There is one class of goods, it seems, in respect of which there may be a sale even though they are not existing at the time of the contract. The legal property in such goods can pass to the buyer without any need to conform to the provisions of the Act relating to the transfer of property. Such goods are those which have "potential existence". The distinction existed at common law between future goods to be manufactured or acquired by the seller, the position with respect to which has been considered above, and future goods in which the seller had what was called "a potential property". Such goods comprehended things which were the natural produce or expected increase of something already owned or possessed by the seller, for example, hay to be grown in a field, wool to be grown on sheep owned by the seller, or milk to be yielded by the seller's cows in the coming month. 1, record 3, English, - potential%20property

The driving phase begins when the lead foot lands on the outside of the forefoot just in front of the athlete's center of gravity (i.e., the athlete's hips). The foot is driven to the ground by the hip extensor muscles. It is important for the quadriceps to fire as the foot makes contact with the ground to keep the knee from flexing excessively, which would dissipate elastic energy. The ankle should be dorsiflexed, with the foot's big toe pulled up, the combination of which will allow for the storage of elastic energy to be maximized to help with propulsion later ... 1, record 5, English, - driving%20phase
