US 20040197138 A1Abstract
A mechanical joint is formed from a hollow structure of material that can be shaped so that bringing opposite sides of the external walls forming the hollow together forms a socket. For example, by compressing together opposite external sides of a hollow structure, such as a tube, a socket with a continuous double wall is formed. The socket is configured to provide a snap fit with a moveable member. A flexible member is positioned in the socket and attached to the moveable member, so that the moveable member can be controlled for placement in an out of the socket. The flexible member may also twist to permit the moveable member to be located in any position necessary to allow the moveable member to be engaged in the socket or disengaged from the socket, reducing the need for precise component tolerances. The joint is useful in structures that have multiple configurations. For example, the joint finds application in structures such as portable game goals, where it is desirable for the structure to collapse from an erect position for game play into a collapsed configuration for transport.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0002] The invention relates to a mechanical joint for collapsible structures. U.S. Pat. No. 5,681,231 discloses a collapsible structure, in particular a game goal, with an elbow joint having an arm with a gap therein. A frame member inserts into the gap in a fixed or upright position and is removed from the gap to collapse the structure. A flexible member connected to the frame member and the portion of the elbow having the gap allows the frame member to move into and out of the joint while remaining connected to the overall structure. [0003] U.S. Pat. No. 6,220,776 discloses a corner or straight joint for a collapsible structure with a socket portion that accommodates a moveable member with multiple degrees of motion. In this joint the moveable member is connected with a threaded or otherwise twistable connection to the rod of a heim joint which rotates on a roll pin. The moveable portion moves in and out of the socket portion to erect and collapse the structure, as frame members are attached to the fixed and moveable portions of the joint. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION [0004] A joint according to the invention herein comprises a tube having a wall compressed on itself along a portion of its length. This forms a socket, which is double walled.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF AN EMBODIMENT OF THE INVENTION [0027] For ease of manufacture, a joint according to the invention is preferably formed from a material that can be shaped by hammering or other mechanical manipulation at room temperature. However, those of ordinary skill will recognize that the joint according to the invention can also be formed by other techniques appropriate to the strength, hardness and other characteristics of the material used to form the joint. Such techniques include, but are not limited to heating the material to form it into the desired shape, extrusion techniques and molding techniques. For convenience, the description herein assumes that the material used can be manipulated at room temperature into the shapes disclosed herein. Those of ordinary skill will further recognize that the invention is not limited to joints having the specific shapes disclosed herein, which are provided by way of example and not limitation, as other shapes may be employed which produce the joint according to the invention. [0028]FIG. 1 shows a tube 101 that has a first tube portion 103 with a first outer diameter OD1 and a second tube portion 105 with a larger outer diameter OD2. Between the first tube portion 103 and the second tube portion 105 is a transitional portion 107. The outer diameter of transitional portion 107 gradually changes from the wider outer diameter OD2 of second tube portion 105 to the smaller outer diameter OD1 of first tube portion 103. As noted above, a tube can be formed in this configuration or a tube with an original outer diameter OD1 can be mechanically manipulated into a shape as shown in FIG. 1. [0029]FIG. 2 illustrates a ramming device 201 with a shaft 203 and a generally cone shaped end 205 that can be inserted into a tube having an outer diameter OD1, such as tube 101, and hammered into the tube to cause the tube to expand into the shape shown in FIG. 1. Those of ordinary skill will further recognize that the outer diameters, OD1 and OD2 can be any dimensions suitable for the application. [0030]FIG. 3 illustrates tube 101 from FIG. 1 with its second tube portion 105 and its transitional portion 107 flattened as shown at area 301. FIG. 3 also shows guide holes 303 drilled into the flattened portion 301. The purpose of the guide holes is to assure proper alignment of a shaping punch 401, as shown in FIG. 4, used with a substantially U-shaped die 501, as shown in FIG. 5, to form flattened portion 301 into a socket. [0031] Flattened portion 301 is placed between die 501 and shaping punch 401. Shaping punch 401 in FIG. 4 has guide pins 403 for insertion into guide holes 303. When guides pins 403 are inserted onto guide holes 303 and shaping punch 401 is pressed onto the flattened area 301, area 301 takes on the shape of the U-shaped die and completes being folded onto itself to form a socket portion 601 in the tube, as shown in FIG. 6. Folding the tube onto itself results in a double walled socket which is fully integrated with the tube from which it is formed. Those of ordinary skill will recognize that bringing