LAST CHANCE FOR GLORY by Stephen Solomita
First edition, first printing, mint, new/unread in a flawless dust jacket in archival acetate cover, signed by the author.
1994 NY: Penzler
In New York City, on a cold autumn night, Melody Mitchell leaves her Gramercy Park apartment to walk her dog, Roscoe, and discovers the body of a murdered woman in the back of a parked car. Several months later, a retarded homeless man, Billy Sowell, pleads guilty to the crime and waives his right to an appeal. Two years pass before flamboyant criminal lawyer Maxwell Steinberg takes up the case. Determined to free Sowell, Max hires young Marty Blake, a private eye coming off a year's suspension for conducting an illegal surveillance. Acting on a whim, Blake decides to locate the now-retired cop in charge of the original investigation, Sergeant Bill Kosinski. Together these two misfits, each for his own reasons, set out to prove that Billy Sowell was framed. But Sowell's innocence turns out to be the least of their problems. The deeper they probe, the more dangerous the game becomes, until the only resolution open to Marty Blake is a no-win confrontation with corruption and violence.

Lemaster Carlyle, the president of the country's most prestigious university, and his wife, Julie, the divinity school's deputy dean, are America's most prominent and powerful African American couple. Driving home through a swirling blizzard late one night, the couple skids off the road. Near the sight of their accident they discover a dead body. To her horror, Julia recognizes the body as a prominent academic and one of her former lovers. In the wake of the death, the icy veneer of their town Elm Harbor, a place Julie calls "the heart of whiteness," begins to crack, having devastating consequences for a prominent local family and sending shock waves all the way to the White House.
About the AuthorStephen L. Carter is the William Nelson Cromwell Professor of Law at Yale University, where he has taught since 1982. He is also the author of seven books of nonfiction.
Conversation Starters from ReadingGroupChoices.com
- What does the portrayal of the Carlyle family reveal about the complexities of the African-American community? In what ways does their life represent the historical divide between the entrenched upper class and immigrants and other strivers in American society? What do the beliefs and attitudes Julia grew up with reflect about the specific history and traditions of wealthy, successful blacks? Do they differ from the attitudes of upper-class whites? If so, why do you think this is the case?

