Abstract: A system is provided for delivering Internet and digital content to a variety of thin client devices. A web portal for accessing and selecting content is used in conjunction with graphical user interfaces on a personal computer for setting up and controlling the content channels. The user interfaces, scheduling, and communication management are controlled by a system control software application running on a local server with an Internet connection. A high speed local area network provides for streaming content from the Internet or local server to thin client devices. A digital audio playback device is connected to the local server via the local area network connection and decodes streamed audio files, and converts them into analog audio signals for input into a conventional stereo. Digital content is streamed automatically from the local server to another Internet playback device, based on end user content preferences and schedule selections.

Abstract: A process for producing a multi-layered article having a soft, leather-like feel comprising first introducing into a suitable mold a first liquid formulation designed to produce the top elastomeric layer on the finished article. A release agent is then applied on the elastomeric layer in the area where it is desired not to have adherence of the elastomer to the foam. Before the elastomeric layer is completely cured, a second liquid foam producing formulation, designed to produce a soft foam, is poured into the open mold. The elastomeric layer of the resulting article is integrally attached to the foam in the areas not containing the release agent.

Abstract: A method and arrangement of transferring data at high speeds over a parallel data bus provides for calibration of the data without interrupting the data communication. Consistent with one aspect of the present invention, a method of parallel data communication is provided for a circuit arrangement including a parallel arrangement of data paths for passing data in parallel between at least two nodes. The method compares a sequence of data over an additional calibration/spare path relative to a matched sequence of data being passed on one of the multiple paths. In response to detecting skewed data, the transmission time for the subject path is adjusted in response to the comparison. Other example aspects of the invention are directed to procedures for rotating the calibration procedure through each of the data paths while using the spare to maintain communication integrity, and various embodiments for controlling the calibration procedure and for detecting whether the data is skewed.

Abstract: An automated system and method for individually processing multiple specimens of particulate matter-containing liquid in respective containers. The containers are transported seriatim along a processing path to present them to, at least, a preprocessing apparatus (e.g., a mixing head), and then to a specimen acquisition apparatus, which removes preprocessed specimen fluid from the container for subsequent analytical testing or evaluation. Each apparatus is actuated in response to presentation of a container thereto so as to carry out its respective operation independently. An exemplary system can include, in sequential order, stations for container loading and unloading, container uncapping and cap disposal, specimen mixing, filter loading, specimen acquisition (e.g., by aspiration, and then slide printing), filter disposal, and container resealing. The system is capable of unattended operation for many hours at a time, and can interface with an integrated data management system to provide fully integrated specimen and information management in a complete diagnostic laboratory system.

Abstract: In a semiconductor fabrication technique, a first patterned layer (16) of nonmonocrystalline semiconductor material is created on a substructure (10, 12, and 14). An insulating layer (22) is thermally grown along the patterned layer in such a way that the upper edge of the remainder (16A) of the patterned layer forms an asperity (24). A blanket layer 26, preferably consisting of nonmonocyrstalline semiconductor material, is formed over the insulating layer. Using an etchant that attacks the blanket and patterned layers more than the insulating layer, a selective etch is performed to remove a section of the blanket layer. The etch is continued past the blanket layer to remove the underlying portion of the insulating layer located along the asperity and then, importantly, to remove the so exposed part of the asperity. The remainder (26A) of the blanket layer overlies the remainder (24A) of the asperity. The technique is particularly useful in manufacturing a floating-gate FET for an electrically erasable programmable device. The remainder of the asperity facilitates tunneling during erasure.