opposite sides of a hollow structure having a variety of shapes, such as a square, rectangle or circular shape, toward each other such as by compressing, molding or extruding will result in a double walled socket according to the invention. [0032] Preferably, U-shaped die 501 has upwardly extending walls 502. These upwardly extending walls 502 in die 501 cause flattened tube 301 portion to be bent into a double walled socket at a point on the circumference of the tube that is beyond a centerline of the tube when viewed from the tube's end. As a result, when the punch is removed from the die, tension resulting from the curvature of the tube causes the newly formed double walled portion 601 to partially close in on itself, resulting in a socket opening that will create a snug �snap fit� when tubes of the same outer diameter are inserted therein. [0033]FIG. 7 illustrates the double walled portion of the socket in a side view. Since the double walled portion is formed by folding a tube onto itself, the double walled portion is continuous. As discussed above, the presence of upwardly extending walls 502 in die 501 causes the tube to bend at points 702 which are above a centerline on the tube as seen from the side view in FIG. 7. The curvature of the tube causes the width of opening 703 to be less than the maximum inner width of the tube at its centerline 705. As a result, a tube whose outer diameter is approximately the same as the inner diameter of the tube used to form the socket will form a fitted region having a snug �snap fit� with the socket. [0034]FIG. 8 illustrates the various structural features of the socket formed as a result of enlarging the outer diameter of a tube to have a portion larger than its original outer diameter and a transitional portion extending from the wider portion to the original outer diameter and compressing these portions to fold on themselves with the punch and die, as discussed above. The socket 801 in FIG. 8 extends from the original outer diameter portion 803 through a generally spoon shaped concave depression 805 which is open at the top, to a fitted snap fit region 807. The generally spoon shaped concave depression 805 results from bending which occurs in the transition portion when the wider outer diameter portion is folded on itself to form the double walled portion snap fit region 807 of the socket 801. [0035] Concave depression 805 accommodates a flexible member that can be joined to another structural member to be connected through the joint. FIG. 9 shows flexible member 901 as used with socket 801. Flexible member 901 inserts into the concave portion 805 of socket 801 and fastened into the socket. As shown in FIG. 9, flexible member 901 is bolted or screwed in place with bolt which passes through hole 903 in a mount ring 905. Mount ring 905 enhances the structural integrity of the flexible link and prevents the flexible link 901 from ripping away from the bolt connecting the flexible member to the socket 801. Those of ordinary skill will recognize that mount ring 905 could be built into the flexible member, or that the function of the mount ring could be replaced by appropriate reinforcement of the flexible member so that it connects to the socket without tearing under the stresses experienced by the joint. Those of ordinary skill will further recognize that the flexible member can be fastened to the socket by other means, such as gluing a portion of the flexible member to the socket, while remaining within the scope of the invention. According to the invention, it is only necessary that a first end 907 of the flexible member 901 be fastened to the socket 801 in such a manner that it does not fall out of the socket 801 under the anticipated stress, while the second end 909 of the flexible member 901 be free to move into and out of the socket 801. [0036] In use, the second end 909 of flexible member 901 connects to a moveable member 1001 that can move into and out of socket 801 as shown in FIG. 10. Moveable member 1001 is shown as a circular tubular structure, although other shapes can also be used for both the moveable member and the fixed member which forms the socket. Moveable member 1001 has a reduced outer diameter tube end 1003, an alignment portion 1005 and a full outer diameter portion 1007. The reduced outer diameter portion 1003 can be formed by swaging or crushing the entire circumference of a tube having an outer diameter that is the same as full outer diameter potion 1007. Thus, this connection to the joint 801 can be integral with the frame member being joined through the joint. Another advantage of the joint according to the invention is that both the socket 801 and the moveable member 1001 can be integrated with their respective frame members. [0037]FIG. 10 also illustrates alignment portion 1005 built into the moveable member 1001. Alignment portion 1005 is formed by swaging or crushing only a portion of the outer diameter of the tube. A more detailed view of the alignment portion is shown in the side view of FIG. 10A. The advantage to forming the alignment portion 1005 is that it causes the moveable member 1001 always to intersect with the socket 801 in a manner that aligns the moveable member 1001 with the socket 801. This alignment is possible because the flexible member not only moves into and out of the socket, but its flexibility allows it to twist as needed to conform its shape to achieve the alignment as necessary. This alignment aids in maintaining the structural integrity of the joint. This alignment also forms a substantially smooth