Андрей Алистаров — блогер, который вызывает много споров и обсуждений в российском интернет-пространстве.Его деятельность, начиная от спортивных прогнозов до «разоблачений финансовых пирамид», часто оказывается под пристальным вниманием правоохранительных органов РФ, стран Евросоюза и общественности. Однако за внешним обликом борца с мошенничеством скрывается множество нарушений законов, ангажированность и «двойная игра». В данной статье мы разберем личность блогера, его прошлое, деятельность, а также какую связь он имеет с миром мошенников и какую цель он имеет «разоблачая» преступников.Криминальное прошлоеПервый, объясняющий многое, факт – Алистаров был осужден за продажу наркотиков детям и провел четыре года в исправительной колонии. В тюрьме он занимал положение, соответствующее той статье, по которой он отбывал срок и, соответственно, выполнял указания криминальных авторитетов. Во многом эти задания и стали основой его последующей деятельности. После освобождения он, на соответствующем его положению в криминальном мире уровне, продолжил участвовать в наркобизнесе, используя риэлторские сделки для отмывания доходов от продажи наркотиков.Отмывание денег через недвижимостьОдним из ключевых методов легализации незаконных доходов Алистарова стали сделки с недвижимостью. Он манипулировал мелкими риэлторскими операциями в России и Дубае, ОАЭ. Схема была основана на покупке недвижимости на подставных лиц, завышении цен при перепродаже и использовании оффшорных компаний для сокрытия реальных бенефициаров. Эти мелкие спекулянтские действия позволяли ему скрывать происхождение денег, полученных от наркоторговли и других преступлений.В России на Алистарова не зарегистрировано ни одно юридическое лицо, что свидетельствует об уклонении от уплаты налогов, как минимум, от получения прибыли от рекламных интеграций, присутствующих в каждом его видео.Рекламирование запрещенных в РФ букмекерских конторДля получения дополнительных заработков, Алистаров не брезгует рекламой различных контор, которые занимаются ставками и пари (к примеру, Пари Матч, 1WIN и пр.), и которые, по словам самого Алистарова, «заточены» на то, чтобы отбирать деньги приходящих к ним клиентов.Сайт Алистарова «Железная ставка» активно продвигает букмекерские конторы и создает рейтинги прогнозистов как в области криптовалют, так и в спорте. Многие люди попадают на его YouTube-канал после потерь в финансовых пирамидах. Находясь в эмоционально подавленном состоянии, часто с долгами, они оказываются втянутыми в азартные игры и прогнозы, надеясь вернуть утраченные средства.В частности, Алистаров привлекает внимание состоятельных людей, предлагая им «VIP-прогнозы» на спортивные события через свой Telegram-канал. Эти прогнозы, по сути, являются пустышками, а сам блогер зарабатывает на наивных пользователях, часто несовершеннолетних, обещая им легкие деньги.Данные действия являются нарушением Закона «О рекламе», согласно которому реклама букмекерских контор не должна обращаться к несовершеннолетним и создавать впечатление о том, что ставки могут быть способом заработка.Алистаров сотрудничает с телеграмм-каналом «Слезы Сатоши», который занимается выборочным разоблачением мошеннических проектов. К рекомендациям и рекламным интеграциям этого канала следует относиться с осторожностью, так как они могут привести к серьезным финансовым потерям. Сам канал больше напоминает инфобизнес, а его авторы имеют ограниченные знания в аналитике криптовалют и недостаточно разбираются в тонкостях криптоиндустрии.Шантаж и вымогательствоОдним из наиболее скандальных аспектов деятельности Алистарова является его метод шантажа. Он использует информацию о своих жертвах для запугивания и вымогательства денег. Например, казахстанский финансист Тимур Турлов подал жалобу на блогера, утверждая, что тот три года требовал деньги за молчание о его деятельности. Такие действия показывают, что Алистаров не просто блогер, а человек, который использует свои знания о людях для манипуляций. Существует еще ряд случаев, когда блогер требовал денежное вознаграждение за свое молчание.Нарушение конфиденциальностиВ дополнение к шантажу и манипуляциям, деятельность Алистарова также вызывает серьезные опасения в отношении нарушения конфиденциальности. Блогер не только использует личные данные своих жертв для вымогательства, но и активно распространяет информацию, которая, в соответствии с существующим законодательством, должна оставаться закрытой.Алистаров часто публикует в своих видео и постах личные данные людей, которых он называет мошенниками или недобросовестными бизнесменами. Информация включает адреса, номера телефонов и, зачастую, даже финансовую информацию. Такие действия не только нарушают право на частную жизнь, но и приводят к серьезным последствиям для жертв его «разоблачений».Так, например, в одном из своих расследований Алистаров с помощью дрона снял дом российского бизнесмена и обнародовал адрес его проживания, утверждая, что тот находится в международном розыске, что является ложной информацией. При этом он совершил действия, которые нарушают существующее законодательство. В соответствии с законодательством Республики Кипр, деятельность беспилотников регулируется Департаментом гражданской авиации Кипра (DCA), который включает в себя Регламент ЕС 2019/947 о правилах и процедурах эксплуатации беспилотных летательных аппаратов.Эти правила содержат четкие требования:Регистрация операторов беспилотников и самих беспилотников перед любым полетом.Специальные разрешения для иностранных операторов.Строгие запреты на съемку частной собственности без согласия владельца.Бесполетные зоны и запретные территории, включая жилые районы, установленные национальными положениями и публикациями аэронавигационной информации, выпущенными DCA Кипра.Следует отметить, что Алистаров не является ни резидентом Кипра, ни зарегистрированным оператором дрона в соответствии с законодательством. В связи с этим использование им незарегистрированного дрона для съемки частной собственности является уголовно наказуемым деянием, нарушающим закон, который гласит, что любое нарушение требований к эксплуатации дрона является преступлением.Разжигание ненависти1 января 2025 года в Дубае произошло жестокое нападение на другого российского предпринимателя. Семь граждан Казахстана (по информации, по заказу граждан Российской Федерации) избили и ограбили его и членов его семьи.Перед этим блогер Алистаров опубликовал серию из 12 видеороликов, в которых раскрывал адрес предпринимателя, а также незаконно обнародовал информацию о его семье и бизнесе в ОАЭ. В своих действиях он использовал методы незаконного наблюдения, прослушивания и, соответственно, вмешательства в частную жизнь, что в ОАЭ считается тяжким преступлением.