[ "Zwift has delivered on the first of their many promised expansions: real world courses. ", "Back when I first discussed the service with them a year ago, they noted that they’d eventually see opportunities to partner with race organizers for creating virtual versions of their events.", "\n\nThe idea being twofold here: Events that could be ridden virtually at the exact same time as the actual race (ideal for folks such as deployed soldiers unable to attend), and then just cases where people could train and otherwise ride the event course ahead of time. ", "This has benefits for training, but also just event PR aspects.", "\n\nUp until this point the company has been focusing on fictional locales – such as Watopia in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. ", "Today though Zwift rolled out the first real world course they’ve done: Richmond, Virginia. ", "I know, it’s not as sexy as…well…anywhere else really (yes, I’ve been). ", "But, it’s home to the upcoming UCI 2015 Road World Championships, which will be held in Richmond from September 19th to 27th.", "\n\nAnd with that obvious cycling tie-in, it seems like a natural fit. ", "In this case, Zwift partnered with Richmond 2015 on the effort (who I turn is partnered with the UCI on the event). ", "This sort of partnership is something we haven’t really seen from most of the trainer app companies to date. ", "Most of those partnerships have been at levels such as Ironman, or local events. ", "Going to a major UCI event is kinda an entirely different ball game.", "\n\nBuilding the Course:\n\nI was curious how exactly Zwift was going about re-creating the 3D world of Richmond. ", "Obviously there are other trainer apps out there that use Google Earth to dynamically show you a 3D world as you cycle. ", "Most of these tend to be sorta…unreal…feeling though, despite trying to feel real. ", "Then there are of course manually built fake worlds, which tend to feel very realistic, but that’s because you aren’t comparing them to any actual real location.", "\n\nIn Zwift’s case, they started with a video of the course provided by the event organizers. ", "This was then combined with GPS log file data they obtained (.FIT & .GPX) to generate the road data. ", "In the middle of all that, they sent a team member out to Richmond as well.", "\n\nNext, they layered in USGS survey data for the correct terrain height. ", "The challenge they noted was that the data they received from all these sources wasn’t terribly awesome once combined, which is especially true in urban environments with buildings. ", "So they had a fair bit of editing the data to make it line up correctly.", "\n\nThey also leveraged Google Street View quite a bit when it came time for their development artists to start building the models. ", "When I asked about how and where they drew the virtual line on recreating a given building/monument/etc, Jon Mayfield of Zwift noted:\n\n“We used our best judgment. ", "We wanted the feel of the Richmond VA without our artists literally going off into the weeds modeling 3d assets that don’t really matter. ", "While watching the course video we’d make note of certain land marks that stood out (a church steeple, a factory, overpass, etc) and we tried to make sure many of those were in.”", "\n\nYou see that within some of the course components. ", "For example, there’s a monument early in the course that in real life is a Robert E. Lee on a horse (photo taken by a DCR reader, also above in Google Street View). ", "But in Zwift it’s actually a bike:\n\nThe effort started about a month ago, and Zwift noted that only a portion of the game development team was working on it. ", "Obviously it’s likely a goal of Zwift’s to increase these sort of marketing partnerships, since they likely drive both users to their platform, as well as money from partnerships. ", "Jon said that “it’s feasible for us to make more courses if they prove to be a hit, especially for race type events. ", "We’re strong on the community/social aspect of our product, so we have to be careful about separating users too much between many courses.“", "\n\nWhich is definitely true, and one of the biggest reasons that I think Zwift has been successful to date: They only have a single course. ", "Many other cycling 3D worlds have numerous courses which spreads out the users and makes for lame game play.", "\n\nRiding the Course:\n\nI gave the course a ride today over lunch, mostly just out of curiosity. ", "Unlike previous times when I’ve launched the app, I’m now presented with a new challenges option. ", "This was also added today, and allows you to compete against various personal challenges. ", "Since riding 797 miles on my trainer seemed like a painful goal, I went with climbing Mt. Everest instead.", "\n\nWith that out of the way I was off on my ride. ", "At this point it was just about sunrise in Richmond at 7AM, though that was a bit of pure dumb luck. ", "The day/night cycles automatically on a short schedule just like on Zwift island.", "\n\nThe first portion of the 10-mile long course is mostly in the downtown area. ", "Perhaps because it was dark, or perhaps because it was a non-vibrant city, this wasn’t terribly exciting for me.", "\n\nI think the realism in the city environment is lost a bit during tight turns, as the camera doesn’t ‘tilt’ like you would normally corner a turn, so it feels unrealistic. ", "Whereas in the fictional Zwift world, there’s no places on the course that have 90° turns, so you don’t actually ever notice it.", "\n\nNonetheless, I kept on chugging along. ", "There were some 80-90 other riders on the course at that time of day, disproportionally Australian. ", "And the smack talk was definitely flowing.", "\n\nEventually though, sunrise rose, and with that I got out of the city a bit:\n\nFor fun, here’s what I believe to be that same spot on Google Streetview:\n\nSo the gist of things is definitely in the ballpark.", "\n\nOnce I got to this portion I actually rather enjoyed the course. ", "I think that’s because it was less about city and more about parklands of sorts – an area that Zwift already excels at. ", "Further, there weren’t really many sharp turns here, so things felt more natural.", "\n\nSoon I’d find myself a bit of a cobbles section. ", "Interestingly, you could clearly feel the change in resistance on the Tacx Neo the split second I hit this. ", "Not saying you could feel cobbles, but rather the friction changed.", "\n\nUnfortunately there isn’t Google Street View imagery here, since it’s normally a closed road – but indeed, there are cobbles going up the hill (the Zwift image above is taken quite a bit further up the hill than the photo below).", "\n\nThen from there it was into some neighborhoods for a while.", "\n\nThen finally as I hit about the 10.4-mile marker I cleared the finish line, and could begin my 2nd loop.", "\n\nAt that point though, my actual lunch was calling, so I called it a day.", "\n\nAnd, I made stellar progress towards my Mt. Everest goal, now only 99% remaining!", "\n\nIn addition to the photos above, I gave my first go at using YouTube’s Live Streaming functionality with a desktop computer. ", "I’ve previously toyed around with this on mobile devices and action cams. ", "While I got the software all setup without too much incident, I left the defaults in the software for the recording rate, which did it at some very non-High Definition levels.", "\n\nSo, if you’re interested in watching my entire go of the course – you’re welcome to check out the YouTube video below. ", "It just looks like…non-awesome sauce because of the dismally low recording rate. ", "Don’t worry though, I’ve already changed the setting so I’m good to go for next time.", "\n\nIt’s worth noting that right now when you connect to Zwift you don’t have any choice in the course you’re given. ", "There’s only one course at a time. ", "The schedule for which course you’ll get is a bit wonky over the next month, but here ya go:\n\nSept 1st – 8th Richmond\n\nSept 9th – 12th Watopia\n\nSept 13th – 15th Richmond\n\nSept 16th – 19th Watopia\n\nSept 20th – 27th Richmond\n\nSept 28th+ Watopia\n\nZwift says eventually they’ll allow you to select a course, but that’s not in the immediate cards. ", "I think they’re trying to carefully balance ensuring that they always have large quantities of riders in the courses to keep them more interesting.", "\n\nThey noted that “the course will be available in some way for many months to come. ", "It may be on a limited schedule, or we may have regularly scheduled events on it every week. ", "It’s too early to say, but it’s a nice asset for us to have and use as we see fit.”", "\n\nUploads to Strava:\n\nFinally, it’s worth mentioning that like usual my Zwift ride automatically uploaded to Strava. ", "However more important here is that it was tagged as a Virtual Ride.", "\n\nVirtual Rides are important because it ensures that folks using Zwift (and other trainer apps) don’t incorrectly show up in regular Strava leaderboards. ", "So at the bottom, where there would normally be segments it’s a bit slim right now:\n\nOver time though, as more segments are set via virtual segments, they’ll start showing up here.", "\n\nBut even if you look at some of these already, all of them are via Zwift riders (only) today alone. ", "Some 403 people in the first portion of the first day already. ", "Impressive.", "\n\nPretty cool stuff, by both Zwift and Strava. ", "I’m looking forward to seeing other partnerships. ", "For example, I’d love to see the final stage at the Tour de France in Zwift (in Paris) – it’s just about the perfect length for it too!", "\n\nWith that – thanks for reading!" ]