surface around the circumference of the alignment portion 1005 of moveable member 1001 and socket 801. The proximate end portion 1009 of full outer diameter portion 1007 of the moveable member 1001 is sized to intersect the end portion 1011 of the snap fit section 807 of socket 801. As a result of the alignment accomplished in portion 1005, the outer diameter of section 1007 and the outer diameter of the alignment portion 1005 with snap fit portion 807 are substantially the same, forming a smooth transition between the mechanical joint and the frame member integrated with moveable member 1001. [0038]FIG. 10 also illustrates the connection between flexible member 901 and moveable member 1001. Moveable member 1001 is generally formed of material having a tubular shape or a shape compatible with the shape of socket 801. End 909 of flexible link 901 inserts into the tube as shown in FIG. 10. The length of flexible member that inserts into the tube need only be sufficient to maintain a good connection with the moveable member 1001. As was the case with the connection between the flexible member 901 and the socket 801, the connection between the flexible member 901 and the moveable member 1001 can be made by any method suitable for the stresses of the application, for example by gluing, crimping or bolting. Similarly, if bolting or screwing techniques are used, the flexible member 901 can be reinforced at the connection with the moveable member to enhance its structural integrity either by integrating structure enhancing material into the flexible member or by other means. By way of illustration and not limitation, FIG. 10 shows flexible member 901 connected to the moveable member 1001 using a bolt, preferably reinforced by a mount ring. [0039]FIG. 11 illustrates an example of a flexible member, although those of ordinary skill will recognize that other flexible member implementations can be used while remaining within the scope of the invention. FIG. 11 also illustrates the use of mount rings for the additional purpose of assembling the flexible member. The flexible member 1100 in FIG. 11 has an internal cord 1101 formed, for example, from a solid piece of EPDM rubber. Surrounding the central cord 1101 is a sheathing of hose, such as hot water heater hose 1103. This hot water heater hose protects the rubber core from damage resulting from exposure to ultraviolet radiation and from other mechanical damage that may occur during the remaining assembly steps. Hot water heater hose sheathing 1103 is also useful for its textile reinforcement, which prevents rips and tears from propagating to the entire hose. A reinforcing member, such as mount ring 1105, provides structural integrity to the one end of the flexible member. Similarly, mount ring 1007 provides structural integrity to the other end of the flexible member. These mount rings are typically metal or other reinforcing material that will not tear away from the mounting structure used to attach the flexible member to the socket and moveable member. For example, mount rings 1105 and 1107 are shown with bolt holes 1106 and 1108, for connecting to the socket and moveable member, respectively. The mount rings are swaged or squeezed around the components of the structural member and therefore also function to assist in holding the internal components of the flexible member 1100 together. Often the dimensions of the connection to the socket and the connection to the moveable member differ. FIG. 11 shows spa-flex hose 1109 or other application suitable material used to take up the space between the outer diameter of the assembly and the inner diameter of mount ring 1107. [0040]FIG. 12 illustrates optional additional parts of a joint according to the invention, including a sleeve 1201. As shown in FIG. 12, two frame members 1203 and 1205 are engaged such that they are linked together, most typically in an assembled position. Those of ordinary skill will recognize, however, that the joint according to the invention merely links to members in either of two positions, a first position in which the moveable member is engaged in the socket and a second position in which the movable member is not engaged in the socket. Although the first position suggests an assembled state and the second position suggests a collapsed state, the joint according to the invention can be used in circumstances where either position in a particular structure represents an assembled or collapsed state. [0041] Returning to FIG. 12, sleeve 1201 is shown between up stops 1207 and down stops 1209 such as a double spring detent. Another detent spring not shown protrudes out the opposite side of the joint. One such device is a model D181 detent made by Valco Valley Tool & Die. In the open position, the detent spring 1209 prevents lock sleeve 1201 from going out of position when the moveable member is disengaged from the socket. The up stop, 1207 prevents the lock sleeve from moving out of position in the opposite direction. A down stop 1211 prevents lock sleeve 1201 from dropping past the socket on the opposite end. [0042]FIG. 13 illustrates conditions when lock sleeve 1201 is engaged. As FIG. 13 illustrates, lock sleeve 1202 slides down over the detent spring to form a relatively consistent outer diameter surface in the engaged position. [0043]FIG. 14 illustrates an L-shaped frame member 1401 with a socket portion 1403 integrated into one end and a moveable member 1405 integrated into a second end. The moveable member will move in and out of a socket when the L-shaped member is assembled with