What is the Unlimited All-Stars in kart racing. How did UAS originate and evolve over time. What are the key principles and rules governing UAS competitions. Why is UAS considered a unique and exciting division in karting.
The Origins and Evolution of Unlimited All-Stars
The Unlimited All-Stars (UAS) emerged as a beacon of innovation in the world of kart racing. Established in 1990, UAS initially aimed to preserve the dwindling open classes on dirt tracks in Western Pennsylvania. This concept, which started as a regional initiative, gradually expanded its reach across the United States.
How did UAS spread beyond its initial roots? In 2001, the UAS concept was tested on tracks in Florida, marking the beginning of its national expansion. Following this success, UAS made its way to Arizona, Georgia, and the Carolinas. By the start of the 2012 season, at least 21 officially recognized circuits were operating across the country, with expectations of further growth.
Key Milestones in UAS History
- 1990: UAS established in Western Pennsylvania
- 2001: Concept tested in Florida
- Early 2000s: Expansion to Arizona, Georgia, and the Carolinas
- 2012: At least 21 recognized circuits across the US
Understanding the Unlimited All-Stars Concept
What sets UAS apart in the world of kart racing? At its core, UAS represents a single class or division that embraces a wide variety of engine types. The primary limitation is the maximum engine displacement, with virtually no restrictions on permissible modifications. This open approach to engine customization is what gives UAS its unique character and appeal.
While primarily developed for competition on short dirt oval tracks, UAS rules have been successfully applied to other track types as well. It’s important to note that due to the high-performance nature of these karts, UAS is intended for experienced drivers who have demonstrated their ability to compete safely and in a sportsmanlike manner.
Key Features of UAS Racing
- Wide variety of engine types allowed
- Limited only by maximum engine displacement
- Minimal restrictions on modifications
- Primarily for short dirt oval tracks, but adaptable to other formats
- Focused on experienced, skilled drivers
The Spirit of Innovation in UAS
Why is UAS considered a haven for innovation in kart racing? The UAS rulebook is intentionally designed to encourage creativity and technical experimentation. While safety parameters are firmly in place, the rules provide ample room for racers to explore new and sometimes radical technical ideas.
This emphasis on innovation sets UAS apart from other karting classes. It attracts racers who are eager to push the boundaries of what’s possible in kart design and performance. As a result, UAS events often become showcases for cutting-edge technology and engineering in the karting world.
Fostering Technical Creativity
- Open-ended rules encourage experimentation
- Safety parameters provide necessary boundaries
- Attracts technically-minded racers and engineers
- Showcases cutting-edge karting technology
The Spectacle of UAS Racing
What makes UAS racing a crowd-pleasing spectacle? The high-performance nature of UAS karts creates an exciting atmosphere at racing events. When UAS competitors fire up their engines, it’s not uncommon for racers from other classes and spectators to gather around, drawn by the raw power and unique designs on display.
This spectator appeal is one of the key strengths of UAS racing. It has the potential to attract a wider audience to karting events, potentially increasing ticket sales and overall interest in the sport. The combination of innovative designs, high-performance engines, and skilled driving creates a thrilling experience for both participants and observers.
Elements Contributing to UAS Spectacle
- High-performance karts with unique designs
- Powerful and often unconventional engines
- Skilled driving showcasing both speed and control
- Potential for increased spectator engagement and ticket sales

The Principles of Sportsmanship in UAS
What role does sportsmanship play in UAS racing? In the world of Unlimited All-Stars, sportsmanship is paramount. While winning and dominating the competition are certainly goals, they are not pursued at the expense of respect and camaraderie among competitors. UAS emphasizes that there is no honor in winning if a racer’s competitors despise them.
This focus on sportsmanship extends beyond individual racers to the overall conduct of events. Track officials are expected to be firm in enforcing rules, using the black flag when necessary. Regional administrators play a crucial role in communicating with drivers about acceptable driving behavior and promoting a high level of camaraderie among members.
Key Aspects of UAS Sportsmanship
- Respect for fellow competitors
- Avoiding “cheap shots” to gain advantage
- Strict enforcement of rules by track officials
- Coaching and guidance from regional administrators
- Promotion of camaraderie among members

