quite different from her Instagram snaps -- has known Lee for at least a decade.
It puts an end to the silly rumours she was having a fling with telly pal ANT McPARTLIN, and includes four months after she split from her long-term fella Luke Crodden.
The pair were off and on for three years and shared a flat in London.
Scarlett deserves happiness -- I hope it is found by her .

"James was a bit bleary-eyed. He was like: 'Thanks for the sound! '''

<p>Survival Of The Fittest's Tia Latham admits she grew up as a boy</p>
Tumblr media
Tia makes the admission on the first episode (Picture: ITV)
Survival Of The Fittest hopeful Tia will make a tearful admission on Sunday's launch show -- that she was bought up as a boy before discovering she was a women.
As she settles in to the Lodge, Tia, who was known growing up as Ashley, decides to confide in her fellow teammate Jenny, admitting that she wants to be '100% me and be open as my story is completely different to everyone else's'.
'Between me and you for now, essentially me growing up, my parents assumed that I was one way and then essentially my body decided to go by itself naturally in another direction,' she reveals.
Tia opens up to Jenny (Picture: ITV)
'I didn't develop like everyone else I had to take matters into own hands and seek medical advice and then there was this entire mix up... Going through college and going through puberty, children would bully me. So through me seeking medical advice, they said, "Your chromosomes are xx" so you [Jenny] would be xx and one of those boys would be xy.
'I hid it for so long until now, and I am like "no longer." I'm tired of speculation. It is in my genetics'
Jenny admits she is glad Tia opened (Picture: ITV)
'It is really nice that she decided to speak to me. It is so sweet. Be who you need to be, be who you want to be,' Jenny says in the Treehouse.
'It is amazing that she's gone through all this and she's the person that she is today. People will have no problem with it and there is nothing.'
Tia and Jenny open up to each other (Picture: ITV)
Tia suffers from a rare congenital condition which she described as 'nature getting confused'.
She informed The Mirror: 'I knew in myself something wasn't quite right at about aged six. Something wasn't right, when I hit it was quite evident.
'I felt different, I looked different, I always looked female. As I grew up it became more evident.'
Tia has now had breast implants and is looking to find romance -- and have sex and admits that she will be telling everyone her story.
It is boy vs girls (Picture: ITV)
'There is something about Jenny that I really like. I could not have hoped for a response that is better,' she says in the Treehouse.
'I was amazed. This is a journey for me because I want to be at peace with myself. Everybody has their story and anything else I will tell mine.'