other members into a frame. Any combination of sockets and moveable members can be integrated into frame members to be linked to other frame members. In addition sockets and moveable members can be formed as individual units to be connected to frame members by any suitable means. Moveable member 1405 is formed with a smaller outer diameter than the frame element 1407. A rubber stopper 1409 in the moveable member provides additional strength. [0044]FIG. 15 illustrates one possible arrangement for forming a game goal, such as a lacrosse goal, shown generally at 1500. FIG. 15 is by way of illustration and not limitation, as those of ordinary skill will recognize that an almost infinite variety of such devices can be formed using a joint according to the invention. The goal in FIG. 15 has four elbows 1501, 1502, 1503 and 1504, each having a frame element extending from each side of the elbow in a direction appropriate to the shape of the goal. Preferably, the frame members are integrated with the elbows, although the elbows and frame members can be formed separately and connected together without departing from the scope of the invention. Two straight members 1505 and 1506 are also used in the structure. Frame element 1507 extending from elbow 1501 is used as part of a top crossbar of goal 1500 and is configured at its end to form a moveable member according to the invention 1511 that moves into and out of a socket portion according to the invention 1513 at an end of a fixed frame member 1515. An exploded view of this arrangement is shown in FIG. 16. Member 1515 forms a second portion of the crossbar and is connected or integral with elbow 1502. Both elbows 1501 and 1502 have upright portions 1509 and 1517 extending therefrom. These move into and out of socket portions 1523 and 1525, respectively, in the engaged and disengaged positions, depending on whether the goal is configured for use or collapsed for transport. As illustrated in FIG. 15, these upright portions each have a moveable member 1519 and 1521, respectively, at their ends. In this way, FIG. 15 illustrates that according to the invention a structural member can have the same kind of joint portion at either end, as shown by the moveable portions 1511 and 1519 at the ends of both frame elements extending from elbow 1501, or different joint portions at either end, as shown by the socket portion 1513 at the end of one frame element 1515 extending from elbow 1502 and the moveable portion 1521 at the end of the other frame element 1517 extending from elbow 1502. Elbows 1503 and 1504 have upright frame elements 1527 and 1529 with socket ends 1523 and 1525, respectively. Ground frame elements 1531 and 1533 are also connected to or integral with elbows 1503 and 1505, as shown in FIG. 15. Frame elements 1531 and 1532 connect to straight frame members 1505 and 1506, which are used as ground members, through bracket joints 1535 and 1537. The straight members connect at a point 1539 required for the shape of a lacrosse goal through another bracket joint. [0045]FIG. 17 illustrates a bracket joint 1701 which acts as a hinge that can be make a straight connection or a connection in a wide variety of positions. A flexible member 1703, such as a flexible member previously disclosed herein or other flexible member as may be appropriate to the application, extends between end portions of the members 1505 and 1506. Reinforcing rings 1705 and 1707 may also be used. Bolt holes 1709 and 1711 are used with generally U-shaped bracket 1717 and bolts 1715 and 1717 to maintain the bracket joint in the desired position. After the assembly is placed into the desired configuration by allowing the flexible member to be a straight connection between the frame elements, as shown at 1535 and 1527 or bending the flexible member to the desired position, as shown at point joint 1539, bracket 1713 is screwed to the joint with bolts 1715 and 1717 through holes 1707 and 1709 to hold the joint in position. [0046]FIG. 18 illustrates the bracket joint 1701 in the assembled condition. [0047]FIG. 19 illustrates the goal of FIG. 15 in a collapsed position. Note that in the collapsed configuration straight ground members 1505 and 1506 fold toward elbows 1503 and 1504 thereby minimizing the size of the apparatus when collapsed. The goal thus folds into an easily transported L-shape.

How to create believable physics using C#.	Download source files - 80.7 Kb Download demo project - 38.9 Kb Introduction
After reading the great article 'Advanced Character Physics' [1], I realized that, contrary to my earlier belief, creating believable physics on a computer isn't overly complicated. In fact, it's rather simple and isn't especially CPU-hungry neither. As I figured this might be an interesting topic for some developers, I put together these projects and this article for CodeProject.
To be able to compile and use the projects, you'll need the managed extensions for Directx9 [2]. You might need to perform an extra step after installing the DirectX9 SDK. Please refer to the readme.txt that comes with the DirectX9 SDK. The project ParticleSystem depends upon DirectX9 for some basic operations on vectors and matrices. The test application depends on DirectX9 more heavily as it uses DirectX9 to visualize the particle-constraint system.
Once you have the managed extensions for DirectX9, it should be easy to compile the projects.
You should see a parachuting box not unlike the picture above. There are simple commands to move the viewpoint as well as change some parameters of the particle-constraint system.
