"Farmers are set to trial the use of methane suppressing supplement Bovaer®
News of Arla's methane suppressing supplement trial has sparked debate, with the NFU admitting that 'questions remain' over the impact of long-term usage.

The dairy co-operative's new project will take place alongside retailers Morrisons, Tesco and Aldi, as well as thirty farms, which will trial feed additive Bovaer®.

Arla said the powdered supplement had the potential to reduce enteric methane emissions from cows on average by 27%.

Hikaru Nakamura the chess player regular runs marathons and has a pretty good time.

Being good at both chess and running is basically the ability to pick up things fast and have the drive and discipline to continue learning at a craft so you get better. Since Hikaru is a chess genius and has the discipline to maintain it especially in his competitive field, he would be able to also apply it to get good at other things. He won't outrun Kenyans but it shows why people who are "geniuses" are not all idiot savants like stereotyped.

Likewise if you want to enter the D1 football program or whatever at college, you have to be disciplined. No way around it. We constantly hear about the failed jocks who got cut from the team before they even made it to college. So if you were able to play for college, you must be damned disciplined, competitive and probably very quick on the feet. Team sports mean a lot of teamwork too. You don't have time to bully nerds, you have a game to win because if not then there goes your scholarship. These sort of skills are vital for most jobs since there are only a few jobs that need quant trading or something.

Mao wrote an entire essay on why fitness is important. When you think about it, all those "nerds" in china who were forced to actually use their hands to work the fields during the cultural revolution were able to come up with great ideas that helped China become the modern entity it is today. In contrast, today a lot of smart nerds today in China do not show the same drive or brilliance the older generation had because they never needed to use their hands.

"Mao Ning: There is no so-called Chinese police service stations overseas at all. China’s law enforcement agencies carry out cooperation in international law enforcement in strict accordance with international law, fully respects other countries’ laws and judicial sovereignty and safeguard the lawful rights and interests of the suspects.

The economic ties and trade between China and the US are win-win in nature. Over the years, Chinese companies’ investments have made important contributions to boosting employment and economic growth in the US. To politicize the issue of trade and investment and overstretch the concept of security runs contrary to the principle of market economy and international trade rules, undermines international confidence in the US market and does no good to the US’s economic growth. Relevant people in the US should stop smearing and making groundless accusations against China. Instead, they need to do more to facilitate cooperation between China and the US.  "
