Illustration. This is also a very common myth in people looking to sport to lose weight. But in fact, studies have shown that the fastest way to destroy excess fat in the body is short exercise. That means that with short exercises, your excess fat will be reduced more than long exercises, and long exercises will make you lose strength, and in a long time the fat layer will be more hardened. Instead of spending an hour of practice, you just need to practice for 30 minutes and then rest for 20 minutes. And continue with the 2nd exercises for the next 30 minutes. The best time to exercise is in the morning This is not true for everyone. The best time to exercise is when you feel ready to exercise. It doesn’t matter if you enjoy exercising in the evening or if you enjoy jogging before going to school or going to work in the morning. The problem is consistency. Studies show that there is no real difference between morning and evening workouts. Without exercise, still able to lose weight? One thing to remember is that if you are in different locations where you do not have a weight loss program, the weight will be less likely to shift if it is not gaining weight. For example, if you sit to work in the office but do not pull in, then your belly fat will definitely stay there. In addition to the sense of applying exercise to lose weight anywhere at all times, you should incorporate external exercise activities such as walking, cycling, swimming that will help reduce overall fat overall. body (including targeted areas for weight loss). Drinking energy drinks is a great way to stay hydrated during exercise Energy drinks are nothing more than a mixture of sugar and water. Experts recommend drinking purified water instead and restoring energy with high-protein foods after exercise. Energy drinks are not a healthy way to deal with problems.

How to improve the performance of people born on this date? Phung Phuong expert will answer your questions for you! According to the feng-shui concept, the moon represents the yin (girl) and the sun represents the yin (boy). On the brightest and most beautiful full moon day, the lunar calendar is also the most prosperous. Girls born that night are most converged on these traits and partly transformed into personality. On the contrary, on the first day of the dimmest moon (hard to see), the solar energy will be the most. A son born that night will converge the powerful traits of yang in his personality. In terms of feng-shui, balance yin and yang is always the prerequisite for bringing good luck. Therefore, whether it is yin or yang, when it is at its peak, it is all unusual, not ideal. That is why many children born on these two days have a very special temperament, most of them stubborn and mischievous. Not to mention the hardships, difficulties, and difficulties to do everything. If you were born on the full moon or the 1st day and are concerned about the impact of bad fortune on your destiny, bring the Buddha of Destiny to be blessed, to protect peace on all paths of life. Also remember that even though you cannot decide the moment of your birth and the predetermined destiny, you can completely turn the tide with your own virtues and cultivation. * Information in the article is for reference only!