Arrow-keys: Moves the viewpoint. A: Makes gravity vector pointing downward. B: Makes gravity vector pointing upward. S: Shakes the particles. K: Increase the strength of the wind (that affects the parachute). L: Decrease the strength of the wind (that affects the parachute). The code in the test project is close to awful as I only patched the DirectX9 wizard generated code just enough so I could view the particle-constraint system. The interesting code is in the ParticleSystem project.
How to create a simple particle-constraint system
Let's assume you want to create a very simple system with only one small box in it.// Begin a transaction
ParticleSystem.Transaction lTransaction = ps.GetTransaction();
// Adds a global constraint to the system (to make sure that the box
// doesn't fall and fall and fall)
lTransaction.AddGlobalConstraint(new AxisAlignedBox(
new Vector3(-10, -15, -10),
new Vector3(10, 15, 10)));
// Set the gravity vector of the system
ps.Gravity = new Vector3(0, -1, 0);
// Creates a stick-constraint factory (since we want our box to be created
// using stiff stick-constraints)
Tools.ITwoParticleConstraintFactory lStickConstraintFactory =
new Tools.StickConstraintFactory();
// Create the box at position (0,0,0), with mass 10.0 and side-length 1.0
Tools.CreateBox(
lStickConstraintFactory,
lTransaction);
// Commit the added particles and constraints to the system
lTransaction.Commit();
If you want to test what the example looks like, just replace the code in the function InitializeParticleSystem with the code above. Also you have to add the row windEffect = null;
Now let's say you wish to attach a chain to the box and the non moving particle. The code would then look as this:// Begin a transaction
Particle[] lBoxParticles = Tools.CreateBox(
// Create a single particle
Particle lParticle = new Particle(1.0f, new Vector3(0.0f, 5.0f, 0.0f));
// Make the particle non-moving
lParticle.Immoveable = true;
// Add the particle the system
lTransaction.AddParticle(lParticle);
// Create a chain between the single particle and a box-particle
Tools.CreateChain(
lParticle,
lBoxParticles[0],
For a more complex example, see the parachuting box code in the ParticleSystemTestApplication.
A tiny introduction to the ParticleSystem project
The project is named ParticleSystem. A better name would be ParticleConstraintSystem because that's essentially what it is. The design goal of ParticleSystem was primarily to make it easy for a developer to add new constraints, effects and global constraints classes. Also, I wanted to make it reasonably easy to create "experiments". Performance hasn't been a primary concern. You add instances of particles, constraints, effects and global constraints to a ParticleSystem using the Transaction object. You get an instance of a Transaction object by calling GetTransaction() on an instance of a ParticleSystem. Remember to commit. To generate the next frame, you call TimeStep(). You can create own constraints, effects and global constraints by implementing the required interface. For instance, to create a constraint, the object has to implement IConstraint which only has one method: Apply(). A reasonable question is what should a constraint do when it gets a call to Apply()? It should check if the constraint is invalid. If its invalid, then it should move the particles that's part of the constraint so that the constraint becomes valid again. As an example, take a look at the StickConstraint; if the particles are too far away, it pulls them together until they are at the correct distance. If they are too close, it pushes them away until they are at the correct distance. It also looks at the mass of the particles and moves differently depending on how much they weigh. Please see 'Advanced Character Physics' [1] for a better insight of how to create constraints. The Tool-class contains a lot of static methods intended to make it easier for a developer. Exercises for the interested reader:
This is of course an ironical nudge towards the impossible 'exercises for the interested reader' that are so often found in student literature.
Implement a 'real' parachute. Instead of having a fixed wind blowing upwards, the particles in the parachute could be affected by a wind that's dependent on average velocity of the particles in the parachute. That is, the faster they are going down, the stronger the wind is blowing upwards. Implement a sailboat game. TODO:
Add NUnit tests Improve the documentation and provide a NDoc project Reengineer the gravity to be a IEffect instead of an intrinsic part of the ParticleSystem-class. This to allow systems where you have a centre of gravity or many gravity sources. Implement collision detection between particles and triangles. This would enable some very cool things such as; solid bodies bouncing against each other, trampolines and friction. Acknowledgments
Thomas Jakobsen - for without his great article [1], I doubt that I ever would have started playing around with imaginary particles and constraints (and thus leading a lesser life). Also, I have shamelessly robbed code from his article when building ParticleSystem.

Hmmm #2 or Compiller error Batishchev1-Feb-04 13:32 I get some problems with compilation..
First of all, i have VS 7.0 (not 8,0 as your)
in *.sln Format Version to "7.00" (not 8.00)
and in *.csproj SchemaVersion to "1.0" (not 2.0)
but now, on open any *.cs i get a lot of 'Object type cannot be converted to target type' errors, but it's not main problem..
