A user interface is provided for handling a group of screen objects. The interface establishes a viewport in a portion of the screen. The interface allows the user to define a set of planes, and to assign each object to one of the planes. A tab identifying each plane is always visible, and is used to select one plane at a time. The objects of the selected plane are thus displayed through the viewport, and available for handling as is known. The planes are stacked in a sequence, which is reflected in the order of the tabs. Also viewable in the viewport the objects of the next plane in the sequence but can not be worked upon. Navigation thus creates a sense of moving perpendicularly to the screen, which banks on the user's preconceived sense of depth.

1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to apparatus and methods for displaying information graphically, and more particularly, the present invention relates to a computer controlled display system for managing and displaying screen objects on a computer screen.
2. Description of the Related Art
Over the past decade, a variety of graphic user interfaces have been developed to ease human interaction with computer systems. Many user interfaces use metaphors for the design of the interface as a way of maximizing human familiarity, and for conveying additional information between the user and computer without stating the information explicitly. Through the use of familiar metaphors, such as desktops, notebooks and the like, the interface takes advantage of existing human mental associations, to permit a user to draw upon the metaphor for understanding the requirements of the particular computer system, by analogy. It is well known that designing a new system around a familiar metaphor helps reduce human learning time.
In current generation systems, two metaphors are used in combination. First, programs or data files etc., are called objects, and are each displayed as a screen object, such as an icon. Second, a system of multiple windows is used to manage the icons for displaying and operating on them. The result is a so-called �object oriented� display system.
More specifically, visually distinct display objects are provided on the display screen, and are commonly referred to as �icons�. Each of the icons represents a function or object on the desktop. A user operates on the object by graphically operating on the icon. Accordingly, even non-expert users need fewer instructions.
Additionally, multiple �windows� combine text and graphics. The windows are used to classify the objects in groups, according to the user's choice. Using a desk top metaphor, the windows may take the form of a variety of objects, such a file folders, loose leaf binders, or simple rectangles. The windows may overlap one another, with the �top� window constituting the current work file.
In many systems, a cursor is also displayed on the screen, which serves as a pointer. The cursor may be selectively moved in response to the movement of a mouse or other pointer control device. The cursor may be moved over display objects which the user may select on the screen. The user may delete information from a window, move data from one window to another, and generally operate on the windows as if an actual file or other physical object is being manipulated. A variety of �pull-down� menus also may be displayed, using a technique for selecting particular command options appearing along a menu bar, and subcommand items corresponding to the command options.
As computers increase in memory and processing power, so does the ability to hold many programs and perform many tasks at once. While this is desirable to increase productivity, more programs mean more screen objects. Running them simultaneously requires increasing screen space, to have many windows open at once.
A solution to the increasing need for screen space has been to use �virtual� windows or workspaces, that is windows that extend past the area (or �viewpoint�) that the screen can present. These are brought into view by manipulating the viewpoint with respect to the workspace.
The very success of this solution is also its shortcoming. Technically, it permits making the workspace of infinite surface dimension, which thus can handle a very large number of screen objects. However, as the total area becomes larger and larger, the user increasingly loses the bigger picture of what other screen objects are active, and where they are. Worse, when he needs a specific one, he might not know towards which direction of the extended workspace to search, by bringing the viewpoint there. Searching then resembles a random walk in a two-dimensional field.
To address this problem, a mapping solution is taught by U.S. Pat. No. 5,339,390. It displays the currently selected original screen space in normal size and perspective, but in a reduced portion of the screen. In the flanks it displays a condensed, reduced, and thus also distorted version of objects in the virtual space. While this preserves the bigger picture and facilitates searching, the more virtual space it covers, the more it reduces the screen portion for the original display, and the more it diminishes the size of the screen objects in the flanks.
The present invention overcomes these problems and limitations of the prior art.
Generally, the present invention provides a user interface and methods for managing a group of screen objects.
The interface of the invention establishes a viewport in a portion of the screen. The interface includes a set of planes, and each screen object is assigned to one of the planes. A tab identifying each plane is always visible, and is used to select one plane at a time, for viewing at the viewport. The objects of the selected plane are thus displayed and available for handling as is known.
The objects can be moved between planes. In addition, new planes can be created and old planes can be deleted. Moreover, the planes are presented as stacked in a sequence, which is reflected in the order of the tabs. The sequence can also be changed.
Optionally and preferably, in addition to the objects of the selected plane, there are also viewable in the viewport the objects of the next plane in the sequence. The objects of the next plane are seen less prominently, possibly obscured by those of the selected plane, and can not be worked upon. Accordingly, when the user navigates by selecting a next plane in the sequence, some objects are maintained on the screen, but their appearance and availability is changed. This creates a sense of moving perpendicularly to the screen, which creates a sense of depth, while not requiring virtual windows that extend outside the viewport.
There can be a very large number of planes, which can accommodate a very large number of screen objects. The user can quickly view the entire interface by successively clicking on the tabs, thereby changing planes. Searching is a linear procedure, which goes through planes. Since the planes are in a sequence, navigation between them thus becomes more intuitive, by capitalizing on the user's already established sense of depth as a third dimension.
