Bruins lose Bergeron, fall 3-1 to Blackhawks in Game 5 of Stanley Cup finals
CHICAGO - Patrice Bergeron left the arena in an ambulance. The Bruins headed home on the brink of elimination.
Game 5 of the Stanley Cup finals didn't go according to plan for Boston, with Patrick Kane scoring two goals to lift the Chicago Blackhawks to a 3-1 victory and 3-2 series lead on Saturday night.
The Bruins must win at home on Monday night to force a seventh game and keep their hopes alive for a second championship in three years.
"We're going to fight," David Krejci said. "We're going to fight with everything we have and force Game 7."
It would help if they had Bergeron. But their top forward's status is in question after he was taken to a hospital in an ambulance with an undisclosed injury.
That happened after he skated gingerly off the ice after playing just two shifts in the second period, and coach Claude Julien didn't say much about it afterward.
He would not reveal how it happened or any other details. He did say Bergeron "may be in the next game," but brushed aside further questions.
"Guys, I'm not going there, so anything else but injury here," Julien said. "I'll update you when I have an update. There's nothing more. We can ask a million questions. I don't have any more information than probably you guys do right now."
The Bruins don't have much more time, either.
What they do have is a history of fighting back when they're close to being knocked out.
"We've been down this road before," Krejci said. "In past years, we've been missing some key players and other players that (were) at the top. This is the time of the year when other guys are going to step up and you know it's do-or-die for us."
They were in several tough spots in 2011, only to keep rallying on the way to the championship.
They opened the playoffs that year with back-to-back losses to Montreal but won that series in seven games. In the Stanley Cup finals, they trailed 2-0 and 3-2 before rallying to beat Vancouver for their sixth title.
This year, they nearly got knocked off in the first round after jumping out to a 3-1 series lead against Toronto. They dropped the next two games and were down three in the third period in Game 7 before rallying to win that series, and their resolve is being tested again by the Blackhawks.
"We've been there before and done well in that situation," Julien said. "Right now, our goal is to create a Game 7. And to create a Game 7, we've got to win a Game 6. We've been good at home, and we need to be good at home the next game. It's as simple as that. There's no panic. You're not going to push us away that easy."
The problem is the Bruins are facing a team that dominated like no other this season, getting off to a record start on the way to finishing with the most points in the NHL.
The Bruins got a solid performance in goal from Tuukka Rask, who had 29 saves coming off a 6-5 overtime loss, but Chicago dictated the tempo, particularly in the second period.
That changed down the stretch, even without Bergeron on the ice.
"It's kind of sad that you had to lose a guy like that to wake the team up and start battling out there," Rask said. "You're in the finals, you play 20 minutes and that's not going to be good enough to get you a hockey game. We have to realize that. Now we're going to have some new bodies, some new lines and everybody needs to put 110 per cent in and leave their hearts on the ice."
The Bruins looked like they might be building some momentum when Zdeno Chara fired a bullet from the left circle past Corey Crawford's glove to cut the deficit to one early in the third.
They nearly tied it with 2:20 left, only to have Crawford stop Jaromir Jagr after the puck careened around in front of the net, and the Blackhawks hung on from there.
Now, the Bruins are simply trying to hang on, period.
"We've been through it before, but it doesn't help to think about what happened in the past," Rask said. "We have to live in the moment. We have to be ready on Monday, get the first win. And Game 7, if that happens, it's going to be up for grabs."

"Lively voices tell gripping plot"
Recommended for the reading by Michael Beck, who applies a seemingly endless variety of voices to characters in these intentionally-shocking tales of cold-blooded acts and even more frigidly sanguine lawyers. Grisham has a keen eye for what people do; and chooses not to often describe how they feel or what they themselves believe motivates them. "Irrelevant!" his storytelling seems to shout. If you can't parse it out from actions, you're not ready for Grisham. Most of us are ready.
Shocking events told in a style that's matter-of-fact, making them somehow more shocking.
I don't have as many "voices" in my head as Beck has in this throat. Great fun.

After two successful movie releases in two years, it's time to take the next step. Antti and Northlight Pictures will begin filming for a two- year project pushing Antti even further to backcountry. It's time to step it up. Antti Autti has been on the vanguard for the rise of online films. On his own website Anttisworld.com the Finn has published two blockbuster films, Antiout and Relate To It. They have led Antti deep into the world of backcountry riding. And now he goes even deeper. After mastering the pipe scene, Antti decided to do things his own way. He replaced pipes with powder and lifts with snowshoes and is now living his dream. From a flat, cold Finland it's a long way to make it on the backcountry. Approach & Attack is a two-year project including webisodes and a full movie filmed in 7-9 different and unique locations all over the world. The idea is to connect with local riders and guides to approach the locations from their perspective. Ever wondered what the life of Car Danchi in Japan is like, or how are the locals in Alaska able to hit the steep lines with low budget? Soon you?ll find out. Approach & Attack is all about having fun with your snowboard. It's about showing the snowboarding world that riding the mountains is much more than just the biggest lines and jumps. It?s about making the best out of every turn and every hill. All you have to do is attack & approach. Attack & Approach is produced by Anttisworld.com and Northlight Pictures.

Mental FlossCertain movie scenes outlast the test of time.
While most of these iconic scenes required lots of planning and preparations, others sprung up spontaneously during, or even after, production.
You'll be surprised to find that classic scenes from 'Casablanca' and 'Indiana Jones' were spur of the moment filming decisions.

