~This place of Mine~
This is just a little story of my life growing up, it isn't my whole life as you can probably tell, but its a part of it that is dear to me and that i will never forget.
This place is where I grew up.
It was my never ending adventure and everyday something new would be found as I explored it with my little brother when we were younger. It was a place where a child's mind could run wild like the river and grow like the timeless trees. This place was a campground on the mountain. The campground was on privately owned land, which meant it was all ours. No real rules put down to trip us, nothing to shut us out, just a place in the valley all to ourselves. It was like a second home to my brother and I, and it still is, just instead of going up there every weekend...now I only go up once a year if I'm lucky.
Even though I'm not there as much as used to be I can still remember it. It was the place that helped me become who I am. I remember it all. The rain as it danced on the huge orange tarps and rolled off the sides like a light waterfall. All those giant puddles to jump in after the rainy night. The morning sun that peeked through the trees and made every dew drop sparkle like lingering stars.
I can still feel the sand between my toes as me and my little brother walked barefoot along the rivers edge. Those colorful and smooth rocks that we would skip into the river as it rushed by us down the valley. All the creations created and ideas openly shared together. The hours spent swimming in the lake, and trying to catch tad poles and frogs in our bare hands. Those family walks in the forest that revealed all the nightly visitors. There tracks and trails that we would curiously follow all day in hopes of seeing who they belonged to.
I remember it all, every new thing found, every color that draped lavishly around me. The wonderful nights by the fire as a family, laughing as the fired fed on what we tossed in, and the discovery of pine-needles popping in the heat. Listening to trees whisper to one another in the wind and wondering what they were talking about.
Everything about that place seemed perfect to me, and when we went back home the comforting smell of nature and smoke still lingered on our clothing as a silent but strong reminder. Those days came so slowly though, every one taking longer than the next as we waited for the weekend to arrive so that we could continue our exploring and unfinished adventures. We weren't waiting to go to some run down piece of land, not to some forgotten campground. We were waiting to get back to our place...our home, my home.
The place where I grew up…and became me.