[ "Powerlifting\n\nPowerlifting is a strength sport that consists of three attempts at maximal weight on three lifts: squat, bench press, and deadlift. ", "As in the sport of Olympic weightlifting, it involves the athlete attempting a maximal weight single lift of a barbell loaded with weight plates. ", "Powerlifting evolved from a sport known as \"odd lifts\", which followed the same three-attempt format but used a wider variety of events, akin to strongman competition. ", "Eventually odd lifts became standardized to the current three.", "\n\nIn competition, lifts may be performed equipped or un-equipped (typically referred to as 'raw' lifting or 'classic' in the IPF specifically). ", "Equipment in this context refers to a supportive bench shirt or squat/deadlift suit or briefs. ", "In some federations, knee wraps are permitted in the equipped but not un-equipped division; in others, they may be used in both equipped and un-equipped lifting. ", "Weight belts, knee sleeves, wrist wraps and special footwear may also be used, but are not considered when distinguishing equipped from un-equipped lifting.", "\n\nCompetitions take place across the world. ", "Powerlifting has been a Paralympic sport (bench press only) since 1984 and, under the IPF, is also a World Games sport. ", "Local, national and international competitions have also been sanctioned by other federations operating independently of the IPF.", "\n\nHistory\n\nEarly history\nThe roots of powerlifting are found in traditions of strength training stretching back as far as ancient Greek and ancient Persian times. ", "The idea of powerlifting originated in Ancient China and Greece, as men lifted stones to prove their strength and manhood. ", "Weightlifting has been an official sport in the Olympic Games since 1896. ", "The modern sport originated in the United Kingdom and the United States in the 1950s. ", "Previously, the weightlifting governing bodies in both countries had recognized various \"odd lifts\" for competition and record purposes. ", "During the 1950s, Olympic weightlifting declined in the United States, while strength sports gained many new followers. ", "People did not like the Olympic lifts Clean and Press, Snatch and Clean and Jerk. ", " In 1958, the AAU's National Weightlifting Committee decided to begin recognizing records for odd lifts. ", "A national championship was tentatively scheduled for 1959, but never happened. ", "The first genuine national \"meet\" was held in September 1964 under the auspices of the York Barbell Company. ", "Ironically, York Barbell owner Bob Hoffman had been a longtime adversary of the sport, but his company was now making powerlifting equipment to make up for the sales it had lost on Olympic equipment.", "\n\nIn 1964, some powerlifting categories were added to the Tokyo Paralympic Games for men with spinal cord injuries. ", "More categories of lifting were added as time went by. ", "In the 2000 Paralympic Games in Sydney, women were finally invited to participate in powerlifting. ", "Finally, both men and women were allowed to compete in all 10 weight classes of powerlifting.", "\n\nDuring the late 1950s, Hoffman's influence on Olympic lifting and his predominately Olympic-based magazine Strength and Health were beginning to come under increasing pressure from Joe Weider's organization. ", "In order to combat the growing influence of Weider, Hoffman started another magazine, Muscular Development, which would be focused more on bodybuilding and the fast-growing interest in odd lift competitions. ", "The magazine's first editor was John Grimek. ", "During the late 1950s and early 1960s, various odd lift events gradually developed into the specific lifts of the bench press, squat, and deadlift, and they were lifted in that order. ", "Hoffman became more and more influential in the development of this new lifting sport and organized the Weightlifting Tournament of America in 1964, effectively the first USA National championships. ", "In 1965, the first named USA National Championships were held. ", "During the same period, lifting in Britain also had factions. ", "In the late 1950s, because members of the ruling body (BAWLA) were only interested in the development of Olympic lifting, a breakaway organization called the Society of Amateur Weightlifters had been formed to cater for the interests of lifters who were not particularly interested in Olympic lifting.", "\n\nAlthough at that time there were 42 recognized lifts, the \"Strength Set\" (biceps curl, bench press, and squat) soon became the standard competition lifts, and both organizations held Championships on these lifts (as well as on the Olympic lifts) until 1965. ", "In 1966, the Society of Amateur Weightlifters rejoined BAWLA and, in order to fall into line with the American lifts, the biceps curl was dropped and replaced with the deadlift. ", "The first British Championship was held in 1966. ", "During the late 1960s and at the beginning of the 1970s, various friendly international contests were held. ", "At the same time, in early November of each year and to commemorate Hoffman's birthday, a prestigious lifting contest was held. ", "In 1971, it was decided to make this event the \"World Weightlifting Championships\". ", "The event was held on the morning of 6 November 1971, in York, Pennsylvania. ", "There was no such thing as teams and thus the event consisted of a large group of American lifters, four British lifters, and one lifter from the West Indies. ", "All of the referees were American. ", "Weights were in pounds. ", "Lifting order was \"rising bar\", and the first lift was the bench press. ", "There was no such thing as a bench shirt or squat suit, and various interpretations were held regarding the use and length of knee wraps and weightlifting belts. ", "The IPF rules system did not exist yet, nor had world records been established.", "\n\nBecause of the lack of formalized rules, some disputes occurred.", "\n\nThere was no 52 kg class, 100 kg class, or 125 kg class.", "\n\nAt the first World Championships, one of the American super-heavyweights, Jim Williams, benched 660 lbs on his second attempt (no shirt), and almost locked out 680 lbs on a third attempt. ", "Some other notable lifts were Larry Pacifico benching 515 lbs in the 90 kg class, John Kuc deadlifting 820 lbs, and Vince Anello attempting 800 lbs at 90 kg. ", "Hugh Cassidy and Williams both totaled 2,160 lbs, but Cassidy got the win because of a lower bodyweight in the Super heavyweight division.", "\n\nIn 1972, the 'second' AAU World Championships were held, this time over two days – 10 and 11 November. ", "This time there were 8 lifters from Great Britain (two of whom, Ron Collins and John Pegler, did stints as Referees), six Canadians, two Puerto Ricans, three Zambians, and one from the West Indies. ", "With 67 lifters in all, the other 47 were Americans. ", "Lifts were still measured in pounds, the bench press was the first lift, and there were still no suits, power belts, or fancy wraps. ", "New Zealand's Precious McKenzie won his 'second' world title with 550 kg at 56. ", "Mike Shaw 'lost' his world title, won the previous year, to American Jack Keammerer. ", "Ron Collins made up for his 'bomb' on the bench in 1971 and stormed to the 75 kg title. ", "Pacifico just won against another American, Mel Hennessey, at 110 kg, both with enormous benches of 260 kg and 255 kg. ", "At Super (over 110 kg) John Kuc beat Jim Williams with an incredible 2,350 lbs total (raw). ", "Kuc squatting 905 lbs for a record squat and attempting a 397½ (875 lbs) deadlift again, and Williams benching a massive 307½ (675 lbs) – the greatest bench press ever at the time, before just missing with 317½ (700 lbs). ", "Jon Cole, the Super heavyweight winner of the US Senior Championships 1972 and holder of the greatest total at that time with 1,075 kg (2,370 lbs), didn't show up to take on Kuc.", "\n\nIPF and after\nThe International Powerlifting Federation was formed immediately after the contest, and so none of the lifts could be yet registered as official world records. ", "The 1973 Worlds was also held in York. ", "This time there were only 47 entrants: one Swedish, one Puerto Rican (Peter Fiore, who was lifting for Zambia), two Canadians, one West Indian, eight British, and the rest Americans. ", "The officiating became more international and included Tony Fitton and Terry Jordan from Britain, a Canadian, and a Zambian. ", "American Bob Crist was the IPF President, and another American, Clarence Johnson, was Vice-President. ", "1973 was the first time that the lifts were done in the order now recognized – squat, bench press, deadlift (although still lifting in pounds). ", "Precious Mackenzie won his third World title, easily beating American teenager Lamar Gant. ", "1974 was the first time that teams had to be selected in advance. ", "With 74 entrants, this was the largest Worlds so far. ", "The 52 kg class was introduced, and nine lifters entered. ", "In 1975, the World Championships was held outside America for the first time, at the town hall in Birmingham, hosted by Vic Mercer. ", "82 lifters entered. ", "Unusually for a competition, the super-heavyweights lifted first. ", "This was because the television company filming the event was only interested in filming the \"big guys\". ", "Hoffman sent over tons of equipment for this contest and did not take it back, and local legend says it is all still being used in Birmingham and the wider West Midlands region.", "\n\nThe establishment of the IPF in 1973 spurred the establishment of the EPF (European Powerlifting Federation) in 1974. ", "Since it was closely associated with bodybuilding and women had been competing as bodybuilders for years, the new sport was opened to them very quickly. ", "The first U. S. national championships for women were held in 1978 and the IPF added women's competition in 1979. ", "In the US, the Amateur Sports Act of 1978 required that each Olympic or potential Olympic sport must have its own national governing body by November 1980. ", "As a result, the AAU lost control of virtually every amateur sport. ", "The USPF was founded in 1980 as the new national governing body for American powerlifting. ", "Soon, controversy over drug testing would cause powerlifting to splinter into multiple federations. ", "In 1981, the American Drug Free Powerlifting Association (ADFPA), led by Brother Bennett, became the first federation to break away from the USPF, citing the need to implement effective drug testing in the sport. ", "Meanwhile, the IPF was moving towards adopting drug testing at international meets, and requiring member nations to implement drug testing at national meets as well. ", "In 1982, drug testing was introduced to the IPF men's international championship, although the USPF championships that year did not have drug testing.", "\n\nThe IPF's push for drug testing was resisted by some American lifters, and in 1982 Larry Pacifico and Ernie Frantz founded the American Powerlifting Federation (APF), which advertised its categorical opposition to all drug testing.", "\n\nIn 1987, the American Powerlifting Association (APA) and World Powerlifting Alliance (WPA) were formed by Scott Taylor. ", "The APA and WPA offer both drug tested and non-tested categories in most of their competitions. ", "As of 2018 the WPA has 50+ affiliate nations.", "\n\nUltimately, the USPF failed to conform to IPF demands and was expelled from the international body in 1997, with the ADFPA, now named USA Powerlifting (USAPL), taking its place. ", "Despite the trend towards more and more federations, each with their own rules and standards of performance, some powerlifters have attempted to bring greater unity to the sport. ", "For example, 100% RAW promoted unequipped competition and merged with another federation, Anti-Drug Athletes United (ADAU), in 2013. ", "The Revolution Powerlifting Syndicate (RPS), founded by Gene Rychlak in 2011, might also be considered a move towards greater unity, as the RPS breaks the tradition of charging lifters membership fees to a specific federation in addition to entry fees for each competition. ", "Also, some meet promoters have sought to bring together top lifters from different federations, outside existing federations' hierarchy of local, regional, national and international meets; a prominent example of this is the Raw Unity Meet (RUM), held annually since 2007.", "\n\nDevelopments in equipment and rules\nAs new equipment was developed, it came to distinguish powerlifting federations from one another. ", "Weight belts and knee wraps (originally simple Ace bandages) predated powerlifting, but in 1983 John Inzer invented the first piece of equipment distinct to powerlifters—the bench shirt. ", "Bench shirts and squat/deadlift suits (operating on the same principle) became ubiquitous in powerlifting, but only some federations adopted the latest and most supportive canvas, denim, and multiply polyester designs, while others such as the IPF maintained more restrictive rules on which supportive equipment could be used. ", "The Monolift, a rack in which the bar catches swing out and eliminate the walkout portion of the squat, was invented by Ray Madden and first used in competition in 1992. ", "This innovation was adopted by some federations and forbidden in others. ", "Other inventions included specialized squat bars and deadlift bars, moving away from the IPF standard of using the same bar for all three lifts.", "\n\nThe rules of powerlifting have also evolved and differentiated. ", "For example, in ADFPA/USAPL competition, the \"press\" command on the bench press was used, not used, and then used again, following a 2006 IPF motion to reinstate this rule. ", "IPF rules also mandate a \"start\" command at the beginning of the bench press. ", "Many other federations, for example the Natural Athlete Strength Association (NASA), have never used the \"start\" command. ", "As a further example of diversifying rules of performance, in 2011 the Southern Powerlifting Federation (SPF) eliminated the \"squat\" command at the beginning