Hello Internet - and welcome back to the most inquisitive channel on YouTube - Life's
Biggest Questions - the place where we throw our inhibitions in a ring and let them duke
it out in all their glory.
As always - I'll be your vocal contender, Jack Finch - as we perplexingly purse our
lips, watch a fly buzz out of our wallet and ask the question - How Much Money Did Logan
Paul and KSI Make During The Fight?
Unless you live beneath a metaphorical rock, then you all know by now that on Saturday
25th of August, at the Manchester MEN Arena, two men stepped into a ring - and neither
were a victor.
Whether you think it rigged - a publicity stunt - or a strange incarnation of the two,
the fact of the matter is that the fight was declared a draw - with a two-thirds judges
majority being undecided on the technical outcome.
Dubbed the biggest fight in internet history - which, unashamedly, is actually true - this
particular money fight was only the first of two - with the second bout rumoured to
be taking place next year in the United States - but how much did these pair of young entrepreneurs
actually make in this colossal conflict?
If you're familiar with White Collar Boxing, you'll usually know that in essence - it's
a vanity fight.
Two competitors pay to get into the ring together, and they sell tickets to their friends and
family to watch them brawl - and everyone, generally, has a great night.
Well - the former isn't the same if you're KSI, Deji, or the Paul Brothers - because
this event was something that would set most professional boxers reeling.
The split their purse 50/50 - whichever way it went, both camps were set to make one hell
of a buck.
But - although neither party have revealed details about how much money was in it for
them - it's incredibly likely that both of them have walked away with millions after
the fight.
We do know one thing - fans wanting to watch the live stream had to pay 7.50 to tune into
the fight - with a staggering 800'000 people doing so across the globe.
We're no mathematicians - but that sounds like 6 million British pounds to us.
On top of that - KSI was stated to be taking 100% of the Manchester ticket sales - while
Logan will be taking all of the profits from their second bout in the United States.
It's been bounced around by several pundits and professionals that both camps could be
walking away with 30 to 40 million British pounds each.
We won't even take into account the insane amount of views that both KSI and Logan paul
have garnered during the run up to the fight - with the hype train at its terminal velocity,
SocialBlade indicates that either fighter has racked up anywhere between 10k to 60k
per video in the last two months alone.
Also - pile on top of that the merch sales, I know one particular fan at the LBQ office
who's sporting a fresh new KSI t-shirt - and those things aren't cheap.
Both KSI and the Paul Brothers were incredibly vocal about the legality surrounding their
fight - and the lengths that their teams would go to prevent people from illegally viewing
their Manchester based bout.
But as we know - this is the internet, and you can't put the toothpaste back in the
tube - people are gonna pirate it, guys.
An estimated "millions" of people tuned in to Twitch hijacks of the site, making off
with even more revenue for the fight's YouTube pay-per-view stream, so who knows how much
more they potentially could have made.
I guess we won't know until we hear it from the horse's mouth - but there's one thing
we do know, they made a shed tonne of money, either way.
Well - do you think it's deserved, folks?
Do you emplore the pair for their shrewd marketing techniques?
Is it the biggest cash-grab of the century?
Speak your mind in the comment box down below.
If you're a fan of this video - give it a great big thumbs up - or a thumbs down,
respectively, I won't hold it against you.
If you'd like to continue your questioning binge, feel free to hit that playlist floating
shortly above.
As per usual, I've been your host Jack Finch - you've been watching Life's Biggest
Questions - and until next time, take it easy.

Can this plant be saved? - Duration: 9:23.
My name is Jeb and I grew some bok choy in buckets recently.
Day 41
The buckets were too small so I
Ran into some problems
So I went out and I built some bigger buckets
Good thing I got the
New Air EC111w evaporative cooler to help me out
One of the great things is it's got a remote
And that good because I'm lazy
Plus it has a place to store the remote
Which is good because I'm forgetful
I like this spinny fan thing
It allows you to add turbulence without needing to oscillate back and forth
It's great for tight spaces
Here you can see after just a couple minutes
It's cooling down the plants and adding humidity
I'm going to show you how I built these buckets
To start out I'm going to see how much water goes in here
I just want a couple inches deep
This is the 5 gallon (19 liter) mark
Looks good to me
I'm trying to figure out where the net cup is going to dip down to
These holes are for a support rod
This is my Counter-Strike (video game) version of
Proper sanitation
Let's clean this bleach up properly
Something's missing
It's so
Shiny
Got to hold the light up somehow
Don't forget to clean up the mess
I'm going to send some plastic bits to the landfill
I'm so sorry
Footage from winter garden
I haven't been mixing my dry ingredients into the water very thoroughly
This time I'm going to dump it right under the plant
It's probably a bad idea
Oops!
I'm using the same lights as I did in the last grow
I'll put a link to that video in the description too
Day 4
The seeds are up already
And the plants are looking great
Day 7
The glare off this (aluminum) foil is
Really uncomfortable
I can't decide which one these to pull out yet
Day 15 - It looks like my shenanigans with dumping fertilizer right under the plants
Has angered nature
I'm going to try just reaching in and swooshing the water around
See if that helps
I'm going to raise the lights a little too
It should help reduce transpiration and
Give these plants some relief from the fertilizer burn
Day 21
The damaged leaves will never recover but
The new growth looks better
Kinda
This evaporative cooler is working great though
Check out the description for details on it
Day 29
I'd really like to see these plants recover now but
Day 36
They've had a hard start
Might have to let them go
Leave me a comment about what you would do
Would you try to let them grow or
Start over from scratch?

The little risks you can take to increase your luck | Tina Seelig - Duration: 11:40.
I've spent nearly two decades
observing what makes people luckier than others
and trying to help people increase their luck.
You see, I teach entrepreneurship,
and we all know that most new ventures fail,
and innovators and entrepreneurs need all the luck they can get.
So what is luck?
Luck is defined as success or failure apparently caused by chance.
Apparently.
That's the operative word.
It looks like it's chance
because we rarely see all the levers that come into play to make people lucky.
But I've realized, by watching so long,
that luck is rarely a lightning strike,
isolated and dramatic.
It's much more like the wind,
blowing constantly.
Sometimes it's calm,
and sometimes it blows in gusts,
and sometimes it comes from directions that you didn't even imagine.
So how do you catch the winds of luck?
It's easy, but it's not obvious.
So I'm going to share three things with you
that you can do to build a sail to capture the winds of luck.
The first thing you want to do
is to change your relationship with yourself.
Be willing to take small risks that get you out of your comfort zone.
Now, when we're children, we do this all the time.
We have to do this if we're going to learn how to walk or talk
or ride a bike
or even quantum mechanics. Right?
We need to go from someone one week who doesn't ride a bike
to, next week, someone who does.
And this requires us to get out of our comfort zone
and take some risks.
The problem is, as we get older,
we rarely do this.
We sort of lock down the sense of who we are
and don't stretch anymore.
Now, with my students,
I spend a lot of time giving them encouragement
to get out of their comfort zone and take some risks.
How do I do this?
Well, I start out by having them fill out a risk-o-meter.
Now, it's basically a fun thing we developed in our class
where they map out what risks they're willing to take.
And it becomes clear very quickly to them
that risk-taking is not binary.
There are intellectual risks and physical risks and financial risks
and emotional risks and social risks and ethical risks and political risks.
And once they do this, they compare their risk profiles with others,
and they quickly realize that they're all really different.
I then encourage them to stretch,
to take some risks that get them out of their comfort zone.
For example, I might ask them to do an intellectual risk
and try to tackle a problem they haven't tried before;
or a social risk, talking to someone sitting next to them on the train;
or an emotional risk,
maybe telling someone they really care about how they feel.
I do this myself all the time.
About a dozen years ago, I was on an airplane,
early, early morning flight on my way to Ecuador.
And normally, I would just put on my headphones
and go to sleep, wake up, do some work,
but I decided to take a little risk,
and I started a conversation with the man sitting next to me.
I introduced myself, and I learned that he was a publisher.
Interesting.
We ended up having a fascinating conversation.
I learned all about the future of the publishing industry.
So about three quarters of the way through the flight,
I decided to take another risk,
and I opened up my laptop and I shared with him a book proposal
I put together for something I was doing in my class.
And he was very polite, he read it,
and he said, "You know what, Tina, this isn't right for us,
but thank you so much for sharing."
It's OK. That risk didn't work out.
I shut my laptop.
At the end of the flight, we exchanged contact information.
A couple of months later, I reached out to him,
and I said, "Mark, would you like to come to my class?
I'm doing a project on reinventing the book,
the future of publishing."
And he said, "Great. I'd love to come."
So he came to my class. We had a great experience.
A few months later, I wrote to him again.
This time, I sent him a bunch of video clips
from another project my students had done.
He was so intrigued
by one of the projects the students had done,
he thought there might be a book in it,
and he wanted to meet those students.
I have to tell you, I was a little bit hurt.
(Laughter)
I mean, he wanted to do a book with my students and not with me,
but OK, it's all right.
So I invited him to come down, and he and his colleagues came to Stanford
and met with the students, and afterwards, we had lunch together.
And one of his editors said to me,
"Hey, have you ever considered writing a book?"
I said, "Funny you should ask."
And I pulled out the exact same proposal
that I had showed his boss a year earlier.
Within two weeks, I had a contract,
and within two years, the book had sold over a million copies around the world.
(Applause)
Now, you might say,
"Oh, you're so lucky."
But of course I was lucky,
but that luck resulted from a series of small risks I took,
starting with saying hello.
And anyone can do this,
no matter where you are in your life,
no matter where you are in the world --
even if you think you're the most unlucky person,
you can do this by taking little risks that get you out of your comfort zone.
You start building a sail to capture luck.
The second thing you want to do
is to change your relationship with other people.
You need to understand that everyone who helps you on your journey
is playing a huge role in getting you to your goals.
And if you don't show appreciation,
not only are you not closing the loop,
but you're missing an opportunity.
When someone does something for you,
they're taking that time
that they could be spending on themselves or someone else,
and you need to acknowledge what they're doing.
Now, I run three fellowship programs at Stanford,
and they are very competitive to get into,
and when I send out the letters to those students who don't get in,
I always know there are going to be people who are disappointed.
Some of the people who are disappointed send me notes, complaining.
Some of them send notes
saying what could I do to make myself more successful next time around?
And every once in a while,
someone sends me a note thanking me for the opportunity.
This happened about seven years ago.
A young man named Brian sent me a beautiful note saying,
"I know I've been rejected from this program twice,
but I want to thank you for the opportunity.
I learned so much through the process of applying."
I was so taken by the graciousness of his message
that I invited him to come and meet me.
And we spent some time chatting and cooked up an idea
for an independent study project together.
He was on the football team at Stanford,
and he decided to do a project on looking at leadership in that context.
We got to know each other incredibly well through that quarter,
and he took the project that he started working on
in the independent study
and turned it, ultimately, into a company called Play for Tomorrow,
where he teaches kids from disadvantaged backgrounds
how to, essentially, craft the lives they dream to live.
Now, the important thing about this story
is that we both ended up catching the winds of luck
as a result of his thank-you note.
But it was the winds that we didn't expect in the first place.
Over the course of the last couple of years,
I've come up with some tactics for my own life
to help me really foster appreciation.
My favorite is that at the end of every single day,
I look at my calendar and I review all the people I met with,
and I send thank-you notes to every single person.
It only takes a few minutes,
but at the end of every day,
I feel incredibly grateful and appreciative,
and I promise you it has increased my luck.
So first, you need to take some risks and get out of your comfort zone.
Second, you need to show appreciation.
And third, you want to change your relationship with ideas.
Most people look at new ideas that come there way and they judge them.
"That's a great idea" or "That's a terrible idea."
But it's actually much more nuanced.
Ideas are neither good or bad.
And in fact, the seeds of terrible ideas are often something truly remarkable.
One of my favorite exercises in my classes on creativity
is to help students foster an attitude of looking at terrible ideas
through the lens of possibilities.
So I give them a challenge:
to create an idea for a brand new restaurant.
They have to come up with the best ideas for a new restaurant
and the worst ideas for a new restaurant.
So the best ideas are things like a restaurant on a mountaintop
with a beautiful sunset,
or a restaurant on a boat with a gorgeous view.
And the terrible ideas are things like a restaurant in a garbage dump,
or a restaurant with terrible service that's really dirty,
or a restaurant that serves cockroach sushi.
(Laughter)
So they hand all the ideas to me,
I read the great ideas out loud,
and then I rip them up and throw them away.
I then take the horrible ideas and redistribute them.
Each team now has an idea that another team thought was horrible,
and their challenge is to turn it into something brilliant.
Here's what happens.
Within about 10 seconds, someone says, "This is a fabulous idea."
And they have about three minutes before they pitch the idea to the class.
So the restaurant in the garbage dump? What does that turn into?
Well, they collect all the extra food from Michelin star restaurants
that was going to get thrown out,
and they have another restaurant at a much lower price,
with all the leftovers.
Pretty cool?
Or the restaurant that's dirty with terrible service?
Well, that turns into a restaurant that's a training ground
for future restauranteurs to figure out how to avoid all the pitfalls.
And the restaurant with cockroach sushi?
It turns into a sushi bar
with all sorts of really interesting and exotic ingredients.
If you look around at the companies,
the ventures that are really innovative around you,
the ones that we now take for granted that have changed our life,
well, you know what?
They all started out as crazy ideas.
They started ideas that when they pitched to other people,
most people said, "That's crazy, it will never work."
So, yes, sometimes people were born into terrible circumstances,
and sometimes, luck is a lightning bolt
that hits us with something wonderful or something terrible.
But the winds of luck are always there,
and if you're willing to take some risks,
if you're willing to really go out and show appreciation
and willing to really look at ideas, even if they're crazy,
through the lens of possibilities,
you can build a bigger and bigger sail to catch the winds of luck.
Thank you.
(Applause)

