...desk has two parts: a table with adjustable height--low for when you're sitting, high for when you're walking or standing, superhigh for when you need to rest your chin on the wrist pad--and the treadmill, which is operated by buttons on the desk. It's nifty, simple and about $5,000 total, so some people have MacGyvered setups like it on their own. The first thing it does after you turn it on is ask your weight, which is a little confrontational. It then asks your weight every time...

...lead would be short-lived, lasting only two minutes before an RPI power play led to the equalizer.The following two penalties taken 17 seconds apart were too much for the Crimson to withstand. Hoyle kept the game tied with several saves, but Lane Caffaro knocked in a wrist shot at 17:19 to give Union the 2-1 lead. The rest of the period was scoreless, thanks to Hoyle’s 20 saves in the frame.Although Harvard took four of the first five shots in the third period, it was the Dutchmen who doubled their lead, as Luke Cain...