of the squat. ", "Some federations also now allow the sumo variation of the deadlift, which varies with the feet being considerably wider apart and some tension taken off the lower spine being taken up by the legs. ", "Many communities and federations do not class the sumo variation as a technical deadlift.", "\n\nSupportive equipment\nIn powerlifting, supportive equipment refers to supportive shirts, briefs, suits, and sometimes knee wraps made of materials that store elastic potential energy and thereby assist the three lifts contested in the sport: squat, bench press and deadlift.", "\nSome federations allow single ply knee sleeves, which contestant can put on and off by himself, and wraps for wrists in raw competition, while some don't and there are also some federations that hold raw records with and without wraps like GPA. ", "Straps are also used, as help with deadlift in case of a weak grip but are not allowed by any federations in official competitions. ", "A belt is the only supportive equipment that is allowed by all federations in raw competition. ", "The use of supportive equipment distinguishes 'equipped' and 'un-equipped' or 'raw' divisions in the sport, and 'equipped' and 'unequipped' records in the competition lifts. ", "The wide differences between equipped and unequipped records in the squat and bench suggest that supportive equipment confers a substantial advantage to lifters in these disciplines. ", "This is less evident in the case of the deadlift, where the lack of an eccentric component to the lift minimizes how much elastic energy can be stored in a supportive suit. ", "Supportive equipment should not be confused with the equipment on which the lifts are performed, such as a bench press bench, conventional or monolift stand for squat or the barbell and discs; nor with personal accessories such as a weightlifting belt that may allow greater weight to be lifted, but by mechanisms other than storing elastic energy. ", "Chalk is commonly used by lifters to dry the hands, especially to reduce the risk of folding and pinching of skin while gripping the deadlift. ", "Chalk can also be added to the shoulders for squatting and on the back for bench pressing to reduce sliding on the bench.", "\n\nPrinciples of operation \nSupportive equipment is used to increase the weight lifted in powerlifting exercises. ", " A snug garment is worn over a joint or joints (such as the shoulders or hips). ", "This garment deforms during the downward portion of a bench press or squat, or the descent to the bar in the deadlift, storing elastic potential energy. ", " On the upward portion of each lift, the elastic potential energy is transferred to the barbell as kinetic energy, aiding in the completion of the lift.", "\nSome claim that supportive equipment prevents injuries by compressing and stabilizing the joints over which it worn. ", "For example, the bench shirt is claimed to support and protect the shoulders. ", "Critics point out that the greater weights used with supportive equipment and the equipment's tendency to change the pattern of the movement may compromise safety, as in the case of the bar moving towards the head during the upward portion of the shirted bench press.", "\n\nMaterial and construction \nDifferent materials are used in the construction of supportive equipment. ", "Squat suits may be made of varying types of polyester, or of canvas. ", "The latter fabric is less elastic, and therefore considered to provide greater 'stopping power' at the bottom of the movement but less assistance with the ascent. ", "Bench shirts may be made of polyester or denim, where the denim again provides a less-elastic alternative to the polyester. ", "Knee wraps are made of varying combinations of cotton and elastic.", "\nSupportive equipment can be constructed in different ways to suit lifters' preferences. ", "A squat or deadlift suit may be constructed for a wide or a narrow stance; and a bench shirt may be constructed with 'straight' sleeves (perpendicular to the trunk of the lifter) or sleeves that are angled towards the abdomen. ", "The back of the bench shirt may be closed or open, and the back panel may or may not be of the same material as the front of the shirt. ", "Similarly, 'hybrid' squat suits can include panels made from canvas and polyester, in an effort to combine the strengths of each material. ", "When two or more panels overlay one another in a piece of supportive equipment, that equipment is described as 'multi-ply', in contrast to 'single-ply' equipment made of one layer of material throughout.", "\n\nRaw powerlifting\nUnequipped or \"raw\" (often styled as RAW) or classic powerlifting has been codified in response to the proliferation and advancement of bench shirts and squat/deadlift suits. ", "The AAU first began its raw division in 1994 and the term \"raw\" was coined by Al Siegal who later formed the ADAU in 1996. ", "The 100% RAW federation was founded in 1999; within a decade, many established federations came to recognize \"raw\" divisions in addition to their traditional (open) divisions permitting single-ply or multi-ply equipment. ", "RAW during this time frame however was looked upon as a beginners stage by the elite lifters in powerlifting. ", "In January 2008 the Raw Unity Meet (simply known as \"RUM\") was formed by Eric Talmant and Johnny Vasquez. ", "This contest became the turning point in raw lifting. ", "It was a crucial contest that gathered the best lifters under one roof regardless of gear worn to compete without equipment. ", "Brian Schwab, Amy Weisberger, Beau Moore, Tony Conyers, Arnold Coleman and Dave Ricks were among the first Elite lifters to remove their equipment and compete raw. ", "RUM spearheaded raw lifting into what it has become today. ", "United Powerlifting Association (UPA) established a standard for raw powerlifting in 2008 and USAPL held the first Raw Nationals in the same year. ", "Eventually, IPF recognized raw lifting with the sanction of a \"Classic 'Unequipped' World Cup\" in 2012, and published its own set of standards for raw lifting. ", "By this time, the popularity of raw lifting has surged to the point where raw lifters came to predominate over equipped lifters in local meets. ", "Note that the IPF's use of the word 'classic' to describe raw powerlifting is differentiated from most other powerlifting federations' use of the word to differentiate between 'classic raw' and 'modern raw': classic raw is still unequipped but allows the use of knee wraps while modern raw allows knee sleeves at most. ", " The IPF does not allow knee wraps in its unequipped competitions and would thus be considered 'modern raw' but the IPF does not recognize the word 'raw.'", "\n\nThe use of knee sleeves in unequipped powerlifting has brought about much debate as to whether certain neoprene knee sleeves can actually assist a lifter during the squat. ", "Some lifters purposely wear knee sleeves which are excessively tight and have been known to use plastic bags and have others to assist them get their knee sleeves on. ", "This led to the IPF mandating that lifters put on their knee sleeves unassisted.", "\n\nEquipped powerlifting \nEquipped lifters compete separately from raw lifters. ", "Equipped lifters will wear a squat suit, knee wraps, a bench shirt, and a deadlift suit. ", "These four things are what separate equipped lifters and raw lifters. ", "A squat suit is made of an elastic-like material, and a single-ply polyester layer. ", "This allows a competitor to spring out of the bottom of a squat (called \"pop out of the hole\" in Powerlifting circles) by maintaining rigidity, keeping him or her upright and encouraging their hips to remain parallel with the floor. ", "This allows lifters to lift more weight than would normally be possible without the suit. ", "There are also multi-ply suits giving the lifter even more rigidity, like that of a traditional canvas suit, with the same pop as a single-ply suit or briefs. ", "During the squat, lifters also tend to wear knee wraps. ", "Even though knee wraps will be a sub-classification of raw lifting it will still be worn by equipped lifters. ", "A raw lifter who would squat in knee wraps will have the weight lifted noted as \"in wraps\" to distinguish this from the other raw lifters. ", "Knee wraps are made out of the same, or very similar, elastic material as wrist wraps are made out of. ", "They are wrapped around the lifters knees very tightly with the lifter usually not being able to do it himself and needing someone to assist them in doing so. ", "The knee wraps are wrapped in a spiral or diagonal method. ", "The knee wraps build elastic energy during the eccentric part of the squat and once the lifter has hit proper depth the lifter will start the concentric part of the movement releasing this elastic energy and using it to help them move the weight upwards. ", "It gives the lifter more spring, or pop out of the hole of the squat resulting in a heavier and faster squat.", "\n\nFor the bench press, there are also single-ply and multi-ply bench shirts that work similarly to a squat suit. ", "It acts as artificial pectoral muscles and shoulder muscles for the lifter. ", "It resists the movement of the bench press by compressing and building elastic energy. ", "When the bar is still and the official gives the command to press the compression and elastic energy of the suit aids in the speed of the lift, and support of the weight that the lifter would not be able to provide for himself without the bench shirt. ", "In order to achieve proper tightness and fitting the lifter must be assisted when putting the bench shirt on for it is not possible to be done alone.", "\n\nFor the deadlift suit, there is single-ply and multi-ply as well. ", "The elastic energy is built when the lifter goes down to set up and place their grip on the bar before lifting even starts. ", "The deadlift suit aids in getting the weight off the floor, considered to be the first part of the movement, but not very helpful on the lockout portion of the deadlift, known as the second part of the movement.", "\n\nClasses and categories \nWeight Classes:\n\nMost powerlifting federations use the following weight classes:\n\nMen: 52 kg, 56 kg, 60 kg, 67.5 kg, 75 kg, 82.5 kg, 90 kg, 100 kg, 110 kg, 125 kg, 140 kg, 140 kg+\n\nWomen: 44 kg, 48 kg, 52 kg, 56 kg, 60 kg, 67.5 kg, 75 kg, 82.5 kg, 90 kg, 90 kg+\n\nHowever, in 2011, the IPF introduced the following new weight classes:\n\nIPF Weight Classes:\n\nMen: up to 53 kg (Sub-Junior/Junior), 59 kg, 66 kg, 74 kg, 83 kg, 93 kg, 105 kg, 120 kg, 120 kg+\n\nWomen: up to 43 kg (Sub-Junior/Junior), 47 kg, 52 kg, 57 kg, 63 kg, 72 kg, 84 kg, 84 kg+\n\nAge categories\n\nThis depends on the federation generally but averages are as follows:\n\n15-18 (Sub-Jr), 19-23 (Jr), Any age(Open), 40+(Masters)\n\nThe IPF uses the following age categories: sub-junior (18 and under), junior (19-23), open (24-39), masters 1 (40-49), masters 2 (50-59), masters 3 (60-69), masters 4 (70+). ", "Age category is dependent on the year of the participant's birth. ", "For example, if the participant turns 18 years old in January, he or she is still considered a Sub-junior until the end of that calendar year. ", "Other federations typically break the Masters' categories down to 5-year increments, for example, 40-44, 45-49, 50-54, etc. ", "Some federations also include a sub-master class from 33 (or 35) to 39.", "\n\nGrip\nThere are multiple types of grip in powerlifting. ", "Not all are allowed in competitions. ", "There are couple of classifications:\nconsidering the position of the barbell in the hand\n full grip - mostly used in squats, military press and push press\n fingertip grip - mostly used in deadlift \nconsidering the position of the thumb\n regular grip\n thumbless or suicide or false or monkey or open-hand grip - mostly used in squats and recreational bench press\n hook grip - sometimes used in deadlift\nconsidering the orientation of the palm\n prone/pronated or overhand or double overhand grip - used in bench press and deadlift; the last term is almost exclusively used when talking about deadlift\n reverse or supine/supinated or underhand grip - sometimes used in bench press\n alternated or mixed grip - one hand is supinated and the other is pronated; often used in deadlift\nconsidering the distance between hands - almost exclusively used when talking about bench press\n wide grip\n narrow grip\ncombinations\n thumbless mixed grip - sometimes used in deadlift\n\nCompetition \nA powerlifting competition takes place as follows:\n\nEach competitor is allowed three attempts on each of the squat, bench press, and deadlift, depending on their standing and the organization they are lifting in. ", "The lifter's best valid attempt on each lift counts toward the competition total. ", "For each weightclass, the lifter with the highest total wins. ", "In many meets, the lifter with the highest total relative to their weight class also wins. ", "If two or more lifters achieve the same total, the lighter lifter ranks above the heavier lifter.", "\n\nCompetitors are judged against other lifters of the same gender, weight class, and age. ", "This helps to ensure that the accomplishments of lifters like Lamar Gant, who has deadlifted 5 times his bodyweight, are recognized alongside those of Eddie Hall, the current All-time deadlift world record holder.", "\n\nComparisons of lifters and scores across different weight classes can also be made using handicapping systems. ", "World federations use the following ones: IPF Points (IPF), Glossbrenner (WPC), Reshel (APF, GPC, GPA, WUAP, IRP), Outstanding Lifter (aka OL or NASA), Schwartz/Malone, Siff; for cadet and junior categories Foster coefficient is mostly used, while for master categories (above 40 years old) McCulloch or Reshel coefficients. ", "Winner of a competition based on an official coefficient used by presiding world federation is called best lifter.", "\n\nDuring the 2016 World Open Powerlifting Championships, the three best competitors were Fedosienko Sergey, Summer Blaine, and Olech Jaroslaw.

