(CTN News) – Cardiovascular training improves mobility, flexibility, endurance, and sleep quality as you age. You can even live longer with cardio! Despite the bad, there is always something good to be found. You can limit your progress with cardio, wear out your joints, and even feel worse with cardio over time. Here are the worst cardio habits that destroy your body after 50, and how to avoid them. Definitely not a good idea. Exercise “no matter what,” but always focus on long-term fitness. Take two steps forward by resting and rehabbing if you have pain or an injury. Pushing through problems, however, may make them worse and cause an even longer absence from training. Running, for example, can be hard on your joints and tendons if you only run on pavement-especially if you’re not trained. To improve your conditioning and give your muscles, joints, and overall progress a break occasionally, it’s far better to use a variety of training methods. You’ll feel the difference … [Read more...] about After 50, These 7 Cardio-Habits Are Destroying Your Body

The Future Of Crypto And Blockchain: Fintech 50 2022
Share to Twitter Share to Linkedin Esteban Castaño TRM LABS Reported by Nina Bambysheva, Michael del Castillo and Steven Ehrlich The cryptophiles are settling into the realities of a bear market, but their recent triumphs should not be lost. A record nine cryptocurrency-focused companies made it onto this year’s Forbes Fintech 50 list–an honor roll of the most innovative private companies in fintech. Collectively, these nine trailblazers have raised $6.5 billion in venture capital, with the lion’s share of that coming within the past 12 months. Leading the pack is billionaire Sam Bankman-Fried’s crypto exchange FTX, which raised $1.5 billion in private funding last year alone, jolting its valuation from $1.2 billion to $25 billion. A $500 million raise this past January took its valuation to $32 billion, making it the third most valuable private fintech headquartered or doing business in the U.S. With its rapidly growing U.S. … [Read more...] about The Future Of Crypto And Blockchain: Fintech 50 2022
Warriors’ Road Woes Can’t Be Solved By Stephen Curry’s 50 Points
(CTN News) – Nothing beats Stephen Curry on a heater in sports. On Wednesday, the 35-year-old Warriors star dominated the Clippers with 50 points. Still, the Warriors lost 134-126, dropping their road record to 7-27. With nine straight losses on the road, the Warriors are 0-21 when trailing after three quarters. I find it hard to believe even when I write those numbers down. In spite of this, the Warriors remain one game ahead of 7-9 seeds in the Western Conference. It may actually be a blessing in disguise for Golden State if that 6-seed holds. As it stands, the Warriors would face the No.3 Grizzlies instead of the Suns in the first round. Despite that, Golden State still has 12 games left, which feels like a season with how tightly packed the Western Conference standings are. Warriors can’t worry about strategic seeding. The team needs to win every game to stay above the play-in line, or even get into the postseason. Currently two games out of a lottery spot, they’ll … [Read more...] about Warriors’ Road Woes Can’t Be Solved By Stephen Curry’s 50 Points
People Over 50: Half The Talent, Half The Market. Ignore At Your Peril.
Share to Twitter Share to Linkedin In this week’s budget , UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak is trying to encourage the 50+ to return to work. He has removed some key financial obstacles, like dramatically raising the country’s lifetime pension contribution cap and the annual tax free contributions allowances. It’s part of the country’s bid to get over half a million older workers back into the UK’s labour force. Almost half the UK’s 53 million adults are over 50 and one survey suggests a majority of them wants to work past age 65. Now, companies are going to have to meet the government halfway - by actually employing them. This requires a big shift in leadership, culture and systems. A growing number of firms are emerging to try help them adapt. 55Redefined is one of them. It seems obvious. Talent strapped companies are struggling to find and retain skilled employees. A plentiful older talent pool that wants to work is finding it hard to get a job. … [Read more...] about People Over 50: Half The Talent, Half The Market. Ignore At Your Peril.

New Utah Law Requires Biological Fathers To Pay 50% Of Mother’s Pregnancy Costs
A new Utah law will require the father of an unborn baby to pay half of the costs of the pregnancy. HB 113 requires that the father of the unborn baby pay 50% of the mother’s insurance premiums during the pregnancy, as well as “pregnancy-related medical costs, including the hospital birth of the child, that are not paid by another person.” If the paternity of the father is questioned, the father will not be required to pay the mother’s expenses until paternity has been established.

Why Billionaires Ken Griffin And Eric Schmidt Are Spending $50 Million On A New Kind Of Scientific Research
Share to Twitter Share to Linkedin ‘Focused Research Organizations’ aim to provide useful information to the scientific community in areas that currently aren’t being served by academia or business. W hen it comes to scientific research, bigger can often be better. A lot of what we know about the world today is thanks to huge, multi-billion dollar projects that involved the work of thousands of scientists. Think the Human Genome Project, or the Large Hadron Collider or the Apollo Program: These were large-scale, focused projects with singular goals in mind, yielding tons of scientific progress on the road to achieving them. Not every scientific problem needs to be solved on this scale, of course. But if you look around the landscape, you don’t see many of these problems being tackled at all. Commercial organizations are generally geared towards the application of scientific discovery with an end goal of making projects for market.

Shah Rukh Khan’s ‘Pathaan’ Earns $135 Million In 50 Days: A Look At The Film’s Politics
Share to Twitter Share to Linkedin Prior to the release of Shah Rukh Khan’s Pathaan , the stage was rather dim for the film and the Indian actor. Not many Hindi films worked since the pandemic-induced shutdown of theatres and Khan had not featured in a single feature film since his last outing - a box office dud that came out in 2018 ( Zero ). The factors made the filmmakers, as well as industry trade experts apprehensive of the box office figures of the new film. All the apprehensions were put to rest on January 25 when Pathaan released to unprecedented and unexpected numbers worldwide, becoming the highest Indian film opener ever. After completing seven weeks at the box office, Pathaan has roughly made worldwide gross earnings of $135 million in 50 days of the release. The Hindi version of the film made nett collections of $68.5 million in India alone. After all these days, the film continues to be screened across 800 screens in India and 135 cinemas … [Read more...] about Shah Rukh Khan’s ‘Pathaan’ Earns $135 Million In 50 Days: A Look At The Film’s Politics
Stripe Raises $6.5 Billion At $50 Billion Valuation, Nearly Half Its Peak
Share to Twitter Share to Linkedin Payments processing giant Stripe announced that it has raised a $6.5 billion funding round at a $50 billion valuation on Wednesday. The new valuation marks the latest in a series of cuts for the Stripe and for unicorns more broadly.