So…just what is the Unlimited All-Stars? For the answer…read on.
The Unlimited All-Stars was originally created in 1990 to preserve the then dwindling open classes on the dirt tracks in Western Pennsylvania. For quite a while, the Unlimited All-Stars concept was only applied there. In 2001 the concept was tested on tracks in Florida. As a result of success there it later spread to Arizona, Georgia and the Carolinas. It has continued to grow, and as of the beginning of the 2012 season, there are at least 21 officially recognized circuits across the country, and more are sure to come. To read the complete history of the Unlimited All-Stars concept click on “History” in the directory above.
The Unlimited All-Stars (UAS) is a national club that represents a single class or division for kart racing that combines a wide variety of engine types. Those engines are limited only by their maximum displacement; otherwise there are virtually no limits to permissible modifications. The class was developed primarily for competition on short dirt oval tracks although the rules have been applied successfully on other tracks as well. Obviously, karts such as these are capable of a very high level of performance and therefore the class is intended only for experienced drivers who have proven themselves capable of safely competing in a sportsman like manner.
Due to its nature, the Unlimited All-Stars is not a class that everyone will want to participate in; it’s definitely not intended for everyone. Racers who are eager to try new and sometimes radical technical ideas feel right at home in the UAS. The rules contain a set of parameters, and emphasize safety but were intentionally written to allow and encourage innovation. No matter what class other racers participate in, they all head for the fence and bleachers when UAS guys fire up their engines. It is the kart division that has the potential to fill the stands with ticket buying fans.
Recognizing what appears to be a strangle hold that some manufacturers appear to have over many karting organizations, the UAS refuses to adopt any rule or policy that mandates that any particular brand of product be used by participants.
Ingenuity / Camaraderie / Sportsmanship
Above all, karting is supposed to be fun, not just for the winner but for everyone who participates. Sportsmanship is the hallmark of the UAS. Of course winning, even dominating the competition is indeed the goal, but in the UAS there is no honor in winning if the winner’s competitors despise him or her. The attitude of a true UAS competitor will not allow him to take advantage of a “cheap shot” to advance in position because just as important as winning is, it is the camaraderie with fellow competitors that keeps them coming back, race after race. It is demanded that track officials are especially firm with UAS competitors and they are to use the black flag when it is called for. UAS regional administrators are expected to communicate with drivers who may not be driving in an acceptable manner and coach them to improve. They are also expected to promote a high level of camaraderie among their members.
There are many successful racers in other divisions who had lost the challenge and thrill that kart racing once provided them. The UAS, with the innovation that it allows and encourages, has renewed their interest in kart racing.
The UAS, as an organization, does not usually promote events on their own, rather they work with promoters who see the promotional value of the UAS to organize events. By UAS policy, individual promoters have the ultimate responsibility of administering events. When the UAS drivers are placed on the card for an event, they are the guests of that particular race track. With the exception of post race technical inspection the UAS does not typically provide any race officials. The Unlimited All-Stars provides the promoter with a suggested set of policies and rules, negotiates pay-offs, schedules races, provides recognition for participants and publicizes events. In essence, the UAS was originally set-up as a representative primarily for drivers and race teams.
Awards and Recognition
One of the primary functions of the Unlimited All-Stars is to establish a central contact point for managing the affairs of the UAS participants. In 2007 a National Ranking system was put into place to allow UAS racers from across the country to see how they measure up in relationship to their peers. In 2008 drivers who wished to be included in the national ranking system were required to become UAS members. This allowed an awards fund to be established to provide prizes and recognition for the members. In 2010 a new point system was established that included a national season concluding Grand National event that racers wishing to aspire to the National Champion title must compete in.

DU Varsity All-Stars
Beginning in 2014, the National Youth & Education Committee for Ducks Unlimited created and implemented the DU Varsity All-Stars program; a competition that features the top high school chapters from across the country based on dollars raised throughout the year.
In 2018, the National Youth & Education Committee expanded the competition for Varsity chapters. A tiered system, that mirrored DU’s local adult chapter recognition program, was established. With the new system, chapters now have a definitive baseline to qualify for the Varsity All-Stars program. In the inaugural year of the new system, 15 high school chapters qualified based on the criteria listed below:
- Event Income from all events (minimum $2,500 in event income to qualify)
- Chapter Silent Bid Auction Income
- Donor Directed Major Gifts
Through this new program the chapters now can qualify for the following Specific Recognition Levels:
- $30,000+, Gold All-Star
- $20,000-$29,999, Silver All-Star
- $10,000-$19,999, Bronze All-Star
“The DU Varsity All-Stars program helps to create competition and competition helps drive success. It is exciting to see students having fun and learning about wetland conservation,” said Mark Horobetz, Manager of Ducks Unlimited’s Youth & Education Program. “I am very proud of the efforts from our Varsity All-Star’s and for all the chapters within the DU Varsity program.”