1. Field
The present invention relates to a standup exercise apparatus that simulates walking, jogging and climbing with arm exercise. More particularly, the present invention relates to an exercise machine having separately supported pedals for the feet and arm exercise coordinated with the motion of the feet.
2. State of the Art
The benefits of regular exercise to improve overall health, appearance and longevity are well documented in the literature. For exercise enthusiasts the search continues for safe apparatus that provides full body exercise for maximum benefit in minimum time.
Recently, a new category of exercise equipment has appeared on the commercial market called elliptical cross trainers. These cross trainers guide the feet along a generally elliptical shaped curve to simulate the motions of jogging and climbing. Generally they are large exercise machines using long cranks to generate a long foot stride. Often the pedals are too far apart with compact elliptical exercise machines due to the linkage and shrouding positioned between the pedals. There is a need for a more compact elliptical exercise machine capable of a similar long stride using a linkage to modify the crank that allows the pedals to be close together.
Recently, there has been an effort to improve the up and down motion of stair climbers by the addition of horizontal movements. Habing in U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,299,993 and 5,499,956 offers an articulated linkage controlled through cables by motor to move pedals through an ovate path. Both pedal pivots follow basically the same guidance path curve directed by a motor controller. Stearns in U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,290,211 and 5,299,993 shows a stair stepping exercise machine which incorporates horizontal movement using a combination of vertical parallelogram linkage and horizontal parallelogram linkage to guide the foot pedals. The parallelogram linkages serve to maintain the pedal at a constant angle relative to the floor during a pedal cycle. The pedal pivots move through similar undefined guide paths. Eschenbach in U.S. Pat. No. 5,279,529 shows several embodiments of elliptical pedal motion configured to maintain the heel of the user on the pedal during a substantial portion of the pedal cycle.
Standup pedal exercise is shown in U.S. Pat. No. 4,643,419 (Hyde) and by Jarriel et al. In U.S. Pat. No. Des. 330,236 where pedal platforms move by dual crank motion but remain parallel to the floor. Knudsen in U.S. Pat. No. 5,433,680 shows an elliptical path generating mechanism with pedals having only one pivot allowing the pedal to rotate unconstrained about the pivot as in a bicycle crank.
Standup pedal exercise combined with arm levers attached to the pedals is shown in Kummerlin et al. German Pat. No. 2,919,494 and in Geschwender U.S. Pat. No. 4,786,050. Standup pedal exercise coupled with oscillating swing arms is shown in Miller U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,242,343 and 5,383,829 and in Eschenbach U.S. Pat. No. 5,423,729. All of these exercise machines use pedals having two pedal pivots which are guided by a first circular guide path curve generated by a crank which rotates through one full revolution during a pedal cycle and a second arc guide path curve generated by a rocker link or track.
Recently, numerous elliptical exercise machines have appeared in the patent literature. Rogers, Jr. in U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,527,246, 5,529,555, 5,540,637, 5,549,526, 5,573,480, 5,591,107, 5,593,371, 5,593,372, 5,595,553, 5,611,757, 5,637,058, 5,653,662 and 5,743,834 shows elliptical pedal motion by virtue of various reciprocating members and geared linkage systems. Miller in U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,518,473, 5,562,574, 5,611,756, 5,518,473, 5,562,574, 5,577,985, 5,755,642 and 5,788,609 also shows elliptical pedal motion using reciprocating members and various linkage mechanisms along with oscillating guide links with control links to determine pedal angles. Ryan et al. in U.S. Pat. No. 5,899,833 shows an elliptical cross trainer having a forward crank driving a pedal linkage underneath the operator.
Chang in U.S. Pat. No. 5,803,872 and Yu et al. in U.S. Pat. No. 5,800,315 show a pedal supported by a rocker link and driven with a pair of links located under the pedal pivotally connected to a crank. Maresh et al. in U.S. Pat. No. 5,792,026 show a foot support member supported by a rocker link and driven by a double crank mechanism. Maresh in U.S. Pat. No. 5,897,463 shows a foot platform with parallel movement as the the foot platform follows an oval path. Lee in U.S. Pat. No. 5,779,598 and Chen in U.S. Pat. No. 5,823,914 show a pedal link driven by two separate cranks. Lin et al. in U.S. Pat. No. 5,769,760 offers elliptical foot and hand motion. Sands et al. U.S. Pat. No. 5,755,643 shows elliptical foot motion with folding front post.
Lee in U.S. Pat. No. 5,746,683 shows a foot support member supported on one end with a compound rocker wherein a slider and handle lever support the rocker. Kuo in U.S. Pat. No. 5,836,854 offers a linear foot support member connected on one end to a crank and guided along an arcuate curve under the pedal by a linkage on the other end. Wang et al. U.S. Pat. No. 5,830,112 shows a foot support member sliding on a pivot on one end and attached to a crank on the other that can fold. Chen U.S. Pat. No. 5,823,917 shows a foot support member driven by a crank on one end and supported by a stationary roller on the other. Chen U.S. Pat. No. 5,820,524 offers a slider crank mechanism having a pedal pivotally attached with a control link to articulate the pedal angle.
Chen U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,779,599 and 5,762,588 shows an elliptical pedal movement with a roller interface between the foot support member and crank. Chen in U.S. Pat. No. 5,759,136 shows a foot support member with a moving pedal for adjustable elliptical motion wherein a link from the pedal to the crank can be repositioned to change the pedal stroke length. Kuo U.S. Pat. No. 5,846,166 shows a foot support member guided on one end by a roller and driven on the other end by a four bar linkage. Stearns et al. in U.S. Pat. No. 5,848,954 offers a foot support member pivoted on one end with a lift crank on the other and a pedal moving on the foot support member to generate elliptical type foot motion.
There is a need for a compact pedal operated exercise machine that can be safely operated in the standup position having a long pedal stroke whereby the arms and legs can be exercised with the feet close together moving through a generally elliptical movement.
It is one objective of this invention to provide an elliptical pedal movement with a crank linkage that provides a compact and simple exercise machine with a small footprint. Another object of this invention is to contain the driving linkage under the pedals. Another objective of this invention is to position the pedals close together as preferred by women users. Yet another object of this invention is to provide arm exercise that is coordinated with the pedal movement.
The present invention relates to the kinematic motion control of pedals which simulate running, climbing and cycling. More particularly, apparatus is provided that offers variable intensity exercise through a leg operated cyclic motion in which the pedal supporting each foot is guided through successive positions during the motion cycle while a load resistance acts upon the mechanism.
The pedals are guided through an oblong or elongate curve motion while pedal angles vary during the pedal cycle to maintain the heel of the foot generally in contact with the pedal. As the foot is raised, the heel of the foot remains generally in contact with the inclining pedal for safer operation. Arm exercise is by arm levers coordinated with the mechanism guiding the foot pedals.
In the preferred embodiment, the apparatus includes a separate pedal for each foot, each pedal being extended by a foot support member having a first portion and a second portion. A rotary crank is attached to the framework under the foot support member proximate the floor. The crank completes one full revolution during a pedal cycle and is phased generally opposite the crank for the other pedal through a crankshaft bearing housing attached to the framework.