My princess had her first day of pre-k today. Looks like she enjoyed it. Now I gotta get a board so I can start hanging up and collecting all the cool stuff she's going to be creating.

See that little girl there? She'll be 3 next month. Her mother didn't want to spend all of xmas day with her. She had other prorities. Dad did not. Dad's priority was to spend time with family, and of this also he was bereft. So, my ONLY child had all of dad's attention. As it should be. Merry Xmas Layla. I love you. One day I'll get to explain this all to you.
Anytime Layla hears music she wants to dance. She'll say 'daddy dance' and we hold hands and she'll jump up and down. Today at BWW she was content to do it on her own.
After changing into jammies last night, Layla comes up on the couch with me and says 'daddy I wanna snug you', and sits right next to me. Then, she says we need a blanket, and I tell her to go get it. She gets up and grabs the blanket at the end of the couch and proceeds to cover us up. Tells me she 'wuvs' me and gives me a kiss, and lays her head down on me as we watch tv. It's moments like these I will never forget, but I'm still writing them down, just in case.
Playing around at day care and she took a tumble into a toy and sliced her forehead open. 3 stitches. She took them like a champ. Daddy rushed out of work to go get her and bring her to the ER. Almost the entire time up until the stitches she was chatty with everyone and playing around like nothing was wrong. Afterward just the same. Relaxing now and keeping her on her pain meds.
This was Layla's first 'real' Easter where she had an idea of what was going on. We didn't do any egg coloring this year since she has a habit of throwing/dropping things, so we figure that'll be next year. We did some egg hunting in which she had a lot of fun, so I'm guessing next year we'll have to go to a real egg hunt. It was a fun Sunday where she basically was in pj's all day eating treats and playing (which is pretty much every stay at home day!). So, enjoy a few pics. These are auto-awesomed by Google.
Today is my baby girl's 2nd birthday. Yesterday we went to Chuck E Cheese and gorged on bad pizza and games while we followed her big brother around (she loves her bubby Dylan). Today we're opening presents (lots of culuhing stuff lol) and having a great day. If someone had told me 20yrs ago I'd enjoy this so much I'd of had 3 kids by now. At my age, I'm thankful to have one!

Holistic health (or holistic medicine) is a diverse field of alternative medicine in which the "whole person" is focused on, not just the malady itself.
The holistic concept in medical practice, which is distinct from the concept in the alternative medicine, upholds that all aspects of people's needs including psychological, physical and social should be taken into account and seen as a whole. A 2007 study said the concept was alive and well in general medicine in Sweden.
Holistic education is a philosophy of education based on the premise that each person finds identity, meaning, and purpose in life through connections to the community, to the natural world, and to humanitarian values such as compassion and peace. Holistic education aims to call forth from people an intrinsic reverence for life and a passionate love of learning. This is the definition given by Ron Miller, founder of the journal Holistic Education Review (now entitled Encounter: Education for Meaning and Social Justice). The term holistic education is often used to refer to the more democratic and humanistic types of alternative education. Robin Ann Martin (2003) describes this further by stating, "At its most general level, what distinguishes holistic education from other forms of education are its goals, its attention to experiential learning, and the significance that it places on relationships and primary human values within the learning environment."
The concept of holism refers to the idea that all the properties of a given system in any field of study cannot be determined or explained by the sum of its component parts. Instead, the system as a whole determines how its parts behave. A holistic way of thinking tries to encompass and integrate multiple layers of meaning and experience rather than defining human possibilities narrowly.
Holism in science, or Holistic science, is an approach to research that emphasizes the study of complex systems. This practice is in contrast to a purely analytic tradition (sometimes called reductionism) which aims to gain understanding of systems by dividing them into smaller composing elements and gaining understanding of the system through understanding their elemental properties. The holism-reductionism dichotomy is often evident in conflicting interpretations of experimental findings and in setting priorities for future research.

