A pair of retaining bands connect the opposite temples of each of the eyeglasses, so that when a user dons one of the pairs of eyeglasses, the other hangs against their person, thereby being protected, secured and readily available. A bracket is mounted to the fore end of the stock to allow the legs of the bipod to be pulled clear of the channels and then rotated down. For each set of contemporaneous frames in time sequence order, the main layer of each keyframe is compressed using an inter-frame compression technique. In one embodiment accumulating points includes accumulating awards.

The invention described herein provides a method and apparatus for document processing that efficiently separates and interrelates single modalities, such as text, handwriting, and images. The outward facing surfaces of the soundboard and head-plate are provided with a decorative appearance such as by etching or sanding a pattern thereon. The handheld device can communicate with a server to download the customer information onto the handheld device and to upload from the handheld device current customer information data obtained from a customers sales visit to a server. Constructing magnetic system as two permanent magnets which are aligned at their analogous poles, and placing optical fiber in a throughhole, the throughhole being formed by the facing grooves made in said analogous poles of permanent magnets, ensure optimization of the design of optical fiber probe, the body of said optical fiber probe having limited dimensions. A plurality of support flanges are fastened to each interior member and corresponding side member for additional structural support.

The present invention pertains to techniques for increasing the available illumination light, increasing the resolution, and optimizing the spectrum of optical inspection systems. A computing device can receive instructions for a GPC, including an instruction IA associated with a first portion of a canvas. The mounting system may include a housing having a top plate and a bottom plate, the top plate being disposed a distance above the bottom plate. The electronic appliance control also preferably records a specific series of diagnostic steps taken to verify replacement of only an actual faulty component. The graphical programming or modeling environments provide mechanisms for the handshaking configuration of graphical programsmodels before the graphical programsmodels are executed in the graphical programmingmodeling environments.

A device for maintaining the shape of footwear, both at the tip of a shoe as in the stiffener through a tension force against the tip and stiffener of the shoe, the same caused by the device snap-fitting and its natural tensioning element curved, is provided. Therefore data relating to a terminal type and a terminal identification are stored in a device configuration register. The mechanism includes a single, spring-loaded locking pin arranged to lock the trigger in both the ON and the OFF positions.

Presented herein are system, method, and apparatus for displaying pictures on a display. DOD produced by the method of the present invention can be effectively used as an antibacterial agent because it has a wide spectrum of antibacterial activity against various microorganisms. A method of making the sol-gel solution is by mixing suitable sol-gel precursors to form the solution, stabilizing the solution by adding at least one baseline stabilization reagent, deactivating the solution by adding at least one surface deactivation reagent to the solution, and reacting the solution in the presence of at least one catalyst. The streamlined contour is generally conical in some of the embodiments. The motor rotationally and reciprocally drives the nozzle holder to sequentially position each of the nozzles in alignment with an inlet port of mass spectrometer. In an example, the system may choose a service vehicle from a base station closest to or within the shortest driving time to the disabled vehicle.

A system and method for providing redundant source synchronous communication links. Problems involved are solved by a curing composition characterized by including an organic polymer having one or more silicon-containing groups capable of cross linking by forming siloxane bonds, a metal carboxylate andor carboxylic acid, and a silicon compound having a hetero atom on the carbon atom in the \u03b1 or \u03b2 position with respect to the silicon atom. A conductive member is provided to be electrically in contact with a conductive layer formed of a long-sized substrate.

A system and method for selecting and presenting advertisements based on natural language processing of voice-based inputs is provided. The protective cap is mounted on the distal end of the endoscope providing a protected surface for retaining the stent. The threaded median portion has a core, which is conical, with a diameter becoming increasingly larger from the distal end of the threaded median portion to the proximal end thereof, and thread, which has a constant diameter smaller than the diameter of the thread of the proximal threaded portion. The switch device determines an extent of displacement of the actuator and comprises a contact element positioned for contact with the actuator; and processing circuitry for detecting when the actuator makes contact with the contact element. Implanting dopants to form a drain contact using a second edge of the first region as a mask to define a first edge of the drain contact, wherein the distance between the top gate and drain contact is defined by the lateral length of the first region. The LED driving circuit structure is installed on an LED light circuit board having a plurality of LEDs mounted thereon.

A fastening spring for fastening at least one component accommodated in a housing of an electric motor, in the prior art, has a bending zone which is exposed to strong mechanical stresses. In one form, a transaction facilitator includes a rear panel sized relatively close to a currency card. The rectifier module receives an AC signal from a first power node and a second power node, and rectifies the AC signal to output a driving signal to the light source.

For testing of the appliance, a test adapter is used as an interface, which is inserted into the smart card reader of the appliance. Methods of defining nucleotide sequences of the combinatorial DNA taggants, and using such taggants for authentication and tracking and tracing an object or process are also disclosed. After the triggering of the belt pretensioner and when a predefinable condition is met, the belt pretensioner is actuated in such a way that the belt reel rotates at least to such an extent in the winding-up direction that the locking device of the belt reel opens and releases the belt webbing for unwinding. In a higher transmission rate range the duty-cycle is defined as a fixed ratio, and in a lower transmission range the duty-cycle is defined by a fixed length of the short phase of the bit period. By recessing the isolation structure prior to the formation of the gate electrode, an increased degree of poly wrap around may be obtained, thereby increasing the effective channel width.