A rocker link is pivotally connected at one end to the framework proximate the floor. A coupler member is connected to the crank at a crank pivot and the rocker link is connected to the coupler member at a rocker pivot positioned intermediate the ends to cause the rocker link to oscillate back and forth as the crank turns. The other end of the rocker link is pivotally connected to the first portion of the foot support member to guide for back and forth movement.
The coupler member is extended upward to position a roller offset relative to a line connecting the crank pivot and rocker pivot on the coupler member. The roller is in rollable contact with the second portion of the foot support member to provide generally up and down movement as the crank is rotated. The crank, rocker link, coupler member and foot support member cause the pedal to follow an elongate curve similar to an ellipse. The pedals may be positioned as close together as desired.
Arm exercise is provided with handles pivotally connected to the framework. A connecting link is pivotally connected to each handle and each foot support member to coordinate the arm movement with the foot. When the foot is forward, the handle corresponding to that foot is generally rearward. The connecting link could also be connected to the pedal, rocker link or coupler link for similar coordination.
A step surface is provided as part of the shroud to mount the pedals from the rear or side. The shroud is close to the floor to completely contain the load resistance, crank, a portion of the coupler members and lower portion of the rocker links. Slots provided on the step surface allow the upper portion of the rocker links and coupler members to protrude for support of each foot support member located above the step surface.
In an alternate embodiment, the roller is positioned on the foot support member offset to the centerline of the foot support member. A foot support extension protrudes downward from the foot support member to position the roller in rollable contact with the coupler member. As the crank rotates, the second portion of the foot support member has up and down movement while the roller rolls relative to the coupler member. The remainder of the alternate embodiment is similar to the preferred embodiment.
Load resistance is imposed upon the crank for each embodiment through a first pulley attached to the crank which is engaged by belt to second pulley supported by a jackshaft. A third pulley is attached to the jackshaft to drive a flywheel and alternator. The alternator can be varied during operation through a control system within easy reach of the operator. Other forms of load resistance such as friction discs, magnetic, air, friction belt, etc. may also be used.
In summary, this invention provides the operator with stable foot pedal support having motions that simulate running, jogging and climbing with very low joint impact and upper body exercise in a compact space having a small footprint. The linkage driven by the pedals and load resistance are contained in a shroud positioned close to the floor. The pedal stroke is considerably longer than the crank stroke. Arm exercise is coordinated with the pedal motion.
FIG. 1 is a right side elevation view of the preferred embodiment of an exercise machine constructed in accordance with the present invention;
FIG. 2 is the front view of the preferred embodiment shown in FIG. 1;
FIG. 3 is a side view of an alternate embodiment showing only one side of the exercise machine;
Referring to the drawings in detail, pedals 52 and 50 are shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 in the most forward and rearward positions of the preferred embodiment. Pedals 50 and 52 are supported by foot support members 20 and 22 which have foot support pivots 23,25 in a first portion. Pedals 50,52 are positioned in the second portion of foot support members 20,22. Foot support pivots 23 and 25 are pivotally attached to rocker links 47 and 49 which are connected to frame members 70,72,74 at pivots 67,69 positioned close to the floor.
Cranks 54 and 56 are connected in opposing directions by crankshaft journal 55 (not shown) which is rotatably secured to the frame member 70 by bearing housing 38. Coupler members 30,32 are connected to rocker links 47,49 at pivots 41,44 and to cranks 54,56 at pivots 43,45. Rotation of cranks 54,56 cause rocker links 47,49 to oscillate back and forth.
Coupler extensions 62,64 are attached to the coupler members 30,32 as an integral portion of the coupler members 30,32. Rollers 6,8 are connected to coupler extensions 62,64 at pivots 24,26 offset relative to coupler member centerlines 11 and are in rollable contact with tracks 16,18 positioned proximate the second portion of said foot support members 20,22.
Handles 66,68 are attached to crossover member 78 at pivots 61,63 for arm exercise. Handle extension links 92,94 are extended downward relative to handles 66,68. Connector links 96,98 are connected to handle extension links 92,94 by pivots 95,97 and to foot support members 20,22 at pivots 99,101.
Frame members 70, 72 and 74 are attached to crossover members 71,73 configured to be supported by the floor. Frame member 76 is attached to frame members 70,71 and supports crossover member 78.
Flywheel 79 is rotatably supported by alternator 36 attached to frame member 70. Belt 84 connects flywheel 79 to pulley 86 which is supported by jackshaft 83 also supported by frame member 70. Pulley 80 on jackshaft 83 is engaged with belt 82 which is also engaged with pulley 42 attached to cranks 54,56.
Shroud 57 with step surface 59 is supported by frame members 71,72,73,74 and contains cranks 54,56, coupler links 30,32, pulleys 42,80,86, flywheel 79 and alternator 36. Rocker links 47,49 and coupler extensions 62,64 protrude upward through slots 51,53 to support foot support members 20,22.
Control system 10 is attached to crossover member 78. Wires 9 are connected to alternator wires 7 by conventional means not shown. The knob 6 can be manually changed during operation by the operator to vary load intensity imposed by alternator 36 or by automatic program.
Application of body weight on the pedals 50,52 and force applied at the arm levers 66,68 cause the flywheel 79 to rotate for a gain in momentum while the pedals 50,52 follow the elongate pedal curve 2 shown in FIG. 1. The flywheel 79 momentum will carry the linkage system through any dead center positions of the crank 54,56. The pedals 50,52 and handles 66,68 can be operated to drive the flywheel 79 in either direction of rotation.
An alternate embodiment is shown in FIG. 3 with the pedal 50 in the most forward position. Only one side of the exercise machine is shown for clarity. Foot support extension 16 is attached to the foot support member 20 and becomes an integral part of foot support member 20. A roller 5 is attached to the foot support extension 16 at pivot 15 offset relative to the centerline 13 of the foot support member 20. Roller 5 is in rollable contact with coupler member 4 which is connected to crank 54 at crank pivot 43 and to rocker link 47 at rocker pivot 41. As crank 54 rotates, coupler member 4 causes roller 5 to move the second portion of foot support member 20 up and down while pedal 50 follows elongate curve 3. The connecting link 96 is connected to pedal 50 at pivot 91. Load resistance, control system and shroud are similar to the preferred embodiment but not shown for clarity. Frame members 70,71,72,73,76,78 are similar to the preferred embodiment.
The present invention is an improvement over prior art cross trainers because the foot support members 20,22 are positioned above the linkage support and drive system allowing pedals 50,52 to be positioned close together. The footprint of the present invention is approximately one-half the length of the footprint of conventional cross trainers now on the market. However, the pedal curves 2 and 3 are maintained approximately the same length as the full size crosstrainers. This much smaller footprint represents a huge space savings in fitness clubs or in the home.
The present invention may be embodied in other specific forms without departing from its spirit or essential characteristics. The described embodiments are to be considered in all respects only as illustrative, and not restrictive. The scope of the invention is, therefore, indicated by the claims, rather than by foregoing description. All changes which come within the meaning and range of equivalency of the claims are to be embraced within their scope.