The foregoing and other objects, features and advantages of the invention will become more readily apparent from the following detailed description of a preferred embodiment, which proceeds with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 7 is a flowchart illustrating steps for performing a method according to the invention.
The detailed descriptions which follow are presented largely in terms of display images, algorithms, and symbolic representations of operations of data bits within a computer memory. These algorithmic descriptions and representations are the means used by those skilled in the data processing arts to most effectively convey the substance of their work to others skilled in the art.
An algorithm is here, and generally, conceived to be a self consistent sequence of steps leading to a desired result. These steps are those requiring physical manipulations of physical quantities. Usually, though not necessarily, these quantities take the form of electrical or magnetic signals capable of being stored, transferred, combined, compared, and otherwise manipulated. It proves convenient at times, principally for reasons of common usage, to refer to these signals as bits, values, elements, symbols, characters, images, terms, numbers, or the like. It should be borne in mind, however, that all of these and similar terms are to be associated with the appropriate physical quantities and are merely convenient labels applied to these quantities.
In the present case, the operations are machine operations performed in conjunction with a human operator. Useful machines for performing the operations of the present invention include general purpose digital computers or other similar devices. In all cases, there should be borne in mind the distinction between the method operations of operating a computer and the method of computation itself. The present invention relates to method steps for operating a computer and processing electrical or other physical signals to generate other desired physical signals.
The present invention also relates to apparatus for performing these operations. This apparatus may be specially constructed for the required purposes, or it may comprise a general purpose computer selectively activated or reconfigured by a computer program stored in the computer. The algorithms presented herein are not inherently related to any particular computer or other apparatus. In particular, various general purpose machines may be used with programs in accordance with the teachings herein, or it may prove more convenient to construct more specialized apparatus to perform the required method steps. The required structure for a variety of these machines will appear from the description given below. Further, special purpose machines such as personal organizers can embody the present invention.
The computer controlled display system of the present invention is part of a computer system, such as that illustrated in FIG. 1. The computer controlled display system includes a display means 40, such as a CRT monitor or a liquid crystal display (LCD).
The display means 40 has a display screen 42. All of the area of screen 42 can be used for display. On screen 42 there is displayed a cursor 44 that is controlled by the user.
The display system further includes a cursor control means 46 for controlling the position of cursor 44 on display screen 42. The cursor control means is preferably a computer mouse 46, although it can be any one of a track ball, joy stick, graphic tablet, or other device such as a graphical input device that controls the position of the cursor.
The cursor control means is coupled with a computer system 48, as is also display means 40. Typically, cursor control means 46 includes a signal generation means, such as a switch having a first position and a second position. For example, a typical mouse has at least one button that the user can click. The signal generation means is used for generating signals directing the computer system to execute certain commands.
The computer 48 includes three major components. The first of these is an input/output (I/O) circuit 50, which is used to communicate information in appropriately structured form to and from other portions of computer system 48. In addition, computer system 48 includes a central processing unit (CPU) 52, coupled to the I/O circuit 50 and to a memory 55. These elements are those typically found in most general purpose computers, and in fact, computer 48 is intended to be representative of a broad category of data processing devices capable of generating graphic displays.
Also shown in FIG. 1 is a keyboard 56 to input data and commands into computer system 48, as is well known in the art. A magnetic mass memory disk 60 is shown coupled to I/O circuit 50 to provide additional storage capability for computer system 48. In addition, a CD ROM 62 is further coupled to the I/O circuit 50 for additional storage capacity. It will be appreciated that additional devices may be coupled to computer system 48 for storing data, such as magnetic tape drives, as well as networks, which are in turn coupled to other data processing systems.
On the full screen area of display screen 42 there are shown various screen objects 70, made as is known. In addition, an object 80 is displayed, made from a graphical user interface of the invention.
Referring to FIG. 2, the contents of the display screen 42 are described in more detail. Two windows 70 include icons for programs as is well known in the art. For example, one window 72 can be titled �My Computer�, while another window 74 can be titled �Deleted Items�. They are in the form of a rectangle, or other shape. The person skilled in the art will immediately realize that, while only two prior art windows are shown here, such is only by way of illustration. Such windows are well known in the art, and hence a more detailed description is not necessary.
As has been mentioned, the present invention provides a graphical user interface for managing a plurality of screen objects. In operation, the window based user interface of the present invention is generated and displayed as screen object 80 using software stored in memory 55 and executed by the CPU 52, as is known.
The interface of the invention includes means for creating a viewport. Display screen 42 also shows a viewport 80 displayed by a graphical user interface that is made according to the invention. It will be apparent that, as shown in FIG. 2, and also FIG. 3, viewport 80 is in its preferred embodiment which, however, is not limiting. The viewport can have other shapes, and features of it can be arranged differently.
Referring to FIG. 3, viewport 80 of the invention is discussed in more detail. The viewport establishes a viewport display area 82 in a first portion of the full area of screen 42. Display area 82 is for displaying the screen objects that are being managed by the interface of the invention. The interface thus also defines a non zero second portion 84 of the full area of the screen, which is outside viewport display area 82.
The user interface of the invention is made such that display area 82 can be sized and shaped by the user as is known in the art of screen windows. Also it can be moved around, relative to the full screen area 42.