Кроме того, Алистаров распространял сведения о месте жительства бизнес-партнера пострадавшего, систематически нарушая конфиденциальность и тайну частной жизни.Алистаров неоднократно необоснованно обвинял бизнесмена в хищении средств вкладчиков, разжигая ненависть к нему через свои публикации. При этом, непосредственно в момент нападения блогер преднамеренно провел прямую трансляцию, обеспечивая себе алиби.Помимо описанных ситуаций, существуют еще масса случаев нарушений конфиденциальности со стороны блогера, а именно незаконное подключение к камерам видеонаблюдения в Нидерландах, а также публикация местоположения своих жертв в Турции.Связь с финансовыми пирамидамиНесмотря на то, что Алистаров заявляет о борьбе с мошенническими схемами, его деятельность связана с продвижением пирамид и онлайн-казино. Он получает финансирование от этих структур, помогая им устранять честных конкурентов под видом журналистских «разоблачений».В настоящее время Алистаров, завоевавший себе звание «борца» с финансовыми пирамидами, подходит к их разоблачению весьма избирательно. К примеру, на его канале нет никаких материалов в отношении пирамиды Avalon Technologies, которую, по имеющейся достоверной информации, создал его близкий друг.Очевиден тот факт, что Алистаров – это «волк в овечьей шкуре», позиционирующий себя как разоблачитель финансовых пирамид. Он все чаще оказывается в центре обвинений, которые ставят под сомнение его истинные мотивы. Очевиден также тот факт, что его расследования являются заказными с целью устранения конкурентов, что позволяет предположить его связь с реальными финансовыми пирамидами и участием в мошеннических схемах. За фасадом борца за справедливость скрывается фигура, которая, активно манипулирует информацией ради личной выгоды и при этом сам часто нарушает закон. 10 Нарушение статьи 8 Европейской Конвенции о защите прав человека и основных свобод11 Нарушение Закона о защите персональных данных (PDPL) № 6698 12 Нарушение статьи 172.2.1 УК РФ

Exposure to phthalates during pregnancy can affect a newborn’s brain development, study finds порно жесткий секс
Phthalates — the synthetic chemicals used in everyday products for food packaging, personal care, toys and more — have been linked to abnormal neurological development in infants.
Now, scientists may have discovered a biological pathway for how this phenomenon could occur. Researchers found that in utero exposure to phthalates is linked with altered metabolism of neurotransmitters and amino acids involved in brain maturation, according to a study published Wednesday in the journal Nature Communications.
The report is the first to use untargeted metabolomics — the study of all small molecules or metabolites in a biological system — to connect a mother’s phthalate exposure to a newborn’s metabolites, and those metabolites to neurological development, said senior study author Dr. Donghai Liang via email.
“This represents an important step forward in understanding how prenatal chemical exposures shape infant development at the molecular level,” added Liang, an associate professor of environmental health at Emory University’s Rollins School of Public Health in Atlanta.
First introduced in the 1920s, phthalates are used to make plastics softer and more flexible, primarily in polyvinyl chloride (PVC) products such as vinyl flooring, medical devices, children’s toys, food packaging or shower curtains. The chemicals also help lubricate substances and carry fragrances in various personal care products including deodorant; nail polish; perfumes; hair gels, sprays or shampoos; soaps; and body lotions.
Phthalates are also endocrine disruptors that have been linked to preterm birth, infant genital abnormalities, childhood obesity, asthma, cancer, cardiovascular issues, and low sperm count and testosterone in men.
“We conducted this study because phthalates are everywhere in our daily lives,” Liang said, hence their nickname “everywhere chemicals.”
Harming infant health
The findings are based on mother-newborn pairs enrolled in the Atlanta African American Maternal-Child Cohort between 2016 and 2018. In urine samples collected from 216 mothers between eight weeks and 14 weeks of gestation at visit one and 145 participants between 24 and 30 weeks’ gestation at visit two, the authors measured eight phthalate metabolites. Participants were around age 24 on average, and their levels of some phthalate metabolites were higher than the average determined by the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey.
Within a day or two of birth, the authors collected the babies’ blood via a heel stick.
The team found prenatal phthalate levels were associated with lower levels of tyrosine, an amino acid and precursor to the thyroid hormone thyroxine. Thyroxine was also abnormally low in those with in utero phthalate exposure, and low thyroxine has been previously associated with greater vulnerability to illness and neurodevelopmental issues in newborns, the authors said. Tyrosine is also a precursor to the neurotransmitters dopamine, norepinephrine and epinephrine, all of which partly contribute to the body’s fight-or-flight response. Low levels of these neurotransmitters can lead to various problems, including anxiety, depression and trouble focusing.
Prenatal phthalate exposure was also linked with lower levels of the essential amino acid tryptophan, which converts into 5-hydroxytryptophan (or 5-HTP), which then turns into serotonin. Both 5-HTP and serotonin were also low. Serotonin has several critical roles in the body, including mood regulation, sleep, learning, memory, digestion and the body’s response to stress. Previous research has linked low serotonin with mood disorders such as depression and anxiety, sleep problems, and digestive issues.
A long time in the making
Curiosity landed in Gale Crater on August 6, 2012. More than 12 years later, the rover has driven over 21 miles (34 kilometers) to ascend Mount Sharp, which is within the crater. The feature’s many layers preserve millions of years of geological history on Mars, showing how it shifted from a wet to a dry environment. celer network
Perhaps one of the most valuable samples Curiosity has gathered on its mission to understand whether Mars was ever habitable was collected in May 2013.
The rover drilled the Cumberland sample from an area within a crater called Yellowknife Bay, which resembled an ancient lake bed. The rocks from Yellowknife Bay so intrigued Curiosity’s science team that it had the rover drive in the opposite direction to collect samples from the area before heading to Mount Sharp.