In a system of plurally recirculating a set of document sheets for precollated copying wherein the document sheets are repeatedly individually fed seriatim from the bottom of an overlying stack thereof for copying with registration and returned to the top of the stack for restacking in a tray having a support surface, a rear guide and two edge guides, an improvement is disclosed that includes a straight ramp attached to one of the edge guides so that document sheets returned to the support surface will lie flat against the edge guide and thereby provide a positive registration position along the junction between the ramp and the rear guide thereby reducing the possibility of mis-registration due to bending of the document sheets during feeding and recirculation.
1. In a recirculating document handling apparatus for repeatedly recirculating a set of document sheets for precollation copying, wherein the document sheets are repeatedly individually fed seriatim from the bottom of a stack thereof for copying in a precise registration position on two axis of a copier platen, in the direction of document movement and laterally thereof, and returned to the top of the stack supported by a support surface, and restacked between two elongated side guides and abut a rear guide connected to said support surface, said side guides and said rear guide including cutaway portions to allow the escape of air from an air knife during said restacking of said document sheets, said side guides being laterally spaced by a greater distance than the lateral dimension of said document sheets to allow unrestricted restacking therebetween with variations in document dimensions, and one of side guides being stationarily aligned with said lateral registration position on said platen but spaced therefrom, the improvement of automatic edge registration of said document sheets on said support surface comprising:
ramp means attached to at least one of said elongated side guides and said support surface, said ramp means including an inclined straight surface portion such that it forms an acute angle with respect to said at least one of said elongated side guides and said support surface and adapted to allow said document sheets being returned to said support surface to lie flat against said inclined straight surface portion so as to provide a positive registration position along the junction between said ramp means and said rear guide thereby reducing the possibility of mis-registration due to bending of the documents during feeding and recirculation.
2. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein said support surface includes an inclined straight ramp means that is positioned on said support surface and removed from the other of said elongated side guides.
3. The apparatus of claim 2, wherein said other of said elongated side guides is substantially less in length than said one of said elongated side guides in order to allow easy insertion and removal of said document sheets from said support surface.
4. The apparatus of claim 3, including a feed belt means having an endless raised ridge along the center thereof for corrugating document sheets as they are fed by said feed belt means.
5. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein said ramp means and said one of said elongated guides are integrally formed.
6. In a recirculating document handling apparatus for repeatedly recirculating a set of document sheets from precollation copying, wherein the document sheets are repeatedly individually fed seriatim from the bottom of a stack thereof for copying a precise registration position on two axis of a copier platen, in the direction of document movement and laterally thereof, and returned to the top of the stack supported by a support surface, and restacked between two elongated side guides and abut a rear guide connected to said support surface, said rear guide including cutaway portions to allow the escape of air from an air knife during said restacking of said document sheets, the improvement of automatic edge registration of said document sheets on said support surface, comprising:
ramp means attached to at least one of said elongated side guides and extending over a major portion of the length of said at least one of said elongated side guides, said ramp means including an inclined straight surface portion that forms an acute angle with respect to said at least one of said elongated side guides and said support surface and adapted to allow said document sheets being returned to said support surface to lie flat against said inclined straight surface portion so as to provide a positive registration position along the junction between said ramp means and said rear guide thereby reducing the possibility of mis-registration due to bending of the documents during feeding and recirculation.
7. The apparatus of claim 6, wherein said support surface includes a portion inclined thereto, and extending over a major portion of the length of said support surface.
The present invention relates to a document handling system and more particularly relates to an apparatus that automatically registers documents in a tray against a rear and a side registration surface of the tray. This apparatus is particularly suited for a recirculatory document (precollation copying) system in which documents are fed from the bottom of a stack.
It has become desirable to provide for automatic and accurate feeding and registration of individual original document sheets being copied, in order to utilize the higher speed copying capabilities of new copiers. However, one of the most important, and difficult to achieve, requirements for automatic handling is the accurate and reliable, but safe, registration of the original document at the proper position for copying. Conventionally, the document is desirably automatically either center registered or corner registered (depending on the copier) by the document handler at a pre-set registration position relative to the copier platen, with two orthogonal edges of the document aligned with two registration lines of the copier platen, i.e. with the original document aligned with the copier optics and copy sheet registration system. This registration accuracy is desirably consistently within less than 1 millimeter. If the document is not properly registered, then undesirable dark borders and/or edge shadow images may appear on the ensueing copy, or information near an edge of the document may be lost, i.e. not copied onto the copy sheets.
Document handling system in the past have been equipped with various document transports to move the original document sheets over the copier platen and into and out of registration. It is known in the art to register the original document for copying at the appropriate position relative to the transparent copying window in various ways. Typically, the document sheet is registered by driving it against a gate or stop at one edge of the platen. This may comprise projecting aligned fingers, or roller nips, or a single vertical surface, against which an edge of the sheet is driven into abutment. An important function of such registration is to also de-skew the moving original document, i.e., to properly align it with the registration lines as well as to determine and control its registration position.
However, many such known recirculating document handlers drive a document onto the platen and register only the lead or trail edge of the document, without precisely side (laterally) registering the document. Any side registration of the document that occurs in such systems is performed prior to moving the document onto the platen, and is generally merely that provided by the edge side guides of the document tray, which must be set to accommodate the maximum lateral dimensions of the largest document systems, a system for also side registering or positioning the document after it is on the platen is used, i.e., positioning of the original on two axis with respect to the desired imaging position on the platen.