The Untold Truth Of Chobani - Duration: 5:05.
When you think of innovative companies that raked in billions of dollars, you probably
think of Google or Facebook.
But you don't have to revolutionize the internet in order to join the ranks of the business
elite — you can build an empire making a high quality cup of yogurt and selling it
for a reasonable price.
That's what Chobani founder Hamdi Ulukaya did, and this yogurt company with humble origins
has been making headlines ever since.
So how did they rise to the cream at the top?
Here's what you need to know about Chobani.
Humble beginnings
The American dream is alive and well for Hamdi Ulukaya, who was born into a Kurdish sheepherding
family in eastern Turkey.
Ulukaya emigrated to the United States when he was 22, with no friends and no competency
in English.
Over a period of ten years, he finished his education, and in 2005 he took out a loan
to purchase a defunct yogurt factory in New Berlin, New York.
Then, with a small group of employees, he built up the business of Chobani, one case
of yogurt at a time.
Rural revival
The dairy factory that Ulukaya would eventually buy was originally operated by Kraft Foods
with a skeleton crew of 55 employees.
Factories decommissioning is not an uncommon event in the rust belt, which suffered near-economic
collapse as industry declined in the region.
So Chobani's success has been a boon to the small town of New Berlin, providing sustainable
jobs both inside and outside of the factory.
Additionally, the real estate market has improved because of people moving into the region for
work.
And in Twin Falls, Idaho, Chobani's second factory has breathed new life into the economy
as well.
They hire refugees
Ulukaya has often expressed his support for refugees, which is not surprising given the
persecution he faced in his native Turkey for being Kurdish.
He told WWLP,
"I left Turkey because I was Kurdish and was very serious about Kurdish rights.
[...] Their human rights were violated, their villages were bombed."
But he's not just empathetic of their plight, he also actively hires refugees at his factories,
citing them as model employees.
"The minute they get a job, that's the minute they stop being a refugee."
Ulukaya has also donated significant money to refugee causes, and pledges to eventually
give away most of what he's earned to help refugees in need.
LGBT rights
Chobani has a pretty solid record on LGBT rights.
For one, they spoke out against Russia's anti-gay laws during the 2014 winter Olympics in Sochi,
joining co-sponsors DeVry and and AT&T in their support of equality.
They also showed their support on Twitter, incorporating gay pride colors into an advertisement.
Additionally, they featured a lesbian couple in one of their advertisements as part of
their Love This Life campaign.
And they're aware that they're putting their money where their proverbial mouth is.
Peter McGuinness, Chobani's chief marketing and brand officer, told Ad Age:
"We've been an inclusive brand from the beginning and equal rights has been fundamental and
foundational for this brand.
The founding mission of Chobani was better food for more people.
Good food shouldn't be a privilege, it should be a right, and we want to make it available
to all."
That's some solid support.
McDonald's test
Chobani might not be an official partner of McDonald's, but they've worked together before.
In 2016, McDonald's started using Chobani's fat-free vanilla yogurt in all of their yogurt-based
dishes.
That change also meant that their fruit and yogurt parfait and McCafe smoothies would
feature nonfat yogurt instead of the low-fat yogurt they were previously using.
McDonald's does have an established partnership with Yoplait, who supplies them with the yogurt
they use in their kid's meals.
Perhaps in the future there's room for more than one yogurt company at the Golden Arches,
but for now, it looks like the partnership didn't work out.
McDonald's no longer lists Chobani as an ingredient in their smoothies or parfaits.
They turned Pepsi down
One company Chobani will likely not be working with anytime soon is Pepsi, despite the beverage
giant's offer to become a large investor in the company.
While Chobani was interested in selling some of their company, they weren't looking to
sell a majority stake, which is what PepsiCo was after.
For Chobani, a move like that would mean that they'd have to relinquish their independence,
something they consider an important asset.
Pepsi wasn't the only beverage company interested in investing in Chobani.
Coca-Cola was in talks with them as well.
However, Coca-Cola walked away, stating that Chobani was not the "right fit" for their
portfolio.
Personal threats
Hamdi Ulukaya employs thousands of people at his two Chobani factories, both citizens
and refugees.
But his outspoken verbal and financial support of refugees has drawn considerable ire from
opponents.
"One publication had a headline that said American yogurt tycoon vows to choke the U.S.
with Muslims."
These opponents also took to social media to level racist insults at Ulukaya and his
company, and even threaten the life of the mayor of Twin Falls, Idaho.
The New York Times attributes the source for much of this harassment to be Breitbart, a
right-wing media outlet that allegedly published misleading stories about Chobani.
They sued Infowars
Breitbart isn't the only outlet that's critical of Ulukaya and his company.
Far-right commentator and conspiracy theorist Alex Jones at Infowars has also made plenty
of comments about Chobani, including one particularly inflammatory headline.
It was this material that prompted Chobani to take legal action against Jones, filing
a defamation lawsuit that demanded the content be removed, and that more than $10,000 in
damages be paid.
According to the lawsuit, Chobani felt
"[The article] caused and continue[s] to cause harm to Idaho residents, including Chobani
employees, their families and other members of the Twin Falls community."
Both Jones and Chobani settled the lawsuit, and Jones issued an apology and a retraction.

