At least that’s the opinion of Joel Corry , an NFL agent for 16 years who now writes on NFL http://www.sbwire.com/press-releases/p90x3-reviews/sbwire-455028.htm contract and salary-cap issues for CBS Sports and the National Football Post. As Corry notes, the 49ers can exercise a fifth-year option on Smith’s rookie contract. They have until May 3 to exercise the option, which would equal the 2014 transition tag for linebackers. The amount, which was $8.358 million last year, is expected to be about $9.25 million this season.

Glucose levels are lower in humans with more brown fat.” According to the investigators, approximately 50 g of white fat stores more than 300 kilocalories of energy, while 50 g of brown fat may burn up to 300 kilocalories a day. The researchers already knew that cold temperatures stimulate brown fat, causing it to burn more energy. But the underlying mechanisms were unknown. “When we are cold, we first activate our brown fat because it burns energy and releases heat to protect us. When that energy is insufficient, muscle contracts mechanically, or shivers, thereby generating heat.
