Thunder and Galaxy look to break free from pack
April 20, 2004 - National Football League Europa (NFLE) News Release

The undefeated Berlin Thunder (3-0) could open a two-game lead over the Rhein Fire (2-1) › the leaders of the chasing pack - on Saturday if they can maintain the best start in club history by finding a way to win in Gelsenkirchen, against a Rhein team that has been outstanding on home soil in recent seasons.

The Week 4 action concludes on Sunday as the defending World Bowl champion Frankfurt Galaxy (3-0) visits an Amsterdam Admirals (1-2) side buoyed by last weekend's first win of the season against the Scottish Claymores.

COVER STORY (Continued)
As you would expect, the Berlin Thunder and Frankfurt Galaxy › led by rookie head coaches MIKE JONES and RICK LANTZ - are feeling pretty good about themselves after making perfect starts to the 2004 campaign.
Frankfurt is off to a 3-0 start for the third year in a row, while the Thunder has made the best beginning to a season in club history.
Buoyed by his team┬Æs 28-10 defeat of the Rhein Fire last weekend, Galaxy head coach Jones says: ┬ōOur guys played a wonderful game. We kept our poise and rose to the occasion. But we are a long way from the season being over with. We have to take it step by step and last week┬Æs game against Rhein was just step number three.┬ö
Thunder boss Lantz says of his team: ┬ōOur kids have shown some character and I am proud of them. They are holding themselves accountable and last week was a big win for us because we are now one of two teams with 3-0 records. We are excited about that.┬ö
One game behind the league leaders is a Rhein Fire team that suffered a tough loss in Frankfurt against their biggest rivals last weekend.
Fire head coach PETE KUHARCHEK is keen to see if his players have the mental toughness to bounce back quickly, as he explains: ┬ōIt would have been nice to be sitting on top of the pile at 3-0 but we┬Ære now back in the fight with everybody else. It is a very important game against Berlin this week and it will be a challenge to see how we come back from a loss. We have a good team and we will see how we react to adversity.┬ö
The Amsterdam Admirals are next in the standings with a 1-2 record as they head home to host the league-leading Galaxy on Sunday.
Amsterdam┬Æs 3-0 victory over the Scottish Claymores was not pretty but it pleased head coach BART ANDRUS, who says: ┬ōGetting that win gave me a feeling of relief. Until you win a game you wonder if you are ever going to get a break. It was good to get a win on the road but we have to start scoring some touchdowns. I have every confidence these guys will start scoring the points they are capable of.┬ö
Cologne head coach PETER VAAS will urge his players to remain calm ahead of Saturday┬Æs meeting with the winless Claymores. He explains: ┬ōWe just have to remain patient and not get frustrated. It is frustrating but we cannot allow ourselves to get downhearted. I┬Æm so sick and tired of saying this but we are a good football team that just has not won yet.┬ö
Claymores head coach JACK BICKNELL remains confident his team can get back into the World Bowl race following an 0-3 start, as he reveals: ┬ōThe challenge for us is to win seven straight. It won┬Æt be easy but it can be done.┬ö
Fire heads back to stronghold for Week 4 showdown with Thunder
KEEN to put last week's road loss in Frankfurt behind them, the Rhein Fire will aim to maintain their home dominance over the rest of the NFL Europe League when they play host to the Berlin Thunder at Arena AufSchalke in Gelsenkirchen in Week 4.
In their last 33 games on home soil, the Fire has posted a 27-6 record. With victory over Berlin on Saturday evening, Rhein will guarantee a winning record at home for the eighth season in a row.
Under head coach PETE KUHARCHEK, the Fire has never lost more than one game at home in each of the past three regular seasons. Including two home victories this season over Cologne and Scotland, the Fire has a 14-3 record in their own stadium with Kuharchek as head coach.
The last time the Fire had a losing record at home was in 1996, when they went 2-3 at the Rheinstadion.
Kuharchek says: ┬ōWe have always received great support at home and we feel our fans are the best in the NFL Europe League. They make a lot of noise, make it hard for opposing teams and get our own players fired up and ready to play.
┬ōOur goal this season is to win the World Bowl in front of our own fans on June 12.┬ö
Here is a season-by-season look at the Rhein Fire at home:
Season Record
2004 2-0
2003 4-1
2002 4-1
2001 4-1
2000 5-0
1999 3-2
1998 4-1
1997 3-2
1996 2-3
1995 2-3
Hart stuck needing eight points
SCOTTISH Claymores kicker ROB HART still needs 8 points to become NFL Europe's all-time leading scorer after being held without any points during his team's 3-0 loss to Amsterdam in Week 3.
The English kicker is on 322 career points to rank second all time behind JESUS ANGOY, who scored 329 points for the Barcelona Dragons from 1997-2003.