Rappers We Lost in 2018 - Duration: 5:49.
While it's easy to feel personally connected to these artists through their tunes, it's
always difficult to believe when some of the most legendary or promising musicians pass
on.
Unfortunately, 2018 has already seen the untimely deaths of a long list of influential rappers.
Although these stars are no longer with us, their art, and their performances are forever
etched into our memories.
Here are the rappers we lost in 2018.
XXXTentacion
Controversial Florida rapper Jahseh "XXXTentacion" Onfroy first found fame with the track "Look
At Me."
The song was initially a sleeper hit upon its release to SoundCloud in 2015, but when
it was re-released in early 2017, it received mainstream attention.
But Onfroy's rise, further accelerated by multiple Billboard-charting hits and his Number
1 album Question Mark, wasn't without drama.
By early 2018, the rapper was embroiled in legal issues tied to his ex-girlfriend, including
charges of domestic battery by strangulation, false imprisonment, aggravated battery of
a pregnant woman, and witness tampering, according to Pitchfork.
He maintained his innocence, but never saw his day in court.
Onfroy was gunned down at a motorcycle shop in Florida on June 18th, 2018.
According to TMZ, the 20-year-old was shot in the neck and appeared to die instantly
in what law enforcement said was possibly a robbery gone wrong.
"If I'm gonna die or ever be a sacrifice, I wanna make sure that my life made at least
5 million kids happy."
Louis BadAzz
Twenty-nine-year-old Louis Robinson Junior, a.k.a., Louis BadAzz, received his first taste
of fame with his 2015 song "Let Me Thru Dis B," which amassed more than 3 million views
on YouTube.
But sadly, tragedy would strike just three years later.
Robinson was shot in broad daylight in Baton Rouge, Louisiana on May 2nd, 2018.
He was rushed to a nearby hospital, but died about an hour later, according to an ABC News
affiliate.
His mother, Elizabeth Robinson, pleaded for an end to gun violence, telling The Advocate,
"It's just got to stop.
I don't want anybody to go retaliate or somebody else get killed.…It's just not worth it."
Smoke Dawg
"My name's Smoke Dawg, I'm from Regent Park, and I make music to tell my story from where
I'm from."
Canadian rapper Jahvante Smart, better known as Smoke Dawg, broke out with 2015's "Trap
House."
But his exposure increased in 2017, when he toured alongside Drake on the Boy Meets World
Tour.
Unfortunately, Smoke Dawg's ascension to stardom was cut short when he was killed in a violent
triple shooting outside a Toronto nightclub on June 30th, 2018.
Following the news of Smart's death, Drake posted of his friend: "I wish peace would
wash over our city.
So much talent and so many stories we never get to see play out.
Rest up Smoke."
Craig Mack
A new Jersey born rapper, Craig Mack's legacy will always be connected to the 1994 hit "Flava
In lYa Ear" which put Sean "Diddy" Combs' iconic Bad Boy label on the map.
"Ari told me rap was in trouble.
I got a hit on the cell.
So I came back to the rescue and now I'm here."
The track peaked at Number 9 on the Billboard Hot 100 and earned platinum certification.
But by 1995, Mack and his debut album, Project: Funk da World, were eclipsed by his labelmate,
The Notorious B.I.G., whose critically-acclaimed Ready to Die was released just a week before
Mack's project.
Mack was subsequently dropped from Bad Boy, releasing his second album, Operation: Get
Down, in 1997 to little fanfare.
He eventually left the industry, and later left his home in New York to join a "hyper-conservative
religious" community in South Carolina, where he spent the remaining years of his life.
According to Newsweek, Mack passed away from congestive heart failure on March 12th, 2018,
at 46 years old.
Lovebug Starski
The hip hop community was rocked by the sudden death of Kevin Smith, the legendary rapper
and DJ known as Lovebug Starski, on February 8th, 2018.
He was just 57 years old when he passed away at his home in Las Vegas from a heart attack,
according to HipHopDX.
"The thing that would always follow this man wherever he goes is, nobody rocks the fever
like Lovebug Starski."
Starski was widely credited with coining the phrase "hip hop" when the genre was still
in its infancy, using it in his rhymes throughout the '70s and '80s.
He went on to release multiple records in the '80s, including "Amityville," "Do the
Right Thing," and "You've Gotta Believe," but Starski was ultimately overshadowed by
other artists, and he arguably never got the recognition he deserved.
Thankfully, he was immortalized on The Notorious B.I.G.'s classic '94 hit, "Juicy," in which
Biggie raps:
"Who ever thought that hip-hop would take it this far?
Peace to Ron G, Brucie B, Kid Capri, Funkmaster Flex, Lovebug Starski."
Indeed.
Rest in peace, Lovebug.
Fredo Santana
It was no secret that Chicago drill rapper Derrick "Fredo Santana" Coleman, the older
cousin of rapper Chief Keef, battled drugs for years.
Fellow rapper Vic Mensa posted on Instagram,
"He spoke about his drug use and trying to escape the PTSD he had from growing up in
the hood, surrounded by violence.
I call it post traumatic streets disorder."
"But you know that's a good thing, you know?
Like I get to be myself, you feel me?
I ain't gotta be in the streets all day every day like I used to be."
By October 2017, Santana's lifestyle reportedly landed him in a hospital for liver and kidney
failure.
According to XXL, some speculated his health problems were tied to his alleged habit of
drinking "lean", a mixture of prescription cough syrup and soda that can result in liver
failure or seizures after prolonged use.
Sadly, Santana never made a full recovery.
According to TMZ, the 27-year-old was found dead in his home following a "fatal seizure"
on January 19th, 2018.

Crazed Trump Spent His Weekend "Calling People And Screaming" Report Says - Duration: 2:43.
According to a report by Vanity Fair's Gabriel Sherman, someone who has had some pretty spot
on reporting about what's happening in the White House, he's got some excellent sources
in there.
But according to a recent report from him, Donald Trump spent this past weekend screaming
at people over the phone.
Now that is according to one of Sherman's sources who is a former White House official.
Said that Donald Trump was very subdued in public, he was still upset that nobody cared
about his West Virginia rally earlier in the week.
Didn't mention much about Manafort or Cohen in public, but then when he got back to the
White House this past weekend, everything was kind of quiet.
The source claims that "Trump was just picking up the phone, calling people and screaming."
That was the exact quote.
So we don't know exactly if he was calling people that involved in any of this or if
he was just calling random people.
I mean, hell we know he likes to pick up the phone and just call other world leaders, all
times of day, no matter what time it is in their time zone.
So we have no idea who this madman may have been calling and screaming at because his
entire world is falling apart.
But this isn't about just Donald Trump just randomly screaming at people over the phone.
This is about the fact that he is obviously terrified about what's happening to his administration
and to his legacy.
He understands that the Manafort verdict, eight counts guilty, that that's going to
hurt him.
Even if it had nothing to do with him in the trial.
Cohen on the other hand, implicated him in a felony, two felonies actually.
Which technically then implicates him in an unspoken third felony of failure to disclose.
So that's probably the one he's a little bit more pissed off about.
And according to Sherman as well, he's still talking about possibly pardoning Manafort,
which White House counselor Don McGhan had to go in and tell him why that's such a horrible
idea.
Donald trump has no way out at this point.
All he can do is scream and bark in the dark, knowing that nobody is coming to save him.
He not only hitched his wagon to some of the most corrupt people in this country, he also
happened to hire the most incompetent lawyers ever to pass the bar in the United States.
So he has no help, he no hope, he doesn't know what to do.
So he's doing what he always does.
Throwing a major temper tantrum when things don't go his way.
Not gonna work this time.