A Storm on a Sunny Day
Except for a few stragglers at the horizon, last night's rain clouds have blown away. Elena cautiously admits to herself that the day's persistent sunshine and fresh breeze promise clarity, at least. Her feet beat a steady rhythm as she nears the forest.
She likes to run on the forest's loop trail because it's less crowded than some of the newer fitness trails in the area. Most days, she and the deer just about have the place to themselves. The trail is a bit muddy today, and each breath fills her nose with various smells of wetness and decay.
Scenes from the day Jack died run through her mind again, as they have every day – an unwelcome part of her new routine. She can't shake them, so she lets the memories overtake her. The last time she saw him alive, he said "Bye" and gave her a colorless kiss on the cheek as he left for work. Bye-smooch, boom-bap. She had a slew of meetings with county people that day and didn't call him. Then he was on the floor inside the back door, motionless: that cold, unavoidable image rolls around in the bottom of her skull like a pale marble. Then the police took some pictures and asked her questions forever. She keeps thinking one of them was named Dullard, but that can't be right. He was the sharp one, too. The younger one kept looking at her with sorrow in his eyes, and God help her but she just wanted to smack him.
No, she hadn't moved anything. Yes, she'd opened the back door when she found him, looking for someone to explain it to her. Nobody was out there. No, she didn't find a note. No, they hadn't quarreled over anything. No, he wasn't depressed, as far as she knew. The detective who took over the investigation was more tolerable but no more helpful. The facts, as she summarized them to Elena, were that the pills were Jack's, nothing was out of place, the only fingerprints in the apartment were theirs and their previous night's dinner guests', and he had no known enemies … and the human heart is an eternal mystery. The absence of a note didn't mean much, she thought.
Two joggers approach from the other direction, interrupting Elena's reverie. She brings her attention back to the present and the trail in front of her. She's breathing too fast, so she resumes her regular pattern, and she's in proper form by the time she passes the couple. The woman is wearing mirrored sunglasses and a sweat-stained grey T-shirt. She doesn't return Elena's nod of solidarity, and Elena feels a twinge of annoyance. She thinks cattily, How many miles are you running today?
Her mood lightens when she emerges from the forest trail into full midday sunshine. She feels the familiar burning in her leg muscles, but she rebels at the thought of heading back indoors now, so she shifts into a slower pace and turns toward the longer, northern route back to town. She bares her teeth and chuckles softly, thinking of bugs and windscreens, relishing the wind in her face.
After Elena crosses the railroad tracks in town, a piece of gravel that jumped into her shoe is bedeviling her heel. She stops at a bench to shake it out, and it takes some time for her head and body to adjust to the feeling of standing still. Across the street, she realizes, is Three Monkeys, the bar where Jack and his friends used to play darts every couple of weeks. She recalls that she's meant to call and thank the bartender there for his kindness after Jack died. He isn't the only one she's been putting off, though. As long as I'm here, she thinks, it'd be rude not to go say hello. He is Jack's old friend.
The chimps illustrated on the sign outside the bar - one covering its ears, one covering its eyes, and one covering its mouth - all look like they're having a grand time. Getting herself through the door is harder than Elena expects. While her eyes adapt to the dim light in the entry, she stops and takes a deep breath to steady herself as she's ambushed by memories of the few times she came here with Jack. The smells of cigarette smoke and lemons - lemons? - and an oddly pleasant mustiness intensify the feeling.
A young woman in a flowery blouse is eyeing Elena quizzically from the bar. She is bent over a magazine, tapping a pen on the lacquered wood. Elena composes herself, steps forward, and says, "Hello. Is Thomas in?"
The girl replies, "I'll get 'im," and picks up a large knife. She uses it to sweep a fleet of uneven lemon wedges into a tin pan. After another glance at Elena, she disappears through a swinging door behind the far end of the bar.
Alone for the moment, Elena does a few quick stretches. She peeks at the girl's magazine and reads the headline upside down: "Stuck in a Rut? Five Ways to Shake Up Your Routine." The first colored box on the page reads Challenge Yourself. She doesn't bother reading further, and turns to a collection of framed photographs on the wall. They show bar regulars and local celebrities. Elena catches herself scanning the faces for Jack's, but she doesn't see him. She's stuck on a picture of a pro baseball player cheerfully flipping off the photographer when a man's voice rings out behind her.
"Elena! Is that you?" Thomas stands there, wringing a frayed dishtowel. He gives an appreciative whistle and calls, "Turn the air up, Clo! It's getting hot in here!"
Mustering a polite smile, Elena says, "Hello, Thomas."
The avuncular bartender steps toward her with his arms spread. She stiffens in his embrace at first, then relaxes and pats his back lightly.
Thomas releases her and says, "It's so great to see you." Elena is frozen for a moment, remembering the similar things she said to sympathetic friends and strangers at Jack's funeral.
Recovering, she stammers, "I'm – I'm sorry I didn't call sooner."
"Not at all! You must have a bunch going on." He looks at a clock over the bar and says, "Not too early for a cold one, is it? Stout?"
His teasing tone is charming, and she accepts. Thomas nods toward the front of the bar. "Have a seat." While he pours, Elena chooses a table by the window, half-lit by a thin shaft of sun.
Approaching with two full glasses, Thomas says, "Hey, I saw your name in the paper last week."
Elena remembers the reporter's call, but not his question. "Yes … you have to shamble out of the swamp now and then so people remember who you are."
Thomas settles into the chair across from her. "Well, you look like you're taking care of yourself."
"Thanks." Elena lifts her glass carefully. "I've been running. It feels good to sit down. How's trade?"
Caught in the middle of a sip, Thomas raises his eyebrows. "Not bad, not great …. The place isn't the same without Jack, though."
She expected they would talk about him, and though her scalp tingles with surprise at hearing his name spoken, she maintains a natural pose. "You were a true friend to him," she says sincerely.
"He was to me too. The guys are organizing a memorial tournament for him." Thomas looks at the darkened opposite wall, where a typed roster of names and scores hangs beside three dart boards. The phone at the bar rings. He turns around and watches it, then turns back to Elena when Clo takes the call.
Elena presses her lips into a smile. While she and Jack were courting, he made a point of bringing her here and presenting her to Thomas one evening. She held her own adequately, but felt slightly humiliated nonetheless. She never told Jack because he was so high on their young love, and the feeling faded into triviality soon afterward.
Thomas is looking at her. "Are you really okay?" he asks confidentially.
She starts to answer the same way she's answered the same question a dozen times – "Yes, fine – ", then stops herself. She notices how the bright sunlight makes everything look too real to be real: The young trees planted in the median, the sparrows pecking around under them, a moped rider buzzing past … and her own wrist, reflected in the glass. Are you going to lie again?
Elena looks up at Thomas, inhales, and starts over. "Well, no, I guess I'm not. Jack's gone, first off, and that's set in stone, and I don't know when I'm supposed to be at peace with that. Maybe I won't get there at all, hm?" Her voice rises a bit, riding an unexpected flare of anger. "This is a pit that's always going to be there, and every day I'll have to choose whether to tiptoe around it or stare right down into it. So excuse me, everyone, if you catch me on one of those days!"
Thomas looks as though he's out of his depth, but Elena takes a quick drink of the bitter beer and presses on.
"Everyone will say it's natural to have a different outlook, but they don't really expect you to act differently. If you do, it's like you've brought your troubles to their house. So you carry on. I'm not looking for sympathy, just some leeway!" She regards the street again. "I'm a bundle of nerves all the time. I have bad dreams, I'm in therapy, and I try to stay occupied, but I'm not honestly getting anywhere. This morning, I thought the man on CNN was talking to me, like in some science fiction movie! I need to give myself permission to go a bit crazy, but not to go insane."
Thomas reaches over and grasps her elbow. "Slow down, hon. You're running yourself ragged."
Elena continues, "I'm supposed to be the woman who's got her whole life together, right? And now I'm supposed to 'take responsibility for my actions without blaming myself' – for anything. But I don't know where the 'healthy balance' between them is! Isn't it a good idea to grab yourself by the bloody neck when you need to?" She sees that she has a choke hold on her glass, and takes another drink. She gathers her courage as she swallows.
With effort, she says, "I don't think Jack really killed himself." She locks onto Thomas' eyes, desperate for him to believe her. "Someone else did."
He pulls his hand back, and after a few uncertain seconds, he looks down. "Well … things can change so fast." He moves his hands around clumsily, as though he's building his theory with mashed potatoes. "You get a phone call … a threat …. Most people have something that could come back to bite 'em. Even just something they saw, or something they said once …."
Elena stops his hands with both of hers, more roughly than she intended. "I don't know his whole history," she snarls, "but he had an untroubled soul. I looked into his eyes every night. I would know." She sounds convincing, even while she reminds herself silently that she hadn't seen Jack for hours before he died. "He was planning for the future!"
"Have you told the police?"
Elena can tell that he's only humoring her. Impatiently, she says, "I told them when they came! But you give them a likely scenario that mostly fits the facts and an unlikely one that isn't supported, and see how they close it!"
"I don't know anyone that ever had a problem with Jack." He still looks slightly nervous. Clo, who's been taking lunch orders, calls, "Tom!"
Thomas fumbles with something in his lap. He stands, presses a business card into Elena's hand, and says, "Lunch rush is gonna start. Call me if you need to talk again, okay? There's my cell number. The door's always open. It was good seeing you."
Elena walks through town stiffly, but with poise. She plans to wrap her legs in hot towels later, and maybe turn off her phone and watch a movie. She thinks about the fact that she'll probably never have all the answers to why and how Jack died. Part of her recognizes the truth in what Thomas said about the past and how suddenly things can change. She knows that a secret can easily lie undiscovered at the bottom of a person's soul forever. She has one or two of her own.
When Elena is halfway home, the breeze starts blowing harder. She sticks her hands in her pockets and feels Thomas' card. She pulls it out, looks at it bitterly, and flips it absentmindedly a few times. Then she notices something written on the back. A thrill galvanizes her as she focuses on the message there:
You're Right.

