The Harrowing 5,000-Mile Flight of North America's Wild Whooping Cranes

Endangered Wild Whooping Cranes Must Soar Across the Continent Each Year to Ensure the Survival of Their Species—a Journey Packed with Obstacles like Power Lines and Poaching.

— By Rene Ebersole | Photographs By Michael Forsberg | March 19, 2024

Whooping Cranes Arrive at a Rain Water Basin Wetland in Nebraska to Roost for the Night.

We Were 800 Feet Up in the Air, Flying in a Helicopter with an International Team of Scientists over the vast boreal forest encompassing Canada’s Wood Buffalo National Park, when one of them shouted the alert. “Bird at nine o’clock!”.

Pilot Paul Spring circled the helicopter left, tilting for a clearer view of one of the countless pools of water stretching to the horizon. Rimmed in sand and tamarack trees, the surface glowed iridescent. In the middle of the wetland, we could make out a pair of snowy white specks, though they stood roughly five feet tall at ground level.

“There’s a chick,” said Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC) wildlife biologist John Conkin, training his binoculars on a rust-colored bird, slightly shorter than its parents, high-stepping in the marsh. Spring spotted a semidry piece of land and brought us to the ground. Conkin, his ECCC ecologist colleague Mark Bidwell, and the other crane catchers, U.S. Geological Survey biologist Dave Brandt and Canadian wildlife veterinarian Sandie Black, piled out of the chopper.

They had only 12 minutes to track down and capture the elusive target: a wild whooping crane chick designed for traversing boot-sucking mud, woody brambles, and bulrushes. Any longer and the team would have to call off the chase to avoid stressing the birds too much.

As the researchers vanished into the bush, Spring and I eased off the ground and zoomed up to 500 feet for an aerial assist. Sensing the humans’ approach, the crane parents flapped their giant black-tipped wings and departed, no doubt reluctantly leaving their flightless offspring behind. “I’ve got eyes on the chick,” Spring said to the group, who could hear him through the walkie-talkies attached to their vests. “It’s just below the chopper. Come toward the chopper.”

The team crashed through the underbrush, trying to push forward faster than the soggy terrain could pull them down. In a well-practiced maneuver, Conkin approached the chick; got hold of its beak, head, and legs; and carefully tucked the bird under his arm.

Six minutes, 36 seconds: bird in hand. Now came the more technical part. Panting and sweaty, the group unpacked their gear. Brandt, a seasoned wildlife biologist who has banded at least 150 wild whooping cranes in his career, held the chick on his lap, supervising Conkin as he affixed a transmitter to one leg and color bands (blue, yellow, green) on the other.

Meanwhile, veterinarian Black performed a checkup, examining the bird’s eyes and taking stock of its body condition. She collected biological samples—blood, feathers, saliva, and oral and fecal swabs—for testing at the lab to reveal things such as the bird’s sex and if it had been exposed to harmful chemicals or diseases, including highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI). Then Bidwell moved in to help slip a camouflage Velcro harness around the chick and weigh it on a hanging scale.

They spoke in low voices. When their work was done, Brandt cradled the chick like a football and carried it to the edge of the marsh. There he gently set it down and dashed away. That chick—now known to the annals of science as 15J—fled in the opposite direction, pausing briefly to ruffle its feathers and shake its new leg jewelry before receding into the safety of the marsh, reuniting with its parents.

In Protected Areas of Northern Canada, whooping cranes build their nests from surrounding vegetation. Crane mothers most often lay two eggs, but usually only one chick survives.

These whooping cranes embody one of North America’s greatest conservation success stories. Yet they remain the rarest of 15 crane species found throughout the world and are still endangered. Scientists estimate that more than two centuries ago, some 10,000 whooping cranes lived in North America. But they were no match for steady habitat loss and hunters in the 1900s who killed them for food, sport, and plumes to supply the millinery trade during the gilded age. By 1941, there were only 16 migratory whooping cranes left, all of them traveling a seasonal gauntlet of nearly 2,500 miles from northern Canada to the Texas Gulf Coast.

During the spring migration, whooping cranes mingle with hundreds of thousands of migrating sandhill cranes on Nebraska’s Platte River. The Platte and other wetlands in the Great Plains are vital bird stopovers.

Over the past 70 years, a raft of protections provided by grassroots conservation, legislation, habitat preservation, captive breeding, and research have slowly brought the population back. Today there are more than 800 birds, with over 530 in the central flyway migratory flock and much of the rest divided almost evenly between captivity and experimental reintroduction programs in Louisiana and Wisconsin. Still, many crane experts say it’s too soon to remove the birds from the endangered species list. The whooping crane recovery plan, written under the authority of the Endangered Species Act, has three main strategies to build both ecological and genetic stability. The first is to grow the migratory central flyway population large enough to survive a potentially catastrophic event, such as an outbreak of deadly bird flu. The second is to maintain a captive population to provide further insurance against calamity. And the third is to establish two additional self-sustaining wild flocks to help restore whooping cranes to other areas of the country where they lived historically.

Based on the current rate of population growth, some say the earliest we could plan for a victory party—albeit very tentatively—is about 2050. “The central flyway flock is halfway there,” George Archibald, co-founder of the International Crane Foundation, told me. “And neither of the experimental flocks are self-sustaining at this moment.”

Only about one-third of chicks like 15J survive to reach their breeding age of four or five years. They’re killed by predators such as bobcats or coyotes or die of fatigue and starvation during migration. They face man-made dangers including polluted wetlands, poaching, and power lines that kill millions of birds each year.

Last fall, four men pleaded guilty to shooting and killing four whooping cranes in Oklahoma in late 2021. At the crime scene, the ground was littered with feathers from the dead birds. (Top)

Considering the whooping cranes’ plight, I wanted to get a closer look at the efforts to save them. They are the polar bears of the bird world. If they disappear, we will have failed to save one of the planet’s most beautiful species, a symbol of hope and an ambassador for vanishing wilderness—and all of the species that live there. My visit to Wood Buffalo National Park sparked a monthslong journey—with several important detours—as I tracked 15J’s hazardous trip.

Even after more than a century of research, bird migration remains one of nature’s greatest mysteries. How do the animals navigate over long distances? Is their migration route encoded in their genes or learned? Can they adapt their migrations to avoid modern-day threats, including energy development and increasingly extreme weather?

Technological advances in satellite telemetry and long-term monitoring are helping crane biologists unravel some of these mysteries. Since 2009, 178 cranes from the central flyway flock have been fitted with solar-powered tracking devices that collect location data. In addition to being granted the rare opportunity to fly with crane biologists in Wood Buffalo National Park, I was given a chance to receive updates about 15J and the cohort of 17 other “J-birds” tagged in August 2022.

The first update arrived a few weeks later around lunchtime one day in mid-October. I was at my desk sipping a cup of soup in New York; 15J was airborne and moving south, beyond the park, an area larger than Switzerland, with no cell coverage. Likely motivated by cooling temperatures and high northwest winds, she and her parents departed from Wood Buffalo and arrived the next evening, more than 500 miles away, in Saskatchewan.

Like many other whooping cranes leaving the park, 15J and her parents took a long pit stop there, resting and refueling in the prairie potholes, shallow wetlands created by receding glaciers about 10,000 years ago, and on the northern edge of the Great Plains. Millions of birds stopping over in this region increasingly face threats such as runoff from farming chemicals including fertilizer and pesticides. But in early fall, it also provides birds with a buffet of leftover waste grain in the agricultural fields as well as insects, amphibians, and other small creatures in the wetlands. The cranes typically linger in these vital staging grounds for a few weeks.

On November 3, 15J and her parents crossed the U.S. border into North Dakota, starting their southbound push. Three days and 300 miles later, 15J’s transmitter pinged a tower in South Dakota. As the birds gradually worked their way down the flyway, they stayed in some places for days and barely touched down in others. On November 14, almost 300 miles and another state south, they stopped for a night along Nebraska’s Platte River, where cranes roost on shallow mid-river sandbars and forage in braided side channels, agricultural fields, and wet meadows.