Optionally and preferably a frame 86 surrounds viewport display area 82. The frame is preferably shown colored in a sharp color contrast from the background color of second portion 84. The frame is shown as rectangular, although that is not necessary.
Viewport 80 further includes four displayed tabs 110, 120, 130 and 140. The tabs are preferably shown outside display area 82, although that is not necessary.
The tabs are preferably shown arranged along a line. The tabs bear indicia, for example tab 120 is labeled �Email�. The tabs are displayed graphically, and can be activated by moving the cursor to them, as with mouse 46, and clicking. Alternately, they can be activated by keyboard control, such as by reaching the desired one by using a �Tab� key of the keyboard and then hitting the �Enter� key.
Of those, tab 120 is highlighted, while the others are obscured in comparison. A closer inspection of the tabs as shown in FIG. 3 will reveal a detail in how tabs are shown obscured. The tab to the left of highlighted tab 120, i.e. tab 110, is shown obscured with left slanted hatching. Tabs to the right of tab 120, i.e. tabs 130, 140 are shown with right slanted hatching. The significance of this difference will be appreciated from the below.
Within display area 82 there can be any number of screen objects, as is known in the art. In the example of FIG. 3 three windows are shown, namely 220-A, 220-B and 230-A. They have indicia, such as labels, showing the intended use.
Of the three windows, the first two can be manipulated within display area 82 as is known in the art for screen windows. This includes running their software, or moving the displays around, including changing which one is shown obstructing the other. In the instant of FIG. 3, window 220-A (titled �Mail Composer�) obstructs in part window 220-B (titled �Mail Reader�). However, the user can change this, such as by clicking the mouse on an exposed portion of window 220-B.
The third window 230-A (titled �Internet Viewing�) is shown somewhat obscured, which is denoted with right slanted hatching. Another aspect of this window is that it can not be accessed for running, or for moving it around. So, to extend the metaphor, even though it appears within display area 82, where other work can be done, it is as if window 230-A is behind a glass cover of a desk. Another window can always be placed in front of it and obstruct it.
The workings of the interface of the invention are now described in more detail also with reference to FIGS. 4 and 5.
The user interface of the invention includes means for defining a plurality of data structures that are called planes. These planes are not really geometric planes, but simply a suitable metaphor for representing the data. Four such planes 210, 220, 230, 240 are seen graphically in FIG. 4.
The four tabs 110, 120, 130, 140 are also shown, and they correspond respectively to the planes. The tabs are shown attached to their respective planes, which is just a way to extend the metaphor for representing data. The appearance of the tabs can be customized. For example, names for the planes can be placed in the respective tabs.
The interface of the invention also includes means for adding and deleting planes. The planes are preferably considered in a sequence, as seen in FIG. 4. In addition, means are provided for changing the sequence. Each time this happens, the tabs become accordingly rearranged.
The sequence is best visualized as creating a stack perpendicularly to the area of each plane. This provides a sense of depth, which is a third dimension. Since human users already have developed a sense of depth, this metaphor capitalizes on a preexisting mental picture for making itself intuitive and teaching its use.
Each plane is a way of maintaining a group of screen objects. The interface of the invention also includes means for assigning each screen object to a specific one of the planes, such that at least two planes receive at least one object each. This can be accomplished as a software feature, as will be evident to a person having skill in the art of graphical user interfaces.
Referring back to FIG. 2, screen objects are typically found initially on a full area of a screen. Preferably they are brought into the interface by clicking the mouse on the object, and dragging the object onto the viewport display area. This assigns the object to one of the planes, preferably the one that is selected. This assignment removes the object from the rest of the desktop. Accordingly, screen objects found in the interface never appear outside the viewport display area.
More specifically, in FIG. 4, a screen object 210-A is shown assigned to plane 210. In addition, a screen object 240-A is shown assigned to plane 240, but it is not shown fully, because the other planes are considered opaque for the representation of FIG. 4.
Another feature of interest is that the screen objects are shown placed at specific locations of the planes. These locations are preferably chosen when the assigning means initially has placed the object at the viewport display area. It has done so at a place that is analyzed as a set of coordinates of viewport display area 82. The coordinates are in terms of a coordinate axis system 88 (the axes are not shown in the screen). The same coordinates are maintained for locating the screen object on the plane.
The invention further includes means for selecting a plane. Preferably, selecting automatically deselects all prior selections, and only one plane is selected at a time. The preferred means for selecting is by including means for displaying an identifying tab for each plane, and means for activating the tab corresponding to the plane that is desired to be selected. For example, and as was also described above, in the preferred embodiment, each of tabs 110, 120, 130 140, as seen in FIG. 3, is activated by pointing on it with the mouse and clicking. Alternately, using the tab key can highlight choices, until the �Enter� key is hit to confirm the highlighted choice.
An important advantage of the present invention is that it can access any one of the planes, regardless of how much deeper it is with respect to the selected plane. Such access can be with one click, because in the preferred embodiment, all tabs are always displayed.
The interface of the invention further includes means for displaying the tab corresponding to the selected plane more prominently than the other tabs. For example, referring to FIG. 3, and as also described above, tab 120 that is also labeled �Email� is highlighted. Referring to FIG. 4, this means that plane 220, which corresponds with highlighted tab 120 is selected. That is why plane 220 is shown with a solid line boundary, whereas the other planes are not.