On running (compiled myself) ParticleSystemTestApplication.exe every time i see:
An exception has occured. The sample must exit.
-2146232832 (Unknow) at Microsoft...Device.DrawPrimitives(PrimitiveType primitiveType, Int32 startVertex, Int32 primitiveCount)
at Render() [d3dtriangle.cs: line 283]
at Render3DEnv.() [d3dapp.cs: line 988]
at FullRender() [d3dapp.cs: line 890]..
What i need to do? any ideas?
PS Sorry for poor english - i'm from russia When using email don't bother people with spam letters.
If spammer bothers you, politely ask him to stop.
If he does not stop, destroy him at all costs
hmmm RimRimRim29-Dec-03 7:12 compiled file crashes.
couldn't compile until // Make sure to allow multithreaded apps if we need them
//presentParams.ForceNoMultiThreadedFlag = !isMultiThreaded;
was removed, then it ran nice.
d3dapp.cs(495,9): error CS0117: 'Microsoft.DirectX.Direct3D.PresentParameters' does not contain a definition for 'ForceNoMultiThreadedFlag'
what's that line doing?
Re: hmmm Mårten R30-Dec-03 4:54 As I am no DirectX expert I'm not quite sure what that line does (it was generated by the DirectX wizard). It looks like though some kind of optimization for applications that aren't multithreaded.
However, I have done the change to the project suggested by Bill Seddon (added the compilation flag 'DX9' to the test project) and sent it to CodeProject. This should fix the problem you described above as well, as the line was wrapped in a #if ... #endif:
#if (DX9)
// Make sure to allow multithreaded apps if we need them
presentParams.ForceNoMultiThreadedFlag = !isMultiThreaded;
As I can't do changes directly to the document I don't know exactly when changes will be on the site. It should be visible in the change history of the document when it happens though.
DirectX SDK Mårten R27-Dec-03 5:05 I hope that the dependency on DirectX 9 wont cause you too much grievance. It might be possible (though I haven't tested this) to download only the DirectX 9.0b runtime and run dxsetup with the command-line parameter: /installmanageddx thus saving yourself a whooping 186 megabyte download.
Also, I hope that some find the article interesting. Don't forget to check out http://www.ioi.dk/Homepages/thomasj/publications/gdc2001.htm as its an interesting read.
Re: DirectX SDK Bill Seddon28-Dec-03 1:08 Thought it worth confirming that your suggestion of using the /InstallManagedDX does work. However you have to download dx90b_sdk_devruntime.exe rather than the web download offered on the main DirectX page.
Once you use this version, a conditional compilation flag "DX9" has to be added to the test project in the attached source to prevent a compile error from occuring when DirectX v9 is used.

Wrote for The OklahomanFollow on TwitterFacebookTwitterPinterestEmailprintcommentCollege football is entering a brand new world two seasons from now, with four teams battling for the national title in a three-game playoff. Those four teams will be selected by a committee, the makeup and size of which is yet to be determined.What's the best way to piece together the people who will get the first chance to make history in 2014?To put it simply: Make it big and make it diverse. College football is rid of the BCS and its shady, unexplained computer formulas and the Harris poll filled with its undereducated, unprepared voters.The goal of the new committee should be to fix those problems, but any committee faces problems of its own.Admitted or not, everyone has biases. Those will be on full display for any committee member whose résumé will be picked apart the second they're named one of the lucky few to select college football's elite.Balance it out. A big committee full of people from different regions possessing different viewpoints is the best way to account for those biases and satisfy the paranoid masses that obsess over college football.Former coaches? You're in. Welcome, Barry Switzer.Conference administrators? You're in, too.Current coaches? Sorry, you're out now. Too close for comfort.Athletic directors? You're in.Media members? Welcome. You'll be heavily vetted, but the best of the bunch may be the most objective members of the entire panel.Bring in folks from the West Coast. Bring plenty from the East Coast. Bring in faces from the Midwest. Those conference administrators and athletic directors? A few from major-conference teams and a few from the Sun Belt and WAC better get a chance to have their voices heard.But, David, that's a poll, not a committee!Yeah, it is. Who cares? It's a poll with 25-40 people who know exactly what they're talking about and are well aware of the responsibility and time requirements for what they're undertaking. Ballots won't be hastily put together on a late Saturday night to be released on a Sunday afternoon.Committee members must be required somehow to watch games from coast to coast. How do you mandate or monitor that? Any programmers know how to make an iPad app that tracks what's being watched on a cable box or on the iPad itself? Just an idea. The stats for that are going public. Don't want to watch games? Prepare to have folks campaign to get you off the committee.Three times a year (October, November, and finally, December), on a Monday conference, the committee meets in person and discusses the past month of football. Committee members file a public ballot and each month, the top four teams (and only those four teams) are released to the public. Media members on the committee? Congratulations. You've just won three must-read columns per season from inside the committee meeting room.At the end of the season, consider the conference champions, but above all, give me the four best teams. Two teams from a conference can get in, sure. But if a team outside that top four owns the conference title hardware that season, tough luck for a team from that conference inside the top four. Better luck next year. You had your chance.Transparency was missing from plenty of the computer polls. It'll be present with the committee. No one will have a weighted voice. Everyone on the committee would have a vote, and ballots would be balanced from a variety of perspectives.That's how it should be done.

