The present invention relates to a memory unit for the permanent storage of data for controlling an ergometer with respect to the performance supplied by a user depending on time and/or distance.
Known memory units for controlling an ergometer are integrated into the ergometer electronics and only allow different programs to be stored and recalled.
A principal object of the invention is to expand the training possibilities offered by an ergometer controlled by a program. Another object of the present invention is to provide an ergometer programmed to make the training more interesting.
For example, it is possible to store the complete data in the memory unit during the course of the program by providing the memory unit as an independent structural element. In this manner the stored data may be used at another time, even under different conditions and at a different location, to control an ergometer in accordance with the stored data. Furthermore, with a memory unit of this type, it is a simple matter to conduct an exercise session. Accordingly, it is possible to recall the most recent base data as comparison values and to compare the value obtained after exercise with the original values to even obtain new base values.
Another advantage of the memory unit of the present invention is the rapid programming of code memories. If, for example, a plurality of ergometers are provided in an exercise studio, the program required for a given user that has been stored in the memory unit in the first testing exercise, can be stored using a special code in the memories of all of the ergometers, thereby permitting the user to easily use any of the ergometers.
An additional significant advantage of the memory unit according to the present invention is that it can be used with a bicycle computer to store programs that characterize the journey performed with the bicycle. These journeys can then be simulated on an ergometer with the aid of the memory unit. This characteristic is also advantageous for competitive cyclists because they can experience the competition on the track. With the data obtained, the cyclist can utilize the ergometer to enhance the training program to this track in an optimal manner.
The memory unit according to the present invention advantageously includes a plug contact device for easy connection to an ergometer or to a bicycle computer.
In one preferred embodiment, the memory unit plug contact device is a cylindrical plug. If the memory unit also has a corresponding cylindrical shape, then it can be arranged in the plug at a very low cost and yet possess a relatively large memory capacity.
It is advantageous for the memory unit to contain an EEPROM, enabling stored data to be erased without difficulty. Additionally, the memory unit preferably also includes a ROM, a RAM, a pulse generator, and a real-time clock, all of which are connected to a micro-controller, which is also included in the memory unit. The memory unit can then access all data without difficulty, even from a bicycle computer which includes a number of sensors, especially sensors for the rotational speed of the pedals, the selected gear in the transmission, the slope of the travel path in the direction of travel, and for the pulse of the cyclist.
The present invention is described in greater detail below with the aid of an exemplary embodiment illustrated in the drawings.
FIG. 1 is a block circuit diagram of an exemplary embodiment of the memory unit of the present invention in combination with an ergometer;
FIG. 2 is the exemplary embodiment of the memory unit according to FIG. 1, in combination with a bicycle computer, as shown in block circuit diagram; and
FIG. 3 is a perspective view of the memory unit and cylindrical plug.
Referring now to FIG. 1, memory unit 1 is shown as an independent structural unit having a cylindrical plug 2, which can be inserted into a corresponding socket 3, of an ergometer 4. Ergometer 4 is formed in a known manner and therefore has a conventional electronic control (not shown), which contains a microprocessor. The plug connection formed by the plug 2 and the socket 3 thus represents an in series break point between the control of the ergometer 4 and the memory unit 1. The memory unit 1 has a cylindrical shape adapted to the diameter of the plug 2. It can therefore be connected directly to the plug 2 or be partially placed therein. A surrounding cover for the memory unit 1 and the plug 2 provides a shield against static, mechanical and magnetic forces, and also makes the entire unit extremely water-tight.
As shown in FIG. 1, the memory unit 1 includes a micro-controller 5 to which a ROM 6, a RAM 7, an EEPROM 8, a pulse generator 9, and a real time clock 10 are operatively connected. The memory unit 1 is thus in a position to store all data delivered from the ergometer 4 according to the program, and on the basis of the stored data the time and/or distance performance to be accomplished by the user of the ergometer 4 can be provided to the ergometer 4.