Higher Rates Would Underline Europe's Problems
Financial markets are usually well attuned to anything that might have a euro-zone debt angle for very good reason. So, on the face of it, it's hard to see why the prospect of higher interest rates in the bloc isn't causing more jitters.
There have been hawkish rumblings out of the European Central Bank for a while. The latest came in an interview with the Wall Street Journal ahead of this week's annual World Economic Forum get-together in Davos.
ECB chief Jean-Claude Trichet warned that inflation pressures in the euro zone must be watched closely and urged central bankers everywhere to ensure higher energy and food prices don't bed down in the global economy.
Strong stuff for a central banker…

Is there an easy way to hold dates for a specified amount of time?
For normal customers, my message says that I'll hold it for 12 hours, and I generally remember. But, I've been getting a bunch of check people, and "I need to check with my boss about vacation time" holds, which should be a few days.
If when generating a new quote, it gave a warning of an overlap, that would be sufficient for my needs, as well, I think.

Youngs will take over the hooking duties from Dylan Hartley, who has been sidelined with a knee injury which threatens to keep him out of England's entire QBE autumn international series.
Ugo Monye will make his England comeback on the left wing in place of the injured Ben Foden, while Charlie Sharples deputises for the suspended Chris Ashton on the right wing. Alex Goode continues at full-back while Brad Barritt and Manu Tuilagi link up in a hard-hitting centre partnership, with Toby Flood and Danny Care the half-backs.
There are a total of five changes from the 14-14 draw with South Africa in the summer, with Chris Robshaw back to captain the side after missing that Test with a broken hand.
Tom Johnson continues at blindside flanker after making his Test debut on the summer tour, while Tom Wood returns to the England fold after 14 injury-plagued months with a place on the bench.
The uncapped pair of Saracens prop Mako Vunipola and Wasps lock Joe Launchbury are primed to make their Test debuts off the bench.
Flood is the most experienced player in the side with 50 caps - the combined total of England's starting line-up is just 215.
Head coach Stuart Lancaster said: "Congratulations to Tom Youngs, who has made a great transition from centre to hooker in a short period and deserves his chance, as do Joe Launchbury and Mako Vunipola, who we are pleased to be able to include in the squad."
England team: A Goode (Saracens); C Sharples (Gloucester), M Tuilagi (Leicester), B Barritt (Saracens), U Monye (Harlequins); T Flood (Leicester), D Care (Harlequins); J Marler (Harlequins), T Youngs (Leicester), D Cole (Leicester), T Palmer (Wasps), G Parling (Leicester), T Johnson (Exeter), C Robshaw (Harlequins, capt), T Waldrom (Leicester).
Replacements: D Paice (London Irish), D Wilson (Bath), M Vunipola (Saracens), J Launchbury (Wasps), T Wood (Northampton), B Youngs (Leicester), O Farrell (Saracens), M Brown (Harlequins).

