Abstract: Compositions and methods for reducing or eliminating the appearance of cellulite. The method involves administering to a patient in need of treatment therapeutically effective amounts of a sugar compound that is converted to a glycosaminoglycan in the patient in an amount sufficient to thicken the skin, a primary antioxidant component in an amount sufficient to substantially inhibit the formation of collagenase and elastase, at least one amino acid component in an amount sufficient to assist in the thickening of the skin, and at least one transition metal component in an amount effective to bind collagen and elastic fibers and thicken skin so as to reduce or eliminate the appearance of cellulite. A preferred method of treatment further includes administering the components above in conjunction with a vascular dilator to improve blood supply to the skin and/or a fat burner to reduce absorption or digestion of fat in the digestive tract or to prevent the production of fat. The compositions and methods may optionally include chromium picolinate to facilitate entry of sugar into cells to improve fat metabolism. In one embodiment, these methods encompass administering the amounts as a pharmaceutical composition.

Abstract: An automatic tape crossover machine having two feeding mechanisms 210 to supply running 108 and new 110 tapes, respectively. A powered cutter 112 is provided through which the running tape 108 is to pass and be cut in response to a cut signal, where the cutter 112 is positioned downstream of the first tape feed mechanism 210. The machine also includes a joining mechanism 116 at which a portion of the new tape 110 is to be joined to the running tape 108 in response to a join signal. Control circuitry automatically determines whether a tape exhaustion condition has been reached and asserts the join and cut signals to join the running 108 and new 110 tapes and to cut the running tape 108, before the tape feeding mechanism is emptied to the running tape 108. The machines thus allows the automatic transition from the running tape 108 to the new tape 110, i.e. without requiring the presence or manual assistance of a human operator when joining the two tapes. In addition, the process line speed need not be altered for the crossover, thereby reducing the probability of inconsistencies in product quality. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A method and system for the downhole separation and injection of a predominately water component of the mixture produced from a naturally flowing or gas-lifted hydrocarbon well. The produced mixture is delivered to a separator located in the wellbore above an injection formation, the separator comprising a gas-liquid separator and an oil-water separator. The produced mixture is admitted to a gas-liquid separator to separate the free gas from the produced mixture. The gas-depleted produced mixture is then admitted to an oil-water separator where the produced mixture is separated into a predominately water component and a predominately hydrocarbon component. The separated gas and the predominately hydrocarbon component are delivered to the surface, separately or commingled. The predominately water is injected in the injection formation accessible through the same wellbore, and located below the separator. The predominately water component is separated at a sufficiently elevated location with respect to the injection formation to permit the predominately water component to be delivered to the injection formation under the force of gravity. This invention achieves downhole water separation and injection without having to install downhole pumps to re-inject the water contained in the produced mixture.

Abstract: A tubular prosthetic semilunar or atrioventricular heart valve is formed by cutting flat, flexible leaflets according to a pattern. The valve is constructed by aligning the side edges of adjacent leaflets so that the leaflet inner faces engage each other, and then suturing the leaflets together with successive stitches along a fold line adjacent the side edges. The stitches are placed successively from a proximal in-flow end of each leaflet toward a distal out-flow end. During operation, when the leaflets open and close, the leaflets fold along the fold line. Distal tabs extend beyond the distal end of each leaflet. The successive stitches terminate proximal of the distal tab portion so that no locked stitches are placed along the distal portion of the fold line. The tab portions of adjacent leaflets are folded over each other and sewn together to form commissural attachment tabs. The commissural tabs provide commissural attachment points to accommodate sutures and the like in order to secure the tab to a vessel wall, if a semilunar valve, and papillary muscles and/or chordae tendineae if an atrioventricular valve.