Conservation photographer Michael Forsberg, who’s documented whooping cranes for the past four years, saw 15J there in the pale light of one morning, probing for food along the river with her parents and a lone sandhill crane. He texted me from the river: “I just spent the last two hours with 15J on the Platte. Can’t believe it. They just took off. They’re heading to where it’s warmer. It’s cold here. The river’s freezing up. It’s starting to snow.”

As the number of healthy whooping cranes increases, however, such pit stops may hold a more existential threat. A year earlier, biologists surveying birds on the Platte had counted a group of more than 46 whooping cranes—the biggest flock of migrating wild whoopers that anyone alive today has witnessed in the United States. Some experts said the sighting was a sign the cranes are learning to once again flock together in a large group, a natural tactic for survival, but one that also prompted concern. When such a large percentage of a population clumps in one place, there’s the risk that an extreme weather event or disease outbreak could severely knock their numbers back.

Recently, HPAI has killed millions of other birds in 81 countries. Wildlife managers are on high alert for outbreaks in critically endangered bird populations, including whooping cranes. In Baraboo, Wisconsin, the International Crane Foundation has taken biosecurity measures to protect the cranes in its captive facility from exposure to wild birds that could transmit the virus. Today the organization still raises whooping cranes to be released into the nearby wetlands. It also supplies some eggs to a promising project in Louisiana that is reintroducing cranes to the same wetland from which they vanished some 70 years ago after hunting wiped them out.

While 15J continued her November journey south, I boarded a plane to Louisiana to see the whooping crane class of 2022 graduate from the Freeport-McMoRan Audubon Species Survival Center in New Orleans, where the six-and-a-half-month-olds had become capable of flight, at which point they can be safely released into the wild.

Since the spring of 2011, the Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries has been leading this reintroduction project. In the first season, biologists released 10 captive-bred youngsters at the White Lake Wetlands Conservation Area in Vermilion Parish, about a four-hour drive west of New Orleans. They’ve since added more juveniles to the flock, which lives in Louisiana year-round, because some bird populations don’t migrate if they’ve only ever known one place and their needs are met. The state closely monitors the birds, often with help from cooperative landowners who tolerate cranes foraging in their rice fields and crawfish ponds. Louisiana’s flock is currently composed of about 80 birds. The goal is to establish a self-sustaining population of approximately 120 individuals, including 30 reproductive pairs, for a decade without restocking.

I arrived before dawn to witness the reintroduction day, when the cranes are rounded up from their grassy enclosures at the Species Survival Center and trucked down to White Lake to be released into the marsh. Richard Dunn, the center’s assistant curator, met me inside the gate and laid out the plan. After catching 10 young cranes from their enclosures, a team of biologists would weigh them and do a health check. Then each bird would be tucked inside a cardboard box with breathing holes and loaded into a van for the drive to White Lake.

At White Lake, we were greeted by Eva Szyszkoski, a wildlife technician with the Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries. Szyszkoski oversaw the birds as they were banded and fitted with tracking devices. Then the cranes in their boxes were shuttled onto a flat-bottom boat and ferried down a long canal to an area of the marsh enclosed with netting. A decoy crane stood inside the enclosure, welcoming the young birds to their new home.

One by one, each crane was removed from its box and carried by a white-costume-wearing biologist, disguised to prevent the birds from imprinting on people. As the humans waded into the muck, cradling the cranes, the birds’ heads bobbed on their long necks. Freed into the pen, they flapped their wings, stretching after a very long day.

In Louisiana, biologist Eva Szyszkoski interacts with birds that originated from a raise-and-release program, using a puppet to mimic adult crane behavior. (Top)

The next morning, Szyszkoski returned to find them all milling around, looking a little antsy to fly. Soon the nets would be opened, inviting them to disperse throughout the area. It’s not uncommon for many of these birds to die within their first year of being released. That may be partly because captive-raised cranes haven’t experienced the wild before—they’re naive, she said, and living in close proximity to people, which means a high chance of collision with power lines and fences. More than a dozen whooping cranes have been shot and killed over the course of the project. Occasionally, some just vanish without a trace.

More than 1,600 miles into her journey, 15J was flapping a route through America’s heartland. On November 15, her transmitter connected with a cell tower in Oklahoma, a state where one of the largest wind farms in the U.S. had recently come online.

As policymakers and the energy industry work to reduce the country’s carbon footprint, there are concerns about how eco-friendly energy advancements and habitat disturbance may affect migratory birds such as whooping cranes. A recent study showed these creatures avoid wind farm areas, preventing them from using some important stopover sites. At least 5,500 turbines have been erected in the birds’ migratory pathway, and over 18,000 more are planned. So far there’ve been no reports of whooping cranes being killed by turbines, but the accompanying increase in power lines is a major concern to conservation groups, who continue to advocate for careful site placements that may reduce the risk of potential collisions and for making power lines more visible with reflective markers.

In Aransas National Wildlife Refuge, Texas, whooping cranes prance alongside American white pelicans at sunrise. The nearly five- foot-tall birds need open spaces like this salt marsh pond to thrive.

One day and 260 miles later, 15J arrived in Texas near Fort Worth. By Thanksgiving, her transmissions went dark. USGS biologist Dave Brandt told me she was likely out of range of a cell phone tower in the state’s 115,000-acre Aransas National Wildlife Refuge, established in 1937 as a safe haven for migratory waterfowl and other wildlife. If so, that would mean her first fall migration was a success—she’d traveled some 2,500 miles over the course of about a month and could spend the winter resting along Texas’s Gulf Coast.

This picturesque vista of coastline, salt marshes, and tidal ponds is the winter stage where whooping cranes and their lifelong mates perform elaborate courtship dances, spinning in pirouettes, hopping and flapping, bobbing crimson-capped heads, and bugling their namesake calls.

But even on these wintering grounds there are threats, including coastal development and sea-level rise caused by climate change. Some scientists predict rising seas and subsequent saltwater intrusion will convert more than 50 percent of the Texas Gulf Coast’s freshwater wetlands to open water by 2100. Meanwhile, freshwater inflows are declining because of persistent drought and thirsty cities such as San Antonio upstream. Changes to salinity in the coastal estuaries pose problems for blue crabs and wolfberry plants—primary food sources for whooping cranes. Some conservation groups have warned that without more thoughtful conservation of this larger ecosystem, the whooping crane could lose its only wintering home before the end of the century.

In December I met Brandt in Texas to attempt to locate 15J and other J-birds in their winter grounds. Standing along the Intracoastal Waterway, we looked out over a salt marsh stretching at least a mile. It seemed like a large area but was a fraction of the historic marsh devoured by development in recent decades. Suddenly, two whooping cranes flew up from behind a grassy dune, white feathers gleaming in the sunlight. “They’re here because this just doesn’t exist anywhere along the coast anymore,” Brandt said of the rich habitat. “This portion of the peninsula has about 40 percent of the population wintering here.” Shortly after dawn the next morning, we boarded a fishing boat and spent eight hours fruitlessly searching for 15J along the Aransas refuge and nearby shorelines. We did, however, find several other whooping crane families, including a male bird, 11J, tagged around the same time the previous August. He was walking along the salt marsh begging—peep, peep, peep, peep—for his parents to share the blue crabs and wolfberries in their beaks. They seemed intent on teaching him to find his own food.

Next evening, on my way home to New York, I got a text from Brandt: 15J’s transmitter had “checked in,” revealing her location was within a mile of where we’d cruised along the coast.

Now another full migration cycle through spring and fall has passed. Each time, 15J has proved to be the most elusive traveler among the J-birds. I often receive updates about others almost daily, but I’ve heard about her only a handful of times. Whenever there’s been a long gap, I’ve worried: Did she collide with a power line? Get eaten by a coyote? Was she shot by a poacher? Or did she succumb to an illness?

If all goes well, 15J will be among the now 536 recorded whooping cranes preparing to depart Texas this spring, when their instincts signal it’s again time to arrow north. In the span of a month, they’ll travel 2,500 miles to Wood Buffalo National Park, where many of the adults will build nests and lay eggs. With luck, in a few more years it will be 15J’s turn to join that cycle too, helping her species continue its climb back from the edge of extinction.