In short: Value for money, wet and muddy- NOT a PB course, and not one to missIn full: This race is so much fun! There are haybales to climb, rivers to wade in, ditches to jump in, and tyres to climb over! Definitely not a PB course, and absolutely not a course to wear your good shoes to- in fact I ditched my shoes and socks at the end! Fabulous value for money- at the end you get a T-shirt, medal and goody bag! My second one, definitely not my lastDate of review: March 16, 2005
In short: female, 55, back to running after break of 15years so was personal challenge. So enjoyed it, much better than tackling a straight road event for first timer as the only pressure was to have fun and finish. I did both without a thought of PB,s. Date of review: March 16, 2005
In short: Flat wide course with PB potentialIn full: I thought the course would be dull, being at silverstone, but it was ok and the track was a good surface with pleanty of space to avoid crowding.Date of review: March 16, 2005
In short: Blitzed my time predictions and had a wonderful time. Flat course, fantastic scenery for anybody with any interest in motor racing - all in all an historic venue!Date of review: March 16, 2005
In short: The best and hardest race I've ever doneIn full: This was my first Grizzly. Having marshalled last year in the wind & rain and watched everyone still appearing to enjoy themselves (how?!) I needed to have my own experience! Wow, I'm not sure that anything can really prepare you for how tough this is. So many changes of terrain from beach to bog, climbs and cliff-tops. The challenge, camaraderie, marshals, wine gums … made the whole experience the best I've had in my short(ish) running career. Can't wait to pick up the 2006 entry form at the Seaton half!Date of review: March 16, 2005
In short: Tough but enjoyable. Park and Ride a good idea.Date of review: March 16, 2005
In short: A really good race. I was worried that the racing track would be boring but it wasn't at all. It's great to be in a completely traffic free route, and there's plenty of space for all runners, unlike some races in London. I highly recommend this race Date of review: March 16, 2005
In short: Very, very good!In full: Well organised from start to finish. Nice to get a finishing pack without the usual pile of leaflets that I don't want! Very good day out.Date of review: March 16, 2005
In short: Tough but rewarding. The hills were difficult to pass as were the many pubs on route.Date of review: March 16, 2005
In short: great run away from roadsDate of review: March 16, 2005
In short: great organisation and beautiful scenery all around you makes this race top notchDate of review: March 16, 2005
In short: A bit drier than normal this year, it does make a difference if the weather is niceDate of review: March 16, 2005
In short: An enjoyable day outIn full: Very well organised - as expected. Would like to have seen/heard more spectators out on the course, although the music/commentaryhelped.May do it again next year, but not the atmosphere ofa city/town centre half.Date of review: March 16, 2005
In short: Well organised fast race in ideal conditionsIn full: Took 6 minutes off of PB so well chuffed. Good support from Marshalls and crowd around route. Only complaint, where was the start line?Date of review: March 16, 2005
In short: If you like a challenge then this one's for you!Date of review: March 16, 2005
In short: My first half-marathon - an extremely enjoyable race.Date of review: March 16, 2005
In short: Grossly expensive and bad value for money. Some aspects of this race are stuck in a time-warp. The toilet facilities are hopelessly inadequate. The drink stations are poorly manned and not big enough to cater for the number of runners using them.In full: Brentwood Rotary have only recently got aSEAA permit for this race. This forced them to improve the organisation of the run, and to provide extra facilities. Considering that they are charging £9 (affiliated) to enter this race (and that does not include a t-shirt, which is £9 EXTRA), you would think they would splash out on better facilities. Everything about this race looks like it was done on the cheap - poor toilet facilities, drink stations were badly run - in some cases you had to leave the race route in order to get water - it was not handed to you like in 'proper' races. I feel that the revenue extracted from the runners was the overriding factor here, this is a very expensive race (compared to other half-marathons), and is extremely bad value for money.That said, I cannot fault the organisation and enthusiasm of the many marshalls, who contributed to an enjoyable day for me and over 100 of my fellow club runners. We do resent the 'rip-off' nature of the run, and this may encourage us to do other runs next year, such as the Grizzly in Devon (£11 entry gets you a medal, goody bag and a t-shirt). Professional organisation, too!!Date of review: March 16, 2005
In short: Excellent location, especially for petrol heads. Well organised. Good atmosphereDate of review: March 16, 2005
In short: faster overall than Gt North - need to start faster than normal if you are a slow runnerIn full: I am slow but sure over this distance - there were very few runners like me - but I am encouraged to see if I can start a lot faster in the future -the people who marshalled or just looked on plus the other (faster) runners were so positive and encouraging that I came way determined to work at running better this season.Date of review: March 16, 2005
In short: Great race, well organised, fantastic atmosphereIn full: First time I have run this but to date the best half marathon I have done. Tough first half with the hills but fantastic atmosphere, great organisation - need to arrive early though as car parking is quite limited. Date of review: March 16, 2005