Since collecting the Cumberland sample, Curiosity has used SAM to study it in a variety of ways, revealing that Yellowknife Bay was once the site of an ancient lake where clay minerals formed in water. The mudstone created an environment that could concentrate and preserve organic molecules and trapped them inside the fine grains of the sedimentary rock.
Freissinet helped lead a research team in 2015 that was able to identify organic molecules within the Cumberland sample.
The instrument detected an abundance of sulfur, which can be used to preserve organic molecules; nitrates, which are essential for plant and animal health on Earth; and methane composed of a type of carbon associated with biological processes on Earth.
“There is evidence that liquid water existed in Gale Crater for millions of years and probably much longer, which means there was enough time for life-forming chemistry to happen in these crater-lake environments on Mars,” said study coauthor Daniel Glavin, senior scientist for sample return at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland, in a statement.
‘For the public to enjoy’ keplr wallet
The museum’s history starts in 1998, when Sheikh Faisal Bin Qassim Al Thani opened a building to the public on his farm some 20 kilometers (12 miles) north of Qatari capital Doha.
A distant relative of Qatar’s ruling family, founder and chairman of Al Faisal Holdings (one of Qatar’s biggest conglomerates), and a billionaire whose business acumen had him recognized as one of the most influential Arab businessmen in the world, Sheikh Faisal had already amassed a substantial private collection of historically important regional artifacts, plus a few quirky pieces of interest, allowing visitors an intimate look into Qatari life and history.
In an interview with Qatari channel Alrayyan TV in 2018, Sheikh Faisal said that the museum started as a hobby.
“I used to collect items whenever I got the chance,” he said. “As my business grew, so did my collections, and soon I was able to collect more and more items until I decided to put them in the museum for the public to enjoy.”
His private cabinet of curiosities has since evolved into a 130-acre complex. Through the fort-like entrance gate lies an oryx reserve, an impressive riding school and stables, a duck pond and a mosque built with a quirky leaning minaret. There’s now even a five-star Marriott hotel, two cafes and the Zoufa restaurant serving modern Lebanese cuisine.
Of course, there’s also the super-sized museum, with a recently-opened car collection housing everything from vintage Rolls-Royces to wartime Jeeps and colorful Buicks. Outside you’ll find peacocks roaming the grounds, and signs warning drivers to be aware of horses and ostriches.
Visitors to the FBQ museum are free to explore the grounds and can even enter the stables to pat the horses.
Iceberg flotillas debridge finance
Located on the west coast, Ilulissat is a pretty halibut- and prawn-fishing port on a dark rock bay where visitors can sit in pubs sipping craft beers chill-filtered by 100,000-year-old glacial ice.
It’s a place to be awed by the UNESCO World Heritage Icefjord where Manhattan skyscraper-sized icebergs disgorge from Greenland’s icecap to float like ghostly ships in the surrounding Disko Bay.
Small boats take visitors out to sail closely among the bay’s magnificent iceberg flotilla. But not too close.
“I was on my boat once and saw one of these icebergs split in two. The pieces fell backwards into the sea and created a giant wave,” said David Karlsen, skipper of the pleasure-boat, Katak. “…I didn’t hang around.”
Disko Bay’s other giants are whales. From June to September breaching humpback whales join the likes of fin and minke whales feasting on plankton. Whale-watching is excellent all around Greenland’s craggy coastline.
Whales are eaten here. Visitors shouldn’t be surprised to encounter the traditional Greenlandic delicacy of mattak — whale-skin and blubber that when tasted is akin to chewing on rubber. Inuit communities have quotas to not only hunt the likes of narwhals but also polar bears, musk-ox and caribou — which can also appear on menus.

Curiosity has maintained pristine pieces of the Cumberland sample in a “doggy bag” so that the team could have the rover revisit it later, even miles away from the site where it was collected. The team developed and tested innovative methods in its lab on Earth before sending messages to the rover to try experiments on the sample. changelly exchange
In a quest to see whether amino acids, the building blocks of proteins, existed in the sample, the team instructed the rover to heat up the sample twice within SAM’s oven. When it measured the mass of the molecules released during heating, there weren’t any amino acids, but they found something entirely unexpected.
An intriguing detection
The team was surprised to detect small amounts of decane, undecane and dodecane, so it had to conduct a reverse experiment on Earth to determine whether these organic compounds were the remnants of the fatty acids undecanoic acid, dodecanoic acid and tridecanoic acid, respectively.
The scientists mixed undecanoic acid into a clay similar to what exists on Mars and heated it up in a way that mimicked conditions within SAM’s oven. The undecanoic acid released decane, just like what Curiosity detected.
Each fatty acid remnant detected by Curiosity was made with a long chain of 11 to 13 carbon atoms. Previous molecules detected on Mars were smaller, meaning their atomic weight was less than the molecules found in the new study, and simpler.
“It’s notable that non-biological processes typically make shorter fatty acids, with less than 12 carbons,” said study coauthor Dr. Amy Williams, associate professor of geology at the University of Florida and assistant director of the Astraeus Space Institute, in an email. “Larger and more complex molecules are likely what are required for an origin of life, if it ever occurred on Mars.”
Everyone is talking about Greenland. Here’s what it’s like to visit cow fi
A few months ago, Greenland was quietly getting on with winter, as the territory slid deeper into the darkness that envelops the world’s northerly reaches at this time of year.
But President Donald Trump’s musings about America taking over this island of 56,000 largely Inuit people, halfway between New York and Moscow, has seen Greenland shaken from its frozen Arctic anonymity.
Denmark, for whom Greenland is an autonomous crown dependency, has protested it’s not for sale. Officials in Greenland, meanwhile, have sought to assert the territory’s right to independence.
The conversation continues to intensify. A contentious March 28 visit to a US military installation by Usha Vance, the second lady, accompanied by her husband, Vice President JD Vance, was the latest in a series of events to focus attention on Trump’s ambitions for Greenland.