26th August in Medical History

I. Introduction

Antoine Lavoisier, born on 26th August, 1743 stands as an emblematic figure not only in the annals of chemistry but also in the evolution of medical understanding. His remarkable research unlocked the riddles of chemical reactions and introduced crucial ideas like the law of conservation of mass, which completely changed the field of chemistry. Yet, amidst his chemical pursuits, Lavoisier’s forays into medicine often remain overshadowed. His research with other luminaries into respiration, metabolism, and heat production shed light on basic physiological processes. This article explores Lavoisier’s extraordinary life, illuminating how his extraordinary achievements helped to define both the field of chemistry and the intricate workings of medical research in the late 18th century.

II. Early Life and Education

Born in Paris in 1743, Antoine Lavoisier’s formative years laid the groundwork for his later scientific brilliance. Raised in a privileged family, he received an exceptional education, attending the Collège des Quatre-Nations. Early scientific interests of Lavoisier blossomed during his legal studies at the University of Paris. Here, his interests started to change towards chemistry, which would eventually pique his intellectual curiosity. His scientific career was further cemented by his marriage to Marie-Anne Pierrette Paulze, who became his partner and confidante. The foundation for Lavoisier’s revolutionary contributions to chemistry and medicine was laid during this time of intellectual awakening and interpersonal relationships.

III. Contributions to Chemistry

Antoine Lavoisier’s legacy in chemistry, forged during the latter half of the 18th century, remains indelible. His painstaking research upended preconceived ideas and resulted in the establishment of the law of conservation of mass, a fundamental principle. The older phlogiston theories were disproved by Lavoisier’s discovery of oxygen’s crucial function in combustion, ushering in the current understanding of chemical reactions. Additionally, his methodical approach to nomenclature standardized the name of elements and compounds, promoting more effective field communication. A revolutionary period was ushered in by Lavoisier’s sharp intellect and exacting experimental technique, which laid the groundwork for contemporary chemistry and motivated subsequent generations of researchers to use exacting methods.

IV. Medical Studies and Contributions

Amidst his chemical explorations, Antoine Lavoisier’s inquisitive mind extended to healthcare and physiology. He investigated the complexities of respiration, revealing the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide, working with renowned scientists like Pierre-Simon Laplace. Their investigations into how heat is generated in animals offered information on metabolic processes, revolutionizing medical knowledge. Lavoisier’s multidisciplinary approach highlighted his exceptional capacity to link chemistry and medicine and showed how scientific insights may cut across disciplinary barriers. His contributions to medical science helped pave the path for a deeper understanding of physiological mechanisms, demonstrating his enormous influence on both chemistry and the medical field — an integration that is still relevant in current study.

V. Impact on Medical Understanding

The influence of Antoine Lavoisier went well beyond the lab, profoundly affecting medical knowledge. His study of respiration and metabolism contributed to our understanding of physiology and also had applications in the field of medicine. Lavoisier’s painstaking research laid the groundwork for contemporary biochemistry, enabling more precise diagnosis and therapy. Furthermore, as seen by his contribution to the reform of hospital management, his innovative spirit went beyond the boundaries of science. His efforts to enhance patient care were demonstrated by his work in medical facilities to optimize oxygen delivery systems. Lavoisier was a pioneer in both scientific research and the improvement of healthcare delivery because of his efforts that spanned the gap between chemistry and medicine and fostered a synergy that accelerated medical advancement.

VI. Lavoisier’s Downfall and Legacy

Antoine Lavoisier’s unfortunate voyage was hampered by his engagement in tax-related issues and the turbulent French Revolution. In 1794, he faced a grim fate, falling victim to political upheaval. Despite passing away too soon, Lavoisier left a lasting impression on subsequent generations of scientists. His ground-breaking contributions to chemistry are still in use today, and his forays into the field of medicine helped set the stage for multidisciplinary research. Modern scientific procedures are influenced by Lavoisier’s careful procedures and emphasis on empirical data. His influence spread beyond the lab, touching a wide range of industries, including environmental science and medicine. Through his contributions, Lavoisier immortalized his influence on science and the global intellectual quest of humanity by making his name associated with creativity, fortitude, and the persistent search of knowledge.

VII. Conclusion

The significant influence of Antoine Lavoisier on chemistry and medical research endures to this day. His pioneering energy and unrelenting need for knowledge revolutionized basic scientific knowledge. Lavoisier’s legacy serves as a constant reminder that curiosity has no bounds, as evidenced by his investigations into respiration, metabolism, and healthcare administration. The QMe hospital Management and Information System, which was motivated by Lavoisier’s dedication to improving patient care, serves as evidence of his ongoing influence in the modern world. Lavoisier’s legacy serves as a beacon for future generations as science and medicine continue to advance, encouraging them to combine fields, push the envelope, and, like him, make an enduring contribution to the quest for knowledge and bettering human condition.

JANDARMALAR CEZA KESİYORLAR DENİZ KENARINDA VE TENHADA!

Hastalara, en kritik durumlarda, yoğun bakım ve acil servislerde, hayat kurtarıcı olarak Serum Fizyolojik dediğimiz, binde 9 yani, (% 0.9) oranında tuzlu su, infüzyonları verilmektedir. Senelerden beri, serum fizyolojik de ayrıca, buğu olarak, burun spreyi ve ağız yıkamaları için kullanılmakta ve eczanelerde halkımıza, şişelenmiş olarak satılmaktadır.

KBB ve çocuk hekimleri tarafından, burun tıkanıklığının açılması, rahat nefes alınabilmesi amacıyla üst solunum yolu infeksiyonlarında ve alerjik ve kronik rinit ve sinüzitli hastalara sıklıkla önerilmektedir. Bazı şartlarda, kronik sinüziti olan hastaların, sinüsleri operasyon ile delinerek, tuzlu su ile yıkama, önemli bir tedavi yöntemidir. Kronik burun tıkanıklığı ve kronik sinüzitİ senelerden beri süre gelen hastalarımıza, senelerden beri eczanelerimizde, şişelenmiş olarak, deniz suyu ve okyanus suyu faydalarından dolayı reçetesiz olarak satılmaktadır.

Kristal kaya tuzu ile tedaviye tıp dilinde Haloterapi denilmektedir. Kronik maksiller sinüsit tedavisinde, sinüslere operasyon ile delik açılmaksızın, tuzlu su ile rahatlıkla yıkayarak, sinüsleri temizleme ve tedavi etmenin mümkün olduğu bir çok bilimsel çalışmalarla gösterilmiştir[1] [2].

‘Saline (a sterile solution of salt) is routinely used in medicine—for inhalation via nebulizer, intravenously, in nasal washes and nasal sprays, etc. Hypertonic saline (higher concentration) nasal spray has shown some success in drawing fluid out of the tissue,’ Bowser says.

Hepimizin bildiği gibi, deniz suyu da hipertonik olan tuzlu bir sudur. Deniz suyunun MAGNEZYUM içeriği, deniz suyunu alkali, yani pH değerini oldukça yüksek yapmaktadır. Deniz suyu da aynı zamanda İYODLU bir sudur. Dr. Mark Sircus, SODIUM BICARBONATE. NATURE’S UNIQUE FIRST AID REMEDY adlı kitabında, bikarbonatlı su ile İYOT karışımının, güçlü ve geniş spektrumlu bir anti-mikrobiyal etkisi olduğunu bildirilmiştir[3].

Alkali olan iyotlu deniz suyu, geniş spektrumlu, yani geniş kapsamlı olan bir antibiyotik gibi mikropları öldürebilmektedir. Üstelik geniş spektrumlu antibiyotikler, ağız, burun boğaz, deri ve barsaklarda bulunan koruyucu dost mikrobiyomu yok ediyorken, İYOTLU olan deniz suyu, cildimizde olduğu gibi, AĞIZ BURUN BOĞAZ MUKOZASINDA VE MİDE İNCE VE KALIN BARSAK epitellerinde bulunan doğal ve dost mikrobiyomu beslemekte ve çoğaltmaktadır. Bu nedenle en başta SARS CoV-2, COVİD-19 virüsü olmak üzere, tüm virüs ve bakteri infeksiyonlarından korunmada ve alerjik reaksiyonları önlemede, son derece güçlü bir etkendir.

