The popular social media platform, has sued BlackBerry for an alleged patent infringement. Facebook claims, in its complaint, filed in San Francisco federal court, that BlackBerry is infringing on several patented processes and technologies surrounding voice messaging, how a mobile device delivers graphics, and the tracking and analysis of GPS data. In total, Facebook is asking for unspecified damages for infringement of six patents.
A patent infringement is a limited monopoly granted to an inventor by the federal government for his or her invention. A patent gives the patent owner (or "patentee") the right to exclude others from using his patented invention without his or her permission. If a patent is infringed, the patentee may sue for relief in the appropriate Federal court. The patentee may ask the court for an injunction to prevent the continuation of the infringement and may also ask the court for an award of damages because of the infringement. In such an infringement suit, the defendant may raise the question of the validity of the patent, which is then decided by the court. The defendant may also aver that what is being done does not constitute infringement.
In the complaint, Facebook claims that the infringements have "caused and will continue to cause damage" to the company's Messenger and WhatsApp messaging apps.
It is important, and quite humorous to note that this is coming just months (March 2018 precisely) after BlackBerry sued Facebook for infringing on BlackBerry messaging app patents. The core of BlackBerry's complaint, which is a sprawling 117 pages, is that the company's proprietary and patent-protected messaging product, BlackBerry Messenger, known colloquially as BBM, was a cornerstone of modern mobile communications. Basically, BlackBerry claimed Facebook made unauthorised use of its technology in its own instant messenger service, Facebook Messenger, and in WhatsApp Messenger and Instagram.
However, in the present, Facebook has cited infringement of patented technology that improves how a mobile device delivers graphics, video and audio and another that centralises tracking and analysis of GPS data.
Some of these patents include, inter alia
US Patent No. 8,429,231 (acquired from AOL)
Systems and techniques for transferring electronic data include enabling instant messaging communication between a sender an at least one recipient through an instant messaging host.
US Patent No. 7,567,575 (acquired from AT&T)
A method for providing multimedia data from at least one controllable multimedia source to a mobile device includes providing a request path from the mobile device to a mobile service platform, receiving a request from the mobile device, obtaining a device profile from the mobile device, authenticating the identity of a user of the mobile device, and determining a user profile in response to the user identity.
The direction of this lawsuit, and the earlier lawsuit is yet to be determined, but an intelligent guess is that Facebook's lawsuit against BlackBerry will be brought down if BlackBerry pulls down its suit against Facebook.

What Muscles Do Ab Rollers Work?
When you first look into using an ab roller, you may find that the use of this device is a bit uncomfortable. You will need to learn how to use it properly in order for it to give you the results that it promises to give you. In addition, you will want to know how to get the most out of the workout that you do with it in order for it to be effective.
Most people will look for ways to show off the benefits of their workout when they are looking into products such as an ab roller. The fact is that they are fairly effective in doing just this. However, the real question is what muscles do ab rollers work? If you understand the way that your body works and how the muscles respond to specific movements, then you will be able to see why this equipment is so effective at working your abs.
Are Ab Rollers Better Than Crunches?
This is one question that has been bothering me ever since I started doing abdominal exercises and ab workouts. Why are Ab rollers better than crunches? This article will shed some light on this matter and I will explain why the Ab Roller and Crunches are both great abdominal exercise machines.
First of all, the crunch is another name for a crunch. It is when you lie flat on your back, holding onto only your toes and your upper body, and then you slowly crunch your lower body up towards the ceiling. While it does take work, the crunch works out the abs very effectively because the lower abs are worked out very efficiently through the entire body. Think of it as an exercise in the same category as push-ups in the gym. Of course, it does not have to be done on a mat; it can be done barefoot or with a pair of dumbbells.
Now let's get down to the specifics. The crunch machine also targets the oblique and the middle deltoid muscles in your abdominal region. But unlike the crunches, where you are forced to use a mat, the Ab Roller uses gravity to work out these muscles. As such, it does not require you to bring your legs up towards your chest, which takes the load off the lower back. With the proper grip, you can even target your thighs without bringing your legs up!
Also, crunches are very unnatural movements. In the typical crunch, the knees lift and the lower body tucks under the buttocks. This unnatural movement causes the typical crunch to be very one dimensional. Not only does the movement lack many motions, but it can be very painful. Pain in the lower back is one of the most common complaints from people who do the typical crunch. With the Ab Roller, this is completely eliminated because you control the movement of the machine.
Are ab rollers better than crunches? A lot of people who use them will tell you that they are much better than crunches in every way. However, when someone tells you that they are better than crunches, it is really just a preference for the different types of workout that each machine offers. It really comes down to personal preferences and what works best for each individual.
Some people prefer their abs to be worked than other parts of the body. This is why some crunches, such as leg raises, are recommended by fitness experts. These machines work the front and side deltoids more than the middle and rear delts, which is what you would want to target when doing crunches. This type of workout will give you a good exercise that also helps to target your abs.
The problem with many people is that they don't always know how to properly execute an ab workout. They may not understand how to get the most out of the exercise that they are trying to do. When a person does a regular crunch on an abdominal machine, it gives the abdominal muscles a workout. However, if you are doing your crunches on the machine and not doing any form of actual exercise, you won't get the full benefits from this machine. If you can perform the crunches properly, then you will get the most benefit from the machine.
