Abstract: Olive oil based products, based on the virgin olive oils, containing plant sterol and/or stanol fatty acid ester blends made from high polyunsaturated fatty acid containing vegetable oils are provided. The olive oil based products provide the advantage of incorporating cholesterol-lowering plant stanols and sterols into high grade commercial olive oils, such as virgin olive oils, while avoiding the undesirable precipitation or crystallization of higher melting lipids in higher grade olive oils normally associated with the incorporation of such stanol and/or sterol fatty acid esters by crystallizing any higher melting lipids from the olive oil at temperatures ranging from room temperature to refrigerator temperature. Methods for preparing the olive oil based products are provided.
Patent CA-2389045-A1 (CA)
Inventor: DEBARD GERARD
IPC: G03B21/60
Filed: 2000-10-24
Abstract: Screens are already used for projecting images in cinema, video projection, television, computers and slides. Not all of these screens bring the image to life sufficiently due to a saturation with light which overwhelms the image and which is too intense for the eye. The aim of the inventive method is to respect the physiological parameters of sight and present the image in three dimensions and to give it a chromatic dynamic and a much greater range of shades, the latter being obtained by light diffraction of multilayer screens.  The multiple layers diffract the rays of light coming from the projector, which are partially reflected on at least one first transparent or translucid layer that is embossed in places, with slightly different angles of incidence, and on at least one second, very reflective structure. The image seen by the viewer is the sum of all of these effects of diffraction. The overall perception is that of a three-dimensional image and an impression of intensified light. According to the inventive method, a fabric-type device is produced with a very luminescent thread at the back and a transparent thread woven in the surface. This fabric is embossed so as to produce a relief. The fabric is also useful for acoustics for use in a cinema screen. Another variant can be produced for television and computer screens according to this method. The method and device for high definition image vision and light intensification using direct light incidences can be applied to the fields of cinema, audio visual technology and image projection.

Patent CA-2389160-A1 (CA)
Title: Clock pulse and data regenerator for different data rates
Inventor: SOMMER JORG
IPC: H03L7/14
Filed: 2000-10-24
Abstract: The clock and data regenerator comprises a control loop which is controlled by a phase discriminator (PD) and two frequency discriminators (FD1, FD2). The first frequency discriminator (FD1) enlarges the catchment range of the control loop in a known manner. The second frequency discriminator (FD2) determines the ratio of the bit rates of the clock signal (TS) which it produces itself and of the data signal (DSF). It sets the loop frequency divider (6) appropriately, and supplies a control voltage for setting the oscillator (5) until the first frequency discriminator (FD1) can carry out this function.

Title: Absorbent article with a rolled leg cuff
Inventor: LEHMAN JOHN RAY
IPC: A61F13/15
Filed: 2000-10-04
Abstract: An absorbent garment having a pant-like configuration is constructed with strategically placed leg elastic, resulting in an aesthetically pleasing, finished look at the leg opening. Such strategic placements include securing the leg elastic to an outer cover and folding the outer cover over the elastic; or placing the elastic between a liquid-permeable body side liner and the outer cover and folding the outer cover over the elastic and securing the outer cover to the body side liner; or folding the outer cover more than once around the elastic. In any case, the distance between the leg elastic is nearly equal to the width dimension of the outer cover of the finished product. In addition to being aesthetically pleasing, the finished product eliminates the chance of exposing the leg elastic to the user. In an alternate embodiment, portions of the outer cover can extend laterally beyond an absorbent layer, thereby serving as seamless leak guards.

Title: Targeted and intelligent multimedia conference establishment services
Inventor: LEE CHINMEI CHEN
IPC: H04W4/16
Filed: 2002-07-25
Abstract: In a multimedia communications system (100), a conference establishment server coordinates the scheduling of a conference call. The server receives request for conference calls (202). The request includes a list of participants and may include an indication of the resources necessary and any rules for the conference call. The request may indicate critical resources or participants that are required for the call. Based on the request, the server determines a conference time and notifies participants of the time (204, 206, 210). Prior to conference time, participants are reminded of the time and automatically connected to the call. The server may check the status of users on the telecommunications network to determine availability. If a critical participant or resource is unavailable at conference time, the conference may be cancelled with notification to the participants.
Patent CA-2396813-A1 (CA)
Inventor: ENGLISH GEORGE J
IPC: F21V29/505
Filed: 2002-08-02
Abstract: Open LED chips may be arranged directly on the surface of a replaceable lamp capsule without intervening packages that reduce overall light emission. The chips may be oriented in such a way that the lamp generates a unique "donut" shape radiation pattern, which is suitable for a flat and shallow secondary optics to collimate the light into a desired beam pattern, and to reduce the unaesthetic appearance of points of light in an onlooker's view. The LED chips are driven in such a way that one chip fails, the whole lamp fails to avoid a partially lit appearance. At the same time the heat generated by the LED chips may be conducted away by the support structure to possibly vehicle's sheet metal to enhance life of the LED chip. The standardization of this LED lamp makes this product more cost effective thus to be used in broader lighting applications.

Title: Process for producing polypropylene from c3 olefins selectively produced in a fluid catalytic cracking process
Inventor: CHEN TAN-JEN
IPC: C10G11/08
Filed: 2001-03-01
Abstract: A process for producing polymers from olefins selectively produced from a catalytically cracked or thermally cracked naphtha stream is disclosed herein.  The naphtha stream is introduced into a process unit comprised of a reaction zone, a stripping zone, a catalyst regeneration zone, and a fractionation zone. The naphtha feedstream is contacted in the reaction zone with a catalyst containing from about 10 to 50 wt. % of a crystalline zeolite having an average pore diameter less than about 0.7 nanometers at reaction conditions which include temperatures ranging from about 500~ to 650 ~C and a hydrocarbon partial pressure from about 10 to 40 psia. Vapor products are collected overhead and the catalyst particles are passed through the stripping zone on the way to the catalyst regeneration zone. Volatiles are stripped with stream in the stripping zone and the catalyst particles are sent to the catalyst regeneration zone where coke is burned from the catalyst, which is then recycled to the reaction zone. Overhead products from the reaction zone are passed to a fractionation zone where a stream of C3 products is recovered and a stream rich in C4 and/or C5 olefins is recycled to the stripping zone. The olefins can be further processed and polymerized to form a variety of polymer materials.
