Abstract: An integrated and unified method of statistical-like analysis, scenario forecasting, risking sharing, and risk trading is presented. Variates explanatory of response variates are identified in terms of the "value of the knowing." Such a value can be direct economic value. Probabilistic scenarios are generated by multi-dimensionally weighting a dataset. Weights are specified using Exogenous-Forecasted Distributions (EFDs). Weighting is done by a highly improved Iterative Proportional Fitting Procedure (IPFP) that exponentially reduces computer storage and calculations requirements. A  probabilistic nearest neighbor procedure is provided to yield fine-grain pinpoint scenarios. A method to evaluate forecasters is presented; this method addresses game-theory issues. All of this leads to the final component: a new method of sharing and trading risk, which both directly integrates with the above and yields contingent risk-contracts that better serve all parties.

Abstract: A high pH and a low pH process for reducing the degree of polymerization of a pulp having a hemicellulose content of at least 7%. The high pH is greater than 8, and the low pH process is 2 to 8. The high pH process reduces the degree of polymerization without substantially increasing the copper number. The low pH process requires a subsequent treatment with alkali to reduce the copper number of the pulp to less than 2. The process can be practiced in pulp mills with a bleaching sequence having one or more E or D stages. At the end of the bleach sequence, a pulp having a degree of polymerization of 200 to 1100, a copper number of less than 2, and a hemicellulose content of at least 7% is provided. The pulp can be used to make lyocell fibers.

Filed: 2006-03-20
Abstract: To surely perform authentication based on a request signal Sr which is the authorized radio signal even under bad radio environment in which radio noise comes continuously. A portable device which receives a request signal Sr transmitted from a vehicle-mounted device and transmits an answer signal comprises a receiving-sensitivity changing switch which changes receiving sensitivity of a receiving circuit which receives the request signal Sr. As a result, even if the authentication cannot be carried out with normal receiving sensitivity due to the influence of the continuous radio noise, by changing the receiving sensitivity to low sensitivity, and by bringing the portable device physically close to a transmission source of the request signal which is the authorized radio signal, it is made possible to dramatically increase the probability that the authentication based on the authorized radio signal can be carried out.

Abstract: Apparatus 10 for modular eyeglasses having a plurality of lens members 14 that can be selectively mounted to a frame member 12. The frame member 12 has the typical temples 16 and a crossbar 18 with an interdisposed bridge 20. The bridge 20 is formed of pad arms and nose pads 36 depending from a mounting having a magnetic element 22 fixed within the top mounting surface with a pair of apertures 28 spaced away from each side of the magnet.  The frame 12 provides means whereby a number of lens members 14, such as reading lenses, distance lenses and sunblock lenses can be easily mounted to a single frame. A lens member 14 is comprised of a pair of lenses 34 with holes drilled in them for attachment at 32 to a flanged lens platform 30. The platform 30 has a mating magnetic element 24 with posts 26 located on each side of the magnet linearly conforming to the distance between the frame housing apertures 28. Once the magnets 22, 24 are aligned the posts 28 and apertures 28 prevent torsional forces from displacing the lens member 10, while maintaining the correct spacing between the user's eyes and lenses 34.