This time it may really be different in Japan.
New Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe's reflationary policies are clearly having an effect. The yen has weakened 14% against the U.S. dollar and the benchmark Nikkei is up 20% since late November. Some yen-sensitive stocks like Toyota Motor 7203.to -2.2220581721541413% Toyota Motor Corp. ADS U.S.: NYSE USD132.45 -3.01 -2.2220581721541413% /Date(1435611723605-0500)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 191133 AFTER HOURS USD132.11 -0.339999999999975 -0.2567006417516044% Volume (Delayed 15m) : 10 P/E Ratio 10.581947174152726 Market Cap 229778336083.367 Dividend Yield N/A Rev. per Employee 731568 More quote details and news » (ticker: 7203.Japan) and Nissan Motor (7201.Japan) are up 35% in just the past nine weeks.
Time for a breather, right? Not so fast. "It doesn't really matter whether you are up 30% or 40% as long as you are the cheapest sector relative to the rest of the world," says Ajay Kapur, strategist for Deutsche Bank in Hong Kong. Japan still dominates the world's cheapest sectors yet boasts strong companies and global brands, he notes. "I don't believe Japanese stocks have gotten ahead of themselves," agrees Nicholas Smith, head of Japan research at CLSA in Tokyo. "Actually, the market has just managed to break through the levels of the day before the earthquake struck two years ago."
The Tokyo market trades at 13 times 2013 estimated earnings, richer than 11 times for China and nine times for Korea. But corporate earnings growth is likely to top 40% this year. Moreover, "you have ROE [return on equity] of 8% to 9% while interest costs are essentially zero," says Kapur. "If you subtract interest cost from ROE you will realize just how attractive the market is," he says.
Another plus: Japan's high operating leverage. That means a pickup in the top line quickly filters down to the bottom line. "When the yen goes from 78 to 95 to a dollar, there is a massive increase in pricing power for Japanese firms," Kapur says. While companies like Sony 6758.to -2.598652550529355% Sony Corp. ADS U.S.: NYSE USD30.36 -0.81 -2.598652550529355% /Date(1435611820690-0500)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 1245920 AFTER HOURS USD30.5087 0.148700000000002 0.4897891963109354% Volume (Delayed 15m) : 4989 P/E Ratio N/A Market Cap 36610613329.9506 Dividend Yield N/A Rev. per Employee 567238 More quote details and news » (6758.Japan) have lagged behind peers like Apple aapl -1.7514792899408285% Apple Inc. U.S.: Nasdaq USD124.53 -2.22 -1.7514792899408285% /Date(1435611603009-0500)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 48414165 AFTER HOURS USD124.8 0.269999999999996 0.21681522524692845% Volume (Delayed 15m) : 747262 P/E Ratio 15.393077873918418 Market Cap 730210525268.555 Dividend Yield 1.6702802537541155% Rev. per Employee 2287920 More quote details and news » (AAPL), Kapur says that in sectors like capital equipment or robotics, the Japanese still dominate. "A weak yen will make them more dominant while boosting competitiveness for others," he argues.
Toyota isn't the only beneficiary. "What's going on is that Bank of Japan is printing money, which weakens the yen but drives up asset prices," says Smith. That's why he sees more big gains—possibly 40% this year—ahead for real estate. His firm also favors banks and stockbrokers.
Kapur likes financials, too, because they track closely with the yen and very closely with the bond yield curve. "Japanese financials are still trading at 0.7 times price-to-book and their ROEs could easily go to 9% soon," he says. The strategist says sectors with high operating leverage like tech hardware, consumer durables, transportation, capital goods and those with high correlation with the yen—like autos—will do well. Sectors that have low correlation with the yen like telecommunications and local retail will lag.
Smith's top three picks for Japan this year are banking giant Sumitomo Mitsui Financial 8316.to -2.7777777777777777% Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group Inc. ADS U.S.: NYSE USD8.75 -0.25 -2.7777777777777777% /Date(1435611963986-0500)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 1701378 AFTER HOURS USD8.9916 -0.00839999999999996 2.761142857142857% Volume (Delayed 15m) : 17200 P/E Ratio 8.595284872298624 Market Cap 63484487807.7986 Dividend Yield N/A Rev. per Employee 633039 More quote details and news » (8316.Japan), property player Mitsubishi Estate 8802.to -2.728512960436562% Mitsubishi Estate Co.

Japan has languished for so long that there is no shortage of skeptics. "We have seen this reflation movie before," says Robert Rountree, strategist for Eastspring Investments. "Japan didn't get to be the most heavily indebted country by being reticent on spending," he says. "The Japanese market is a value trap," says Philipp Baertschi, strategist for Bank Sarasin. "Japan needs structural reforms like labor-market flexibility as well as a sharper focus on corporate profitability instead of just relying on a weak yen," he says. But a weak yen helps.

From Ellen Kendall
Dear Editor,
This morning I drove to Oddfellows Cemetery on University Drive here in Starkville. I have many family members and dear friends that are buried there. When I turned into the cemetery, I was shocked and deeply hurt to see five college students walking dogs there. The dogs were digging up some of the graves and relieving themselves on tombstones and graves. I stopped these students and asked why they were walking dogs in the cemetery and allowing them to desecrate graves of people who had family members that loved them and don't want their graves to be used as bathrooms for dogs. One boy replied, "The landlord suggested we bring them here because there is no yard where we live."
Well, shame, shame, shame on whoever that landlord might be.

How old was the victim?.......Has our Coroner Mr. Fourcault made a report? Rather more than a little story, I would say.
More space given for a vigil.
Do ALMANAC reporters have more to add? I do believe there is a bit of crime history in the 60's and on in Hillsborough...
Quite a place for us that are really from the Bay Area and remember.

Murder seems to play little importance compared to trees on the Peninsula.
What has transpired since the murder?
WHAT coroner did the autopsy?
It is a criminal act..........VERY weird.

I wonder how many reviewers of the Volt have had considerable experience with other makes of hybrids?
Would their reviews be significantly different from the others?
I am interested in the technology, but the purchase price is troubling to me.