Future looks bright for 3-0 clubs
WITH three weeks of the 2004 regular season completed, the Frankfurt Galaxy and Berlin Thunder are sitting pretty with 3-0 records.
If the NFL Europe League record book is an accurate indicator, starting a season with three straight wins usually results in a World Bowl berth in June.
Prior to this year, 11 teams have made 3-0 starts to a season and 10 of those clubs have made the most of a strong beginning by going on to reach World Bowl.
Before Frankfurt players start patting each other on the back, they should know that the only team in league history to start a season 3-0 and miss out on a World Bowl berth was the 2002 Galaxy.
But this year's Galaxy team is statistically the best in league history at this stage of the season. Of all the teams to go 3-0 to start a year, the Galaxy has the highest margin of victory (17 points per game), tying the 1999 Barcelona Dragons.
Galaxy head coach MIKE JONES says: ┬ōThe games have all been close in my eyes. Most of the games in this league are closer than they look. We won┬Æt get complacent. Being 3-0 doesn┬Æt mean anything. The game at hand is what is important and we are a long way from this season being over with.┬ö
Here is a look at how teams starting a season 3-0 have fared from 1991-2003:
Year Team Fared
2003 Frankfurt 6-4, won World Bowl › streak to 3-0
2002 Frankfurt 6-4, missed World Bowl › streak to 4-0
2001 Barcelona 8-2, lost World Bowl › streak to 4-0
1999 Barcelona 7-3, lost World Bowl › streak to 3-0
1998 Rhein 7-3, won World Bowl › streak to 6-0
1996 Scotland 7-3, won World Bowl › streak to 3-0
1996 Frankfurt 6-4, lost World Bowl › streak to 4-0
1995 Amsterdam 9-1, lost World Bowl › streak to 7-0
1992 Sacramento 8-2, won World Bowl › streak to 3-0
1991 London 9-1, won World Bowl › streak to 9-0
1991 Barcelona 8-2, lost World Bowl › streak to 4-0
Thunder head coach RICK LANTZ says: ┬ōWe never had any expectations about being 3-0. We just wanted to win the first one, then the one after that and so on. We have a team that is capable of winning each week. It is up to our coaching staff to make sure they are ready and motivated to play.┬ö
In order to maintain their winning start to the season, Berlin must emerge victorious from their road trip to face the Rhein Fire. Berlin has never won on the road at Rhein in the regular season (0-5) but did defeat the Fire at the Rheinstadion in World Bowl X in 2002.
Feeling of d├®j├Ī vu for Vaas as Centurions open season 0-3
PETER VAAS could be excused for having a feeling of d├®j├Ī vu as he sees his high-scoring Cologne Centurions team sitting with an 0-3 record.
For the third straight year Vaas' team has set a record as the highest-scoring 0-3 club in league history.
When Vaas' former Berlin Thunder team lost the first three games of 2002 (before going on to win World Bowl) they set a new mark by scoring 59 points in those three losses. Last season, the Thunder lost their opening three games but posted an even higher points total of 62. Now Vaas' Centurions have scored 66 points in the first three games, but have yet to win.
After leading his team to a 35-31 defeat of the Centurions in Week 3, Berlin Thunder head coach RICK LANTZ said: ┬ōCologne is an explosive football team. They were a little bit too explosive at times for my liking.┬ö
Thunder quarterback ROHAN DAVEY added: ┬ōCologne is the best team we have faced this season and we knew going into the game they would present a real challenge.┬ö
Records of 0-3 teams in first three games of season

NFLEL FACTS:Field position
BERLIN Thunder's opening four possessions against the Cologne Centurions in Week 3 began at the Cologne 40, 20, 47 and 49-yard lines and resulted in three touchdowns. Three big kickoff returns gave the Thunder outstanding field position and the possession beginning at the 20-yard line came following an interception. Berlin capitalised on the strong start to win the game 35-31. In three games this season, the Centurions have given up 475 yards and 2 touchdowns on kickoff returns. They are on pace to concede 1,583 kickoff return yards, which would smash the unwanted league record of 1,199 set by Amsterdam in 2003.

