Neuroscience Calisthenics: Hijack your Body Clock

We all aspire to live a long and healthy life and know that staying active is critical to achieving this goal. Usually, we think that we physically peak at around the age of 20. That is what most physical trainers, athletes but mainly the media are going to tell you and they are not wrong. It is just what they are used to seeing. Most gymnasts or Olympic athletes that we see usually reach their prime in their late teens or early twenties. Taking Usain Bolt as an example; he had been earning gold medals in several world championships ever since he was 15 but it was in the 2008 Beijing Olympics that he lit up the world stage when he broke the world record for the 100-meter sprint. Since then he has progressed on to break his own record and earn consecutive gold medals in the 2012 and 2016 Olympics, up until he was 30, after which he retired.

The Circassian Genocide

The Circassian Genocide

Circassia was a small independent nation on the northeastern shore of the Black Sea. For no reason other than ethnic hatred, over the course of hundreds of raids the Russians drove the Circassians from their homeland and deported them to the Ottoman Empire. At least 600,000 people lost their lives to massacre, starvation, and the elements while hundreds of thousands more were forced to leave their homeland. By 1864, three-fourths of the population was annihilated, and the Circassians had become one of the first stateless peoples in modern history. Using rare archival materials, Walter Richmond chronicles the history of the war, describes in detail the final genocidal campaign, and follows the Circassians in diaspora through five generations as they struggle to survive and return home. He places the periods of acute genocide, 1821–1822 and 1863–1864, in the larger context of centuries of tension between the two nations and updates the story to the present day as the Circassian community works to gain international recognition of the genocide as the region prepares for the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi, the site of the Russians’ final victory.
