POWERLIFTING
Powerlifting 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 lifting weights in three attempts. 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.
In 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.[1]
Competitions take place across the world but mostly in the United States, Canada, United Kingdom, Iceland, Egypt, Sweden, Finland, Russia and Ukraine. 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.Power lifters complete 3 lifts in order -SQUAT,BENCH PRESS,DEAD LIFT. You have 3 attempts at each lift,the goal is to lift as much weight as possible with the score of your highest lift in each exercise combined.Rules- SQUAT- your hip joint must be lowered below the top of your knees as you squat into bottom position.BENCH PRESS-your back,head ,bottom and shoulders must be on the bench at all times,with your feet on the ground and you must wait for the judges call of =press= before lifting bar off your chest .DEAD LIFT-you must complete the lift in one smooth movement without any jerking and wait for judges signal before put bar down.My power lifting moment was in 1987 at physical city gym,southend-on sea,Essex i had to join the BRITISH WEIGHTLIFTING GUILD and be weighed my remembered scores were -SQUAT-200LB-BENCH PRESS -75 LB-DEADLIFT -330LBS.

WEATHER?
The GULF STREAM is at its lowest for 1,000years and this could affect BRITAIN,S climate by making it colder. The current brings warmer weather from the Gulf of Mexico to Europe ,without it we could get a climate similar to Canada- -3-27 f.Also research in GERMANY says the current may be affected by ARCTIC ICE SHEET melting and impact might be substantial.
DID VOLCANIC ERUPTION HELP WIPE OUT NEANDERTHALS?
Scientist s believe the CAMPANIAN IGNIMBITE -volcanic eruption 40,00o years ago ,ITALY,expelled huge amounts of Sulphur dioxide into the air causing a Europe - wide chill. This could have caused hardship for Neanderthals and may have helped wipe them out.

BEES HAVE FALSE MEMORIES?
A study in U .K has shown the following.Bees can become muddled by false memories just in the same way humans do.
Whaa? Now there's a second bright light on dwarf planet Ceres
Could dwarf planet Ceres be watching us watching it? As NASA's Dawn spacecraft approaches the largest object in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter, it seems to be lighting up. Not long after images of Ceres revealed a strange reflective spot, another dimmer one came into view in the latest NASA images, giving the appearance of a spooky pair of eyes peering back at Dawn.
So what's going on here? Metallic mineral deposits? The local ice skating rink on an improbably shiny frozen lake in the bottom of a huge crater? A giant Ceresian mirror or solar farm?
The answer is...we have no idea.

"Ceres' bright spot can now be seen to have a companion of lesser brightness, but apparently in the same basin. This may be pointing to a volcano-like origin of the spots, but we will have to wait for better resolution before we can make such geologic interpretations," said UCLA's Chris Russell, principal investigator for the Dawn mission, in a statement Wednesday.
As Dawn gets closer, the images sent back of Ceres become more clear and, frankly, more weird. The above image with the two bright spots was taken from about 29,000 miles from the surface of the dwarf planet. Dawn will continue its approach until March 6, when it will enter orbit around Ceres to get better views for a period of 16 months.
In the coming months, those strange bright spots should come more into focus, as should the underlying nature of Ceres, which many believe may be hiding more freshwater than we have here on Earth.FOLLOW LINK TO PHOTOS-http://www.cnet.com/news/whaa-now-theres-a-second-bright-light-on-dwarf-planet-ceres/