Homework help is overwhelming for some parents
Helping with homework is too much for some moms and dads, but others say after-school worksheets will help kids in the long run.
The Christian Science Monitor/Tony Avelar
SPRINGTOWN, Texas
The words slip off the tongue of the dad who triages a math assignment from his corner office or the mother who darts home from work to review dozens of spelling words: Stop the homework insanity!
I've uttered those words myself, often late at night after my daughter is melting down from hours of math problems on top of essays and chapter outlines. Ask almost any parent, and they will tell you that the volume of homework that fills their kid's agenda is overwhelming.
To rebel, books and websites have been dedicated to the Stop Homework movement, urging letter writing campaigns and teacher confrontation. Last week, I read about a woman who bragged that her grade school daughter had never done a lick of homework. Each year, the mom sits down with the teacher and principal and explains that her daughter will pay attention, get stellar grades and perform well on tests but she will not do homework. She tells the school they can alert her if intervention is required. Somehow, this has worked.
Yet I'm wondering if we're taking the wrong approach. Is the homework insanity we complain about as working parents, the key to preparing our kids for the workplace of the future?
One father I know convincingly argues that homework, even volumes, is critical preparation for career success. "It's not realistic for us to raise kids to think they're going to work 9 to 5, leave and they're done," he said. "These kids are going to need to be well prepared to handle all the meetings and projects and emails that come at them in the workplace."
Clearly, there are new rules we play by in the workplace today. If you want a decent job that will lead to a decent life, you have to work harder and smarter. Workplace experts say the next generation of workers will need to be innovators, problem solvers, open-minded risk-takers with the ability to learn new things, adapt to new work situations and maintain high productivity.
"The onus will be on workers to structure their time," said Lynn Karoly, a senior economist with RAND Corp. who has studied the future workforce. From her own kids' homework experience, Karoly said she's seen a shift, with teachers giving short and long-term assignments, team projects and verbal presentations. "That's indicative of the way students are expected to learn and the skills they will need in the workforce."
Tell that to Debbie Regent, a mother of two girls, 14 and 10, who says homework stress is ruining her life. After a day of work, she arrives home to several hours of homework supervision. "There is a value to reinforcing what you learned that day through homework. There is not value in torturing a kid with five pages of math problems, when they have other classes with homework assignments as well." Regent, a campaign executive with the Jewish National Fund, asserts that homework, much of which is just busywork, not only keeps kids from needed down time, it burdens parents, too.
Today, most working parents juggle multiple responsibilities at work, home, in the community and even as coaches on the soccer field. I suggested to Regent that our kids will be better prepared for their juggling act. "You could say we're trying to prepare them for a society where everyone is having heart attacks or is on some kind of drug for stress. If you call the real world a stressful, frustrating place, then I guess there's a point to be had there."
Cristy Leon-Rivero, vice president of marketing and human resources at Miami-based Navarro Discount Pharmacy, says that homework teaches responsibility, work ethic and time management — critical skills for workplace success. Today, with laptops and smartphones, few of us truly leave work behind when we exit the office. "I think it boils down to one word — discipline," said Leon-Rivero, a mother of three. "We're teaching our children from a young age that they have responsibilities and that their actions carry consequences and hard work will lead to results."
Josh Merkin, a Miami public relations professional, offers a different prospective: "Generations coming up don't want to work as hard but they will have to work even harder. If they are better prepared, it's not because of homework."
In fact, Merkin, father of five kids ranging from 13 to 3, asserts that homework, originally intended to reinforce learning, often gets assigned on concepts students aren't being taught and are expected to learn on their own. He believes the unnecessary volume often forces kids to give up sports or other extracurricular activities that teach teamwork and other workplace critical skills.
The new generation of worker provides some perspective. Lindsay Parkinson, 22 and on the job as a nurse since July, said she sees value in having slogged through homework assignments. "I learned early on what happens if you procrastinate." Parkinson said she and many of her friends are entering workplaces that are short-staffed. "There's a lot expected of us and we know how to prioritize. We're prepared for that."
Still, Parkinson says she's not an advocate of volumes of homework, agreeing with Merkin that it needs to be given in moderation.
Meanwhile, countless reports reveal the 20-somethings entering the workplace today put a higher value than other generations on work-life balance. It makes me wonder: Is this pushback? Are the next generation of workers burned out from years of homework insanity and college pressure by the time they land a job?
Alyssa Alonso, a 24-year-old Bay Harbor Islands, Fla., police dispatcher, says she and most of her friends will admit, even if they love their jobs, "life outside of work is way more important." Many have entered professions where they're expected to respond to email or client calls at all hours and take home paperwork. "We have the work ethic and we're prepared to handle it," she said, "but we want to avoid it as much as possible."