She dropped her job to join the revolution against a hated regime. Injured, she was treated by a young man who fell in love with her and a month later, the two were married.
The storyline sounds fictional, but it happened in real life on Kiev's Independence Square, where love has blossomed among the grimy tents of Ukraine's barricaded anti-government enclave.
It all began in December when 25-year-old Yulia Serko left her hometown of Rivne in western Ukraine after protesters rose up in the capital against the president's decision to edge away from the European Union and move closer to Russia.
"I was sick of all this chaos, of this mafia in power," she says.
The softly spoken Serko went straight to Kiev city hall, which had been taken over by protesters demanding the departure of President Viktor Yanukovych, and volunteered to work in the kitchen.
One night in early January, a wardrobe used to prop up a barricade keeping Ukraine's riot police out of the building fell on her. Fearing her arm was broken, she went straight to a makeshift hospital in the building where Bogdan Zabavchuk, a 21-year-old who had studied chemistry, prepared a medicinal concoction to help her.
"A beautiful girl comes along and asks me to help heal her arm," Zabavchuk recalls, smiling as he sits next to his now-wife in city hall, as a man gives a rudimentary English lesson to protesters nearby.
"I wanted to ask for her number, but I was busy and she left straight away."
Three days later, he finally went to the kitchen, asked her out, and the two hit it off immediately. "On the fourth day of knowing her, I knew she was the person I wanted to spend my life with," he says.
Serko was back at home when riots erupted again at the end of January and Zabavchuk was hurt by riot police who beat him in the ribs.
"I wanted to come back earlier but he didn't want me to. It's scarier seeing this on television than actually being at the heart of events," Serko says. She eventually took a bus back earlier than anticipated and he came to greet her at the station in Kiev."He took my suitcase but he had trouble carrying it, that's when I realised he had been hurt."
He proposed again and again over the next few days, and when she realised he was serious, a priest married them at city hall.
Serko had told her parents she was getting married a day before the ceremony, but Zabavchuk's mum and dad found out on television after journalists filmed the event.
"My mum burst into tears and she congratulated me. My dad, though, immediately asked to meet my wife," he recalls.
The two were then treated to some champagne, which they drank while being driven around the barricades protecting the square, under the bemused eyes of riot police posted outside.

Downturn Prompts Minnesota-Crookston to End Hockey
March 24, 2009
Hockey is to Minnesota as football is to Alabama and basketball to North Carolina -- and not easily trifled with. But these are troubled economic times, bad enough to force the University of Minnesota-Crookston to discontinue its Division II men's hockey program, the university announced Monday. Campus officials said the state's financial situation and the challenges of fielding a Division II program in a region where few others exist had made continuing the team impossible.

Michelle Obama and Dr. Jill Biden Booed by NASCAR fans
First Lady Michelle Obama and Dr. Jill Biden, Vice President Joe Biden's wife, were at the Homestead-Miami Speedway to promote Joining Forces, an organization that promotes the hiring and training of veterans, when they were booed by some NASCAR fans as they served as the grand marshals for the racing circuit's final event Sunday. They were joined by Army Sgt. Andrew Barry, a veteran of the Afghan and Iraqi wars who now volunteers at an Orlando, Fla., veterans center, and his family. The clip shows that people cheer for the soldier, but boo when the two women's names are announced. There are some audible sounds of approval, but they seem to be mostly drowned out by the dissenters.
It would not be too difficult to overanalyze this incident. Sports fans tend to be raucous, especially after they have been well lubricated. It is possible the NASCAR crowd would have booed the Second Coming if it came before the big race.
On the other hand, Mrs. Obama has delved into controversy in her pet cause of getting people to eat healthy. Her campaign against childhood obesity, while well intentioned, is being greeted by many people as an attack on their parenting. A lot of two-income households do not have the time or the energy to cook a traditional family dinner where nutrition can be controlled to a certain extent. In too many homes, home delivered fast food or something that can be nuked quickly in the microwave have become the featured dinner. Harried parents are not likely to take very well someone lecturing them about feeding their children properly, especially if they are eschewing playing at the park for lying about with their game boys.
By and large, "It's a sad statement on our political discourse if the booing was indeed directed at Mrs. Obama and Dr. Biden," said ABC News Senior Political Reporter Rick Klein. "They were appearing on behalf of military families, a cause which transcends party lines."

Hey friends,
what did you all get up to today?
Oh that's nice. Me? Not a lot..
just JUMPED OUT OF A HELICOPTER!
No biggie.
Okay let's back up a bit.
We arrived in Lauterbrunnen last night. In the darkness it took a while for us all to realise, we were quite literally in the mountains. I know that sounds a daft thing to say considering it was the Swiss Alps, but I mean we were smack bang standing between huge mountains ...
Picture perfect Switzerland

While the Swiss summer may hold quite warm days, the early mornings are another story. We woke to a very cold room having left the cabin window open the night before… this definitely didn't make getting out of bed an easy task. ...

"The much-admired illustrator Mordicai Gerstein performs a persuasive bit of magic in The First Drawing...[he] uses delicate ink over rough colorful acrylics in a visual echo of the way the fineness of artistic sensibility might have arisen in primitive Stone Age culture"
—The Wall Street Journal
Mordicai Gerstein is the acclaimed illustrator of more than forty-five books, many of which he also wrote. His books are frequently awarded ALA Notable status, and he is the three-time recipient of a New York Times Best Illustrated Book of the Year honor. In 2004, Mordicai was awarded the Caldecott Medal for The Man Who Walked Between the Towers. Mordicai lives in western Massachusetts.