Now that you know the answer to the question, "Are ab rollers better than crunches?" you need to make sure that you find a good machine for yourself. Some people end up with injured backs and necks due to improper use of equipment. You don't want to end up in back surgery if you haven't been doing crunches properly. You want to get a good workout with a good quality machine that works your entire midsection.
How To Choose The Perfect Ab Rollers For You?
Are you wondering how do Ab Roller machines work? Many people are also wondering if they really do help you lose belly fat and firm up your abs. In fact, many people who have never tried an Ab Roller have the idea that it is some kind of magic contraption. However, this is not true. Ab rollers work on the same principles that other abdominal exercises do.
When you perform ab exercises like crunches and sit ups you will stretch your abdomen. These exercises do not work because your belly fat is stuck in between the pubic bone and the muscle wall. This creates a space that makes it difficult for your body to get rid of calories. The more belly fat, there is the more calories you will consume. Using Ab Roller machines can make exercising more effective so that you lose belly fat faster.
Abdominal muscles are the core of your abdomen. They are what keep you from flaring up your knees during exercise. By using this type of machine you can strengthen your abdominal muscles and use them during your workout. Ab rollers work by pulling in your tummy muscles into place. It is as if you were exercising with a strap on your stomach muscles.
Ab rollers can also be used to target other problem areas. For example, if you want to tone up your thighs, you can do exercises on the Ab Roller. Ab rollers also work the pelvic floor muscles, which are important for your pelvic health. This is a good way to relieve back pain that you might have developed as a result of bad sitting and sleeping postures.
Ab Roller machines are portable. This means that you can easily take it to the gym with you. You do not need to pay extra money for a personal gym membership. This is a great investment that will help you get in shape and stay healthy at the same time.
Another feature that makes this machine unique is its adjustable tension. The amount of tension that you can safely pull off the Ab Roller is fully customized according to your level of fitness. So, even if you are new to the gym, you do not need to buy a separate machine just for doing crunches. With the adjustable tension you can do other exercises, such as leg lifts and squats. You can also adjust the tension of the machine according to your baby kicking.
How to choose the perfect Ab Roller? First, decide on which part of your midsection you want to target with this machine. Next, look for a machine that has a variety of motions. Most machines work on only one or two main abdominal muscles. If you focus on developing other muscles around your midsection, you may not get the results you want. Also, if you focus on using your core muscles, you may have less control over the movement of the Ab Roller.
Choose a machine that offers a range of motion so that you can work all of your abdominal muscles. The more options your machine has, the more comfortable you will be while you use it. The more features it has, the more expensive it may be, but it will be worth it because you will be able to target every muscle group in your body.
Another important thing to consider is the resistance level. Some machines offer low, medium, or high resistance levels. This is important because it allows you to vary the workout. You can work your abs around the world without bulking up and then let your machine gives you a workout once a week.
How to choose the perfect Ab Roller is all about getting the most use out of the equipment that you choose. If you do not do enough research and put in the necessary time to find the best machine for your needs, you might just end up not using it because you do not know how to use it properly. A regular maintenance routine and some patience will allow you to get the best results from any roller you buy.
If you do the proper workout for your body, the Ab Roller will not have much of a purpose to begin with. However, if you are not careful, it will give you a hard time working the muscles around your stomach because it will be too uncomfortable. This can actually be bad for you because you do not want to put more stress on one set of muscles than another. Do as many crunches and sit-ups as you can without using the Ab Roller, then ask someone who uses one to try doing some of those exercises. You might be surprised at how much better your abs look after using the Ab Roller for a few weeks.
What Muscles Do Ab Rollers Work?
What muscles do ab rollers work? These are the questions that most people ask about these devices. The answer to the question, "What muscles do ab rollers work?" depends on what muscles are being worked. If you want fast results, you may not need to use them.
An ab roller can help you to tone and strengthen your abs, as well as your midsection. When you have a layer of fat over your abs, they will look smaller. By getting your abs to look great, you can increase your self-confidence and be more outgoing. However, if you are a sedentary person, then using an ab roller can really help you get started in losing weight and burning off calories. The ab roller helps you exercise in a comfortable position, so that you do not end up hurting yourself while you are exercising.
What muscles do rollers work on? The three main muscles that ab rollers are designed to work are your obliques, your transversus abdominis, and your external obliques. They work together with other smaller muscles, called the secondary muscles, to provide stabilization to your spine and to help you keep your balance.
What are the side effects of using an ab roller to lose belly fat? Usually, people do not experience any side effects, because the design of these products takes the pressure off of the core muscles. When you do not have that core support, it can cause your abdominals to tighten and pull on your belly fat. So, even though the ab rollers work your abdominals, they are not actually burning off any belly fat!
What are the benefits of using an ab roller to help you lose belly fat? The first benefit is that they take the pressure off of your abs. It can be very challenging to exercise and diet correctly, especially if you have a lot of extra belly fat to get rid of. Ab rollers can help you exercise and diet properly, while you also reduce the amount of stress placed on your abs. If you are someone who has a hard time resisting a snack or meal in front of you, an ab roller could be just the thing to help you stick to your diet and exercise plans.