The WB (ended 2002)
Michael and Maria (best couple in TV history!):
When she held him in "Independence Day" as he cried.
When he let her see him in "Departure". She got to see he was her everything...ah...
When he stayed on earth for her in "Departure".
The first time he said he loved her, in "Destiny".
Those are the ones that immediately come to mind.
Hmmm...Max and Liz...I liked all of their interactions in "Pilot". After that, there were brief moments I enjoyed but after Season One I didn't like them together anymore...(please, Dreamers, don't throw things at me!)
I think the whole episode of 265 South for Micheal and Maria, the closet in Heat Wave and when he came to her and cried in Independence Day and of course Departure when he lets her in and then stays for her
Max and Liz have like too many to count, but my favorites are in blind date, chant down babylon (or panacea) i don't remember the exact episode when the old guy is in max's body but he still know that he loves liz and in the first season in the last couple of episodes where he has just been tortured and he kisses liz and she sees and then holds him
Max and Liz has got to be the whole conversation between them in 'Destiny' when she tells him they can't be together. It is so tragic and yet just so, so beautiful. I was never much of a dreamer shipper, I always loved Stargazers and Candy more, but in that scene I can honestly say it was then that I fell in love with Roswell and have been ever since.
As for Michael and Maria - When she holds him as he cries in 'Independence Day', the whole way he looks after her after Alex dies, when he lets her see him in 'The Departure' and when he stays for her, and the whole conversation he gives to her in 'the final episode when he tells her it had always been her and he'd always love her. Oh and also the fact he learns to dance for her - so cute and adorable!
And despite it not being on here just thought I'd throw out Isabel's dream after Alex dies for those Stargazers of us out there - I love it so much, but yet it breaks my heart everytime. When she tells him she loves him and he replies 'I think we both know I loved you too' and when she says 'Please don't go' and he just says 'I'm already gone' I just loved the two of them together sooo much, I am still sooo gutted that Isabel didn't realise how she felt about him until it was too late.
Michael&Maria best moments, in ' Independence Day' when he cried in Maria presences; in 'Departure' when he stays for her and the whole moments in 'Heat Wave'.
Max&Liz best moments, my favourite is the conversation in the episode 'Destiny' they have a real moment, 'Blind Date', 'Pilot', 'Heat Wave'...I really don't no for sure their best moments, because all the moments are beautiful...i'm a DREAMER...
I love all the moments mentioned above, but there is one more that I love of Max/Liz!
-In "Ch-Ch-Changes" when Max tries to heal Liz out in the desert, it's hearbreaking when she asks him to stop hurting her.
Liz: Just stop hurting me.
Max: I wasn't trying to.
Liz: No but Max, you do. You always do.
Liz: Why did you sleep with her? Why?
Max: Liz..
Liz: Every single time you mention your son I am reminded of what you did to me. How you were unfaithful to us. How can you not know that?
Max: Liz, please.
Liz: Stay away!
So sad! But at least all ends well!
Made a couples video with one of my MM fav moments!
Well my favorite Michael/Maria moment will be when makes a thoughtful dinner for Maria, Italian herfavorite. And theirconversationabout the fact the reason why she didn't see flashbacks of his past was because he didn't want her to see how he really was and in the end he DID let her see. That episode made me want to cry. The heck that episode made me wanna cry a couple times.
And my favorite Max/Liz moment will be their first kiss

Every morning, we compile the links of the day and dump them here... highlighting the big storyline. Because there's nothing quite as satisfying as a good morning dump. For all of the Red Sox' success in the first half of the season, they know there is plenty of work ahead, starting with a critical stretch against division opponents. The Sox have the most wins in baseball and hold a 21⁄2-game lead in the bunched-up AL East. Their first 10 games after the All-Star break are against the three teams closest to them in the standings, beginning tomorrow with a three-game set against the Yankees at Fenway Park. "It's a big test for us," Dustin Pedroia said. "Any time you're playing in the division you find out where you're at. It's a way to make up ground or lose it, so hopefully we play well and win as many games as we can." Herald: Sox will work on division This is a pretty tough stretch to start the second half of the year. And with the Sox surprising a majority of people, it's important that they come out of this stretch still atop the AL East. Otherwise, you can tune up the "here we go again" articles and the conversation turns into "this team was playing far better than what they are and now they're simply regressing to the mean." This Sox team has the attention of Boston. They're all we have until the NFL starts up. We were bracing ourselves for a long term overhaul of this team but now we're swept up in a pennant race. There's actual excitement about this team! Please, PLEASE don't come out of the gate stumbling.