The use of top restacking and bottom feeding document recirculation aggravates the above-discussed problem of accurate registration of the document being fed. For example, with bottom sheet feeders, since the stack height and weight is variable, the normal force on the bottom sheet, (pressing the stack against the bottom sheet and pressing the bottom sheet against the stack tray) is also variable. Further, even if a document sheet is laterally re-registered as it is being restacked, the agitation of the stack by the bottom feeder, particularly if an air sheet separation system is used, may disturb the initial alignment of the sheet as the sheet works its way down from the top of the stack to the bottom before it is fed out again.
Because of variations in the sizes of documents of even the same standard size, it is often not possible to maintain lateral alignment by edge guides or even with edge joggers or tampers. Those sheets in the stack which are undersized can still vary in position by the difference in size between those smaller sheets and the larger sheets in the stack, since the edge guides and/or conventional side joggers are limited in setting by the widest sheets in the stack. Obviously, if edge guides were to be moved in, i.e., set for the smaller sheets, this would not allow flat stacking or settling or unobstructed feeding out of the larger sheets from between these edge guides. Thus, the side guides may have to be set apart by up to a several millimeters greater width than the width of the narrowest sheet in the stack, allowing a corresponding lateral misregistration of such narrower sheets. [As used herein, width or narrowness refers to the sheet dimension transverse its circulative feeding direction, regardless of whether the sheet is fed edgewise (long edge first) or lengthwise (short edge first). The former is more conventional].
Binding of the sheets between edge guides which are too close together, or even forcibly dragging the sheet against one edge guide, can cause wear or damage to the document edges, particularly for the multiple circulations used in precollation copying. Frictional rubbing of documents against only one edge guide, especially over the platen, can also cause skewing of the document as it is being fed. An edge guide on the platen itself has other disadvantages, e.g. potential "show around" printout of a line or shadow on the sides of the copy sheets, or loss of an edge image. Thus, platen edge guides are not generally used, or are withdrawn, in an automatic document feeder. Constant edge tampering or jogging is even worse, because it typically requires repeatedly forceably striking the edges of the stack, usually in only a small and constant area thereof, which can deform or otherwise damage these document edge areas, particularly over the extended time of repeated document recirculations. Older, and/or more brittle documents and extending oversize documents in a set are particularly vulnerable to this damage. In any case, as noted, such edge jogging cannot positively register all of the undersized documents in a set.
In contrast, with the disclosed system herein, each bottom sheet in the stack is individually, and gently, aligned directly against a defined reference lateral edge guide regardless of variations in size of the sheets in the stack, i.e. for a wide range of sheet widths, and without any interference of feeding or larger sheets. The sheets are not aligned by hitting their edges. Rather, they are allowed to fall due to gravity against an inclined registration edge. By using a recirculating document handler (RDH) which minimizes document sheet skewing in the feeding system from the document set stack to the registration position on the platen no other lateral registration system is needed for the entire RDH system. Thus, there is no significant edge guide drag on the documents.
Further details of an exemplary recirculating document handler with which the present invention may be utilized, including relevant teachings of such features as disclosed in FIG. 1 herein, are disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 4,418,905 which is incorporated herein by reference to the extent necessary to practice the present invention.
A preferred specific feature of the present invention is to provide a recirculating document handling apparatus that includes the combination of less rear corner restriction and straight ramp tray configuration that automatically registers documents against a rear registration surface, especially during restack, bends documents in only one direction during feeder acquisition, and feeds documents in a straight line. In combination, this system eliminates side registration over the platen and side stack jogging during restack of documents.
Further features and advantages of the invention will be better understood by reference to the following description, and to the drawings forming a part thereof.
FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional side view of an exemplary recirculating document handler employing the automatic registration system of the present invention.
FIG. 2 is an enlarged partial isometric view of FIG. 1 taken along lines 2--2.
FIG. 3 is an enlarged partial cross-sectional end view of the straight ramp tray configuration in accordance with the present invention.
FIG. 4 is an enlarged partial isometric view of an alternative feed belt usable in the recirculating document handler shown in FIG. 1.
FIG. 5 is an enlarged partial cross-sectional view end view of an alternative embodiment of the straight ramp tray configuration in accordance with the present invention that shows a side guide and ramp member as two separate and individual parts.
The invention will now be described by reference to a preferred embodiment of the present invention.
Referring particularly to FIG. 1, there is illustrated an exemplary automatic sheet separator feeder incorporating the present invention for installation over the exposure platen 3 of a conventional xerographic reproduction machine. This is merely one example of a document handler with which the automatic registration system of the present invention may be combined. The document handler 1 is provided with a document tray 5 adapted for supporting a stacked set of documents 7. A vacuum belt corrugating feeder mechanism 9 is located below the front or forward area of the document tray for acquiring and corrugating the bottom document sheet in the stack and for feeding out that document sheet to take-away roll pair 11 through document guides 13 to a feed-roll pair 15 and under platen roll 17 onto the platen of the copy machine for reproduction. A rectractable registration edge 18 is provided here to register the lead edge of the document fed onto the platen. Following exposure of the document, the edge 18 is retracted by suitable means such as a solenoid and the document is fed off the platen by roll 17 onto guide 19 and feed-roll pair 21 and returned back to the top of the document stack 7 through a feed-roll pair 23. Restacking lateral realignment is provided by an edge guide 62 (see FIG. 2) spaced from an opposing fixed edge guide 64. Inclined surfaces 63 and 65 in conjunction with flat surface 67 help settle incoming (restacking) sheets between the two guides 62 and 64. A resettable edge guide could be provided adjacent side guide 64 if desired in order to adjust tray 60 to handle any size documents if desired.
In the event it is desired to present the opposite side of a document for exposure, the document is fed from the stack 7 through guides 13 until the trail edge passes document diverter 24. Document diverter 24 is then rotated counterclockwise, i.e. into the document sheet path. The document direction is reversed and the document is diverted by diverter 24 through guides 26 and feed-roll pair 28 onto the platen 3.
