Clenbuterol Human Effects the Effect of Clenbuterol in Humans Is Researched Through Examining the History and Regulations of the Drug
Clenbuterol Human Effects The effect of clenbuterol in humans is researched through examining the history and regulations of the drug. Specifically, Alberto Contador’s case is considered. Tag Words: Clenbuterol; drugs; Beta-2 Agonist; Effects; Thermogenic; Fat; Harmful; Authors: Jessie Yeh, Horace Lau, Danielle Lovisone with Julie M. Fagan, Ph.D. Summary (written by Danielle Lovisone) As a sympathomimetic and Beta-2 agonist, clenbuterol have several deleterious effects on the human body. The drug acts as a thermogenic stimulant, increasing lean muscle mass and respiratory efficiency while reducing fat. Cases on clenbuterol, including animal tests and human occurrences, support these unnatural and potentially harmful effects. With this, athletes and body builders have recently increased their use of the drug. Particularly, Alberto Contador has recently been targeted for having traces of clenbuterol in a urine drug test. Contador claims, instead of doping, this trace amount was unknowingly received from ingesting beef in Spain during the 2010 Tour de France. Although clenbuterol is banned in most areas of the world, this explanation seems plausible because the drug is poorly regulated by organizations such as the FDA. To examine Contador’s case further, our group compiled research on clenbuterol to ultimately hypothesize that Contador received this trace amount from contaminated beef. Our findings were submitted to the World Anti-Doping Agency as part of our Service Project.

Organizational Forms in Professional Cycling – Efficiency Issues of the UCI Pro Tour
Organizational Forms in Professional Cycling – Efficiency Issues of the UCI Pro Tour Luca Rebeggiani§ * Davide Tondani DISCUSSION PAPER NO. 345 First Version: August 2006 This Version: July 2007 ISSN: 0949–9962 ABSTRACT: This paper gives a first economic approach to pro cycling and analyses the changes induced by the newly introduced UCI Pro Tour on the racing teams’ behaviour. We develop an oligopolistic model starting from the well known Cournot framework to analyse if the actual setting of the UCI Pro Tour leads to a partially unmeant behaviour of the racing teams. In particular, we show that the blamed regional concentration of their race participation depends on a lack of incentives stemming from the licence assignation procedure. Our theo- retical results are supported by empirical data concerning the performance of the racing teams in 2005 and 2006. As a recommendation for future improvements, we derive from the model the need for a relegation system for racing teams. ZUSAMMENFASSUNG: Der Aufsatz stellt die erste ökonomische Analyse des professionellen Radsports dar. Er analysiert insbesondere die Anreizwirkungen der neuen UCI Pro Tour auf Teams und Fahrer. Ausgehend von dem bekannten Cournot-Ansatz entwickeln wir ein einfaches Oligopol-Modell, um zu untersuchen, ob die der- zeitige Pro Tour-Organisation zu einem unerwünschten Verhalten der Teilnehmer führt. Wir zeigen, dass insbe- sondere das Problem der geographischen Konzentration der Rennteilnahmen der Teams von den mangelnden Anreizen abhängt, die vom jetzigen Lizenzvergabesystem ausgehen. Unsere theoretischen Ergebnisse werden durch empirische Daten aus der Pro Tour 2005 und 2006 gestützt. Als Empfehlung für zukünftige Entwicklun- gen leiten wir aus dem Modell die Notwendigkeit einer Öffnung der Pro Tour ab, mit Auf- und Abstiegsmög- lichkeiten für Rennteams. -

Introduction to the Introduction to the Teams
INTRODUCTION TO THE TEAMS AND RIDERS TO WATCH FOR GarminGarmin----TransitionsTransitions Ryder Hesjedal, 7th overall in the Tour de France, and the first Canadian Top 10 finisher in the Grande Boucle since Steve Bauer in 1988, will be looking to shine in front of the home crowd. EuskaltelEuskaltel----EuskadiEuskadi This team is made up almost entirely of cyclists from the Basque Country. Samuel Sánchez, Gold Medalist at the Beijing Olympics, narrowly missed the podium in this year’s Tour de France. Rabobank The orange-garbed team brings a 100% Dutch line-up to Québec and Montréal, led by Robert Gesink, a 24-year-old full of promise who finished 6th overall in the 2010 Tour de France, and solid lieutenants like Joost PosthumaPosthuma and Bram Tankink. Team RadioShack Lance Armstrong’s team fields a strong entry, featuring the backbone of the squad that competed in the Tour de France, including Levi Leipheimer (USA), 3rd overall in the 2007 Tour and Bronze Medalist in the Individual Time Trial in Beijing, Janez Brajkovic (Slovenia), winner of the 2010 Critérium du Dauphiné, and Sergio Paulinho (Portugal), who won a stage in this year’s Tour de France and was a Silver Medalist in Athens in 2004 and Yaroslav Popovych (Ukraine), former top 3 on the Tour of Italy. LiquigasLiquigas----DoimoDoimo This Italian squad will be counting on Ivan Basso, who won this year’s Giro d’Italia but faded in the Tour de France, but also on this past spring’s sensation, 20-year-old Peter Sagan of Slovakia, who won two stages of the Paris-Nice race, two in the Tour of California and one in the Tour de Romandie. -
'Life Goes On' for NBC Sports's Tour Team
The Outer Line The External Perspective On Pro Cycling ‘Life Goeshttps://www.theouterline.com on’ for NBC Sports’s Tour Team Following Sherwen’s Tragic Death When the Tour de France coverage kicks off on NBC Sports Network this weekend, it will mark the first time in 33 years that an English speaking audience will not hear the voice and sage insights of Paul Sherwen, who passed away in December, 2018. Long-time insider and supporting desk presenter Bob Roll will join the venerable Phil Liggett in front of the live commentary box cameras when coverage starts from Brussels, Belgium, Saturday, July 6. The transition would appear natural in light of Roll’s veteran experience in the booth and rapport with both personalities, and his deep historical cycling knowledge. Behind the scenes, NBC faces a daunting task to elevate its production game due to the expected impacts of Sherwen’s absence. “Bob knows he can never fill Paul’s shoes. Bob will simply have to cobble together a new pair,” said NBC’s Producer David Michaels, who has helmed the Tour’s American telecast since 2011. “Bob’s had a bit of experience working mano à mano with Phil. He brings a different energy and perspective. Bob grows with each broadcast. Can’t think of anyone out there who could go hour upon hour alongside Phil except Bob.” Michaels has an unprecedented perspective on his side. He began his storytelling of the Tour de France in the mid-1980s with CBS (his brother, Al, is widely known for his work in rival network ABC) and helped bring Greg LeMond’s famous 1985 and 1986 duels with teammate Bernard Hinault to the American audience. -

MP Yousef Al-Fadhalah said on his Twitter account that he will file to grill the prime minister on March 5 if the government allows Health Minister Jamal Al-Harbi to quit, while leaving “suspected corrupt senior bureaucrats” in their positions. The lawmaker said that he had learned that Harbi offered his resignation on Monday during the Cabinet meeting after his demand to sack the undersecretary and a number of senior officials was not accepted by the Cabinet. The controversy over the health minister has been growing even before the November election, after reports that the cost of sending Kuwaitis for treatment abroad skyrocketed to new highs. Some MPs put it at as high as KD 750 million last year. Opposition MPs have alleged that a majority of those sent for treatment abroad were in fact not patients but sent on what they described as “medical tourism or politi- cal medication”, under which thousands of fake patients were sent abroad to appease certain MPs. -
