Abstract: A composting apparatus and method utilizing a vessel for receiving organic material which is rotatably supported. In a preferred embodiment, the vessel has a corrugated body to move and agitate the material. In another embodiment, the vessel is fabricated from large containers, such as refuse containers, secured end-to-end at their top ends. The vessel is rotated by a drive wheel engaging a peripheral track on the exterior of the vessel.

Abstract: An exercise device having a stand adapted to support a bicycle. The stand has a wheel support which permits side-to-side pivotal motion of the support and bicycles. A roller engages the rear wheel of the bicycle and is in driving relationship through a clutch with the input shaft of an AC induction device connected to a power indicating device. The indication device operates to generate electricity when a predetermined pedal speed is achieved. In another embodiment the exercise device is a dedicated stationary device in which motion may be imparted to the input shaft by pedal crank operation and by manually pivotable handle bars.