", "The 2016 championships did not see the same athletic stand out that the 2015 championships did by athlete Samuel Ogden from Ohio.", "\n\nEvents \nIn a powerlifting competition, sometimes referred to as standard competition, there are three events: bench press, squat, and deadlift. ", "Placing is achieved via combined total. ", "Some variations of this are found at some meets such as \"push-pull only\" meets where lifters only compete in the bench press and deadlift, with the bench press coming first and the deadlift after.

", "Atty., ", "for plaintiff-appellee.", "\nDENNIS, Justice.", "\nDefendant W. D. Atkins, Jr. was charged by short form indictment with \"a theft of $20,373.46 in U.S. currency belonging to one Pamela B. Gray in violation of the provisions of R.S. 14:67.\" ", "Following a jury trial, defendant was found guilty as charged and sentenced to six years at hard labor. ", "On appeal Atkins relies upon ten assignments of error for reversal of his conviction and sentence.", "\n\nASSIGNMENTS OF ERROR NOS. ", "1 AND 2\nDefendant contends that the trial court erred in denying his motion to quash the indictment, both as to the indictment standing alone and as to the indictment when considered in light of the state's answers to the defendant's motion for a bill of particulars. ", "He presents four specific arguments for our consideration: (1) an essential averment was deleted from the short form indictment because of the failure to specify the value of the property taken; (2) the indictment and bill of information failed to state an offense which occurred within Lafayette Parish; (3) the indictment and answers to the bill of particulars failed to provide the defendant with adequate information concerning the charges against him; and (4) a transcript of defendant's deposition, taken in a civil case involving the same parties and introduced by stipulation at the hearing on the motion to quash, indicates defendant's innocence of the charged offense.", "\nWe will consider the arguments in the order presented:\n(1) The defendant's contention that the short form indictment was fatally defective for failure to set forth the value of the stolen property is unmeritorious. ", "The allegation that defendant was guilty of *1344 theft of \"$20,373.46 in U.S. currency\" sufficiently fulfills the requisites of the statutory short form indictment, since the value of all stolen property must, of necessity, be expressed in monetary terms.", "\n(2) Defendant's second argument in effect urges that the prosecution was brought in an improper venue because the indictment, along with the State's answers to the bill of particulars, does not allege that any element of the charged offense occurred in the parish where the trial was scheduled. ", "La.C.Cr.", "P. art. ", "611. ", "However, defendant's motion to quash the indictment did not contain an allegation that the venue was improper. ", "La.C.Cr.", "P. art. ", "615. ", "Nevertheless, even in the absence of a motion to quash for improper venue, the State must prove proper venue at trial beyond a reasonable doubt. ", "La.C.Cr.", "P. art. ", "615; State v. Frank, 355 So.2d 912 (La.1978); State v. Dillon, 260 La. 215, 255 So.2d 745 (1971). ", "While this Court may not weigh for sufficiency the State's evidence as to venue, when the jury has determined the issue adversely to the defendant by a verdict of guilty, we may, provided that the issue is presented by the defendant's motion for a new trial, grant relief if there was no evidence whatsoever as to the proper venue. ", "State v. Dillon, supra; see also, State v. Richard, 245 La. 465, 158 So.2d 828 (1963). ", "In the instant case, however, the defendant's motion for new trial contained no allegation that the State had failed to prove that the proper venue of the charged offense was Lafayette Parish. ", "Moreover, our review of the record indicates that there is substantial evidence that an \"act or element\" of the offense of theft occurred in Lafayette Parish. ", "Defendant's second contention relating to the motion to quash lacks merit.", "\n(3) Defendant contends that the trial court erred in determining that the short form indictment and the State's answer and amended answer to the bill of particulars gave him sufficient information to prepare a defense. ", "Article I, § 13 of the Louisiana Constitution of 1974 grants an accused the right to \"be informed of the nature and cause of the accusation against him.\" ", "One implementation of this constitutional guarantee is Louisiana Code of Criminal Procedure Article 484, which gives to a criminal defendant the right to require the district attorney to furnish a bill of particulars \"setting up more specifically the nature and cause of the charge against [him].\" ", "Although a defendant is not entitled by a bill of particulars to discover the details of the evidence with which the State expects to prove its case,[1] and although the trial court is vested with wide discretion in determining the sufficiency of the State's answers,[2] this Court has found reversible error in the failure to provide information of the nature and cause of the accusation against the accused as required by the constitution. ", "For example, in State v. Miller, 319 So.2d 339 (La.1975), in reversing a conviction on these grounds, this Court set forth some of the factors to be considered in determining whether a defendant was given all of the information to which he is constitutionally entitled:\n\"The state is required, upon defendant's motion, to provide a criminal defendant with enough information so that he can identify the criminal transaction. ", "There is no exact formula which can be applied to every charge to determine in a particular case whether a defendant has all of the information to which he is constitutionally entitled. ", "In general, however, the extent to which the bill should be granted turns on the complexity of the case. ", "If the crime is a single event, such as a murder, the scope of the bill will be less extensive than it will be if *1345 the crime involved is a series of occurrences, such as tax fraud or bootlegging. ", "When a crime charged may be committed in a number of different ways, this Court has always recognized the accentuated need for the state to furnish particulars. ", "Likewise, when the crime involves not a single occurrence but a series of occurrences, the state must supply enough information so that the accused can identify each criminal transaction. ", "319 So.2d at 342-3. [", "citations omitted]\nIn the instant case, the State's original answer to the defendant's motion for a bill of particulars provided little information relating to the acts which constituted the alleged theft. ", "However, prior to trial, the State amended its answers to provide a detailed summary of the manner in which the offense was committed. ", "Defendant was informed that he was charged with the theft of a specific amount of money from a particular identified client between the dates of February 3, 1975 and July 17, 1975 by taking them from an account in the American Bank & Trust Company in Baton Rouge which defendant had opened for the purpose of safekeeping and investment of the funds. ", "Although the State could not inform defendant of the exact time and manner of the taking the information was specific enough to enable him to identify the alleged criminal transaction and to prepare a defense. ", "Therefore, we find that defendant's contention relating to the sufficiency of the answers to the bill of particulars is meritless.", "\n(4) Defendant contends that the trial court erred in failing to quash the indictment because the defendant's deposition, which was taken in connection with a civil action involving the victim of the alleged offense and introduced by stipulation at the hearing on the motion to quash, indicated that the defendant was innocent of the charged offense.", "\nThe question of factual guilt or innocence of the offense charged is not properly raised by the motion to quash. ", "State v. Rembert, 312 So.2d 282 (La.1975). ", "Further, the only issue presented to the trial judge for his consideration was whether the indictment charging the defendant with theft was insufficient as a matter of law or unconstitutionally vague. ", "Since the instant objection was not contemporaneously urged, and since the trial judge could not at any rate have properly considered the issue of guilt or innocence in such a proceeding, defendant's contention is insubstantial.", "\n\nASSIGNMENT OF ERROR NO. ", "3\nDefendant contends that the trial court erred in failing to grant a motion for a continuance based upon the absence of a material witness. ", "La.C.Cr.", "P. art. ", "709, which governs applications for continuance based upon the unavailability of witnesses, provides:\n\"A motion for a continuance based upon the absence of a witness must state:\n\"(1) Facts to which the absent witness is expected to testify, showing the materiality of the testimony and the necessity for the presence of the witness at the trial;\n\"(2) Facts and circumstances showing a probability that the witness will be available at the time to which the trial is deferred; and\n\"(3) Facts showing due diligence used in an effort to procure attendance of the witness.\"", "\nIn the instant case, the victim of the alleged theft was a client of defendant, an attorney. ", "The State's theory of the case was that defendant wrongfully misappropriated funds which he received as the proceeds of a settlement between Mrs. Gray and an insurance company following the death of her husband. ", "Following the settlement, Mrs. Gray and defendant entered into a contract which allowed him to hold and invest the proceeds, at his discretion, for a certain period of time.", "\n*1346 Prior to trial, defendant sought a continuance because Janice Deshotels, his former secretary and a witness to the signing of the contract, was absent from the state and presently unavailable to testify at trial. ", "At the hearing on the motion, defendant's counsel stated that the witness, who was in California where her husband had recently undergone surgery, would testify that Mrs. Gray understood the contract and that the defendant was not present when the contract was signed, thereby refuting any charge of misrepresentation which the State might make. ", "Defendant's counsel further stated that, although he had not issued a subpoena to compel the attendance of Mrs. Deshotels, he had only recently learned of her location, and she had informed him by telegram that she would appear in three to seven weeks.", "\nThe trial judge, in his per curiam to the instant assignment of error, stated that defendant's failure to subpoena Mrs. Deshotels indicated that the codal requisite of due diligence had not been met; he further stated that he believed that the witness' testimony as to Mrs. Gray's understanding of the contracts would be inadmissible because the witness would be stating a conclusion of law.", "\nOur review of the record reveals no abuse of discretion on the part of the trial judge which would constitute reversible error under the prior decisions of this Court.[3] The trial court's finding that under the circumstances the defendant's failure to subpoena the witness indicated a lack of due diligence,[4] and its holding that defendant did not demonstrate that material, admissible testimony would be produced if the continuance were granted, is supportable under the record in this case. ", "Since we find that the trial judge's decision did not constitute an abuse of the discretion accorded him under the article, we find defendant's third assignment of error to be without merit.", "\n\nASSIGNMENTS OF ERROR NOS. ", "4 AND 5\nDefendant contends that the trial judge erred in refusing to grant a mistrial when the prosecutor referred in his opening statement to defendant's deposition and worksheet which were taken in a civil proceeding involving the same parties. ", "He further asserts that the court's admonition to the jury was insufficient to mitigate the damage ensuing from the prosecutor's remarks. ", "The prosecuting attorney stated:\n\"The money was not paid and a suit was filed on behalf of Pamela Gray against W. D. Atkins for payment of the money that she claimed she was entitled to. ", "During the proceedings of this suit, Mr. Wright took Mr. Atkins deposition in a civil matter, took his testimony, and as a result of that, a certain worksheet was produced by Mr. Atkins explaining how. . . .\"", "\nAt this point, defense counsel objected and moved for a mistrial on the basis of Louisiana Code of Criminal Procedure Article 767, which provides that the prosecution \"shall not, in the opening statement, advert in any way to a confession or inculpatory statement made by the defendant.\" ", "The court denied the motion, but did admonish the jury that \"the statements made by either side in this matter on opening statement. . . ", "as any statements of facts, are not evidence and should not be considered by you as such.\" ", "Defendant asserts that the court's refusal to grant the motion for a mistrial constitutes reversible error. ", "The *1347 State, however, contends that the deposition and worksheet were exculpatory rather than inculpatory in nature and that, in any event, the defendant suffered no prejudice since the documents were subsequently introduced into evidence. ", "Since we agree with the latter assertion, we find it unnecessary to reach the issue of whether the documents constituted inculpatory statements within the contemplation of Article 767.", "\nIn State v. Snedecor, 294 So.2d 207, 209 (La.1974), this Court considered a defendant's contention that the prosecutor, in his opening statement, had violated the mandate of Article 767. ", "Therein this Court stated:\n\"Defendant contends that the prosecutor's reference in his opening statement to a `police informer', `bugged automobile', `mike', and `tape recorder' made the jury aware that the State had an inculpatory statement of the defendant. ", "Thus the denial of defendant's motion for a mistrial under Article 767 of the Code of Criminal Procedure was erroneous.", "\n\"The article states: `The state shall not, in the opening statement, advert in any way to a confession or inculpatory statement made by the defendant.' ", "The reason for this prohibition is that, should the confession or statement not be admissible at trial, the jury's knowledge of its existence is prejudicial to defendant's rights. ", "However, where the statement is subsequently introduced at trial, there can be no prejudice to the defendant flowing from the reference in the opening statement.\"", "\nSee also State v. Roddy, 270 So.2d 508 (La. 1972).", "\nThe situation presented in the instant review is similar to that found in the Snedecor case. ", "Since the civil deposition and \"worksheet\" of the defendant were introduced into evidence at trial, he could not have been prejudiced by the references to them in the prosecutor's opening statement. ", "Accordingly we find that defendant's fourth and fifth assignments of error lack merit.", "\n\nASSIGNMENT OF ERROR NO. ", "6\nIn this assignment of error defendant contends that the trial court erred in allowing Mrs. Gray to testify as to her state of mind at the time defendant originally received the settlement funds and whether she was allowed to read the settlement contract because defendant was accused of a theft without the consent of the victim and not a taking by means of fraud. ", "The trial court did not err in allowing Mrs. Gray to testify. ", "Defendant's conduct toward his client at this time was relevant to show the nature of his intent at the time of later disbursements of the settlement funds from the bank account and also tended to prove a lack of consent by Mrs. Gray to later takings.", "\nThis assignment lacks merit.", "\n\nASSIGNMENT OF ERROR NO. ", "10\nDefendant contends that the trial court's refusal to give requested special jury charges constitutes reversible error. ", "Louisiana Code of Criminal Procedure Article 807 gives to both the state and the defense the right to submit to the court special written charges for the jury. ", "The article further requires the court to charge the jury pursuant to the written request if \"it does not require qualification, limitation, or explanation, and if it is wholly correct and pertinent.\" ", "However, the charge need not be given if it is included in the court's general charge to the jury, or if it forms a part of another special charge which is given by the court.", "\nOur examination of the record indicates that the trial court did not err in refusing defendant's special charges numbers one and eight. ", "Both of these charges were attempts to set forth the necessary elements which the state must prove in order to establish the commission of the crime of theft, a matter fully covered by the trial judge in his general charge. ", "Therefore, the *1348 charges were properly refused. ", "State v. Luckett, 327 So.2d 355 (La.1976). ", "Accordingly, we find defendant's tenth assignment of error to be meritless.", "\n\nASSIGNMENT OF ERROR NO. ", "11\nIn this assignment, defendant complains of the action of the trial court in allowing the prosecuting attorney, during closing argument, to distribute to the jury copies of documents which had already been introduced into evidence and examined by the jury at the time of their admission. ", "Louisiana Code of Criminal Procedure Article 774 provides that closing argument \"shall be confined to evidence admitted, to the lack of evidence, to conclusions of fact that the State or defendant may draw therefrom, and to the law applicable to the case.\"", "\nIn State v. Rowell, 306 So.2d 668 (La. 1975), this Court found no error in a procedure whereby the jury was allowed to examine, during closing argument, evidence which had previously been admitted but which had not been examined by the jury at that time. ", "The defendant argues that Rowell is distinguishable because, in the instant case, the jury had already viewed the evidence, and its subsequent distribution to the jury resulted in its being accorded undue weight. ", "Our reading of Rowell, however, indicates that the court approved the procedure not because the jury had not previously viewed the documents, but because they had been introduced into evidence prior to the commencement of the closing argument. ", "Therefore, we find that the trial judge did not err in permitting the evidence to be displayed to the jury during closing argument.", "\nFurther, we find no merit to the defendant's argument that he was prejudiced by the distribution of multiple copies, rather than a single copy, of the documents in question. ", "Defendant has failed to demonstrate any prejudice resulting from a procedure which was apparently intended only to facilitate the jurors' viewing of the exhibits. ", "Defendant's tenth assignment of error is without merit.", "\n\nASSIGNMENTS OF ERROR NOS. ", "12 AND 13\nDefendant contends that the trial court erred in overruling his motion for a new trial, which was based upon the contention that the state presented no evidence of certain essential elements of the crime of theft. ", "Our review of the record indicates that the State presented at least some evidence of each of the essential elements of the offense; therefore, we find that the trial judge did not err in his ruling. ", "See, State v. Finley, 341 So.2d 381 (La.1977). ", "Accordingly, we find defendant's final assignments of error to be meritless.", "\nFor the reasons herein expressed, defendant's conviction and sentence are affirmed.", "\nNOTES\n[1] See, e.g., State v. Ford, 349 So.2d 300 (La. 1977); State v. O'Blanc, 346 So.2d 686 (La. 1977); State v. Jenkins, 338 So.2d 276 (La. 1976); State v. Marks, 337 So.2d 1177 (La. 1976).