What are the best exercises to use an ab roller? You will find that there are dozens of different exercises to do, which makes the decision on which one to use somewhat difficult. Some of the exercises that you can do with an ab roller include lying leg raises, bicycle crunches and reverse crunches. Once again, these are some of the best exercises to use to help you lose belly fat, while also reducing the amount of stress placed on your abs.
What are some of the health benefits of an ab roller? An ab roller is an excellent tool for any person trying to get into shape and lose belly fat. One of the main benefits of this exercise machine is that it is able to use all of your body muscles, which helps to burn more calories. This is important because you want to get rid of the fat that is covering up your belly. Ab rollers can help you use your entire body to exercise, which will help you burn more fat and lose more belly fat.
Do ab rollers work? Yes, they do. If you are looking for a good way to lose weight in your stomach area, you may want to think about an ab roller. They are easy to use, cost effective, and are great at helping you lose unwanted pounds. There are hundreds of different exercises that can be done with an ab roller, so no matter what your fitness level is you should be able to find an ab workout that works for you!
Will An Ab Roller Burn Stomach Fat?
Will an Ab roller really burn stomach fat? Nothing can miraculously melt away the unwanted fat on your body in particular. The bottom line is that you need to burn belly fat and this means you need to find a diet program that will work for you.
If you've been doing aerobic exercise, chances are good that you have heard about ab rollers. Many people use this equipment, but some do not understand the role it plays. For starters, you do not want to simply use it as a way to exercise the abs. In the end, the ab roller is only one small part of a comprehensive workout that you must do if you want to see results.
The key to using this machine correctly is to use the handles in a way that will give you a complete workout. These handles are used to exercise the abs by using your feet. This is accomplished by rotating the feet around the wheel while your upper body remains immovable. The upper body stays immovable because you're balancing both the body and the handles with your knees. The Ab roller is an excellent way to strengthen the core muscles of the back, but its primary benefit is strengthening the abs.
As mentioned above, one of the best ways to get rid of stubborn fat around the midsection is to include more abdominal exercises. This is not something that you just can put into any old routine. You need to be dedicated to doing abdominal exercises for at least thirty minutes each day. If you do this for six weeks, you should begin to notice a difference. The abdominal muscles should begin to become more defined and they will burn more fat. This is one of the fastest ways to lose stomach fat and to eliminate the love handles.
You should begin each workout with a two minute cool down. The Ab roller does not require you to stop every single movement, but it does require that you remove the handle from the middle of the wheel and then go back three inches and pull the handle out again. Each time you come to the bottom of the movement, pull the handle out and then pull it back toward you. If you pull the handle with your body forward, it will continue on forward until it comes to a stop and then return back to the center.
For the first two days of using the Ab Roller, you should alternate between using the handles and your arms. Your Ab roller is designed so that you can use it in the seated position. For the first two days, simply rest your arms at your sides, then cross your arms over one another. After the first two days, begin to alternate your legs on your Ab roller, then cross your legs under your arms and then back again. The amount of time you spend in this style of ab workout routine is entirely up to you, and you may want to vary it up from going all out for fifteen minutes to spending only five or ten minutes on each set.
If you are looking for a fat burning machine that exercises the entire midsection of your body, you are in luck. The Ab Roller works the entire core, which includes your obliques, external obliques, and stabilizing abdominal muscles. In addition to burning stomach fat, you will also tone all of these muscle groups. The key to losing stomach fat and gaining the six-pack abs you desire is to lose the layer of fat above the abdominals, and this is accomplished by working the external obliques. Many people mistakenly think that if they want a tight midsection, they have to exercise their abdominals, but the core is just as important as the abdominals.
Most Ab Roller reviews agree that beginners should start off with a thirty minute session three times a week. Sixteen to twenty minutes of this type of workout is enough to begin but many beginners find that as their fitness level increases, they can cut back on the frequency of their training. You will not get the results you are after from only doing one set of handles each day, but you will find that when you get in more repetitions, you are able to work harder. For beginners, it is recommended that you use a roller that has a handle attachment so that you don't have to pull or twist the bar when doing your reps.
What Should You Look For In The Grip Of Your Ab Roller?
Grip is very important when performing Ab workouts. Most people who use Ab rollers as their favorite workout tool do not know how to properly grip the machine and end up with sore muscles. If your grip is good, your grip will be perfect and your Ab workout results will be consistent. This article will provide some information that will help you determine the best grip for your Ab roller.
The first thing you should look for in the grip of your Ab roller is grip tape. Tapered rollers are equipped with tapered grips that are curved at the end. Some grip tape has grooves while some have textured grooves for extra grip. If you don't like tape, you can also try using gel or silicon based grip tape.
What should you look for in the grip of your Ab roller? If you want a grip that does not have grooves on it, consider buying a piece of tapered grip tape with grooves on it. This is the best kind of grip for your roller. You will still be able to get a good range of motion without having to struggle with the tight grip. However, the grooves on the tapered grip will keep the Ab rolling better and will also make the grip easier to grip. You will be able to find both textured and smooth-grooved grip tape.