A primitive drawing on Pa Tém mountain with 4 people holding hands (big circle) and 1 dog behind (small circle). The mystery of high frescoes Mural – a term used to refer to drawings on erect cliffs. In Vietnam, archaeologists have discovered many prehistoric frescoes on the cliffs in Lang Son province, Cuc Phuong National Park area of ​​Ninh Binh province … In the highland district Quan Hoa, in addition to the drawings on Mount Pa Ti on the bank of the Ma River near Hoi Xuan town, recently discovered some more drawings on the Pa Phùng range in Phu Nghiem commune. Together with two researchers on history – folklore Ha Nam Ninh in Ba Thuoc district and Pham Van Cuong in Quan Hoa district, we arrived at the foot of Pa Phien mountain. Right along the inter-communal road leading up to Vinh Quang Ho tourist area of ​​Phu Nghiem commune, the mountain with another name translated from Thai into Kinh language is “Nui Ong” with a high cliff of hundreds of meters. Because we were entangled in the luxuriant wood canopy that obscured the view of the paintwork, we had to move to the luong forest of the people quite far away. From a distance of hundreds of meters, but using the zoom camera lens close, still clearly recognized the red paint on the high, located about 50m from the ground. Although not really sharp in terms of art, but with the naked eye, we can also recognize that this is a picture of 2 people holding hands, one big and one smaller. The size of each “person” is about the size of adult gloves, the head is simply a round shape, without eyes – nose – mouth, and hands and feet are clear, but do not draw in detail each finger, toes. About 500 meters away from the way the birds fly, a “prehistoric picture” with richer drawings has been seen by local people for many generations on the Pa Ter mountain range in Cham village, Xuan Phu commune (old). It has now been merged into Phu Nghiem commune. In Thai, Pa Tém means “Nui Ve”, or mountain with drawings. The name of the mountain range since ancient times no one knows, perhaps also comes from these red frescoes. Standing on the right bank of the Ma River, pictures on the cliffs can be seen right on the left bank of the river about a few hundred meters away. Although being blurred by the natural factors over many generations, it is not difficult to recognize 4 figures of people in the state of walking quite quickly, the tallest figure of the second person is about 40cm, the remaining 3 people. 30cm high. Approximately 1 meter away is a picture of a red animal quite clearly, with long legs equivalent to the body. There is also a red line between the people and the animal, but is blurred, and it is difficult to recognize the specific shape. The position of the lines is also about 10m from the edge of the river, on a smooth cliff, it is difficult for anyone to get up. According to Pham Quang That, 71-year-old Thai ethnic group, former Chairman of the Veterans Association of Quan Hoa district, who was born and raised in the Cham village – right next to the Pa Tém mountain range since childhood: We grew up and saw the features This drawing already. My grandfather said, from previous lives, he said he grew up seeing these red pictures. When we were a child, we were breeding buffaloes on the banks of the Ma River. During the dry season, we still swam to the other side, competing with each other to throw stones and pebbles to see who threw the closest high to the painting. Many locals also told us that, when it rains, the wet the cliffs become, the clearer and redder the lines are. The problem is, on a steep cliff, about 50m high, how can the ancients come up to draw? Are the drawings from prehistoric times, when the cliffs were still low, after geological changes or earthquakes and then emerged as high as today? What kind of message do the owners of the paintings belong to, what message do they leave to the next generation? What is the red material depicting with something that still does not fade for hundreds, even thousands of years? And many other questions are still unresolved mysteries that need to be studied and explained on the scientific basis. Some scientific explanations According to researchers, the more primitive the brush strokes, the more ancient the ability of the owner of the strokes in time to us. “Regarding the history of the Muong Ca Da land – where there are the above-mentioned murals, although this is now the area where Thai people live, in ancient times, the whole area includes districts of Ba Thuoc, Quan Hoa, Quan Son .. is living by the Xa people (one branch is the Kho Mu people today). Together with the delegation of Associate Professor, Dr. Nguyen Lan Cuong – a leading expert in archeology and archeology in Vietnam, I discovered Ma Xa cave not far from this Pa Tém mountain, and discovered the corporal remains according to custom. Xa people about 16,000 years ago. Many other caves have been discovered on the cliffs in Quan Hoa, Quan Son and Ba Thuoc districts also quite a lot, with the remains buried in the Xa style. Thus, in addition to the assessment that the drawings are of the Thai people, it is not excluded that the above mysterious “pictures” are of the Xa people who used to live here “- shared researcher Ha Nam Ninh. Mr. Cao Bang Nghia, a researcher of Thai culture in Quan Hoa district also wondered: “The name of Pa Ti mountain, which means“ Nui Ve ”, has existed since ancient times, the red paintings we have been approaching for decades. before. The drawing on Pa Phùng mountain was only recently known because bushes were growing around, and lying on high. There are still many mysteries that have not been decoded, cannot confirm when the drawing dates back, possibly thousands or even thousands of years ago. Observed with the naked eye, we perceive that this is a drawing made of red material, not the stone carving station. So what is the drawing with that substance that will not fade? In fact, the cliffs with this drawing are all oriented to the west and southwest, so the intensity of sunlight in the afternoon is very great, not to mention rain, wind, weathered rocks … Not long ago , when we showed the photo to cultural researcher Hoang Tuan Pho, he considered that the drawing material could be “earth king”. This is a red, iron-rich soil that was often mixed with some minerals and resin to paint in the ancients. It can penetrate deep into the grain, last a long time. Through research, in China, Indonesia and some Southeast Asian countries, scientists have also discovered many prehistoric murals on cliffs quite similar to those in Quan Hoa district. If so, what message did the ancients leave? According to researcher Ha Nam Ninh’s speculation, based on the drawing of two people holding hands on Pa Phep mountain, it is possible that the ancients expressed the desire to love couples, maybe this is the group kissing period. moving to the progressive stage, marking the breakup of the cave habitats, the activities of maintaining the outdated pair of kissing pants ?. Another comment is that, after seeing the photos we took, researcher Hoang Tuan Pho said that the picture of 4 people and an animal on Pa Tém mountain could reflect an old hunt. All of the above explanations are only conjecture and deductive. If there are petrographic research, analysis, materials and drawing dating and the participation of leading scientists, it is possible to decipher many unexplored mysteries. The legend of Pa Tém mountain painting In the process of finding a solution to the mysterious mural, we also collected folk tales related to the painting on Pa Tém mountain. This is a story in Thai language, about the story of 4 people and beasts on a cliff, passed by word of mouth in the form of folk literature, so no one knows since when. Researcher Cao Bang Nghia is a local Thai ethnic minority, so he previously collected, recorded and could read every sentence. The content of the legend is translated as follows: In the olden days, in the area of ​​Muong Moc and Muong Sang (in Son La province), there was a man who created the muong as Chu Sang. He married A Giam in the Trung Son (Quan Hoa) region today, after giving birth a girl with a beauty of diving fish, inclined to tilt the water. Due to the bad time, Chu Sang fell in love with his daughter and wanted to marry him. People in Muong objected to boycott and not allow them to live. Chu Sang built a raft, with his daughter – also a wife, a servant and a dog, who went to the river to live in. Heaven saw that Chu Sang’s work was unlawful, so he punished the flood to wash the raft. The raft continued to go down the Ma River, to the Mo Tom area of ​​the Cham village, Phu Nghiem commune, the river changed river so the raft drifted into the cliffs of the Pa Tém range. This is the king of the Dragon King, so a voice can be heard from the cliff: If you and your family want to live, give up that bad idea, otherwise I will sink the raft immediately !. Mr. Chu Sang hurriedly took gold, silver, and jewels to throw in the river for Dragon King and asked for his life but still did not want to change his mind. The Dragon King refused to release Mr. Chu Sang and caused the swirling water to gradually sink the raft, the daughter, the servant and the dog were submerged in the Ma River. Regretting his actions to cause disaster, before the raft drowned, Mr. Chu Sang asked Long Vuong to be painted on the cliff of animals and family members to pass on to the next generation. After finishing the painting, the raft and the Chu Sang muong were also pressed deeply into the water stream. The verses of this passage are memorized by many locals: Frankly shabby / Frustrated shabby / Shagged shaggy howl. Translated into: Line one drawing a picture of her / Line two drawing pictures / Drawing pictures of the midwife and maids / Drawing a dog with closed ears, a big mouth, and standing ears. The pictures on the cliffs are completely consistent with the content of hundreds of lines long poetry still circulating locally. According to that content, the second highest person is a muong, the smaller one is probably a girl and the other 2 people behind are servants. The animal not far away was the dog that was carrying. However, both researchers Ha Nam Ninh and Cao Bang Nghia expressed the viewpoint: This is just a legend story, possibly after a long time of frescoes, which were composed by folk to explain the drawings. available that they observe every day.