<p>Greatest iPhone Game Updates: 'Rules of Survival', 'Hearthstone', 'Warhammer Quest 2', ' 'Marvel Fight', and More</p>
Hello everybody, and welcome to the week! It's time again for our look back at the last seven days' notable updates. Lots and lots of updates this week, with matches that were paid and some represented. We have got more, compatibility updates, seasonal events, and expansions. Like bug fixes! And other improvements! You can keep a look out for updates yourself using AppShopper or by engaging in the TouchArcade forums. This weekly overview is here to fill you in. Let's dig in!
, FreeAvengers Academy celebrated its second anniversary with a major update that changed a lot of the basic systems of this game. On the positive side, a great deal of characters can finally be upgraded and put into their costumes that were proper. On the negative side, there's a lot more grinding involved on permanent and combat character updates. I'm sure as things will get more interesting open up, but it is only a great deal of busywork.
, $1.99Chillaxian is back. . .sian. Okay, it didn't really go anywhere, but the game did require an update for compatibility with iOS 11 and 64-bit devices. It's those things! It has a brand new system, allowing you to mix and match the pieces you regain to make a bunch of power-ups that are different. There are space hives a number of new aliens, and some people floating around that you will need to rescue. I like Chillaxian a whole lot, so I am giving this game the coveted UMMSotW award for this week.
, Free Ha ha ha, gee it is true. We really are going to be seeing this game get a update every week for the immediate future. At least the notes are comprehensive and easy to summarize. By way of example, this week we've got a 300-player solo mode for map new weapons a new kind of truck, a characteristic for breathing, a map, and vehicle camo. That doesn't need an explanation from me, leaving me free to make pop culture references and sounds quite interesting. Dy-no-MITE!
, Free It seems to me like Shadow Fight 3 isn't getting as much attention and praise as Shadow Fight 2 did, but I suppose it can not be doing that badly since it has been getting fairly regular updates. The latest one lines up with the Lunar New Year, bringing a Tournament against the Monkey King and friends. You pick up some Lunar Chests as rewards for Duels, enjoy the cool place, and get a brand new, unique pair of Monkey King equipment. Also: balance adjustments and bug fixes.
, Free When it comes to dishing out amazing updates that speech player feedback, programmer Foursaken takes Noble. Noblemen 1896, that is! Ha ha ha, I'm so very much not sorry for this at all! Ah, anyway. This is a update. It has support for Apple Replaykit and the iPhone X. It has a survival mode which you can play in single-player or co-op. Oh right! This upgrade adds multiplayer, although this is kind of burying the lede. For the new mode, natch. The graphics have gotten a overhaul, and the developers have also seen fit to do a bunch of balance tweaks and fixes.
, $4.99 Expansion time! Warhammer Quest 2 has had a, shall we way, rocky start. The developers have been working hard on fixes and alterations in response to participant feedback, so I am somewhat surprised that they also had the time to prepare some new content. But they did! The Lord of Khorne delivers a new campaign in a region packed with enemies and new environments. Additionally, there are three new playable characters available: the Ogre, the Wardancer, and the Warrior Priest. Of course, just like the first game these DLCs must be purchased. With how much it builds on the original game and this expansion's size, however, I think you'll find this Khorne quite easy to digest.
, Free Ah, the city of love. That is Paris, in the event. The Subway Surfers are led there, not for l'amour but parkour. Okay, just surfing on subways, but that didn't fit my scheme. Collect heart-shaped boxes, get the Sweetheart board, and take Coco the mime to get a ride on the Rose board. Love is a many-splendored thing, but in this case it is really just the 1 splendor. The surfing splendor. But it will lift you up where you belong, where the eagles cry on a mountain high. I don't know, maybe order a pizza or something. A double-stuffed crust with bacon will although Mobile games aren't to fill that gap in your heart.
, Free Oh, interesting! It seems that Gameloft added a narrative mode to the game with this update, which celebrates... the release... of a Fall Out Boy album? Wha? There's... you... I.. . bah ha ha ha ha, ah ha ha ha ha ha ha! Would you? Fall Out Boy? What does that have to do with racing at all? Look, I love senseless cross-overs, so I will give you a high five on this one, but goodness gracious it is tough to imagine a stretch. Actually, although there are a few cars in here, and some business about the Lunar New Year. Fall Out Boy. New album drops soon, I guess! Ha ha ha!
, Free You can probably guess what this update is all about. Yes, Marvel's got a new movie which means some of the major characters featured in it are currently creating their Fight debut. Ulysses Klaue, Shuri, and Killmonger jump over from Black Panther, and T'Challa himself gets a new uniform motivated by his movie look. Naturally, there are a number of new struggles that are inspired by people in the film. It's as good a way as any to get warmed up for the movie, I reckon.
, Free Let's end things off this week with a good-sized update to a big game. Hearthstone is making some big changes to its ranked play mode, and though they don't take effect until March 1st, this update sets them all up. This update makes some alterations and prepares the app for an event. Add in other alterations and some bug fixes and you have an update that mostly contains things which will happen, but have not yet happened. Well, that is kind of a note to go out on. They can not all be winners, I guess!
That about wraps it up for last week updates. I am sure I have missed some if you think something ought to be mentioned so please feel free to comment below and let everybody know. As usual, major updates will get their own news stories throughout this week, and I will be back next Monday to outline and fill in the blanks. Have a great week!

Georgia Cole is after a tan and the prize money
Who is Georgia Cole?
Georgia Cole is.
She describes her style as 'over the top', 'out there' and 'outrageous'.
She reckons she is one to beat because she does not think she has any weaknesses - although she admits to being 'moody'.
The reason she signed up for the series is to top up her tan.
The boys and the girls will be battling it out under the hot South African sun.
What has Georgia Cole said about Survival Of The Fittest?
Georgia reckons that the series should be won by the girls because she 's on that group and she would like to bag the cash prize.
She determined to win that she is not interested in finding love, saying she will use the boys as 'stepping stones to get what I want.'
If there is a cocky man in there she might change her mind as she admits those are the kind she goes for.
Her biggest fear is a lot of drama in the house and says that too many disagreements - and girls that scream - will do her mind in.
Georgia says she is looking forward to the challenges of being involved in a brand new show.

