Experts began to hypothesize about how the Olympians’ bodies
were adapting to performing at such a high altitude. The current
understanding of hypoxic training is that a gene known as HIF-1
(whose functions include creating oxygen-carrying red blood cells
and blood vessels among others) does its job at a higher rate
when the person is coping with less oxygen.
The question is: does this theory hold water? Because of the
inconclusive nature of the studies done so far, the answer to
that question is still up in the air. The only specific training
technique that has substantial evidence to support its effects is
Live High Train Low. During this training, (which typically lasts
for a few weeks), athletes live at high altitudes for most of the
day but train at lower altitudes for a couple hours each day
where there is more oxygen available.

The Way To Love contains the final flowering of Anthony de
Mello's thought, and in it he grapples with the ultimate question
of love. In thirty-one meditations, he implores his readers with
his usual pithiness to break through illusion, the great obstacle
to love. "Love springs from awareness," de Mello
insists, saying that it is only when we see others as they are
that we can begin to really love. But not only must we seek to
see others with clarity, we must examine ourselves without
misconception. The task, however, is not easy. "The most
painful act," de Mello says, "is the act of seeing. But
in that act of seeing that love is born." Anthony De Mello
was the director of the Sadhana Institute of Pastoral Counseling
in Poona, India, and authored several books. The Way To Love is
his last.

Details the unconventional life of Dr. William Marston, the
Harvard psychologist and inventor who helped invent the modern
lie detector test and created Wonder Woman in 1941. Marston was
in a polyamorous relationship with his wife Elizabeth, a
psychologist and inventor in her own right, and Olive Byrne, a
former student who became an academic. This relationship was key
to the creation of Wonder Woman, as Elizabeth and Olive's
feminist ideals were ingrained in the character from her
creation. Marston died of skin cancer in 1947, but Elizabeth and
Olive remained a couple and raised their and Marston's children
together. The film is said to focus on how Marston dealt with the
controversy surrounding Wonder Woman's creation.