The Rise and Fall of the Bone-Crushing Dogs - Duration: 9:38.
Thanks to WIX for supporting PBS Digital Studios
In its day, it was quite literally top dog.
By some estimates, it could grow as big as a brown bear.
And with its powerful jaws and stout teeth, it was not only a skilled hunter -- it could
also crack open the bones of its prey.
It's known today as Epicyon, and it stalked North America from sixteen million to seven
million years ago, during the Miocene epoch.
The largest of these creatures were the most massive dogs that ever lived.
But they weren't like the dogs that we know today.
Epicyon hailed from a lineage known as the Borophaginae, often known by their more common
-- and way more metal -- nickname, the "bone-crushing dogs."
A huge and diverse subfamily of dogs, the bone-crushers patrolled North America for
more than thirty million years, before they disappeared in the not-too-distant past.
So what happened to the biggest dogs that ever lived?
Part of what happened to them was … dogs as we know them.
Our dogs.
And another thing that happened to them?
Cats.
The only important thing that Epicyon has in common with your golden retriever
or whatever is that they're both canids.
Dogs, wolves, foxes, and all their kin belong to the family Canidae.
Today there are 34 species of canids, from the leggy maned wolf to the big-eared fennec
fox.
Now, some experts think the earliest canid was a small, weasel-like creature called Prohesperocyon,
which first appeared about 36 million years ago in southern Texas.
Not everyone's convinced that Prohesperocyon was a canid, though.
It may have been part of a different group of mammals, called the Miacidae, which shares
a common ancestor with modern carnivores.
Either way, every canid — from the giant bone-crushers to the pup that's probably
watching this with you right now — all share some key traits.
They all eat meat, though there are some that eat plants and invertebrates once in a while.
And other distinguishing trait can be found in their ears.
Canids have hollow bony structures toward the back of their skulls called auditory bullae
that protect the delicate bones of the middle ear.
Lots of other mammals have them too.
But in canids, they're especially big, and it's thought that these extra large spaces
help dogs and wolves hear low-frequency sounds.
Now, tens of millions of years ago, some ancestral canid, whether it was Prohesperocyon or someone
else, was the predecessor to the first of the three great subfamilies of canids.
And only one of these subfamilies survives today.
The earliest group was the Hesperocyoninae.
These were small, nimble carnivores that were adapted to the warm, forested world of the
Late Eocene.
And the founding member of this group was Hesperocyon, which appears in the fossil record
around 37 million years ago in the great plains of North America.
Who's the cutest little ancestral dog?
Aren't you?
Yes you are!
It probably ate smaller mammals, and some
species may have climbed trees.
Because, just like cats, they had fully retractable claws, a trait that canids eventually lost.
As the Eocene transitioned to the Oligocene, the climate cooled.
The woodlands of North America started to gave way to grasslands.
And large herbivores moved into this new environment, evolving traits that helped them eat grass
and run long distances.
And as the prey species grew, some of the hesperocyonines did as well.
In short order, this splinter group left the forests and began hunting the new prey on
the new grasslands.
For example, one of Hesperocyon's descendants was a little critter called Archaeocyon.
It appears in the fossil record around 30 million years ago and may be the earliest
member of the second great subfamily, the Borophaginae, the bone-crushers.
Unlike its ancestors, Archaeocyon had shorter jaws and thicker premolars.
But, it wasn't quite ready to actually crush bone.
Instead, Archaeocyon and most of the early borophagines were small, opportunistic omnivores,
kinda like raccoons.
It wasn't until the mid-Miocene that new species appeared that ate meat almost exclusively
and were big enough to start competing with the largest of that first wave of dogs, the
The hesperocyonines.
And that's where mighty Epicyon comes in.
One species in this genus—Epicyon haydeni—was the biggest of the big, thought to be the
largest canid of all time.
According to one estimate, Epicyon could've tipped the scales at 170 kilograms, making
it more than twice as massive as the heaviest grey wolf on record.
But we talked to an expert in bone-crushers -- Dr. Xiaoming Wang at the Natural History
Museum of Los Angeles County.
And he said that 170 kilos was probably a low estimate and that the biggest Epicyons
might've been "substantially larger."
In any case, all the Epicyon species looked very different from the dogs and wolves we
know today.
In addition to their distinctive domed foreheads, they had wide palates and massive cheek teeth.
These features allowed them to perform the feat that would eventually give them their
full-metal nickname: They could crunch through solid bone.
They did this to get to the nutritious, calorie-dense marrow of the bone.
And we know this because, in most of the big bone-crushers, their cheek teeth show distinctive
marks -- the same marks that modern hyenas get by gnawing on bones.
And some samples of fossilized poop from Epicyon have even been found to contain bits of bone.
Now, for years, scientists thought that these were signs that borophagines were scavengers.
But the more recent thinking is that at least some bone-crushers actively hunted prey that
were as large -- or even larger -- than they were.
Maybe even in packs.
After all, large modern predators like wolves tend to do the same thing.
So there's no reason to think the borophagines acted differently.
And because they were powerful, but not built for speed, many experts think that bone-crushers
were probably what are known as pounce-pursuit predators.
Like coyotes, they probably chased their prey for short distances, and then wrestled them
to the ground.
But, whatever they were doing back then, they were doing something right.
Because, at the peak of their success, six to twelve million years ago, there were about
fifteen different species of bone-crushing dogs.
In addition to the giant Epicyon, for instance, there was Cynarctus, about the size of a coyote
and just as much of an opportunist.
Judging by its teeth, most of its diet consisted of insects and plants.
But, by contrast, there was also a lineage within the genus Aelurodon that became increasingly
carnivorous over time.
As the Miocene epoch was drawing to a close, bone-crushing dogs roamed North America from
Maryland to California and from Montana to Mexico.
Then their fortunes took a downward turn.
One of the culprits in their decline was the third and final subfamily of canids: The Caninae,
the only group of dogs that would be left standing.
Canines first appear a little over 30 million years ago.
And there's a debate over whether they arose from small Hesperocyonines or from small bone-crushers.
It's just another of the many fascinating things that paleontologists are still fighting
about.
But we do know that one of the first canines on record was Leptocyon.
Which, again, isn't it super cute?
I just want to...boop!
It made its debut in the early Oligocene and was about the size of a fox.
Like other early canines, it had a long snout with thinner teeth.
So it couldn't bring down big game like horses or camels, but it was adept at catching
small, fast prey.
But the most noteworthy thing about these new, early canines was their legs.
While Epicyon and other bone-crushers were getting bigger and heavier, canines slowly
developed into cross-country marathon runners.
The trend started way back with Hesperocyon, which had pretty long legs.
But by the time Leptocyon showed up, they were even longer, allowing it to make longer
strides.
And by the late Miocene, yet another streamlining trait appeared: the reduction of the "big
toe" on each foot.
Through natural selection, this fifth toe shrank away, becoming little more than a tiny
nub in some species and disappearing altogether in others.
These shrinking toes helped make canines' feet and legs lighter.
And that, combined with their longer stride, allowed them to adopt a totally different
hunting strategy.
Instead of pouncing on their prey like bone crushers did, canines could run their victims
down for hours, until they dropped from exhaustion.
If you've ever seen a wolf hunt, you know this is the method they still use today.
And this strategy might also explain why canines are the only dogs that still exist: Because
they were best equipped to go up against the newest and fiercest competitors in North America.
You could say they're dogs' oldest foes: cats.
And I make this face when I say cats because i'm not 100% a cat person
Cats first evolved in Eurasia some 33 million years ago.
But about 14 million years later, they migrated across the Bering Land Bridge and quickly
spread south.
And some experts think it was competition with cats that ultimately did in the bone-crushing
dogs.
Large new cat species, like Pseudaelurus, were ambush predators that probably competed
with the bone-crushers for the same prey.
And simply put, the cats were just better at it: More efficient, with retractable claws,
they had a much easier time wrangling their prey.
So while the canines went on with their own set of prey and long-distance hunting strategies,
the bone-crushers, once the most dominant of the canids, found themselves struggling
for survival.
The last of the bone-crushing dogs, a genus known as Borophagus, vanished about 2 million
years ago.
And that first subfamily, the hesperocyonines, had already died out about 13 million years
earlier, unable to compete with both and bone-crushers and the arrival of the cats.
So two out of the three canid subfamilies are dead and gone.
And there's no definitive proof that any Hesperocyonines or bone-crushers ever left
North America.
But the canines spread well beyond the continent.
They crossed Panama and entered South America, which now has its own native canine species,
like the maned wolf.
Further west, canines made their way across Eurasia and into Africa.
And with a little help from seafaring humans, the forerunners of the iconic "dingo"
dog landed in Australia 4,000 years ago.
So, if you're inclined to, you can read the story of the bone crushing dogs as something
of a cautionary tale.
It reminds us that being "top dog" isn't all it's cracked up to be.
We tend to think of big, powerful predators as being the ones that rule their ecosystems.
But their position is actually one of the most precarious: When the local environment
changes and competition appears, it's the large, specialized carnivores that often struggle
to adapt.
Or if you want, you can just blame everything on the cats.

John McCain's 106-Year-Old Mom Grieving The Loss Of Her Son: It's 'Tough' To
'Bury Your Child'
The country is honoring and mourning decorated war veteran, POW survivor and U.S. senator,
John McCain after the 81-year-old succumbed to brain cancer on Saturday.
He discontinued medical treatment the previous day.
McCain was diagnosed with glioblastoma in July 2017.
This is the most severe and aggressive form of brain cancer.
Sen. McCain impacted the lives of thousands.
None more so than Roberta McCain, his 106-year-old mother.
A close family friend of the McCain's told PEOPLE that Roberta is "incredibly proud"
of her middle child."
A happy belated birthday to Roberta McCain who turned 104 years old last week!
104.
Wow.
Roberta is Senator John McCain's mom.
"Roberta was his biggest supporter and the leader of his fan club.
She was incredibly proud of him," the source says.
"His mommy loved him.
He knew that."
The source points out the centenarian's age.
She "is a very strong woman."
"SHE IS ALL THERE, MENTALLY, AND IS STILL GOING STRONG AT 106," THE FRIEND TELLS PEOPLE.
"SHE OUTLIVED HER 81-YEAR-OLD SON.
THAT TELLS YOU A LOT.
BUT IT'S A TOUGH BLOW TO BURY YOUR CHILD ."
The source also said that Roberta did not travel to Arizona, but she and her son did
speak over the phone.
She was aware that he was ceasing medical treatment.
"I can only imagine what she's going through," the friend says of Roberta through tears.
Sen. McCain and his first wife Carol still speak and are still close.
They divorced in 1980 after a 15-year marriage where they had three children: sons Douglas,
Andy, and daughter Sidney.
"John never stopped loving Carol," the insider says.
They spoke regularly.
The insider exclusively told PEOPLE: "Roberta is 106, but she's spunky.
She knows he is ill."
In 2008, the proud mother, at the age of 96 spoke to McCain supporters: "Johnny is going
to be the president of the United States, and he's going to keep the traditions … and
the standards high," she told the crowd, receiving applause.
"All we want is a world where we can raise our children, have a chance at prosperity
and happiness, and we can vote any way we want to," she continued before ending on
a sweet note.
"I can not thank you enough … I wish I could kiss each one of you on the cheek.
If I get a chance, I will."
PEOPLE recalled the time the publication spent on McCain's campaign bus during 2007 when
Roberta was 95.
There's a cute story she shared with the magazine after her son's urging..
"ROBERTA TEASED HER SON, "I WANT TO CORRECT YOU WHEN YOU START TELLING ALL THOSE BIG LIES."
"When the conversation turned to the "Straight Talk Express" campaign bus itself — "This
is wonderful!
Can you imagine me comfortable on a bus?"
Roberta said — Sen. McCain asked his mother to regale the group with a story about a driving
mishap in Arizona.
"It's so dumb!" she began.
"I was driving across the continent [in 2003] and had 300 miles to Los Angeles.
I thought, well, I can make it tonight.
So I put the gas on.
I got a ticket for driving 112 miles per hour, signed my name and went on my way."
"When her granddaughter Meghan McCain, then 23, praised her for the tale, Roberta responded,
"Honey, I shoot my mouth off like a neophyte!"
"Roberta spoke earnestly about her son, too, during the interview.
"I think civilization depends on this election," she told PEOPLE.
"Johnny should have been dead ten times already.
Not just when he was a POW in Vietnam.
He had so many near-misses [as a naval aviator].
He was saved for some reason."
McCain's second wife, Cindy, 64, posted this emotional tweet after his death.
"My heart is broken.
I am so lucky to have lived the adventure of loving this incredible man for 38 years.
He passed the way he lived, on his own terms, surrounded by the people he loved, in the
place he loved best."
"In the thirty-three years we shared together, he raised me, taught me, corrected me, comforted
me, encouraged me, and supported me in all things," his daughter, Meghan wrote.
She added, "He taught me how to live.
His love and his care, ever-present, always unfailing, took me from a girl to a woman
— and he showed me what it is to be a man."
Sen. McCain will be honored this week by both political adversaries and friends alike.
Per his wishes, he will be buried in Maryland at the Naval academy.