On his personal page, MC Huyen Trang, also known as Mu Tat, released a series of sexy swimsuit photos that attracted attention on social networks. Along with that, she wittyly wrote: “Sorry, brother Chang went to the beach again ..” In the photo, female MC VTV chose a tight one-piece swimsuit, deeply piercing the waist and chest, showing off her full body curves. Not only possessing a slim body, Huyen Trang confidently “acts deeply” in front of the camera lens like a professional female model. No matter what angle she poses in, the young female MC still attracts the audience’s eyes. This set of her quickly reached nearly 10,000 likes, more than a hundred comments from the audience. MC Huyen Trang was born in 1993, known by the nickname Mu Tat. She is a beautiful MC, featured in the program Happy Lunch. With a youthful and dynamic lead style, Mu Tat is very much in love with VTV6’s audience. In addition to the young MC image, Mu Tat is a photo model, an actor who is active in showbiz world. She often chooses sexy, sexy styles, releases many sets of photos that attract “thousand hearts”. In addition, Mu Tat has appeared in many famous films and most recently the movie “Labyrinth”. In the film, she plays the character of a young lady who plays Dong Lan stone drug with a stubborn and devastating personality. However, when it comes to Mu Tat, many audiences still love and remember the beautiful, radiant image when she stands on stage as an MC.

