None of the cows reacted to claw testing at any point during the trial.
Due to safety issues, claw testing was not performed on the hind limbs.
Claw testing was performed over the typical site of sole ulcer (axial sole-bulb junction) and the central part of the dorso-abaxial claw wall of the front limbs by applying a large standard hoof-tester constructed with a force measuring device (KERN FK1K, Kern Kraft & Sohn, Balingen, Germany) welded on to one of the arms.
By the last hour an attack that not so long ago boasted Steyn, Morkel, Vernon Philander and Jacques Kallis was reduced to the two opening batsmen, Elgar and Stiaan van Zyl, purveying their respective left-arm spin and medium pace as if it was a gentle club match rather than a tooth-and-claw Test.
When touched on the claw, every crayfish tested responded more intensely to the high temperature than the control (Fig. 1C).
A related application of Bayesian linear-threshold SEM has been presented by König et al. [ 28], who have studied the relationships between claw disorders and test-day MY in Holstein cows in eastern Germany.
Finally, the thermal & load performance of the Integrated Generator System (IGS) with claw pole generator is tested in the laboratory.
Phillip Manning and colleagues (2009) attempted to test the function of the sickle claw and similarly shaped claws on the forelimbs.
The surface testing system uses a claw with heated tips that would grip the ice and provide a platform for a drill.
There have been modern experiments to test the feasibility of the claw, and in 2005 a television documentary entitled Superweapons of the Ancient World built a version of the claw and concluded that it was a workable device.
Now that activists have successfully clawed their way onto boards, the next test will be whether they can make a real difference to the companies themselves.