The hotel is not a four star hotel. A three at best. Very dimly lit room and hallways. Very hard to read or see. Shuttle service was excellent to and from airport. Always on time.
The lounge area was also dark. We ordered food and it was quite expensive. Maybe this is how it is close to the airport. Room was clean but needed some bathroom renovations

This invention relates to scanning systems employing a laser beam; and is particulary useful in connection with scanning systems for reading and/or writing with laser beams in connection with the making of printing plates. For example, one application of the invention would be reading a paste-up representing a page of a newspaper. Another application is the making of printing plates. Similarly, laser masks may be made from which a multiplicity of printing plates may be made.
Scanning systems using laser beams for reading and/or writing are well known. For example, U.S. Pat. No. 4,131,916 to Robert H. Landsman, which issued Dec. 26, 1981, entitled Pneumatically Actuated Image Scanning Reader/Writer, shows a pair of mirrors mounted at opposite ends of a rotating shaft. The shaft is hollow, is mounted on air bearings, and is rotated by air that is fed into the hollow portion of the shaft and is exhausted through inclined portholes in the rotating shaft. The discharge of air through these inclined portholes rotates the shaft. The scanning action of Landsman involved both rotation and translation of the shaft. To effect translation, the said Landsman patent employed a differential air pressure system as a part of the rotating shaft.
In accordance with the present invention, there is also a hollow rotating shaft. Air under pressure is fed into the cavity in the shaft and escapes through one or more turbines to rotate the shaft. To improve the horizontal stability, an annular cavity is provided near each of the opposite ends of the shaft. Contiguous with each such cavity is a porous bronze plate, one face of which is fed with air under pressure from its nearby cavity. The opposite face of the porous bronze plate is substantially contiguous with a flat plate which may be a part of one of said turbines. Thus, the air flow from each cavity is toward the end of the shaft and is parallel to the axis of the shaft. That air flow, at each end of the device, is through the bronze plate and into said flat plate. The air pressure in each cavity is separately controlled, and is adjusted with reference to the air pressure in the other cavity to achieve maximum stability.
FIG. 1 is a side view of the invention.
FIG. 2 is a cross-section of the rotating scanning element and the stationary housing therefor.
FIG. 3 is a detail view of a portion (112) of the housing, a porous bronze plate (124), and the turbine (118) having a flat sidewall (125).
FIG. 4 is a top view of the apparatus for translating the rotating scanning element.
FIG. 5 is a side view of the rotating system with a portion being a cross-sectional view.
FIG. 6 is a cross-sectional view along line 6--6 of FIG. 2.
The present invention is an improvement upon the scanning system of said Landsman U.S. Pat. No. 4,131,916; and the present invention simply provides improved apparatus for rotating the scanning mirrors.
The bearing (100) is supported by the housing (101) which, as will be seen, moves laterally and parallel to the material to be scanned, but does not rotate about the axis (109) of FIG. 2. The shaft (102) rotates with reference to the bearing (100) and the housing (101) around the axis (109). Air under pressure between 70 and 100 pounds per square inch is connected to input (103) and enters annular slot (105) which completely encircles the outer portion of bearing (100). The air under pressure from slot (105) enters annular trough (104) to thus provide an air bearing surface between the rotating shaft (102) and the bearing (100). This air space (106), between bearing (100) and shaft (102), is approximately 0.0008 inches wide. The O rings (108) prevent leaking of the air passing inlet (103) to the annular groove (104). The cap (110) is connected to the housing (101) and has a vent (111) which feeds hole (1110) (FIG. 6) whereby air which flows past ring (107) is vented to the atmosphere. Some air from space (106) also passes ring (107) to space (113) which is at lower pressure, as will be seen, than the pressure in the gap between ring (107) and shaft (102).
Air under pressure from a servo mechanism that controls the air pressure (see part 142 in FIG. 5) enters inlet (114) and then via space (116) to air ports (115) and then through the ports (117) to drive the turbines (118). The turbines (118) rotate the endplates (119) which, in turn, rotate optical housings (120) which respectively carry the mirrors (121) and the lens (122). Both mirrors (121) and both lenses (122) therefore rotate at the same speed as the turbines (118). The air flows through the space (106) between the bearing (100) and shaft (102) and exits the bearing through the gap provided by rings (107) which are of cylindrical shape and are preferably made of a material known as Vespel, manufactured by DuPont. The gaps between the rings (107) and shaft (102) are typically between 0.0001 and 0.0004 inches.
Air under pressure at about 40 pounds per square inch is also fed into the annular groove (123) from which air under pressure flows through the bronze porous plate (124) and applies pressure to the flat inner surface (125) of the turbine (118). An air gap of approximately 0.002 to 0.005 inches is provided between the porous plate (124) and the flat plate which comprises the inner end surface (125) of the tubine (118).
Heretofore, devices with rotary air bearings have been used, not only in connection with scanning devices of the general class involved here, but also in other applications. One problem that has arisen in connection with such air bearings is that there is unwanted lateral movement between the housing and the rotating part. Such unwanted lateral movement is very objectionable in the case of a scanning device of the character involved here because any lateral error in the position of the mirrors (121) will cause an error in the materials being read and/or printed, as the case may be. This lateral movement which causes such error is avoided, by reason of the porous bronze block (124) at both ends of the device. Air under pressure enters the annular cavities (123), both at the right end of the device via feed line (1230) and at the left end of the device via feed line (1231), and passes through the porous bronze plates (124) and applies pressures on the flat surfaces (125) of the turbines (118) (see FIG. 3).