The data delivered by a bicycle computer 11 can also be stored in the memory unit 1 and can be delivered to an ergometer on call. This is true even when the bicycle computer 11 contains a micro-controller 12 to which the memory unit 1 is connected. As shown in FIG. 2, in addition to the micro-controller 12, the bicycle computer 11, includes a RAM 13, a display 14, and a battery 15 (preferably of the lithium type), all of which are connected to the micro-controller 12. A pulse sensor 16, an inclination sensor 20 which recognizes the slope of the travel path in the direction, traveled and a pedal rotational speed recognizing sensor 17, are also all connected to the micro-controller 12. The pedal speed sensor or tachometer 17 is connected to a velocity/distance converter 18, which performs the speed and distance calculations. An additional gear ratio sensor 19 which recognizes the selected gear in the transmission is connected to the converter 18 to yield appropriate velocity and distance values.
Although only preferred embodiments are specifically illustrated and described herein, it will be appreciated that many modifications and variations of the present invention are possible in light of the above teachings and within the purview of the appended claims without departing from the spirit and intended scope of the invention.

It was a time when the humans wanted to colonize Rawule or as they said "their moon." Because of this, Toren S'rell, the totalitarian leader of Rawule, was faced with an interplanetary war between his people and the human race, or as he liked to say "the ones who put politics before the preservation of their world." As the conflict raged on, Ellaconna River would rather die as a sociopathic killer than a victim and Seccoro Acea, the federal executioner put in charge of her sentence, was trying to cope with the loss of his wife and one week old child.

As of this writing, our planet has almost as many mobile phone subscribers as inhabitants— about seven billion! China and India, between them, have over two billion subscribers. In the United States there are more subscribers than its 300 million population. While a majority of these subscribers reside in more developed countries, where it is not un- common to own multiple cell phones, there are about one billion people in poor, undeveloped countries who do not yet own a cell phone. Remarkably, it was little more than a decade ago that the cell phone became such an integral part of our lives, so much so that we frequently find ourselves asking: How did we human be- ings ever manage to function before its sudden appearance? Roger Minick's book Cell People is a candid, insightful, often humorous, photographic look at our twenty-four-seven love affair with this ubiquitous, talking, listening, texting, computing, imaging device. When looking at the people in Minick's images, one almost begins to believe that this "thing" at the end of their hands, invariably pressed against an ear, has become a virtual extension of human anatomy.

Being from a four generation old Lawrencian family it has been my great privilege to have the Jayhawk basketball program in my life. Nothing has come close to giving me so much joy and satisfaction. I have even been lucky enough to come from a family that has been closely involved with the program and therefore have had privileges that truly no money could buy. To the point that I do not fear death as I have been luckier than 99.9999% of the world's population and therefore have been given more than any person deserves and what a ride it has been. I have even been lucky enough to attend every final four since 1972. Thank you KU for all the wonderful memories.

Kec Hopes To Plug Into Lower Rates
In a move being contemplated by other Northwest utilities served by Bonneville Power Administration, Kootenai Electric Cooperative Inc. signed a deal with a San Diego power broker Thursday to find cheaper electricity.
The agreement calls for Enova Energy Management Inc. of San Diego to locate new sources of power that could be cheaper than what BPA offers later this year in its new power contract to customer utilities. However, the contract does not commit KEC to purchasing non-BPA power, said Bob Crump, KEC general manager.
A non-regulated subsidiary of San Diego Gas & Electric, Enova will hunt down the best power deal for KEC and share the savings with the cooperative, Crump said.
That its customers are foraging to find cheaper power is nothing new to Bonneville, said Rick Itami, the non-generating public utilities manager.
"We view these types of agreements just as competition to us, and it's something we're seeing happen everyday," Itami said. "We're going to try to retain all of our customers, even if that means we cut special contracts with them."
