  Elizabeth Stride - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
Elizabeth Stride is believed to be the third victim of the notorious unidentified serial killer Jack the Ripper, who killed and mutilated prostitutes in the Whitechapel area of London during the late summer and autumn of 1888.
Stride's body was discovered close to 1:00 in the early morning of Sunday, September 30, 1888, lying on the ground in Dutfield's Yard, off Berner Street (since renamed Henriques Street) in Whitechapel.
At 5 ft 5 in (165 cm), Stride was around 4 to 5 inches (10 to 12.5 cm) taller than the average for Whitechapel women of the era—although Mary Jane Kelly was even taller.

 Stride of an array - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In computer programming, the stride of an array (also increment or step size) refers to the number of locations in memory between successive array elements, measured in bytes or in units of the size of the array's elements.
Unit stride arrays are generally more efficient than non-unit stride arrays, due to the effects of caching.
There are at least two reasons arrays may have a stride larger than their elements' width in bytes.

 Stride - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Stride is a type of piano playing, used primarily in jazz.
The pianist's left hand plays a four-beat pulse with a bass note on the first and third beat, and a chord on the second and fourth beats, while the right hand plays (usually improvising) melodies and harmonies.
The name "stride" comes from the "striding" left-hand movement which characterizes the style.

 Stride Time Dynamics   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
To insure that these dynamical measures were independent of the average stride time or the stride time variability, we studied the first 256 points of each subject's time series (after the 60 second ``start-up'' period) by first subtracting the mean and dividing by the standard deviation.
Stride Time Correlations: To further study the temporal structure of the stride time dynamics (independent of the overall variance), we also applied detrended fluctuation analysis (DFA) (11,18) to each subject's stride time time series.
This region was chosen as it provides a statistically robust estimate of stride time correlation properties that are most independent of finite size effects (length of data) (17) and because it has been shown to be sensitive to the effects of neurological disease and aging in older adults (10).

 Perfecting The Stride
When opened or closed, the stride should put them in a position where their shoulders make a line pointing at the pitcher.
If the batter's weight shifts forward during the stride, they will not be able to keep their hands back and will not be able to get their weight into the pitch when they swing.
Many young hitters point their front toe at the pitcher when they stride usually because they want to start swinging the bat before their stride foot lands.

 Economy hits its stride; Fed drags its feet
Such is the dilemma of seeing the economy finally hit a decent stride, but sustaining the low interest rates that have been, and will continue to be, a tailwind to economic progress.
The latest Fed mantra is the notion of maintaining low interest rates for a considerable period, an assurance that the Fed will not be in any hurry to boost interest rates at risk of jeopardizing the economic rebound.
While acknowledgment of the economic improvement is warranted, pledging to maintain historically low interest rates despite a robust economic expansion requires ignoring something, whether it is price levels, the sustainability of growth, or the job market outlook.