<p>Most Interesting Upcoming Survival Games</p>
Tumblr media
The survival game genre has risen to prominence that was huge in the industry over the past few years, kicked off by the likes of Rust and DayZ to explode with countless matches - both indie and AAA - flooding the market. The definition of what constitutes a survival match expand over time and shifted, and is nailed down - do survival horror titles count as the same genre as, say, Rust? Many survival games have zombies, which is definitely a horror element, but gameplay changes. An offshoot of survival games are Battle Royale games, which has arguably become its own subgenre, but falls under survival for the most part.
With the streaming scene being dominated by survival games and breaking player records right and left, it is an understatement and the industry isn't blind to this. There are a bunch of fascinating and interesting survival games are on the release horizon, both close and far. Some can be played in access, while others follow a release format with betas and just alphas giving fans opportunities to try the games out prior to launch. We have gathered some of the most promising upcoming titles, so you know which games to follow.
Survival Games - Hunt: Showdown
Developer: Crytek
Purchase: Steam
Hunt: Showdown pushes by cutting out many of the typical survival components like hunger/thirst and loot states, the survival genre further. A bunch of players are plopped down into a filthy, filthy, dark, dusty and totally disagreeable map filled with creatures and critters. The task is to be the last man standing, naturally.
Towards creating a very tense atmosphere, Hunt geared most of its elements. Micromanagement has been cut out in favor of full immersion. The environment functions as much to your favor as it is your enemy, wounded horses that freak out when you go near them and suffering, offering both cover, thus revealing your location to everybody. The game's day/night cycle adds another layer of tension, as the NPC enemies that are mostly docile during the day become a true menace come nightfall.
Survival Games - Metal Gear Survive
Developer: Konami
Purchase: Steam
It took a lot of flak, which is understandable when Metal Gear Survive was announced. Konami practically ousted Kojima from the franchise he's best known for and decided to turn it into a game that looks like an obvious double cash-in on the IP recognition and the draw of one of the most popular genres (which does not really fit the IP whatsoever). Survive piggybacked a story beat to be relevant into the lore while having a bunch of zombies off.
Once press actually got to play with some of the game, remarks started shifting. There is still plenty of negative feelings towards the game on the internet, but it appears that mechanically it is more than audio with interesting crafting choices, a focus on team play and an interesting (if dusty) setting. Many of MGS: the gameplay mechanics of V transition to Survive, but it is adding loads of its own twists and turns into the experience.
Survival Games - Conan: Exiles
Developer: Funcom
Purchase: Steam
The survival game somehow shoehorned into the Conan universe was made famous upon its early access release for the included feature of being able to adjust the size of your character's gentials, which can be explicitly shown in full view, and respond fully to the physics engine. While Conan: Exiles made the most headlines thanks to its dongs, there's a good deal more to the game.
Exiles sort of tries to blur the lines between persistent and survival MMO using a thrall system. The individual NPCs of the game world are, by default, hostile to the player, but can be "enthralled" to serve you. The profession of the NPC determines their use, with different thralls offering bonuses like quicker crafting or personal defense. In its current state, Exiles is playable with attributes in place, but there's still a lot to be added before full release.
Survival Games - Scorn
Developer: Ebb Program
Purchase: Steam
Scorn is an intriguing indie project that gained media traction on merit of its unique and creepy fashion. Clearly inspired by the works of H.R. Giger from the Alien franchise, the world of Scorn is techno-organic in the most unsettling way possible. Everything has a biological nature to interactable, from weapons, to it consoles all of the way. The hallways look like the interior of gut or arteries.
Scorn is survival horror than full on survival, but places a huge focus on immersion by preventing cutscenes and a HUD entirely, leaving gamers to figure out things and interpret the rather fluid storyline. While we don't doubt the game has some conventional scares hidden in it, the operative word here is "unsettling" or "creepy" rather than full on "scary". It is likely to stay with you once you've stood up from the monitor, although it might not get your heart racing like other games.
Survival Games - Astroneer
Developer: System Era Softworks
Purchase: Steam
The most often employed survival game is, undoubtedly, the post-apocalyptic with zombies. No additional setting is found but it would appear that outer space is one of the rarest. This is where Astroneer comes in, a survival game set in space, where astronauts must gather the resources not just to survive, but to build all types of gadgets and vehicles which will make that survival business simpler.
While in mechanics Astroneer does not differ much from most of its brethren - that is not to say there aren't a few unique touches - it thrives on its own setting. Colonising new, alien worlds while scrounging a living and finding of the resources required build vehicles essential to reach regions or to expand your base feels fresh. The game is currently playable in early access, with a ton of features yet to come.
Of forthcoming survival games, the list does not end there, but we are bound to have missed some that deserve a place in this article. Feel free to name drop it for those who have an interesting survival game you have been anticipating for a while now!