You will also want to look for good resistance in order to get the best results. Resistance is measured in yards. A twenty yard arm length is a good starting point for a new roller. Remember to take into account the weight of the user as well as how tall and thin he/she is. A thicker person should use a lower resistance setting in order to prevent injury.
You should also take into account the finishing touch on your Ab roller. The finishing touch refers to the addition of extra grips and stickers. These can add an extreme amount of variety to your routine. You will be able to find everything from grip tape with carousels to full body gel grips.
What should you look for in the grip of your Ab roller? The most important factor to consider when selecting a grip is whether or not it will support the proper form of your movements. A strong grip is one of the key elements to effective ab workouts. It can be very difficult to obtain a good ab workout if one's grip is weak. To avoid this, be sure to choose a good quality grip tape that will provide the proper support. There are many different kinds of Ab Roller reviews online, so take time to read through them before making a final decision.
Some Ab Roller reviews mention the importance of using lightweight equipment for maximum results. While this is true, you still must pay close attention to the way in which you handle your equipment. Be sure to never put stress on your muscles by trying to pull down on the handles of the machine. Instead, gently tap the feet on the floor or the back of the hand to make sure that the grip tape is held firmly in place. Also, be sure to only use light weights and never force yourself to use heavy ones. This can lead to serious injury.
The final feature to look for when reading Ab Roller reviews is comfort. It's important that you have a good, solid grip so that your workout doesn't end up being too painful. It's also a good idea to try out different models so that you can see which ones are most comfortable. Some people like to keep their hands on top of the handles while others prefer a more natural grip. If you have any doubts about the effectiveness of Ab Roller grip tape, it's a good idea to try it out for yourself for a few weeks. You'll find that it's a great piece of equipment that can help you achieve a toned and firm stomach quickly.
What Type Of Surface Should You Use Your Ab Roller On?
In the world of personal fitness equipment like Ab rollers you have to know what type of surface you are going to use it on. You cannot use a machine like this one for workout routines that requires strenuous movements like running or cycling. This is because Ab rollers are not designed for those types of activities. You have to exercise with this device in an area free of any type of surface.
Before you decide to buy one, you have to make sure that the one you want to get is safe and can tolerate any kind of surface. It should also be designed in such a way that it can handle different weight levels. If you have doubts, then you should try using another piece of exercise equipment instead of wasting your money on a machine that will give you trouble.
The normal surface for a bike is concrete. You have to take special care when using it on concrete since it can easily get damaged. Usually the wheels of the Ab Roller get crushed if they come in contact with concrete for a long period of time. You can avoid this by making sure that you use it on flat ground. Also, Ab rollers are limited to how far you can run or cycle; if you do this often then it can damage the unit and even the frame.
Concrete is harder than the other materials used for exercise equipment. This means that the intensity of the exercises will be much higher. The constant movement can cause the bearings to wear out fast. The constant movement can also cause the motor to be damaged. If you still want to use it on concrete then you have to carefully consider which type of material will be best suited for your needs.
If you want to use it on concrete then you have to take into consideration what will be the main purpose of the device. Will it just be used as exercise equipment or will it be used for gymnastics training? Will the floor stay in place or will you need to have supports installed? These are all things that you will have to take into consideration so that you will know how to properly use the unit.
You also have to consider where you will be using it. It has been said that the best surfaces are in gyms but that may not always be true. It also depends on how many people will be using the machine. In order to get an idea of the type of surface that will work best then you should look at models that were used in gyms before.
Another factor is the design. Some are more sleek and others are designed to be more comfortable. You should consider whether you will be exercising while you are sitting down or if you will be exercising standing up. Also, you will need to consider if you prefer a hard or soft surface. Some people are just not comfortable with the idea of using one of these machines on their body. If that is the case then you should look for another model that offers a softer feel.
A good thing to do if you are still not sure about this is to ask a personal trainer. They can answer all of your questions. One of the most important things you will learn from them is what type of surface should you use your Ab roller on? The truth is that you cannot just buy the first machine that you see. You have to make sure that it suits your goals and that you are comfortable using it. With the right machine you can achieve great results and so can you.
Do You Need To Use Knee Pads With An Ab Roller?
In this article I will answer the question "Do you need to use knee pads with an Ab roller?" The purpose of an Ab roller is to provide for safe and effective exercise for your knees. In the recent years there has been a great deal of research on the subject of knees and knee pain, specifically and especially the knee area. There are many types of exercises that are recommended for both preventing and relieving knee pain but the majority of these exercises are not appropriate for people who have knees problems or who have already had knee problems.
First, it should be noted that although the Ab roller can provide excellent lower body workouts with its unique design, it is not meant for training your knees. Ab Roller use is designed for increased flexibility and increased strength within your core abdominal muscles. It is also important to realize that the Ab Roller does have an impact on your knees, however it is a very minimal one. It's important to know that Ab Roller exercises have been carefully designed so that they don't jar, strain or otherwise cause any injury to your knees or other joints. If you have knee problems, you should consult your doctor before beginning any exercise program.