Stars without limits!
On July 28, the Planetarium was visited by a group of wheelchair users, students of the New Acropolis philosophical school. The group, along with other visitors, visited the two-level classical museum of Urania, the Great Star Hall, as well as the open Astronomical site.
In the Great Star Hall, visitors watched the film “Black Holes: The Other Side of the Universe” – a great opportunity to comprehend the secrets of the formation of the early Universe, trace the main stages of the birth and extinction of stars, witness incredible collisions of galaxies and make a virtual trip to the center of the Milky Way.The film, thanks to an amazing combination of the achievements of modern science and visualization means, allows the viewer to independently experience the miracle that, according to scientists, they experience, making new discoveries in the field of black hole research.
“This is amazing. It was very interesting. The excursion was interesting. I really liked the movie. True, in some moments I was even a little scared. It was convenient to move around. There were no problems with this ”, – Pavel Lapkin, a student of the school, shared his impressions.
According to the tourists themselves, they did not experience any difficulties when moving around the planetarium. This greatly facilitated the perception of all the information and allowed visitors to plunge headlong into what was happening.
Special lifts for people with disabilities are located on each floor of the complex. In addition, for the convenience of all categories of visitors, special equipment has been installed even in the Planetarium cafe. For example, people with physical disabilities can enjoy the excellent European and Japanese cuisine of the Teleskop restaurant.
“We regularly visit various excursions. Having learned that the Planetarium had opened, we wanted to visit it too. In addition, we learned that it is also available for people in wheelchairs. We saw that it was really designed and made with care for those people who, like everyone else, want to see films and listen to excursions. Many thanks for the fact that all this is thought out here. In addition, each of the guys, due to certain circumstances, very rarely sees the starry sky.As a rule, in the evening everyone is already at home, but what can you see from the window in Moscow? Therefore, when the whole universe is revealed to you, it is, of course, indescribable, ”said student of the school Irina Tishchenko.
Students of the philosophical school were very pleased with what they saw and promised that they would come to the Planetarium regularly.
90,000 representatives of Russian show business complain about the difficult situation
It all started with the decree of the Mayor of Moscow Sergei Sobyanin.He banned mass events until January 15 – all performances, concerts, corporate parties were canceled. December and January are usually the most “bread” times for all artists, but not this year. The first to raise a wave of indignation among Russian celebrities was the singer Valery Meladze. On Instagram, he urged his colleagues to stop filming TV shows dedicated to the New Year. Since there are no concerts, then there are no Blue Lights.
“We are engaged in a rather serious and important matter.And for some reason no one talks about this. In general, no one helps our industry. No, we don’t even need help. But you need to be smart about what is happening in the world now, and that people need to be given the opportunity to work. We do not need a job, we need an opportunity to do it, ”said Valery Meladze.
His post became a catalyst for show business’s claims to power. The singer was supported by many stars.
“We also have to pay for square meters, for communal apartments, we also go to shops, to pharmacies, while not all of them live in grand style.Many have mortgages, payment obligations, debts and no benefits, just like everyone else. Since March, many of us have been unemployed. Since the issuance of the decree on loading the halls in a staggered manner, many have not been able to work, as it is economically unprofitable, “said actress Elena Vorobey .
“Everyone who was“ imprisoned ”at corporate parties is now sucking a finger, since there are no offers. Previously, we always waited for the New Year, because you can earn good money.Now all these ways to earn money are closed. Imagine how bad everything is in our field, even if such giants as Meladze, Kirkorov and Elena Vorobei demand discounts on products, ”said TV presenter Dana Borisova .
However, most of the stars were outraged by the insolence of their colleagues, who demand support and concessions from the state. Those who recently hoped for their losses are also justified. For example, Joseph Prigogine . Recently, the producer released a video, where he now declares that it is not he and the artists who are in poverty, but those behind the scenes: musicians, technicians, sound engineers, owners of concert venues.And the media misunderstood him.
“I don’t understand who is profitable today to put producers, artists in an idiotic position and accuse them of being insatiable individuals who are trying to ask the state for money. We do not ask the state for money. We only drew attention to ourselves, to the fact that the industry today is in a disastrous situation, and not individual artists, “- said Prigozhin.
There are other “cons”. So, Vitas and Mikhail Boyarsky expressed their attitude to such complaints from the stars.
“Dear colleagues, stop whining that you are dying of hunger, only Kharlamov and Guzeeva can believe this,” the singer said.
“I would not take state support, I cannot afford such a luxury. If we talk about those artists who have lost their jobs, then, probably, they need to somehow help. But I would not have been able to accept help, I would have found myself another job, ”Mikhail Boyarsky told to .
When Russian pop stars complain about life, few people feel sympathy for them, they write on social networks.But what about the stars outside the Moscow Ring Road?
The data of the Association of Theater, Concerts and Ticketing Organizations states that more than 600 thousand people working in the entertainment industry are now affected by the pandemic. The most painful coronavirus restrictions hit precisely the regional artists. For example, the Krasnoyarsk actor Alexei Popov says: theater-goers are now most of all afraid that the occupancy of venues will be reduced to 25%.
“We have to understand that at 25% it will be unprofitable for us to even turn on the light.Turn on the light and call all the services. And if you invite the actors, that’s all. One performance – the theater went to the minus,
Meladze, of course, too … I understand they have a different level of salaries and other requests. It is understandable that they are uncomfortable. But I don’t think we switched to bread and water. Sell a couple of summer cottages and eat them for health, ”commented the actor of the Krasnoyarsk Drama Theater. A.S. Pushkin Museum Alexey Popov.
If the actors still have the opportunity to stage performances for at least half of the hall, then the work of night bars and clubs was limited – after 23:00 they should be closed.Not only employees of the service sector lost income, but also musicians, DJs, singers. Now this part of the entertainment industry has come to a standstill, says DJ Roman Karpovich . And it is not known when he will heal again in full force:
“Everything related to DJs, dancers, leading clubs – all these people are out of work, their situation is catastrophic. Many are barely making ends meet, because there is no support for the industry at the moment. Someone went to another area, someone in a taxi, someone to another job, but all this for the industry will have terrible consequences. “
Despite the restrictions, now many celebrities still offer their services at corporate parties, but at a reduced price. Others demand a dialogue with the authorities, a round table, which will raise the issue of supporting the industry. Regional musicians, singers and actors do not have either option, so they have to wait for the restrictions to be lifted. But when this will happen is unknown.
Recall that in the Krasnoyarsk Territory banquets in catering establishments, corporate events and other entertainment events were banned.The head of the region introduced additional restrictions to his own decree. 90,000 happy marriages of stars in which the husband is younger – tele.ru
1. Alla Pugacheva and Maxim Galkin (difference – 27 years)