The document handler 1 is also provided with a sheet separator finger 35, as is well known in the art, to sense and indicate the documents to be fed versus those documents returned to the document handler, i.e. to count each set circulated. Upon removal (feed out) of the last document from beneath sheet separator finger 35, the finger 35 drops through a slot provided in the tray 5 to actuate a suitable sensor indicating that the last document in the set has been removed from the tray. The finger 35 is then automatically rotated in a clockwise direction or otherwise lifted to again come to rest on top of all the documents in the stack 7, for the start of the next circulation of document set 7.
Referring more particularly to FIGS. 1, 2 and 3 and the document sheet separator-feeder 9, disclosed is a feed belt 37 supported for movement on feed belt rolls 39 and 40. Spaced within the run of the belt 37 there is provided a vacuum plenum 41 having openings 43 therein adapted for cooperation with perforations 45 in the belt 37 to provide a vacuum for pulling the bottom document in the document stack onto the belt 37. The plenum 41 is provided with a raised portion 49, beneath the center belt 37 so that upon capture of the bottom document in the stack against belt 37, a center corrugation will be produced in the bottom sheet. This raised portion may project above the plane of the remainder of the belt by approximately 2 millimeters. Thus the document is corrugated into a double valley configuration parallel to the direction in which it is fed. The flat surfaces of the vacuum belt 37 on each side of the raised center of the belt generates a region of stress on the document which varies with the document beam strength. In the unlikely event that more than one document is pulled down into contact with the vacuum feed belt, the beam strength of the second (overlying) document resists this corrugating action. Thus, gaps are opened between the first and second sheets, which gaps extend to the sheet lead edges. These gaps or channels reduce the vacuum pressure levels between these sheets due to porosity in the first (bottom) sheet and provide for entry of the separating air flow from the air knife 12. Air knife 12 is preferably of the type employing a laterally converging stream as disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 4,418,905 which has been incorporated herein by reference.
In operation, the air knife injects air between the bottommost document pulled down against the feed belt and the documents in the stack thereabove to provide an air cushion or bearing between the stack and the bottom document to minimize the force needed for removing the bottom document from the stack. With the use of this air knife in conjunction with the above described bottom sheet corrugator, even if two documents are pulled down toward the belt 37, since the top sheet would not be corrugated, the air knife would inject air into the space between the two documents and force the second document off from the raised belt back toward the document stack.
As can be seen by reference to FIG. 1, the stack tray is designed such that the lead edge of the documents in the stack are spaced a slight distance from the front edge of the tray. Further, the air knife is canted such that the air from knife 12 is discharged at an angle to the plane of the surface of the belt 37. With this disclosed interrelationship between the vacuum feed belt, the lead edge of the stack of documents, and the air knife location and angular orientation, the document feeder is capable of reliably separating and feeding individual document sheets even if the documents have some up-curl.
By suitable valving and controls, it is also desirable to provide a delay between the time the vacuum is applied to pull the document onto the feed belts and the start up of the feed belts, to assure that the bottom document is captured on the belts before belt movement commences and to allow time for the air knife to separate the bottom sheet from any sheets that were pulled down with it.
To further increase the efficiency of the system, the stack tray is provided with a rearward tilt as shown in FIG. 1. When flotation air is provided under the stack or between the first and second sheets, gravity will allow the sheets to settle or float back against rear tray wall 61. Thus, the sheet being removed is pulled uphill while gravity helps hold the remainder of the sheets back, helping to prevent multifeeds, and providing alignment or initial end registration of the stack 7 on one axis (in the feeding direction).
In particular reference to FIG. 2, and in accordance with the present invention improvements for automatically edge registering documents in tray 60 is shown that insures non-skewed feeding of documents in the high performance recirculating document handler 1. The improvements among other things include straight ramps 63 and 65 attached to side wall or guide 62 and raised support surface 68 respectively. The ramps are slightly inclined to an appropriate degree. Also, corner restrictions from a portion of end wall 61 are removed to allow free flow of air in a non-concentric manner which favors the rear corner of the tray. With these features in the tray, documents are aligned along the side of side guide 62 by airflow from air knife 12 only, i.e., no additional lateral registration means is necessary. As shown in FIG. 5, straight ramp 63 and side guide 62 could be separate and individual members attached to each other by conventional means if desired.
Airflow from the air knife 12 automatically moves the documents toward the registration corner 61, 62 for alignment. The straight ramp 63 as shown in FIG. 3 allows the document 7 to lie flat against side guide 62 and provides a positive registration position along the junction between the ramp and the rear guide or wall surface 61 thus reducing the possibility of misregistration due to bending of the documents if curved ramps were used. With curved rails, document registration varies depending upon the stiffness of the document. Additional airflow can be made available if required by removing material 69 from the rear portion of side guide 62 as shown. Raised support surface 68 together with slanted ramp 65 and lower support surface 67 serve to force documents into registration corner junction 61, 62 and against side guide 62 and slanted ramp 63, and thereby provide a further position influence on document lateral registration in a straight line along side guide 62.
With the lateral and side registration system disclosed herein, no separate lateral registration means is required. That is, with a low skew document feeder, as disclosed herein, no lateral re-registration is required over the platen or anywhere else in the entire document recirculation system.
As an alternative, a vacuum plenum and feed belt configuration shown as 42 and 38 respectively in FIG. 4 could be employed as the vacuum belt corrugation feeder mechanism 9 if desired to provide corrugation in documents 7 as they are fed. Belt 38 and vacuum plenum 42 have holes therein that facilitate the attachment of documents to the belt. A centerline raised surface or ridge is positioned on belt 38 in order for corrugation of the documents to be accomplished.
It should now be apparent that a recirculating document handler has been disclosed having an airflow assisted document restack tray which includes bottom, side and rear confining surfaces and wherein the bottom surface comprises a substantially horizontal surface spaced between two inclined surfaces at least one of which abuts a side surface to which the documents are to be registered and wherein the rear surface comprises a rear dam which defines an airflow exit path that enhances a corner registration of the documents.
While the recirculative document sheet lateral edge registration and feeding system disclosed herein is preferred, it will be appreciated that various other alternatives, modifications, variations or improvements thereon may be made by those skilled in the art, and the following claims are intended to encompass all of those falling within the true spirit and scope of the invention.