The sense of depth is further enhanced by the aligning of the tabs. Tabs to the left of tab 120 are for planes �above� the selected plane, while tabs to the right of tab 120 are for planes located �deeper� than the selected plane. This sense is further created by an optional differential highlighting of the tabs for planes above (left slanted) versus for those for planes below (right slanted) the selected plane.
The interface of the invention further includes means for displaying in viewport display area 82 at least one of the objects assigned to selected plane 220. The displaying means (such as a driver) displays each object at the respective coordinates where the object has been placed.
The interface of the invention preferably also includes means for displaying at least one other object of a second plane. The second such plane is preferably the one next to selected plane 220 in the sequence, i.e., plane 230. That is why that plane is shown in dot-dashed lines, instead of just dashed lines as the remaining planes 210, 240.
Constructing this display is now explained with reference to FIGS. 4 and 5. First, from FIG. 4, unselected planes 210 and 240 are discarded, and so are their respective objects 210-A and 240-A. These discarded objects will not be visible for as long as plane 220 is selected.
Referring next to FIG. 5, selected plane 220 and the next plane 230 are illustrated, with the screen objects assigned to them, and also the relative locations of these objects. Contrary to the representation of FIG. 4, the planes of FIG. 5 are considered transparent, for purposes of forming the display. As seen above, plane 220 has two screen objects 220-A, 220-B assigned to it, and plane 230 has only one object 230-A.
The final display is constructed by looking at these two planes 220, 230 from the direction of arrow 250. The three objects come together, by preserving their locations and appearances within their respective planes, which preserves their relative coordinates and appearances on the screen relative to coordinate axes 88. The final display arises by superimposing the combination of objects 220-A and 220-B on 230-A, and is seen in FIG. 3, within area 82.
Another feature of the invention is that object 230-A of plane 230 can not be activated or manipulated, even though it is being displayed. Clicking the mouse on it does not move it or change its appearance. Object 230-A behaves like a piece of paper that is under a glass cover of a desk. It can be seen, covered, but not changed. Showing it, however, creates a desirable sense of depth.
To enhance the sense of depth, it is desired to indicate to the user of the interface the secondary status of object 230-A. Accordingly, a preferred feature of this invention is to include means for displaying object 230-A of second plane 230 less prominently than objects 220-A and 220-B belonging in first plane 220. This is signified in FIGS. 3 and 5 by hatching of object 230-A. Less prominently is accomplished in a number of ways, such as by illuminating its icon less. In addition, all objects of plane 230 are obscured by any one of the objects of plane 220, and can not be brought to the top by clicking on it.
The interface has means for moving object 220-A around viewport display area 82, thereby changing its coordinates with respect to axes 88. Further, the interface of the invention has means for unassigning an object from a plane, in order to assign it to another plane, or to remove it entirely from the interface.
In the preferred embodiment, all of the objects assigned to the selected plane are displayed in viewport display area 82. Other embodiments are also possible, where area 82 is made small enough that some objects are placed in virtual space, as will be obvious.
Referring to FIG. 6, a sample data structure is now described for implementing the graphical user interface of the present invention. The person skilled in the art will appreciate that many such data structures are possible. In addition, other representations are shown in cooperation with the data structure to further facilitate visualizing the interface of the invention.
The particular data structure of FIG. 6 is for the screen objects of FIGS. 4 and 5 as an example only, although it will be appreciated that other such data structures are possible. Each screen object 210-A, 220-A, 220-B, 230-A, 240-A is assigned respectively a group of data 310-A, 320-A, 320-B, 330-A, 340-A, respectively.
Each group of data can be a window descriptor structure, which is used in creating the display. Each of these has at least a field for the identifier (tab), and for the drawing context (where and how located). Further, it should be correlated with the position of the viewport relative to the full screen area.
Each window descriptor structure moreover has a field for the plane number, which is the serial number of the plane in the sequence of the planes. In the example of this document, the sequence includes four planes (210, 220, 230, 240), and that is how the interface also numbers the planes. The selected plane is 220, which is the second in the sequence.
Additionally, the window descriptor structure includes a visibility flag. This is adjusted to be 1 if the object is the selected plane or the plane next to it, and 0 otherwise. In this example the selected plane is the second (number 2) in the sequence of four. The objects with a visibility flag of 0 are not displayed.
Furthermore, the window descriptor structure includes an obscuration flag. This is set to 0 (no obscuration applied), except for the objects of the plane next to the one selected. This means the flag will be set to 1 for the objects with plane number 3. When the flag is 1, the object is displayed less prominently than others, and obscured by them, as is object 230-A in FIG. 3.
To the right of each data structure box 310-A, 320-A, 320-B, 330-A, 340-A is a box representation of the corresponding screen object 210-A, 220-A, 220-B, 230-A, 240-A. In addition, these are lined up, which creates the sense of depth. The visible range 350 spans the objects in the selected plane (number 2), and the one in the immediately deeper plane (number 3). Of those, the objects in the selected plane are accessible 360 for moving and/or working on, whereas those in the deeper plane are only visible, as if through a glass cover 370.
Objects in planes �higher� or �deeper� than the visible range are not displayed at all. They can be accessed by changing the selected plane, which changes what is visible and what is accessible.