Salvador Dalí's Stairway to Heaven Exhibit, Featuring Over 140 Artworks - Duration: 5:50.
"Salvador Dalí's Stairway to Heaven" showcases over 140 works by the prolific artist.
The exhibition uniquely presents two of Dalís projects from the collection of the Park West Museum.
My name is LouAnne Greenwald and I'm the director here at the Hilliard University Art Museum at UM.
We're delighted to be the first venue for this wonderful exhibition and it's really special for
us to be able to present an artist like Salvador Dalí,
someone of international importance to our community.
He has a wonderful way of working both abstractly and figuratively,
and I think in his prints you really see how he was truly a master, you know,
especially in the way he renders the figure in the musculature of the body
and his representations are sometimes fantastic and sometimes horrifying,
but always really intriguing,
and I think the two print portfolios together
really create an interesting dialogue about mortality and about spirituality.
So, we are sitting in one of three galleries here at the Hilliard Museum,
and this is the gallery where we have installed "Salvador Dalí's Stairway to Heaven,"
and tonight will be the opening of the exhibitions.
In honor of Dalí's Spanish heritage, we'll have flamenco dancers in the atrium
So I think it'll be a really fun and festive evening this evening.
Dalí believed that Surrealism's role in society was to question
the intellectual systems and traditions that unify it.
He hoped to expose what he believed were the false narratives humankind
imposed upon culture and the physical world,
which he viewed as an arbitrary, irrational place.
Ben Hickey is the curator at the Hilliard University Art Museum
and he toured guests through the exhibition that was guest curated by David Rubin.
[Ben Hickey] "Dalí's Stairway to Heaven" presents a fascinating analog for Dalí's life
and, I really like it because a personal look at a canonical artist that is so famous
that he becomes one dimensional at times.
So within this exhibition we're looking at two bodies of work by Dalí:
[LouAnne Greenwald] one called "Les Chants de Maldoror,"
which is an illustration of a 19th century poem that the Surrealists embraced
and Dalí had the opportunity to illustrate that in black and white.
[Hickey] You see a world that is amoral, nihilistic, cruel, and savage,
which mirrors Dalí's personal worldview as a younger artist,
[Greenwald]and then that's contrasted with "The Divine Comedy" that Dalí produced in the late 1950s
and it's again illustrations of "The Divine Comedy,"
but with a more kind of spiritual reflection.
[Hickey] You, you see some struggle and some evil but he emerges redeemed
and that parallels Dalí later in life becoming interested in
spirituality and Christianity and mysticism as well.
We see Dalí borrowing from canonical religious imagery for example
he references a drawing believed to be made by Saint John of the Cross from the 16th century,
and it features this God's eye view downward of Jesus as he's dying for humanity's sins,
and it's something that people can relate to, and this type of imagery is what I touched on before
where it's relatable, it makes Dalí relatable as he's going through his own personal
journey through mysticism, Christianity.
You know, in South Louisiana we love Surrealism, we love costumes,
so, there's a particular resonance of this kind of work in our community.
it's wonderful to be able to borrow works from the Park West Museum,
and just want to say thank you so much to them.

The Rise and Fall of the Bone-Crushing Dogs - Duration: 9:38.Thanks to WIX for supporting PBS Digital Studios
In its day, it was quite literally top dog.
By some estimates, it could grow as big as a brown bear.
And with its powerful jaws and stout teeth, it was not only a skilled hunter -- it could
also crack open the bones of its prey.
It's known today as Epicyon, and it stalked North America from sixteen million to seven
million years ago, during the Miocene epoch.
The largest of these creatures were the most massive dogs that ever lived.
But they weren't like the dogs that we know today.
Epicyon hailed from a lineage known as the Borophaginae, often known by their more common
-- and way more metal -- nickname, the "bone-crushing dogs."
A huge and diverse subfamily of dogs, the bone-crushers patrolled North America for
more than thirty million years, before they disappeared in the not-too-distant past.
So what happened to the biggest dogs that ever lived?
Part of what happened to them was … dogs as we know them.
Our dogs.
And another thing that happened to them?
Cats.
The only important thing that Epicyon has in common with your golden retriever
or whatever is that they're both canids.
Dogs, wolves, foxes, and all their kin belong to the family Canidae.
Today there are 34 species of canids, from the leggy maned wolf to the big-eared fennec
fox.
Now, some experts think the earliest canid was a small, weasel-like creature called Prohesperocyon,
which first appeared about 36 million years ago in southern Texas.
Not everyone's convinced that Prohesperocyon was a canid, though.
It may have been part of a different group of mammals, called the Miacidae, which shares
a common ancestor with modern carnivores.
Either way, every canid — from the giant bone-crushers to the pup that's probably
watching this with you right now — all share some key traits.
They all eat meat, though there are some that eat plants and invertebrates once in a while.
And other distinguishing trait can be found in their ears.
Canids have hollow bony structures toward the back of their skulls called auditory bullae
that protect the delicate bones of the middle ear.
Lots of other mammals have them too.
But in canids, they're especially big, and it's thought that these extra large spaces
help dogs and wolves hear low-frequency sounds.
Now, tens of millions of years ago, some ancestral canid, whether it was Prohesperocyon or someone
else, was the predecessor to the first of the three great subfamilies of canids.
And only one of these subfamilies survives today.
The earliest group was the Hesperocyoninae.
These were small, nimble carnivores that were adapted to the warm, forested world of the
Late Eocene.
And the founding member of this group was Hesperocyon, which appears in the fossil record
around 37 million years ago in the great plains of North America.
Who's the cutest little ancestral dog?
Aren't you?
Yes you are!
It probably ate smaller mammals, and some
species may have climbed trees.
Because, just like cats, they had fully retractable claws, a trait that canids eventually lost.
As the Eocene transitioned to the Oligocene, the climate cooled.
The woodlands of North America started to gave way to grasslands.
And large herbivores moved into this new environment, evolving traits that helped them eat grass
and run long distances.
And as the prey species grew, some of the hesperocyonines did as well.
In short order, this splinter group left the forests and began hunting the new prey on
the new grasslands.
For example, one of Hesperocyon's descendants was a little critter called Archaeocyon.
It appears in the fossil record around 30 million years ago and may be the earliest
member of the second great subfamily, the Borophaginae, the bone-crushers.
Unlike its ancestors, Archaeocyon had shorter jaws and thicker premolars.
But, it wasn't quite ready to actually crush bone.
Instead, Archaeocyon and most of the early borophagines were small, opportunistic omnivores,
kinda like raccoons.
It wasn't until the mid-Miocene that new species appeared that ate meat almost exclusively
and were big enough to start competing with the largest of that first wave of dogs, the
The hesperocyonines.
And that's where mighty Epicyon comes in.
One species in this genus—Epicyon haydeni—was the biggest of the big, thought to be the
largest canid of all time.
According to one estimate, Epicyon could've tipped the scales at 170 kilograms, making
it more than twice as massive as the heaviest grey wolf on record.
But we talked to an expert in bone-crushers -- Dr. Xiaoming Wang at the Natural History
Museum of Los Angeles County.
And he said that 170 kilos was probably a low estimate and that the biggest Epicyons
might've been "substantially larger."
In any case, all the Epicyon species looked very different from the dogs and wolves we
know today.
In addition to their distinctive domed foreheads, they had wide palates and massive cheek teeth.
These features allowed them to perform the feat that would eventually give them their
full-metal nickname: They could crunch through solid bone.
They did this to get to the nutritious, calorie-dense marrow of the bone.
And we know this because, in most of the big bone-crushers, their cheek teeth show distinctive
marks -- the same marks that modern hyenas get by gnawing on bones.
And some samples of fossilized poop from Epicyon have even been found to contain bits of bone.
Now, for years, scientists thought that these were signs that borophagines were scavengers.
But the more recent thinking is that at least some bone-crushers actively hunted prey that
were as large -- or even larger -- than they were.
Maybe even in packs.
After all, large modern predators like wolves tend to do the same thing.
So there's no reason to think the borophagines acted differently.
And because they were powerful, but not built for speed, many experts think that bone-crushers
were probably what are known as pounce-pursuit predators.
Like coyotes, they probably chased their prey for short distances, and then wrestled them
to the ground.
But, whatever they were doing back then, they were doing something right.
Because, at the peak of their success, six to twelve million years ago, there were about
fifteen different species of bone-crushing dogs.
In addition to the giant Epicyon, for instance, there was Cynarctus, about the size of a coyote
and just as much of an opportunist.
Judging by its teeth, most of its diet consisted of insects and plants.
But, by contrast, there was also a lineage within the genus Aelurodon that became increasingly
carnivorous over time.
As the Miocene epoch was drawing to a close, bone-crushing dogs roamed North America from
Maryland to California and from Montana to Mexico.
Then their fortunes took a downward turn.
One of the culprits in their decline was the third and final subfamily of canids: The Caninae,
the only group of dogs that would be left standing.
Canines first appear a little over 30 million years ago.
And there's a debate over whether they arose from small Hesperocyonines or from small bone-crushers.
It's just another of the many fascinating things that paleontologists are still fighting
about.
But we do know that one of the first canines on record was Leptocyon.
Which, again, isn't it super cute?
I just want to...boop!
It made its debut in the early Oligocene and was about the size of a fox.
Like other early canines, it had a long snout with thinner teeth.
So it couldn't bring down big game like horses or camels, but it was adept at catching
small, fast prey.
But the most noteworthy thing about these new, early canines was their legs.
While Epicyon and other bone-crushers were getting bigger and heavier, canines slowly
developed into cross-country marathon runners.
The trend started way back with Hesperocyon, which had pretty long legs.
But by the time Leptocyon showed up, they were even longer, allowing it to make longer
strides.
And by the late Miocene, yet another streamlining trait appeared: the reduction of the "big
toe" on each foot.
Through natural selection, this fifth toe shrank away, becoming little more than a tiny
nub in some species and disappearing altogether in others.
These shrinking toes helped make canines' feet and legs lighter.
And that, combined with their longer stride, allowed them to adopt a totally different
hunting strategy.
Instead of pouncing on their prey like bone crushers did, canines could run their victims
down for hours, until they dropped from exhaustion.
If you've ever seen a wolf hunt, you know this is the method they still use today.
And this strategy might also explain why canines are the only dogs that still exist: Because
they were best equipped to go up against the newest and fiercest competitors in North America.
You could say they're dogs' oldest foes: cats.
And I make this face when I say cats because i'm not 100% a cat person
Cats first evolved in Eurasia some 33 million years ago.
But about 14 million years later, they migrated across the Bering Land Bridge and quickly
spread south.
And some experts think it was competition with cats that ultimately did in the bone-crushing
dogs.
Large new cat species, like Pseudaelurus, were ambush predators that probably competed
with the bone-crushers for the same prey.
And simply put, the cats were just better at it: More efficient, with retractable claws,
they had a much easier time wrangling their prey.
So while the canines went on with their own set of prey and long-distance hunting strategies,
the bone-crushers, once the most dominant of the canids, found themselves struggling
for survival.
The last of the bone-crushing dogs, a genus known as Borophagus, vanished about 2 million
years ago.
And that first subfamily, the hesperocyonines, had already died out about 13 million years
earlier, unable to compete with both and bone-crushers and the arrival of the cats.
So two out of the three canid subfamilies are dead and gone.
And there's no definitive proof that any Hesperocyonines or bone-crushers ever left
North America.
But the canines spread well beyond the continent.
They crossed Panama and entered South America, which now has its own native canine species,
like the maned wolf.
Further west, canines made their way across Eurasia and into Africa.
And with a little help from seafaring humans, the forerunners of the iconic "dingo"
dog landed in Australia 4,000 years ago.
So, if you're inclined to, you can read the story of the bone crushing dogs as something
of a cautionary tale.
It reminds us that being "top dog" isn't all it's cracked up to be.
We tend to think of big, powerful predators as being the ones that rule their ecosystems.
But their position is actually one of the most precarious: When the local environment
changes and competition appears, it's the large, specialized carnivores that often struggle
to adapt.
Or if you want, you can just blame everything on the cats.