Kimya mühendisi ve çevre uzmanı olan sayın Prof. Mustafa Öztürk, SARS CoV-2, COVİD-19 VİRÜSÜNÜN hidrofobik, yani suyu sevmeyen bir VİRÜS türü olduğunu açıklamıştır. Prof. MUSTAFA Öztürk, solunan havadaki tuz oranı arttıkça SARS CoV-2, COVİD-19 virüs infeksiyonundan ölüm oranının azaldığını bildirmiştir. HİDROFOBİK OLAN, (yani suyu sevmeyen sudan korkan virüs) SARS CoV-2, COVİD-19 VİRÜSÜ, hidrofobik olan bir C-terminal proteinine sahiptir. Prof. Öztürk’e göre, SARS CoV-2, COVİD-19 VİRÜSÜ, bu nedenle suyu sevmez, yani HİDROFOBİKTİR.

Prof. Mustafa Öztürk’e göre, SARS CoV-2, COVİD-19 VİRÜSÜ nedeniyle ölüm oranı yüksek olan şehirlerde havadaki tuz miktarı düşük olarak ölçülmüştür (0.196 µg/m3). SARS CoV-2, COVİD-19 infeksiyonu nedeniyle ölüm oranı düşük olan şehirlerin havalarında, ise tuz içeriği oldukca yüksek olarak bulunmuştur (0.81 µg/m3).

Özetleyecek olursak, Prof. Mustafa Öztürk’ün açıklamalarında; ‘’Soluduğumuz havadaki tuz oranı arttıkça COVID-19 infeksiyonuna bağlı ölüm oranı azalmaktadır. Prof. Mustafa Öztürk’ün açıklamalarına göre; solunan havada tuz oranı yüksek olursa SARS CoV-2, COVİD-19 virüsü daha az yayılıyor. Yaz aylarında sıcaklığın artması ile kıyı şehirlerimizde havadaki tuz oranı da artmaktdır’ demektedir.

Profesör Öztürk:

1. Solunan Havasında yüksek tuz seviyesi olan, İngiltere’nin güneybatı bölgesinde, daha düşük tuzlu havası olan Londra’ya kıyasla daha az sayıda SARS CoV-2, COVİD-19 enfeksiyonu görülmektedir.

2. Solunan Havasında, oldukca Yüksek tuz bulunan Pekin’de de vaka sayısı, Wuhan’a oranla daha düşüktür.

3. İtalya’da solunan havanın tuz oranı az olduğu bilinen Lombardiya bölgesi COVID-19 infeksiyonundan ciddi şekilde etkilenmiştir. İtalya’nın güneyinde yüksek tuzlu bölgelerde ise virüs oranları çok düşük gözlemlenmiştir” diye açıklamalar yapmıştır.

Yukarıda açıkladığımız nedenlerle, kıyılarımızda kalabalığa karışmadan açık havada uzun uzun yürürsek, kalabalığa karışmadan sık sık denize girersek, SARS CoV-2, COVİD-19 virüsünün bulaşması ve yayılması azalacaktır, ve SARS CoV-2, COVİD-19 VİRÜSÜ infeksiyona yakalanmamız bu şekilde uygulama sonucu kolayca önlenecektir.

NOT: Sokağa çıkma yasağının, deniz kıyılarında mesafelerini koruyarak yürüyenlere, ya da denize girenlere uygulanması kanımca doğru bir uygulama değildir, yanlıştır. Halkın fizik ve mental olarak sağlıklı olmasını, bağışıklık sisteminin güçlenmesini engelleyen anlamsız, geçersiz bilimsellten uzak bir uygulamadır.

Bu bağlamda, hipertonik olan denizlerimizin sularının tuzluluk oranlarını açıklamayı bir borç biliyorum:

1.Tuzluluk oranı, Karadeniz'de binde 18,

2. Ege denizinde binde 25,

3. Akdeniz'de binde 36'dır.

4. Marmara denizinde Karadeniz’den gelen üst akıntılardan dolayı üst kısımlarında tuzluluk oranı binde 23 tür. Marmara denizinin güney kısımlarında tuzluluk oranı ise binde 36 civarındadır. Ege denizinin kuzeyinde tuzluluk oranı %33 güneyinde ise tuzluluk oranı binde 37 seviyesindedir[4].

Antibakteryel olan, İYOTLU ve Hipertonik Deniz suyunda, ayrıca, Na+Cl ile birlikte, kaya tuzunda bulunan bir çok temel mineral de bulunmaktadır. Bu nedenle deniz suyu da alkalidir: Kalsiyum Ca++, Magnezyum Mg++[5], Potasyum K+, Kromiyum Cr[6], Selenyum Se, Çinko Zn, Vanadium (V) gibi bir çok minerali dengeli olarak içermektedir.

Örneğin deniz suyunun eklendiği süt ile mayalanan yoğurdun ve tüm fermente gıdaların antibakteriyel etkilerinin arttığı bir çok bilimsel çalışmada gösterilmiştir[7] [8] [9].

Ayrıca deniz suyunda bekletilmiş olan yeşil çay yapraklarının antioksidan etkisininde çok daha fazla arttığı da gösterilmiştir[10].

İYOTLU ve HİPERTONİK olan, deniz suyunun, başta SARS CoV-2, COVİD-19 virüsü olmak üzere, bütün vürüsleri yok ettiği, güçlü bir antibakteryel etkisinin bulunmasının dışında, bilinen bir çok sağlık sorununu da doğal olarak giderdiği gösterilmiştir. Örnek verecek olursak, yayınlanmış olan bir çok deneysel laboratuvar çalışması sonucu tansiyonu, kolesterolü ve kan yağlarını düzenlediği, obezite, diyabet, karaciğer yağlanması gibi kronik hastalıkları giderebildiği bildirilmiştir[11] [12] [13] [14] [15] [16] [17] [18] [19].

Hipertonik ve İYOTLU olan deniz suyunun ayrıca, atopik egzema ve dermatit gibi alerjik ve kronik cilt hastalıklarına da iyi geldiği bir çok bilimsel çalışmada bildirilmiştir[20] [21].

ÖZETLE:

GEREK HİPERTONİK OLAN KRİSTAL KAYA TUZLU SU, GEREK HİPERTONİK OLAN İYOTLU DENİZ SUYU İLE GARGARA YAPMAK, AĞIZ-BURUN BOĞAZ MUKOZALARINI TEMİZLEMEKTE VE BAŞTA SARS CoV-2, COVİD-19 virüsü OLMAK ÜZERE, 400 TİP RİNOVİRÜS VE İNFLUENZA A ve B VİRÜSLERİNİ SOLUNUM YOLLARINA İNMELERİNİ ENGELLEMEKTE ve ÇEVREYE YAYILMAYI, BULAŞMAYI BU ŞEKİLDE ÖNLEMEKTEDİR.

Sonuç olarak, başta SARS CoV-2, COVİD-19 virüsü OLMAK ÜZERE, 400 TİP RİNOVİRÜS VE İNFLUENZA A ve B VİRÜSLERİNİN toplum içinde yayılmasının ve bulaşmasının önü kesilmektedir.

SONUÇ: 1. Denize giren, deniz kenarında oturup hava soluyan, deniz kenarında gezen vs. kişilere JANDARMA ve POLİSLERİN ceza kesmeleri kadar, büyük bir saçma, bilimsellikten uzak bir uygulama olamaz.

2. Tüm halkımızı denize girmeye ikna edersek (!) pandemi sona erer.

3. İÇİŞLERİ BAKANIMIZ SAYIN SOYLU’ya SESLENİYORUM, lütfen deniz kenarlarında, oturan, yatan, dolaşan, denizde yüzen kişilere ceza kesilmesi uygulamasını bir an önce durdurun.