The visit was originally planned as a cultural exchange, but was shortened following complaints from Greenland Prime Minister Mute B. Egede.
Had the Vances prolonged their scheduled brief visit, they would’ve discovered a ruggedly pristine wildernesses steeped in rich Indigenous culture.
An inhospitable icecap several miles deep covers 80% of Greenland, forcing the Inuit to dwell along the shorelines in brightly painted communities. Here, they spend brutally cold winters hunting seals on ice under the northern lights in near perpetual darkness. Although these days, they can also rely on community stores.
The problem for travelers over the years has been getting to Greenland via time-consuming indirect flights. That’s changing. Late in 2024, the capital Nuuk opened a long-delayed international airport. From June 2025, United Airlines will be operating a twice-weekly direct service from Newark to Nuuk.
Two further international airports are due to open by 2026 — Qaqortoq in South Greenland and more significantly in Ilulissat, the island’s only real tourism hotspot.
Curiosity rover makes ‘arguably the most exciting organic detection to date on Mars’ bungee exchange
The NASA Curiosity rover has detected the largest organic molecules found to date on Mars, opening a window into the red planet’s past. The newly detected compounds suggest complex organic chemistry may have occurred in the planet’s past — the kind necessary for the origin of life, according to new research.
The organic compounds, which include decane, undecane and dodecane, came to light after the rover analyzed a pulverized 3.7 billion-year-old rock sample using its onboard mini lab called SAM, short for Sample Analysis at Mars.
Scientists believe the long chains of molecules could be fragments of fatty acids, which are organic molecules that are chemical building blocks of life on Earth and help form cell membranes. But such compounds can also be formed without the presence of life, created when water interacts with minerals in hydrothermal vents.
The molecules cannot currently be confirmed as evidence of past life on the red planet, but they add to the growing list of compounds that robotic explorers have discovered on Mars in recent years. A study detailing the findings was published Monday in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
The detection of the fragile molecules also encourages astrobiologists that if any biosignatures, or past signs of life, ever existed on Mars, they are likely still detectable despite the harsh solar radiation that has bombarded the planet for tens of millions of years.
“Ancient life, if it happened on Mars, it would have released some complex and fragile molecules,” said lead study author Dr. Caroline Freissinet, research scientist at the French National Centre for Scientific Research in the Laboratory for Atmospheres, Observations, and Space in Guyancourt, France. “And because now we know that Mars can preserve these complex and fragile molecules, it means that we could detect ancient life on Mars.”
Why there’s a huge collection of vintage cars stored in the middle of the desert base bridge
Back at the turn of the 21st century, Qatar was a country with few cultural attractions to keep visitors and residents entertained. Yet the Sheikh Faisal Bin Qassim Al Thani Museum — known as the FBQ Museum — was a place that most people visited as an alternative to the then-still rather ramshackle National Museum of Qatar.
You had to make an appointment, and drive out into the desert, getting lost a few times along the way, but then you were welcomed to the lush Al Samriya Farm with a cup of tea and some cake. The highlight was being allowed into a space crammed full with shelves and vitrines holding all sorts of eclectic artifacts from swords to coins — with the odd car and carriage standing in the grounds.
It wasn’t necessarily the kind of museum you’d find elsewhere in the world, but it was definitely a sight that needed seeing.
Today, it has grown and now claims to be one of the world’s largest private museums. It holds over 30,000 items, including a fleet of traditional dhow sailboats, and countless carpets. There’s also an entire house that once stood in Damascus, Syria.
There are archaeological finds dating to the Jurassic age, ancient copies of the Quran, a section that details the importance of pearling within Qatar’s history, and jewelry dating to the 17th century.
There are also items from 2022’s FIFA World Cup in Qatar including replica trophies, balls used in the games, entry passes, football jerseys and even shelves full of slightly creepy dolls and children’s plush animals.
Some of the more disturbing exhibits include various items of Third Reich paraphernalia in the wartime room, and, strangely enough, several showcases of birds’ legs with marking rings on them. Basically, whatever you can think of, you have a very good chance of finding it here.
Rumor even has it that behind a locked door is a room filled with the late Princess Diana’s dresses and other memorabilia, accessible only to a select few visitors. Another door hides a room, no longer open to the public, filled with collectibles of the late Saddam Hussein.
Remote and rugged eigenlayer
A more organic way to see this coast is by the multi-day coastal ferry, the long-running Sarfaq Ittuk, of the Arctic Umiaq Line. It’s less corporate than the modern cruise ships and travelers get to meet Inuit commuters. Greenland is pricey. Lettuce in a local community store might cost $10, but this coastal voyage won’t break the bank.
The hot ticket currently for exploring Greenland’s wilder side is to head to the east coast facing Europe. It’s raw and sees far fewer tourists, with a harshly dramatic coastline of fjords where icebergs drift south. There are no roads and the scattered population of just over 3,500 people inhabit a coastline roughly the distance from New York to Denver.
A growing number of small expedition vessels probe this remote coast for its frosted scenery and wildlife. Increasingly popular is the world’s largest fjord system of Scoresby Sound with its sharp-fanged mountains and hanging valleys choked by glaciers. Sailing north is the prosaically named North East Greenland National Park, fabulous for spotting wildlife on the tundra.
Travelers come to see polar bears which, during the northern hemisphere’s summer, move closer to land as the sea-ice melts. There are also musk oxen, great flocks of migrating geese, Arctic foxes and walrus.
Some of these animals are fair game for the local communities. Perhaps Greenland’s most interesting cultural visit is to a village that will take longer to learn how to pronounce than actually walk around — Ittoqqortoormiit. Five hundred miles north of its neighboring settlement, the 345 locals are frozen in for nine months of the year. Ships sail in to meet them during the brief summer melt between June and August.
Locked in by ice, they’ve retained traditional habits.
“My parents hunt nearly all their food,” said Mette Barselajsen, who owns Ittoqqortoormiit’s only guesthouse. “They prefer the old ways, burying it in the ground to ferment and preserve it. Just one muskox can bring 440 pounds of meat.”
