![]() However, it has multiple physiological roles, including interacting with ion channels, membrane stabilization, and cellular osmoregulation ( Shihabi et al., 1989 Schaffer and Kim, 2018). Taurine is a prominent free amino acid with little or no role in protein synthesis. Systematic Review Registration:, PROSPERO (CRD42021225243). Finally, we observed that a low dose of taurine (0.05 g) before performing strength enhancing exercises can decrease muscular fatigue and increase enzymatic antioxidants. However, further studies are warranted to establish the role of taurine in fat metabolism during exercise. However, acute administration of taurine (6 g) at a high dose before the start of exercise had no effect on reducing lactate level, but increased glycerol levels, suggesting that taurine could be an effective agent for prolonged activities, particularly at higher intensities. Furthermore, 1 g of acute taurine administration before or after exercise can decrease lactate levels. From the selected literature, we observed that taurine supplementation (2 g three times daily) with exercise can decrease DNA damage. The following parameters were used to assess exercise performance in the selected studies: creatine kinase (CK), lactic acid dehydrogenase, carbohydrate, fat, glycerol, malondialdehyde, enzymatic antioxidants, blood pH, taurine level, and muscular strength. Ten articles were retrieved, reviewed, and subjected to systematic analysis. In accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) statement, relevant articles were sought on PubMed, Medline, Web of Science, and Google Scholar using related terms, including taurine, exercise performance, exercise, muscle, physical training, running, strength, endurance exercise, resistance exercise, aerobic exercise, and swimming. ![]() Therefore, this review aimed to systematically review the dose response of taurine on both aerobic and strength exercise performance. However, how this molecule orchestrates such functions is unknown, particularly the dose response in exercised muscles. Taurine is a naturally occurring amino acid involved in various functions, including regulating ion channels, cell volume, and membrane stabilization. 4School of Health and Life Sciences, University of the West of Scotland, Blantyre, United Kingdom.3School of Agricultural Sciences and Rural Development (SASRD), Nagaland University, Medziphema, India.2Laboratory of Exercise Biochemistry in Health, Graduate Program in Health Sciences, School of Medicine, Pontifícia Universidade Católica do Paraná, Curitiba, Brazil.1Faculty of Sports Science, Ningbo University, Ningbo, China.Ugbolue 4 Anand Thirupathi 1 * Yaodong Gu 1 *

(Fees at the multiple campgrounds in the area range from $18-$24 per night look here for a list). ![]() From Ketchum, drive up Idaho state Route 75 through the Wood River Valley. Idaho’s Dark Sky Reserve lies north of the Sun Valley Resort in Ketchum, in the south-central part of the state, a region where you can also hike, fish, go kayaking and paddleboarding, and view waterfalls. Olivia Duin, 18, warms up for stargazing at the Lodge at Summer Lake, Lake County, in a parcel of real estate often called Oregon’s “empty quarter.” She is facing the 3,000-foot Winter Ridge. Here are nine other great places to see thousands of stars, planets, star clusters, meteors, man-made satellites, the Andromeda Galaxy, and the Milky Way. Be aware: savvy travelers are already snapping up lodgings from Crater Lake National Park to the town of Burns, in the Oregon Outback. Southern Oregon is smack in the middle of the upcoming annular solar eclipse on October 14. ![]() The state’s darkest-sky site, Kowalik said, is in the Hart Mountain National Antelope Refuge just outside of Lakeview, a town near the California state line. A park ranger identifies a constellation for visitors at a stargazing program in Rocky Mountain National Park, Colorado. Together, the two displays should be a good show. Another prominent shower, the Delta Aquarids, whose point of origin or radiant is the constellation Aquarius, will peak around July 29 to 30. This year the Perseids should be best seen from July 17 to August 24, peaking around August 13. Stargazing is best when there’s a new moon or during meteor showers, such as the Perseids, a prolific annual display associated with the comet Swift–Tuttle, which appears to originate from the constellation Perseus. ”The first time you see the Milky Way, you don’t forget it.” “We are passionate about this,” said Bill Kowalik, a retired geologist who chairs the IDSA’s Oregon chapter. Thanks to the social distancing of recent years, stargazing has exploded in popularity even though as much as 80 percent of all Americans have never seen a star-filled sky, according to. The group has submitted a 160-page application to the IDSA for this tract in Oregon to join 17 other locations around the world as official sanctuaries, but many local, state, and federal agencies must sign on first. “What we are doing is preserving the best left in the lower 48,” said Bob Hackett, executive director of Travel Southern Oregon. Star trails over Summer Lake Hot Springs, the Oregon outback (Photo: Joey Hamilton/Travel Oregon) Pending approval by the Tucson-based nonprofit International Dark Sky Association (IDSA), the area would become the largest officially recognized stargazing sanctuary in the world. If a group of avid astronomers have their way, the combined 11.4 million acres (17,187 square miles) in these counties will