The CIA Hologram Document Explained

Approved For Release 2000/08/15 : CIA-RDP96-00792R000500210001-9 PARAPSYCHOLOGY IN THE USSR. I. Reports of studies of psi in the USSR go back to the mid 19th century. According to MARTIN EBON, in his book, “PSI IN THE USSR, RELIGION WITHOUT A CROSS” (see Appendix 1, Reference Literature), Russian scientists and laity have been researching various parapsychological phenomena for decades before the 1917 October Revolution. - From 1857 to 1867, the newspaper "WESTNIK EUROPY® in Petersburg appeared, which dealt with mediums and other openly unexplainable phenomena. - The medium phenomenon was re-examined for its veracity around 1860 by a special committee of the Physical Society of the University of Petersburg, which was founded just for this purpose, and a dispute developed between Mendeleev and the then-prominent spiritualist A.N. Askov over the presumptions and methodologies of the study. Mendeleev had openly exposed fraudulent mediums. - The oldest known report of telepathy experiments in Russia describes, as does EBON in his book, telepathy experiments in Tashkent through Alexander Wilkins around 1870, and was published in Paris in the "Annals of Physical Science”. - The Russian Society for Experimental Psychology was founded in 1891. t was interested in clairvoyance, psychometry and poltergeist phenomena. Materialism led to a search for new, new, no longer religious truths. Hypnosis, seances, with their connections to ghosts, and a string of unexplainable, supernatural phenomena such as thought transference and other related areas were popular. - So, research in parapsychology in the USSR was about the same as in the USA and other European countries up until the time of the industrial revolution. II. EBON lists other scientists and works in parapsychology which occurred between the 1917 October revolution and the mid ’50s: - VLADIMIR M. BECHTEREV (Leningrad): mental communication between dogs and humans. - P,P. LAZAREV (1922): published "Psycho-chemical Principles of the Higher Nerve Energies", in which the possibility of telepathic communication due to neurological functions was studied. - B.B. KASCHINSKI: conducted other pertinent studies of mental telepathy with dogs, and published a book on thought transference in Moscow in 1923. ~ LEONID L. VASILIEV (died in 1966). A student of BECHTEREV, joined Approved For Release 2000/08/15 : CIA-RDP96-00792R000500210001-9 Approved For Release 2000/08/15 : CIA-RDP96-00792R000500210001-9 the Institute for Brain Research in Leningrad in 1921, and became a member of the committee to study mental suggestion (the expression for telepathy at that time). - 1924: The 2nd All-Russia Congress for Psych neurology recommended a Joint-work of the Russian scientists and the International Committee for Parapsychological Studies. - About 1925: The selected Committee for the Study of Mental Suggestion came about through the Society for Neurology, Reflexology, Hypnosis and Biophysics was ended. - 1928: The Institute of Brain Research in Leningrad began a study of the possible practical factors of telepathic phenomena from person to person, resulting in the conclusion that the phenomena of thought transference do not rest on “electromagnetism”. ~ 1959: Soviet parapsychology received strong impetus through the French publication of supposed American ship-to-shore telepathy attempts with the atomic submarine Nautilus, These attempts were officially denied by the Americans. - In April, 1960 LL, VASILIEV, according to Sheila Ostrander and Lynn Schroeder in their book "PSI" (see Appendix 1, Reference Literature), reprimanded soviet scientists, referring to these Nautilus reports, for their considerable number of ESP and telepathy studies which were carried out under Stalin’s regime, but were as yet unpublished, He stressed the need to shake of f the prejudices against parapsychology. He is convinced that the discovery of ESP energy will be of the same significance as atomic energy. ~ 1961: L.L. Vasilyeva received the leadership of the first ESP laboratories sponsored by the soviet administration; the Special Laboratory for Parapsychology at the University of Leningrad. - After Vasilyeva’s death in 1966, the centre of soviet parapsychological research partially shifted from Leningrad to Moscow, where IPPOLIT KOGAN, Director of the Section for Bioinformation on the totally soviet scientific and technical A.S. Popov Institute for Radiotechnology and Electrical Communication was located. - EDUARD K. NAUMOV and KARL NIKOLAEV were known at this time through telepathy experiments which were conducted over the distance of Moscow to Leningrad, - In the summer of 1968 a conference in Moscow on "Technical Parapsychology” took place. - NINA KULAGINA and WOLF MESSING are the two most famous soviet “tears” of this time with supposedly especially great parapsychological talent. N. KULAGINA fascinated onlookers with 2 Approved For Release 2000/08/15 : CIA-RDP96-00792R000500210001-9 Abutted For Rele P96-00792R000500210001-9 psychokinetic abilities, in which she made compass needles and other articles move with an energy which seemed to radiate from her hands. W. MESSING held large crowds of spectators with his telepathic exhibitions in Bann. - In July, 1970, the Russian newspaper “Radio-Technika” published research results of the above mentioned professor KOGAN in Moscow, which had supposedly convincingly proven the existence of telepathic possibilities through statistical methods. ~ 8S. OSTRANDER and L. SCHROEDER in their book "PSI* maintained that while, by 1970 there were already more than 30 centres in the USSR for the study of paranormal phenomena, and that by 1967 there were already yearly budgets of at least 13 million rubbles had been put at their disposal for these studies, and parapsychology in the USSR enjoyed official sanction, VLADIMIR LVOV's article in the newspaper LE MONDE (4 AUG 76) denied it (official) recognition in the USSR. He logically pointed out in his article that it is a mistake to accept that parapsychology enjoyed official recognition in the USSR. Moreover, the truth was simply that, parapsychology in the Soviet Union was not recognized as an official branch of science. No institute and no research centre in the Soviet Union devoted itself to telepathy or psychokinesis, etc., but there were simply a group of amateurs who associated themselves with the paranormal. According to EBON, this opposing opinion makes clear the unpleasant situation in which parapsychology found itself in Russia at this time. It held no official status, but individuals and private groups could carry on such studies without special official intervention, Further examples of the historical development of soviet parapsychology are found listed in Appendix 1, Reference literature of western authors. The book "PSI" by S. OSTRANDER and L. SCHROEDER contains an extensive source of proof. It. A literature search on the theme, made in open-source databanks in December, 1990, for the time around 1968, turned up 27 institutes and/or centres in which researchers were occupied with paranormal phenomena, in the widest sense of the term (see List of Institutes, Appendix 2). Here were explored practically all aspects of parapsychology, such as the general concept "ESP" line German, ASW), and the subject reports of telepathy, telepathic hypnosis, clairvoyance, as well as the concept of "psychokinesis” (the physical influence of man over matter), which encompasses the study of the human biofield, the application of the KIRLIAN effect, and healing through laying on of hands. There appear to be the reports of telepathy and telepathic hypnosis, like hypnosis per se, which the most basic research and the widest development of reports of soviet parapsychology. Approved For Release 2000/08/15 : CIA-RDP96-00792R000500210001-9 SG1E Approved For Release 2000/08/15 : CIA-RDP96-00792R000500210001-9 In 1962 L.L. VASILIEV, in his book on experimental studies of "mental suggestion”, showed the advanced position of (such) pertinent research in the USSR. Efforts toward the aimed telepathic manipulation of human consciousness seem to have played a large role in telepathic hypnosis. Research and application of hypnosis is wide spread in the USSR. It is used in medicine, psychotherapy, physiology, psychology, psychiatry, and in experimental education. Also the possibility of the development and application of drugs for the augmentation of hypnosis was researched. soviet scientists such as L.L. VASILIEV, I.M. KOGAN, V. MUTSCHALL, V.F. BASSIN, M.V. AVAKUMOV, ID. DUBROVSKI, V.L. RAIKOV and PA. SLOBODYANIK, with their co-authors have made names for themselves in the above named reports for the timespan of 1968 on. The exceptional works published just in the 3 years 1969-1971 by S.A. EGOROV, P.V. ZAGRYADSKI, F.D. MORDVINOV and N.B. YAKOVETS and their co-authors from the Kirov Military-Medical Academy in Leningrad, fall especially into the area of psychophysiological research in connection with ergonometric questions, and only peripherally have something to do with parapsychology (see also Appendix 3, Author list). Isil. It was reported again and again in the rainbow press that the military and the secret police were behind the Russian efforts to get a scientific grip on parapsychology. The contents of these statements could never be substantiated and the soviet open-source literature on parapsychology also gives no reliable evidence. Certain revelations in the past years in the USSR have made assumptions that research has been done here - but these and the research results were and will be held in secret. Signs of the efforts of soviet parapsychologists to use telepathy as a world-wide telecommunications system for cosmonauts between one another and between earth and the cosmonauts in Space were already visible in the 50’s. In 1967, the Russian trade paper "Marine Report” wrote that cosmonauts in apace can “gat together (mentally) with each other easier than with people on earth. Psi-training wag said to have been taken up on the cosmonauts training program. Supposedly, phenomenal psi experiments between soviet cosmonauts and scientists on the earth were said to have been conducted. The dates and results of these experiments, however, were not published in open-source literature, so a firm evaluation of these efforts is not possible. In a purely news-report fashion, the subject-complexity of parapsychology in the USSR and its application by the military and the KGB is contradictory, based on, in part, conflicting rumours: - In 1977 a specialist in Psychiatry from the Serb ski Institute in Moscow, with a good possibility of insight into the situation declared in an article named "CONTROLLED BY THE KGB” which appeared in “Der SPIEGEL” (4 JUL 77), that Psi in the USSR was an unrealistic sensationalism of half-truths and the fantasies of 4 Approved For Release 2000/08/15 : CIA-RDP96-00792R000500210001-9 Approved For Release 2000/08/15 : CIA-RDP96-00792R000500210001-9 Journalist, Parapsychology was not a recognized science in the USSR. The arrest of the American Journalist TOTH at that time didn’t reveal that parapsychology in the USSR could have been seen as a state secret. It could have dealt with a completely normal paper of the KGB which a western journalist took from a soviet citizen, SG1B In the USSR, "Psi capabilities of biological systems” is the theme of exhaustive studies. The buzz-words for it are “Bioenergy” and “Hypersensitivity”. In the area of the so-called EMV~/EMC research a newly named scientific trend, under the buzz-word "Psychotronic”, shall be researched (to see) if it is actually a latent human possibility to be able to activate one’s bioelectric Field to join with distant objects and subjects. The principal of “Laying on of the hands” as a diagnostic tool for the sick will be conducted in the Poly-clinic of the State Planning Committee of the USSR in Moscow, which is situated directly under the Health Ministry. To the list of institutes which are occupied with the problem of "the nature of the biological energy field” belong, among others: The Institute for Psychology, Moscow, 37a Vavilov St. (Director, B.F. Lomo), fields of study: research of the material basis of the Psyche; psychological problems in its relationship to the driving of modern technology: Psychophysiology of the brain. These take place in cooperation with work in “the laboratory for cell physiology and synaptic control” of the "Institute for Higher Nerve Activity and Neurophysiology”, Moscow, and with the “Department of Kinetics Chemical and Biological Processes" of the Institute of Chemical Physics (N.N. Semenov)”, Moscow. This project also addresses research into the “KIRLIAN-effect”, the physical proof of “finger radiation", which, for example, might allow lay practitioners to make diagnoses, to achieve healings with this particular process, triggered on the skin of the human body or on the surface of various plants. Equipment necessary for the proof of the "KIRLIAN-effect” was developed and built in the "Special Construction Bureau” for the "biological apparatus building” in Podcatching.