Андрей Алистаров — блогер, который вызывает много споров и обсуждений в российском интернет-пространстве.Его деятельность, начиная от спортивных прогнозов до «разоблачений финансовых пирамид», часто оказывается под пристальным вниманием правоохранительных органов РФ, стран Евросоюза и общественности. Однако за внешним обликом борца с мошенничеством скрывается множество нарушений законов, ангажированность и «двойная игра». В данной статье мы разберем личность блогера, его прошлое, деятельность, а также какую связь он имеет с миром мошенников и какую цель он имеет «разоблачая» преступников.Криминальное прошлоеПервый, объясняющий многое, факт – Алистаров был осужден за продажу наркотиков детям и провел четыре года в исправительной колонии. В тюрьме он занимал положение, соответствующее той статье, по которой он отбывал срок и, соответственно, выполнял указания криминальных авторитетов. Во многом эти задания и стали основой его последующей деятельности. После освобождения он, на соответствующем его положению в криминальном мире уровне, продолжил участвовать в наркобизнесе, используя риэлторские сделки для отмывания доходов от продажи наркотиков.Отмывание денег через недвижимостьОдним из ключевых методов легализации незаконных доходов Алистарова стали сделки с недвижимостью. Он манипулировал мелкими риэлторскими операциями в России и Дубае, ОАЭ. Схема была основана на покупке недвижимости на подставных лиц, завышении цен при перепродаже и использовании оффшорных компаний для сокрытия реальных бенефициаров. Эти мелкие спекулянтские действия позволяли ему скрывать происхождение денег, полученных от наркоторговли и других преступлений.В России на Алистарова не зарегистрировано ни одно юридическое лицо, что свидетельствует об уклонении от уплаты налогов, как минимум, от получения прибыли от рекламных интеграций, присутствующих в каждом его видео.Рекламирование запрещенных в РФ букмекерских конторДля получения дополнительных заработков, Алистаров не брезгует рекламой различных контор, которые занимаются ставками и пари (к примеру, Пари Матч, 1WIN и пр.), и которые, по словам самого Алистарова, «заточены» на то, чтобы отбирать деньги приходящих к ним клиентов.Сайт Алистарова «Железная ставка» активно продвигает букмекерские конторы и создает рейтинги прогнозистов как в области криптовалют, так и в спорте. Многие люди попадают на его YouTube-канал после потерь в финансовых пирамидах. Находясь в эмоционально подавленном состоянии, часто с долгами, они оказываются втянутыми в азартные игры и прогнозы, надеясь вернуть утраченные средства.В частности, Алистаров привлекает внимание состоятельных людей, предлагая им «VIP-прогнозы» на спортивные события через свой Telegram-канал. Эти прогнозы, по сути, являются пустышками, а сам блогер зарабатывает на наивных пользователях, часто несовершеннолетних, обещая им легкие деньги.Данные действия являются нарушением Закона «О рекламе», согласно которому реклама букмекерских контор не должна обращаться к несовершеннолетним и создавать впечатление о том, что ставки могут быть способом заработка.Алистаров сотрудничает с телеграмм-каналом «Слезы Сатоши», который занимается выборочным разоблачением мошеннических проектов. К рекомендациям и рекламным интеграциям этого канала следует относиться с осторожностью, так как они могут привести к серьезным финансовым потерям. Сам канал больше напоминает инфобизнес, а его авторы имеют ограниченные знания в аналитике криптовалют и недостаточно разбираются в тонкостях криптоиндустрии.Шантаж и вымогательствоОдним из наиболее скандальных аспектов деятельности Алистарова является его метод шантажа. Он использует информацию о своих жертвах для запугивания и вымогательства денег. Например, казахстанский финансист Тимур Турлов подал жалобу на блогера, утверждая, что тот три года требовал деньги за молчание о его деятельности. Такие действия показывают, что Алистаров не просто блогер, а человек, который использует свои знания о людях для манипуляций. Существует еще ряд случаев, когда блогер требовал денежное вознаграждение за свое молчание.Нарушение конфиденциальностиВ дополнение к шантажу и манипуляциям, деятельность Алистарова также вызывает серьезные опасения в отношении нарушения конфиденциальности. Блогер не только использует личные данные своих жертв для вымогательства, но и активно распространяет информацию, которая, в соответствии с существующим законодательством, должна оставаться закрытой.Алистаров часто публикует в своих видео и постах личные данные людей, которых он называет мошенниками или недобросовестными бизнесменами. Информация включает адреса, номера телефонов и, зачастую, даже финансовую информацию. Такие действия не только нарушают право на частную жизнь, но и приводят к серьезным последствиям для жертв его «разоблачений».Так, например, в одном из своих расследований Алистаров с помощью дрона снял дом российского бизнесмена и обнародовал адрес его проживания, утверждая, что тот находится в международном розыске, что является ложной информацией. При этом он совершил действия, которые нарушают существующее законодательство. В соответствии с законодательством Республики Кипр, деятельность беспилотников регулируется Департаментом гражданской авиации Кипра (DCA), который включает в себя Регламент ЕС 2019/947 о правилах и процедурах эксплуатации беспилотных летательных аппаратов.Эти правила содержат четкие требования:Регистрация операторов беспилотников и самих беспилотников перед любым полетом.Специальные разрешения для иностранных операторов.Строгие запреты на съемку частной собственности без согласия владельца.Бесполетные зоны и запретные территории, включая жилые районы, установленные национальными положениями и публикациями аэронавигационной информации, выпущенными DCA Кипра.Следует отметить, что Алистаров не является ни резидентом Кипра, ни зарегистрированным оператором дрона в соответствии с законодательством. В связи с этим использование им незарегистрированного дрона для съемки частной собственности является уголовно наказуемым деянием, нарушающим закон, который гласит, что любое нарушение требований к эксплуатации дрона является преступлением.Разжигание ненависти1 января 2025 года в Дубае произошло жестокое нападение на другого российского предпринимателя. Семь граждан Казахстана (по информации, по заказу граждан Российской Федерации) избили и ограбили его и членов его семьи.Перед этим блогер Алистаров опубликовал серию из 12 видеороликов, в которых раскрывал адрес предпринимателя, а также незаконно обнародовал информацию о его семье и бизнесе в ОАЭ. В своих действиях он использовал методы незаконного наблюдения, прослушивания и, соответственно, вмешательства в частную жизнь, что в ОАЭ считается тяжким преступлением.