Players are permitted to play the ball with the flat of the ' face side ' and with the edges of the head and handle of the field hockey stick with the exception that, for reasons of safety, the ball may not be struck ' hard ' with a forehand edge stroke, because of the difficulty of controlling the height and direction of the ball from that stroke.

In contrast to most stroke patients, who typically prefer more weight-bearing on their nonhemiparetic side, this abnormal condition can vary in severity and leads to a loss of postural balance.

Large amounts may increase the risk of hemorrhagic stroke ( see below ): Lower amounts are not related to this risk ; 3 grams of total EPA / DHA daily are generally recognized as safe ( GRAS ) with no increased risk of bleeding involved and many studies used substantially higher doses without major side effects ( for example: 4. 4 grams EPA / 2. 2 grams DHA in 2003 study ).

But Player was only one stroke back, with a 69.

However: intake valve closure ( sealing the cylinder ) always takes place after BDC, which may cause some of the intake charge to be compressed backwards out of the cylinder by the rising piston at very low speeds ; only the percentage of the stroke after intake valve closure is compressed.

While it is true that three power strokes typically occur per rotor revolution due to the 3: 1 revolution ratio of the rotor to the eccentric shaft, only one power stroke per shaft revolution actually occurs ; this engine provides three power ' strokes ' per revolution per rotor giving it a greater power-to-weight ratio than piston engines.

He only gave up seafaring and his active slave-trading activities in 1754, after suffering a severe stroke, but continued to invest his savings in Manesty's slaving operations.

Double action is good for high-stress situations because it allows a mode of carry in which " draw and pull the trigger " is the only requirement — no safety catch release nor separate cocking stroke required.

In a four-cylinder engine, only one piston is on a power stroke at any given time.

The extra or " empty " stroke ( s ) should not be ignored, as a 4-stroke cylinder produces a power stroke only every other rotation of the crankshaft.

A calculation of this form dictates that a two rotor Wankel displacing 654 cc per face will have a displacement of 1. 3 liters per every rotation of the eccentric shaft ( only two total faces, one face per rotor going through a full power stroke ) and 2. 6 liters after two revolutions ( four total faces, two faces per rotor going through a full power stroke ).

The outer profile of the glyph is completed by scraping away with a graver the material outside the counter spaces, leaving only the stroke or lines of the glyph.

The letters are also designed to be written easily and each of them only requires a single ( usually curved ) stroke of pen.

The Prince has become even more entranced, and Cinderella in turn becomes so enchanted by him she loses track of time and leaves only at the final stroke of midnight, losing one of her glass slippers on the steps of the palace in her haste.

A key aspect of the Miller cycle is that the compression stroke actually starts only after the piston has pushed out this " extra " charge and the intake valve closes.

But I can unfortunately not explain why you need the two ' L's, only note that the ' 一 ' is also the shortcut character for ' G ' ( making it one stroke only in practice ).

The pair only received two years ' education in arithmetic and geometry before Dalton was forced to retire owing to a stroke.

* Esther " Grandma " Walton ( Ellen Corby, appears regularly in season 1 until Corby's stroke midway through season 5 ; returns in the last episode of season 6 and remains through the end of season 7 ; then appears only occasionally in seasons 8 and 9 ( and subsequently in five of the six sequels ), John's mother

These restrictive practices had a number of consequences: they made the taking of silk something of a professional risk, because appointment abolished at a stroke some of the staple work of the junior barrister ; they made the use of leading Counsel more expensive, and therefore ensured that they were retained only in more important cases, and they protected the work of the junior bar, which could not be excluded by the retention of leading Counsel.

The Bounty was Bolt's first project after a stroke, which affected not only his movement, but his speech.

" Pitman's system uses thick and thin strokes to distinguish related sounds, while Gregg's uses only thin strokes and makes some of the same distinctions by the length of the stroke.

remarks that this chapter is even less traditional than those it follows, not only in its treatment of criminal behavior, but also in the advice to take power from people at a stroke, noting that precisely the opposite had been advised by Aristotle in his Politics ( 5. 11. 1315a13 ).

It was probably only a mild stroke.

In a piston engine it is the ratio between the volume of the cylinder and combustion chamber when the piston is at the bottom of its stroke, and the volume of the combustion chamber when the piston is at the top of its stroke.

Picture a cylinder and its combustion chamber with the piston at the bottom of its stroke containing 1000 cc of air ( 900 cc in the cylinder plus 100 cc in the combustion chamber ).

The calculated compression ratio, as given above, presumes that the cylinder is sealed at the bottom of the stroke, and that the volume compressed is the actual volume.

Idealised Pressure volume diagram | Pressure / volume diagram of the Otto cycle showing combustion heat input Qp and waste exhaust output Qo, the power stroke is the top curved line, the bottom is the compression stroke

It is the ratio between the volume of the cylinder, when the piston is at the bottom of its stroke, and the volume when the piston is at the top of its stroke.

It is associated with the following components: 金, 钅, 勹, 儿, 夕, as well as the hook at the top of 饣 and 角, the radical 犭 without the lower left-falling stroke ( so characters with that radical start with " qt ", not just " q "), the criss-cross ( such as in the center of 区 ), the top of 鱼 ( i. e., without the horizontal stroke at the bottom ), and the three ( nearly vertical ) " feet " in the bottom right corner of 流.

It is associated with the following components: 火, 米, 灬, and 业 without the bottom horizontal stroke — this allows construction of characters such as 严.

# INTAKE stroke: on the intake or induction stroke of the piston, the piston descends from the top of the cylinder to the bottom of the cylinder, reducing the pressure inside the cylinder.

There are many techniques to produce an acceptable wash, but the student method is to tilt the paper surface ( usually after fixing it to a rigid flat support ) so that the top of the wash area is higher than the bottom, then to apply the paint in a series of even, horizontal brush strokes in a downward sequence, each stroke just overlapping the stroke above to pull downward the excess paint or water ( the " bead "), and finally wicking up the excess paint from the last stroke using a paper towel or the tip of a moist brush.

The corner allowed for a character's features to reach into the area normally taken up by the next character, for example the top bar of the T, or the right diagonal stroke of the V to hang over the bottom left corner of an A.

Pushing the top hand down changes the paddle entry angle to neutral in most applications of the stroke ; the only plausible point where the top arm can participate in the stroke is perhaps after the bottom arm has initiated the pull and the paddle face is at or past the paddler's knee, to add a " kick " towards the back of the stroke.

Although enough failures to hit the drop targets will release the ball to the bottom part of the course with the hole, hitting the targets and escape chute leads directly to the hole and activates a 1 stroke bonus.