In front of the camera, a girl held an iced latte in her hand, trying to pose nonchalantly. Another girl was annoyed at her boyfriend because she had not taken a satisfactory photo. Not at the professional studio, this is the scene that takes place at the newly opened Patina cafe in January in Bangkok’s old town, according to Nikkei Asia. Searching by hashtag on Instagram, hundreds of images of young Thai people in stylish outfits can be seen, leaning over antique furniture or posing “virtual life” under crystal chandeliers. According to the author, although the quality of the drink is quite poor, the Patina Café still attracts photographers and young people who love to rush in on weekends. Photo: Chris Schalkx. Similar scenes take place at many of the most upscale cafes across Thailand. At the cafe a block away from Patina, everyone waited anxiously for their turn to pose at the fun graffiti at the entrance. The photos are then edited and posted on social media. The “cafehopping” trend in Thailand is like a sport. Every weekend, thousands of young Thai people with photographic equipment flock to Bangkok’s cafes to check-in in a variety of styles. Some go to six cafes a day, creating a series of check-in moments as if there was an underground race to see who was the first to discover the new “virtual living” location. The leaders of this race become “cafe influencer” and can receive a large amount of money for advertising posts on Instagram. The image is often found in cafes throughout Bangkok. Photo: Chris Schalkx Nowadays, cafes in Thailand are as much as street food. There are new shops open on the street almost every week. Small breweries and coffee testers sprouted like mushrooms. Home-grown coffee is also gaining popularity again, with specialty kiosks and home delivery services from small-scale farms in Thailand’s northern mountainous regions. However, what attracts customers is mainly the eye-catching in the layout, not the quality of the coffee. Many shops advertise beautiful photo corners or “zodiac” hours to have satisfactory photos posted online. Some places also arrange photo booths to attract customers. Many people can go to many cafes during the day to have beautiful photos posted online. Photo: @mimitober. Based on the crowd’s reaction, this advertising tactic seems to be quite effective. Eric Chan, co-owner of the famous Sarnies coffee shop in Bangkok, said: “I think it’s great that influencers in the ‘cafehopping’ world make cafes more popular”. However, some shop owners sighed when asked about their feelings before this trend. Natruja Threekhunwatana, manager of The Somchai in Thonglor, one of Bangkok’s trendiest neighborhoods, said: “When we opened it, everyone came in eagerly. They carry both suitcases of clothes and change in the toilet. It’s hard to manage. We don’t even have tables available for new guests. After that, we decided to ban taking photos for a while. Steven Lim, who co-owns the Luka cafe in the Sathorn district, often sees the same scene. “Even shopping websites secretly take photos at my shop. They brought both the truck and the model, ”he recalls. It is undeniable that Thailand’s coffee culture is developing very quickly. But for many young people here, having a “virtual live” wallpaper posted on social networks is still more important than enjoying and appreciating the taste of the drink.

Illustration of lightning hitting Earth 4 billion years ago.

However, according to geologists, lightning strikes are just as important as meteorites to create perfect conditions for life on Earth.

Scientists believe that the minimum amount of minerals present on early Earth was caused by billions of lightning strikes.

Detect important minerals

A study published in Nature Communications led by scientist Benjamin Hess of the School of Earth and Environment, at the University of Leeds (UK) looked at the possibility that lightning could contribute to life.