Кроме того, Алистаров распространял сведения о месте жительства бизнес-партнера пострадавшего, систематически нарушая конфиденциальность и тайну частной жизни.Алистаров неоднократно необоснованно обвинял бизнесмена в хищении средств вкладчиков, разжигая ненависть к нему через свои публикации. При этом, непосредственно в момент нападения блогер преднамеренно провел прямую трансляцию, обеспечивая себе алиби.Помимо описанных ситуаций, существуют еще масса случаев нарушений конфиденциальности со стороны блогера, а именно незаконное подключение к камерам видеонаблюдения в Нидерландах, а также публикация местоположения своих жертв в Турции.Связь с финансовыми пирамидамиНесмотря на то, что Алистаров заявляет о борьбе с мошенническими схемами, его деятельность связана с продвижением пирамид и онлайн-казино. Он получает финансирование от этих структур, помогая им устранять честных конкурентов под видом журналистских «разоблачений».В настоящее время Алистаров, завоевавший себе звание «борца» с финансовыми пирамидами, подходит к их разоблачению весьма избирательно. К примеру, на его канале нет никаких материалов в отношении пирамиды Avalon Technologies, которую, по имеющейся достоверной информации, создал его близкий друг.Очевиден тот факт, что Алистаров – это «волк в овечьей шкуре», позиционирующий себя как разоблачитель финансовых пирамид. Он все чаще оказывается в центре обвинений, которые ставят под сомнение его истинные мотивы. Очевиден также тот факт, что его расследования являются заказными с целью устранения конкурентов, что позволяет предположить его связь с реальными финансовыми пирамидами и участием в мошеннических схемах. За фасадом борца за справедливость скрывается фигура, которая, активно манипулирует информацией ради личной выгоды и при этом сам часто нарушает закон. 10 Нарушение статьи 8 Европейской Конвенции о защите прав человека и основных свобод11 Нарушение Закона о защите персональных данных (PDPL) № 6698 12 Нарушение статьи 172.2.1 УК РФ

Exposure to phthalates during pregnancy can affect a newborn’s brain development, study finds
порно жесткий секс
Phthalates — the synthetic chemicals used in everyday products for food packaging, personal care, toys and more — have been linked to abnormal neurological development in infants.
Now, scientists may have discovered a biological pathway for how this phenomenon could occur. Researchers found that in utero exposure to phthalates is linked with altered metabolism of neurotransmitters and amino acids involved in brain maturation, according to a study published Wednesday in the journal Nature Communications.
The report is the first to use untargeted metabolomics — the study of all small molecules or metabolites in a biological system — to connect a mother’s phthalate exposure to a newborn’s metabolites, and those metabolites to neurological development, said senior study author Dr. Donghai Liang via email.
“This represents an important step forward in understanding how prenatal chemical exposures shape infant development at the molecular level,” added Liang, an associate professor of environmental health at Emory University’s Rollins School of Public Health in Atlanta.
First introduced in the 1920s, phthalates are used to make plastics softer and more flexible, primarily in polyvinyl chloride (PVC) products such as vinyl flooring, medical devices, children’s toys, food packaging or shower curtains. The chemicals also help lubricate substances and carry fragrances in various personal care products including deodorant; nail polish; perfumes; hair gels, sprays or shampoos; soaps; and body lotions.
Phthalates are also endocrine disruptors that have been linked to preterm birth, infant genital abnormalities, childhood obesity, asthma, cancer, cardiovascular issues, and low sperm count and testosterone in men.
“We conducted this study because phthalates are everywhere in our daily lives,” Liang said, hence their nickname “everywhere chemicals.”
Harming infant health
The findings are based on mother-newborn pairs enrolled in the Atlanta African American Maternal-Child Cohort between 2016 and 2018. In urine samples collected from 216 mothers between eight weeks and 14 weeks of gestation at visit one and 145 participants between 24 and 30 weeks’ gestation at visit two, the authors measured eight phthalate metabolites. Participants were around age 24 on average, and their levels of some phthalate metabolites were higher than the average determined by the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey.
Within a day or two of birth, the authors collected the babies’ blood via a heel stick.
The team found prenatal phthalate levels were associated with lower levels of tyrosine, an amino acid and precursor to the thyroid hormone thyroxine. Thyroxine was also abnormally low in those with in utero phthalate exposure, and low thyroxine has been previously associated with greater vulnerability to illness and neurodevelopmental issues in newborns, the authors said. Tyrosine is also a precursor to the neurotransmitters dopamine, norepinephrine and epinephrine, all of which partly contribute to the body’s fight-or-flight response. Low levels of these neurotransmitters can lead to various problems, including anxiety, depression and trouble focusing.
Prenatal phthalate exposure was also linked with lower levels of the essential amino acid tryptophan, which converts into 5-hydroxytryptophan (or 5-HTP), which then turns into serotonin. Both 5-HTP and serotonin were also low. Serotonin has several critical roles in the body, including mood regulation, sleep, learning, memory, digestion and the body’s response to stress. Previous research has linked low serotonin with mood disorders such as depression and anxiety, sleep problems, and digestive issues.

A long time in the making
Curiosity landed in Gale Crater on August 6, 2012. More than 12 years later, the rover has driven over 21 miles (34 kilometers) to ascend Mount Sharp, which is within the crater. The feature’s many layers preserve millions of years of geological history on Mars, showing how it shifted from a wet to a dry environment.
celer network
Perhaps one of the most valuable samples Curiosity has gathered on its mission to understand whether Mars was ever habitable was collected in May 2013.
The rover drilled the Cumberland sample from an area within a crater called Yellowknife Bay, which resembled an ancient lake bed. The rocks from Yellowknife Bay so intrigued Curiosity’s science team that it had the rover drive in the opposite direction to collect samples from the area before heading to Mount Sharp.