An ITV2 spokesperson added: "Dani hurt her shoulder during the recording of a challenge.   She was attended by on site medics and taken to hospital.  
"As Survival Of The Fittest  entails physical challenges that she wouldn't be able to share in, Dani is not in a position to be able to return to The Lodge and will therefore leave the show."

Danny commended his daughter on Instagram [Danny Dyer/ Instagram]
"I will just be sitting around and not be able to compete and I am not meant to move [my arm] for a week so that it wouldn't be fair and there's just no point. I'll just be an extra spare part if I continue like this."
"I haven't stopped training since Christmas. I've been dieting. I did Tough Mudder year and I didn't even hurt myself. I've been training up until today and now I've gone and dislocated my shoulder. It's what it is I suppose."
"My experience in the lead up to going into The Lodge was just amazing, I can't put it into words how amazing it was so I am absolutely gutted that I can't do any of the challenges.
"If I could go back and not dislocate my shoulder, I'd definitely change it. I hope this is not the last you've seen of me."
OK! Online has contacted a representative for Danny Dyer for remark

<p>Anticipatory Grief and Holidays: 12 Survival Tips</p>
Anticipatory grief -- a feeling of loss before a death or dreaded event occurs -- is a journey. Holidays make it even harder. At a time when you're supposed to feel happy and happy, you feel anxious and sad. Youwonder what is going to happen next and're on needles and pins.
Bear in mind, your grief stems from love, and you may find comfort in that. Holidays do not erase your reasons for feeling sad and lonely, according to the National Mental Health Association, and "there is room for these feelings to be found." So take your feelings and, if you feel like crying, go ahead and do it.
Crying will help you to feel better. Here are a few ways you can help yourself.
BE REALISTIC. You don't have to create a "perfect" holiday. Do you need to knit sweaters for everybody? No. Do you need to serve a six course meal? No. What you need to do is get organized set goals, and rate yourself. As opposed to focusing on one day, the National Mental Health Association recommends focusing on "a season of holiday sentiment."
ASK FOR HELP. You don't need to do everything yourself. Friends and Family members will be glad to assist with decorating, planning, and cooking. 1 family member could bring a traditional dish, such as pumpkin pie. Another family member could provide linens and launder them later. Your request for aid makes others feel needed.
BUDGET. They cause plenty of stress, although stress can be caused by finances at any moment. Set for decorations, gifts, and entertaining. Staying within your budget will make you feel better about yourself as well as the holidays. Your gifts don't have to be new. Holiays are a perfect time to pass along family possessions -- historical photograph, a flower vase, or book. Stick a note about the item in with your gift.
EAT RIGHT. Because brain chemistry affects, you need to eat meals. Pass the candy and cookies that come your way up, as they seem. Choose a great deal of veggies and fruits from the buffet table and one dessert. Keeping a supply of healthy snacks will help you to eat right.
DRINK MODERATELY. Alcohol makes the holiday blues worse, according to the National Mental Health Association. Too much alcohol can cause you to say things you will regret. Drink in moderation if you drink alcohol or skip it. Drink water instead of alcohol punch, or sparkling cider.
GET ENOUGH SLEEP. You've probably thinking, "Yeah, right." However, you need sleep to survive the holidays. Getting enough sleep is hard to do with so many holiday events going on. You leave early may be selective about what you attend, and get a good night's sleep. Balance a late night with a nap the next day.
LIGHT YOUR WAY. Vanerbilt University wellness experts say people become depressed during the holidays than at any other time. Some of these people have Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD). If you live in a cold climate and the days are short you may wish to be evaluated for SAD. Phototherapy (intense lighting) is usually suggested for those who have SAD. If you don' have SAD well lit rooms will raise your spirits.
EXERCISE. Daily physical activity is a way. Walk around the mall or town and look at holiday decorations. Play catch with your kids or grandkids. Bundle up and go cross country skiing. A half hour of physical activity daily helps to chase the blues away.
BE CONCILATORY. According to http://www.MayoClinic.com family tensions may flare during the holidays if members are "thrust together for many days." Holidays aren't the opportunity they're a time for kind and concilatory behaviour. Discuss family grievances at a later date.
HELP OTHERS. Holidays are associated with togetherness and households according to Jill RachBeisel, MD, Director of Community Psychiatry at the University of Maryland. But, because of fragmented and the divorce rate families, many do not have this sort of experience that is holiay. Still, you may connect with a substitute family by devoting a senior centre, studying to shut-ins, or tutoring children.
MAKE NEW MEMORIES. May comfort you in the future. Take digital photos of holiday events and put them on a CD. Send copies to all family members of the CD. Every family has stories to tell and you will create memories by tape. You may videotape holiday occasions.
SAVOR THE MOMENT. Though you are sorrowful, you're alive, able to be with those you love and care about. Surround yourself with dear friends: family members, life , vibrant flowers, a puppy. For every moment of life -- even the sorrowful ones -- is a miracle.