This is not the first “unequal” marriage of the Prima Donna: she was previously married to Philip Kirkorov, who was 18 years younger than her. But no one expected a repeat! Yes, and Pugacheva herself this time did not dare to legalize the relationship for a long time: they met Maxim in 2001, and the 62-year-old singer and the 35-year-old artist registered their marriage only in 2011.About two months after they met, they realized that they were perfect for each other: at that time, the relationship between Pugacheva and Kirkorov had already cracked. But the divorce officially took place only in 2005, at the same time Alla and Maxim began to live together, in a civil marriage.
“I am lucky – I live with a man who loves me the way I am. It’s easy with him, and most importantly – a big difference, but I don’t feel age. He’s smarter in many ways. And with humor he is all right, ”the singer explains the secret of a successful marriage.And Galkin admits that he will do anything to make his wife feel good: “I am so happy when I see that Alla is happy, and I am happy to create a comfortable space around her. I found my half. Well, they did not coincide in time, in age. But I like everything about her. ” After marriage, their life took a new turn: the couple moved to the castle built by Maxim, in 2013 twins Harry and Lisa were born (the spouses are biological parents of children born thanks to the help of a surrogate mother).And recently, Pugacheva completely changed her image, once again striking everyone with her ability to keep up with the times and inextinguishable energy.
2. Lera Kudryavtseva and Igor Makarov (difference – 16 years)

