This period of fifty-two years is a source of tradition and meaning in Mayan cultures, and it is only when one reached fifty-two years of age that they were thought to be an elder. However, because the Tzolk’in is not evenly divisible into three hundred and sixty-five days, it takes fifty-two years for the Haab and the Tzolk’in to meet again on the winter solstice. The Haab and the Tzolk’in both have their origin in the winter solstice. The Tzolk’in has no certain correlation to astronomy, but it is often thought that it was constructed to reflect the birthing cycle, or perhaps even the seasonal growth of corn. Just as Tuesday will not always fall on the 2 nd of the month in the modern Gregorian Calendar, the second numbered day will not consistently align with any certain named day of the Tzolk’in. 4 In other words, there are no constructions of weeks, or months in the Tzolk’in since twenty is not evenly divisible by the thirteen numbered days, the names and numbers of the Tzolk’in do not cycle through evenly. ![]() The Tzolk’in consists of thirteen numbered days interlocked with twenty named days that bear the names of Mayan gods. The religious calendar, the Tzolk’in, is a cycle that runs independent of the Haab and Long Count calendars. The demarcations beneath numbers 0-19 are the corresponding Mayan numerals | Courtesy of 3 Depiction of Mayan Hieroglyphs for the K’in of the Winal. For example, at Tikal, one may stand at the top of the Lost World Pyramid and observe the alignment of three seasons with the points of three pyramids in the course of one year. Gradually, over time, temples were built around these staves, forming what appear to be permanent observatories for certain heavenly bodies. The observers were then able to mark and measure the cycles by the time the measured star or planet took to return to its origin. By observation, ancient observers of the sky would mark the positions of heavenly bodies with two staves stuck into the ground. While the Mayan Haab calendar was quite accurate to the duration of one earth year, the methods by which the year was calculated were actually quite primitive. However, the Mayan Haab did not contain the modern convention of weeks or leap years each of the twenty k’in (days) in the winal (month ) had individual names assigned to them. There are only five days in the 19 th winal, constructing a year nearly equivalent to our modernized Gregorian calendar of 365 days. ![]() There are 20 k’in in the winal, and 18 winal in the haab. The first and smallest measure on the calendar is the k’in, or the day next is the winal, which closely aligns with the modern conception of months finally, there is the H aab, or the entire collective calendar year. Like our modern calendar, the secular, or the Haab, calendar is split into three units of measure. The secular astronomical calendar, the Haab, is the Mayan calendar most nearly aligned with our modern conventions (the Gregorian Calendar), since it is based upon a cycle of 365 earth days, while the religious calendar, the Tzolk’in, is 260 earth days and lastly, there is the long count calendar, which cycles every 5,124 cycles of the Haab. These calendars are the secular or political astronomical calendar, the religious or ceremonial calendar, and the long calendar. What most do not know about the Mayan calendar, however, is that there are three of them. Today, when most people think of the Ancient Maya, the first connection that is often made is to their intricate calendar system.