become a Dark Skies Sanctuary, a designation for visual quality and remoteness. Nighttimes we looked at the skies-or tried to. Instead, we settled for a scramble in an up-to 70-foot-deep ravine aptly named Crack in the Ground near Christmas Valley, in the northern part of the county. When we arrived in the area for several days last month, snow still covered the ground down to about 3,000 feet, so high-altitude hiking was out. The entire parcel of real estate is called the Oregon Outback, or its “empty quarter” because of the sparse population, vast ranges, and high deserts. Lake County is the westernmost of Oregon’s three southeastern counties. There are hot springs, 300 species of birds-and world-class dark skies. My daughter and I were in Lake County, Oregon, a region that is savage but lovely, with sagebrush, juniper, and bunch grasses, and several fish and wildlife areas. To the east hung the bright orange star Arcturus. Leo was directly above me in one direction, the Big Dipper in the other. Auriga was already rising in the west, with its brightest star, Capella, gleaming against the black. Then around 10:30 on a cold April night, the clouds lifted, and the constellations swung into view. I’d been waiting five days for the Oregon skies to light up. First it was the moon, then it was cloudy, then it rained. ![]() ![]() The best way to limit Google's data collection is to delete your account, but you needn't go that far to staunch the flow. That includes "activity" settings, profile information and personalised advertising if you've got a Google account, get a cup of tea (or something stronger) and spend half an hour going through each and every control. Google's default settings favour data collection rather than personal privacy, but the company has made it easier to consider your settings on the Data & Personalisation page with the Privacy Checkup, which walks you through a set of questions regarding your settings. Now that you've got a sense of the epic scale of data being collected, it's time to do something about it. How to clean up your Google account settings If you think Google is leaving something out, or has more data on you it's not willingly revealing, you can also file a subject-access request, which is a right enshrined in EU law to find out what data any organisation holds on you. Google notes that if you search on Maps for "football fields near me" or watch match highlights on YouTube, it can put two and two together that you're a football fan.Įyeing up Takeout, Dashboard, and your personal and advertising profile, you'll get a good sense of the epic mountain of data Google is accumulating about who you are, where you go, and what interests you. Such behavioural advertising can be more sophisticated than that. Google uses the data it collects to build an advertising profile, making its money via ads – Google's parent firm Alphabet posted ad revenue of $32.6 billion last quarter – not by directly selling your data, but through letting companies personalise their advertisements this is why that pair of trainers you’ve been coveting keep following you around the web. You can't simply delete this data, but if you want to obfuscate you can of course enter false information – just remember you've done so in case you need that information for password resets. Under the menu, head to "Personal Info": on this page, you can see what information Google makes public about you and update information such as your photo and birthdate. If you want to freak someone out, show them their location timeline, where Google Maps keeps track of everywhere you go and when, alongside the photos taken that day and travel times down to the minute.Īnother source of Google data is your personal profile, held in your Google Account. That includes the number of email exchanges you've had in Gmail, number of files in Drive, and how many photos Google stores for you, but the key information is what Google dubs "activity data", such as your location or searches or browsing history. Building the Takeout archive can take a few days to create, with Google sending you a link to download when it's ready.ĭashboard was designed with data management in mind, offering a snapshot of the data Google collects about you as you use its services. ![]() Takeout was created to let users grab their data from Google and shift it to another service, beginning with photos and contacts but since expanding to Android device settings, Chrome bookmarks, Google Fit activity data, and even your Cloud Print history. There are two ways to get a copy of all the data Google collects on you: Takeout and Dashboard. It's the cost of getting so many services without spending any money, but there are ways to limit what Google collects about you. Want to stop Google from knowing anything about you? That’s nigh-on impossible: the advertising giant collects data every time you search the web, every time you visit a website, every time you use your Android phone – you name it, Google is using it to collect data about you. But you can wrestle back some level of control. Google tracks you on and off the web in a myriad of ways – that's no surprise. ![]() He has over 22 years of experience in the field of Business Process Re-Engineering (BPR), Technical Training and Development, Quality Management, Information & Communications Technology (ICT), ERP Implementation, IT Project Management, Systems Analysis & Design, Information Management, Network & Communication Infrastructure Setup, and Systems Implementation.