TV presenter Lera Kudryavtseva and hockey player Igor Makarov met in July 2012: they found themselves at neighboring tables in one of the capital’s restaurants. And already at the end of the year, Igor proposed to her, presenting a luxurious ring.
Many people note that after the wedding of 42-year-old Lera and 25-year-old Igor, held in June 2013, the TV presenter has changed a lot: she has become calmer, “home”. And if she were 20, they would have run away long ago, she believes: “All girls at this age are narcissistic and even hysterical creatures. I was like that too. And now I am calm and will no longer make the mistakes typical of young people. Igor is my destiny, my man. Now I am experiencing deep feelings – such when you understand that it is impossible to breathe without him. “
Igor Makarov admits that Lera is his first love. And according to Lera herself, for whom this is the third marriage (she was previously married to the musician of the Laskovy May group, Sergei Lenyuk and businessman Matvey Morozov), with Igor she was able to feel like a weak woman next to a strong man – for the first time.
3. Alena Sviridova and David Vardanyan (15 years difference)

The 52-year-old pop diva married 37-year-old businessman David Vardanyan secretly, around 2015 (the exact date has not yet been disclosed by the couple!).And they met in 2008 in Yerevan: at one of the parties, David started a non-binding conversation, and they chatted all evening. “I was not wearing makeup, in some kind of tracksuit … – Alena recalls. – But David was not embarrassed: for him I was beautiful even in this form! The next day he invited me to a movie. And off we go ”. After a series of dates, the lovers began to live together. “True feelings are beyond age,” the singer is sure.
Everyone rushed them to the wedding, even their own children.After all, the charismatic Vardanyan quickly found a common language with the singer’s sons from previous relationships – with 34-year-old Vasily and 13-year-old Grisha (whose father, by the way, was the model Dmitry Miroshnichenko, who is 20 years younger than Alena). And the singer herself has long made friends with the heir of her beloved, Vardan. The wedding has become one of the most secret events in Russian show business: the details have not yet been disclosed.
Alena continues to amaze fans today: she gives concerts, striking with energy and a magnificent figure, which, according to her, is the result of constant training and healthy nutrition.
4. Lolita Milyavskaya and Dmitry Ivanov (difference – 12 years)

Lolita met Dmitry, a squash and fitness trainer, in 2009 while filming her video in the Mosfilm pavilion, where he came with his friends. Then he conquered her with charm and invited her to personal training. Dmitry tried to court, but the singer did not take him seriously. However, when the young friend was admitted to the hospital, Lolita surrounded him with care – and she herself did not notice how she also fell in love.46-year-old Lolita and 34-year-old Dmitry played the wedding according to Kabbalistic rites in March 2010. This is the fifth official marriage of Milyavskaya. Her 17-year-old daughter Eva from Alexander Tsekalo, who was previously diagnosed with autism, according to media reports, lives with her grandmother in Ukraine.
“I’m not afraid of age,” says Lolita frankly. – I look so great without makeup that young men are glued on the beach. The secret is good genetics. ” She also has her own theory about marriages “with a younger man”: “I noticed that such marriages are much stronger than peer marriages, and marriages where a man is much superior to a woman in age. Women are more energetic than men.And if the next man is younger, then we coincide in energy charge. Such a union is better than any plastic surgery. ”
5. Tina Kandelaki and Vasily Brovko (difference – 12 years)

The fact that the TV presenter and producer of the Match TV channel Tina Kandelaki got married became known only in June 2016: she “accidentally” mentioned her husband’s presence on Twitter. But 39-year-old Tina and 27-year-old Vasily registered their relationship secretly from everyone six months earlier.Tina Kandelaki had a long relationship with Vasily Brovko, which began as a purely business one. They met in May 2008 at one of the events of the Russian Pioneer magazine, whose PR was then Vasily. And we decided to continue our successful cooperation: the first major joint project was the “Unrealistic Politics” program (hosted by Tina Kandelaki). Later they became co-owners of the Apostol media company. Tina and Vasily have come a long way, and the marriage became its logical continuation.
“We have been with Vasily for many years,” says Kandelaki.- We grew up and developed together. He taught me a lot, and I taught him. And he also knows how to make me laugh. ” Despite his age, Vasily managed to achieve a lot: now he is the Director of Communications and Strategic Research at Rostec Corporation. He believes that he was lucky in marriage: “Tina is super talented and very bright. She, like me, despite the fact that we have a difference in age, thinks strategically, thinks for tomorrow. And no matter how hard it is for me, she always says: “Do not be afraid, I believe in you.”The couple are raising two children of Tina from a previous marriage: 17-year-old daughter Melania and 15-year-old son Leonty.
6.Maria Butyrskaya and Vadim Khomitsky (difference – 10 years)