A number of users feel personally present in the screen they are working on. Such users will get a sense that planes that are deeper in the sequence than the selected plane are �ahead� of them, plus they can even see the first one through glass cover 370. Furthermore, planes that are above the selected one will feel �behind� the user.
As such, a user looking at the screen of FIG. 2 will mentally separate the screen in two parts. The part outside the viewport of the invention will feel two dimensional, flat. The part within the viewport display area will feel that it has depth, and can include many more items for the screen surface it commands.
The interface can be changed from what is described. For example, it can be made to display without making accessible more than one of the planes deeper than the selected plane.
FIG. 7 is a flowchart illustrating steps for performing a method according to the invention. The method is for using a graphical interface for managing a plurality of screen objects found on a full area of a screen, and is described also with reference to FIGS. 1-6 and their attendant description.
As a first step 410, a viewport display area 82 is established in a first portion of the full area of screen 42. This defines a non zero second portion of the full area of the screen outside the viewport display area. In addition, the methods of the invention includes steps such as resizing or reshaping the viewport display area, or moving it around within the full area of screen 42.
Next, as step 420, a plurality of planes is defined. A plane can be deleted after it is defined. Then (step 430), a tab is displayed for each plane. The tab can be customized (step 440).
The planes are preferably arranged in a sequence (step 450) that can be changed. The tabs appear in a linear sequence that reflects the sequence of the planes.
Then, according to step 460, each screen object is assigned to a specific one of the planes. This places the object within the management of the interface, and thus prevents it from being displayed in the second portion of the full area of the screen that is outside viewport display area 82.
Assignments can be such that at least two planes receive at least one object each. Once assigned, the object can be unassigned from a plane and assigned to a different plane. This can be accomplished by selecting the original plane of the object, then dragging the object out of the plane, then selecting the new plane, then reinserting the object in the new plane. Other methods can be implemented, that do not necessitate temporarily removing the object from the interface. For example, by using the mouse, an object may be selected, dragged over the tab of a new plane (thus selecting the plane), and then dragged to a position within the new plane.
Upon assignment, each object is also automatically assigned to a location of the plane that corresponds to x-y coordinates of viewport display area 82. That location can be changed by clicking on the object with the mouse, and dragging it within viewport display area 82.
Then, according to step 470, any one of the planes is selected. Preferably, that is accomplished by pointing and clicking on the tab of the plane that is desired to be selected. This preferably deselects all prior selections. As such, only one plane is selected at a time.
Next, according to step 480, the objects of the selected plane are displayed within area 82. Preferably the interface does this automatically after a new plane is selected. In any event, at least one object is preferably selected. If the viewport display area is manipulated to be wide enough, all the objects will be viewable. The objects are displayed at the coordinates of area 82 where they were assigned. All such displayed objects of the selected plane are selectable, e.g. by pointing and clicking.
In addition, upon selection of a plane the tab corresponding to the selected plane is displayed more prominently than the other tabs.
In addition, according to step 490, there is displayed at least one other object of a second plane. Preferably the second plane is the next one in the sequence of planes. Preferably it is displayed less prominently than objects belonging in the first plane, obscured by them, and in any event it is not activatable.
It will be appreciated that a number of extensions are possible, even though not necessarily preferred. First, each of the planes can be larger than the display area of the viewport. In turn, the display area of the viewport will be viewing only a portion of the selected plane, and can be manipulated to view another portion.
A person skilled in the art will be able to practice the present invention in view of the present description, where numerous details have been set forth in order to provide a more thorough understanding of the invention. In other instances, well-known features have not been described in detail in order not to obscure unnecessarily the invention. As the person will appreciate, many of the features described as means for plus function can be accomplished as software features. In addition, the method steps can be performed equivalently in different possible orders.
While the invention has been disclosed in its preferred form, the specific embodiments thereof as disclosed and illustrated herein are not to be considered in a limiting sense. Indeed, it should be readily apparent to those skilled in the art in view of the present description that the invention can be modified in numerous ways. Applicant regards the subject matter of the invention to include all combinations and subcombinations of the various elements, features, functions and/or properties disclosed herein. No single feature, function, element or property of the disclosed embodiments is essential. The following claims define certain combinations and subcombinations, which are regarded as novel and non-obvious. Additional claims for other combinations and subcombinations of features, functions, elements and/or properties may be presented in this or a related application for patent. Such additional claims are also regarded as included within the subject matter of applicant's invention irrespectively of whether they are broader, narrower, or equal in scope to the original claims.

Ripley Castle
Ripley Castle
North Yorkshire
01423 770152
01423 771745
In 2009 Ripley Castle has been the home of the Ingilby family for the last seven hundred years.
The castle's history is one of political, military, religious and social turbulence, of plague and persecution, of renaissance, enlightenment and industrial revolution. It is a tale of romance, courage, loyalty and recklessness. There is no final chapter because we are still here, still enjoying the adventure.
Henry Ingilby collected taxes for Edward III and helped the king to finance the construction of Windsor Castle. His brother Thomas saved the king's life and was knighted for his courage.
James I stayed at the castle in 1603. By 1605 the Ingilbys were plotting to kill him: nine of the eleven known conspirators of the Gunpowder Plot were close relations or associates.