Rival of Uganda's Museveni challenges presidential poll result | Daily Mail Online
KAMPALA, March 1 (Reuters) - One of the candidates who sought to end Ugandan President Yoweri Museveni's thirty years in power in last month's presidential vote filed a petition on Tuesday seeking to nullify Museveni's victory due to widespread irregularities.
Besigye, who has challenged Museveni and lost in three previous elections, also challenged the election results in 2001 and 2006. Although justices agreed that there had been vote rigging, they said it had not been enough to affect the overall result.

Hi! :) My name is Sara, I'm 29 years old. I live in a little town near Rome, in the country where I was born and that is in my heart, Italy. I love fashion, art, craft, nature. I love art since I was a little girl and I graduated in art school, where I learned a bit of industrial design and learned to paint. What fascinates me is the theory of colors, motions that you can give away and try throught them.
By the time I discovered that the canvas are not for me and I decided to dedicate myself to the applied arts.
From 2007 I have passion for polymer clay jewelry. After the degree (costume and fashion) I dedicate all my time to design my jewellery and little home decors.

Global benchmark crude prices rose in February for the first time in eight months, rebounding from an almost 50 percent loss in 2014 as U.S. production surged to a 30-year high. Sandstorms disrupted Iraqi exports while cold weather in the U.S. and a drought in Brazil bolstered consumption, according to Goldman Sachs. “The lack of a meaningful build in the past few months leaves risk to our forecast for oil prices remaining at $40 a barrel for two quarters skewed to the upside,” Goldman analysts including Damien Courvalin in New York wrote in the report. “Weather has played a great part in keeping crude off the market.”
Price ReboundWest Texas Intermediate crude, the U.S. benchmark, rose as high as $54 a barrel last month on speculation a recovery in demand was helping shrink a global glut amid a slowdown in U.S. drilling. The April contract settled at $50 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange. Brent crude closed at $58.53 in London after touching $63 a barrel in February.
Weather, violence or sanction-related supply disruptions in Iraq, Libya and Iran removed 885,000 barrels a day from the global market in January and February relative to December, according to the bank. Winter consumption also led to stronger-than-expected demand from the Middle East to the U.S., it said, predicting global consumption growth of 1.35 million barrels a day in 2015. Weather ChangesThese bullish conditions may not last as Libyan disruptions peak while a return to normal weather in Iraq may spur a recovery in exports, according to Goldman. At the same time, Russia, Brazil, Saudi Arabia and the U.S. may continue to boost output. The end of winter may lead to a deceleration in demand growth, it said.

Work-out gear designed for pregnant women can reduce 'bump bounce' | Daily Mail Online
Special work-out gear designed for pregnant women can reduce 'bump bounce' by HALF (and it works even when you run!)
Average bump movement while wearing generic fitness clothes was 6.2cm
In contrast, the average movement was 3.8cm while wearing specialist gear
The study is the first to test pregnancy sportswear against standard clothing
Published: 07:32 EDT, 31 December 2018 | Updated: 08:49 EDT, 31 December 2018
Sportswear designed for pregnant women can reduce 'bump bounce' by half – even when running.
Portsmouth University researchers found the average bump movement in pregnant women wearing generic fitness clothes was 6.2cm.
In comparison, expectant mothers who wore specialist fitness gear, which can cost up to £60 for leggings, saw movements of just 3.8cm.
The study is the first to test specialised pregnancy sportswear against standard fitness clothing sold on the high street.
Portsmouth University researchers found the average bump movement in pregnant women wearing generic fitness clothes was 6.2cm (models wearing FittaMamma)
The team of biomechanic researchers, led by Professor Joanna Wakefield Scurr, has for years tested breast bounce in bras for lingerie manufacturers and the military.