[ "Affliction Warlock: When to play aff, and the do's and don'ts of the spec\n\nHello and welcome to this short guide covering the strengths and weaknesses of the Affliction Warlock, this guide is written by Luc\\u00ee\\u00fbs, I stream sometimes on twitch. ", "I also maintain a blog for the affliction spec at https:\\/\\/legionafflictionwarlock.wordpress.com\\r\\rFor more Warlock discussion, visit their Class Discord.\\r\\rWhen you should consider playing the affliction spec\\rWhen to Affliction\\rAffliction\\u2019s strengths in raids are mostly multi-target, especially 3 or more targets, and its mobility is insane compared to Destro or Demo, and most specs in the game. ", "It is a spec that thrives on fights with adds that can give you high stacks of wrath of consumption and reap stacks.\\rSome examples of the fights affliction is very good on are: Renferal, the spiders although infrequent provide you with some minor WoC uptime, and the fight has a large amount of moving around. ", "Odyn, While affliction is not that great at runebearer damage if your guild needs it that is; BUT you get WoC stacks from them, and that\\u2019s enough to get it close to Destro in phase 1 \\/ 2 cleave. ", "It\\u2019s got straight up better ST and better mobility for phase 3.\\rBut, Afflictions most important strength arguably is Absolute Corruption cheesing. ", "Especially on fights like Dragons \\/ Helya are excellent examples of fights for the affliction spec to shine, also AC lets you do ungodly damage to the dragons, and the tentacles (keep in mind that this isn't padding), as both fights have adds that allow you to maintain the 5-stack buff from Wrath of Consumption for a large portion of the fight, both fights also have a decent amount of movement. ", "\\r\\rNow here's where affliction can fall short\\rWeaknesses of the spec\\rAffliction is a spec with absolutely Zero burst potential\\rThe spec is arguably terrible on target swapping\\rWhen running with Soul Effigy builds, the spec feels clunky\\rThe spec is far too reliant on 100% uptimes of both the Wrath of Consumption and Reap Soul buffs to deal top end DPS; if a warlock cannot keep these at 100% their damage throughput plummets.\\rThe strongest trait on the Artifact by far is Wrath of Consumption by a mile and a half\\rThe spec is crippled by RNG, inconsistent damage from pull to pull, and Awkward Soul Shard generation\\r\\r\n\nComentários\n\nComentado por Desertcobra\n\nYou speak of \"Wrath of Corruption\" as if it is a spell which you can cast up to 5 stacks. ", "There is no \"Wrath of Corruption\" spell in the spell book that I can see. \"", "Wrath of Corruption\" is only on the Artifact Weapon. ", "Perhaps you mean Unstable Affliction which is a castable spell that can stack 5 times." ]

", "The case was tried to a jury which rendered a verdict in favor of the railroad. ", "A motion for a new trial made by appellant was denied by the district judge, and appellant filed an appeal to this court. ", "Jurisdiction in the district court and in this court is conceded.", "\n\n\n2\nThe evidence showed that about 7 A.M. on August 22, 1958, the train on which appellant was working was near La Grande, Oregon, travelling at a speed of 40 miles an hour. ", "When it was \"very close\", about five or six car lengths, to a crossing, the engineer and the engine foreman at about the same time saw at the crossing in the path of the train a plank 24 feet long, 12 inches wide, and four inches thick, lying diagonally across one of the tracks. ", "Trainmen testified that such a plank constituted a derailment hazard to the train. ", "The operator of the train immediately applied the emergency brakes, and the train came to a stop in about one train length. ", "The appellant was working in the pantry of the dining car when the emergency brakes were applied. ", "He testified that he had a coffee cup in his left hand. ", "He said that there was a sudden violent lurch which threw him forward into a counter, and that then he was thrown backwards. ", "He testified that the accident happened very quickly; that he didn't have time to grab onto anything; and that he didn't know exactly what happened. ", "As a result of this accident, he claimed to have suffered injuries.", "\n\n\n3\nWilliams relies upon four claimed errors by the district court. ", "As stated in appellant's brief, \"The questions presented by this appeal are: (1) Whether the Trial Court erred in ruling on plaintiff's offer of the operating rules of defendant; (2) Whether the Trial Court erred in granting defendant's motion to withdraw a certain allegation of negligence by defendant in failing to maintain handrailings; (3) Whether the Trial Court erred in permitting opinion evidence as to whether the plaintiff could hear a certain whistle; (4) Whether the Trial Court erred in its instruction on the doctrine of unavoidable accident.", "\"1 We will discuss these claimed errors in the order in which they are set out above.", "\n\n\n4\nDuring his testimony at the trial the engineer who was operating the train at the time of the accident was asked whether or not he gave any signal immediately prior to applying the emergency brakes. ", "When he replied that he did not blow any signal and testified that no such signal was required, counsel for appellant offered in evidence the 213-page rule book of the appellee.2 The court declined to admit the rule book as substantive evidence, but stated that he would permit appellant's counsel to cross-examine the railroad's witnesses concerning it. ", "Appellant's counsel then called the engineer's attention to certain printed matter in the rule book which is set out below.3 The following testimony was elicited:\n\n\n5\n\"Q. Mr. Ladd, are you governed by that certain prescribed signal which appears at Page 18 of the Consolidated Code of Operating Rules and General Instructions which indicates that a sound of one short blast of the whistle indicates `Apply brakes, stop'? ", "A. That's right * * * That signal is used in yard operations, apply brake, signaling to the yardmen that the brakes are applied and that the train line can be tested. ", "It is used as a warning signal to the other trains in the yard requiring them to stop. ", "It's a yard operation.", "\n\n\n6\n* * * * * *\n\n\n7\n\"Q. Just show the jury where it says that that signal of one short blast is a signal for yard engines and to be used within the yard. ", "Show us that, please, Mr. Ladd. ", "A. The rule says, `One short sound, apply brakes, stop.'", "\n\n\n8\n\"Q. I understand that, sir. ", "Now, would you show the jury where it says anything else about that? ", "A. That's all it does say.", "\n\n\n9\n\"Q. Thank you, sir. ", "Did you at any time give a signal of one short blast? ", "A. No, sir.\"", "\n\n\n10\nHe further testified that there was no rule with respect to a signal that is to be given before placing a train into emergency.", "\n\n\n11\nWhile normally the rules of a railroad are admissible in evidence if they are applicable,4 we see no prejudicial error in the court's action in this case. ", "He permitted cross examination on the rule, and there was testimony that it was not applicable. ", "Finally, as a complete answer to appellant, the rule which appellant wanted introduced in evidence was read into evidence; and the jury heard it when the witness testified, \"The rule says `One short sound, apply brakes, stop.'\"", "\n\n\n12\nIn considering appellant's second specification of error, it should be pointed out that the pre-trial order set out the plaintiff's contentions as to the negligence of the railroad. ", "The subsequent discussion of the contentions makes reference to this order. ", "The pertinent provisions of the pre-trial order are as follows:\n\n\n13\n\"The plaintiff contends that at the time and place the injuries complained of were caused in whole or in part by the negligence of the defendant in the following particulars, to-wit:\n\n\n14\n\"(1) Defendant failed to provide and maintain railings for hand holds or other structures or devices for plaintiff to grasp when sudden lurching or stopping of the train occurred.", "\n\n\n15\n\"(2) Defendant failed to provide and maintain any devices or a system of communication to warn plaintiff to anticipate and prepare for sudden lurching and stopping of the train * * *\n\n\n16\nAt the conclusion of Williams' case counsel for the defendant moved that the court strike out certain of the allegations of negligence:\n\n\n17\n\"Mr. Cosgrave: * * * [T]he defendant moves to withdraw from the consideration of the jury the Plaintiff's Contention No. (", "1) * * * upon the ground and for the reason that it appears from the plaintiff's own testimony that the absence of handrailings could not have been a proximate contributing cause, for he had no opportunity, according to his own testimony, or time to use handrails. * * *", "\n\n\n18\n* * * * * *\n\n\n19\n\"The Court: * * * In connection with your motion, Mr. Cosgrave, I must rule on this. ", "I think your motion to strike the plaintiff's Contention 1 will be allowed because I believe that it is covered by No. (", "2) that the defendant failed to provide or maintain any devices or system of communication to warn plaintiff to anticipate and prepare for a sudden lurching or stopping of the train. * * *\"", "\n\n\n20\nIt appears that the court allowed the motion of the defendant not on the grounds urged but rather on another ground; i. e., that the matter was covered by another of the contentions. ", "The plaintiff's attorney made no objection to the action of the court.", "\n\n\n21\nAt the conclusion of all the evidence, defendant's counsel again urged that contention (1) be withdrawn, and the court again stated that it had been withdrawn because it was included in No. (", "2).5 Still there was no objection from Williams' attorney.", "\n\n\n22\nIn his instructions to the jury the district judge explained that the action was based upon the alleged negligence of the railroad, and that in order for Williams to recover, such negligence must be the proximate cause of the injury suffered. ", "The court then said:\n\n\n23\n\"Now in this connection specifically the plaintiff contends that this accident and his injury, as you shall find it to be, was caused in whole or in part by the negligence of the defendant in the following particulars:\n\n\n24\n\"First, that the defendant failed to provide and maintain any devices or a system of communication to warn plaintiff to anticipate and prepare for a sudden lurching and stopping of the train.", "\n\n\n25\n\"Next, that the defendant negligently made a sudden and violent stop of the equipment on which plaintiff was working without warning plaintiff of any intention to do so.", "\n\n\n26\n\"Next, that the defendant negligently failed to provide and maintain proper control of its equipment.", "\n\n\n27\n\"Lastly, that the defendant negligently failed to keep a proper lookout.\"", "\n\n\n28\nIt would appear that from the statement made by the court at the time he was discussing the issues with counsel in the absence of the jury, that he felt that the claim of negligence contained in plaintiff's contention No. ", "1 in the pre-trial order was included in the plaintiff's contention No. ", "2 therein. ", "And, as above set out, he did give to the jury plaintiff's contention No. ", "2. ", "Apparently he felt that the charge of failure to provide and maintain any railings or devices for the plaintiff to grasp was included within the second contention of Williams that the defendant failed to provide and maintain any devices to anticipate and prepare for sudden lurching and stopping of the train.", "\n\n\n29\nIt could be said that counsel for Williams appeared to agree with this interpretation, because he made no objection of any kind to the action of the court in withdrawing contention No. ", "1 nor did he make any requests for any instructions to be given by the court to the jury. ", "At the completion of the instructions counsel for Williams said, \"The plaintiff is entirely satisfied with the set of instructions this jury received.\"", "\n\n\n30\nIf the plaintiff's objection is that the court improperly instructed the jury on the handrailing issue, the answer is that the attorney neither submitted any instruction on the point nor made any objection to the instructions of the trial judge. ", "The following provision is contained in the Fed.", "Rules Civ.", "Proc. ", "rule 51, 28 U.S.C.A.:\n\n\n31\n\"* * * No party may assign as error the giving or the failure to give an instruction unless he objects thereto before the jury retires to consider its verdict, stating distinctly the matter to which he objects and the grounds of his objection * * *.\"", "\n\n\n32\nSince no objection was made here the appellant is foreclosed from asserting the matter as error upon this appeal.", "\n\n\n33\nHowever, regardless of the interpretation placed on the appellant's contention by the court and by counsel, there was no error in the court's instructions, for there was no evidence in the record to support a claim that the absence of handrails in the pantry could have been the proximate cause of any injury to Williams. ", "The record shows that Williams himself testified that the accident happened so quickly that he did not have time to grab onto anything when he was thrown forward into a counter. ", "There was no evidence that even if there were handrails in the pantry they would in any way have prevented the injuries to Williams. ", "The absence of handrails could in no event have been a proximate cause of any of the injuries received by Williams.", "\n\n\n34\nAppellant's third specification of error is that the district court erred in permitting a witness to give an opinion concerning whether or not Williams could have heard the train whistle if it had been sounded. ", "Snodgrass, an engineer for the railroad who was in the engine at the time of the accident but who was not then actually operating the engine, was called as a witness by appellant. ", "On cross-examination, after stating that he had been an engineer for 39 years, that during that time he had ridden back in the cars as well as up in the engine, and that he was familiar with the type of cars on the train at the time of the accident, Snodgrass was asked the following question:\n\n\n35\n\"Mr. Snodgrass, assuming that the train at the time involved consisted of four engine units, followed by six baggage cars, followed by seven passenger cars, followed by a diner on this train, and assuming that the plaintiff in this case was in the pantry of the kitchen back there, based on your observations and riding in cars of this type and trains of this length, is it your opinion that the sound of the whistle would be heard by an employee here situated in the dining car?\"", "\n\nCounsel for appellant objected, stating:\n\n36\n\"I object to that, Your Honor, on the basis that it assumes facts which are not in this record at this time.\" ", "The court ruled:\n\n\n37\n\"Each party may assume their own state of facts. ", "If they are not proven, or there is no evidence behind it, it is for the jury to determine. ", "But Court and counsel may assume any state of facts that they think will be presented. * * * ", "He may answer.\" ", "A. \"I don't believe he could.\"", "\n\n\n38\nIn this court the appellant objects to the ruling of the trial judge on the ground that \"the question of whether plaintiff could hear this whistle was argumentative and called for a pure conclusion of this witness without establishing said witness as an expert. * * *\" ", "This is not the same ground that was argued to the trial judge where counsel stated that the question \"assumes facts which are not in this record at this time.\"", "\n\n\n39\nA specific objection that is overruled by the trial judge is effective only to the extent of the grounds specified. ", "An objection overruled at trial which named a ground which is untenable cannot be availed of upon appeal because there was another tenable ground which might have been named but was not.