<p>Kenyan film nominated for Oscar tells tale of survival</p>
NAIROBI, Kenya -- An extremist attack in Kenya motivated.
"Watu Wote" means "All of Us" in Swahili. The film depicts the story of an extremist attack on a bus in northern Kenya just before Christmas in 2015. By refusing to split into groups, muslim passengers helped to save the lives of Christian passengers.
Film students read about the attack and decided to tell the story because of its own message of humanity and solidarity. Director Katja Benrath called the Oscar nomination "surreal."
The film used most of them, many young celebrities Somalis. Thousands of people have left Somalia for neighbouring Kenya over the years of their homeland Mogadishu, that killed more than 500 people.
"A lot of these already had traumatizing events in their past, also including terrorist attacks, so it was very, very emotional," Benrath stated. She said their best tried not to re-traumatize people.
Kenyan producer Bramwel Iro said the film shares the courage of the people on the bus with the world at large. The country has been the target of a range of attacks, particularly after Kenya sent troops to Somalia in 2011 to combat the extremist group. The strikes have caused tensions at times between Somalis and Kenyans.
"When I was introduced to this particular story I was like, 'This is how I contribute. This is how I do my part in spreading a message of peace, spreading a message of love," Iro said.
The film competes at the Academy Awards on March 4 in Los Angeles against four others in the Best Live Action Short Film category.

<p>Where is Survival of the Fittest filmed? </p>South African savannah filming location
Tumblr media
SURVIVAL is a brand.
The first episode of the series - which combines competition and dating, and has been touted as the 'Winter Love Island' - will be broadcast on ITV2 on February 11 at 9pm. But where will the show be filmed?
Survival Of The Fittest will be filmed at the South African savannah
Where is Survival Of The Fittest filmed?
Like Love Island last summer, Survival Of The Fittest is going to be filmed at a sun-drenched location which is likely to see host Laura Whitmore fly out for the event.
Instead of Majorca, the single men and women - who will participate in both physical and psychological challenges, while also taking the chance    - will be heading to the African savannah.
Viewers will see contestants pitted against one another, and also allowed enjoy some love, before the UK public decides who to boot off the savannah.
A statement from ITV this past year, when the show was first announced, read: "ITV2's younger audience will undoubtedly relish the escapism this immersive physical game show from sunny South Africa will offer next winter."
Young women and men will be competing against each other in the sunny country
What do we know about the lodge?
Teams sleep in their own boys and girls dorms but there might be some much-welcomed bed as the two areas are not separated by any doors, hopping.
And condoms will be supplied under the covers between the twelve competitors in preparation of moments.
Contestants will be living in luxury accommodation
The Lodge features a pool that overlooks an African waterhole where contestants may want to cool off after competing against each other in gruelling challenges.
Contestants each will have their own Apple smartwatch to instruct them to date or their next challenge.
Bathtub and the shower are located outside and the teams can prepare for nights out at the beauty station.
There is no escaping the cameras with 76 installed to catch the action from within The Lodge that also comes with gym, a fire pit and kitchen.
The contestants will be staying in dorms - however no doors will separate them
What is the South African savannah?
The background to the reality show is sure to be stunning while specific locations haven't been revealed by ITV for filming.
The savannah in the country of South Africa is an area of grassland that is large where trees are so widely spaced they cover about 20 per cent of the surface.
It is a place home to the 'big five' -  lion, leopard, elephant, buffalo and rhino - which draw safaris
Whether the contestants of the show will encounter any wildlife that is such is yet to be confirmed.
Laura Whitmore will be flying out to host the show
What will it be like to film there?
It is likely that - just like Love island - the contestants will not need to wear very much.
Even in February, the country basks in sizzling temperatures.
At the moment it's uncertain where the contestants will be staying, and if they are living and competing in different locations.
Entries to share in the show closed on the January 12 2018, with interviews occurring between August 2017 and January 19 2018.