As a bonus, it works without your opponent having to put three cards in their graveyard first. Similar to Ravenous Trap, Tormod’s Crypt provides a one-shot effect that hits the entire graveyard. Generally you’re safer from those things that removal for permanents, but a savvy opponent can sequence their discard spell to prevent you from casting it in response. Ravenous Trap is vulnerable to discard and counterspells, which makes it a bit sketchy at times to rely on it. Being able to respond to triggers from Bloodghast, Narcomoeba, and Arclight Phoenix-or removing the cards from your opponent’s graveyard so they can’t delve for Hogaak-means Ravenous Trap when timed correctly can be a beating. Phoenix, Dredge, and Hogaak all need to put at least three cards in the graveyard on most turns of the game if they’re doing much of anything. The strength of Ravenous Trap is that is hard to play around even when you know your opponent has it. The downside is that you have to spend valuable early-game mana to get this on the table while it’s still relevant. With Bridge from Below hitting the banned list and Neoform rising in popularity, expect to see more copies of this one floating around.ĭon’t forget: Cage is good against the Collected Company and Chord of Calling decks, which provides some added utility. Grafdigger’s Cage is another piece of hate that plays double duty! Cage has seen less play lately, in favor of cards like Leyline of the Void given the speed of Hogaak. More often than not, Surgical Extraction backed up with a clock will get the job done. If you are playing a deck that can effectively get a key combo piece into the graveyard via something like a discard or counterspell, following up with Surgical can end the game-for example, against Ad Nauseam. Indeed, Surgical Extraction has taken a back seat to the effects the exile the entire graveyard.īut Surgical plays well against some combo decks as well as the graveyard decks, making it a versatile sideboard choice. It has lost some effectiveness lately because the graveyard decks rely on engines more than they do individual cards. Our first non-permanent piece of hate, Surgical Extraction is at its best when your opponent needs a specific card to function. Rest in Peace does suffer all of the same enchantment-related downsides as Leyline of the Void however, and it won’t surprise anyone. Cards like Thoughtseize and Spell Pierce work well. Look to pair Rest in Peace with one-mana disruption to minimize the costs associated. ![]() Two mana can be a steep cost given the speed of decks like Dredge, Hogaak, and Phoenix but if these decks take some time to set up, Rest in Peace can be devastating. ![]() The usefulness of Rest in Peace is restricted by its color, but the power level is still quite high assuming that it comes down quickly. Graveyard pilots know Leyline is coming, and they typically play four to six Disenchant-type effects. Plus, as an enchantment, it will die to almost all the anti-hate answers your opponent brings in. If you don’t start the game with Leyline in hand to play for free, the 2BB mana cost can be tough to pay at all, and usually comes way too late. Honestly with a resume like that, the choice to max out on Leyline looks sensible. Leyline checks a lot of boxes: free, powerful, and wins the game if it hangs around. When decks that abuse the graveyard become popular, this is the first place people look. As I mentioned before, Leyline of the Void is the gold standard anti-graveyard card in Modern. |