Top 4 Causes Of High Estrogen In Men (What To Avoid) - Duration: 11:31.
these days men have experienced a big decrease in testosterone overall as a
population there's been a generational change men have more estrogen less
testosterone now of course this is due to a number of factors but these four
that I'm going to mention certainly do do play a role as some of the evidence
supports it so I'm gonna go through these four things break it down and help
you guys figure out how to maximize your testosterone and decrease food products
and factors in your life which may be causing you to have too much estrogen so
both men and women have testosterone and estrogen and men need estrogen and and
conversely women need testosterone so a men produce that testosterone and their
testicles mainly our women produced their estrogen and their ovaries and men
actually produce their estrogen primarily through converting
testosterone into estrogen via the aromatized enzyme right so that's
something you want to prevent in most cases because in general decreasing your
estrogen levels as a guy is usually going to be a good idea unless you're in
a specific type of person there there are cases out there of course where you
may need to increase it for whatever reason but for most guys decreasing
estrogen levels is definitely something you want to work towards so estrogen can
produce female sex characteristics even in men you know too much estrogen is
gonna cause fat buildup it's going to inhibit luteinizing hormone production
which is basically the testosterone is formed so overall it's not something you
want and excess so the first way that you you want to reduce environmental
estrogen isn't through soy that's a big myth by the way just wanted to make that
clear but it's reducing your use of plastics especially if you're heating up
foods and plastic containers so plastics obviously have made our lives so
convenient right and it's not like plastics are gonna turn you into a woman
you don't need to start freaking out but one reason out of the many why our
testosterone levels may be decreasing as men is because of our use of plastics
especially when plastic is heated and chemicals from the plastics seep into
the food that we consume and these chemicals may be responsible for
increasing estrogen levels so many of these chemicals and the plastics that
leach out into the food have been identified as xno estrogens succès knows
a Greek word which means foreign rights of foreign estrogenic compounds which
get into the food so two of the most common ones of bpa and violates so the
research unfortunately hasn't just shown like a slight relationship between
plastic use in testosterone many well-designed studies which of course
holding the lowers always have shown quite a significant relationship between
these compounds something like especially phalates and decrease in
testosterone so decreasing your use of plastics is definitely something you
want to consider a really easy way to do this something that i incorporate it in
my own life unfortunately i can't actually do it right now I'm living in
Asia and you can't really use tap water you have to kind of buy plastic bottled
water but when I was living back in New Zealand
I just bought a metal flask kind of similar to a coffee flask and then I
would just use that for my water and then I would prevent using a water
bottle because of that another thing you may want to do just to change in your
life is instead of heating up your food in a plastic container take it out of
the plastic container defrost it so you can unstick it from it and then put it
on a plate and then defrost it and heat it up in the microwave for example small
changes like this over time they're going to accumulate to a lesson use of
plastic which may help to benefit your testosterone levels and decrease your
estrogen levels so the second thing you can do is limit your polyunsaturated fat
intake so the three types of fat most of you will know as saturated fats
monounsaturated fats and polyunsaturated fats so basically a food is gonna be a
saturated fat food or monounsaturated fat food if the primary fat that it has
is made up of that fat like an avocado has mostly monounsaturated fat so most
people see the avocado as a source of monounsaturated fat meats have
monounsaturated fats too but they tend to have more saturated fats nuts and
seeds oils like soybean oil these sorts of oils and fats are high in
polyunsaturated fats so these you want to avoid an excess yes including omega-3
on this omega-3 is very important to get you should be getting your DHA in your
eat pa DHA is very important for brain
health omega-3 has been shown to help increase protein synthesis so omega-3 is
something you should be trying to get in your diet but it's it's overall
polyunsaturated fats have been shown to have an inverse relationship with
testosterone while saturated and monounsaturated fats have been shown to
have a positive correlation with testosterone there have been some
studies on single cells animal studies that show with that polyunsaturated fats
stimulate estrogen production so you want to minimize overall polyunsaturated
fat intake get in your omega-3s and primarily reduce the amount of omega-6
you're getting omega sixes and polyunsaturated fats in general are
prone to lipid peroxidation in the body they go rancid they cause inflammation
in the body so they're definitely not gonna kill you is something to kill you
to have a few nuts and seeds but if you're using the concentrated forms of
these seeds things like soybean oil that this is gonna add a lot of omega-6 into
your diet and unfortunately a lot of restaurants use this it's in a lot of
food products and this does cause inflammation and increase the amount of
polyunsaturated fat that you're consuming when you could be getting it
from the best source of fat that you can get which I say based on the research
I've seen is monounsaturated fat saturated fat isn't dangerous but
monounsaturated fat tends to be the best in my opinion because it's not
correlated with any diseases it's good for things like testosterone so it's
like the safe option that doesn't really have any harmful aspects so one on
cetera is that should be your main source of fat get some saturated fat
minimize that omega-6 and given your omega-3s and take down that
polyunsaturated fat in total okay so the third way you can reduce estrogen is
going to be to reduce your total body fat percentage you want to have your
body fat percentage somewhere between 8 and 14 to 15 percent 8 to 15 percent now
the reason I say this is because at this body fat percentage
you're gonna look the best right it's the most visually appealing especially
10 to 12 percent 10 to 12 percent is a really good range for one you look
really good too it's relatively sustainable and 3 it's going to minimize
the amount of estrogen in your body the more
fat you have the more estrogen you actually produce right so minimizing of
fat taking down your body fat percentage has been shown to increase testosterone
decrease estrogen we know that fatter people have less
testosterone anyway keep lean and that's going to minimize estrogen and keep your
testosterone levels high the best way you can do this is stay in a calorie
deficit strength training focus on progressive overload and consume enough
protein the main way to lose fat is to focus on your calories and your protein
everything else after this meal timing carbs none of this actually matters that
much in comparison to your total calorie intake protein and whether you're
gaining strength and building muscle so keep that in mind if your goal is to
lose fat I've made plenty of other content in the past on how to lose fat
that's primarily what the channel is about so if you're new here then please
check out other videos on my channel to learn more about how to lose fat
effectively so the fourth way to reduce estrogen right and this is from my diet
comes from milk unfortunately because today's milk is
actually supplying 60 to 70% of our estrogen from dietary sources according
to some research which is a lot there have been plenty of overviews and
reviews of studies showing that milk isn't really harmful you know it can be
part of the healthy diet it has nutrients like protein and vitamin D and
calcium so it can definitely be part of a healthy diet but if you're trying to
increase the sauce thrown and reduce the amount of estrogen that your body is
producing from the food that you're getting then reducing milk intake may be
a good idea so one Japanese study actually looked at
pre-pubertal boys and men over 21 days and what they found is that the milk
suppress the production of precursors to testosterone increased estrogen so it
really was not good news for these men and young boys from a hormonal
standpoint so here's an interesting theory and this may mean that you don't
have to give up milk overall and anyway let me make it clear that even if milk
does increase estrogen you don't have to give it up it's not like the effect that
this would have on your testosterone levels is going to prevent you from
building muscle and losing fat and reaching your body composition goals let
me make that very so this isn't like a requirement
otherwise you're gonna groan manboobs I just want to make that clear but it is
something to keep in mind if you're trying to optimize all your hormones um
so what the study found is that it was looking at low-fat milk and a higher fat
milk on sperm health and what it found is that sperm health was negatively
affected when participants were consuming high fat milk and this may be
because estrogen is fat soluble meaning that the more fat milk has the more
estrogen is more likely going to have so the idea here is that low-fat milk may
be a better option if you're trying to minimize the amount of negative effects
milk is gonna have on your estrogen levels while drinking high fat milk is
probably a bad idea so this is great if you want to consume milk in your diet
and not have to worry about this because you're still gonna get those beneficial
nutrients like protein calcium and vitamin D and will less calories as well
so remember it's not the fat in milk which is actually that problematic you
know it's just about your macronutrients and your calories and if you're not
overeating and because of milk it's generally not gonna be a problem for
your health so overall you know if you want to keep your testosterone levels
high and your estrogen down you should be doing the basics strength training
sleeping it off getting enough Sun you should be doing all these things but if
you want to maximize things take it to the next level then reduce that plastic
intake not actually in taking plastic but don't heat things up with plastic
take down those polyunsaturated fats overall especially those are omega sixes
which are inflammatory next you want to take down your body fat percentage stay
between 10 to 12% body fat it's a good range to be up and lastly try not to
overdo it on the full fat dairy maybe switch the low fat instead overall you
know the dairy thing it's not going to be the worst thing in the world as long
as you tolerate dairy well but it is something to keep in mind so thank you
so much for watching I appreciate it as always if you are looking to take your
body to the next level and you're kind of ready to commit to something and you
want a program then I highly recommend you check out the rip dude program down