A group of a group of women dressed in clothes and men can be seen at the savannah squaring up using a couple sharing a kiss in one scene, to each other.
The first confirmed contestant is James Middleton, the ex-boyfriend of reality TV star   Georgia Toffolo.
There is not any sighting of the show's host Laura Whitmore in the trailer.

<p>Hot Water off the Grid " Survival Blog</p>
Among the important things is how you'll find the hot water you require when it comes to prepping.   Hot water is used for cleaning, cooking, bathing and many other essential things we do every day.   In case of a loss of power and/or gas, most people would be without a way to find the hot water they want.   It is possible use generators, or to establish solar water heaters, but those are inefficient and costly.   Heat the water in a kettle over an open flame is also a slow and inefficient procedure.   The guide will show you how you can make virtually unlimited hot water.
What you will need:
The following items are needed to get hot water without electricity using this procedure.   It is possible to substitute the majority of these items out with something you may have available.   Keep in mind you should be able to find the majority of these items for quite cheap, or even free, if you know where to look.   Gather these items together:
Stove Pipe -- Get a large stove pipe that will go on top of the rocket stove.   The wider the pipe the better.  Keep in mind that the pipe must fit snugly on top of the rocket stove to avoid heat loss.
Fuel -- Fuel to burn from the rocket stove.   This will be small kindling or sticks wood.
Water Storage Tank -- An old hot water heater works perfectly for this.    Provided that the hot water heater holds water, it is going to work.
General Fittings & Shut Off Parts -- Some pipe fittings to connect everything together.  The specific size will vary depending on the size of copper tubing and which type of water storage tank you have.
Setting it Up
It is time to get everything put together, as soon as you've got all your parts gathered together.   Make certain that you put everything from the place where you wish to use it.   Keep in mind the rocket stove will create smoke and plenty of heat, so don't set this up near the home or other flammable products.   Additionally, the hot water heater needs to be somewhere convenient for regular use.   Once you've selected your place, follow these directions:
Fit the copper coil inside the stove pipe, as snugly as possible.   Have one end coming out a hole and another as high up as the coil reaches.   These pockets can be made using a metal drill or a piercing instrument.
Put a Y connector on the emergency drain spout on the hot water heater.   This is where you will get your water.
Once safely inside, run the copper pipe over to the hot water heater's drain spout.   Hook up the copper pipe to one of those connections on the Y connector you added, and open the spout. *at this point, the hot water heater is empty.   Make sure the spout that is second is closed.
Next, run the copper tubing that comes from the surface of the coil to the top of the hot water heater (where the cold water feed normally goes).   Secure the pipe.
Fill the hot water heater with as much cold water as you require.   This will go into the pit through into the hot water heater's top.
Your pump free, electricity free, gas hot water system that is free is now set up.   When hot water is needed by you, you simply must start the fire at the rocket stove.   It will take some experimentation to see how long it takes to heat up the water.   It will be based on how much water you're heating, how hot the fire is, and just how long the copper coil is.
How it Works
This water heating system functions with a thermo siphoning process. Until it gets to the coil, where the pipe is hot from the fire below, the cold water from the water heater will operate through the copper pipe.   This is accomplished at this point through gravity.   However, it gets warmed up, driving the water up through the rest of the coil , then back out the pipe and to the top of the hot water heater when the water gets to the pipe.   This water stays near the surface of the water from the hot water heater's tank.
As the water is pushed up through the pipe, it sucks more cold water in also.   This continues through, bringing the cold water and putting water to the hot water heater's top.   As the water cycles through of the water in the tank keeps getting hotter and hotter, enabling it to run more efficiently.   Keep in mind, there are thermometers or no regulators involved here, so if you let this system run too long, it might cause the hot water resulting in severe burns.
The water can be easily heated by this system to 180-200 degrees, which is much hotter than the typical water heater.   With this in mind, be extra cautious when using it, or the water might lead to scalding.   Once the flame at the rocket stove is going, to heat 20 gallons of hot water, it will take about 30-40 minutes.