", "1940).", "\n\n\n40\nHowever, assuming that the objection which was urged upon this appeal had been made at trial, we still feel that the trial judge was correct in allowing the witness to answer.", "\n\n\n41\nRule 43(a) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure provides that \"[a]ll evidence shall be admitted which is admissible under the statutes of the United States * * * or under the rules of evidence applied in the courts of general jurisdiction of the state in which the United States court is held * * *.\" ", "The Oregon courts have held that \"[w]hether a witness is possessed of special qualification upon the subject-matter of inquiry, which will tend to give value to his opinion, is a matter which rests largely in the discretion of the trial court.\" ", "State v.

", "We see no error in the admission of this testimony.", "\n\n\n42\nIn the fourth specification of error appellant complains of the fact that the court gave an instruction on unavoidable accident.6\n\n\n43\nThe short answer to this specification is that appellant made no objection to the giving of the instruction as required by the Federal Rules.7 However, we have examined the instruction.

[ "Introduction {#sec1-1}\n============\n\nSuicidal ideas are common among the general population\\[[@ref1][@ref2]\\] and may or may not culminate in a suicide attempt.\\[[@ref3]\\] The concept of suicidal process implies a progression from the emergence of ideas of harming self to the actual behavior of carrying out the suicidal act which may become a completed suicide or an attempted suicide depending on the subject\\'s survival.\\[[@ref4]\\] Deisenhammer *et al*.\\[[@ref5]\\] reported that duration of this suicide process lasted only for 10 min or less in about 50% of the suicide attempters.", "\n\nCurrent strategies for suicide prevention can be either selective aimed toward \"at risk\" population or universal at the community level.\\[[@ref6]\\] Intervention strategies as the part of secondary prevention involve reducing risk factors in those with a history of suicide attempt.\\[[@ref7]\\]\n\nHowever, individual-level interventions to abort suicide attempt from the time of emergence of suicidal ideas are crucial.\\[[@ref8][@ref9]\\] Knowledge of the average time of this suicidal process, during which abortive interventions can be carried out, will be of potential help but has not been evaluated systematically in our setting. ", "Research findings from India suggest that majority of Indian subjects attempt suicide impulsively without much forethought.\\[[@ref10][@ref11]\\] There can be a subset of subjects who show a longer duration of suicide process which may provide a window of opportunity for planning personalized interventions. ", "Hence, this study aims to describe the duration of suicide process among suicide attempters attending a tertiary care center in South India and try to characterize those who show a longer duration of suicide process based on the empirical cutoff.", "\n\nMethods {#sec1-2}\n=======\n\nThis study was conducted in a government-funded tertiary care cum teaching hospital in Southern India. ", "The department of psychiatry in the hospital runs a weekly Crisis Intervention Clinic (CIC) since 2010. ", "All subjects with suicide attempts, following medical stabilization, are referred to this clinic before discharge as part of hospital protocol. ", "The clinic is manned by consultant psychiatrist, a postgraduate trainee resident, and a full-time social worker. ", "Information is gathered from the subjects and their family members attending the clinic using a standard pro forma. ", "This information helps in suicide risk assessment and planning management which consists of either or both pharmacotherapy and psychosocial interventions.", "\n\nThis study includes case records of clients evaluated consecutively at the CIC over a period of 3 years (July 1, 2010--June 30, 2013).

", "Those cases where the intent of suicide was not clear were excluded from the study. ", "Information on suicidal process time, defined by Wasserman\\[[@ref4]\\] as time interval from emergence of suicidal ideas to the actual implementation of those ideas into a plan leading to the current suicide attempt, was recorded for each patient and was based on patient\\'s self-recollection. ", "Those subjects who could not recollect this duration were excluded from the study.", "\n\nThe analysis was conducted using Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) - PASW Statistics for Windows, Version 18.0 (Chicago: SPSS Inc.). ", "The time for the suicidal process was divided into four quartiles. ", "The characteristics of the subjects in the last quartile (suicide process time \\>120 min) were compared to the characteristics of those in the first three quartiles.

", "Out of these, 319 case records were included in the analysis. ", "We excluded 28 case records due to following reasons: Suicidal intent could not be established in 14, and time duration between emergence of idea and actual attempt could not be ascertained in another 14. ", "The median suicide process time was 30 min (Interquartile range 5--120 min). ", "Subjects were divided into four quartiles based on reported suicide process time. ", "First, quartile had 96 (30.1%) subjects (suicide process time up to 5 min), second quartile had 71 (22.2%) subjects (suicide process time 6 min to 30 min), third quartile had 77 (24.1%) subjects (suicide process time 31 min to 120 min), and whereas the last fourth quartile had 75 (23.5%) subjects (suicide process time of \\>120 min or 2 h). ", "Based on the consensus among investigators and after taking into account the distribution of data in our sample, an empirical cut point of \\>2 h was chosen as a reasonable period for any intervention to be feasible and effective at the individual level. ", "Thus, those with suicide process time of \\> 120 min (fourth quartile) were deemed to provide a window of opportunity for intervention and were compared with subjects from other three quartiles for differences. ", "The demographic characteristics of the groups are shown in [Table 1](#T1){ref-type=\"table\"}.

", "Hence, our study adds to the scanty cross-cultural literature in this area. ", "The present record-based study also tried to identify the characteristics of individuals with suicide process time of \\>2 h. Such individuals are more likely to come from urban areas, have a diagnosis of mood disorders, are more likely to have visited a health professional in the recent past, and less likely to attempt under intoxication. ", "Summarizing, these individuals provide a window of opportunity for intervention, but comprise only a quarter of suicide attempters.", "\n\nSubjects from the urban background spend considerable time contemplating suicide and thus can provide a window of opportunity for intervention. ", "These people were also more likely to have an underlying mood disorder and sought professional help more frequently before the attempt. ", "As they have better access to mass media and technology, they can be targeted through these for stress reduction strategies and guidance on appropriate help seeking for health-related issues. ", "However, it also raises the question of availability and accessibility of professional psychiatric help for a person hailing from a rural background who is contemplating suicide. ", "Training of community gatekeepers for prompt recognition and management of such individuals may help to address this anomaly.", "\n\nThe most common triggers for attempt were interpersonal issues in general, though love-related issues found greater representation in the group with longer suicide process time. ", "This suggests that individuals facing a crisis in their romantic relationships contemplate longer before making the attempt and are a possible target group for early intervention in suicide prevention. ", "Providing help lines or teaching on how to deal with similar kind of stress during school mental health programs may be useful in this regard.", "\n\nPatients with psychiatric disorders (particularly mood disorders) were represented more frequently in the group with longer duration of suicide process. ", "Suicide attempts in India tend to be impulsive with no or shorter duration of suicide process, and concurrent psychiatric disorder is less common\\[[@ref11][@ref17]\\] thus explaining significantly lesser prevalence of mood disorders in subjects belonging to the first three quartiles in our sample. ", "It is interesting to note that majority of the suicide attempters including impulsive types experience suicidal thoughts before the attempt and experience the varying duration of suicide process.\\[[@ref18]\\] Hence, the presence of suicidal feelings before attempt constitutes an opportunity for intervention even for impulsive suicide attempters.", "\n\nSubjects in the group with longer duration of suicide process seem to have a better health seeking attitude. ", "This subset differs from the general view that those at suicide risk have poor help-seeking behavior.\\[[@ref19]\\] This, doubtless, suggests the importance of routine screening for suicide risk and the need to sensitize health care professionals from other specialties about the standard procedures used for suicide risk assessment and formulation.\\[[@ref7]\\]\n\nWhen faced with a difficult or troublesome situation, problem- and emotion-focused disengagement are considered a better coping strategies. ", "In the group with shorter duration of suicide process, a higher proportion of subjects used problem-focused disengagement, meaning a poor coping among this group compared to the other. ", "Suitable coping skills enhancement strategies may therefore have a role in suicide prevention for such individuals.", "\n\nTo summarize, some general principles of suicide prevention can apply for individuals with longer duration of suicide process time. ", "On an individual level, developing coping skills and promoting positive mental health may reduce the number of suicide attempts. ", "From service delivery perspective providing crisis helplines, sensitization of general physicians about the need for routine assessment of suicide risk and providing gatekeeper training at the community level in the form of village leaders can be helpful in early identification, and suicide prevention.", "\n\nThe limitations of the study include a collection of information about the suicidal process based on subjective reporting.

