Abstract: A DISPOSABLE FREEZER LINER, making it possible to freeze mother's pumped milk, where it is 100% freezer burn free.        It is a bottle liner that is used in disposable baby bottles.   In this invention, TWIST TIES are secured to the ends of the disposable bottle liner, which turns a regular liner into a freezable liner.   Twist ties enable a person to be able to close up the liner full of milk, so that it is 100% air tight, preventing freezer burn in the long run.   It also serves as a regular bottle liner, once the milk with the liner is inserted into a disposable bottle and the tabs are removed at the perforated line.

Patent CA-2404897-A1 (CA)
Inventor: BLAKELY SARA T
IPC: A41B11/14
Filed: 2001-04-06
Abstract: A pantyhose undergarment (1) having leg portions (3, 4) terminating with knitted-in welts (7, 8) proximate to the kness and a control top portion (5) terminating with a knitted-in waistband welt (6). The undergarment features shaping and control properties, and the bare lower leg facilitates wearing open-toed shoes or sandals, for example. The pantyhose undergarment reduces foot slippage that may occur when traditional pantyhose are worn with shoes. And, a wearer may prefer a casual appearance that traditional pantyhose do not accommodate. The reinforced control top portion (5) extends down the leg portions to control and shape the "saddlebag" and cellulite regions of the body. The waistband welt (6) blends into the control top without causing waist constriction. Similarly, the welts at the ends of the leg portions (7, 8) blend into the leg portions without causing leg constriction. The overall design provides the user with a smooth, tight appearance when worn under clothing, without causing discomfort.

Title: Systems and methods for translating languages
Inventor: RICCARDI GIUSEPPE
IPC: G06F17/28
Filed: 2002-11-29
Abstract: Systems and methods for translating one language to another language. A  consensus translation system directs a transcription or other input to be translated by other translation systems. The outputs of those translation systems are aligned and the aligned translations are divided into segments. Each segment includes a segment translation from each of the translation outputs. The consensus translation of the transcription is constructed by selecting the majority segment translation from each segment. When there is no clear majority segment translation, the majority segment translation is selected at random or is aided by another selection criteria such as a language model.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne, d'une part, des procédés permettant de fabriquer des dispositifs, ou "plateaux", présentant une matrice haute densité de trous traversants et, d'autre part, des procédés permettant de nettoyer et de remettre en état les surfaces de ces plateaux. Cette invention concerne également des procédés permettant de fabriquer des matrices haute densité de composés chimiques, biochimiques et biologiques, présentant un certain nombre d'avantages par rapport aux matrices faible densité classiques. L'invention concerne des procédés consistant à effectuer plusieurs transformations physiques, chimiques ou biologiques en série ou en parallèle dans chacun des trous traversants adressables des dispositifs. En outre, l'invention concerne des procédés permettant d'analyser le contenu d'une matrice, y compris de tester des propriétés physiques d'échantillons. Dans plusieurs modes de réalisation, les réactifs peuvent être obtenus dans des trous traversants par capillarité, reliés aux parois des trous traversants, ou reliés ou contenus dans un matériau poreux placé à l'intérieur du trou traversant. Le matériau poreux peut être, par exemple, un gel, une perle, du verre fritté, ou une matière particulaire, ou encore, il peut être la paroi interne du trou traversant gravée chimiquement. Dans des modes de réalisation particuliers, les matrices peuvent comprendre des molécules isolées, des complexes moléculaires, des virus, des cellules, des groupes de cellules, des morceaux de tissu, ou des petites particules ou des perles. De plus, les éléments des matrices peuvent, par exemple, fonctionner comme des transducteurs indiquant la présence d'un mélange à analyser (par exemple, au moyen d'un signal facilement détectable), ou encore, ils peuvent fonctionner comme des agents de liaison sélectifs pour retenir les mélanges à analyser présentant un intérêt. Ces procédés permettent également de préparer des matrices correspondant à un grand nombre de gènes humains (par exemple, au moyen de sondes d'acide nucléique).

Title: Corrosivity measurement device with temperature compensation
Inventor: TIEFNIG EUGEN
IPC: G01N17/00
Filed: 2003-04-25
Abstract: An improved corrosion measurement system for determining the rate of corrosion of a fluid medium. The system is comprised of a highly sensitive excitation and amplification electronic circuitry for registering and displaying the stable and accurate measurement results. A novel current feedback amplifier maintains a constant alternating current voltage across the reference element, by simultaneously controlling the current through the serially connected reference and corroding elements, thereby keeping the corrosivity measurement independent of the probe's ambient temperature. The unique unitized electrical resistance measurement probe is also temperature stabilized using thermally bridged and balanced metallic elements; the first reference element being coated with an impermeable insulating coating, the second, the sacrificial corroding element, being fully exposed to the corrosive fluid medium.

Title: Hair detangler and light conditioner
Inventor: BENDINER BERNARD
IPC: A61K8/02
Filed: 2003-07-09
Abstract: A method for producing an all natural and organic hair detangler and light conditioner that is odorless and crystal clear. This detangler and conditioner can be used for human hair or the fur of domestic animals. The product has colloidal sized particles of cellulose bonded by wax that are suspended in the solution.  The process for producing this detangler and conditioner includes the step of placing special wax paper in a filter bag, similar to but larger than a tea bag, immersing the filter bag in hot water causing infinitesimal sized particles of cellulose bonded by wax to pass through the filter and to become suspended in the water. The special wax paper is produced by the dry wax process in which pressure is applied to impregnate the wax into the tissue paper. In the preferred embodiment of this invention the wax on the wax paper is bees wax. The filtrate from this initial filter is passed through a second finer filter which provides a finished aqueous product that is crystal-clear, odorless and contains colloidal particles of cellulose bonded by wax.

Title: Method and system for buffering of streamed media
Inventor: HANNUKSELA MISKA
IPC: H04N7/24
Filed: 2002-02-08
Abstract: The invention discloses a method of improving the playback of streamed media on a client device by overcoming problems caused by variations in the transmission delay of packets due to network and transport protocol operatio n and variations in encoding/server specific delays. In an embodiment of the invention, a client device has a decoder (120) and a pre-decoder buffer (110 ) which receives streamed packets from source server via a packet network. The pre-decoder buffer is variable in size and has a variable initial buffering time for receiving the transmitted packets from the source server prior to decoding in the decoder. The initial buffering time and pre-decoder buffer size can be dynamically adapted for improved playback performance by the source server. In a further aspect of the invention, a post-decoder buffer operates in conjunction with the pre-encoder buffer to reduce decoding-relat ed delay variations.

Abstract: An evaporation based method of treating produced water from heavy oil production. A produced water from heavy oil recovery operations treated by first removing oil and grease to a desired level, preferably to about twenty parts per million, or less, in deoiling step (40). The pH is then adjusted, normally downward and by acid addition, in acid addition step (144), to release at least some carbonate alkalinity as free carbon dioxide. Feedwater is introduced into an evaporator (140), and the feedwater is evaporated to a selected concentration factor to produce: a distillate having a small amount of residual solutes; and an evaporator blowdown containing residual solids. Distillate may be directly used for steam generation in a once-through steam generator or be polished by ion exchange unit (22) or undergo electrodeionization prior to feed to a packaged boiler (80). In either case, 100% quality steam is produced for downhole use.