Low-scoring Claymores head to Cologne looking for more points
THE Scottish Claymores will play their third road game in four weeks when they head to Cologne for a meeting of winless teams on Saturday.
And Scotland will go into the important contest knowing they must improve their points production after making the worst start in league history in that category.
With only 17 points in their first three games, the Claymores are the lowest-scoring team in league history through three weeks of a regular season.
Fewest points in first three weeks
17 Scottish Claymores 2004 (0-3)
18 Ohio Glory 1992 (0-3)
22 Sacramento Surge 1991 (1-2)
26 London Monarchs 1997 (1-2)
28 Barcelona Dragons 1992 (1-2)
31 Scottish Claymores 1998 (0-3)
By losing 3-0 to the Amsterdam Admirals last week, the Claymores saw their league-leading streak of 88 games with at least one score brought to an end. The last time they had failed to score was in a 31-0 loss to Amsterdam in Week 4 of the 1995 season.
The result was in stark contrast to Scotland's home opener in 2003 when the Claymores were involved in what was, at the time, the highest-scoring game in league history with Scotland running out 62-31 winners over Berlin Thunder. Last week's 3-0 loss to Amsterdam tied the record for the lowest-scoring contest in league history, matching the Rhein Fire's 3-0 victory against the Frankfurt Galaxy in 2002.
Claymores head coach JACK BICKNELL says: ┬ōI am concerned we are not making enough big plays and being explosive. At the moment we don┬Æt have a guy who can light it up. We have got to find ways to make something explosive happen.┬ö
Since guiding the Barcelona Dragons to victory in Week 7 of the 2003 season, Bicknell has suffered six straight losses as he goes in search of career win number 60.
During those six losses (three with Dragons and three with Claymores) Bicknell's teams have scored 44 points › an average of 7.3 points per outing.
Even though only one 0-3 team has ever bounced back to reach World Bowl (Berlin in 2002), Bicknell remains confident his Claymores will get back on track.
He says: ┬ōGood things happen to teams that work hard. We are not quitting as a group and there will be no finger pointing. We will play and practice hard. I think we are going to be exciting team before we are done. We are in this together and have to turn it around.┬ö
Plaudits and awards continue to pour in for Thunder's Davey
BERLIN quarterback ROHAN DAVEY delivered an outstanding display of passing during the Thunder's 35-31 defeat of the Cologne Centurions on Sunday, continuing his strong start to the 2004 campaign.
Davey completed 19 of 27 passes for 279 yards, 4 touchdowns and a quarterback rating of 127.9.
That effort saw Davey named NFL Europe's Offensive Player of the Week for the second game in a row, making him only the second quarterback in league history to win two Player of the Week prizes in the opening three weeks of a season.
The only other quarterback to be honored twice in the opening three weeks of any year was KERWIN BELL, of the Orlando Thunder, who won recognition in Weeks 1 and 2 of the 1991 season.
Other quarterbacks to win back-to-back Player of the Week awards are Sacramento's DAVID ARCHER in 1992 and STEVE PELLUER, of the Frankfurt Galaxy, in 1996.
Through the opening three games of the year, Davey › a Super Bowl winner with the New England Patriots during the 2003 NFL season › has posted a league-leading quarterback rating of 122.8. The single season passer rating record is 107.3 set by Scotland's KEVIN DAFT in 2000.
Davey's rating is the highest of any quarterback in league history after the first three weeks of a season. Here is the top five:
Player/Team Yards TD/Int Rating
Rohan Davey (Ber 2004) 549 6/1 122.8
Pat Barnes (Fra 2000) 387 4/1 118.3
Kurt Warner (Ams 1998) 792 8/1 105.7
Mike Quinn (Rhe 1998) 623 4/0 103.8
J.T. O'Sullivan (Fra 2004) 458 3/0 103.0
Paying tribute to his star player, Berlin Thunder head coach RICK LANTZ says: ┬ōRohan Davey is just outstanding and he had a big-time football game against Cologne on Sunday.
┬ōHe hits the big passes but he makes all the other throws along the way. He is the complete package at quarterback and he is always in command in the huddle. If he continues to play this way, we will keep winning.┬ö
Even opposing coaches have been wowed by Davey┬Æs form this season. Centurions head coach PETER VAAS says: ┬ōI┬Æm very impressed with the way Rohan Davey throws the deep ball. He finds ways to win, is a very efficient quarterback and he protects the football. You have to be impressed with the big plays Davey and the Berlin Thunder have made this season.┬ö

 THIS WEEK: vs SCOTTISH CLAYMORES 
Centurions go into Week 4 meeting with winless Claymores team still looking for their first victory in franchise history. Head coach PETER VAAS believes a host of mistakes in Berlin resulted in the Centurions coming out on the wrong end of a 35-31 shootout. Vaas said: ┬ōWe can┬Æt have the ball thrown over the top of us the way we did last week. We need to be better in the kicking game. Our kickoff coverage is so atrocious, it┬Æs scary. That has to improve going forward. Also our first pass of the game was tentative and ended up being picked off.

