Abstract: A control system, which creates a neutral condition if a vehicle is stationary with the brake of the vehicle being actuated and the accelerator for the engine being turned off while the transmission is set in a drive range, is equipped with a brake switch 36, which detects the operational condition of the brake, and a output rotation sensor 40, which detects the rotational speed of the output member of the transmission. If the control system detects the rotation of the output member by the output rotation sensor 40, then the control system terminates the neutral condition in spite of the operational condition of the brake, which is detected by the brake switch 36. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed to provide security for user input in which a first, host operating system is used along with a second, high assurance operating system, where the first system provides at least some of the infrastructure for the second system. Two modes are presented. In a first mode, user data is passed to the host operating system. In a second mode, user data is retained in the second operating system for the use of the second operating system or processes running on the second operating system. Transitions between the nodes can be accomplished according to hypothecated user actions such as keystroke combinations, or when the user performs an action which indicates a programmatic activation of a process running in the second operating system. Where shadow graphical elements are run by the first operating system to indicate the location of graphical elements from processes running on the second operating system, this programmatic activation may be indicated by programmatic activation of a shadow graphical element. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A method of adjusting the pH of a strengthening melt to provide an adjusted melt for use in microetching glass substrates, such as glass disk substrates for use in data storage devices. A base is added to the strengthening melt to raise its pH. A desired degree of microetch is provided on an aluminosilicate glass disk substrate, for example, by immersion for 2-4 hours at 360° C. in a melt adjusted to have a pH of 10. This single operation both strengthens and microetches the glass substrate. A slight etching of the surface of a glass substrate, i.e., microetching, improves the performance and durability of a data storage disk made from the substrate. To avoid an overly aggressive etch that can create undesirable damage to the substrate surface, an acid may be added to the melt if the pH is subsequently determined to have shifted to above an upper limit.