'Trooper' Jane Ingilby held Oliver Cromwell prisoner overnight in the castle's Library. Sir John Ingilby rebuilt the castle but lost his wife. His son, a notable and colourful eccentric, rebuilt Ripley and endowed it with a huge Hotel de Ville.
As well as the Castle you can visit the gardens and grounds, the Castle Tearooms, or purchase gifts in our shop.

The following data elements are being validated for the first time this year:
- P40c, Date of last IEP
- A20.c, Types of training received OJE
- E6b, Date of termination letter
- U.8, Did employer provide an OJE training site for this participant?
The source documentation requirements for these elements were included in the versions of the DV Handbook released in February and March of 2014.
This revision of the DV Handbook provides clarification on the process with respect to working with sub-grantees, the rules for electronic documentation, and the source documentation requirements for the following data elements:
- P14, Total includable family income (12-month or 6-month annualized)
- P26 Disability
- P45, Recert: Total includable family income (12-month or 6 month annualized)
- U29d and U29f, Earnings for second and third quarters after exit
As always, you have six months from the date on which the sample was made available to complete the validation process, so this year's deadline is June 1, 2015.
On Monday, April 14 from 2-3pm ET, we will hold an online chat with Associates for Training and Development on using on-the-job experience (OJE). A4TD staff will be on hand to discuss how they use OJE - how they market to employers, how they select participants to participate, and the technical details of their OJE contracts - and the employment outcomes that they have experienced as a result. If you want to use OJE in your program but are unsure how to start, this is a great chance to ask questions of a grantee who is already using it.
Before the chat, you can
review A4TD's overview of their use of OJE and some of the success stories that
have come out of it. You may also want to revisit our webinar On-the-Job Experience: Your Secret Weapon for Making Placements and our one page tip sheet on OJE.

Components made in Keene to be used on NASA mission
The components were delivered in May, according to Corning spokesman Joe Dunning.
"What the mirrors do is they will collect an image of light reflected by the asteroid, which helps an instrument called OVIRS that will study the asteroid," Dunning said.
The OSIRIS-REx mission is being taken on through a partnership that includes the University of Arizona and NASA's Goddard Spaceflight Center.
"We have supplied window glass for all of NASA manned spacecraft's beginning with Alan Shepard 1961 Freedom 7 flight when he became the first American in space," Dunning said. "So we've had a long history with NASA."

I brought down a ufo - please read

Phil from Uk, Ok?
Post Content
Hello there, my full name is Hansel Jermain Dilpinson
(i was born in Romania), but moved to the UK over 20 years ago and have lived in the UK since.
We have had in my area of town, many sightings of ufos, orbs, lights for some time..
There have been news reports of them too, investigations, yet it has turned up with nothing.
Last night, under the cover of darkness, myself and a number of other investigators from the birmingham ufo group (we are the only active uk group that deals with abductees and ufos etc) just do a google search for BUFOG (the person in charge is dave my next door neighbour)!
We saw a light flashing, and it got nearer and nearer, as it approached the ground started to shake, i was scared, literally scared i had never felt like this before.
Suddenly it started to descend.
We ran away, and kept on running for a mile, all the time excpecting it to be behind or above us, but when we got back to the house it was gone.
We decided that this could be the biggest story in the history of mankind, and decided to get our video cameras, and to go back out to film it.
I brought with my a rocket grenade launcher just in case (i have one still from my time in the army), and yes its licenced, as i, as a high ranking officer am still called up to the army from time to time, so i have not officially retired yet.
Anyway, we went back out, and headed back for the spot we had been in earlier, we didnt need to wait long.
Almost at once above us, the craft appeared again, it was huge about the size of a large house. It had portholes and a dome on top.
Without a second thought i fired the launcher. It hit it, but had no effect at all.
I remembered fellow members of the ufo group saying that whilst they are in the air they have a magnetic distortion field around them which protects them.
I realised i would have to strike when they landed, and so i did. I waited for it to hover to the ground and as it was about to touch down, i fired...
With a huge explosion, that was heard for miles (my wife rung me up from work at the farm 2 miles ago to ask if everything was okay as she heard the blast), the craft came down, and with a smash, hit the group at a 90 degree angle.
There it came to rest.
No entities came out, nothing.
We panicked and run back to the house.
A few hours later were mustered up the courage to come back, and the flames/smoke had gone out, and the ufo was still in the same position at a 90 degree angle.
The area it is in, is a very rarely used footpath, as the entrance to it is covered in trees, so only the locals whove lived there for many years know about it.
We are not sure what to do now, do we ring for help, do we take the risk and try open the portholes? what do we do.
I would like to ask for advice, and really want to thank you for reading this.

A young Riverdance star is among the three Irish women presumed dead in the Air France disaster.
A champion Irish dancer, Dr Eithne Walls was from Ballygown in Co. Down and had been living in Dublin where she worked as a doctor.
Riverdance chief Julian Erskine said that the dance troupe had been devastated by the news.
Erskine, executive producer of Riverdance, said Walls was a well-known and popular member of the cast.
"They're all devastated. She was a very popular and talented member of the troupe," he said.