Now, on to some possible applications of Ab roller pads for pain relief. It has been proven that when you are in a seated position for long periods of time, such as at work, sitting in a classroom, or even sitting at a computer all day long, that you may be experiencing joint stress and pain. These stresses occur from the lack of mobility that you have in your joints. When you change your sitting position, you may find that you are able to move a little bit more which will help relieve the stress in your joints and muscles.
Knee pads, whether they are used by athletes or laypeople, are also great for helping to reduce pain in your knees. Athletes often have to perform heavy physical activities that can really stress their knees. When they are not using their knee pads, especially while working out, this can lead to wear and tear on their knees. And if you are not using the pads while you are working out, you are decreasing the effectiveness of the pad and could end up making the situation worse. By using the pads while you are working out, you are protecting your knees and helping to prevent them from becoming injured in the first place.
Many people also suffer from arthritis and other musculoskeletal issues, such as tennis elbow, bursitis, and other such conditions. Using the pads while you are using your computer can be helpful with these conditions, as well as with other issues such as tightness in the muscles of your shoulder. There are many other medical conditions that you might have to deal with if you are sitting for long periods of time, such as lower back pain or carpal tunnel syndrome. By using the pads you can help to eliminate a number of different medical issues.
Many athletes use the Ab Roller, in order to improve their agility and quickness when they are running and moving around on the basketball court. However, not everyone uses it properly. In order to get the maximum benefit from using the Ab Roller, you need to be sure that you are using it properly. Knee pads are an excellent addition to your workout because they can help to eliminate the risk of injury when you are using the equipment.
While there is some debate among physical therapists and other professionals about whether using the pads actually helps to rehabilitate and strengthen the muscles of the knee, there is no doubt that they can be very beneficial. They can also be very helpful when you are doing resistance training on your knees. The reason why the pads are so good at relieving pain is that they can be used at any angle you may need them. Because of this, it is possible to work out without having to worry about damaging your knees. You can simply increase the intensity by using heavier weights or using more resistance.
If you suffer from knee pain, you will likely want to consult a physician before beginning your workout with the Ab Roller. Even if you do use the knee pads, you should still talk to your doctor about the possibility of additional treatment for your condition. You should do this even if you have no problems with pain or bruising right now. A doctor can make sure that you are doing everything in your power to protect your knees. He can also make recommendations about exercise and stretching that could help to make your pain worse. Regardless of how serious your knee problem is, it is important to consult a doctor before starting any type of exercise or physical therapy.
Should You Buy An Ab Roller With A Thick Or Thin Wheel?
Should you buy an Ab roller that has a thin or thick wheel? For people just starting out with their fitness routines, the answer is yes. Thinner wheels are easier to use. It takes less effort to do your ab workouts when doing them on a thin machine. However, you don't want to use an Ab roller that is too thick because it won't provide enough support to your midsection.
The best ab rollers come in many different sizes, which is important if you are a beginner. You can start working out with the ones that are made for people who are new to fitness and exercise. These crunches work on the muscles in your abdomen, and these can be done with or without a bed. Many people prefer to do crunches on an exercise mat, especially if they have some time to spare before going to bed.
However, most people want to avoid doing crunches on hard floors or exercise mats. These activities put a lot of strain on the lower back and will be very difficult to do when lying on a cold hard surface. Some people also prefer the ease of being able to use Ab rollers wherever they go, such as at home or on the beach. If you buy an Ab roller that comes with foam knee pads, you won't have to worry about lying on the floor when doing your crunches.
Another thing to consider is the amount of time that you want to use your machine. For those who can only spare a few minutes each day, it doesn't really make sense to buy Ab rollers with thick wheels. These are intended for frequent users and are much less expensive. However, you may find that they work well for you if you need to stay in shape during the week and want to go to the gym on the weekends. They are also cheaper than some other types of exercise equipment that are better for you.
There are several factors to consider when choosing the right Ab roller. First, you have to determine how you plan to use your machine. Will you be doing a lot of crunches or are you just going to do some leg lifts? The thickness of your wheels will depend on what your goal is. If you just want to tone your abdominal muscles, you should get a low quality roller that is made of a lesser quality foam handles and thicker cushioning.
You also have to consider the level of experience and your body type. If you are an average-sized person, you are probably used to using exercise equipment that uses a ball or pump to provide resistance. You should stay away from these. The best ab rollouts are made using a stability ball and a handle that is supposed to keep the ball rolling smoothly. This will provide more resistance as you exercise and help to burn more calories.
You also need to consider the number of muscles that you want to target. For instance, if you want to tone your abdominal muscles and reduce your waistline, you should get one with large numbers of foam handles. These will give you lots of leverage so that you can increase the intensity of your ab rollers exercises. On the other hand, if you want to firm up your obliques and back muscles, you should go for smaller wheels with thinner profiles. This will allow you to work your muscles more thoroughly.
In summary, the best ab rollers are not made from expensive materials or loaded with fancy gadgets. They are simple devices that you can easily use at home in order to achieve your fitness goals. Once you have worked with one and seen how effective it is in toning and strengthening your muscles, you may decide that you want to purchase one so that you can begin working out on your own.
