She wasn’t searching for a child’s gift, though; she was thinking of herself ... and getting rich. In December, she recalled, an old, scruffy teddy bear was auctioned at Christie’s auction house in London for more than $70,000. The bear, made by the well-known German stuffed animal firm, Steiff, dated to the early 1900s. The bear, colored an unusual shade of blue, was a one-of-a-kind and just had to be bought by a collector who owned examples of nearly everything made by Steiff. There are approximately 50 million collec­ tors in the United States, according to Howard E. Fischer, the publisher of Treasure Chest, a collectors’ newspaper based out of New York City.

  • Physiological and Perceptual Responses at Submaximal And
    Physiological and perceptual responses at submaximal and maximal capacity in six modes of exercise by Brian Jerome Sharkey, Jr A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Physical Education Montana State University © Copyright by Brian Jerome Sharkey, Jr (1993) Abstract: This study was designed to compare maximum capacity (VO2max) and ventilatory threshold (VT) for leg only and arm plus leg exercise [leg: treadmill (TM), cycle ergometer (CE), stairclimber (SC), and arm leg combined: Schwinn AirDyne (AD), NordicTrack cross-country ski simulator (NT), and NordicRow rower (NR) ]. It was anticipated that the inclusion of the increased muscle mass of the upper-body would augment the leg alone V02max, and alter the VT as well. Eight untrained female volunteers were used as subjects. VO2max was elicited using incremental protocols designed to cause volitional fatigue within 20 minutes. Repeated measures ANOVA was used for data analysis (P<0.05). Differences were only noted between the highest and lowest VO2max means (AD and NR, 2.62 and 2.33 liters/min respectively). No differences were found in the maximum heart rate or relative perceived exertion (RPE) measurements. Significant differences in oxygen consumption at the VT were: CE (1.31 liters/min) vs TM (1.64 liters/min), AD (1.62 liters/min), NR (1.65 liters/min) and NT (1.79 liters/min). When grouped arm-leg combined VT's were significantly higher than those of the leg alone exercises (1.68 vs. 1.46 L/min respectively). Significant differences noted when VT was expressed as a percentage of VO2max were: CE (53%) vs.
