Ac Milan

I'll tell you about the football club I love. Ac Milan is one of the biggest football clubs in the world. This club came from Italy in the city of milan. I've always loved this club, a lot of players that I like, including Paolo Maldini. Paolo Maldini is AC Milan legend, during his career he only strengthen rosseneri alone. And here's a brief history of ac milan.



AC Milan was founded on December 16, 1899, by dialing / Nickname: Rossoneri (Red and Blacks) in accordance with the AC Milan shirt color oversize red and black, or also known as il Diavolo (the Devil). AC Milan Originally founded by a group of British businessmen led by Alfred Edwards. In 1926 construction started on the San Siro stadium construction Rossoneri are supervised directly by the King of Tyre and club president Piero Pirelli. At AC Milan 1945 changed its name to Associazione Calcio Milan, and was carrying keberuntuangan name for Milan, since renamed the Rossoneri celebrated their first Scudetto in 1950/51 after 44 years of grazing without a degree.

In 1963 the Rossoneri lifted the trophy 'European Champion Clubs' after beating Benfica at Wembley stadium with a 2-1 victory. In 1969 to lift the two-time Cup. In the 1980s Milan altered by Silvio Berlusconi to appoint Arrigo Sacchi as coach and brought the Dutch trio of Ruud Gullit, Marco van Basten and Frank Rijkaard who made ​​the Rossoneri won the European Cup in 1991/92 and took home the title of Serie A.

 In 1993 the Rossoneri failed to lift the Champions Tropy and ranks second in the finals when they lost the UEFA Champions League in the stadium Olympique de Marseille, but Milan immerse FC Barcelona the following year 1994. In November 2001 Sacchi was appointed Milan coach took another Scudetto and two Champions League titles. Sacchi is a protege Carlo Ancelotti.



In 2003 Milan lifted the European Cup in England. Four years later the Rossoneri redeem their defeat on penalties against Liverpool FC in the 2005 final by beating them in Athens then Milan won the trophy for the seventh time.


In 2010 Milan appoint Massimiliano Allegri as fruitful as his coach and managed to secure the Scudetto in his first season.



In 2012, president of AC Milan took the decision to retire the old players. And Milan began to play young players. Due to lack of experience there, ac Milan have struggled this season because AC Milan just to place 3rd. I think there are some names of young players who look good enough that El Shaarawy and de Sciglio.

Which is Better for Body, Walking or Running?

California, Walking and running are the most popular physical exercise. Various studies conducted to discover which is better effects on the body. Are the conclusions the researchers?

According to the researchers, large or small effect of this practice depends both on purpose to do it. If for example you want to control your weight, then you should run, as quoted by the NY Times.
In a study published in Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise, researchers examined survey data from 15 237 32 215 runners and walkers registered in The National Runners and Walkers' Health Study, a large survey conducted at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, California.
Participants asked for information about weight, waist circumference, diet, and weekly mileage walking or running when they join in this survey. This data was then asked again 6 years later.
As a result, people who exercise almost run leaner compared to those on foot. Over the years, people who ran maintaining body mass and waist circumference they are much better than walking.

Reason ran better in the regulation of body weight than is unclear. However, experts say that running burns more calories per hour than walking.
Another reason is the effect of running on appetite. In a study published in the Journal of Obesity, revealed that pedestrians take about 50 more calories than they burn during a 1 hour walk. While running to consume 200 fewer calories than they burn calories after running for 1 hour.
After each run and walk, runners proved to have increased levels of the hormone peptide YY. This hormone is proven to work to suppress appetite. While the people who walk not have elevated levels of peptide YY, appetite so they stay warm.

However, studies also show that walking can be just as beneficial as running.


"If you plan to walk, but want the same number of calories burned as running, then you have to walk about 1.5 times as much and takes about 2 times longer," said Paul T. Williams, a scientist Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratories.

5 Things to Hate About Sleep Loss

You know lack of sleep can make you grumpy and foggy. You may not know what it can do to your sex life, memory, health, looks, and even ability to lose weight. Here are 10 surprising -- and serious -- effects of sleep loss.


1. Sleepiness Causes Accidents
Sleep deprivation was a factor in some of the biggest disasters in recent history: the 1979 nuclear accident at Three Mile Island, the massive Exxon Valdez oil spill, the 1986 nuclear meltdown at Chernobyl, and others.
But sleep loss is also a big public safety hazard every day on the road. Drowsiness can slow reaction time as much as driving drunk. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration estimates that fatigue is a cause in 100,000 auto crashes and 1,550 crash-related deaths a year in the U.S. The problem is greatest among people under 25 years old.
Studies show that sleep loss and poor-quality sleep also lead to accidents and injuries on the job. In one study, workers who complained about excessive daytime sleepiness had significantly more work accidents, particularly repeated work accidents. They also had more sick days per accident.

2. Sleep Loss Dumbs You Down
Sleep plays a critical role in thinking and learning. Lack of sleep hurts these cognitive processes in many ways. First, it impairs attention, alertness, concentration, reasoning, and problem solving. This makes it more difficult to learn efficiently.
Second, during the night, various sleep cycles play a role in “consolidating” memories in the mind. If you don’t get enough sleep, you won’t be able to remember what you learned and experienced during the day.

3. Sleep Deprivation Can Lead to Serious Health Problems
Sleep disorders and chronic sleep loss can put you at risk for:
Heart disease, Heart attack, Heart failure, Irregular heartbeat, High blood pressure, Stroke, Diabetes
According to some estimates, 90% of people with insomnia -- a sleep disorder characterized by trouble falling and staying asleep -- also have another health condition.

4. Lack of Sleep Kills Sex Drive
Sleep specialists say that sleep-deprived men and women report lower libidos and less interest in sex. Depleted energy, sleepiness, and increased tension may be largely to blame.
For men with sleep apnea, a respiratory problem that interrupts sleep, there may be another factor in the sexual slump. A study published in the Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism in 2002 suggests that many men with sleep apnea also have low testosterone levels. In the study, nearly half of the men who suffered from severe sleep apnea also secreted abnormally low levels of testosterone during the night.

5. Sleepiness Is Depressing
Over time, lack of sleep and sleep disorders can contribute to the symptoms of depression. In a 2005 Sleep in America poll, people who were diagnosed with depression or anxiety were more likely to sleep less than six hours at night.
The most common sleep disorder, insomnia, has the strongest link to depression. In a 2007 study of 10,000 people, those with insomnia were five times as likely to develop depression as those without. In fact, insomnia is often one of the first symptoms of depression.

Insomnia and depression feed on each other. Sleep loss often aggravates the symptoms of depression, and depression can make it more difficult to fall asleep. On the positive side, treating sleep problems can help depression and its symptoms, and vice versa.
