The first double correlator (74) performs an early correlation and a late correlation of the p samples relative to a sync burst slot (50) to generate an early correlation Pe and a late correlation Pl. The second double correlator (76) performs an early correlation and a late correlation of the q samples relative to the sync burst slot (50) to generate an early correlation Qe and a late correlation Ql. The modulus module (78) determines an early modulus Re and a late modulus Rl from the early correlations Pe and Qe and from the late correlations Pl and Ql. The early modulus Re and the late modulus Rl are used to determine if the sync burst (52) is present in the sync burst slot (50) and if the sync burst (52) is early or late relative to the sync burst slot (50).

Title: High alkaline hair compositions for increased fullness and body
Inventor: WALLACE PAUL S
IPC: A61K8/40
Filed: 1999-02-03
Abstract: The invention provides compositions for providing body, fullness and texture to otherwise fine or very fine keratinous fibers, particularly human hair. The compositions of the present invention have a high pH, e.g., about 8 to about 10 when the compositions contain cationic polymer, and a pH of about 8 to about 14, preferably about 8.5 to about 13, and more preferably, about 8.5 to about 10 when the compositions contain no cationic polymer. The compositions include one or more nonionic and/or cationic polymers, which, in combination with the high pH of the composition, lift the hair cuticle and allow the deposition of polymer, thus resulting in increased fullness and texture to the hair. The compositions of the present invention may be in the form of known hair care products such as, for example, shampoos, rinses and conditioners. In addition, the compositions can be formulated, for example, as lotions or creams, and the like, for consumer use. The hair care compositions of the present invention provide beneficial and long-lasting effects of body and fullness within a minute or less after application to the hair.

Abstract: The flue gas (22) temperature coming from an air preheater (14) to a particulate collection device such as an electrostatic precipitator (16) or fabric filter is reduced to improve the operation of the particulate collection device. This may be done by reducing the exit flue gas (22) temperature from the air preheater (14) or reducing the temperature after exiting. In one embodiment, air in excess of that needed for combustion is passed through the air preheater (14) with the heated excess air either being dumped (34) or used for a variety of purposes (30, 32) in the plant. A particular embodiment involves segmenting the air outlet side of a rotary regenerative air preheater (14) and withdrawing the excess air from the segment where the dust loading is the lowest. Further, additional cooling of the flue gas (22) can be provided by reducing the quantity of primary air that typically bypasses the air preheater (14) and then providing other ways to control the primary air temperature to the pulverizers. The flue gas (22) temperature may also be cooled after the air preheater (14) by heat exchange or spray cooling with water.

Patent CA-2328392-A1 (CA)
Title: Ostomy coupling
Inventor: PLASS RONALD
IPC: A61F5/448
Filed: 2000-12-13
Abstract: An ostomy coupling is described of the type comprising a locking member in the form of a resilient split ring, for fastening two ostomy coupling members together.   One feature of the invention is that one of the coupling members comprises a tapered seal seat surface for cooperating with a deflectable seal wing carried by the other member. The tapered seal seat has a smoothly curved taper, to enable a relatively large seal area to be provided within a low coupling profile height.   Another feature of one form of the invention is that the split ring has an inclined outer surface to form a smooth profile with the coupling member on which it is carried.   Another feature of another form of the invention is that each limb of the split ring is bifurcated to receive a radially projecting guide of the coupling member, on which the split ring is mounted. The split ring thus extends above and below the guide, removing the need for a mounting channel on the coupling member itself, and enabling the height of the coupling to be further reduced.

Title: System and method for use of override keys for location services
Inventor: ROEL-NG MAYA
IPC: H04W64/00
Filed: 1999-04-19
Abstract: A telecommunications system and method are disclosed for implementing Location Override Key(s) (LOKs) within location services in order to determine whether certain checks on subscriber limitations and/or system default behavior are applicable or not for a particular location request. Each LOK can either have the value override or not override associated therewith, and each Location Application (LA) can be associated with a particular value of an LOK. In addition, an LOK can be accompanied by one or more additional parameters related to the particular LOK. For example, location services can provide LAs with a Privacy Override Key (POK), which can have a value of "override"  or "not override". If the POK is set to "override", the privacy settings of the subscriber to be positioned shall be overridden for the particular positioning request in most cases only if the subscriber to be positioned is in the same Public Land Mobile Network (PLMN) as the Gateway Mobile Location Center (GMLC) that received the positioning request.