Doug's Diggings: 'Virus' takes on new meaning in tech world
I got a virus last week - but two aspirins and a night's rest wouldn't solve this "illness." No, this illness didn't infect my body - it infected my computer!
I'm somebody who is always pretty careful about what gets clicked on a computer - I don't want to invite a virus into the system. I figured I was not a likely candidate to get a computer virus since I work with computers much of the day, every day - my guard is always up.

El Veranillo de San Miguel- El Playazo
Although officially we are now in autumn the weather is still sunny and warm with the temperature reaching 30c and the fair weather set to continue.
Throughout the summer nearly every day we have gone to our village beach at Las Negras to swim and relax for a few hours but today we ventured to El Playazo de Rodalquilar ten minutes drive down the coast.
A light Levante breeze was blowing which tempted this kite surfer on to the water.
Even though it is Sunday the beach was not crowded.
Not only humans enjoy the beach. This little dog spent all his time in this rock pool fascinated by the marine life in it.
The light and colours of the sea were beautiful so we hope you like the photos.

Give Grand Marais the Bird
A fake seagull perched on a billboard outside the town of Grand Marais, Minnesota recently went missing. Residents suspect it was stolen, and they want it back. So the town has organized a "give us the bird" campaign, in which they're offering a free vacation in Grand Marais in return for information leading to the safe return of the seagull. The best story wins. A strict adherence to the truth, in this case, would seem to be irrelevant. [upi.com]

I love to get out and explore the more wild areas surrounding wherever I live, but I sometimes overlook the good stuff that's really close...
January 19, 2015
Did a short hike yesterday up at Mt. Laguna. It was only about three miles in total, but the little man walked all but probably a half-mile of that all on his own two feet. This is in part because he decided that he really doesn't like being carried in the backpack carrier...
December 23, 2014
Yesterday I had an epic run. I missed last week's 8.5 mile after work run, so it was good to get out on a sunny day here in the Pacific Northwest and run through some trees..
December 07, 2014
After quite a few failed attempts, we finally found a great road to ride our bikes out towing hauling our 15 month-old in his own private chariot...
December 06, 2014
With the new "Wild" movie coming out (for better or worse), I took a look back at our Pacific Crest Trail adventure.
December 01, 2014
We moved last week, so the days of my nice, easy walks to and from work are now over. It's a bummer, but maybe there's a bright side.
November 29, 2014
Another failed attempt at riding some backroads with a child in tow.
November 11, 2014
Zoie, our orange and somewhat spunky cat looked at me with disdain as I slowly rolled over from a deep sleep to turn off my alarm clock...
October 25, 2014
We got off to a bit of a slow start today, so we only did a six mile bike ride, but it was nearly perfect for those six miles! It was a lightly travelled back-road on Mt. Laguna with a good surface, and it had some good climbing involved...
October 18, 2014
Enough with the concrete already. We need dirt, and trees, and hills to ride up and down. And pie. Yes, dirt, trees, hills, and pie! Brilliant!
We started walking north from the Mexican Border. Six months and over 2600 miles later, we emerged several miles into Canada. Along the way, we walked through deserts, dense forests, and spectacular mountains.
Missing the scenery and freedom experienced on the PCT, we set off again to walk. This time, we spent a month hiking through Colorado from Denver to Durango. The scenery was great and the weather was wild!
Early in 2011, we had the privelage of spending three months in Japan. We sampled much of the country, spending time in Nagoya, Tokyo, Osaka, Hakata, and Kagoshima.

Not only did I stay in this hotel for two nights, my wife and I also held our wedding reception here.
Review of hotel and room:
The hotel itself is very nice. It is a classic Sacramento Victorian mansion and retains many of it's original traits. While it feels old (in a charming, elegant way), it is very clean and fairly quiet. The location is great - within walking distance of most of what downtown Sacramento has to offer. The free wireless internet was easy to connect to and worked great. The hotel staff was nice and extremely helpful (which was very much appreciated, especially since I had loads of beer/wine/decorations to move in and around the hotel/ballroom for my wedding on Saturday). I stayed in the Huntington suite Fri and Sat nights. This is the master suite and I must say it is huge! The bathroom is almost the same size as the bedroom, and includes a jacuzzi tub, dual sinks, a huge shower with two shower heads, and a separate room for the toilet. The bed was large and comfortable, and the mini fridge and sink in the bedroom were a nice bonus. Everything about the room was great, and it was spotless. The continental breakfast was basic but adequate. The room price (although discounted because we blocked most of the rooms for the wedding) seemed fair when compared to other downtown hotels.
Review of wedding reception venue:
Overall, the wedding reception experience was good, not great. We booked the Sterling for our wedding reception a year in advance. Within that year, we must have spoken to 3 or 4 Sterling hotel wedding planners, as they continually changed (quit, fired? I do not know). We were originally promised the use of their outdoor patio for our appetizer hour, but then a restaurant moved into the property, and we were told that this was no longer an option. Luckily we were able to use the walk-in cooler of the restaurant to store our wine/beer/champagne the day of the wedding, which was very nice. The ballroom itself is very nice and in great condition. I loved the built in bar which we definitely utilized. The room layout, including dancefloor, DJ booth, cake table, sweetheart table, guest sign-in and gift tables, and buffet tables, along with 12 guest tables worked out perfectly and did not feel too cramped. We had 90 or so guests for reference. The Sterling also had an employee, Steven, help us with anything we needed, from moving tables to dragging beverages between the walk-in and the ballroom. He was awesome! After getting tossed around and originally feeling like the day would be a disaster, the Sterling (with the help of our caterer, florist and DJ) really made the event come together. I really appreciate everything they did to make our wedding reception unforgettable!