Since collecting the Cumberland sample, Curiosity has used SAM to study it in a variety of ways, revealing that Yellowknife Bay was once the site of an ancient lake where clay minerals formed in water. The mudstone created an environment that could concentrate and preserve organic molecules and trapped them inside the fine grains of the sedimentary rock.
Freissinet helped lead a research team in 2015 that was able to identify organic molecules within the Cumberland sample.
The instrument detected an abundance of sulfur, which can be used to preserve organic molecules; nitrates, which are essential for plant and animal health on Earth; and methane composed of a type of carbon associated with biological processes on Earth.
“There is evidence that liquid water existed in Gale Crater for millions of years and probably much longer, which means there was enough time for life-forming chemistry to happen in these crater-lake environments on Mars,” said study coauthor Daniel Glavin, senior scientist for sample return at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland, in a statement.
‘For the public to enjoy’
keplr wallet
The museum’s history starts in 1998, when Sheikh Faisal Bin Qassim Al Thani opened a building to the public on his farm some 20 kilometers (12 miles) north of Qatari capital Doha.
A distant relative of Qatar’s ruling family, founder and chairman of Al Faisal Holdings (one of Qatar’s biggest conglomerates), and a billionaire whose business acumen had him recognized as one of the most influential Arab businessmen in the world, Sheikh Faisal had already amassed a substantial private collection of historically important regional artifacts, plus a few quirky pieces of interest, allowing visitors an intimate look into Qatari life and history.
In an interview with Qatari channel Alrayyan TV in 2018, Sheikh Faisal said that the museum started as a hobby.
“I used to collect items whenever I got the chance,” he said. “As my business grew, so did my collections, and soon I was able to collect more and more items until I decided to put them in the museum for the public to enjoy.”
His private cabinet of curiosities has since evolved into a 130-acre complex. Through the fort-like entrance gate lies an oryx reserve, an impressive riding school and stables, a duck pond and a mosque built with a quirky leaning minaret. There’s now even a five-star Marriott hotel, two cafes and the Zoufa restaurant serving modern Lebanese cuisine.
Of course, there’s also the super-sized museum, with a recently-opened car collection housing everything from vintage Rolls-Royces to wartime Jeeps and colorful Buicks. Outside you’ll find peacocks roaming the grounds, and signs warning drivers to be aware of horses and ostriches.
Visitors to the FBQ museum are free to explore the grounds and can even enter the stables to pat the horses.
Iceberg flotillas
debridge finance
Located on the west coast, Ilulissat is a pretty halibut- and prawn-fishing port on a dark rock bay where visitors can sit in pubs sipping craft beers chill-filtered by 100,000-year-old glacial ice.
It’s a place to be awed by the UNESCO World Heritage Icefjord where Manhattan skyscraper-sized icebergs disgorge from Greenland’s icecap to float like ghostly ships in the surrounding Disko Bay.
Small boats take visitors out to sail closely among the bay’s magnificent iceberg flotilla. But not too close.
“I was on my boat once and saw one of these icebergs split in two. The pieces fell backwards into the sea and created a giant wave,” said David Karlsen, skipper of the pleasure-boat, Katak. “…I didn’t hang around.”
Disko Bay’s other giants are whales. From June to September breaching humpback whales join the likes of fin and minke whales feasting on plankton. Whale-watching is excellent all around Greenland’s craggy coastline.
Whales are eaten here. Visitors shouldn’t be surprised to encounter the traditional Greenlandic delicacy of mattak — whale-skin and blubber that when tasted is akin to chewing on rubber. Inuit communities have quotas to not only hunt the likes of narwhals but also polar bears, musk-ox and caribou — which can also appear on menus.

Curiosity has maintained pristine pieces of the Cumberland sample in a “doggy bag” so that the team could have the rover revisit it later, even miles away from the site where it was collected. The team developed and tested innovative methods in its lab on Earth before sending messages to the rover to try experiments on the sample.
changelly exchange
In a quest to see whether amino acids, the building blocks of proteins, existed in the sample, the team instructed the rover to heat up the sample twice within SAM’s oven. When it measured the mass of the molecules released during heating, there weren’t any amino acids, but they found something entirely unexpected.
An intriguing detection
The team was surprised to detect small amounts of decane, undecane and dodecane, so it had to conduct a reverse experiment on Earth to determine whether these organic compounds were the remnants of the fatty acids undecanoic acid, dodecanoic acid and tridecanoic acid, respectively.
The scientists mixed undecanoic acid into a clay similar to what exists on Mars and heated it up in a way that mimicked conditions within SAM’s oven. The undecanoic acid released decane, just like what Curiosity detected.
Each fatty acid remnant detected by Curiosity was made with a long chain of 11 to 13 carbon atoms. Previous molecules detected on Mars were smaller, meaning their atomic weight was less than the molecules found in the new study, and simpler.
“It’s notable that non-biological processes typically make shorter fatty acids, with less than 12 carbons,” said study coauthor Dr. Amy Williams, associate professor of geology at the University of Florida and assistant director of the Astraeus Space Institute, in an email. “Larger and more complex molecules are likely what are required for an origin of life, if it ever occurred on Mars.”
Everyone is talking about Greenland. Here’s what it’s like to visit
cow fi
A few months ago, Greenland was quietly getting on with winter, as the territory slid deeper into the darkness that envelops the world’s northerly reaches at this time of year.
But President Donald Trump’s musings about America taking over this island of 56,000 largely Inuit people, halfway between New York and Moscow, has seen Greenland shaken from its frozen Arctic anonymity.
Denmark, for whom Greenland is an autonomous crown dependency, has protested it’s not for sale. Officials in Greenland, meanwhile, have sought to assert the territory’s right to independence.
The conversation continues to intensify. A contentious March 28 visit to a US military installation by Usha Vance, the second lady, accompanied by her husband, Vice President JD Vance, was the latest in a series of events to focus attention on Trump’s ambitions for Greenland.
