Tai Chi & Diabetes: Serenity for a Complex Disease | Diabetes Blog ...
Tai chi is a self-paced form of stretching that incorporates a series of movements that are slow in mannerism. Each movement performed flows into the next to ensure the body is continuously moving in a gentle fashion. There are many variations of tai chi depending upon the style which an individual is practicing, although its overall principle and emphasis is placed on movement. The focus of all tai chi is to promote wellbeing and to ease stress. The intensity of tai chi depends upon the individual?s preference as there are both fast and slow-paced forms of the anti-stress art form. Some forms of tai chi that may be suitable for some are not necessarily suitable for others.
Research as recently as 2008 showed that tai chi can improve blood sugar levels in type 2 diabetics. Two studies were performed by the British Journal of Sports Medicine in which they found that a 12 week program of tai chi had a significant effect in type 2 diabetics, specifically with their T cell activity. The levels of the type 2 diabetics? blood sugar levels fell from roughly 7.59% to 7.16% as long as the diabetic kept with the routine. Thus, it was concluded that participating in tai chi is definitely beneficial to type 2 diabetics given the amount of rigorous and vigorous, yet serene, movements associated with the exercise. The study also noted that when combined with Qigong, an energetic therapy, there were even more dramatic results in improved insulin resistance in type 2 diabetics? bodies. Many diabetics who participated in the tai chi study program also noted better sleep and a more vibrant, energetic feeling as well as better immune system responses. Tai chi has also been shown to relieve other forms of chronic pain, improve muscle flexibility and strength as well as relieving symptoms related to depression.
To get started with a tai chi program, there are many different options to take. There are books and DVDs about tai chi which detail the steps necessary to learn the principles behind the movements. There are also tai chi instructors, whose help is recommended especially to type 2 diabetics as they can educate clients on the underlying aspects of each technique and how it improves the effects of the disease on the body. There are often tai chi classes at senior centers, health clubs and fitness centers. Almost all tai chi classes run a period of 12 weeks, which allows a type 2 diabetic to see the benefits of the routine and movements. Individuals can always continue into more advanced sessions of tai chi to obtain a more centered and serene approach to life and overall energetic health.

A Ukrainian-made Zenith-3SL rocket carrying a US-made Intelsat-27 satellite has crashed into the ocean seconds after being launched from a platform in the Pacific Ocean. Ground control lost contact with the rocket.
"); $(".tail_text").show(500); return false; }Sea Launch, the company overseeing the launch, wrote in an official statement on their website that, "approximately 40 seconds after liftoff of the launch of the Intelsat 27 spacecraft, all telemetry was lost indicating a loss of mission."
The spacecraft, built by Boeing Satellite Systems, was launched on a Zenit-3SL launch vehicle on the ocean-based Odyssey launch platform at the Earth?s equator.
Preliminary reports suggested the rocket?s engines stopped automatically because its trajectory was incorrect.
?The first stage of the rocket was supposed to detach two-and-a-half minutes into the flight, but did not. A search operation is underway for the downed rocket.
The rocket?s flight was controlled remotely by a vessel six kilometers from the platform.
The Zenith rocket is joint project between Russian and Ukrainian space companies. The first two stages of the launch vehicle were designed and built in Ukraine, and the third stage is Russian-made.
The Intelsat-27 satellite, made by Boeing, was designed to transmit communication signals over the US and Europe.
The Odyssey floating platform is owned by the Sea Launch corporation. Previous launches at the platform have been successful. In April 2012, a similar Zenith-3SL rocket sent the Eutelsat W5A satellite into space.

