Baseball, boxing, golf, most sports have scores of movies that fans can debate which is the best of the genre (“Field of Dreams” vs. “Bull Durham”). “Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby” is the undisputed champ in the stock car racing niche thank to a fearless Ricky Bobby (Will Ferrell) who lived by the creed “If you ain’t first, you’re last.” The 2006 film followed Ricky Bobby as he went from a fervently clueless doofus to down on his luck driver to, well, a clueless doofus again, though with a tinge of humility.

Bendable glass is essentially glass that that’s been stretched thin enough and then treated so that it can bend back and forth, without permanently losing its shape. However, making glass thin to the point where it’s flexible is the biggest challenge, according to Mydlak. “We define Ultra thin glass (UTG) by achieving a thickness of below 0.1 mm,” he added..

A French submarine carried out a patrol through the South China Sea as part of efforts by France to challenge Beijing’s sweeping claims in the disputed waters. France’s defence minister Florence Parly tweeted late on Monday that the French nuclear attack submarine meraude and naval support ship Seine sailed through the contentious waters to “affirm that international law is the only rule that is valid, whatever the sea where we sail”. “This extraordinary patrol just completed its passage in the South China Sea,” she wrote.

Glucocorticoids (GCs) are potent regulators of energy metabolism. Chronic GC exposure suppresses brown adipose tissue (BAT) thermogenic capacity in mice, with evidence for a similar effect in humans. Intracellular GC levels are regulated by 11 hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 (11 HSD1) activity, which can amplify circulating GC concentrations.

The Venezuelan Bolivarian Revolution has provoked researchers to find new ways of engaging with the emergence of popular organizations and movements who are highly mobilized and seeking new forms of popular power and the deepening of democratic practices both within the country and for the Latin American region. This research project argues that at the core of the Bolivarian Revolution is an urban revolution in which barrio residents play a key role in the transformation of the country. Drawing on the work of Henri Lefebvre, David Harvey, Neil Smith, Doreen Massey, and Edward Soja, among others, it is argued that a spatial analysis of urban social relations, while usually reserved for the study of capital’s role in producing contemporary cities, also allows research to visibilize how popular organizations act as agents in the production and transformation of urban space in their own right.At the center of this study is the Urban Land Committee movement, which by drawing on what Lefebvre has called ‘lived space’ knowledges, has evolved from an organization that primarily sought land titles for barrio inhabitants to a national movement that is currently pursuing the ‘right to the city’, that is, decision making power over urban space.