With reference to FIG. 2, the air under pressure to cavity (123) on the left side of the machine is preferably separately regulated from the air pressure entering cavity (123) on the right hand side of the machine, and if this is not done, instability may result. By trial and error, the correct pressures for the two cavities (123) are selected using two pressure regulators (1232) and (1233) (FIG. 2). The two pressures are adjusted to achieve maximum stability.
The end plate (119) is attached to the shaft (102) by threads. The inner surface of shaft (102) is threaded along surface (126) and the outer surface of the ring (127) attached to end plate (119) is threaded. The mating threads between the inner surface of shaft (102) and the outer surface (127), hold the end plate (119) to the shaft (102).
The current-pressure transducer (142) may be Fairchild Series T5100 manufactured by Fairchild Industrial Products Division, 1501 Fairchild Drive, Winston Salem, N.C. (FIG. 5). Preferably this apparatus is catalog number T5120-1, having an input impedance of 2,340 ohms and an input range 1 to 5 milliamperes. This transducer controls the air pressure to inlet (114) and holds that pressure at approximately 40 pounds per square inch as previously explained.
Tapped holes, such as (128), may be placed in the ends of plates (119). Set screws may be inserted (or omitted) in these holes. The size and placement of the set screws may be selected to precisely balance the rotating mechanism dynamically.
FIG. 3 is an exploded view of the details of the manifold (112), the bronze porous plate (124) and the end plate (125) of the turbine (118).
FIG. 6 illustrates certain details of caps (110) (FIG. 2). There are two of these caps (110), one at each end of the rotating apparatus of FIG. 2. While only the details of the left cap (110) are shown in FIG. 6, it is understood that the right hand cap (110) (FIG. 2) has similar details. The cap (110) has a borehole (1100) through which bolt (1101) passes to fasten the cap (110) securely to housing (101).
One desirable feature shown in FIG. 6 is that there are air bleed holes (1110) extending from vent (111) to the abmient atmosphere to thus allow a release of the air under pressure that passed the outermost rings (107) into vent (111).
FIG. 1 shows the supporting mechanism for the apparatus shown in FIG. 2 and also moves the apparatus shown in FIG. 2 laterally for the purpose of providing the lateral component of the scanning motion. The scanning motion obviously has, in addition to the lateral movement, a rotating movement which has already been described. The housing (101) originally explained in connection with FIG. 2 and which is also shown in FIG. 1 is supported by the cradle (130). The cradle (130) is mounted on the pneumo-linear slide (131). This slide (131) is manufactured by Pneumo Precision, Inc., Precision Park, Keene, N.H.; and, together with its supporting rail (132), is an established and well known supporting element. The slide (131) is supported by air pressure from the railing (132) which is also manufactured by said Pneumo Precision, Inc., as aforesaid.
In other words, the stationary rail (132) supports the slide (131), and the support function between (131) and (132) is by means of air pressure. The slide (131), in turn, supports the cradle (130) which, in turn, supports the housing (101).
Running parallel to, and along side of, the supporting element (131), and the rail (132), is a lead screw (133) which is supported by three bearings (134) and which is prevented from unwanted lateral movement by collar (135). The lead screw (133) is rotated by stepping motor (136) which is connected to the lead screw (133) by the coupler (137).
The stepping motor (136) (FIG. 3) may be model M83-62 series, motor/driver, manufactured by Compumotor Corporation, 1310 Ross Street, Petaluma, Calif. This stepping motor (136) has 25,000 steps per revolution, and a preferred speed of approximately 1 revolution per second when driving a 10 pitch lead screw. Using a 10 pitch lead screw (133), the apparatus of FIG. 2 scans approximately 1,000 lines per inch during reading and/or writing. Following the scanning of a complete page, the stepping motor runs in reverse at a speed of approximately 6 revolutions per second in order to return the apparatus of FIG. 2 to its starting position for a new scan.
The preferred speed for the turbine (118) is 6,000 rpm whereby the mirrors rotate at that speed during scanning.
FIG. 4 is a top view of FIG. 1. In FIG. 4, the stepping motor (136) drives the coupler (137) which, in turn, drives the lead screw (133) which cooperates with the lead screw nut (138) (FIG. 1) which is held in fixed relation to the apparatus of FIG. 2 by bracket (139). The lead screw bearings are supported by support blocks (140) and (141). The bracket (139) is firmly attached to the support (131) which is carried by the rail (132) by air pressure as explained heretofore. The apparatus of FIGS. 1 and 4 rests on base (1400).
FIG. 5 is another view of the device of FIG. 2 showing certain additional details. A laser beam (145) is shown entering the left end of the apparatus where it is focused on the material to be read by the lens (122) via the mirror (121). As the mirror rotates about the axis (109) (FIG. 2), the laser beam is reflected to provide scanning. This beam intermittently and periodically passes encoding device (143) which emits one signal pulse for each revolution of the mirror (121). The pulses may be used for counting, synchronizing or the like. The encoding apparatus (143) is supported by bracket (144) from the cradle (130) which is more fully shown and explained in connection with FIG. 1.
The foregoing apparatus, therefore, provides means for both rotating and translating the scanning mirrors (121) to provide a desired scanning operation.