The visit was originally planned as a cultural exchange, but was shortened following complaints from Greenland Prime Minister Mute B. Egede.
Had the Vances prolonged their scheduled brief visit, they would’ve discovered a ruggedly pristine wildernesses steeped in rich Indigenous culture.
An inhospitable icecap several miles deep covers 80% of Greenland, forcing the Inuit to dwell along the shorelines in brightly painted communities. Here, they spend brutally cold winters hunting seals on ice under the northern lights in near perpetual darkness. Although these days, they can also rely on community stores.
The problem for travelers over the years has been getting to Greenland via time-consuming indirect flights. That’s changing. Late in 2024, the capital Nuuk opened a long-delayed international airport. From June 2025, United Airlines will be operating a twice-weekly direct service from Newark to Nuuk.
Two further international airports are due to open by 2026 — Qaqortoq in South Greenland and more significantly in Ilulissat, the island’s only real tourism hotspot.
Curiosity rover makes ‘arguably the most exciting organic detection to date on Mars’
bungee exchange
The NASA Curiosity rover has detected the largest organic molecules found to date on Mars, opening a window into the red planet’s past. The newly detected compounds suggest complex organic chemistry may have occurred in the planet’s past — the kind necessary for the origin of life, according to new research.
The organic compounds, which include decane, undecane and dodecane, came to light after the rover analyzed a pulverized 3.7 billion-year-old rock sample using its onboard mini lab called SAM, short for Sample Analysis at Mars.
Scientists believe the long chains of molecules could be fragments of fatty acids, which are organic molecules that are chemical building blocks of life on Earth and help form cell membranes. But such compounds can also be formed without the presence of life, created when water interacts with minerals in hydrothermal vents.
The molecules cannot currently be confirmed as evidence of past life on the red planet, but they add to the growing list of compounds that robotic explorers have discovered on Mars in recent years. A study detailing the findings was published Monday in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
The detection of the fragile molecules also encourages astrobiologists that if any biosignatures, or past signs of life, ever existed on Mars, they are likely still detectable despite the harsh solar radiation that has bombarded the planet for tens of millions of years.
“Ancient life, if it happened on Mars, it would have released some complex and fragile molecules,” said lead study author Dr. Caroline Freissinet, research scientist at the French National Centre for Scientific Research in the Laboratory for Atmospheres, Observations, and Space in Guyancourt, France. “And because now we know that Mars can preserve these complex and fragile molecules, it means that we could detect ancient life on Mars.”
Why there’s a huge collection of vintage cars stored in the middle of the desert
base bridge
Back at the turn of the 21st century, Qatar was a country with few cultural attractions to keep visitors and residents entertained. Yet the Sheikh Faisal Bin Qassim Al Thani Museum — known as the FBQ Museum — was a place that most people visited as an alternative to the then-still rather ramshackle National Museum of Qatar.
You had to make an appointment, and drive out into the desert, getting lost a few times along the way, but then you were welcomed to the lush Al Samriya Farm with a cup of tea and some cake. The highlight was being allowed into a space crammed full with shelves and vitrines holding all sorts of eclectic artifacts from swords to coins — with the odd car and carriage standing in the grounds.
It wasn’t necessarily the kind of museum you’d find elsewhere in the world, but it was definitely a sight that needed seeing.
Today, it has grown and now claims to be one of the world’s largest private museums. It holds over 30,000 items, including a fleet of traditional dhow sailboats, and countless carpets. There’s also an entire house that once stood in Damascus, Syria.
There are archaeological finds dating to the Jurassic age, ancient copies of the Quran, a section that details the importance of pearling within Qatar’s history, and jewelry dating to the 17th century.
There are also items from 2022’s FIFA World Cup in Qatar including replica trophies, balls used in the games, entry passes, football jerseys and even shelves full of slightly creepy dolls and children’s plush animals.
Some of the more disturbing exhibits include various items of Third Reich paraphernalia in the wartime room, and, strangely enough, several showcases of birds’ legs with marking rings on them. Basically, whatever you can think of, you have a very good chance of finding it here.
Rumor even has it that behind a locked door is a room filled with the late Princess Diana’s dresses and other memorabilia, accessible only to a select few visitors. Another door hides a room, no longer open to the public, filled with collectibles of the late Saddam Hussein.
Remote and rugged

A more organic way to see this coast is by the multi-day coastal ferry, the long-running Sarfaq Ittuk, of the Arctic Umiaq Line. It’s less corporate than the modern cruise ships and travelers get to meet Inuit commuters. Greenland is pricey. Lettuce in a local community store might cost $10, but this coastal voyage won’t break the bank.
The hot ticket currently for exploring Greenland’s wilder side is to head to the east coast facing Europe. It’s raw and sees far fewer tourists, with a harshly dramatic coastline of fjords where icebergs drift south. There are no roads and the scattered population of just over 3,500 people inhabit a coastline roughly the distance from New York to Denver.
A growing number of small expedition vessels probe this remote coast for its frosted scenery and wildlife. Increasingly popular is the world’s largest fjord system of Scoresby Sound with its sharp-fanged mountains and hanging valleys choked by glaciers. Sailing north is the prosaically named North East Greenland National Park, fabulous for spotting wildlife on the tundra.
Travelers come to see polar bears which, during the northern hemisphere’s summer, move closer to land as the sea-ice melts. There are also musk oxen, great flocks of migrating geese, Arctic foxes and walrus.
Some of these animals are fair game for the local communities. Perhaps Greenland’s most interesting cultural visit is to a village that will take longer to learn how to pronounce than actually walk around — Ittoqqortoormiit. Five hundred miles north of its neighboring settlement, the 345 locals are frozen in for nine months of the year. Ships sail in to meet them during the brief summer melt between June and August.
Locked in by ice, they’ve retained traditional habits.
“My parents hunt nearly all their food,” said Mette Barselajsen, who owns Ittoqqortoormiit’s only guesthouse. “They prefer the old ways, burying it in the ground to ferment and preserve it. Just one muskox can bring 440 pounds of meat.”
