Abstract: The present invention relates to a method and a device for controlling power in a network transmitted from a first station to a second station. The second station determines a power target value for a signal received from the first station and sends power control commands to the first station depending on a deviation between said power target value and a received power level. The second station detects faulty data blocks received from the first station and requests retransmission of faulty data blocks from the first station. The adjustment of the power target value to a temporary power target value during the retransmission is performed such that the temporary power target value is calculated depending on the quality of a faulty data block.

Abstract: A filter device, in particular, for high-pressure applications in a molten polymer filtration, has a screw-in piece ( 10 ), provided with a first threaded section ( 12 ) for fixing the filter device, and a second threaded section ( 14 ) for fixing a filter medium ( 16 ), in particular, in the form of a metal wool and with a perforated support tube ( 18 ) for the metal wool. The other free end of the filter device is provided with a volume displacer ( 24 ). The metal wool is surrounded by a support grid ( 20 ) and fixed by two fixing pieces ( 28, 30 ), held at a separation from each other by the support grid ( 20 ). One fixing piece ( 28 ) is fixed to the second threaded section ( 14 ) of the screw-in piece ( 10 ). The other fixing piece forms a handle ( 30 ) for the fixing formed. As a result of the volume displacer ( 24 ) being a one-piece component of the support tube ( 18 ) and the fixing piece ( 30 ) forming the handle covering the volume displacer ( 24 ), the filter device is significantly improved in that a simple and rapid assembly procedure for the exchangeable filter medium is provided. Also, the filter element construction is held formed to be free of damaging torsional loads.

Abstract: Described herein is a splice chamber for accommodating excess optical cable obtained when making a fusion splice connection between two reels of cable. The chamber comprises two portions which define a space for the optical cable. The chamber is constructed to divide into two longitudinal half portions along a longitudinal line, but each end is retained until conditions are suitable for release. The space inside of the chamber is shaped to determine the bend radius for the enclosed optical cable and protects the cable during storage and handling. When a predetermined force is applied to one end of the chamber, the two longitudinal half portions separate to release the optical cable stored therein, pivoting about the other end.

Abstract: The present invention provides methods and compositions for treatment of mammals afflicted with an ischemic or traumatic injury of the central nervous system. The present invention capitalizes in part upon the discovery that administration of a morphogen to such a mammal provides significant improvement in central nervous system function, even when administered after central nervous system tissue has been damaged. The methods involve the administration of dimeric proteins defined as morphogens, inducers of these morphogens, or agonists of the corresponding morphogen receptors, or implantation of cells stimulated by exposure to the morphogens. The proteins defined as morphogens comprise a structurally and functionally distinct family within the TGT- beta  superfamily. Osteogenic protein-1 (OP-1) is considered to be an exemplary and preferred member of this morphogen family.

Abstract: A cheese substitute to imitate grated parmesan cheese comprises a protein or other bland edible particulate combined with a vegetable fat component and a salt along with flavouring to approximate the taste and smell of parmesan cheese. The preferred choice of protein or edible particulate source is a full fat pre-cooked soya flour. The vegetable fat chosen is one suitable to act as the binding as well as mixing matrix for the cheese substitute. Thus, a vegetable based fat such as partially or fully hydrogenated vegetable oil commonly known as "Vegetable Shortening" is used. Fine grain sodium chloride is preferred as the salt in order to allow ready and discrete combination with the other constituents of the cheese substitute.

Abstract: The present invention provides an illuminating surface, e.g. a floor or wall tile, that includes an array of identical circuits (G, K, H, L) that can each be connected to a power source/ 14 ). The surface emits light in the presence of an object touching or in close proximity to the surface. Each circuit includes a sensor ( 12 ), e.g. a pressure switch, for detecting the presence of the object; at least one light source ( 20 ) that is illuminated when the sensor of that circuit detects the presence of the object. The circuits control the illumination of the light sources ( 20 ) such that the light sources remains illuminated for a time after its associated sensor ( 12 ) has ceased to detect the presence of the object. Each of the circuits is connected with at least one adjacent circuit, and, when the sensor of the first-mentioned circuit detects the presence of an object, the light source(s) ( 20 ) of the adjacent circuits are illuminated, thereby causing an area of the surface to emit light that corresponds to and is larger than the shape of the object.