The very first Russian champion in women’s single skating Maria Butyrskaya and a young hockey player Vadim Khomitsky met in 2005 at one of the parties. The first Russian athlete, who starred for Playboy magazine back in 1998, at first laughed at the signs of attention from such a young fan.But soon Vadim’s sincerity and perseverance made her believe: she finally met the one, the only one – “reliable, loyal, caring and kind.” In August 2006, 34-year-old Maria and 24-year-old Vadim played a wedding, and also got married in a church: soon Vadim had to fly to America to play, and they wanted to seal their union forever. A year later, they had a son, Vladislav, and two years later, a daughter, Alexander.
“At first, the age difference frightened me,” confessed Maria, “but over time it faded away! We are interested in each other, we speak the same language, we even think the same way.Now I can say with confidence: we are really two halves of one whole! ” According to rumors, Maria is now expecting her third child.
7. Ekaterina Klimova and Gela Meskhi (difference – 8 years)
Ekaterina Klimova and Gela Meskhi. Photo: instagram.com
Ekaterina and Gela met in August 2013 on the set of the series “Wolf Heart”. Then Klimova was officially married to actor Igor Petrenko, but the couple already lived separately. For Gela Meskhi, it was love at first sight.Catherine rejected his advances for a long time: the gradual breakdown of relations with Igor was not easy, she tried to completely immerse herself in work, besides, the fan was much younger. But in the end she gave up. “Gela was persistent and gentle at the same time.

“Good without restrictions …” – “Red Star”

1929
A young citizen of Novosibirsk lost 37 kilograms of excess weight, if only he was drafted into the Armed Forces.
Denis DEMENTIEV during the passage of the VVK in the fall of 2019.
This is now a 23-year-old conscript from Novosibirsk, Denis Dementyev, outwardly does not differ in any way from most of his peers, and two years ago he was different. Then the therapist of the military medical commission diagnosed him with a disease – obesity of the 3rd degree. This medical report lit a red light on the conscription of Denis into the army. But the guy did not give up and decided to get rid of extra pounds, while showing perseverance and character.
After nine classes of secondary school, Denis entered the Novosibirsk Technical College named after A.I. Pokryshkin. During his studies, he became seriously interested in powerlifting. It is also called powerlifting because it involves doing three barbell exercises: bench press, back squat, and deadlift. The amount of kilograms after performing these exercises determines the sports qualification of an athlete from the 3rd category to the title of an international master of sports.
– I took up powerlifting because I wanted to get stronger and bigger. I always admired big and muscular men and wanted to become the same or at least approach their anthropometric indicators, – Denis explains his hobby.
He did not feel sorry for himself in the gym of the Novosibirsk State Agrarian University (NSAU), where he went to train three or four times a week. He worked there, as they say, up to a sweat. Anyone who knows at least a little about powerlifting as a sport will be able to evaluate Denis’s results in powerlifting: bench press – 165 kg, squat –
255 kg, deadlift – 245 kg.In total, this corresponds to the standard of a candidate for master of sports in the weight category up to 125 kg. And the stronger and more voluminous Denis’s muscles became, the more he trained. The main goal was to gain even more body weight, build more muscles, which, in turn, will allow you to handle a heavier barbell. And I must say that Denis “has grown” himself solidly, his competitive weight reached 117 kg with a height of 176 cm.
Perhaps Denis would have continued his training to increase body weight if one day he had not been summoned to the military commissariat of Kirovsky and Leninsky districts of Novosibirsk for the passage of the military medical commission (VVK), since by age he had already been subject to conscription for two years.It was only studying at a technical college that delayed this call. Autumn 2017 was on the calendar.
Denis says that he did not even have a thought to look for any reasons or loopholes to evade military service. Moreover, he dreamed of her:
– Everyone in our Dementyev family served – my father, grandfather and great-grandfather and even my mother wore shoulder straps. Therefore, I always knew that I would serve in the army.
Imagine his surprise when, during the passage of the IHC, he was actually rejected. A guy with a bicep in the girth of almost 50 cm and a neck the thickness of a good pine tree, was recognized as limitedly fit for military service in the army, and this is the category of fitness “B”.That is, he could serve, but not in the Airborne Forces, not in the special forces and not in the marines, where they are called up in the highest category “A1”. Yes, and in some other types of troops, a conscript with such a body weight would not be sent. He was diagnosed with 3rd degree obesity. Since this was the initial medical examination of Denis for his fitness for military service, the medical board granted him a deferral from service for a year, setting the fitness category “D” for this period: the conscript is temporarily unable to serve.Doctors ordered Denis to be examined in medical institutions to establish the cause of obesity and to recover from this in the future, in order to re-pass the military medical commission a year later.
But Denis knew the reason for his excess weight even without doctors – a targeted weight gain in order to show high results in powerlifting. Now he realized that along with solid muscle mass, he gained a lot of subcutaneous fat.
When there is a goal in front of you, you go to it, sometimes overcoming yourself
Denis competed in powerlifting two and a half years ago.
– When the doctors found me to be of limited fitness for military service, I was depressed and oppressed. I thought, how could it be, I’m an athlete. But this disappointment quickly passed, because he decided to drive off those extra pounds. Shoot as you scored them while exercising. And my coaches helped me in this – Honored Master of Sports of Russia in powerlifting, multiple world champion Sergei Fedosienko and master of sports in weightlifting and powerlifting Sergei Farafontiev. They built a training process for me to lose extra pounds, advised me on a diet, and I started training, ”says Denis.
He says that with the new training process, the diet had to be changed radically, first of all, to exclude from the diet all sweet and flour, fatty and salty, to calculate the permissible daily intake of fats, proteins and carbohydrates, and in accordance with this, take only what is necessary the amount of food.
A year later, he lost 24 kilograms, which already corresponded to the transition to the category “B” – fit for service with minor restrictions. And when Denis came on call to the military medical commission, the doctors, seeing him such significant success in the fight against extra pounds, granted him a deferral from military service for another year so that he would complete the work he had begun and bring his weight to the perfect proportion in relation to growth.Which he successfully did. During a recent military medical commission, conscript Denis Dementyev stood on the floor scales, and they showed 76 kg, which, with his height of 176 cm, is an ideal indicator. By the way, Denis reached this mark six months ago, and since then his weight has been kept unchanged. The fact that the conscript Dementyev is healthy is also confirmed by the discharge report of the doctors of the endocrinology department of the 425th military hospital of the Central Military District in Novosibirsk, where he was examined for a week.
– Was it difficult to lose weight? – I ask him.
– I had to work seriously in training, but I had no choice, because I set a goal for myself – to put my weight in order so that I would be called up to serve in the army. It happens with athletes that you don’t want to train, but when you have a goal in front of you, you go to it, sometimes overcoming yourself. By the way, my parents warmly supported me in this. I am very glad that in a year and a half I have passed into the highest category of fitness for military service, – answered Dementyev.
– How did your friends and acquaintances react to such a noticeable change in your appearance? I asked.
– Some people stopped recognizing me on the street. And when they do find out, then, of course, they are very surprised. Others ask if I am sick. On the contrary, I recovered!
Over the past two years, Denis Dementyev has not been busy with weight loss training alone. He worked for a year in the specialty received at the technical school – “technical operation and maintenance of electrical and electromechanical equipment”, then worked in the security.
In front of your correspondent’s eyes, conscript Denis Dementyev was handed a summons to the army.When he held it in his hands, he looked very happy. And he will serve in the special forces, where, as mentioned above, guys are sent with a category of fitness without restrictions for health reasons.

