Abstract: A prophy chip comprising a hollow cup-shaped core of
canopy (semispherical), cylindrical, cupped, conical,
inverted conical, or disk profile, covered with a
hydrophilic grindstone sponge containing a polishing agent,
the hydrophilic grindstone sponge side edge either being
press fixed by being folded into the interior of the core by
a shank-equipped latch plate or contoured for gripping, a
shaft fixed to avoid vibration around the latch plate bottom
surface rotation axis during rotation, thereby providing a
cleaning, polishing, and burnishing prophy chip which
maintains polishing efficiency without involving transverse
oscillations in polishing barrel-shaped tooth clearances or
adjacent surfaces and without requiring a polishing gel or
paste due to improved dissipation of heat generated by
friction.

Abstract: Dans les murs de structures classiques, qu'on appelle appareils, les briques sont posées de manière que les joints verticaux, qu'on appelle joints droits, ne se trouvent jamais l'un sur l'autre. Ils sont alternés d'un quart de longueur ou d'une demi-longueur de brique. C'est pourquoi on ne peut réaliser des reliefs de surface en saillie ou en creux dans la façade sans traitement des briques. La présente invention concerne une brique (II) ou (III) qui résout ce problème pour un mur de demi-briques. A cet effet, la brique est rétrécie dans sa largeur sur un côté respectivement d'un quart de longueur, d'une demi-longueur de la brique (II) et de la brique (III), et d'une demi épaisseur d'un joint droit (3) choisi. Cette invention concerne aussi un mur de demi-briques dans lequel des briques (II), (III), (IV), (V), (VI), (VII), (VIII) et (IX) sont incorporées et dans lequel on utilise un joint droit (3). Les briques mentionnées sont partiellement placées sur une même brique qui est retournée et renversée. Lorsque le plan (B) ou (D) est placé de sorte qu'il fasse partie du plan de la façade, on peut obtenir un relief de façade en creux (X.1) ou (Y.1). Lorsque le plan (A) ou (C) est placé de sorte qu'il fasse partie du plan de la façade, on obtient un relief de surface vertical en saillie (X.2) ou (Y.2). Le rétrécissement des briques (II) et (III), combiné dans une brique donne les briques (IV) et (V). Avec des combinaisons de deux plans  (A) ou (C) en creux dans les briques VI), (VII), (VIII) ou (IX) on peut obtenir les reliefs de surface verticale (X.1) ou (Y.1) sur deux côtés du mur de demi-briques.

Abstract: A system and method is disclosed is capable of receiving messages from a
mobile communication system. The system generates a reference number for a
received message comprising a terminal, a reference number table, and comparator.
The terminal communicates a received message having an allocated reference
number. A reference number table stores messages according to reference number. A
comparison is performed at the terminal for comparing the allocated reference
number to a reference number of a previously stored message. A new reference
number is generated if the allocated reference number is the same as the reference
number of the previously stored message. The system also provides means for
storing the allocated reference number and the new reference number in the
reference number table for the received message.

Abstract: A scheduling mechanism and method for scheduling the output
of frames from a plurality of priority queues in a network
router or multi-layer switch is disclosed. The method of
scheduling packets generally includes the steps of:
allocating bandwidth credits for a plurality of queues;
dequeuing frames from a current queue if there is available
credit; deducting the available credit in accordance with
the credit requirements of the frames that are dequeued;
and replenishing the available credit for each of the
queues when the available credit for the current queue is
insufficient to dequeue a frame. Since the available
credit for each of the queues is replenished as needed
instead of at a regular or periodic interval, the
scheduling method is executed independent of time and with
reduced computational resources. The present invention
offers an efficient variant of deficit round robin, while
reducing the computation burden associated with
conventional deficit round robin.

Abstract: Method for measuring a torque, especially the torque acting on a vehicle drive train shaft in which torsion dependent, magnetically conducting topographies are placed in a magnetic field, the characteristics of which are measured using field sensors in order to determine the torques acting. The torsions are measured solely dependent on the phase displacement and or direction of the magnetic field gradient as a function of time. From them the actual torque is determined. The invention also relates to a corresponding torque measurement arrangement and a software program product for measuring the torque acting of a shaft.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for efficiently managing the storage of e-mail message information for a mobile station (102,202) are described. In one illustrative example, a plurality of e-mail messages are received by the mobile station (102,202) through a wireless network (104) and stored in memory (224,226). If a size of the e-mail messages reaches a predetermined limit of the memory, e-mail message bodies of some of the e-mail messages (e.g. relatively ¨old¨ e-mails) are automatically deleted from the memory while e-mail message headers of the e-mail messages are retained. E-mail message headers of e-mail messages having deleted e-mail message bodies may still be visually displayed in a list at the mobile station (102,202). Subsequently, if a user selection of one of these e-mail messages in the list is identified, an e-mail message body of the e-mail message is requested by the mobile station (102,202) and received from a server (190) through the wireless network (104). Thus, the e-mail message body of the selected e-mail message may still be visually displayed at the mobile station (102,202),

Abstract: An apparatus and method are described for splinting teeth. 
     The apparatus of the invention comprises a splint formed from a flat and relatively thin
rigid sheet. The splint has two support prongs extending in opposite directions from each other
from two shoulders that are connected by an arch portion that extends between the upper ends of
the two shoulders. 
     The method for applying the splint, requires that aligned grooves be cut into each of the
two adjacent teeth, the groove being large enough to accommodate the splint. The grooves are
partially filled, a flowable composite resin and the splint is then embedded in the composite resin
in the groove. The groove thus filled is cured, finished and polished to a smooth surface.

Abstract: In a first aspect the present invention provides a tumor cell line stably transfected with an expression vector containing a reporter gene, preferably a fluorescent protein, operably linked to a promotor that also controls expression of a protein that is associated with tumor regression, stabilization of tumor growth or inhibition of metastatic growth, characterized in that said cell line is capable to form a tumor when implanted or injected into the non-human animal. Compared to the traditional in vivo models, the present invention differs in that the reporter gene is not constitutively expressed, but only after exposure to a test compound that results in the expression of a protein or enzyme associated with tumor regression, stabilization of tumor growth or inhibition of metastatic growth. Only when a compound to be tested got into circulation and infiltrated the tumor it may generate the reporter signal, provided it promotes the expression of a protein associated with tumor regression and the promoter of said protein is operably linked to the reporter gene.

Abstract: A progressive power lens is conventionally so designed that a distance portion and a near portion are linked together in a successive manner, and thus mounting to a frame cannot be done in a manner as to fully achieve the best optical properties of the near portion. The present invention provides, on the other hand, a progressive power lens that is designed to make the near portion closer to an eyeball without impairing the optical properties of the progressive power lens. Accordingly, both the distance portion and the near portion can be mounted with the ideal fitting, and the resulting eyeglasses can be less in distortion and sway.