The way that ab rollers work is that they pull your stomach muscles into place. They are designed to do this in a smooth fashion which makes it easier for you to move through them without having to worry about hurting them. If you are able to watch television while you are doing this exercise, then you can be assured that you will not have to worry about hurting yourself because it is done in a very smooth fashion. What muscles do ab rollers work for you really depends on how your body reacts to the smooth motion that it is giving you.

We are pleased to see good demand for our new Acro Darlings class in Winchester, for age 3-6. So we are adding an extra class, on Wednesdays 4:00 – 4:45 pm.

It Doesn't Matter [Sonic Adventure]
The fastest living creature, living like the wind, is our protagonist – Sonic the Hedgehog. He is cheerful and active, hates stopping and always looks ahead in life. He will always come to the aid of those in trouble and fight the bad guys.
Despite his positivity, Sonic is a realist and even as a hero, is capable of making sacrifices for the sake of those close to him. But even then, towards villains he shows empathy, always trying to find the best way out for them as well, which is his greatest heroic trait. No matter how often Sonic was facing fights, he rarely considers them to be real enemies and instead reflects on those situations as fun moments or challenges. Furthermore, Sonic shows a great capacity of forgiveness towards those he was facing against before and ones that he still sees to this day.
Sonic is a relatively bad friend. He often forgets or doesn't even think about the feelings of those around him, sometimes disappearing for a long time without letting his friends know about his whereabouts. However, he has a strong sense of rightness and sticks by those he cares about. Despite his somewhat indifferent attitude, nothing is dearer to Sonic than his friends.
Sonic is quite impulsive, quick, and tends to be rude. Not out of spite, but rather out of a competitive spirit. As a true athlete, Sonic doesn't give in to trivialities and expects the same from those around him. However, his impoliteness is only on the surface; in fact, Sonic will go to great lengths to save a complete stranger.
Beyond that, Sonic is the type of a guy who has a fondness towards nature and its beauty. Which brought him into situations already where he stands as protector of it. This makes Sonic take naps outside often nearby lush environments.
Sonics carefree, easygoing, and cool attitude might be annoying to those who are close to him at times and while his massive ego and cocky behavior could lead to trouble, he has a strong sense of justice and stands for freedom. He would prevent any harm to his friends at the cost of his own wellbeing.

He loves to be free and doesn't like things to go wrong. He has a bit of a temper, but he also has a kind heart that won't leave anyone alone if they are in trouble. He believes that life is a series of incidents and adventures and he lives by his own rules rather than the rules of others or common sense. He keeps his promises and he will never betray. He is honest about what is right. Normally he is a mere buffoon, aloof in every crisis, but at the critical moment he surprises everyone with his intensity and sharpness, as if he were someone else. The fastest hedgehog in history that can't be ridiculed anyway.

Sonic the Hedgeog (1991)
It all began on South Island, when one day the evil Dr. Robotnik decided to use his genius mind to build his own empire. To do this, he needed to build a powerful space station – the Death Egg. To build such a massive station, he needed powerful energy, namely the power of the Chaos Emeralds, so he created an army of robots, put animals inside of those robots as a power source and went in search of the Emeralds. That's where our hero comes in. Using his incredible speed, Sonic rescues the animals from the robots, finds six Chaos Emeralds and defeats Dr. Robotnik. After the battle, the Chaos Emeralds returns its beauty to South Island and disappear, scattering across the world.
Sonic CD (1993)
Dr. Robotnik chains up the Little Planet, a mysterious formation inhabited mostly by plants and where time has no power. Using the power of Time Stones, Dr. Robotnik returns to the past of the Little Planet and takes it over. Soon after, Sonic arrives at the Little Planet to stop the villain. He is pursued by Amy Rose, a pink hedgehog and a big Sonic fan. Once on the Little Planet, Amy finds Sonic, but he shows no interest in her until she is kidnapped by Robotnik's powerful new robot, Metal Sonic. Sonic chases his metal replica while also collecting Time Stones and destroying the robot-producing machines of the past. After winning the race against Metal Sonic, Sonic saves Amy from captivity and after defeating Dr. Robotnik, the two leave the mysterious place together and earn the gratitude of the inhabitants of the rescued world.
Sonic the Hedgeog 2 (1992)
Sonic arrives on his new plane, the Tornado, on West Side Island, where he meets his new friend Miles "Tails" Prower, a little fox who is interested in the plane. Despite his shyness, Tails loves to fix and build machines, so he is immediately interested in the Tornado, and Sonic and Tails begin a friendship on this basis. Soon, Dr. Robotnik arrives on West Side Island and kidnaps the animals again, putting them in robots to find the Chaos Emeralds. Sonic, this time with the help of Tails, once again faces the villain in battle. Sonic manages to find all seven Chaos Emeralds and takes the Super Sonic form. In the end, thanks to the help of Tails and the Tornado modification that the little fox manages to make, Sonic gets on Robotnik's space station, where the hero fights the doctors new robot Mecha Sonic as well as Death Egg Bot. After defeating Robotnik and escaping from the station, Sonic returns to Tails and his animal friends using his Super Sonic form.