Rhein┬Æs PETE KUHARCHEK has never lost at home to Berlin in the regular season (3-0), although his team did get beaten by the Thunder in World Bowl X at the Rheinstadion. Kuharchek is in his fourth season as head coach of the Fire┬ģ Rookie head coach RICK LANTZ has the Thunder off to their best start in franchise history. Formerly served in NFL Europe as linebackers coach for the 2003 Barcelona Dragons.
German rivals are separated by just one game in the standings heading into this contest in Gelsenkirchen. Fire will be glad to be back on home soil where they have gone 27-6 in their last 33 games┬ģ Under Pete Kuharchek, the Fire has never lost more than one home game in any season and with victory over Berlin on Saturday, they would guarantee an eighth winning campaign in a row at home. Berlin has never won a regular season game on the road against the Fire (0-5) but they will be full of confidence having made a 3-0 start to the season┬ģ Despite being last in the league in average time of possession (28:24 per game), Berlin boasts NFL Europe┬Æs top-ranked offense and a formidable passing attack (234 yards per game, league-high 9 touchdowns, league-best 13.4 yards per completion). Berlin has also conceded a league-low 3 sacks┬ģ Berlin quarterbacks have combined for a team passer rating of 123.3 and Thunder is best in NFLEL on third downs, converting 20 of 35 attempts for a 57.1 percent success rate┬ģ Berlin has averaged 6.2 yards per offensive play (first in NFLEL) and has scored a league-best 11 touchdowns┬ģ Thunder has shown offensive explosion in opening three games, scoring on pass plays covering 52, 47, 45, 43 and 40 yards┬ģ Defensively, the Thunder ranks sixth in NFLEL and they are also the league┬Æs most penalized team (26 flags for 201 yards)┬ģ Rhein has had more success passing the football than running this season. Fire quarterbacks have completed 64.0 percent of their passes (second in NFLEL)┬ģ Rhein ranks sixth in NFLEL in rushing yards, gaining just 65.3 yards per game at an average of 2.6 yards per run┬ģ Rhein will look for special teams to provide good starting field position on Saturday. Fire leads NFLEL with 394 kickoff return yards and 2 touchdowns. Averaging 28.1 yards per return┬ģ Fire has won last five meetings between the clubs and both games last season. RB AUTRY DENSON rushed for 114 yards and 1 touchdown to lead Rhein to victory in Week 2 and also scored on a 25-yard reception┬ģ In the Week 8 meeting between the teams, WRs CHARLIE ADAMS and KENDALL NEWSON scored touchdowns as the Fire won by seven.

JACK BICKNELL has gone 0-6 since he moved to within one win of 60 career victories in Week 7 of the 2003 season. Led his Barcelona Dragons to World Bowl appearances in 1991, 1997, 1999 and 2001, winning on home soil in 1997┬ģ PETER VAAS served as an offensive assistant under Jack Bicknell in Barcelona in 1998-99. The two-time World Bowl winner and former coach of the year has a 3-12 record in the month of April.
Both clubs go in search of opening win in 2004 after starting the year with 0-3 records┬ģ Teams have offered up vastly differing styles in opening weeks of the season. Cologne is the highest-scoring 0-3 team in league history (66 points), while Scotland is the lowest-scoring team in league history through three games (17 points)┬ģ Claymores head into third road game in four weeks needing improved offensive production. Through first three games, Claymores have scored just 2 touchdowns, have the league┬Æs sixth-ranked offense (214 yards per game) and have given up a league-high 10 sacks. Scotland average 3.7 yards per run and 8.2 yards per pass completion┬ģ Cologne boasts NFL Europe┬Æs number two offense and the Centurions lead the way in time of possession, averaging 33:44 per game┬ģ Centurions also have the best offense inside the red zone, scoring on 90.9 percent of trips inside the opposing 20-yard line (11 trips, 6 TD, 4 FG)┬ģ Centurions averaging 5.4 yards per offensive play (second in NFLEL) and rank second in the league in third down conversions (15/35 for 42.9 percent success rate). Centurions lead the league in rushing average with 4.4 yards per carry┬ģ Standing in Cologne┬Æs way will be Scotland┬Æs top-ranked defense. That unit is allowing just 241 yards per game but is still waiting to grab the first interception of the season and has created just one turnover. As a result, Scotland ranks last in turnover ratio at -4┬ģ Cologne is one of only two teams in the league not to have a negative turnover ratio, having committed 6 turnovers and come up with 6 takeaways of their own┬ģ Scotland will go in search of their first interception of 2004 against a team that has thrown a league-high 5 picks in three games┬ģ Centurions aiming to shore up their special teams, having conceded 475 kickoff return yards at an average of 33.9 yards per return. At that pace, Cologne will allow 1,583 kickoff return yards, which would smash the league record of 1,199 allowed by the Amsterdam Admirals in 2003┬ģ The Claymores are the only team in NFL Europe not to have scored a rushing touchdown so far this season┬ģ Scotland has also punted a league-high 18 times in three games┬ģ The Centurions have rolled the dice and gone for it on fourth down more times than any other team in the league, converting twice from seven attempts (28.6 percent success rate).