What do you get when you fuse a laptop together with a smart phone? The UMID Viliv S5. The Korean mini-computer has everything a netbook has, only in a very tiny space.
For $599 you could own the cute Viliv S5, but beware; the teeny features make it hard to use and it is still not small enough to stuff inside your pocket. You also need an adapter for the audio and hardware input because it too is miniaturized.

|RE: Lost with sources in CVS
|Wed, 08 Dec 2004 20:55:57 GMT
Hi, That's OK, don't feel bad asking questions ;) And don't feel bad when people say you're clueless if you say it's a mess ;) For Tomcat 5, Tomcat's source is divided into several CVS modules. These are jakarta-tomcat-5, jakarta-tomcat-catalina, jakarta-tomcat-connectors, jakarta-tomcat-jasper, and jakarta-servletapi-5. The last one in the previous list contains the Servlet API classes, so if you want to change the HttpServletResponse interface, that's where you would start. The build script does checkouts as needed, both for Tomcat's own source (the above CVS modules) and dependencies as listed in the build.properties.default file. The checkouts don't use the CVS -C switch, so they won't override any changes you've made. As to your build directory question, you should try it instead of ranting. You'll find the build script fairly intelligent in not removing your changes. Of course, if you run the "clean" Ant target, the directory will be cleaned out.

Ch. 5.5Mature
I lie awake, my face smashed into a pillow long past midnight. Too tired to sleep, and awake enough to pelt myself with anxiety fueled questions. Considering my blizzard-like thoughts, I eventually have accept the fact that I won't be sleeping anytime soon.
I flip over, staring at the ceiling. Was it really just this morning... Yesterday morning?... That I lay here, contemplating the color of the sky? It might as well have been weeks...
Void, other worlds, Hyalus, Stiria, dragons, bridges, madness... What do I do with this information? Easy, I do what I always do. Caution doesn't get answers. Stupidity, on the other hand, does.

Bollinger to Salman Butt, OUT, gone! Full and wide, moved away, chased it, went for an expansive drive, got a thick edge and Haddin dived well to his left to snap a sharp one
Salman Butt c †Haddin b Bollinger 2 (3b 0x4 0x6) SR: 66.66
Bracken to Younis Khan, OUT, drags it onto the stumps, short of a good length outside off, gets a hint of inward movement, Younis plays at it, away from his body, gets a thin edge to clip the off stump
Younis Khan b Bracken 7 (7b 1x4 0x6) SR: 100.00
Clarke to Misbah-ul-Haq, OUT, plumb, tossed up on middle, went for the sweep after three dot balls, tried to get it behind square, it straightened, he missed and was struck on the back pad in line with the stumps. Bowden raised his finger immediately
Misbah-ul-Haq lbw b Clarke 34 (75b 1x4 0x6) SR: 45.33
Hauritz to Ahmed Shehzad, OUT, his patience was tested and finally, when offered some flight, failed to resist the temptation. Landed full on the off stump, went for a mighty slog-sweep over midwicket, it spun in, took the top-edge and stuck safely in the palms of Ferguson at long-on
Ahmed Shehzad c Ferguson b Hauritz 43 (81b 2x4 0x6) SR: 53.08
Bollinger to Shoaib Malik, OUT, looked plumb, nipped back in from the off, he got forward to defend but was struck just in line, didn't get across enough and played with bat really close to pad
Shoaib Malik lbw b Bollinger 27 (33b 1x4 0x6) SR: 81.81
Clark to Kamran Akmal, OUT, kept low and pegged back the offstump, short of a good length bowled at 132 kmph, failed to get his bat down in time and timber!
Kamran Akmal b Clark 1 (5b 0x4 0x6) SR: 20.00
Bollinger to Shahid Afridi, OUT, gone! Big wicket! Short on middle, gets more bounce and is pacy, bowled at 135 kmph, goes for a mighty pull, gets the top edge as it comes on a little too quickly and North takes an easy catch at mid-on
Shahid Afridi c North b Bollinger 40 (40b 4x4 0x6) SR: 100.00
Bracken to Sohail Tanvir, OUT, gone this time! Identical shot, gets the top edge again but is unfortunate it's not Watson under it again, got it much straighter and Hauritz at mid-on shows his team-mate how it's done
Sohail Tanvir c Hauritz b Bracken 9 (13b 1x4 0x6) SR: 69.23
Bollinger to Shoaib Akhtar, OUT, change of pace, slower outside off, tries to swat it over the bowler's head, gets the top edge and Clarke at point takes an excellent catch running backwards
Shoaib Akhtar c Clarke b Bollinger 2 (2b 0x4 0x6) SR: 100.00
Bollinger to Saeed Ajmal, OUT, Bollinger gets five!! The legcutter, bowled at around 135 kmph, landed on a good length on middle and cut away to beat the bat and clip off stump

Christmas Day the Swedish Way
... out recipes we would like to try from the new cookbook we have. Overall, it felt like a lazy Sunday..!
Oh yeah, we went to the Japanese restaurant right by the bus stop called I Love Sushi. The grocery store was closed, and it was the only thing nearby that was open. Christoffer said he has never seen anyone eat there, so we ventured in there to find out why that ...
Historika museet (history museum)
... some really beautiful sparkling things and also really tiny sculptures that had a strong hint of child labor. They also had a bunch of Viking clothes you could try on. I tried on a red dress, and Gabi tried to put on some stuff but they didn't fit him (I think this activity may have been meant for just kids...). He finally found a blue jacket that fit him... And hey, people in modern times wear jackets like that too! And we saw the tag and yeah, it was a jacket left by some ...
... was of costumes used in HBO's Game of Thrones, one of our favorite shows (and my favorite books lately).
Finally, we met up with Deanne's friend Karl, who's in the International Light Association with Deanne. He showed us some of his inventions and gave me a dose of light therapy. He also showed me a first edition copy of a book that Florence Nightingale wrote in 1860 right after the Crimean War. He's quite an interesting and intelligent ...
Loose lips sink ships...
... few though actually, who you meet and you just know from the beginning that they are good people. And I don't mean your average good, I mean at the very soul of their being and everything about them is good. Emanuel, in my opinion, is one of those people. His kindness and generosity extends far beyond that which is expected, and certainly beyond that which is normal in today's kind of narcissistic world. He has a beautiful sense of humor with ...
Saturday 10th May - Västerås