Sonic the Hedgeog 3 & Knuckles (1994)
After his defeat, Dr. Robotnik lands on Angel Island, where he finds an energy source even more powerful than the Chaos Emeralds, namely the Master Emerald. However, it was protected by the powerful guardian Knuckles the Echidna. Despite his power, Knuckles is rather gullible, so Robotnik convinces the echidna that Sonic and Tails are trying to steal the Master Emerald, thus turning Knuckles against the heroes. Soon, Sonic and Tails arrive on Angel Island and are immediately attacked by Knuckles, who takes the Chaos Emeralds from the heroes and hides them around the island. Sonic and Tails pursue Knuckles and Robotnik, recovering the Chaos Emeralds along the way. After destroying the Launch Base, the heroes find a portal to the Master Emerald, which they use to enhance the Chaos Emeralds to Super Emeralds. Using their power, Sonic uses the Hyper Sonic form and Tails uses the Super Tails form. Together the heroes defeat Knuckles, but Robotnik takes advantage of this to steal the Master Emerald. Realizing his mistake, Knuckles helps the heroes pursue the doctor. Sonic and Tails, in the process defeating another iteration of Metal Sonic – Neo Metal Sonic, make their way to the Death Egg rebuilt with the help of the Master Emerald. Facing off in the final battle, Sonic and Tails defeat Great Eggman Robo, but even then Robotnik doesn't give up and tries to escape in his Death Egg Bot. Sonic, using his Hyper Sonic form, catches up with the villain and defeats him, returning the Master Emerald.
Sonic Adventure (1998)
The much-grown Sonic faces a new threat: the mighty Chaos monster. Dr. Robotnik frees this monster from Master Emerald with the hope that Chaos will help him build his empire. Chaos can absorb Chaos Emeralds and become stronger, so Sonic teamed up with Tails and after giving Robotnik the nickname Eggman, sets out in search of Emeralds. In the process, the heroes are contacted by a mysterious red spirit, apparently trying to help in the fight against Chaos. In the end, Chaos manages to absorb all the Chaos Emeralds and becomes Perfect Chaos, flooding all of Station Square. The red spirit that has been with the heroes all along materializes next to Sonic, turning out to be a girl who lived many years ago named Tikal. Tikal was a friend of Chaos, but she saw no other way but to re-seal Chaos into Master Emerald forever. Sonic flatly refuses this option and believes that this approach won't solve the problem because Chaos's hatred won't go anywhere. By using the positive power of the Chaos Emeralds Sonic becomes Super Sonic and defeats Perfect Chaos in battle. The weakened Chaos speaks to Tikal, and she manages to extinguish the pain and rage of the distraught monster. After thanking the heroes, Tikal and Chaos return to Master Emerald and Sonic doesn't stop on his adventure.
Sonic Adventure 2 (2001)
Sonic is suddenly captured by the GUN (Guardian Units of Nations) military for reasons unknown to him. He escapes from captivity and after a battle with the military, encounters the cause of all his troubles, a black hedgehog holding the Chaos Emerald in his hand. Sonic realizes that the black hedgehog stole the Emerald and because of their resemblance it was Sonic who ended up being attacked by the military. Sonic attacks the impostor, but he, using the Chaos Emerald, teleports away from the attack. Sonic is shocked by this technique, while the one who used it appears as Shadow the Hedgehog, the Ultimate Life Form. The black hedgehog escapes and Sonic ends up being captured on Prison Island by the military. Soon, Sonic is rescued from captivity by Tails and Amy. Sonic encounters Shadow again on the same island, but their fight is interrupted by an impending island explosion from which the heroes miraculously manage to escape on the Tornado. Shortly after the explosion, Dr. Eggman (apparently taking his insult as his nickname) announces that he is capable of destroying the entire planet unless its inhabitants surrender to the mercy of the Eggman Empire within 24 hours. To demonstrate his serious intentions, Eggman uses an energy beam to destroy half the moon. The heroes assume that Eggman is using the power of the Chaos Emeralds, so using the Emerald possessed by Tails, they learn that the other 6 Emeralds are in space. By sneaking into the President's limousine, (who's talking to Eggman at this moment), Sonic and Tails manage to find out that the villain is on the space colony Ark. Together, Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, and Amy steal a rocket from the doctor and head for the colony. There, Tails gives Sonic a fake Chaos Emerald capable of detonating Eggman's weapon from within, causing a critical error, but Sonic fails to execute the plan as Amy is captured. While rushing to the rescue, Sonic encounters Eggman, who demands the Emerald in exchange for Amy's life. Sonic tries to trick the doctor by giving him the fake Emerald, but due to a mistake by Tails, the plan fails and Sonic is dropped into outer space. Using the power of the fake Emerald, Sonic manages to copy Shadow's technique, Chaos Control, and teleports back to the colony. There, Sonic rushes to the weapon, but once again encounters Shadow in combat. After the battle, too much time had been lost so Sonic destroys Eggman's weapon from the outside instead of the original plan, preventing the shot. However, despite his best efforts, Eggman still manages to insert the last Chaos Emerald into the weapon and the colony's system uses their energy to send the colony into the planet and destroy all life on it. Heroes and villains unite to stop the colony from falling, but an Ultimate Life Form prototype, the Biolizard, stands in their way. Taking the form of Super Sonic and Super Shadow, the hedgehogs defeat the monster. Shadow heroically dies in battle, and all the heroes bid farewell to Shadow and word of his sacrifice spreads throughout the planet he saved.

