    The functional impingement syndrome of the shoulder is very often a result of muscular imbalances at the shoulder girdle. Combined with reduced muscular strength a scapular winging of the medial border of the scapula occurs during eccentric arm movement. The purpose of the study was to evaluate a functional shoulder test to quantify the winging (scapula alata) and muscular deficits. Thirty top-ranked male tennis players of the ATP-Tour participated at the Eurocard Open 1998 in Stuttgart. They performed isokinetic strength test of external and internal rotation and an elevation of the arm with different weights. An additional clinical and in some cases sonographic evaluation was performed

    The ASAS-SN Bright Supernova Catalog I: 2013-2014

    We present basic statistics for all supernovae discovered by the All-Sky Automated Survey for SuperNovae (ASAS-SN) during its first year-and-a-half of operations, spanning 2013 and 2014. We also present the same information for all other bright (mV17m_V\leq17), spectroscopically confirmed supernovae discovered from 2014 May 1 through the end of 2014, providing a comparison to the ASAS-SN sample starting from the point where ASAS-SN became operational in both hemispheres. In addition, we present collected redshifts and near-UV through IR magnitudes, where available, for all host galaxies of the bright supernovae in both samples. This work represents a comprehensive catalog of bright supernovae and their hosts from multiple professional and amateur sources, allowing for population studies that were not previously possible because the all-sky emphasis of ASAS-SN redresses most previously existing biases. In particular, ASAS-SN systematically finds supernovae closer to the centers of host galaxies than either other professional surveys or amateurs, a remarkable result given ASAS-SN's poorer angular resolution. This is the first of a series of yearly papers on bright supernovae and their hosts that will be released by the ASAS-SN team
