Mozart over Beethoven

Mozart over Beethoven.
Wide over narrow.
Intelligence over beauty.
Grace over judgement.
Rough over smooth.
Night over day.
Water over wine.
Paper over screen.
Pictures over Words.
Heat over cold.
Belief over belief.
Mountains over beach.
Stars over sun.
Jesus over religion.
Silence over noise.
Straight over bow.
Love over everything.

Collison forces during distance running

Finally, a really important paper (at least for me ;-)

Here we show that habitually barefoot endurance runners often land on the fore-foot (fore-foot strike) before bringing down the heel, but they sometimes land with a flat foot (mid-foot strike) or, less often, on the heel (rear-foot strike).

The forefoot has lower collision forces! while the forces are excessive according to an earlier study. These new studies support the recent development of a running shoes (currently under development in Magdeburg) with no heel Continue reading Collison forces during distance running →

Tear Down the Walls

What happens when looking at that video?

The neuroanatomy view this week in Nature

we predict[…] a macroscopic signal visible to functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) in humans. We then looked for this signal as participants explored a virtual reality environment, mimicking the rats’ foraging task: fMRI activation and adaptation showing a speed-modulated six-fold rotational symmetry in running direction. The signal was found in a network of entorhinal/subicular, posterior and medial parietal, lateral temporal and medial prefrontal areas. Continue reading Tear Down the Walls →