But this was the first time they have been asked to test clothing's ability to reduce the bounce and movement of a pregnancy bump during exercise.
Professor Wakefield Scurr said: 'Even though it was a small scale study, the findings are compelling and statistically significant.'
Her colleague, Sophie Rej, who carried out the tests behind the study, said: 'Fitness wear is an evolving market.
'I walked into hospital but never walked out again':... Injection that stops the onslaught of Alzheimer's could be... When tattoo removal goes WRONG: Customers share horrifying... Half of middle-aged patients eligible for free NHS 'health...
'And new maternity fitness wear brands are emerging to meet the changing needs of a woman's body during pregnancy.
'Our tests on FittaMamma specialist maternity fitness wear reduced bounce of the bump in all directions by 48 per cent.
'This suggests this clothing might help women overcome common barriers to exercise, such as pregnancy-related pain.'
The clothing did not have an effect on women's balance, joint movement or muscle activity, according to the results which were not published in a journal.
In comparison, expectant mothers who wore specialist fitness gear, which can cost up to £60 for leggings, saw movements of just 3.8cm
The study is the first to test specialised pregnancy sportswear against standard fitness clothing sold on the high street (pictured FittaMamma models)
Exercising during pregnancy is safe for babies and can cut a woman’s chance of needing a Caesarean section by a tenth, said researchers last July.
Mothers-to-be who do gentle exercise such as aerobics, walking or using a bike machine, and eat a healthy diet are more likely to deliver their baby naturally, suggested evidence from 12,500 women in 16 countries.
Around one in four births in the UK are by Caesarean which, although regarded as very safe, can carry a risk of complications.
These include infections in new mothers, excessive bleeding and potential damage to surrounding organs.
There are also risks to the baby, include breathing problems, although these usually improve within a few days.
Previous research has shown that while nearly half pregnant women take some form of exercise, very few do enough to meet health guidelines.
NHS guidelines recommend all healthy pregnant women should aim for 30 minutes exercise on at least five days a week to benefit themselves and their baby.
However, the intensity, duration and frequency of exercise all tend to tail off or stop altogether for most women once they're in their second trimester.
Pregnancy can cause lower back ache and pelvic girdle pain. Supporting the bump and reducing the amount of bounce can alleviate this.
The co-founders of Sussex-based FittaMamma, Deborah Hazeldean and Alexandra McCabe, described the results as being 'wonderful'.
Ms McCabe said: 'It fully vindicates what we believed, and we are hoping this will empower more women to keep exercising through their pregnancies.
'The benefits of staying active are compelling and it's a dreadful shame so many women stop exercising once they become pregnant.
'Our aim is to remove the barriers to pregnancy fitness so women can continue to exercise with confidence and support.'
The four women taking part in the study were four-five months' pregnant and their average age was 32.
In a series of experiments, they were asked to stand, walk briskly and run while wearing the FittaMamma clothes or the 'standard' wear.
The standard wear the women were asked to exercise in consisted of Blooming Marvellous leggings and a tank top from H&M.
All of the women had taken part in some form of exercise before becoming pregnant and most were keen to continue.
The participants rated the level of support for the back provided by the FittaMamma clothes at 8.25 out of 10, compared to 3.5 for the 'standard' fitness wear.
Support for the hips and pelvis scored 8.75 for the specialist gear, compared to 3.25 in the comparison vest and leggings.
Following the experiments, all four of the women said they felt more confident when their bump was supported.

4.0 out of 5 stars Simple and Useeful Camera Protector
I found this product very useful; it is ideal for those occasions whern you get caught out by a sudden downpour. It takes up very little space in the camera bag, and can be fitted to the camera very quicky. When on the camera it does not hinder the user too much.

My long search is now over thanks to this product. The cover is very easy to use and does "as it says on the tin'. I've been so impressed by it I have now ordered another one for my other camera, what more can I say.

3.0 out of 5 stars Does the job., 10 Mar 2012

I like this product for all the obvious reasons of protecting a camera from the rain, but one hindrance was that when using my Nikon D5100, I like to put the screen out to the side when filming extreme sports but the cover only allows the screen to be protected when it is in the standard place. Slightly annoying, but if you have a normal screen it's a worthwile purchase.

This item is not compatible with all cameras listed.Your camera MUST have a flash mount for it to work, otherwise its just a bag.Returned both mine, no refund received (plus I paid for postage). �21 out of pocket.