Best Video Games of 2014
The Contenders: Page 5XW
Other than the slight downfall of both graphics and damage models compared to forza 5 this game is pretty good
Tougher than I thought
This game is awesome. All you naru haters need to stop. name 1 problem I dare youV1 Comment
An underrated masterpiece with true depth and substance. A great contender in proving that video games do have the potential to be recognized as an art form. One of the best original soundtracks for anything in a very long time, excellent balance of emotion, three dimensional characters, groundbreaking use of light and color, unique art style, great story. Possibly the best thing about Valiant Hearts is that you don't fire a single shot in the whole game (with the exception of AA guns and tank shots in brief sections), instead the game actually challenges the player by making them think about what is going on around them and seeing all the people suffering. It's great to finally see a video game about war that has more to offer than just mindless shooting with no substance, instead it carries a serious message about a group of complete strangers who become very close friends in a horrific time in history and have to endure it together.V1 Comment
An overall crappy game. It is inferior to its other Linear-RPG counterparts. Games like Wolfenstein New Order, make this game obsolete - Gamefreak23788
Let's be real here... It's Little Big Planet with Mario. Best thing that's coming in 2014.
This comes out in 2015... - docreywashere

i feel you man i didnt know what this was about but ive doing research i found something usefull of the gamer gate thing here ill paste it What happened was that a woman (Zoe Quinn) was sleeping around with Indy Developers and video-game journalists, and they were all doing some real shady things.
But as this scandal grew, those in the media decided to try and cover it up and attack anyone who tries to speak out against it.
It is about corruption and an attempt to cover it up &/or silence any criticism (essentially an attempt by the journalists to maintain the status-quo) yea ill put the link www.gamefaqs.com/boards/691087-playstation-4/70018796
if im wrong can somebody let me know so i can get a better understanding of the situation please

PASSION TEMPTED HER Charity McLoughlin had gotten herself into another mess. Her wealthy family had disowned her, her purse was empty—and worst of all, she'd been tricked into smuggling Texas silver into Mexico. Now the law was after her. She wasn't sure whether being abducted by a ruggedly handsome stranger who called himself Hawk meant her fortunes were looking up or down. The one thing she didn't doubt was the fiery attraction she felt for this hard-muscled man. Perhaps she wouldn't try to get away just yet. Instead, maybe for just one night, she would surrender to the raging desires that his slightest touch stirred in her . . . DESIRE ENSLAVED HIM David Fierce Hawk had decided long ago that he'd take one of the McLoughlin daughters as his wife because of the kindness and beauty he'd seen in their mother. But he wasn't sure he wanted this daughter—Charity, the blue-eyed hellcat he'd agreed to bring back to the family fold. She was certainly in a good deal of trouble. And Hawk had been betrayed by those he'd tried to help before, including his Osage Indian tribesmen. But for now, he was willing to forget the future. He was alone with Charity under the starry Texas skies, and his lustful thoughts could not be denied. He'd not pass up this chance to twine his hands through her glorious sable locks, and sample the lush pleasures that this wild and lovely woman offered. . . . Praise for Martha Hix "A romantic mixture of sensitivity, humor and spice, Martha Hix's delicious love story offers a refreshingly atypical heroine."—RT Book Reviews, 4 Stars, on Terrific Tom "Hix pens a fast-paced gem filled with playful repartee, a vivacious heroine and a dreamy hero that will make readers sigh with delight."—RT Book Reviews, 4 Stars, on What to Do about Baby "Filled with humor . . . and a wealth of love. Enjoy!"—RT Book Reviews on Magic and the Texan "An entertaining book that combines mysticism with danger."—RT Book Reviews on Destiny's Magic "Martha Hix has given an Arabian Nights tale a new twist, with an unusual genie and plenty of Civil War action."—RT Book Reviews on River Magic

SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK Appellate Division, Fourth Judicial Department
November 10, 2011
IN THE MATTER OF DIANA M. OVSANIK, PETITIONER-RESPONDENT,v.RONALD P. OVSANIK, RESPONDENT-APPELLANT.
Appeal from an order of the Family Court, Steuben County (Marianne Furfure, A.J.), dated February 14, 2011 in a proceeding pursuant to Family Court Act article 8.
Decided on November 10, 2011
Appellate Division, Fourth Department
Published by New York State Law Reporting Bureau pursuant to Judiciary Law § 431.
This opinion is uncorrected and subject to revision before publication in the Official Reports.
The order, among other things, directed respondent to stay away from petitioner.
It is hereby ORDERED that the order so appealed from is unanimously reversed on the law without costs, the petition is
dismissed, and the order of protection is vacated.
Memorandum: In this proceeding pursuant to Family Court Act article 8, respondent contends that Family Court erred in determining that he committed against petitioner the family offense of stalking in the fourth degree (Penal Law § 120.45 [2]. We agree. Petitioner failed to meet her burden of proving by a preponderance of the evidence that respondent committed acts constituting that family offense (see Family Ct Act §§ 812, 832; see generally Matter of Tammy J.H. v John W.H., 42 AD3d 974). The record establishes that the parties were married in 1987 and that, on at least two occasions prior to the events leading up to the instant petition, the parties separated and then reconciled. In July 2009, petitioner left the marital home and began staying at a motel. Between October 2009 and September 2010, respondent visited petitioner at the motel on a daily basis, and it is undisputed that petitioner consented to those visits. In September 2010, however, petitioner informed respondent that she no longer wanted to be married to him and that he should no longer visit her. In an attempt to reconcile with petitioner, respondent left four handwritten letters and a store-bought card for her over a period of approximately one month. During that same period of time, respondent knocked on the door of petitioner's motel room at approximately 2 a.m. at least once or twice. When respondent knocked on her door, petitioner ignored him, and respondent left after a few minutes. Because petitioner worked overnight shifts, it was not unusual for her to be awake at 2 a.m., and respondent previously had visited petitioner during the early morning hours before September 2010.
In light of the foregoing, the evidence is insufficient to establish that respondent acted with "no legitimate purpose" within the meaning of the stalking statute (Penal Law § 120.45). "[T]he phrase no legitimate purpose' means the absence of a reason or justification to engage someone, other than to hound, frighten, intimidate or threaten" (People v Stuart, 100 NY2d 412, 428). Here, the letters and the card were sent with the legitimate purpose of attempting to reconcile with petitioner (see Di Donna v Di Donna, 72 Misc 2d 231, 233), a purpose that was not unreasonable based upon, inter alia, the parties' lengthy marriage and history of separation and reconciliation. The evidence is also insufficient to establish that respondent knew or reasonably should have known that his conduct caused "material harm to [petitioner's] mental or emotional health" (§ 120.45 [2]). Notably, there is nothing on the face of the letters or the card that is improper or threatening (cf. Matter of Julie G. v Yu-Jen G., 81 AD3d 1079, 1082; Matter of Amy SS. v John SS., 68 AD3d 1262, 1263, lv denied 14 NY3d 704). Petitioner's testimony that respondent was physically violent during the marriagedoes not tend to establish that respondent's conduct in 2010 constituted stalking. Indeed, the only incident of violence that was described in any particularity occurred in the early 1990s. Although there is no statute of limitations for family offenses, and acts not "relatively contemporaneous with the date of the petition" are entitled to consideration (Family Ct Act § 812 [1]; see Jose M. v Tatianna T., 30 Misc 3d 948, 949-950), petitioner's remote allegations of physical violence do not establish "a cognizable pattern of behavior" on respondent's part so as to render his behavior devoid of any legitimate purpose (Matter of Opray v Fitzharris, 84 AD3d 1092, 1093).
We therefore reverse the order, dismiss the petition and vacate the order of protection (see generally Matter of Kalifa K., 37 AD3d 1180).