However, the primary pharmacological effect of caffeine is the nonselective antagonism of adenosine A 1 and A 2A receptors (A 1R, A 2AR) 20, 21, 22, 23.Īdenosine can act as an inhibitory modulator of the Central Nervous System (CNS) associated with tiredness and drowsiness 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29. Sports sciences promote nonselective phosphodiesterase (PDE) inhibition 7, 8 and increased calcium mobilization 2, 7, 8 as mechanisms for these ergogenic effects. In rodents, its ergogenic effects are conserved because caffeine increases running time on the treadmill at constant 16, 17 and accelerated speeds 18, 19. Caffeine increases endurance 1, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, intermittent 7, 13, 14 and resistance 4, 15 exercise in humans. The natural plant alkaloid caffeine (1,3,7-trimethylxantine) is one of the most common ergogenic substances for physical activity practitioners and athletes 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10. Furthermore, caffeine modified the exercising metabolism in an A 2AR-dependent manner, and A 2AR was paramount for exercise thermoregulation. Furthermore, the ergogenic effects of caffeine were abrogated in global and forebrain A 2AR KO mice, showing that the antagonism of A 2AR in forebrain neurons is responsible for the ergogenic action of caffeine. Moreover, Caffeine and SCH 58621 were ergogenic, that is, they increased V̇O 2max, running power, and critical power, showing that A 2AR antagonism is ergogenic. Caffeine and SCH 58621 were psychostimulant. We also evaluated the estrous cycle and infrared temperature immediately at the end of the exercise test. ![]() We administered caffeine (15 mg/kg, i.p., nonselective) and SCH 58261 (1 mg/kg, i.p., selective A 2AR antagonist) 15 min before the open field and exercise tests. Forty-two adult females (20.0 ± 0.2 g) and 40 male mice (23.9 ± 0.4 g) from a global and forebrain A 2AR knockout (KO) colony ran an incremental exercise test with indirect calorimetry (V̇O 2 and RER). We now investigated A 2AR as a possible ergogenic mechanism through pharmacological and genetic inactivation. The adenosinergic hypothesis is promising due to the pharmacology of caffeine, a nonselective antagonist of adenosine A 1 and A 2A receptors. However, its mechanism of action is still controversial. Dore et al.Caffeine is one of the most used ergogenic aid for physical exercise and sports. ![]() This structure is Protein Data Bank ID 3RFMġ. Examining how caffeine binds and blocks the adenosine A 2A receptor can help to inform the future design of new adenosine A 2A receptor drugs. Caffeine (yellow) binds within a cavity formed between the membrane spanning segments. it has seven transmembrane spanning segments. The structure of the adenosine A 2A receptor is typical of a GPCR i.e. ![]() GPCRs are a family of membrane proteins that respond to a variety of extracellular chemical compounds to activate a range of specific responses inside the cell. The adenosine A 2A receptor is a G-protein coupled receptor (GPCR). This is the structure of the adenosine-A 2A receptor in complex with caffeine 1. Chemicals similar to caffeine but with improved properties and increased specificity of action have the potential to be used as treatments for these debilitating diseases. Together these outcomes lead to many of the effects that we associate with caffeine consumption such as increased alertness, shakiness and an elevated heart rate.Īdenosine receptors have also been implicated in a number of neurodegenerative diseases including Parkinson’s disease and Alzheimer’s. An additional knock on effect of reduced adenosine signaling is the release of adrenaline from the adrenal gland. Adenosine receptor blockade disrupts the normal action of adenosine, a neurotransmitter with a role in wakefulness and locomotion. Regardless of how you chose to consume your caffeine, its stimulant properties are the product of a common mode of action: namely the blockade of adenosine receptors in the brain.

Motion Sensor Switch Hands-free lighting. A classic example of dumbing down instructions too far, raising more questions instead of making things easier. But they could have made it totally foolproof by being upfront in the instructions about how it uses the wires. This actually makes for a very simple and almost foolproof installation. Provided your box really is properly grounded, connect both grounds (green & bare) to the box, connect hot to one black, switched hot to the other black, and you're done. It might put it below the normal threshold of a GFCI, but I wouldn't count on it. While using ground in place of neutral is not normally permitted, it is still allowed within certain limitations, and it avoids the problem of either (a) requiring a neutral in the switch box which many boxes simply don't have or (b) running a small amount of current through the switched line when off, which works fine on incandescent bulbs but on LEDs will often result in either flashing lights or a very low constant glow. That puts in the relatively safe range as far as current running over the ground wire. According to Q&A on, the switch uses < 1 watt when "off".

Repeat this until you’ve captured every earthling, throw them into the rocket at the end of the stage, and exit the level. The arrow on your HUD will lead to the nearest earthling, and once you find them, all you have to do is chuck jars at them until they get trapped inside one, and then walk over to pick them up. The game itself is split into fifteen stages, with each one having the goal of finding and capturing every earthling. ![]() There’s also a “Lil’ Kids Mode”, which makes it impossible to die, but ends the game about a third of the way into the game. The splitscreen feature from the original game doesn’t return, however, so both players will basically be bound together by the screen.

Even worse, the Funkapotumus, the leader of Funkotron and source of all funk, has gone into hiding, draining the funk and color from the planet. The bad news is that a thousand earthlings or so managed to stow away in their two-seater ship, and now the earthlings running all over the planet.