Eithne had been a dancer for over 20 years, ranking consistently in all of the major competitions and held medals from the Ulster, All-Ireland, American and British Nationals and the World Championships.
She joined Riverdance after she retired from competition in 2000, and her first stint with the show saw her do a year on Broadway.
Soon after she began six years of medical studies at Trinity College, Dublin.
However, she managed to combine dancing with her studies and performed with the Riverdance "flying squad," dancing in China, Qatar, Germany and France.
She returned as a full-time cast member in 2004 and joined Riverdance at the Gaiety in Dublin for its summer run.
A family friend told the Belfast Telegraph: "Everyone in Ballygowan and the Darragh Cross area is totally stunned by this news.

New to Typophile? Accounts are free, and easy to set up.
I love the Intellecta Monograms family and just bought a bunch of the sets to use in engraved custom stationery design. However, they're nearly unusable without some kind of keyboard or character map.
How are users supposed to be able to find anything? I've gone all of the glyphs for each set but it's making my brain hurt. Ugh. Does anyone know of a guide to these fonts?
Don't get me wrong, they are beautiful but I'm disappointed. Can anyone offer any support here? Perhaps user paulow can help.
I'm looking for something just like this: http://origin.myfonts.com/s/aw/original/44/0/22544.pdf
or this: http://origin.myfonts.com/s/aw/original/58/0/30085.pdf
how about asking the creators/distributors?
Thanks oldnick. I tried that but got no answer. I figured, since he's a member here, he might see this.
You could navigate to the Glyphs page for each font, and then do a screen grab...
I gave up. They're crashing my font management and design software and making design life ... interesting.
Thanks for your help, oldnick!

Bachmann Tries To Regain Early Iowa Lead
By Sarah McCammon
Minnesota Congresswoman Michele Bachmann once appeared to be the favored Republican presidential candidate in Iowa. But she's been near the bottom of most polls since. Bachmann is making an aggressive push to finish well in next month's Iowa caucuses, and she embarks on a multi-day bus tour of the state Friday.

An improved seal retainer for an undersea hydraulic coupling member, which utilizes pressure energized metal seals to maintain fluid integrity. One or more metal seals designed to have a press or interference fit are utilized in such a way that pressurized fluid trying to escape past the seal actually helps to pressure energize the seal to ensure a better seal.

a. a first metal seal integral with the seal retainer for creating a pressure-energized seal between the seal retainer and a probe of a male coupling member inserted in a female hydraulic coupling member containing the seal retainer; and,
b. a second metal seal integral with the seal retainer for creating a pressure-energized seal between the seal retainer and a female hydraulic coupling member containing the seal retainer.

1. Field of the Invention
This invention relates, in general, to hydraulic couplings, and specifically to hydraulic couplings used in undersea drilling and production applications. More particularly, the invention involves undersea hydraulic couplings having seal retainers that hold and retain seals between the coupling members. The improved seal retainer of the present invention utilizes pressure actuated metal seals to improve the fluid integrity of the seal retainer and associated hydraulic coupling.
2. Description of Related Art
Subsea hydraulic couplings are old in the art. The couplings generally consist of a male member and a female member with seals to seal the junction between the male and female members. The female member generally has a cylindrical body with a relatively large diameter bore at one end and a relatively small diameter bore at the other. The small bore facilitates connections to hydraulic lines, while the large bore contains the seals and receives the male portion of the coupling. The male member includes a probe section insertable into the large bore of the female member. According to various embodiments of the device, the seals either abut the end, or face, of the male member or engage the male member about its outer circumference. Hydraulic fluid is then free to flow through the female and male portions of the coupling and seals prevent that flow from escaping about the joints of the coupling.
Optionally, a check valve may be installed in the female member and also in the male member. Each check valve is open when the coupling is made up; however, each check valve closes when the coupling is broken so as to prevent fluid from leaking out of the system of which the coupling is part.
Application Ser. No. 10/285,062 filed on Oct. 31, 2002 commonly assigned to the assignee of the present invention, entitled �Seal Retainer For Undersea Hydraulic Coupling,� incorporated herein by reference, discloses a seal retainer for use with a female coupling member, wherein the seal retainer contains all seals for the female coupling. The seal retainer may be easily removed and repaired without damage to the female coupling member.
In higher pressure situations additional seal integrity may be desired to prevent fluid leakage from the hydraulic coupling. Therefore, what is needed is a seal retainer that contains a metal seal that can be pressure energized to prevent fluid leakage in either direction inside the coupling. A copending application filed on the same day as the present application with the same assignee and inventor entitled �Seal Retainer with Metal Seal Members for Undersea Hydraulic Couplings� is directed to the use of press fit or interference fit metal seals and is incorporated herein by reference.
The present invention provides an improved seal retainer for an undersea hydraulic coupling that provides higher integrity metal, pressure energized seals while still providing the benefits of removal of seals as a single unit together with the seal retainer. The metal seals are designed to engage both the male probe as well as shoulders inside the receptacle of the female coupling member.
The following drawings form part of the present specification and are included to further demonstrate certain aspects of the present invention. The invention may be better understood by reference to one or more of these drawings in combination with the detailed description of specific embodiments presented herein.