It is interesting that “materialistic science” (tries) first of all to prove that all events are physically explainable. On this basis, the proof of the appearance of “rays” which come from living things demands a great deal of dedicated research, By the same token, it is also interesting to find out the possibilities of strengthening and making this type of “rays” useful for various applications. The applications Span from medical fields, like diagnosis and healing in a relatively simple (and cheap) way by influencing of the “psychically sick” (as it is officially called), to the communication between living beings over short or long distances, without tapping into or disturbing such a communications system. - In November 1986 a western scientist with the Opportunity of good insight into the research and application of medical hypnosis in the USSR transmitted the following details: Medical hypnosis is used intensively in the RGW field in the USSR. The primary work "Chemical and Experimental Hypnosis” by WILLIAM S, KROGER serves as the groundwork for the basis of corresponding intended research. The basic research for the subject area of “medical hypnosis” is carried out in the USSR at the Pavlov Institute and the Institute of Psychology in Moscow, as well as in “some branches” in Siberia. It deals with a known discipline within “psychosomatic medical word”, and this hypnosis will be inserted into several areas of Operative medicine, but algo therapy for the alleviation and elimination of pain, as it deals with neurologically conditioned pain. Beyond that, various groups have been schooled in the basis of the so-called “hypnotic Influence”, such as a scientist to whom important assignments have been given, or those appointed to special interest organizations in western countries, and also cosmonauts taking a 3-month hypnosis training course. That means that if the person tries to gain a "photographic memory”, it enables him to faithfully recapture visuals, audial, and even after a longer time, pictures and letters, Insofar as the above contents of these “service reports” which refer to the tangle of military or KGB interests, are whole, but also only partly proven, they cannot be Judged as undoubtable, APPENDIX 1 contains a reference list of western authors and a bibliography of their related works, APPENDIX 2 contains a reference list of soviet institutions with contributing authors and the titles of their works. APPENDIX 3 contains a reference list of soviet authors and a bibliography of their related works. Approved For Release 2000/08/15 : CIA-RDP96-00792R000500210001-9

When Gray and Gualy were kids, pediatricians thought that the average age of onset of puberty in girls—defined in most medical literature as thelarche, when breast tissue begins to develop—was about eleven years old. Menarche, or first period, was thought to happen around age thirteen. Only a small percentage of girls had started puberty by the age of eight, much less started menstruating. But, by the two-thousands, new research had found that eighteen per cent of white girls, thirty-one per cent of Hispanic girls, and forty-three per cent of Black girls had entered thelarche by age eight, according to a study published in 2010.

A paper published in August in the journal Frontiers in Pediatrics, which analyzed data from South Korea’s national statistics portal, found that the number of children diagnosed with precocious puberty almost doubled between 2016 and 2021, with a sharp post-2020 spike.

On average, the girls in the study began showing breast buds—the “Tanner II” stage—at age eleven or so, and began menstruating between thirteen and fourteen.

Some of the numbers in the Harpenden Growth Study have held up remarkably well: the average age for a first period, for example, has only dropped to about twelve and a half.

When researchers investigated possible reasons that more girls were entering puberty sooner, they focussed on three main factors. One was stress—they hypothesized that higher cortisol levels might contribute to the premature activation of the pituitary and adrenal glands. A second factor was exposure to endocrine-disrupting chemicals, which can scramble or mimic the body’s naturally occurring hormones.

Speculation about the main causes of early puberty eventually coalesced around a third factor, one that was easier to isolate: body-mass index. Average B.M.I. and obesity rates in girls had risen somewhat in tandem with rates of early puberty.

Early puberty is very real but seems to be much more about breast development than first period.

The X-Ray Diffraction Pattern of the Ash Content on Ignition at 900 ˚C of a Copy Paper Sample and its Mechanical and Optical Properties_Crimson Publishers

Abstract

The ash on ignition at 900 ˚C of a A4 copy paper sample UPM New Future Multi was determined to be 15.4%w/w and its X-ray diffraction pattern showed the presence of only portlandite syn Ca(OH)2 peaks placed at 2θ values of 18o, 29o, 34o, 46o, 47o, 51o, 54o, 63o, 72o which corresponded to crystal planes of 111, 110, 112. The high tensile force value of 4.5KN/m of the dry A4 copy paper sample correlated well with its high pH value of 9.6 and high ash on ignition content of 15.4%w/w. Along with them the roughness Bendtsen of the paper was found in a scale which related well with its pick resistance measured to be 1.96m/s in the machine direction and 0.39m/s in the counter direction. The band gap energy Eg from the Diffuse Reflection Spectroscopy (DRS) study of the A4 copy paper sample was calculated to be 1.169715722005400000000000eV. The absorption coefficient α(ν) near the edges was calculated to be 4.27185997cm-1 and the band gap was obtained by intercepting the linear fitted line in the plot of (αhv)^2 versus hv. The X-Ray powder diffraction pattern of portlandite was indexed by trial and error, and some peaks were assigned their hkl values. Finally, the Miller indices of the reflections were determined as well as the separation of planes. The separation of the 111 plane in the rhombohedral lattice was calculated to be 0.2984038nm. The separation of the 110 plane in the rhombohedral lattice was calculated to be 0.423379nm and of the 112 plane was 0.2205806429nm.