Before we left the town i wanted to see the M�laren once more so we drove down to the port area where there were warehouses and some large boats moored alongside. The road to V�ster�s has some long straight stretches that were apparently put in to allow planes to land in the event that there was a Russian invasion. Sweden ...

It seems unlikely, but this Monday a chain of arts-and-craft shops in the US triggered one of the most controversial rulings over religious freedom and women's health ever seen in the country.
This is the 'Hobby Lobby' ruling, a decision by the Supreme Court to allow a company to stop paying for certain types of contraception in its employees' health insurance – despite the fact that these are included by law in Obamacare - the president's 's landmark healthcare bill.
The decision has been hailed as a victory for Republicans and the religious right, while Democrats and pro-choice organizations have decried the ruling. The American Civil Liberities Union say the decision allows "business owners [to] use their religious beliefs to deny their employees a benefit that they are guaranteed by law," while the laywers for Hobby Lobby called it "an enormous victory for personal freedom."
What is Hobby Lobby?
Hobby Lobby is a chain of arts-and-craft stores owned by a Christian billionaire named David Green. In 2012 they filed a lawsuit against the United States over new health insurance regulations that mean they had to supply emergency contraceptives and intrauterine devices (IUDs) to employees.
What did they want?
To not pay for employees' birth control - specifically Plan B and Ella (two US brands of morning-after pill) and a pair of IUDs (plastic and copper inserts that kill sperm cells before they reach the egg).
Hobby Lobby has said that providing these goes against their religious belief as they constitute abortion - something they define as when a fertilized egg implants itself in the uterus about four weeks after conception.
The company's opponents have pointed out that even under their own definitions, these contraceptive methods don't count as abortion as they all stop eggs from being fertilized in the first place - several weeks before the cells implant in the uterus and start to grow.
Who voted for this?
The Supreme Court - a body composed of nine justices that are appointed for life by the President and confirmed by the Senate. In this ruling five male members voted for the decision and one male member and the three female members voted against it.
The three women justices - Ruth Bader Ginsberg, Sonia Sotomayor, and Elena Kagen - were all appointed by Democratic presidents, and the pro-choice organization NARAL described the ruling as "sexist" - "a direct attack on women and our fundamental rights".
Why is it so controversial?
Opponents of the ruling describe it as a setback for women's rights that also sets worrying precedents regarding the importance of religious beliefs over the law.
Pro-choice activists point out that for women earning the minimum wage the IUD (one of the most effective forms of birth control) costs as much a month's full-time pay - a price that could force women to choose between paying for food and rent or buying contraception.
Civil liberties groups say the ruling will allow other companies to discriminate against the workforce based on their own "sincerely held religious beliefs".
"Suppose an employer's sincerely held religious belief is offended by health coverage of vaccines, or paying the minimum wage, or according women equal pay for substantially similar work?" asked Justice Ginsburg in her criticism of the ruling.
Justice Samuel Alito (who represented the 'yes' majority) made it clear that the ruling couldn't override laws against racial discrimination - but was silent on the issue of discrimination based on sexual orientation.
How can a company have religious beliefs?
The crux of the legislation rests on a concept known as 'corporate personhood' - the idea that corporations or companies can have some of the same rights are individuals.
The idea has been critizicized in the US after a 2010 ruling known as Citizens United allowed corporations (like individuals) to donate as much as they liked to political campaigns.
In the Hobby Lobby decision, the Supreme Court also decided that a 1993 Act that lets Americans ignore federal laws if they "substantially burden religious exercise" also applies to companies - as long as they can demonstrate the law offends their "sincerely held religious beliefs". This has led to objections like this:

So what next - will companies just stop supplying contraception if they don't want to?
No. The ruling applies only to "closely held corporations" – companies for which five or fewer individuals control more than fifty per cent of the stock. However, these make up 90 per cent of all businesses in the US are "closely held" and employ 52 per cent of the country's workforce.
As the Washington Post notes, many large employers (85 per cent) offered contraception coverage even before Obamacare, while the majority of small businesses (96 per cent) will never be forced to offer it because they have fewer than 50 full-time employees.
However, as the Hobby Lobby ruling only requires that businesses demonstrate 'sincere religious beliefs' to be exempt from a law, there is the possibility that all sorts of businesses will now start objecting to certain laws - especially if doing so undermines their political opponents.
No wonder Justice Ginsberg summed up the decision thus: "The court, I fear, has ventured into a minefield."Reuse content

Outlook has a setting to control whether or not a comma can be used as an address separator (the default separator is a semi-colon). It's disabled by default in Outlook (Tools | Options | E-Mail Options | Advanced E-Mail Options), although the same setting in Outlook Express is enabled by default. Personally, when I install Outlook, checking this box is one of the first things I do.
A few years ago we investigated turning this setting on by default. We were unable to do so, because many organizations use the comma in their naming scheme in the directory – "Lastname, Firstname". If we enabled comma as an address separator by default, Outlook would interpret me typing in "Lemson, KC" as two separate addresses, and would try to resolve "Lemson" and "KC" separately. This helps explain why OE has it enabled by default – with OE, you only have to worry about internet e-mail and corporate directories are not as common of a concern.