How Habits are Formed - Duration: 6:33.
Hey smart people, Joe here.
What if I told you that the reason you had minty-fresh breath this morning was because
100 years ago an advertiser named Claude C. Hopkins was having trouble selling a brand
of toothpaste?
He needed to convince people that brushing their teeth should be a daily routine, and
back then, it wasn't for most people.
In the end he was able to get half the American public to pick up a new behavior and repeat
it every single day, and pay money for his toothpaste.
How did he do it?
By tapping into neuroscience and decoding the awesome power of habits.
[OPEN]
Habits.
We've all got 'em.
You can probably think of a few of your own.
I always seem to tap my feet when I'm trying to sit still.
And I find myself biting my nails whenever I'm focused on reading or watching a movie.
I don't consciously think about doing these things.
That's because I've done them so often that they've become a habit.
We know habits as things we do automatically; tasks we do subconsciously, like walking or
high fiving.
And there's a ton of things that technically count as habits, and they can be good or bad.
So why do we form habits?
And how do we learn new ones, or un-learn old ones?
If you've ever taken the same path to school or work, then you likely have that pathway
burned into your brain.
You can probably walk it without really paying attention.
Habits are built in a similar way.
New neural pathways are formed when you repeat a behavior.
And the more a brain circuit fires, the easier it becomes for our brain to do whatever that
circuit controls, without conscious thought.
Think back to how you learned to ride a bike.
At first, riding a bike is tough.
You've got to learn how to pedal and balance and turn all at the same time.
You have to consciously think about each action.
This happens in an area of your brain called the prefrontal cortex, the part associated
with complex thought.
But eventually, after you ride enough, you no longer have to consciously think about
each individual action.
Riding a bike has become a habit, and now it's controlled by different parts of your
brain.
One area involved in habitual behavior is the striatum, which actually releases chemicals
that inhibit the complex thinking part of your brain for that task.
This is your brain being efficient.
By turning down your brain's thinking requirements for bike riding, it's free to think other
things, like 'how exactly do igloos keep you warm?"
Let's go back to Claude Hopkins and his toothpaste scheme.
Claude realized habits have three key ingredients.
A cue, a behavior, and a reward.
A cue is something that triggers a behavior, like how the alarm clock triggers you punching
the snooze button, and this is followed by the reward - 9 sweet extra minutes of sleeping
in.
Claude got people thinking about that slimy film on your teeth in the morning, thanks
to bacteria that colonize your mouth overnight.
The sticky film is the cue that triggers brushing behavior.
What was the reward?
Claude convinced people this film would make their smile look ugly and a prettier smile
was the reward for brushing.
Claude understood that with the right cue and the right reward, you could entice people
to do just about whatever behavior you wanted.
But what he didn't know was that rewarding a behavior can actually create a craving,
and this is what makes habits so strong.
Scientists now know that special neurons in the brain can fire and give us chemical rewards.
But what's weird is that once a habit and a reward are tied together in our brain, those
reward neurons start firing even before you do the behavior.
This is what causes craving, and it's why you want popcorn when you go to the movies,
why you pick up your bad habits when you see other people doing them, and why habits are
so hard to break.
Claude knew a prettier smile would be a reward that would make people brush, but he didn't
anticipate that over time people would subconsciously start craving the minty tingle that Pepsodent
left in their mouths.
People's brains actually started to crave toothbrushing.
So how can you train yourself to pick up a new habit, like eating an apple a day.
And if you've got a bad habit, can you break it, or are you stuck with it forever?
Scientists used to think that our brains didn't change all that much once we reached adulthood,
like concrete once it's solidified.
But it turns out your brain is much more like clay - it's a super flexible organ.
The chemistry of your brain is constantly changing as you go about your day, in response
to everything from learning to moving to hunger.
These chemical releases are short lived, but over time, if the same behaviors are repeated,
the physical structure of the brain is actually changed.
You create new neural pathways.
And because the neural network has changed, so does the way the information flows.
When a behavior is repeated often enough, a habit is formed.
There's a famous idea that a new skill is learned by putting in 10,000 hours of work,
but it's not that simple.
The amount of time differs hugely between tasks and between people.
What's for sure is that when it comes to making a habit, whether it's learning guitar
or meditation, there's simply no substitute for repetition.
The reason bad habits are so hard to break is because you have literally woven new neural
networks into your brain.
That doesn't go away overnight.
So give yourself a break.
And if you're trying to change a habit, know that it's usually best to try and replace
bad behavior with a new behavior instead of just trying to erase the pattern altogether.
The good thing is that now you know you have the power to change your brain.
It's as easy as brushing your teeth.
And if you haven't already made it a habit – Stay Curious.

Salvador Dalí's Stairway to Heaven Exhibit, Featuring Over 140 Artworks - Duration: 5:50."Salvador Dalí's Stairway to Heaven" showcases over 140 works by the prolific artist.
The exhibition uniquely presents two of Dalís projects from the collection of the Park West Museum.
My name is LouAnne Greenwald and I'm the director here at the Hilliard University Art Museum at UM.
We're delighted to be the first venue for this wonderful exhibition and it's really special for
us to be able to present an artist like Salvador Dalí,
someone of international importance to our community.
He has a wonderful way of working both abstractly and figuratively,
and I think in his prints you really see how he was truly a master, you know,
especially in the way he renders the figure in the musculature of the body
and his representations are sometimes fantastic and sometimes horrifying,
but always really intriguing,
and I think the two print portfolios together
really create an interesting dialogue about mortality and about spirituality.
So, we are sitting in one of three galleries here at the Hilliard Museum,
and this is the gallery where we have installed "Salvador Dalí's Stairway to Heaven,"
and tonight will be the opening of the exhibitions.
In honor of Dalí's Spanish heritage, we'll have flamenco dancers in the atrium
So I think it'll be a really fun and festive evening this evening.
Dalí believed that Surrealism's role in society was to question
the intellectual systems and traditions that unify it.
He hoped to expose what he believed were the false narratives humankind
imposed upon culture and the physical world,
which he viewed as an arbitrary, irrational place.
Ben Hickey is the curator at the Hilliard University Art Museum
and he toured guests through the exhibition that was guest curated by David Rubin.
[Ben Hickey] "Dalí's Stairway to Heaven" presents a fascinating analog for Dalí's life
and, I really like it because a personal look at a canonical artist that is so famous
that he becomes one dimensional at times.
So within this exhibition we're looking at two bodies of work by Dalí:
[LouAnne Greenwald] one called "Les Chants de Maldoror,"
which is an illustration of a 19th century poem that the Surrealists embraced
and Dalí had the opportunity to illustrate that in black and white.
[Hickey] You see a world that is amoral, nihilistic, cruel, and savage,
which mirrors Dalí's personal worldview as a younger artist,
[Greenwald]and then that's contrasted with "The Divine Comedy" that Dalí produced in the late 1950s
and it's again illustrations of "The Divine Comedy,"
but with a more kind of spiritual reflection.
[Hickey] You, you see some struggle and some evil but he emerges redeemed
and that parallels Dalí later in life becoming interested in
spirituality and Christianity and mysticism as well.
We see Dalí borrowing from canonical religious imagery for example
he references a drawing believed to be made by Saint John of the Cross from the 16th century,
and it features this God's eye view downward of Jesus as he's dying for humanity's sins,
and it's something that people can relate to, and this type of imagery is what I touched on before
where it's relatable, it makes Dalí relatable as he's going through his own personal
journey through mysticism, Christianity.
You know, in South Louisiana we love Surrealism, we love costumes,
so, there's a particular resonance of this kind of work in our community.
it's wonderful to be able to borrow works from the Park West Museum,
and just want to say thank you so much to them.