A Conditioning Guide for Power Athletes

Here's what you need to know... Programmed wisely, concurrent training - focusing on strength and conditioning at exactly the same time - can make you stronger. The myth about endurance work causing strength loss was extracted from research including extreme cases. GPP isn't that very important to powerlifting meets, but it is when it comes to training for those fits. Having a good foundation of conditioning will speed recovery from weight training. Mobility circuits kill two birds with one rock: mobility needs and general conditioning. And it takes merely 15 minutes. Endurance and strength? You might have heard that strength athletes should avoid cardio, skip conditioning, and only focus on the strength side of sport. Maybe you've listened to that advice. It makes sense after all. Concurrent training - training for both endurance and power for example - won't offer you optimum results on either end of the range. But is that true really? Perhaps you have ever investigated how different types of training help one another? Rev Your Engine There's more to conditioning than simply improving a mile time, cranking up your VO2 max, or cutting weight for the beach. Conditioning can be an engine to the power source of your body. Regardless of your sport, conditioning is a right part of the training plan that needs to be put in play. The type of sport you participate in dictates the style and programming of conditioning just. Concurrent Training: THE STUDY Research shows that power benefits are created with concurrent training still. Studies by McCarthy et. Al. and Kraemer et. Al. both show improvements in strength with combined groups just like those who power trained only. The myth of strength reduction with endurance training was extracted from research that showed acute cases and placed in to the masses. Power sports simply adopted this train of thought, and none more than the activity of powerlifting. Powerlifters: Strong and Totally Out of Shape? Powerlifting has evolved and changed within the last couple decades and it has just recently began to grow out of a vintage college teach of thought. It certainly is been accepted that powerlifters are over weight and need no type of athleticism or conditioning. I select powerlifting here because it's one of the only sports activities that relies strictly on maximum strength and has no form of endurance in nature. It's a sport where each event may last, on the upper end, seven secs, and large amounts of rest receive between bouts. When you look at it from the outside, you could easily argue there is no reason behind conditioning of any sort for this athlete. But those who know science could attest to the need with the new light that has been shown on concurrent training. Some research has proven that training both endurance and power at the same time will result in a lessened aftereffect of strength gain. That is a problem as it pertains to a sport that relies solely on maximum strength. However, where people go wrong is the study that shows this looks at a larger level of endurance training and doesn't take into consideration a well-scheduled program. So of delving deeper instead, people (myself once included) just take it for what it's well worth and throw conditioning out the windows. The nagging issues that come with this notion are vast and dangerous. Laying a Foundation Like creating any powerful landmark just, there needs to be a solid base. Without a base the structure will crumble and fall with a blur of a lifespan just. A similar thing goes when discussing a solid and powerful body. If the base is skipped it's only a matter of time until progress comes to a screeching halt and injuries start to occur. With the big three lifts, a major foundational point is the basics of motion - the idea of how to properly squat, bench press, and deadlift without compensation. This is essential for any lifter and must be mastered to continuously improve. Along with that is something called General Physical Preparedness. GPP is the idea of the body's energy systems being conditioned to work longer and more efficiently. For a powerlifter, competition day relies more on the ATP/Computer system for short, maximal outputs. However, as it pertains to training for a meeting, a lifter with better GPP can complete more working pieces, more exercises, and thus enable better strength gains than would an sportsman with poor conditioning. Attempting to increase mitochondrial muscle and density glycogen stores models a muscle up to have the ability to work longer, which gives an sportsman the ability to put more into the training. Better training equals better results. Energy Systems and Recovery When it comes to recovery, lifters are always looking for an edge. From supplements to rest to nourishment, lifters 're going out of their way to find the next big thing. Why? Because faster recovery means more training and more training means better results. But exactly what does fitness have to do with recovery? The answer is simple: energy systems. When we train we create chemical changes that cause the fatigue we feel. Muscles run out of energy substrates such as ATP. Lactic acid and hydrogen ions build up (the burn we all like to hate) and glycogen stores get slowly depleted. With conditioning, an athlete can improve air delivery to the muscles, create more efficient creation of ATP, and oxidize lactic acid. The aerobic system is the main power source for recovery. Blood transport is essential for nutrients, human hormones, metabolites, and waste materials. Its capability to pump in the nutrients needed and pump out the waste takes on an enormous role in both performance and health (2). With an improvement in nutrient and oxygen transport, a lifter will not only be able to work longer with a much better work capacity, but will also start recovering from training faster and more efficiently. This improved recovery will business lead to more frequent and effective workout sessions. An additional aspect to this improvement is that of competition day. Several full times last all night upon hours, and by time the deadlift rolls around many lifters have fatigued and miss quantities they have hit over and over in the fitness center. With an improved aerobic base your body can fully recover after every attempt and stay fresher throughout the day resulting in deadlift PRs. Fat or fit? Looking back at the annals of powerlifting there are a couple of things that always stood out: these folks were crazy strong plus they were also fat. Yes, I said body fat. Old-school powerlifters seemed to all share the same non-e and features of these features matched their bodybuilding counterparts. When I was younger I usually just accepted that the weight was an edge, however now I've noticed the higher unwanted fat content is not an advantage but actually a detriment. Why Do Many Powerlifters Get Fat Anyhow? To get stronger we should eat in a calorie surplus and when doing that, mixed with a lack of conditioning, weight gain is inevitable. As a lifter, strength is the main goal and therefore nutrition becomes an aid to power instead of a street to sexy. This is all fine and dandy but if you really break it down there's a way to get both. The Best of Both global worlds Research and practice have led us to numerous breakthroughs in the global world of nourishment. We know more now than previously and we've learned the culprits behind unwanted fat storage. We've also started studying the medicinal effects of certain foods and how they can help our performance in all respects of life. It's time we start using this knowledge for strength and physique and stop being lazy. By viewing macros and micros we can manipulate our diets to not only lose fat but also keep and even gain strength at the same time. However, to get this done we have to utilize conditioning in our programs. In short, powerlifters have no reason to anymore be fat. It only is practical as a powerlifter to be as trim as you possibly can. Powerlifting is divided into weight classes and you merely compete against other lifters in your course. So if two lifters weight 220 pounds and one lifter is 10% body fat as the other is 20% surplus fat, math tells us that the lifter with only 10% body fat will have more muscle mass therefore have a larger potential for strength. It's only logical to be leaner than your rivals and carry a greater potential. Planning It All Out Conditioning for the strength athlete shall improve body composition, work capacity, and recovery, all leading to a far more efficient lifter and better training. read this The best question now is how to program it so that it doesn't block the way of strength training. A strength sportsman isn't seeking to run mls upon miles and spend hours with an elliptical every week to enter conditioning. There is no dependence on that amount of duration and exercise selection should become more specific to the activity. Through the off-season is when nearly all an aerobic base should be built. This is the time of the entire year where 3-4 classes can be applied each week with each program lasting anywhere between 20-60 minutes. These sessions could be anything from walking, stadium stairs, or sled drags. As an athlete gets nearer to competition and enters into prep phase, the frequency should be lowered and the exercise selection could be adjusted. Some of the best things for conditioning are timed sled drags, flexibility circuits, and med ball work. website here Whatever you might choose, the goal is to keep the heart rate around 130-150bpm and make an effort to keep lactic build up to a minimum. Progress every week with the addition of time or reps slowly. It's most appropriate to incorporate lower body work your day following a heavy squat or deadlift session and chest muscles work the day after a heavy bench session. This allows for increased blood flow to the damaged muscles, accelerating recovery time and lessening soreness. Below is an example week of training with conditioning: Monday Bench: 5 x 2 85% Close Grasp Bench: 3 x 8 Chest Backed Row: 5 x 10 Chin-Up: 4 x 10 Triceps Extension: 3 x 15 Tuesday 25 Min Flexibility Circuit Wednesday Squat: 5 x 2 85% Paused Squat: 3 x 6 RDL: 4 x 8 Glute-Ham Increase: 4 x 8 Thursday 20 Min Sled Move: 45lbs Friday Over head Press: 5 x 5 Pull-Up: 5 x 10 Dumbbell Row: 5 x 10 Pressdown: 3 x 15 Saturday Deadlift : 8 x 1 70% Entrance Squat: 5 x 5 AB Rollout: 5 x 10 Sunday 60 min Incline Walk Mobility Circuits One idea here is to include mobility circuits. These kill two birds with one stone and can be a great addition to anyone's training plan. Focus on 4-5 exercises targeting mobility focus on areas or motions which may be lacking. Perform 15-20 repetitions per exercise. Move through each exercise in a circuit fashion and continue for anywhere between 15 and 30 minutes. The heartrate should stay up around 130bpm and the athlete should build up a sweat. This not only helps conditioning but improves movement quality also. Stop USING THE Excuses There's been a stigma placed on powerlifting as a fat and lazy sport. Individuals who don't wish to accomplish cardio choose to just lift heavy instead. But there's a lot more to powerlifting than simply weight lifting. It's a testament of power both actually and mentally. It takes guts and drive to get under those weights knowing they could crush you. There's a feeling of sophistication and athleticism involved with the proper execution and positioning, and there are a pride directed at those who succeed. Crush that stigma and show pride in your capability, your physique, as well as your athleticism. Stop the stereotype and create a fresh look for powerlifting and power sports over the board. Build your conditioning, improve your recovery, and arranged new records.