Greater expenditures to help save Columbia River salmon and mitigate other environmental impacts of the Northwest's vast electrical system have most utilities expecting higher power costs.
Crump said BPA's attempt to "get their house in order" administratively also will raise power costs.
Bonneville is widely expected to offer tiered prices for its power to Northwest utilities, Crump said. The first price tier for the majority of power a utility gets will probably be reasonably priced, Crump said.
But the tiers for the final 10 percent or so of power a utility needs may be too expensive for KEC, he said. That's where Enova will seek cheaper power.
"Our main concern is to provide an alternative for our power needs," Crump said. "We feel that BPA has been a good, reliable power supplier, but it boils down to economics for us."
The agreement doesn't mean KEC will abandon BPA entirely, but Enova already has begun searching for KEC, Crump said. If Enova found a good enough deal, KEC could get all of its power from other sources, he said.
KEC may continue to keep its full requirement contract with Bonneville that runs past 2001. But KEC has the option to take the new BPA contract in October, and would then restructure its mix of power with the new sources Enova will find, Crump said.
The extra incentive for Enova, a new enterprise modeled after a program San Diego Gas & Electric did with the California Public Utilities Commission, is that it keeps half the savings of the power it finds for KEC compared to what it would have paid to Bonneville, Crump said.
"These people know what they're doing," he said. "We thought this incentive arrangement best fit what we were looking for in a power broker."
If Enova finds longer-term power deals for KEC, the utility gets more of the savings each year of the agreement. Under a four-year deal with a new power source, KEC would receive 80 percent of the savings and Enova 20 percent by the fourth year of the contract, Crump said.
The agreement between KEC and Enova has a two-year trial period, Crump said. "Unless the world gets turned upside-down or something, the agreement can continue until one party serves notice."
Will other utilities follow KEC's lead? Crump said the bottom line will do the talking for many.
"I didn't want to be a prognosticator with this, but utilities with full requirement agreements with BPA are going to need to look elsewhere for some of their power," he said.

Cocaine and amphetamine profoundly influence dopaminergic neurotransmission and therefore implicate the dopamine (DA) transporter (DAT). In response to prolonged exposure to these drugs, DAT reduces its capacity for DA transport (Iversen, 2006; Samuvel et al., 2008). In contrast to the DAT inhibitor, cocaine, amphetamine acts as a DAT substrate that flows into cells through the transporter (Volz et al., 2007; Erreger et al., 2008). Thus, cocaine and amphetamine both increase extracellular DA by decreasing its uptake, but they do so by entirely different mechanisms: whereas cocaine blocks DA uptake, amphetamine replaces DA as a substrate, and, in addition, amphetamine induces the release of DA into the synaptic cleft (Iversen, 2006). In striatal slices, as one example, amphetamine causes a gradual rise in extracellular DA that lasts for over 30 min in normal mice, whereas no analogous increase exists in −/− DAT mice (Giros et al., 1996). Although DAT is required for the DA releasing action of amphetamine, it is not needed for the vesicle-depleting action of amphetamine; furthermore, in the absence of amphetamine, cytoplasmic DA is considered to be insufficiently concentrated to reverse DAT, implying that AMPH releases DA from vesicular stores before DA efflux (Jones et al., 1998). In some cases, however, as in dendrodendritic autoinhibition, DAT block abolishes DA efflux in the absence of AMPH (Falkenburger et al., 2001).
Because amphetamine releases DA from terminals in the frontal lobe and limbic system, amphetamine may be used clinically to treat medical conditions such as attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder or narcolepsy (Burnette et al., 1996; Fleckenstein et al., 2007). Therapeutic drugs such as Adderall (dextro-amphetamine) are mixtures of racemic amphetamine and dextro-amphetamine salts. Clinical manifestations associated with the abuse of amphetamine or its precursors or derivatives, such as phenethylamine or methamphetamine, are well documented (Potkin et al., 1979; Romanelli and Smith, 2006; Winslow et al., 2007).
