Abstract: According to the invention, a system and an apparatus to use the One-Touch button on a mobile hand-held device to generate one time passwords (OTP) are disclosed. Components of this system comprise: a mobile hand-held device, a built-in One-Touch button on the mobile device, a Global Authentication Server, and an OTP Generation engine installed and ran on the mobile device. The mobile device user only needs to push the One-Touch button and an OTP is generated. The OTP is generated on the mobile device by the OTP generation engine after a secure key exchange process is performed between the remote Global Authentication Server and the mobile device. The mobile device is registered to use online web services that recognize the OTP through the Global Authentication Service. Online web services require that the user enter a combination of the user's known password and OTP for identity assurance.

Abstract: According to the invention, a system and a method to use Authentication Authority (AA) Web services to authenticate users using non-reusable and non-reversible one-time identity (OTI) codes are disclosed. Components of this system comprise: Gateway Authority (GA), Authentication Authority (AA), Authentication Client(AC), and Authentication Handler (AH). The function of the GA is to register, manage and delegate authentication services to AA. Furthermore, the GA is also responsible for describing and publishing its AA Web service to the industry's Web Service Registry. The function of the AA is to register, manage and authenticate user's identity. The function of the AC is to generate OTI codes on the client's machine and send these codes to the business application server for authentication. The function of the AH is to enable the business application server to process OTI codes, compose authentication requests, and communicate with the AA to authenticate users.

Abstract: An exercise bicycle is disclosed comprising: a frame; energy absorbing structure rotated on the frame about a first shaft; a transmission for free wheeling a second shaft using at least one foot pedal, for rotatably connecting the first shaft and the second shaft, for rotating a roller eccentrically through a predetermined orbit relative to a third shaft and for rotatably connecting the third shaft to free the second shaft; a pivot arm which is pivotally mounted at one end to the frame and which has an opposite end which is adapted to be pulled by the human hand; and yoke structure for coupling the arm to the roller such that reciprocating motion of the arm is translated to rotation of the third shaft.