90,000 Back to the future: how vaccination brings the world back to life without restrictions
Vaccine trials began in different countries last summer, and since December the drugs have begun to enter civilian circulation.By March, vaccination has started in more than 80 countries, and the number of those vaccinated has already exceeded the total number of people infected with coronavirus by two and a half times.
But it is still far from returning to life without quarantines and restrictions: according to the World Health Organization (WHO), only 10% of the world’s inhabitants have antibodies to the new type of coronavirus, and the level of herd immunity required to end the pandemic should be about 65%. According to various estimates, it can take from six months to several years to achieve it.The development and manufacturing process of anti-covid drugs has also revealed a number of serious problems that significantly slow down vaccination.
In addition, discussions continue over the possible introduction of so-called immune passports, the presence of which may become a condition for unhindered movement between countries. However, it is not yet clear whether this idea will receive worldwide implementation.
Statistics on vaccinated
According to TASS estimates, at least one of the two required doses of coronavirus vaccine has already been received by more than 320 million people, which is more than 4% of the world’s population, while 118 million have been diagnosed with the infection.However, the vaccination process in the world is very heterogeneous, and 75% of all vaccinated are residents of only eight countries: the USA, China, India, Great Britain, Brazil, Turkey, Israel and Germany. The authorities of Israel, Seychelles and the UAE have already managed to vaccinate more than half of the population.
The highest vaccinated population in Israel is about 90%, in Seychelles almost 80%, and in the UAE 65%
At the same time, most of the vaccinations were made to US citizens – about 95 million with 29 million reported cases of infection.In second place is China, where 52.5 million people were vaccinated (520 times more than they were infected), in third place is Great Britain, where, taking into account the Channel Islands, the Isle of Man and overseas territories, more than 24 million people were vaccinated, and 5 infected there , 5 times less.
In Russia, the first stage of vaccination against coronavirus, as Deputy Prime Minister Tatyana Golikova said on March 5, has already passed more than 5 million people (3.4% of the country’s population). In terms of the total number of vaccinated people, Russia is in 13th place in the world.At the same time, the infected in the Russian Federation are 4.35 million.
Vaccines and policies
In most countries, vaccination is voluntary and free of charge for the population. The authorities, as a rule, independently negotiate with the manufacturers on the supply of drugs, although the EU members, for example, have to be guided by the general rules developed at the level of the entire EU. A number of countries may also gain access to vaccines through the international COVAX mechanism, established under the auspices of WHO, which has not yet become fully operational.