<p>Survival of the Fittest host Laura Whitmore plays Love Island Contrasts down</p>
Love Island has gone from the joke of the TV schedules to some serious reality player in the last couple of years, so it's no surprise that some other shows may try to catch a little that sexy sparkle
But Survival of the Fittest sponsor Laura Whitmore has shrugged off the suggestion that her show is all that similar theto ITV's other sun-drenched fact contest.
"I suppose there's always a reason to compare it, but the difference is this isn't a dating show,' Laura advised the Daily Mail.
"If you're not a couple, you do not get sent home. Its boys versus girls and I think you can see similarities in plenty of shows with this -- even on Love Island there was something like that with Chris and Kem and their bromance.
She added: "There is other things which weren't explored before so with this series we can explore the brotherhood, the sisterhood.
"If I fancy someone on the opposite team, is that going to affect my strategies, and I believe that's the really interesting aspect of the show.
©  ITV
"It's that human component, and that's what we love about shows like this. I definitely think there'll be a few fancying happening."
So to clarify:
Love Island -- Young, sexy singles live in a villa in Mallorca and must be combined up with another islander, with any single contestant dumped from the series. There is also some dumping via all that gubbins and programs and user votes. The winning couple, who receives # 50,000 is also picked by voters.
Survival of the Fittest -- Young, sexy singles in South Africa participate in a battle of the sexes, taking on physcial and psychological challenges, all the while dating each other to test their loyalties. There is also some dumping via all that gubbins and programs and user votes, and audiences get to help choose who wins a #40,000 cash prize.
©  ITV
Could not be more different.
Totally not wanting to have her cake and eat, Laura added to The Sun: "If you prefer Love Island, you will certainly like it.
"It's a different format but it targets a similar crowd, so any comparisons are a compliment.
"But as all the contestants are single, they also enjoy romantic dates to promote love to blossom and test their loyalty to their team."
Survival Of The Fittest starts today (February 11) on ITV2 at 9pm.

The movie used the majority of them, many young first-time actors Somalis. Countless people have left Somalia for Kenya over the years since roams parts of their homeland, carrying out attacks such as the October bombing in the capital, Mogadishu, that killed over 500 people.
"A lot of them already had traumatizing events in their past, also including terrorist attacks, so it was very, very emotional," Benrath stated. She said the crew tried their best not.
Kenyan producer Bramwel Iro said the movie shares the guts of the people on the bus with the world at large. The country has been the target of a number of al-Shabab attacks, particularly after Kenya sent troops to Somalia in 2011 to combat the extremist group.

<p>Laura Whitmore gives viewers the first look at 'new Love Island' luxury where sexy singletons will find love lodge</p>
LAURA Whitmore has given viewers the very first look at 'Love Island' luxury lodge where love will be found by hot singletons on Survival of the Fittest.
The ITV2 show takes place in South Africa and starts on Sunday, with a whole host of fit singletons living in a lodge.
Laura Whitmore has given the first look at the Survival of the Fittest luxury lodge

She explained: "This is an exclusive look at the lodge.
"It's all about survival of the fittest, so yes all our boys and girls are single but they're against each other.
Laura showed off the grounds of the lodge, which includes cabana beds and lots of comfy cushions
She also pointed out the boys and girls' separate bedrooms
She added: "I don't understand what you could see but the girls bedroom is here [points left] and boys bedroom is here [points right] but they could mix and match if they want to."
Laura then pointed out that there were zebras out of shot behind the camera, which led Phillip Schofield to ask how the show -- which is created by the very same manufacturers of Love Island -- was not likely to become "Love Island with lions."
Laura replied: "It's quite safe, it is a luxury lodge so everything is very safe and there are great people around us but we're in the wilderness and there are opportunities to go out on safari and stuff."
The contestants are protected in the creatures living the lodge around by the water and purpose built bridge that she also showed the cameras.
Laura revealed how the lodge is in the South African wilderness
She also showed off the bridge which contestants will leave the show on
The new reality show sees single people pitted against each other
She explained: "This bridge in front of me, this was made for the show and this is how I get in and depart.
"It's the exact same for if people don't make it to the very end and therefore are possibly replaced by someone else, this is the way that they leave, kind of like the walk of shame."
Survival of the Fittest starts on Sunday at 9pm on ITV2.
