Abstract: Systems and methods for optimizing the use and availability of storage space in a video data recording system. An intelligent disk recording and management system selectively assigns tags to determine the manner and/or priority of recording programs onto a storage device and the priority of maintaining the programs on the storage device once the programs are recorded. The tags are automatically assigned based on known user preferences or are assigned by the viewer, and can be modified once a program is replayed. The tags allow the system to automatically determine whether or not to record over a previously recorded program and which previously recorded program to record over so as to allow the storage device to be more efficiently and optimally used. The system further includes an interface that provides improved assistance and explanations that relate to the recording of programs and the maintaining of the recorded programs on the storage device.

Abstract: The present invention, generally speaking, provides a power-efficient method of driving a switch mode power supply at higher frequencies than those typically attainable in the prior art. In an exemplary embodiment, driver transistors exhibit gate capacitance, which is exploited by charging the gate capacitance using a pulse signal and thereafter allowing the gate capacitance to discharge. With the gate capacitance charged, the driver transistor remains on for the desired period of time even without a drive signal being continuously applied, thus conserving power. In essence, the gate capacitance is exploited in the manner of a memory cell. Furthermore, at higher-frequency operation, instead of the gate capacitance being fully charged, leading to increased turn-off time, the gate capacitance is only partially charged, allowing for quicker turn around. The envelope-following capability of the switch mode power supply, in telecommunications applications, is therefore increased. In accordance with another aspect of the invention, in RF amplification circuit having a phase path and a magnitude path, an amplifier is provided having at least a final stage, the amplifier having an RF input coupled to the phase path; and a switch mode power supply is coupled to an operational voltage and to a power supply input terminal of the amplifier. The switch mode power supply includes a transistor switch, a driver circuit for driving the transistor switch, and a controller, the controller causing the driver circuit to operate in charge transfer mode in which a pulse of short duration relative to a duty cycle of the switch mode power supply is used to turn on the transistor switch.

Abstract: An asymmetric distributed Bragg reflector (DBR) suitable for use in vertical cavity surface emitting lasers. The asymmetric DBR is comprised of stacked material layers having different indexes of refraction that are joined using asymmetrical transition regions in which the transition steps within a transition region have different material compositions, different doping levels, and different layer thicknesses. Adjacent transition regions have different transition steps. Thinner transition regions are relatively highly doped and are located where the optical standing wave within the DBR has a low field strength. Thicker transition regions are relatively lightly doped and are located where the optical standing wave has a relatively high field strength. Beneficially, in the AlXGa(1-X)As material system the stacked material layers are alternating layers of AlAs and GaAs. Other material systems will use other alternating layers.

Abstract: A method and an apparatus for the uninterrupted supply of liquid subcooled carbon dioxide. The liquid is supplied at a nearly constant pressure greater than about 40 bar. Liquid carbon dioxide is supplied at a low pressure and is sent into a low pressure tank where it is stored temporarily. The carbon dioxide is then pumped, with a pump, from the low pressure tank to a high pressure tank. During the pumping, the pressure of the carbon dioxide is increased. The carbon dioxide is stored in the high pressure tank until its removal. When the carbon dioxide is removed, it is in a thermodynamic disequilibrium between the liquid and gas phases.

Abstract: A medical needle assembly (700) includes a needle cannula (30) having a body and a tip (32). The tip is disposed at a distal end of the cannula. An elongate member (40) has a first end and a second end. The first end is fixedly attached to the body of the needle cannula at a connection point and the second end extends radially outward from the needle body. A shield (5) is slidingly mounted to the needle for movement between a proximal position to a distal position. The shield includes a shield body having a central chamber, a distal end (211) and a proximal end (210) as well as a plate (53) secured to the shield body and defining an aperture (14). As the shield is moved from the proximal position to the distal position, the place displaces the second end of the elongate member to a position near the needle cannula, permitting the elongate member to pass through the aperture. When the shield is in the distal position, the send end of the elongate member extends radially outward from the needle body, preventing passage of the elongate member through the aperture. The elongate member may be a leaf spring. A feature (35) may be secured to the body of the cannula to restrict movement of the shield with respect to the needle.

Abstract: The present invention provides high brightness kaolins exhibiting a Brightness (GE) of at least about 90.0. The hydrous kaolin pigments of the present invention may also have,  inter alia,  a steepness index (d 30 /d 70  X 100) of at least about 39 and/or a  titania  concentration less than or equal to about 0.40% by weight of the pigment on a dry basis. The hydrous kaolin pigment is produced by a process comprising: a) forming an aqueous suspension of a hydrous kaolin clay; b) forming a primary product by subjecting the suspension to classification or a combination of classification and griding; c), separating the kaolin from impurities by selective flocculation; and d) defining the separated kaolin. The hydrous kaolins of the present invention allow coated papers to be produced at high brightness while maintaining acidic conditions on a paper machine. The invention pigments exhibit brightness levels unexpectedly higher, e.g., about 2 to about 5.2 or more (GE) units brighter, than exhibited by previous high brightness hydrous kaolin pigments, without sacrificing other important paper properties. Paper coated with the inventive pigments have high brightness, high whiteness, and high fluorescence levels. The present invention encompasses these pigments, compositions comprising them, and any application in which they are used.

Abstract: A process for the extrusion of gelled products, such as jelly gum confectionaries or pharmaceutical products, in a cooker or former extruder uses unique spray-dried pregelatinized high amylose starches alone or in blends with selected starches to provide extrudates which quickly set and form gels. The products typically contain 10-18% of the starch (on a dry solids basis), 70-90% of a sweetener, up to 20% water, and up to 20% of conventional confectionary or pharmaceutical ingredients. The mixture may be heated to about 93 DEG C (200-240 DEG F) prior to extrusion to provide a flowable mixture. The spray-dried, pregelatinized high amylose starches (unmodified or modified) are prepared by a simultaneous steam atomization and spray-drying by process which provides a pregelatinized granular starch or a continuous coupled jet-cooking and spray-drying process which provides a pregelatinized dispersed starch which is substantially non-crystalline and substantially non-retrograded.