", "Description of Prior Art\nThe general technology of using antibody-coated magnetic beads or other magnetic particles, hereinafter referred to as immunomagnetic particles or IMPs, to selectively separate and capture analytes from foods or other samples is known as immunomagnetic separation (IMS) and is widely used. ", "In a typical IMS procedure IMPs are suspended in a suspension of the test sample for a time sufficient for them to selectively bind the target analyte and are then pulled out of the suspension as a small pellet-like sediment by means of a strong magnet. ", "After pouring or pipetting away the supernatant suspension the IMPs can be rinsed by resuspending the pellet in clean diluent and resedimenting it with the magnet, after which the target analyte-bearing IMPs can be introduced into whatever final procedure has been chosen to detect or quantify the target analyte. ", "As each sedimentation usually requires only seconds, capture by IMPs is a convenient and rapid first step in many analyses.", "\nMany different systems and individual pieces of apparatus have been developed to assist the use of IMS. ", "A strong magnet is required in order to maximise the speed with which IMPs can be drawn down and generally the magnets used in these systems are of the Neodymium-Iron-Boron alloy type, commonly referred to as “rare earth magnets”. ", "The sedimenting force acting on an IMP at any point in the suspension depends on the magnetic flux density at that point, and because this usually decreases very rapidly with increasing distance from the surface of a magnet, IMP systems are generally designed to handle small volumes, for example 1-10 mL, in small tubes such as the Eppendorf or similar-sized centrifuge tubes commonly found in analytical laboratories.", "\nThis small volume results in a limit on the detectable quantity or concentration of target analyte that is often too high for the requirements. ", "For example, if a regulatory standard demands that Listeria monocytogenes must not be detectable in a 25 g sample of food then an acceptable Listeria detection procedure must be capable of detecting the presence of even a single cell of the bacterium in a sample. ", "However as no known technique can detect such a target analyte until it has been removed from the test sample into liquid suspension the first step in any analysis would be to shake or blend the 25 g sample with 225 mL of sterile diluent. ", "The single cell the analysis must detect may now be anywhere in the 250 mL volume of sample-plus-diluent and the probability of capturing it in even a 10 mL aliquot by means of IMPs will be unacceptably low. ", "Without means to treat the whole 250 mL suspension by IMS the only recourse is to incubate the suspension for hours or days to allow the target cells to multiply to a high enough concentration that the aliquot has a reasonable probability of containing target cells. ", "This time delay is a serious impediment to rapid analysis.", "\nA commercially available system for capturing microorganisms from 250 mL volumes using IMPs (Pathatrix™, Matrix MicroScience Limited, Lynxx Business Park, Fordham Rd, Newmarket, UK), comprises a set of peristaltic pumps, vessels, tubes and in-line filters. ", "The magnet and IMP-capturing dimensions of this system are essentially similar to those used in the small-tube apparatus described above and the system is able to handle the larger volume by pumping the suspension slowly and continually past the magnet. ", "This requires time, although protocols for using the Pathatrix™ system may include time for multiplication of a target microorganism. ", "Assembling its tubes and vessels and removing the captured IMP pellet for introduction to the detection step of an analysis is inconvenient and time consuming. ", "Therefore, it would be desirable to have a simpler and faster means to rapidly capture IMPs from large volumes without need for tubes and pumps.", "\nIn my previous Canadian patent application, CA 2685229 to C. I. Bin Kingombe and A. N. Sharpe, it is disclosed that it is possible first to sediment IMPs from 250 mL of suspension to the base of a 500 mL glass Erlenmeyer (conical) flask by standing the flask over a powerful magnet and then to induce them to concentrate to a “pellet” at the centre of the base by intensely vibrating the flask axially at high frequency over a second magnet assembly arranged to produce a magnetic field radiating horizontally from the centre of the base. ", "This vigorous vibration is required to overcome stiction of IMPs against the glass. ", "While this device may be useful in a research laboratory, it has numerous shortcomings that make it quite unsuited for routine use in analytical laboratories. ", "For example the concave conical flask base makes it difficult for a motivating magnetic field situated beneath the flask to persuade IMPs to move “uphill” so that it is necessary for the apparatus to vibrate noisily for periods of up to ten minutes whilst sedimented IMPs coalesce at the centre of the base. ", "Moreover once a pellet of IMPs has formed it is not easily removed for analysis owing to the height of a conical flask and it is necessary to modify for example a “magnetic pipet” such as the commercially available PickPen™ product (Bio-Nobile Oy, Tykistokatu 4B, Turku 20521, Finland) in order to make it long enough to reach the bottom of the flask. ", "Furthermore, as it simply rests on the summit of the curved base of the flask without any form of physical restraint the pellet is easily disturbed. ", "Additionally it is not possible to see the pellet if the suspension is cloudy and as the inner flask base slopes away from the centre and glass is relatively slippery it is entirely unable to help the user by passively guiding the point of the pipet into the pellet and it was necessary to include a system whereby the pelletising magnet swings away to reveal a mirror by which the user can see both the pellet in the centre of the base and the tip of the pipet without bending over to peer upwards from beneath." ]

[ "Should postprandial hyperglycaemia in prediabetic and type 2 diabetic patients be treated?", "\nNumerous prospective studies support the concept of postprandial glycaemia (PPG) as a risk factor for cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) in individuals with impaired glucose tolerance (IGT). ", "A meta-analysis has demonstrated an exponential relationship between 2-hour postchallenge glucose levels and the incidence of CVD. ", "This relationship is stronger than those observed with fasting glycaemia or glycosylated haemoglobin (HbA(1c)), and persists after adjustment for other vascular risk factors. ", "Although there are fewer data available for the diabetic population, those that are available also support PPG as a risk factor for CVD. ", "Treating PPG with acarbose is associated with a reduction in cardiovascular events in both patients with IGT and diabetes mellitus. ", "Acarbose also reduces the progression of intima-media thickness (IMT), which is a surrogate endpoint for atherosclerosis. ", "It has been suggested that the beneficial effect could be related to an improvement in postprandial hyperglycaemia and associated atherogenic factors - oxidative stress, endothelial dysfunction and pro-coagulation factors - and to an improvement in other cardiovascular risk factors such as systolic blood pressure (by decreasing water and salt absorption), postprandial hypertriglyceridaemia and insulin resistance. ", "Treating PPG with glinides improves IMT as well as interleukin-6 and C-reactive protein levels, while treating PPG with rapid-acting insulin analogues is also associated with improvements in endothelial dysfunction. ", "The Kumamoto study suggests that reduced PPG is strongly associated with reductions in retinopathy and nephropathy. ", "Finally, decreasing PPG in patients with IGT reduces the progression of diabetes. ", "In conclusion, physicians should increase efforts to control PPG in order to further improve HbA(1c), and should also ensure close control of postprandial hyperglycaemic peaks so as to optimise patients' chances of avoiding cardiovascular complications.

[ "Introduction\n============\n\nDuring neurogenesis post-mitotic neurons of distinct types are generated from neural stem/progenitor cell (NSPs), both in the developing brain and in the adult brain niches of the hippocampus dentate gyrus and subventricular zone (SVZ), through progressive steps of cell cycle exit, differentiation, and migration (Gage, [@B21]; Ming and Song, [@B44]; Kriegstein and Alvarez-Buylla, [@B33]). ", "Cell cycle arrest and neurogenesis are highly coordinated and interactive processes, governed by cell cycle genes and neural transcription factors. ", "The expression of proneural genes, which convert undifferentiated precursors into neurons, is also linked to a negative control of the cell cycle (Farah et al., [", "@B15]). ", "One molecule coordinating cell cycle exit with differentiation in neural progenitor cells is the transcriptional coregulator PC3/*Tis21* (also referred to as *Btg2*), whose ablation enhances the proliferation of adult hippocampal granule progenitor cells and also impairs their terminal differentiation (Farioli-Vecchioli et al., [", "@B16]). ", "Conversely, overexpression of *PC3*/*Tis21* in hippocampal progenitor cells accelerates their differentiation (Farioli-Vecchioli et al., [", "@B17]).", "\n\nAdult hippocampal neurogenesis occurs in the subgranular zone of the dentate gyrus from putative neural stem cells with radial glial-like morphology, identified by the expression of GFAP in their processes or also of nestin and Sox2, and defined as type-1 cells (Seri et al., [", "@B56]; Filippov et al., [", "@B18]; Fukuda et al., [", "@B20]; Graham et al., [", "@B23]; Kempermann et al., [", "@B30]; Komitova and Eriksson, [@B32]). ", "Type-1 cells evolve into proliferating progenitor cells, namely type-2, which exist in two subtypes 2a and 2b, both nestin-positive, one negative and one positive for the immature neuronal marker doublecortin (DCX; Fukuda et al., [", "@B20]; Kronenberg et al., [", "@B34]) and type-3, which then become post-mitotic granule neurons, attaining stage 5 and 6 (Kempermann et al., [", "@B30]). ", "This stage is denoted by the expression of the mature, post-mitotic neuronal marker NeuN, which coexists initially with DCX (Kempermann et al., [", "@B30]). ", "On the other hand, SVZ, the other adult neurogenic brain region (Alvarez-Buylla and Lim, [@B2]), comprises type B stem astrocytic-like cells, type C transit amplifying cells and type A migrating neuroblasts (Lagace et al., [", "@B36]; Zhao et al., [", "@B63]).", "\n\nThe hippocampus is known to be required in the formation of spatial and associative memories, a process in which a specific role appears to be played by the new neurons continuously generated during adulthood from progenitor cells (Frankland and Bontempi, [@B19]; Bird and Burgess, [@B6]; Deng et al., [", "@B12]). ", "In fact, impairment of differentiation of hippocampal progenitor cells in *PC3*/*Tis21*-null mice profoundly affects their function in hippocampus-dependent contextual memory circuits and tasks (Farioli-Vecchioli et al., [", "@B17], [@B16]). ", "Notwithstanding the pan-neural expression of *PC3*/*Tis21* and these profound cognitive effects following its ablation, no lethal phenotype is observed, suggesting that other related genes may produce a redundant control of differentiation.", "\n\nIn this regard, B-cell translocation 1 gene (*Btg1*) belongs to the gene family comprising *PC3*/*Tis21*, *BTG3*, *TOB*, and *TOB2*. ", "It was originally identified as a sequence associated to a chromosomal translocation in a lymphoid malignancy (Rouault et al., [", "@B52]). *", "Btg1* shares with *PC3*/*Tis21* 65% protein identity and the antiproliferative properties (Rouault et al., [", "@B52]; Tirone, [@B59]). ", "Moreover, *Btg1* induces avian myoblast differentiation (Marchal et al., [", "@B40]; Rodier et al., [", "@B51]) and the development of endothelial cells (Iwai et al., [", "@B25]) and is also likely involved in the differentiation of sperm cells (Raburn et al., [", "@B48]). *", "Btg1* is expressed in the developing and adult brain (Su et al., [", "@B58]; Kamaid and Giráldez, [@B28]), but no information on its function in neural tissues is available. ", "Thus, we generated *Btg1* knock out mice and analyzed the functional contribution by *Btg1* to the adult neurogenic niches of the hippocampus and SVZ (Zhao et al., [", "@B63]). ", "It turned out that *Btg1* is necessary for the maintenance and generation of progenitor cells and new neurons of both regions, because its ablation was associated with a massive apoptosis of stem and progenitor cells, probably a result of the loss in the control by *Btg1* of the cell cycle progression from G1 to S phase. ", "Consequently, the number of new dentate gyrus neurons generated was largely reduced in mice lacking *Btg1*. ", "This decrease of new neurons had a selective effect on hippocampus-dependent memory, as it specifically affected the ability to discriminate between similar contexts (pattern separation).", "\n\nMaterials and Methods\n=====================\n\nConstruction of m*Btg1* targeting vector\n----------------------------------------\n\nA mouse genomic clone was isolated from 129/Sv mouse library of phage lambda by standard techniques. ", "A fragment of 6 kB encompassing the mouse *Btg1* gene was cloned in pBluescript II. ", "A phosphoglycerate kinase-neomycin resistance cassette was inserted in the *Sac*II restriction site located in mouse *Btg1* exon 1 (49 bp after ATG). ", "A Herpes simplex virus thymidine kinase gene cassette (negative selection) was cloned adjacent to the 3′ end of the genomic region.", "\n\nGeneration of targeted ES cells and of *Btg1*-null mice; genotyping\n-------------------------------------------------------------------\n\nWe proceeded as described previously (Berthet et al., [", "@B5]), by electroporating embryonic stem cells (ES) with the linearized targeting vector and selecting them with G418 (250 μg/ml) and ganciclovir (0.5 μg/ml). ", "A resistant ES cells clone was injected into 3.5-day C57BL/6 blastocysts to obtain male chimeras.", "\n\nThe genotype of resistant ES cells and of agouti pups was determined, following digestion of DNA with *Acc*I, by Southern blotting using as probes a genomic fragment of about 0.5 kb comprising the *Eco*RI-*Bgl*II region at 5′ of the gene or a fragment of the neomycin sequence (wild-type or knockout alleles generated 5 or 6.1 kb fragments, respectively). ", "Genotyping of mice was routinely performed by PCR, using genomic DNA from tail tips. ", "Three primers were used to identify mice carrying the different genotypes *Btg1*^−/−^, *Btg1*^+/−^ or *Btg1*^+/+^, one complementary to the neo cassette (m*Btg1*-Neo-R 5′-CGGAGAACCTGCGTGCAATC-3′) and the other two complementary to the targeted exon I (m*Btg1*-F 5′-CCATGCATCCCTTCTACACCC-3′; m*Btg1*-R 5′-TGCAGGCTCTGGCTGAAAGT-3′) and were amplified together in the PCR reaction to obtain patterns of amplification specific for each of the three combinations of alleles (knockout, 388 bp amplification by m*Btg1*-F and m*Btg1*-Neo-R primers; wild-type, 136 bp amplification of exon I by m*Btg1*-F and m*Btg1*-R primers). ", "Mice were maintained under standard specific-pathogen-free conditions, and underwent behavioral testing during the second half of the light period (between 2:00 and 5:00 p.m.) in sound insulated rooms.", "\n\nAll animal procedures were completed in accordance with the Istituto Superiore di Sanita' (Italian Ministry of Health) and current European (directive 2010/63/EU) Ethical Committee guidelines. ", "Btg1 knockout mice are available upon request to J.-P. Rouault.", "\n\nBrdU treatment of mice and sample preparation for immunohistochemistry\n----------------------------------------------------------------------\n\nIn post-natal day 60 (P60) *Btg1*^+/+^ and *Btg1*^−/−^ mice, 1- to 5-day-old neurons in the dentate gyrus and SVZ were detected by bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU) incorporation, after treatment with five daily injections of BrdU (95 mg/kg i.p.), ", "from P55 to P59, followed by perfusion at P60 (Farioli-Vecchioli et al., [", "@B17]; see Figures [3](#F3){ref-type=\"fig\"}C, [6](#F6){ref-type=\"fig\"}B, and [7](#F7){ref-type=\"fig\"}B).