Amphetamine is a homologue of phenethylamine and the parent compound of a wide range of psychoactive derivatives, from the N-methylated methamphetamine (METH) to MDMA (3,4-methylenedioxy-N-methamphetamine), commonly known as ecstasy. Because DAT is the primary target for AMPH, the DAT is most frequently implicated in the reinforcing properties and abuse potential of AMPH (Sulzer et al., 1993; 1995; Seidel et al., 2005). The reward and addiction properties of AMPH apparently correlate with its ability to increase extracellular DA levels by mechanisms as yet only partially understood.
The principal mechanisms proposed for AMPH-induced increases in extracellular DA are the facilitated exchange model (Fischer and Cho, 1979), the DAT efflux channel and reverse transport model (Kahlig et al., 2005) and the vesicular depletion model, which is also called the weak-base model (Sulzer et al., 1993; 1995). Reverse transport depends on membrane depolarization, and thus the results reported here have implications for this model. Here we suggest a mechanism that results from our electrophysiological data and is based on a novel action of S(+)AMPH. S(+)AMPH transport and S(+)AMPH-induced current both depend on extracellular Na+, which also carries part of the current. In our model, hDAT transports S(+)AMPH into the cell where it becomes available to bind hDAT at an internally accessible site. S(+)AMPH binding to the internal site maintains hDAT in an open state long after the removal of external S(+)AMPH. This persistent open state defines a use-dependent 'leak' current, which may be related to the previously described substrate-independent leak (Sonders et al., 1997b), although this is speculative at the present time. The leak in oocytes is present in dopaminergic neurons from Caenorhabditis elegans (Carvelli et al., 2004; 2008), and possibly in dopaminergic neurons from rat (Ingram et al., 2002). Such leaks are a general phenomena in monoamine transporter (DeFelice and Goswami, 2007) and in other transport systems where they are called 'slips' and assigned a natural function in native cells (Nelson et al., 2002). Surprisingly, once hDAT has been exposed to S(+)AMPH, subsequent exposure to DA also results in a persistent leak. In an unclamped presynaptic terminal, the persistent leak would depolarize the presynaptic membrane and increase the likelihood of vesicular fusion and dopamine release.

Programmability is in F5's DNA. Since 2001 when we introduced iControl SOAP to the more recent additions such as iRules and iCall. Even looking at our most recent acquisitions you can see the common theme: an architectural vision based on extensibility and programmability.
BIG-IQ is the foundation for the Intelligent Services Orchestration capabilities within F5 Synthesis. BIG-IQ itself is a platform; it is designed to be extended to provide targeted orchestration and management capabilities across a variety of environments, BIG-IQ centralizes policy life cycle management, enables automation of provisioning capabilities and serves as a central, dynamic licensing server for virtual editions of all services. It's also the mechanism that enables management of the Synthesis High Performance Service Fabric.
You can do a lot of things with BIG-IQ, maybe even more than you thought because you have a choice of how you do those things: you can use the GUI or you can script it via BIG-IQ's REST-based APIs.
It's like Burger King, You Can Have it Your Way
BIG-IQ is enabled with a REST-based API just as is the case with BIG-IP. This means you can use the GUI or the API, or both.
For example, the latest release of BIG-IQ includes UCS backup and restore capabilities for BIG-IP elements. This process can be managed via BIG-IQ or it can be scripted using, well, whatever your favorite scripting language might be. Python, Perl, bash and curl - however you roll when it comes to scripting, it's fair game as long as can talk to a REST-based (HTTPS) interface.
That means you can integrate BIG-IQ management capabilities with other orchestration systems. What that gives you is the ability to manage the entire Synthesis Service Fabric including F5 Software Defined Application Services. You can orchestrate the provisioning process via an external system like Chef or Puppet by simply plugging in the appropriate API calls, or integrate it with OpenStack to manage LBaaS.