Plants don’t get enough credit.

They move. You know this. Your houseplant salutes the sun each morning. At night, it returns to center.

You probably don’t think much of it. This is simply what plants do: Get light. Photosynthesize. Make food. Live.

But what about all the signs of plant intelligence that have been observed?

Under poor soil conditions, the pea seems to be able to assess risk. The sensitive plant can make memories and learn to stop recoiling if you mess with it enough. The Venus fly trap appears to count when insects trigger its trap. And plants can communicate with one another and with caterpillars.

Now, a study published recently in Annals of Botany has shown that plants can be frozen in place with a range of anesthetics, including the types that are used when you undergo surgery.

Insights gleaned from the study may help doctors better understand the variety of anesthetics used in surgeries. But the research also highlights that plants are complex organisms, perhaps less different from animals than is often assumed.

“Plants are not just robotic, stimulus-response devices,” said Frantisek Baluska, a plant cell biologist at the University of Bonn in Germany and co-author of the study. “They’re living organisms which have their own problems, maybe something like with humans feeling pain or joy. In order to navigate this complex life, they must have some compass.”

Plants sometimes use that compass to deal with stress, competition or development. They take in information from their environment and produce their own anesthetics like menthol, ethanol and cocaine, similar to how humans release chemicals that dull pain during trauma. These may act within the plant itself or float off in the air to affect neighboring plants.

Our anesthetics work on plants too, the study confirmed, although what exactly they’re working on is unclear.

The researchers trapped pea plants in glass chambers with ether, soaked roots of the sensitive plant and seedlings of garden cress in lidocaine and even measured the electrical activity of a Venus fly trap’s cells. An hour or so later the plants became unresponsive. The seedlings stayed dormant. And the Venus fly trap didn’t react to a stimulus similar to a bug crawling across its maw. Its cells stopped firing.

When the dope wore off, the plants returned to life, as if something had hit pause — almost like they were regaining consciousness, something we typically don’t think they possess. It’s all so animal-like.

“How organisms are perceiving the environment or responding or adapting are based on some very similar principles,” Dr. Baluska said.

Researchers already knew that anesthetics with different chemical structures or elements all seem to halt pain, consciousness or activity in plants and animals — even bacteria. But how they render us unconscious or how so many different kinds physically act on the human nervous system still elude us after more than a century of use. Some bind to receptors to turn off activity. But this can’t explain them all.

Under anesthetics, the physical properties of cell membranes change, becoming more flexible. Apply pressure to the cells, this effect is reversed and the anesthetic wears off. This suggests that something simple, like what is physically happening to a cell’s membrane, may be the common denominator explaining anesthetics’ effects across the plant and animal kingdoms, Dr. Baluska and colleagues suggest.

In some plant root cells under anesthesia, Dr. Baluska and his colleagues found that membranes were having trouble doing what they normally do, recycling bits of cellular material by transporting it in and out of cells.

Dr. Baluska can’t say what was altering membrane function in the plants, but membranes are important for transferring messages via electricity from one cell to another, messages that would lead to action or movement.

The electrical activity that moves across neurons is thought by some scientists to contribute to human consciousness. If electrical activity is being disrupted by anesthetic in plants, too, causing them to “lose consciousness,” does that mean, in some way, that they are conscious?

“No one can answer this because you cannot ask them,” said Dr. Baluska.

Even so, perhaps we’re more alike, us and plants, than we think.

Correction: February 3, 2018

An earlier version of this article misstated what happens to cell membranes under anesthestics. Their flexibility changes, they do not fill with fluid.

Medicinal Marijuana Health Benefits

Medicinal Marijuana Health Benefits -Most plants contain a wealth of antioxidant compounds, and cannabis is no different. The majority of its antioxidant effects come from its cannabinoids, flavonoids, and terpenes. Let’s look at each of these compounds in more detail.

Cannabinoids

To date, over 100 cannabinoids have been identified in cannabis. However, the two that have undergone the most rigorous testing are delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and cannabidiol (CBD).

THC is arguably the most well-known chemical in cannabis as it is responsible for its intoxicating effects. However, CBD has recently gained much attention for its potential health benefits. Among these benefits, CBD is believed to be anti-inflammatory, neuroprotectant, and a powerful antioxidant.

Research published in 2000 in the Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences found that both THC and CBD possessed potent antioxidant effects. However, CBD was found to be the more beneficial of the two. The study’s authors stated that CBD appeared to be an even more effective antioxidant than either vitamin C or vitamin E.

Flavonoids

Flavonoids are phenolic compounds, a class of chemicals found in various plants, including fruit, vegetables, herbs, tea, and cannabis. A whopping 8000 different phenolic compounds have been identified to date, and many of these are flavonoids.

Flavonoids act as both direct and indirect antioxidants. This means that as well as stabilizing ROS, they also reduce their production by the body.

Cannabis contains as many as 20 different flavonoids, including cannflavin A and cannflavin B, which are unique to this extraordinary plant. Among other things, these two compounds are believed to have potent anti-inflammatory effects.

Terpenes

Terpenes are another type of chemical found in many different plants. They are aromatic compounds and play an essential role in protecting the plant from pests. They also give plants their characteristic aromas and flavors.

Cannabis contains many different terpenes. Some of the most common are myrcene, limonene, pinene, and linalool. As well as making cannabis smell and taste great, terpenes have a variety of different health benefits. One of these is their antioxidant properties.

A study published in Cannabis and Cannabinoid Research in 2018 found that many of the different terpenes in cannabis had antioxidant effects. However, none of the terpenes tested were as potent as CBD.

Medicinal Marijuana Health Benefits - Using Marijuana as an Antioxidant

If one wants to maximize marijuana’s antioxidant effects, there are several steps that one can take. The first is choosing a strain that is rich in CBD. These days, most strains are bred to have a high THC content, but a select few have been bred specifically for CBD.

A few popular CBD-rich strains include:

Charlotte’s Web

ACDC

Cannatonic

Harlequin

Ringo’s Gift

In addition to choosing a strain with a healthy dose of CBD, a person must also pay attention to how they consume cannabis.

Smoking is known to cause oxidative stress, especially when one combines cannabis with tobacco. Therefore, this is not the most optimal way to use cannabis for its antioxidant effects. Another problem with smoking is that many of marijuana’s beneficial compounds are destroyed by intense heat.

Fortunately, there are numerous other ways to consume marijuana. These include edibles, tinctures, concentrates, and vaping. If a person chooses to vape their cannabis, they must ensure that they set their vaporizer to the right temperature. This will help to preserve those beneficial cannabinoids and terpenes.

Finally, consider the part of the plant that one is using. Although cannabinoids and terpenes are most concentrated in the buds of female marijuana plants, flavonoids can be found throughout the whole plant. This includes the leaves and stems of both male and female marijuana specimens.

So, if a person grows cannabis, they can maximize the benefits by using every part of the plant after harvesting. Leaves and stems may not have an intoxicating effect, but one can add them to smoothies, juices, salads, or tea for a healthy dose of antioxidants every day.

Medicinal Marijuana Health Benefits - Is Marijuana an Antioxidant? Final Thoughts

Cannabis is a plant with a whole host of benefits for human health, including its antioxidant properties. It derives its benefits from a wide range of compounds, including cannabinoids, flavonoids, and terpenes, all of which have a dramatic influence on the body.