Sonic defeats Shadow and black hedgehog leaves, telling Sonic to keep an eye on the robot. Tails analyzes the robot and discovers that it is a very powerful machine, capable of absorbing Chaos Emeralds thus becoming stronger, as well as copying the fighting techniques of other fighters. Sonic finds this very cool and decides to upgrade the robot to the max. Sonic gives the robot the name Emerl and they begin their adventure together. In the process, Emerl forms his own personality and he builds a very friendly relationship with Sonic, Tails, Rouge, Knuckles, Amy, Cream, and even Shadow, but it also turns out that when Emerl absorbs all the Chaos Emeralds, he will lose control and destroy the entire world. Shadow, using a program left by Dr. Gerald Robotnik, disables the system and Emerl safely absorbs the seventh Chaos Emerald. Soon, however, due to the severe emotional turmoil caused by Eggman's deception, Emerl goes out of control and triggers the system to destroy the world.

It turns out that Dr. Gerald Robotnik has embedded a program in Emerl that will explode if he tries to destroy the planet.

Sonic faced Arthur in battle, but Merlina stopped the hedgehog and teleported him away from the battle along with herself. After explaining that Sonic himself could not defeat the King, the sorceress took the hedgehog to the place where the ancient sacred sword Caliburn rested in stone. Sonic and Caliburn didn't like each other at first, since Sonic wasn't noble enough in the sword's opinion. But alas, even the power of this sword was not enough to defeat Arthur, causing Sonic to go on a long journey in order to become stronger as a knight and defeat the dark king. Together, Sonic and Caliburn defeated the Knights of the Round Table, took 3 other sacred swords from them, visited Lady of the Lake, and completed the test of becoming a true knight.

He drains their life energy, (which is called Hyper-go-on) in order to use that energy to seize control of the minds of those living in Sonic's world. The Wisps that had been sucked out of their energy turned into Nega Wisps, dark versions of themselves, becoming unstable with the pain. Soon, Sonic the Hedgehog and Miles "Tails" Prower enter the park, deciding that a park in space built by Eggman is suspicious. After looking around a bit, Sonic notices Eggman's robots capturing the Wisps and decides to rescue the aliens from the evil machines. One of the rescued, a Wisp named Yacker, tries to communicate with Sonic, but it doesn't work because they speak different languages. Tails uses his machines and scientific genius to create a special translator that allows the heroes to speak with Yacker. The Wisp tells them about the outrage in Eggman's park and Sonic goes on a trip to the planets shutting down all the generators and rescuing Wisps. In the end, Sonic shuts down all the generators and fights Eggman in a final battle, allowing Tails to evacuate from the park. Sonic won and Eggman was blown out into outer space, but Sonic himself was unable to escape the Hyper-go-on energy tearing out of the park. However, Sonic is rescued from certain death by Yacker and the other Wisps who then transports Sonic to solid ground. Sonic and Tails thank Yacker and are preparing to say goodbye when Nega-Mother Wisp, the mother of all the Wisps, defiled by Eggman's machines, appears.

In the end, The Resistance manages to rescue Sonic from captivity and he joins them. Working together, Sonic and Rookie destroy Eggman's factory in the desert and work well together. Soon, Tails joins The Resistance as well, along with Classic Sonic, who has come from another dimension to help fight the villains. In an attempt to storm Metropolis City, Sonic encounters Infinite in combat, but the villain uses the power of the Phantom Ruby to open a portal to a Null Space, which pulls Sonic in.

Using Double Boost, the heroes manage to escape and together with The Resistance, they push Eggman to his final base. Working together, Sonic and Rookie defeat Infinite and destroy Eggman's base, but the evil doctor still hasn't given up.

Following the voice's instructions, Sonic begins his journey to Kronos Island, where he encounters Sage, an artificial intelligence created by Dr. Eggman (who also happens to be trapped in Cyberspace) to take over a Cyberspace built by Ancients, a civilization that lived on the planet before the echidnas and inhabited the Starfall Islands. Sage pits the Titans against Sonic, and Sonic is forced to flee from them. After finding all 7 Chaos Emeralds, Sonic takes the form of Super Sonic several times and faces off against the Titans in battles. After defeating all the Titans, Sonic finds himself consumed by the Cybercorruption caused by his attempt to save his friends, but Amy, Knuckles and Tails are saved. The friends manage to save Sonic from Cybercorruption, but it turns out that all along the mysterious voice belonged to an ancient galactic evil sealed by the Ancients in Cyberspace, and by defeating the Titans, Sonic has released this evil into the world. Sonic and Eggman have to team up to find the Chaos Emeralds on Ouranos Island, so Sonic and Sage scour the entire island. Finally, having collected all the Chaos Emeralds with Eggman and Sage's help, Super Sonic faces off against the final Titan (namely Supreme), in which the evil entity has been sealed. Super Sonic defeats Supreme, but the evil entity moves into the Moon and uses it as it's temporary body. Sage takes control of Supreme and joins Super Sonic in attacking the Moon.
