Abstract: An electromagnetic control valve (20) of a fast response compression volume control
apparatus for a refrigeration cycle is provided which connects and blocks a crank
chamber (12) of the compressor to and from a discharge chamber (4)
such that the differential pressure
between the crank chamber (12) and a pressure and the suction chamber

differential pressure is changed by changing the electromagnetic force of the
electromagnetic control valve such that the discharge volume of the refrigerant is
controlled and the compression volume becomes a predetermined one in a prompt
action without a time delay when the electromagnetic force is varied.

Abstract: A sender (101) creates a voicemail message that includes a plurality of
messaging elements that include embedded instructions that define a structure of
the message. Other messaging elements may include textual fragments, audio
fragments that refer to audio data files that are associated with the message, and/or
references to textual fragments and/or audio fragments that are stored at specified
locations. The instructions may define a hierarchical menu structure which, when
the message is presented to the recipient (106) by a messaging system (104), offers
the recipient different navigational choices from which the recipient may select and
thus effect the information content of what is presented. The structured message is
sent by the sender to the recipient at an address on a messaging system that stores
the message and is capable of interpreting and assembling the messaging elements
in accordance with the embedded instruction and playing-out the message to the
recipient when the recipient accesses the system and retrieves the message from
storage. The structured message may also include links to a specific destination, to
which the messaging system establishes a connection if the link is selected by the
recipient during play-out of the message. Further, the messaging system can gather
information from the recipient during play-out and forward that information to a
specified destination, which may respond with another structured message. In the
described embodiment, a phone markup language is used to define the structure
and the inherent embedded instructions associated with the structure of the
message.

which terminates at the trailing edge. A plurality of trailing edge cooling air
ducts (60) extend chordwise through the trailing edge block (50) aftwardly