[ "Introduction {#Sec1}\n============\n\nFour decades after its introduction for joint arthroplasties, UHMWPE still represents the gold standard as an articulating counterface for arthroplasties, since it combines superior wear resistance along with high fracture toughness and biocompatibility compared to other polymers.", "\n\nIt has been demonstrated that the main factor responsible for the failure of UHMWPE in joint replacements is oxidative degradation, which decreases its mechanical properties \\[[@CR1]--[@CR3]\\]. ", "Decreased abrasive wear resistance, due to oxidation, leads to the formation of wear debris and consequently to osteolysis, which has been recognized as being the main cause of failure in orthopaedic implants \\[[@CR1]--[@CR4]\\].", "\n\nThe mechanical properties are of great relevance when the UHMWPE inserts are subjected to high contact stresses that can exceed the yield stress of the UHMWPE, leading to permanent deformation and to the catastrophic rupture and failure of the implant \\[[@CR5]\\].", "\n\nOxidation is strictly correlated with the sterilization method: UHMWPE components sterilized with ethylene oxide (EtO) do not oxidize, while those sterilized using high-energy radiation in air (γ radiation or an electron beam with a dose of 25--40 kGy) are known to show high levels of oxidation \\[[@CR3], [@CR6]--[@CR9]\\]. ", "Immediate oxidation following the high-energy treatment results in chain scission in the UHMWPE, thus immediately decreasing its molecular mass and therefore its mechanical properties. ", "Moreover, the oxidative degradation proceeds during storage and in vivo, thus further exacerbating the problem \\[[@CR8]--[@CR10]\\]. ", "Several methods have been applied to reduce the impact of the oxidation on the duration of the implant: thicker inserts have been recommended, the designs of the implants have been improved, and the use of ionizing radiations in air for sterilization has been avoided.", "\n\nIn 1998, in the Safety Notice 9816--1998 (*UHMWPE Components of Joint Replacement Implants*), the British Medical Devices Agency established that UHMWPE components should not be used if they are over five years old and if they have passed their indicated expiry date. ", "In 2005, the Italian Ministero della Salute (see DGFDM/III/7101/P/I.1.c.r. ", "8/3/2005) recommended that the use of implants sterilized in the presence of oxygen should be avoided.", "\n\nRecently, radiation crosslinking of the UHMWPE has been applied as answer to the main problem, wear debris related osteolysis \\[[@CR11]\\].

", "We were very close to doing exactly that last weekend at Mitte on Upper Station Street, but thankfully gave it the benefit of the doubt and stayed for what turned out to be a tasty, albeit rather interesting dinner.", "\n\nWe wanted a chilled out, quick bite as a brief respite from an afternoon spent packing up boxes ready to move flat. ", "Firstly, there were no tables set up, so we were told to sit at the bar, where the girls behind it gave us a curious look as if we were either intruding on something or weren’t quite edgy enough to be there. ", "We asked for a food menu and were told there were only certain dishes available, since there was a special event – hence the lack of tables. ", "On top of all this, there were some really strange sounds, not too dissimilar to whale song, coming from the DJ table at the back of the room. ", "This was, apparently, the special event…\n\nWe were hungry, thirsty and had heard that Mitte makes the best Negroni in Hong Kong, so we ignored the whales, chose three dishes from the limited options available and ordered a Negroni Sbagliato and an Aperol Spritz respectively. ", "They were indeed very good drinks.", "\n\nMitte is owned by three friends – an Italian, a German and an American – who all met in Berlin. ", "It is classed as an ‘osteria berlinese,’ i.e. a German-Italian wine bar…? ", "The staff are mostly all Italian, and the clientele too, so where the German fits in I am not so sure – but I love a good Italian wine bar, so no complaints here.", "\n\nAll the food is prepared behind the bar, fresh to order. ", "Our first dish was the Buff – a generous portion of thickly sliced DOP buffalo mozzarella and sliced strawberries, drizzled in a balsamic vinegar reduction. ", "This was an absolutely beautiful dish, both in presentation and taste, as the tart strawberries seriously complemented the creamy, fresh mozzarella.", "\n\nOur filetto di manzo alla griglia was more rare than the medium-rare we had asked for, but was nonetheless wonderfully tender and flavoursome. ", "This usually comes served with chips, but since the fryer was being used for our next dish, we were offered a slice of melanzane alla parmigiana instead – a much better option in my opinion.", "\n\nWhen our selection of grilled calamari was not available, we were offered some fritti misti – deep-fried prawns, calamari and white fish served in a paper cone with a side salad. ", "These were also absolutely delicious and needed no sauce nor dip to bring out their flavour.", "\n\nAfter indulging in 10 tiramisu over 10 days in Italy earlier this year, we consider ourselves to be quite the experts in tiramisu! ", "Mitte’s version is unlike any we’ve had before and came served with a shot of a rich, creamy digestif similar to Bailey’s. ", "The chef rather sheepishly told us that the tiramisu had been frozen, so begged us to wait a little while before eating it. ", "When the dessert was sitting right in front of us and seconds were ticking by painfully slowly, we were unable to endure the torture of waiting any longer than a couple of minutes, meaning our dessert was a cross between a tiramisu and a semi-freddo, which, bizarrely, actually worked.", "\n\nThroughout the course of the evening, the music did temporarily get better, (albeit also louder) and we began to understand the funny looks we’d been given to start with, since it seemed the staff knew most of their guests by name, and obviously didn’t recognise us . ", "One thing about Mitte is that it isn’t exactly a cheap night out; drinks are fairly reasonable, coming in at around $100 for a cocktail, but food can easily cost $200 or more per dish. ", "If you’re into your alternative music and aren’t fussed about having a conversation with whoever you’re dining with, it’s worth checking out Mitte on a weekend for the buzz that goes on until late; if not, it might be best to visit on a weeknight, when it’s more of an actual restaurant and you don’t need to pretend to be edgy." ]

", " These geologic outliers are primarily diminutive and detached remnants of the Triassic/Jurassic age Watchung Mountain basalt flows with intervening layers of sedimentary rock. ", " All six of the outliers are found along the western edge of the Newark Basin, occupying small synclines adjacent to the Ramapo fault system. ", " The outliers, from north to south, are known as: Ladentown, Union Hill, New Germantown/Oldwick (including Round Top), Prospect Hill, Sand Brook, and Jacksonwald.", "\n\nLadentown Outlier\nThe Ladentown Outlier is the most northern of the Watchung Outliers, located along the border of the Town of Haverstraw and Ramapo, New York, approximately seven miles north of the maximum extent of the Watchung Mountains at Campgaw Mountain. ", " The outlier is completely composed of volcanic trap rock, the Ladentown basalt, which covers a considerable area, running at or beneath the surface for a length of about two miles with a width of about a mile. ", " Originally, because of its close proximity to the Palisades, the Ladentown basalt was thought to be an extension of the intrusive sill. ", " It is now known from magnetic and gravity measurements that the Ladentown basalt is linked to the Palisades by a significant subsurface volcanic dike, but it is definitely an extrusive feature, displaying Orange Mountain Basalt characteristic of First Watchung Mountain. ", " This makes the Ladentown basalt unique among the Watchung basalts in that it appears to be rooted to an intrusive feature. ", " In this respect, the Ladentown basalt can be thought of as the remains of a fissure volcano, owing to the extrusion's slab-like character and ramping profile. ", " New research indicates that the vicinity of Ladentown may have served as the primary vent from which the magma of the Palisades Sill erupted to the surface to form the Watchung flood basalts.", "\n\nUnion Hill\nUnion Hill is located near the village of Suffern in Ramapo, New York, about three and a half miles north of the Watchung Mountains, or about halfway between the Ladentown Outlier and Campgaw Mountain. ", " The hill, primarily composed of trap rock, originally rose 150 feet above the surrounding terrain, but extensive quarrying has since obliterated most of the hill except for the slopes of its perimeter. ", " Like the Ladentown Outlier, Union Hill was once considered to be an extension of the Palisades. ", " It was determined later in the 20th century that the hill was composed of extrusive basalt with a minimum thickness of 125 ft (38 m). ", " However, by 2011 it was known that the outlier, once considered to consist only of a single type of basalt, is more complex than originally thought. ", " The outermost part of the outlier is composed of an elongated arc of Orange Mountain Basalt. ", " Lying within this arc and stratigraphically above it is a band of sedimentary rock from the Feltville Formation. ", " Finally, lying within and above the band of sedimentary rock is a central area of Preakness Mountain Basalt which constitutes the portion of the outlier reduced by quarrying.", "\n\nNew Germantown Outlier\nThe New Germantown Outlier (also known as the Oldwick Outlier) is the most northern of the outliers south of the Watchung Mountains. ", " The hills of the New Germantown Outlier are located along the border of Tewksbury Township and Readington Township, New Jersey, approximately seven miles southwest of the southern extent of the Watchungs and about three miles north of Cushetunk Mountain.", "\n\tThe structure of the New Germantown Outlier appears to mirror the construction of the Watchung Mountains on a tiny scale. ", " The eastern side of the feature consists of a horseshoe shaped ridge with prongs facing to the west. ", " This ridge is composed of Orange Mountain (First Watchung Mountain) basalt which is actively quarried. ", " West of this First Watchung-like ridge is a valley occupied by sedimentary layers of the Feltville Formation, characteristic of the valley between the First and Second ridges of the Watchungs. ", " Finally, at the center of the horseshoe is a dome of volcanic rock forming a hill known as Round Top. ", " The hill is composed of Preakness Mountain Basalt, making it the equivalent of Second Watchung Mountain in the New Germantown complex. ", " The thickness of basalt in this outlier is estimated at close to 425 ft (~130 m).", "\n\nProspect Hill\n\nLocated along the border of western Flemington and Raritan Township, New Jersey, Prospect Hill constitutes the smallest of the Watchung Outliers, being approximately one fourth of a mile wide and extending north to south for less than half a mile. ", " The hill is composed of Orange Mountain Basalt, with no overlying Jurassic sediments apparent. ", " Dikes branching south from the vicinity of the outlier appear to be connected to the intrusive igneous Sourland Mountain, an extension of the Palisades Sill. ", " In this respect, Prospect Hill likely marks another location where the Palisades magma found a way to the surface, albeit not as significant as in the Ladentown Outlier.", "\n\nSand Brook Outlier\nThe Sand Brook Outlier, located in the eastern part of Delaware Township, New Jersey, appears nearly identical in construction to the New Germantown Outlier. ", " A low ridge composed of Orange Mountain Basalt forms a horseshoe around the eastern edge of a belt of sedimentary strata from the Feltville Formation. ", " In the middle of the outlier is a dome-like structure of what is likely Preakness Mountain Basalt, not unlike Round Top in the New Germantown complex. ", " The thickness of the basalt in this outlier is estimated at nearly 400 ft (~120 m), similar to New Germantown.", "\n\nJacksonwald Outlier\nThe Jacksonwald Outlier is the only Watchung Outlier in Pennsylvania. ", " It is located over 100 km southwest of the actual Watchung Mountains in Exeter Township. ", " The outlier shares some similarity with the Sand Brook and New Germantown outliers.
