Title: Fast state transition for a ue with reconfiguration over paging
Inventor: KITAZOE MASATO
IPC: H04W68/00
Filed: 2007-12-17
Abstract: Support fast state transition by a user equipment (UE). The UE may operate in a first state (e.g., a CELL_PCH state) in which the UE does not transmit or receive user data. The UE may receive a paging message carrying first > configuration information (identifier or physical channel parameters). The UE may transition from the first state to a second state (e.g., a CELL_DCH state) in response to receiving the paging message. The UE may determine a set of communication parameters based on the first configuration information received from the paging message and second configuration information stored, at the UE. The UE may then exchange user data based on the set of communication parameters. The UE may use default values for some parameters in order to reduce the amount of first configuration information to send in the paging message.

Title: Mountain moving engineering and gigantic cities technologies
Inventor: LEE GIDEON
IPC: A62C2/00
Filed: 2009-07-23
Abstract: Mountain Moving Engineering and Gigantic Cities technologies are new Civil Engineering technologies which can solve housing shortage problems and environmental problems caused by housing development in many parts of the world.   Imagine there is a hill without vegetations or engineering protection structures along its surfaces. After a series of heavy rainstorms, serious landslides are likely to occur along the slopes of this hill.  Landslides contain a lot of energy and can easily kill many people and bring tremendous damages to civil properties.   By using the technologies invented by Gideon Lee, a hill can be removed in a way similar to landslides but in a controlled manner. When the hill is being removed in this manner, the safety of the humans and civil properties at the bottom of the hill will be secured. At the same time, electricity will be generated by the potential energy existing inside the mountainous materials by hydroelectricity technologies.   The result is: a large volume of raw materials will be obtained at a low cost, and a piece of flat land will be exposed, too. This combination is perfect for building residential units for low income people.   The concepts of Gigantic Cities work well with Mountain Moving Engineering technologies. The large volume of cheap raw materials obtained from a steep hill using Mountain Moving Engineering technologies can be used to build a Gigantic City.   Gigantic Cities technologies can solve many environmental problems caused by housing development, for example, drainage problem due to removal of vegetations.

Further, the present composite shingle may also include transverse ribs, a depressed nailing zone, nailing zone ribs, and/or at least one alignment aid. The present composite shingle may also include spacing nibs. At least a portion of the outside face of composite shingle is textured to resemble slate or wood shake shingles. The butt end wall has a height that creates depth in composite shingle to more closely resemble true slate and shake shingles. The first side wall and second side wall generally taper from a greater height at the butt end to a lesser height at the top end. The longitudinal ribs extend downward from the bottom surface of the body shell to a common plane.  There is a plurality of rib stiffeners that also extend downward from the bottom surface of the body shell and each rib stiffener end is integral with a longitudinal rib. The depressed nailing zone may also include nailing zone ribs. These ribs strengthen the area surrounding the nailing zone.  Composite shingle may further comprise alignment aids including spacing nibs, a scale and/or a laying line. Additionally, the spacing nibs may be used in concert with a scale located on the top surface of the top surface to help the installer create offset composite shingle patterns or help make sure all the composite shingles have a uniform tab exposure. A plurality of assembled composite shingles of the present invention is also claimed as part of this invention. Finally, a method of applying multiple courses of shingles on a roof comprising the steps of providing an underlying shingle, coupling this shingle to the roof, laying an overlying shingle of the present invention on top of a least a portion of the underlying shingle and coupling the overlapping shingle to the roof is presented.

Abstract: Dental restorative composites having self-healing capabilities to repair discontinuities in the composite are provided. Dental restorative composites according to the present invention include a microsphere that encapsulates a monomer.