As shown in
In a first embodiment, the shell 21 is generally ring-shaped body with an outer diameter 22 that may be threaded to engage the female coupling member. The shell has first end 28, second end 45, first larger inner diameter 23, second smaller inner diameter 25, and internal shoulder 27 between the first and second inner diameters. The shell also may include negative or reverse angle shoulder 26 that extends radially inwardly from internal shoulder 27. Holes 35 may be included in the first end of the shell, and a spanner or other tool may be inserted into the holes to rotate the shell 21 to engage or disengage it from the female member.
In the first embodiment, the seal carrier 30 is a generally ring shaped body, part of which engages or fits at least partially into the shell 21. The seal carrier has first end 39 which fits into the shell, second end 29, first larger outer diameter 42, second smaller outer diameter 32, first larger inner diameter 36, and second smaller inner diameter 34. In one embodiment, the seal carrier may have negative or reverse angle shoulder 37 between the first larger inner diameter and second smaller inner diameter. The seal carrier also may include outer shoulder 31 between the first larger outer diameter and the second smaller outer diameter.
In one embodiment, the first end of the seal carrier slides into the first larger inner diameter of 23 of the shell. There may be little or no clearance between the second smaller outer diameter of the seal carrier and the inner diameter of the shell, or there may be a slight interference fit. When the first end of the seal carrier is fully inserted into the shell, the first end 39 may abut internal step 27 of the shell, and second end 45 of the shell may abut outer shoulder 31 of the seal carrier.
In the embodiment of
Seal carrier 30 is preferably made of metal. Machined out of the body of seal carrier 30 is a metal lip seal 64 that extends around the inner circumference. The metal lip seal 64 is machined so that when the probe of the male coupling member is inserted into the female coupling member, the metal lip seal 64 will be forced out slightly causing a press fit or interference fit. The distance the metal lip seal 64 is displaced is preferably around 0.001 inches. Pressurized fluid will tend to try and escape the coupling up along the probe of the male member, or around the outside of seal retainer 10. Metal lip seal 64 is designed to prevent fluid loss along the probe. If pressurized fluid is attempting to flow up along the probe, it will first fill cavity 66, which as the pressure builds, will simply work to increase the seal pressure of the metal lip seal 64 against the probe. To prevent fluid flow around the seal retainer 10, concave metal seal 68 and o-ring 70 are used.
As those of skill in the art, not only are there variations to the configurations of the metal seals that may be made, but the invention could be used with only one metal seal, or additional metal seals. The invention, accordingly, should be understood to be limited only by the scope of the appended claims.

Faced with a looming deadline to reduce the state's prison population, California Gov. Jerry Brown (D-CA) rejected drug sentencing reform, instead signing another costly private prisons contract.
A record number of lawmakers may be calling for shorter sentences and less people in prison. But in the prison industry, contracts with states and local jurisdictions commit them to filling private prison beds — or pay them to keep those beds empty.
A federal judge held one of the world's largest private prison firms in contempt Tuesday, after it repeatedly failed to staff key prison security positions at an Idaho facility and falsified staffing documents, in violation of a 2011 court settlement.

Senna/casia hebecarpa
Have several bare root senna hebecarpa to plant from Musser Forest. Was attracted to them based on their support for butterflies. Cannot locate info as to invasiveness/best site/companion plants etc. Had wanted to plant them on the north east side of small birch planting area...so the butterflies antics could be viewed from a nearby patio. I would appreciate any details from your observations or experiences. Thanks.
Hi, there! I grow S. hebecarpa and have for about 5 years now. It doesn't seem to be invasive for me. The seeds do not reseed for me either. They might if I actually cultivated them, but I don't. I have had both Sleepy Orange and Cloudless Sulphurs lay eggs on it. I do nothing to support it in the way of pruning, fertilizing, etc. It gets kind of rangy looking after it blooms, but I wouldn't be without it.
Mine gets late afternoon shade and does great. Soil doesn't appear to be a factor in growing it. These plants are nitrogen fixing legumes, so not necessary to fertilize them.
Thanks, Susan. Am looking forward to enjoying these as much as you.
I had soaked the bare rooted plants in a weak Fertrell 4-8-4 fish-kelp solution for a few hours. I then root pruned them to six inches, as some roots were 24 inches long and there was no other way to accommodate them in the rich clay site. Somewhere, I read to space them 2' apart, but only spaced at 15". They are alongside a mixed island bed that has three sapphireberry seedlings, coneflowers, irises, and reseeding annuals. Am hoping the Senna will bloom this summer. This bed is about 10' west of my largest raised veg bed and gets daily viewing/attention.
Have you ever saved seeds, scarified and planted to check germination? One site mentioned that Cassia/senna hebecarpa is the undiscovered treasure of the summer garden.
No, I haven't. I have a small garden, and this Senna reaches about 6' tall and wide. That's plenty big enuff for me. I also grow Senna bicapsularis, which is not hardy here, but reseeds a lot. It is very attractive, too, and the Sulphurs give it equal opportunity.
They don't really need rich soil, since they are nitrogen-fixing plants and provide their own nutrients and also to plants around them. They should bloom this summer. Mine was a small plant in a 4" pot. It grew to about 3' tall that same year and bloomed a lot. The bumblebees also love it, but they're only interested in getting to the pollen.
I think you'll really like and enjoy them.