Miranda Lambert's Ex Evan Felker Postpones Band's Shows Due to 'Inability to Pass a Kidney Stone' - Duration: 2:57.
The Turnpike Troubadours had to scrap their performance at the Fayetteville Roots Festival on Sunday after lead singer — and Miranda Lambert's ex-boyfriend — Evan Felker was unable to take the stage because of severe pain caused by a kidney stone
"Unfortunately due to a medical emergency Turnpike Troubadours will be unable to perform tonight at Fayetteville Roots Festival," the band said in a statement shared to their Instagram on Sunday
"The band was present and prepared to play, but after evaluation it was advised that Evan Felker should not perform tonight due to pain associated with the inability to pass a kidney stone he has been struggling with since earlier in the week
We sincerely apologize to the fans and festival staff for this unfortunate situation
" The news comes just days after the band's publicist announced on Thursday that the Turnpike Troubadours had to cancel their final two appearances performing as the opening act on Little Big Town and Miranda Lambert's Bandwagon tour due to "some serious family emergencies" that forced the band "to be close to home," according to savingcountrymusic
com. "We are disappointed, as well," the band commented in reaction to a follower who felt "disappointed" about the string of canceled shows
"We sincerely appreciate all of you who are willing to see us through these things
When it rains, it pours." But fans are speculating there's more to the story. After nearly six months of dating, Felker and Lambert, both 34, split in mid-August, around the same time the band announced several cancelled shows
The pair's working relationship turned romantic when Turnpike Troubadours first opened for Miranda Lambert's Livin' Like Hippies tour in early February
They continued on to serve as openers for her Bandwagon tour. Lambert revealed the two had parted ways during a recent interview with The Tennessean, when she admitted to being "happily single
" "Love is a hard road sometimes and it's been a roller-coaster ride for me, but I'm definitely thankful for all the ups and downs because I've had some really good songs come out of it," Lambert said
"You've got to take the bad parts and put them on paper and then move on to the happy parts
"

In the first, she said, "Look who I bumped into." Fatone replied, "And look who I'm stealing," pretending to carry the babies away
When Johnson Herjavec said, "You look really comfortable there, Joey," Fatone answered, "Well, I've had kids before
" (The former 'NSYNC member is dad to daughters Kloey Alexandra, 8½, and Briahna, 17
) In the next video, as Johnson Herjavec complimented Fatone for cradling Haven until she fell asleep, the singer said, "It's called the magic touch
" Earlier this month, Johnson Herjavec told fans that caring for the babies — her only children — with husband Robert Herjavec, has required her to multitask
In the photo, she held one twin and bottle-fed the other. "I've always wanted to be a mom, and I wasn't sure it was going to happen
It really is a miracle," Johnson Herjavec told PEOPLE weeks before giving birth. "It's such an amazing blessing

NADCIŚNIENIE ZABIJA PO CICHU - Duration: 7:29.
Kilka milionów osób w Polsce nie wie, że ma nadciśnienie tętnicze.
To cichy zabójca – objawów tej choroby można po prostu nie odczuwać. Jedyny sposób jej wykrycia to regularne pomiary ciśnienia.
W maju można zrobić badanie za darmo w wielu placówkach ochrony zdrowia i aptekach.
Warto robić takie pomiary, bo nieleczone nadciśnienie prowadzi m.in. do udarów mózgu i zawałów serca.
Dzięki wykryciu nadciśnienia można też odkryć inne choroby, jeśli jest ono wtórne, np.
do takich, podstawowych problemów zdrowotnych, jak choroby nerek czy zaburzenia hormonalne.
Pomiar ciśnienia tętniczego jest prostym, łatwo dostępnym i bezbolesnym badaniem.
W Polsce żyje co najmniej 9,5 mln osób chorych na nadciśnienie, ale ponad 40 proc. z nich o tym nie wie.
Tymczasem ludzie żyjący przez wiele lat z ukrytym, a więc i nieleczonym nadciśnieniem, narażeni są niestety na wiele groźnych konsekwencji i szkód zdrowotnych.
Najgroźniejszym powikłaniem nadciśnienia jest udar mózgu – ostrzega dr Mirosław Mastej, członek Międzynarodowego Towarzystwa Nadciśnienia Tętniczego (ISH).
Według innych, skrajnie pesymistycznych szacunków, nawet 11 mln osób w Polsce cierpi na nadciśnienie.
Objawy nadciśnienia, które występują tylko u części chorych (wielu nie ma żadnych) obejmują m.in.: bóle i zawroty głowy, uderzenia gorąca, zaczerwienienie twarzy, bezsenność.
Można powiedzieć, że nadciśnienie to cichy zabójca, bo nie boli i przez dłuższy czas nie daje żadnych charakterystycznych objawów, ale prowadzi do uszkodzenia wielu ważnych organów w ludzkim ciele.
Na szczęście chorobę tę można wyłapać za pomocą zwykłego pomiaru ciśnienia – mówi dr Mirosław Mastej.
Niestety, wielu Polaków, zwłaszcza mężczyzn, nie poddaje się regularnym badaniom kontrolnym lub wręcz unika wizyt u lekarzy – z różnych powodów,
m.in.: z braku czasu, z braku dostępu do specjalisty, z niewiedzy czy też ze strachu.
To właśnie z myślą o takich, nie dbających należycie o swoje zdrowie czy też po prostu mocno zabieganych osobach,
organizowane są akcje oferujące przeprowadzenie bezpłatnych badań przesiewowych i kampanie uświadamiające – takie jak „Maj miesiącem mierzenia ciśnienia tętniczego" czy „#bojatakmowie".
Maj miesiącem mierzenia ciśnienia tętniczego; W ramach tej ogólnoświatowej kampanii, organizowanej przez Międzynarodowe Towarzystwo Nadciśnienia Tętniczego wraz z partnerami,
miliony osób w ponad 100 krajach świata, w tym także w Polsce, będą mogły skorzystać z bezpłatnych pomiarów ciśnienia tętniczego.
Będą one realizowane przez wolontariuszy w tysiącach specjalnych punktów pomiaru ciśnienia, umiejscowionych np.
Listę takich punktów w Polsce można znaleźć na stronie internetowej kampanii www.mmm18.pl. w aptekach, placówkach medycznych czy sklepach.
Organizatorzy kampanii stawiają sobie za cel przede wszystkim przebadanie jak największej liczby osób,
u których ciśnienie tętnicze nie było mierzone w przeciągu ostatniego roku, bowiem zgodnie z zaleceniami ekspertów, profilaktyczne pomiary ciśnienia należy wykonywać minimum raz w roku.
Ale z bezpłatnego badania mogą skorzystać wszystkie zainteresowane osoby.
Kto jest w grupie wysokiego ryzyka; Eksperci podpowiadają, że wśród osób najbardziej zagrożonych wystąpieniem nadciśnienia znajdują się:
Mężczyźni w wieku powyżej 55 lat Kobiety powyżej 65 lat Osoby palące papierosy Osoby z nieprawidłowym stężeniem cholesterolu we krwi ;
Osoby z podwyższonym stężeniem glukozy we krwi (cukrzyca) Osoby z przewlekłymi chorobami nerek Osoby otyłe Osoby,
w rodzinie których występowały choroby sercowonaczyniowe.
Nadciśnienie: co robić? Najważniejsze to: ściśle stosować się do zaleceń lekarskich, a zatem nie odstawiać leków na własną rękę; wprowadzić zmiany w swoim stylu życia,
Zdrowy styl życia wtedy, kiedy nie chorujemy na nadciśnienie, ogranicza ryzyko zachorowania, a jeśli do niego dojdzie złagodzi jego przebieg. zaczynając od ograniczenia soli i tłuszczu w diecie.
Mamy realny wpływ na przyczyny wystąpienia podwyższonego ciśnienia tętniczego.
Nadwaga, otyłość, zaburzenia lipidowe, nadmierne spożycie soli kuchennej i alkoholu czy brak regularnej aktywności fizycznej, to czynniki, które sprzyjają rozwojowi nadciśnienia – podkreśla prof.
Maciej Banach z Uniwersytetu Medycznego w Łodzi.
Eksperci podkreślają jednak, że wysiłek fizyczny w przypadku osób z nadciśnieniem powinien być dobrany indywidualnie,
we współpracy z lekarzem lub rehabilitantem, tak by nie przyniósł więcej szkody niż pożytku.
Kiedy trzeba do szpitala z nadciśnieniem? Jeśli wartość pomiaru to ok.
220/120140 mmHg, należy przyjąć leki i udać się jak najszybciej do szpitala.
Warto też wtedy skontaktować się z dyspozytorem pogotowia ratunkowego w celu uzyskania wskazówek, co robić.
Nowe wytyczne z USA: redefinicja nadciśnienia; Na koniec warto wspomnieć, że w USA niedawno zmieniły się wytyczne ekspertów (m.in.
z American Heart Association i American College of Cardiology) dotyczące diagnozowania i leczenia nadciśnienia tętniczego.
Najważniejszą nowością jest zmiana wartości progowej rozpoznania nadciśnienia ze 140/90 mmHG do 130/80.
Zmiana ta, z różnych przyczyn, wzbudziła jednak silne kontrowersje w świecie naukowym, przez co w Europie i w Polsce definicja nadciśnienia (wartość graniczna) na razie się nie zmieniła.