The scientists found that life could develop on Earth-like planets through the same mechanism at any time if the atmospheric conditions were right.

Hess et al. Studied an exceptionally large and primitive fulgurite sample. This is a rock created when lightning strikes the ground. This model was formed when lightning struck a house in Glen Ellyn, Illinois (USA) in 2016 and donated to the Geology department at the nearby Wheaton College.

The Leeds researchers were initially interested in how fulgurite was formed, but were later intrigued when they discovered that there was an unusual amount of a phosphorus mineral called schreibersite in the sample at Glen Ellyn.

Phosphorus is essential for life and plays an important role in all life processes from movement to growth and reproduction. Phosphorus has been present on Earth since infancy and is in minerals that cannot be dissolved in water, however, schreibersite can.

Mr. Hess is a graduate student at Yale University, Connecticut (USA), said, “Many people believe that life on Earth originates from shallow surface waters according to the famous” small warm pond “concept of the house. Darwin Science ”.

“Most models of how life might form on the Earth’s surface show that meteors carry small amounts of schreibersite.

Our research found a relatively large amount of shreibersite in fulgurite “- he said -” Lightning hits the Earth regularly, which proves that phosphorus is necessary for the origin of life on the Earth’s surface not only. rely on asteroid collisions.

Perhaps more importantly, this also means that the formation of life on another Earth could still take place long after meteoric collisions became rare.

The phosphorus minerals produced by the lightning bolts exceeded those from meteorites when Earth was about 3.5 billion years old (the age of the earliest known microscopic fossils), the team estimated. That underscores the importance of lightning to life on Earth.

Furthermore, lightning bolts are much less destructive than meteorite collisions, meaning they are less likely to interfere with fragile evolutionary paths in which life can
develope.

The fulgurite was excavated in Glen Ellyn, Illinois (USA).

The role of lightning quantity

Lightning is also a topic of interest to scientists when thinking about life on Earth in the early days because it leads to the production of gases like nitrous oxide that played a role in the origin of life. .

Hess and his other researchers used this existing research to investigate and review the rate of lightning strikes on early Earth. Today, we have 560 million lightning strikes a year.

Meanwhile, early Earth, this number was from 1 to 5 billion per year, of which 100 million to 1 billion lightning strikes the ground. Over a billion years, lightning strikes can reach 1 trillion and generate a lot of phosphorus.

In the early days, lightning struck more on Earth because there was more carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. Carbon dioxide contributes to global temperatures and the higher the temperature, the more intense and frequent the storms are, Hess said.

“Carbon dioxide levels soared on Earth early after a Mars-sized object crashed into Earth and created the Moon 4.5 billion years ago. This also releases a lot of gas from inside the Earth, like carbon dioxide, which then gets trapped in the Earth’s atmosphere and leads to more lightning, ”explained Hess.

The fulgurite fragment is found in Glen Ellyn, Illinois (USA).

Expert review

Dr., Associate Professor of Geochemistry Jason Harvey and Professor of Geology and Structural Construction Sandra Piazolo at Leeds University’s School of Earth and Environment advised Mr. Hess on the above research project.

“The initial meteor bombardment was a one-time event in the Solar System,” said Dr. Harvey. When the planets reach their mass, the additional distribution of phosphorus from the meteorites becomes negligible.

On the other hand, lightning is not a one-off event, the elements necessary for the formation of life can thus be transferred to the surface of a planet. This means that life can appear on Earth-like planets at any given time.

Meanwhile, Professor Piazolo said: “The above interesting research opens the door to some future paths when searching for and analyzing in depth new fulgurite in the early Earth-like environment, analyzing The effect of heating on other minerals is to realize similar characteristics.

There is also a further analysis of this particularly well preserved fulgurite to determine the extent of the physical and chemical processes within it ”.

“All these studies will help to improve our understanding of the importance of fulgurite in changing the chemical environment of the Earth over time” – Professor Piazolo added.