This application claims the benefit of provisional patent application No. 61/074,126, filed Jun. 19, 2008, which is hereby incorporated by reference herein in its entirety.
This invention relates generally to electronic devices, and more particularly, to electronic devices such as portable electronic devices with hard drive circuit boards that use space efficiently.
Handheld electronic devices and other portable electronic devices are becoming increasingly popular. Examples of handheld devices include handheld computers, cellular telephones, media players, and hybrid devices that include the functionality of multiple devices of this type. Popular portable electronic devices that are somewhat larger than traditional handheld electronic devices include laptop computers and tablet computers.
Portable devices often use printed circuit boards. Components that may be mounted to printed circuit boards include integrated circuits, discrete electrical components such as resistors, capacitors, and inductors, and other components such as electrical connectors. Portable devices also may include mass storage devices such as hard drives. Hard drives are controlled by control circuits that are mounted on a hard drive controller printed circuit board. These control circuits are used for functions such as motor control and read-write head placement. To minimize the amount of space that is consumed in a modern small-form-factor hard drive, the hard drive controller printed circuit board is typically mounted within the housing of the hard drive. Although this type of arrangement may be acceptable in some applications, it may lead to packaging inefficiencies. For example, even though space is at a premium in many portable electronic devices, hard drive controller printed circuit boards tend to be sparsely populated. Underutilization of the real estate on hard drive controller boards in this way can be wasteful.
It would therefore be desirable to be able to provide improved hard drive arrangements for portable electronic devices.
Portable electronic devices and circuit board structures for use in portable electronic devices are provided. The circuit board structures may include circuit board structures associated with hard drives. A hard drive printed circuit board may be provided with both hard drive controller circuits and integrated circuits and other components that are not directly associated with operating the hard drive. This allows real estate to be used more efficiently within a portable electronic device.
Further features of the invention, its nature and various advantages will be more apparent from the accompanying drawings and the following detailed description of the preferred embodiments.
The present invention relates generally to electronic devices, and more particularly, to portable electronic devices such as handheld electronic devices.
The portable electronic devices may be laptop computers or small portable computers of the type that are sometimes referred to as ultraportables. Portable electronic devices may also be somewhat smaller devices. Examples of smaller portable electronic devices include wrist-watch devices, pendant devices, headphone and earpiece devices, and other wearable and miniature devices.
The portable electronic devices may be, for example, handheld electronic devices such as cellular telephones, media players with wireless communications capabilities, handheld computers (also sometimes called personal digital assistants), remote controllers, global positioning system (GPS) devices, and handheld gaming devices. Handheld electronic devices may also be hybrid devices that combine the functionality of multiple conventional devices. Examples of hybrid electronic devices include a cellular telephone that includes media player functionality, a gaming device that includes a wireless communications capability, a cellular telephone that includes game and email functions, and a portable device that receives email, supports mobile telephone calls, has music player functionality and supports web browsing. These are merely illustrative examples.
An illustrative portable electronic device in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention is shown in
Device 10 may have housing 12. Housing 12, which is sometimes referred to as a case, may be formed of any suitable materials including, plastic, glass, ceramics, metal, other suitable materials, or a combination of these materials. In arrangements in which device 10 includes wireless communications circuitry, housing 12 or portions of housing 12 may be formed from a dielectric or other low-conductivity material, so that the operation of conductive antenna elements that are located in proximity to housing 12 is not disrupted. Housing 12 or portions of housing 12 may also be formed from conductive materials such as metal.
Device 10 may have one or more displays such as display 14. Display 14 may be a liquid crystal display (LCD), an organic light emitting diode (OLED) display, or any other suitable display. The outermost surface of display 14 may be formed from one or more plastic or glass layers. If desired, touch screen functionality may be integrated into display 14 or may be provided using a separate touch pad device. An advantage of integrating a touch screen into display 14 to make display 14 touch sensitive is that this type of arrangement can save space and reduce visual clutter and can allow the area of display 14 to be maximized.
Device 10 may also include an input-output device such as controller 16. Controller 16 may be, for example, a click wheel that includes multiple buttons. Signals may also be conveyed in and out of device 10 using audio jacks and other connectors. As an example, device 10 may have a connector such as 30-pin connector 18. Connector 18 may be used to convey data and power signals to device 10 (e.g. when device 10 is mounted in a dock or is connected to a 30-pin data cable). Connector 18 may also be used to convey signals out of device 10.
Display screen 14 (e.g., a touch screen), click wheel buttons 16, and connector 18 are merely examples of input-output devices that may be used with electronic device 10. If desired, electronic device 10 may have other input-output devices. For example, electronic device 10 may have user input control devices such as on-off buttons and other buttons, additional input-output jacks (e.g., for audio and/or video), speakers, microphones, etc. The input-output device arrangement of