The main drugs used in the world to immunize the population are the Russian “Sputnik V”, vaccines from the German-American concern Pfizer – BioNTech, the American company Moderna, the British-Swedish company AstraZeneca in cooperation with the University of Oxford, the drug Covaxin developed in India from the company Bharat Biotech, as well as vaccines from Chinese companies Sinovac and Sinopharm.At the end of February, a drug from the American company Janssen, owned by Johnson & Johnson, received approval for use in the United States, which, unlike the others, is single-component.

In addition, the development of new vaccines continues in Russia, Germany, France, China, India, Vietnam, Iran, Brazil, Cuba and a number of other countries.
Despite the calls of WHO experts to the authorities of the countries to be guided in the issue of vaccination not by politics, but by the health of their citizens, the situation still turned out to be very politicized.This, in particular, concerned the Russian Sputnik V vaccine. In the Western media, she was criticized, including due to the fact that it was registered under an accelerated procedure, the safety and high effectiveness of the drug were questioned.
However, the situation changed dramatically after the publication of the results of the Sputnik V study in the authoritative medical journal The Lancet, where it was confirmed that its effectiveness is one of the highest in the world – more than 91%.
As a result, interest in the Russian vaccine has sharply increased, including in European countries, some of which have already begun to conclude supply contracts.
Problems with vaccination
The main limiting factor of mass vaccination in the world is the insufficient level of production of drugs. Because of this, in particular, the full-fledged operation of the Kovacs mechanism has not begun, through which poor countries will be able to receive vaccines
So far, with the exception of a few countries that have secured priority supplies of drugs, in most countries, vaccination is only at a very early stage. Even in the European Union, where the campaign started in late December – early January, for the time being, mostly representatives of risk groups can get vaccinated.Also, vaccination in the EU began to slow down due to a lack of drugs. Despite the demands from manufacturers to comply with the terms and volumes of prepaid deliveries, serious supply problems still remain.

Predictions of the end of the pandemic
According to WHO, in order to defeat the pandemic, the level of collective immunity to coronavirus should be about 65-70% of the world’s population. One of the most optimistic forecasts for the timing of when this will be achieved was announced by the head of the WHO European office, Hans Kluge, who said that the pandemic would end by early 2022.The rate of vaccination in early March almost doubled compared to the end of February, when a slowdown in the process was recorded – up to 8 million vaccinations per day. According to TASS calculations, under the optimistic scenario, the world will need about two years to develop resistance to the coronavirus. However, due to the countries that are currently most actively vaccinating citizens, most of the restrictions due to coronavirus can be lifted by the end of 2021.
At the same time in Russia the required level of collective immunity can be formed, according to the Deputy Prime Minister of Russia Tatyana Golikova, by August.However, this may happen earlier with an increase in the rate of vaccination
© Gavriil Grigorov / TASS
The speed of immunization may be influenced by the idea being developed in the European Union to introduce electronic vaccination passports, which will become the basis for unhindered travel both within the EU and beyond. However, critics see this idea as a violation of human rights, and also remind those categories of citizens who cannot be vaccinated for medical reasons and risk being discriminated against because of this.There is still no clarity about which vaccines will give the right to receive such a passport.
On March 17, the European Commission will present its first draft of passports in the EU, however, decisions on their possible practical application, including at the international level, will be made later.
