Time Zone, Twitter, and Heart

Keeping fit – what part of your body will thank it to you? And: A popular bird has a new owner… and new problems.

 

UTC -6…  forever

Mexico returned its usual time zone. It means 6 hours less than universal Time Coordinated (UTC). This also means 1 hour less than Peruvian Time(PET).

During Northern Summer, Mexico used to move its clock 1 hour forward. This is not going to happen anymore. Mexican Senators Chamber stopped a tradition that began in 1996.

That summer, Mexico’s Government added 60 minutes to its local time. The promise was saving more energy – 26 years later, it was discovered that goal was never reached.

Mexico owns two time zones:

• Central Time, which holds the most of the republic, including Mexico City. This is similar to the Central Time in the United States.
• The another is Baja California Peninsula Time. It’s also known as Pacific Time or PT. It’s 7 hours less than UTC. This is 2 hours less than PET.

By the way, Peru tried to have a summer time in 1987. It promised to save energy. The idea was furtherly dismissed because it didn’t save any energy. Also, many people woke up inclusive when it was nightly sky.

Does your country move the clock in the summer? Tell me on my social media. Find me as @nelsonsullana, YouTube inclusive.

 

Worry tweet

The blue bird lost the half of its employees. The billionaire elon Musk recently bought the micro blogging service. Musk paid 44 billion dollars for the purchase.

However, the new administration entered with new rules:

• First, banning the fake news accounts.
• Second, stopping loses, estimated in 4 million dollars per day.
• Third, engaging the advertisers again, trying to ignore the advocacy lobbies.
• Fourth,cutting job positions.

Twitter, the key division of Twitter Incorporated, was created in San Francisco, California. It was launched on March 21^st, 2006. Currently, it joins over 340 million users around the world. To have a perspective, Facebook is still atop: it has 2.9 billion active users. This is around 40% of world’s population.

The problem for Twitter is the future for 2024.  It only expects around 1.5% in users growth.

There is much disappointment after the elon Musk’s decision. And the feeling goes around the globe. Many brokers still remain skeptical.

Others are looking for another signal. Maybe Musk’s target is not Twitter, but X. This plans to be the greatest application in the world. There  is not much information about X.

By the way, I’m a Twitter user since 2012. Other FACTORTIERRA Media accounts on Twitter are @factortierra for science, arts, education, tourism, and technology. Also @chulucanasgym for bodybuilding and fitness stories.

Tell me what you think about. I’m @nelsonsullana on Twitter, as well as the other social media.

 

Protect your heart

Are you still considering to fee a membership? Do it now – your heart will thank it to you.

Cardiovascular diseases are the deadliest across the planet. We are talking about 17.3 million people. This is the number of who lose the fight. It equals the half of actual Peruvian population.

By 2030, specialists expect an increase. Around 23.7 million may lose the fight.

Those data come from Pan-American Health Organization.

How to avoid to be part of these numbers? The first answer is physical activity. Cardiologist recommend to spend 150 minutes per month. Obviously, that’s the minimum, but it could save your life. If you want better results, spend 200 minutes per month.

World Health Organization recommends 30 daily minutes of physical activity. It may prevent a lot of health risks.

In my personal case, I combine power and aerobic routines. It keeps me in-shape. But, coming out from a family with heart diseases history, that’s not a hobby in my case. That’s my personal duty. Make it yours too.

Breast Cancer, Hackers, and Sullana Talents

be careful about the security of your social media. Also,  culture from Sullana impacts the world.

 

The Day to Fight against Breast Cancer was observed last October 19^th. Specialists called the attention again about this is the type of cancer causing more mortality in women.

Numbers from world Health Organization state 12 women will suffer from breast cancer along their lives. Only speaking of Peru, the same source says 685 thousand women died because of that disease in 2020.

Breast cancer breaks out when breast cells suffer mutations or changes in their DNA.Let’s remember DNA is the molecule containing the whole programming of functions and features of our bodies.

We inherit DNA from our fathers and mothers… and their fathers and their mothers. In fact, the most prevalence of breast cancer has inherited origin. In other words, if there were cases of this disease among your relatives, it’s probable you can get it. However, this theory is not conclusive.

Hundreds of factors can propitiate this disease to appear. What the Medicine does guarantee us is if the breast cancer, as well as any type of cancer, is detected in early moments, the chance to heal is high.

Right now, the breast self-exam is the first way to detect if you have any little suspicious bulge. If so, go immediately to your oncologist for having more specialized tests.

And if you have to start any treatment, just do it.

Celebrities diagnosed with breast cancer, who survived the disease, are actress Shannon Doherty, Matthew Knowles, actress Julia Louis Dreyffuss, journalist Joan London, presenter Giuliana Ransic, or journalist Andrea Mitchell. Look for their life stories on the web, and learn how they encouraged to face the disease. Life was their main choice.

In the list, I also included men. Yes, not much as women, but men also can get breast cancer. Remember, early detection saves lives.

Meanwhile, we comfort Friends and families whose passed away because of this disease. Our prays are with everyone of you.

 

Chasing the hacker

Here in Sullana, journalist Midian Agurto, Sullana en la Noticia’s publisher and editor, denounced her Facebook fanpage was hacked. Sullana en la Noticia is a Sullana City  affiliate of TresAlHilo, our Spanish language newscast.

According to Agurto, she lost the managing  of her fanpage in October 17^th afternoon.

On her show aired by Sullana based Millenium Radio, the journalist told she achieved to contact the hacker. Eventually after a negotiation process, the presumed cyber attacker promised to get back the fanpage control.It didn’t happen until our deadline.

Sullana en la Noticia is characterized by impartiality and criticism on Sullana reality. Some colleagues from other media have expressed solidarity with the journalist. Live Connection considers this is an attack against press freedom and speech freedom.

An actor and an anthropologist

Actor Nerit Olaya is in Cuba. He’s not on vacation, but an artistic tour. After a time he spent here in Sullana, he took a flight to the island.

Olaya told me he is leading workshops and acting in plays. Last weekend, the actor was recognized with Palabras Vivas Award in Las Tunas. The last week, he was in Holguín. He runs a dramatized reading show.

Last Friday, he performed Como en las películas, Like The Movies. Last Saturday, he enacted Del amor y otros desvaríos, About Love & Other Ravings. The play includes a tale from the Chilean writer Isabel Allendé, who currently lives in Los Angeles, California.

For October 29^th and 30^th, Olaya will be stil in Holguin, Cuba. That will be the time of La Tregua, The Truce, based upon the novel by Uruguayan Mario Benedetti.

As much as I know, Olaya’s future plans are coming to live and work here, in Sullana.

In non-fiction, there is another interesting releasing. Sullana-native anthropologist Elim Aguirre

has been presenting her first book. It’s entitled el Regreso de los Tallanés, The Return of Tallanés.

It’s about the cultural legacy of a Pre-Hispanic people living and working here, in Chira Valley. The so-called Tallán nation broke out circa 6^th century AD. Their golden age ran from 1100 to 1500 AD. It’s supposed they were conquered by the Spanish in 1532.

Miss Aguirré’s book includes the script of  a theater play reenacting the Spanish foundation of San Miguel in Tangarara, the first settlement the conquerors established at Chira Valley. The town persists today 12 miles away Sullana City, in Marcavelica District.