Montville — His team had just won its fourth straight game Friday night, scored 41 points and tied Ledyard for the lead in the Medium Division of the Eastern Connecticut Conference.
And yet Tanner Grove, the coach at Montville High School, commenced with a rather monumental spleen venter in the postgame state of the union, railing about every detail of his team's 41-37 win over Waterford.
"Outside of six running plays," Grove said, alluding to Jeremiah Crowley's six touchdown runs, "I didn't like a thing we did. We didn't do anything right on defense or in the kicking game. That's my fault. I didn't have everyone as locked in this week as maybe they needed to be.
"I think the kids got caught up looking down the road. We had put up a few wins and they overlooked a quality Waterford team. I know as well as the kids that Waterford might not have had the athletic matchups in this game, but we played as poorly as we could."
Notable exception: Crowley. His 27 carries and 346 yards included scoring runs of 16, 79, 1, 14, 8 and 51 yards. The 51-yarder came moments after Crowley took a cleat to the throat and was momentarily gasping for breath on the field. The TD gave Montville a 41-23 lead at the time.
Turns out the Indians (4-2, 2-0) needed it. Waterford (2-4, 1-3) rallied late. Waterford coach Mike Ellis, whose team amassed 413 total yards, was far more satisfied with his team's effort than his counterpart.
"I think when you take a look at years past, Montville expects to beat Waterford and I don't think Montville expects it to be a close game," Ellis said. "I think they thought they should have put us away and we hung in there."
Indeed. Quarterback Seth Hoagland hit Isaiah Jones and Dan Martin with late touchdown passes to pull the Lancers close. Hoagland finished 8-for-17 for 211 yards and three touchdowns, the third of which went to senior Donny Craig earlier in the game.
Waterford fullback Joe Gustafson ran 21 times for 166 yards.
But every time the Lancers got close, they were unable to slow Crowley, who has already eclipsed 1,000 yards for the season.
"He has a low center of gravity and is very patient," Ellis said. "He sits behind blockers and as soon as you close in, he's very good at feeling contact and spinning out of it. And because he stays low to the ground, he remains in a power position. A couple of times we hit him pretty good and he kept going."
Grove: "My most favorite part of him is that he might be the only kid I've met in my career who wants to win as much as I do. A fierce competitor."

Female crashes car into light at York Hill
An unidentified female driver in a silver sedan crashed into a light fixture at York Hill at about noon on Saturday.
Police waved traffic into the open lane as they tended to the female lying on the ground outside of her car.
The driver was heading uphill when her vehicle crossed the middle lane and hit a light pole head-on, according to Miles McQuiggan, a senior who drove down the hill shortly after the accident. Her car ended up on the opposite side of the road at the sharp curve of the hill. The female's status is unknown at this time.
"I was coming down the hill, and there was an SUV stopped in the right lane," McQuiggan said. "I slowed down and switched lanes, at which point I saw the other car facing uphill in the left lane of the downhill side. I quickly cut back to the right lane, and somehow avoided the debris from the light post. She had to be going pretty hard around that curve to uproot the cement base of the light post."
One hour after the incident, two-lane traffic resumed on York Hill with the debris and broken light cleared.
Hamden police and Quinnipiac security moved the car to the parking lot near the bottom of York Hill, according to junior Anthony Messina. Hamden police was unavailable for comment.