The world is getting way more connected. It's not just devices and things and apps, it's also impacting the way in which we automate, orchestrate and ultimately manage the entire data center, from top to bottom, end to end. No single solution can do that on its own, there's no magic rainbow rack you can pick up at Best Buy that'll give you that.
But you can build a best-of-breed solution that will give you that by taking advantage of the increased programmability that's invading every aspect of the data center. BIG-IQ's RESTful APIs are one of the ways in which you can integrate and orchestrate F5 Software Defined Application Services within that best-of-breed environment.

SAN FRANCISCO, CA -- (Marketwired) -- 07/02/14 -- The AllSeen Alliance, the broadest Internet of Everything open-source project, today announced that Microsoft (NASDAQ: MSFT) has joined the group's multi-company effort as a Premier Member to make it easier for a broad range of everyday devices, objects and services to interoperate seamlessly and intelligently.
With the addition of Microsoft, the AllSeen Alliance now totals 51 members, including heavy hitters in consumer electronics manufacturers, home appliance makers, automotive companies, Internet of Things cloud providers, enterprise technology companies, innovative startups, chipset manufacturers, service providers, retailers and software developers.
The AllSeen Alliance was established in December 2013 to address a major challenge facing the Internet of Things, which according to McKinsey Global Institute has the potential to create an economic impact of $2.7 trillion to $6.2 trillion annually by 2025: Making sure smart connected devices and objects can work together regardless of brand, operating system and other infrastructure considerations.
AllSeen Alliance members are collaborating on a universal software framework, based on AllJoyn open source code, that allows devices to autonomously discover and interact with nearby products regardless of their underlying proprietary technology or communications protocols. With over 1 billion Windows devices in the market across a variety of verticals, AllJoyn will ultimately expand across these segments, creating a truly horizontal ecosystem for the Internet of Everything.
Microsoft joins Haier, LG, Panasonic, Qualcomm Connected Experiences, Inc., Sharp, Silicon Image, Technicolor and TP-Link as Premier Members of the Alliance, in addition to 42 Community Members.
"We're delighted to welcome Microsoft to the AllSeen Alliance," said Liat Ben-Zur, Chairman of the AllSeen Alliance. "No single company can accomplish the level of interoperability required to support the Internet of Everything in everyday, real-life scenarios. Microsoft's strong presence in the home via computers, tablets, phones, gaming platforms and their strength in the consumer, enterprise, education, industrial automotive sectors, uniquely enables them to accelerate the adoption of the AllSeen Alliance's AllJoyn open source code across a very wide swath of products and verticals."
"Microsoft believes that the Internet of Things is not a futuristic notion but is here today in the devices, sensors and cloud infrastructure all around us," said Kevin Dallas, General Manager, Operating Systems Group, Microsoft. "But in order to make the Internet of Things truly successful, there are challenges to be addressed in securely connecting and managing all these devices and interacting with cloud services and machine-generated data. We believe the AllSeen Alliance is a very important effort to collaboratively address these challenges, and we're excited about joining the initiative."
About The AllSeen Alliance
The AllSeen Alliance is a nonprofit open source consortium dedicated to driving the widespread adoption of products, systems and services that support the Internet of Everything with an open, universal development framework that is supported by a vibrant ecosystem and thriving technical community. The Alliance hosts and advances an industry-supported open software connectivity and services framework based on AllJoyn technology accepting contributions from premier members, community members and the open source community. This secure and programmable software connectivity and services framework enables companies and individuals to create interoperable products that can discover, connect and interact directly with other nearby devices, systems and services regardless of transport layer, device type, platform, operating system or brand.

With so much going on in this space you could be forgiven for thinking you were always working with yesterday's technologies. So much change, so quickly. What do you do if you have to build a solution from the ground up that is expected to live in the field for at least 5-10 years? This is the challenge we faced when we looked to refresh our existing 10-year-old custom hardware stack to measure the fullness of trash cans and compactors.