External equipment 20 may include accessories such as headphones (e.g., a wireless cellular headset or audio headphones) and audio-video equipment (e.g., wireless speakers, a game controller, or other equipment that receives and plays audio and video content), a peripheral such as a wireless printer or camera, etc. External equipment 20 may also include equipment such as an associated wireless access point (router) or an internal or external wireless card that establishes a wireless connection with device 10. A computer such as a personal computer may be included in external equipment 20 and may form a connection with device 10 using a connector such as connector 18 of
In a typical portable electronic device, it may be desirable to store media on a hard disk drive. Handheld electronic devices may, for example, use compact hard drives such as hard drives with platters of 1.8 inches in diameter (so-called 1.8 inch drives). A conventional hard drive of this type is shown in
As shown in
One or more magnetic platters may be connected to motor spindle 34. During operation, a motor in drive 30 rotates spindle 34 to spin the platter. A read-write head is used to access data on the spinning platter. The head may be mounted to an actuator arm. Actuator 36 may be used to control the angular position of an actuator arm and thereby control the location of the head during read and write operations.
The dimensions of hard drive 30 are limited by its components. For example, the height of drive 30 is generally limited by the required height of spindle 34 and its motor. If spindle 34 and the motor that is used to drive spindle 34 are reduced appreciably in size, it will not be possible to adequately spin the hard drive platters. Similarly, if the height of actuator 36 is reduced appreciably, the actuator will not be able to satisfactorily move the actuator arm and hard drive head.
Because of the height requirements of actuator 36 and motor 34, there is generally a recess available within case 32 above the drive platters. This recess is typically used to mount a hard drive controller printed circuit board such as board 38. As shown in
The lateral and longitudinal dimensions of conventional hard drives are constrained by the sizes required to accommodate the hard drive platters and the head actuator mechanisms. Accordingly, there is a relatively large amount of circuit board area ("real estate") available on conventional printed circuit boards such as printed circuit board 38. This real estate is not generally fully utilized, so conventional hard drive controller printed circuit boards tend to be sparsely populated with components.
A cross-sectional view of a conventional handheld electronic device that includes a hard drive such as conventional hard drive 30 of
In the arrangement of
System board 62 may be used to mount components such as a processor integrated circuit, an audio integrated circuit, memory chips, and other electrical components for device 48. Hard drive controller components such as the motor and actuator controller chips for drive 30 are mounted on hard drive controller board 38. This type of arrangement may be satisfactory for some applications, but tends to be inefficient, because system board 62 consumes potentially valuable space within the housing of device 48. This space may, for example, limit the size of display 50.
An illustrative handheld electronic device 10 in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention is shown in the cross-sectional view of
The components of device 10 may be interconnected using any suitable connection arrangement. For example, flex circuit paths, wires, other suitable paths may be used to distribute signals. As shown in
Connectors such as connectors 88, 84, 76, and 72 may be formed using any suitable connector arrangement. Examples of connectors that may be used include zero insertion force (ZIF) connectors, board-to-board connectors, soldered wire connectors, connectors that use conductive foam, and conductive structures that use anisotropic conductive film (as examples). Paths such as paths 86 and 74 may be formed using wire (e.g., stranded wire), flex circuits, rigid printed circuit board structures, metal clips, springs, combinations of these structures, etc.
Illustrative layouts that may be used for the components on multipurpose board 78 are shown in the cross-sectional views of
Both system components and hard-drive controller components are depicted as components 92 in
In the illustrative arrangements of
If desired, connections between components may be formed using a film that becomes conductive with exposure to pressure. This type of connection may be used, for example, to mount an end of a flex circuit (e.g., a flex circuit path such a path 86 or path 74 of
If desired, multipurpose circuit board 78 may be formed from a rigid flex structure. Rigid flex circuits incorporate rigid circuit board portions and flex circuit portions in a unitary structure. An arrangement of this type is shown in
As shown in
For shock protection, it may be desirable to mount hard drive 30 so that there is some potential for movement relative to case 12. Shock mounting arrangements may involve encasing drive 30 in foam or ribbed plastic structures that can help hard drive 30 to absorb the force associated with an unintended impact on device 10. When such shock mounting arrangements are used, it may be advantageous to form connections to system board 78 using flexible electrical paths such as flex circuit paths and wires, rather than inflexible paths such as direct connections to circuit boards. The flexibility of electrical paths of this type may help to prevent damage to the electrical paths when device 10 is subjected to an impact.
With one suitable arrangement, multipurpose board 78 may be formed from a rigid flex of the type shown in
In the
As described in connection with
If desired, flexible paths may be provided between hard drive circuitry and peripheral components using other arrangements. As an example, a hard drive printed circuit board that is formed from rigid materials (e.g., a standard printed circuit board formed from fiberglass-filled epoxy or other printed circuit board materials) may be provided with flex circuit paths for interconnecting components by connecting flex circuits to the rigid printed circuit board using suitable connectors (e.g., board-to-board connectors, zero insertion force connectors, etc.). This type of hard drive printed circuit board may be mounted within the housing walls of the hard drive (i.e., as an integral portion of the hard drive) or may be otherwise attached to the hard drive.
A rigid hard drive printed circuit board that is mounted to a hard drive or that is formed integrally within a hard drive may also be provided with flexible tails by connecting flex circuits to the rigid printed circuit board using connectors formed from anisotropic conductive film. The circuitry on the rigid printed circuit board may be connected to components in the hard drive (e.g., a hard drive motor, an actuator for a hard drive head, etc.), whereas the flex circuit paths may be connected to input-output components in the handheld device.
In the
Board 78 may be provided in the form of multiple subboards such as subboards 78A and 78B in the example of
Another illustrative arrangement is shown in
A cross-sectional end view of an illustrative hard drive 30 with a multipurpose circuit board 78 is shown in
Hard drive components 126 may include magnetic platters, motor components, head actuator arms, etc. Multipurpose circuit board 78 may, as shown in
The foregoing is merely illustrative of the principles of this invention and various modifications can be made by those skilled in the art without departing from the scope and spirit of the invention.