33 year old man | Chicago, IL, USA | Seeking women 24-32 within 15 miles
Active within 24 hours
Brand new to Chicago, fresh from Houston. Great tour guides are welcome
If I'm anything, it's probably not ordinary. I've traveled, had some unbelievable professional experiences, and feel fortunate to be where I am in life.. though not satisfied if that makes sense? The stuff that makes me smile are the little things day to day.. like when you catch someone awkwardly exiting the moving sidewalk at the airport.. classic. I'm proud of my athletic achievements, but more so I take pride in how I've transitioned into a second career. The best way to sum up who I'm looking for is someone that can be my best friend, that I'm also attracted to. I have a dry, sarcastic sense of humor so it might be a prerequisite that the person I meet is on board with that.. otherwise they may just think I'm a jerk lol. I think that makes it simple. Great to be able to do goofy fun stuff, serious dates and still want to makeout at the end of the day. My social life is pretty typical for a single 30 year old male. I have friends I go out with and I have days that I just want to take my dogs to the park and relax home alone. I think it would be great to meet someone who's driven and ambitious, has the ability to travel and take trips or do the fun stuff on some short notice, doesn't mind laughing even when it seems inappropriate. Easy right?
Camping , Coffee and conversation , Business networking , Dining out , Movies/Videos , Museums and art , Music and concerts , Exploring new areas , Nightclubs/Dancing , Playing sports , Political interests , Travel/Sightseeing , Volunteering , Watching sports

I exercise 3-4 times per week.
I have Dogs
One good and one bad. Guess which one came from the pound
Some other viewpoint
Rice village to eat or drink, Been avoiding the Washington scene.. I may have hit my expiration date on that now that I'm 30. Austin wins out I think. Sorry Houston
Arizona State University, Tempe, AZ
All across the board with music, been on the indy/alt genre recently. Need to watch less tv so I'm skipping that one... I like to cook
I'm definitly a movie guy... is it sad I'm willing to go by myself? Parks are great, but in Houston they are off limits 7 months a year. I'm up for most anything. As long as I'm not stuck inside I'm on board
I'm ashamed to admit I sucked into a trend... Last book I read was Girl with the dragon tattoo

Ben thé teutonic serf
You failed wrong calculs
Pompous l'hypocrite
Thereisnt a official wifi where i stayed some people around had it & o squatted 1 connection
Now i havé enough Time to Watchmen your bs, im not competing, just Wait & see, like a good spouse.
Go &see your priest you havé so much to confess if you want to avoid hell
Btw i cared to buy a boom from katharina hagena,a german writer
Interesting family relations
See im not anti germanitude, except for your teutonic kinds
Mary - this is your jackpot: lol
Sweden 1 x 8 (million inhab.) x (0.5 x 10) = 40 votes
Germany 1 x 82 x (.47 x 10) = 385.4
Netherlands 1 x 16 x (.44 x 10) = 70.4
France 1 x 65 x (.1 x 10) = 65
Greece 1 x 11 x 1 = 11
Ben gett'em by yourself if you are honest enough
Look like that you rather want to serve thé teutonics soup
So investgate if your King gets thé jackpot, try farmsubsidies dot org
What do you call me cafard for, bitch !?!
Pompous l'hypocrite
Thé fact that you willingly showed a biased interprétation of thé eu contributions says it all about your fiel scanner France
You want to induce people into your twisted view nô matter thé means your a vil cafard too
I don't have a Queen, I have a King.
Then show me the money, baby ! lol
France is overrated. You shouldn't have a bigger say in the EU then the Dutch, they do as much for the EU as you, and they are WAY smaller. Just my 2 cts.
They should wwigh voting rights in the EU in relation to the net contribution of member states, that would instantly make everybody try harder.
This could be the formula - every country would get 1 vote which was multiplied with the # of inhabitants and the factor of net contributions (as % of GDP) times 10. If your are a net receiver, the latter would be a constant of 1.
Sweden 1 x 8 (million inhab.) x (0.5 x 10) = 40 votes
Germany 1 x 82 x (.47 x 10) = 385.4
Netherlands 1 x 16 x (.44 x 10) = 70.4
France 1 x 65 x (.1 x 10) = 65
Greece 1 x 11 x 1 = 11
That'd mean states would actually get to have a say in relation to what they pay for the EU. Only fair. And that CAP insanity would be history the next day.
What is your position and understanding on the NET contribution of France to the EU? Would you subscribe to the table below?
Sweden: 0.50 % of GNP,
Germany: 0.47 % GNP,
Netherlands: 0.44 % GNP,
Luxembourg: 0.35 % GNP,
Austria: 0.27 % GNP,
United Kingdom: 0.25 % GNP,
France: 0.1 % GNP
I guess the french net contribution is so low because almost half of the EU budget is CAP and the French suck up most of it. That only shows that i) the EU focuses too much on financing the past not the future and ii) that France is in large swaths still structurally backwards by comparison with the most developed euro countries (UK - Germany - small nordic countries). Only prob for the EU: the French will fight for the CAP insanity as if their life depended on it -> prolongation of the waste of money -> euro malaise continues. Merci!
Pompous l'hypocrite
You arent entitled to talk on my compatriots behaf you are german and its not your few chosen french acquaintances that makes of you a expert of french things & behaviour
You arent better than your avatar of goebels that you hold as a good german if i was behaving like you i foule say its thé normal teutonic habit & that we should take care of our Backs acquis
Teuton & his pompous soul mate
Looks like i am right you pass your Time to stir up s"it on me
Teuton you even dont want to acknpledge your récent history: your diligent troops did that to a german little girl that felt sorry for thé soviet war prisonners that they eliminated like thé last annulais (nô Geneva convention for them)
@ pumpernickel:
Ah, I missed that:D. (I'm sold -let's get outta here... .)
Let me please stir the anti-French bucket a little, show Schadenfreude tongue in cheek, before pulling in my horns again and retire to the civilized part of the Economist:

This is one for simplemind. The only blogger here without an ulterior motive except burning and passionate patriotism for Hellas.
Hélas, some others have such a poor quality of life that even when on vacation, touring their favourite country's camping sites, where they switch off the WiFi at 10pm (only the french would be so dumb) they cannot refrain from boring us with their intellectually challenged output. Hélas, Schade.
Children, children
Why do you still give the Morlocks the time of your day, Tonton? Are you some kind of Masochist? Warum Ihre Perlen vor die Säue werfen? Why give these creeps the satisfaction of your attention? It's a complete waste of time. Why not join la.vyrity and myself on some intelligent blogs here? Cut the Nabelschnur ;-)
"you could even kill little girls who pitied war prisonners & for giving them water"
If I wanted to, I could easily tell you what a miserable … you are to write stuff like that. But I don't. No need to get down to your level. But I do think you have some serious trouble, otherwise you wouldn't permanently loose all "contenance".
@ sherry:
It's not impolite to tell somebody who insults everybody who disagrees with her like in a language that would make every ghetto kid pale to tell her she's – well, impolite. Where I come from thus loosing contenance means - you loose it. That's why I am also not insulting MC back. In my (German) culture such abysmal behaviour as that of our dear (French) MC would be considered intolerable. But to be fair, MC isn't exactly representative of the France I know intimately (family + friends) and like. But you may of course cheer her on when she makes inflationary use of the F-word and similar vocabulary if you so whish. Chacun à son gout, and yours doesn't seem to be particularly refined. Proletarier aller Länder, …. !
They are soft people when you strike them in the heart. You cant argue logically nor emphatically because they are mental and never choose a platform but rather these genome like to play the paranoid schizophrenia victim with no spine. But when the appropriate wooden stick is used to strike them between the chestplates, like vampires, you will conquer like good over the evil. Good work!
Hey Schade,
Regarding apolitica as soon as the PEW surveys on anti-semitism was posted, she beat a hasty restreat. I guess it hit too close to home for comfort, if you know what I mean.
Pompous pumpkick got royally thrashed in the Bagehot thread when he tried his usual clumsy manipulative tricks on some Brit posters (eg: vassals of USA), he is now nursing his wounds.
For Germans, what irks them most is when they can't control anything and the EU is a good example. Drives them nuts they can't shout orders at the Greeks and crack the whip.
Perhaps la.výritý perefers the Wehrmacht Oath.
Being called "anti-Semite" by a Zionist is like being called "dirty Jew" by a Nazi.
It's like receiving the Medal of Honor, awarded for Gallantry and Intrepidity above and beyond the call of Duty.
Thank you sherryberry for this award.

Oakridge, ORUSA 97463
November 25, 2013
I have a new tent I just bought this Summer but also just bought a Sportliner Aliner, a small tent-type trailer. It's perfect for my girls & me with an exterior shower, dinette area that makes into a bed, sink, stove & refrig., hot water. Now I just have to learn to back the darn thing up. Luckily it's lightweight enough that I can move it around.
The coast, near lakes where I can hone my kayak skills. Near bike trails. Near hiking. Just about anywhere dogs are welcome!
@ 3 hrs/200 miles?
Yes, two please...would not consider leaving them at home while I left to enjoy the outdoors. They enjoy hiking & the snow as much as I do.
New to Oregon in May 2010. Still in awe of its beauty. Am single with 2 small dogs & just bought an Aliner Sportliner trailer so am looking forward to exploring areas & meeting new people outside of my small town of Oakridge.
Great women, wonderful locations...Barb & Judy are my heroines...I had so much fun I couldn't miss a trip in 2014! Looking forward to 2015 and beyond.

Craft brewers, distillers and wineries are facing new equipment requirements to meet Metro Vancouver's proposed waste water regulatory bylaw.
Screening systems and settling tanks for a small brewer or winemaker will likely run between $10,000 and $20,000, depending on how much additional plumbing and concrete work is involved, say brewers.
Graham With, brewmaster for Parallel 49 Brewing Co., is in the process of installing an outdoor settling tank to recover yeast at a cost of $5,000. Removing accumulated solids from the brewery's waste water system costs another $6,000 every three months.
"We knew that we would eventually get big enough to pass the threshold for high-volume discharge and require inspections and permits, so we planned for this," he said. "But if you are just making enough beer to supply your walk-up clients and a tasting room, the last thing you want to do is put in a lot of fancy equipment."
Metro is concerned that some fermentation operations are operating with "either minimal or no treatment works" to address low Ph and to remove suspended solids and organic material from waste water, namely yeast and sediment from grain and hops.
Random sampling at breweries has revealed the discharge often exceeds the existing standard. The effluent is straining the capacity of the region's sewage treatment system and contributing to corrosion, according to a report to Metro's utilities committee.
Metro's board will consider the recommendation for a new bylaw and public consultation, likely by the end of this month.