Hagel emerges with solid Dem support for Pentagon
WASHINGTON (AP) ? Bruised and battered, Chuck Hagel emerged from his grueling confirmation hearing with solid Democratic support for his nomination to be President Barack Obama's next defense secretary and increasing Republican opposition to a former GOP colleague.
Mathematically, Hagel has the edge as he looks to succeed Defense Secretary Leon Panetta as the nation's 24th Pentagon chief, with Democrats holding a 14-12 advantage on the Senate Armed Services Committee.
That vote, which could come as early as next Thursday, looks increasingly like a straight party-line count as committee member and Republican Sen. Roy Blunt said Friday he will oppose the nomination.
"Senator Hagel's answers before the committee were simply too inconsistent, particularly as they related to Iran and Israel," said the Missouri lawmaker. "The idea that we can contain a nuclear Iran and his view that we should not have unilateral sanctions are just wrong and are too dangerous for us to try."
In fact, Hagel corrected his statement about containment of Iran and said all options, including military action, should be on the table to stop Iran from acquiring a nuclear weapon.
While Blunt announced his opposition, he signaled he would not support any effort to block the nomination, a looming question as Democrats have the votes to confirm Hagel in the full Senate but would need five GOP senators to end a filibuster.
Senate Armed Services Committee Chairman Carl Levin, D-Mich., expressed optimism about Hagel's prospects after nearly eight hours of testimony Thursday.
"I think his answers were honest and forthright and he did very well," Levin told reporters. "I hope that there will be some, who maybe were skeptical but who are undecided before this hearing, will maybe now look at him in a more favorable light. But I think there are a whole lot of folks who basically decided before the hearing that they were going to vote against him."
Hagel struggled at times as GOP senators hammered him on issues ranging from his support for Israel, opposition to Iran, stand on Hamas and Hezbollah and his backing for a group that advocates the elimination of nuclear weapons.
They repeatedly pressed him on past statements, votes and even letters he declined to sign. Refusing to show any frustration or anger, Hagel defended his record.
The former two-term Republican senator from Nebraska described his views as mainstream and closely aligned with those of Obama, the Democrat who nominated him. But several GOP members of the committee sought to portray him as radical and unsteady. Sen. Deb Fischer, R-Neb., called his ideas "extreme" and "far to the left" of Obama.
Hagel said he believes America "must engage ? not retreat ? in the world" and insisted that his record is consistent on that point.
He pointed to Iran and its nuclear ambitions as an example of an urgent national security threat that should be addressed first by attempting to establish dialogue with Iranian rulers, although he said he would not rule out using military force.
"I think we're always on higher ground in every way ? international law, domestic law, people of the world, people of the region to be with us on this ? if we have ... gone through every possibility to resolve this in a responsible, peaceful way, rather than going to war," he said.
He pushed back on the notion ? first raised by one of his harshest Republican critics, Sen. James Inhofe of Oklahoma ? that he favors a policy of appeasement.
"I think engagement is clearly in our interest," Hagel told Sen. Saxby Chambliss, R-Ga., who denounced the idea of negotiating with a "terrorist state."
"That's not negotiation," Hagel said. "Engagement is not appeasement. Engagement is not surrender."
The nominee's fiercest exchange came with Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., a fellow Vietnam veteran and onetime close friend. Politics and Hagel's evolving opposition to the Iraq war caused a split between the two men that was on full display.
McCain suggested that Hagel and his critics were not quibbling over small matters.
"They are not reasonable people disagreeing; they are fundamental disagreements. Our concerns pertain to the quality of your professional judgment and your worldview on critical areas of national security," he said.
McCain pressed Hagel on whether he was right or wrong about his opposition to President George W. Bush's decision to send an extra 30,000 troops to Iraq in 2007 at a point when the war seemed in danger of being lost. Hagel, who voted to authorize military force in Iraq, later opposed the conflict, comparing it to Vietnam and arguing that it shifted the focus from Afghanistan.
"Were you right? Were you correct in your assessment?" McCain asked.
"I would defer to the judgment of history to sort that out," Hagel said as the two men talked over each other.
"The committee deserves your judgment as to whether you were right or wrong about the surge," McCain insisted.
Unable to elicit a simple response, McCain said the record should show that Hagel refused to answer. And he made it clear that he would have the final word ? with his vote, which he said would be influenced by Hagel's refusal to answer yes or no.
"I think history has already made a judgment about the surge, sir, and you're on the wrong side of it," he said.
Responding to criticism from outside GOP-leaning groups, Hagel repeated his regrets about using the term "Jewish lobby" to refer to pro-Israel groups. He said he should have used another term and should not have said those groups have intimidated members of the Senate into favoring actions contrary to U.S. interests.
"I'm sorry and I regret it," Hagel said. "On the use of 'intimidation,' I should have used 'influence,' I think would have been more appropriate."
At one point, Hagel mistakenly said the Obama policy toward Iran is "containment" even though the former senator has said all options, including military force, should be on the table. He was handed a note and corrected himself.
Hagel, 66, would be the lone Republican in Obama's Cabinet, the first Vietnam veteran to be defense secretary and the first enlisted man to take the post.

Russian court orders Pussy Riot videos be banned from Internet
MOSCOW (Reuters) - Russian punk rockers Pussy Riot on Wednesday lost an appeal against an Internet ban on their music videos, including one showing a protest song for which three band members were jailed.
A Moscow City Court upheld a lower court's November decision deeming the videos "extremist". Wednesday's ruling that meant that four Pussy Riot videos were banned from the web.
The videos were still available on sites hosted outside Russia, including the Google-owned YouTube.
The court rejected an appeal by one band member, Yekaterina Samutsevich, who said the ban violated freedom of speech.
"I think it's illegal - that is obvious," Samutsevich, 30, said outside the court. She said she would lodge a new appeal, but the ruling meant the videos must be removed from Russian websites.
Samutsevich and two bandmates were convicted of "hooliganism motivated by religious hatred" for their "punk prayer" - which called on the Virgin Mary to rid Russia of President Vladimir Putin - in Christ the Saviour cathedral, where the Russian Orthodox Church holds its main Easter and Christmas services.
She was freed in October when her sentence was suspended on appeal, but Nadezhda Tolokonnikova and Maria Alyokhina remain in prison.
The band said they were protesting the close ties between the government and the church, whose leader praised Putin during his successful campaign for a March 2012 presidential election.
The lower court judge said the videos contained "words and actions which humiliate various social groups based on their religion" as well as calls for mutiny and "mass disorder" and that they could ignite racial and religious hatred.
Kremlin critics called the jailing of Pussy Riot part of a drive to silence dissent and the United States and other Western countries called the punishment excessive.
Putin rejected the criticism, saying the feelings of Russian Orthodox and other believers must be protected.
