Abstract: Précis Le jeu "Double Balle" se mène sur le terrain sportif avec les dimentions 50m x 100m (Le schéma N1) ou 50m x 50m (Le schéma N2). Le numéros de 1 au 12 sur le schéma signivient la disposition et le nombre des jeueurs de chaque équipe participante. Tous les jeueurs de l'equipe, sauf l'attaquant, pendant le jeu sont les maitres des creux-maisons jusqu'à ce que la base du bâton de l'attaquant des adversaires ne descend dans une creux-maison libre du bâton du jeueur. Dans ce cas, le jeueur abandonne le jeu jusqu'à ce que la balle des adversaires atteint le creux "B". L'attaquant ne peut pas occuper la creux-maison si pendant qu'y trouve la base du bâton du jeueur d'un équipe des adversaires. Le jeu se mène avec les deux balle simultanement. L'attaquant de chaque équipe doit atteindre avec la balle les creux "A" et "B" ce qui apporte les points à l'équipe. Pour que cela soit plus facile, l'attaquant peut fair abandonner les jeueurs des adversaires en occupant leurs creux-maisons. Le but des autres jeueurs c'est de ne pas permettre que la balle des adversaires atteint les creux "A" et "B", en aidant à son attaquant et en suivant que l'attaquant des adversaires ne s'occupe leurs creux-maisons. La durée du jeu - 2 periode de 45 minute chacune.

Abstract: The self-contained device for cleaning and coating hold surfaces in a bulk carrier includes four major components, namely a horizontally mobile vertical tower (e.g., with walking beams for permitting the device to move into the four corners of the hold into which it has been lowered), a vertical trolley for permitting the workers to reach with their equipment all elevations within the hold, a horizontal trolley for permitting the workers to achieve optimum proximity to a wall surface, and cleaning and coating support equipment and systems.      By preference, the device can be lifted into and out of the cargo hold altogether, or in a maximum of two sections, including a base section (which includes the base of the vertical tower, walking beams, all required systems for cleaning and coating, worker air supply and electrical power, as well as lower parts of distribution systems, with connectors), and an upper section (which includes a variable height upper vertical tower, vertical trolley, variable extension horizontal trolley, vertical trolley hoist mechanism, horizontal trolley extension mechanism, and upper parts of distribution systems, with connectors). The upper section is stackable on the base.      The walkway on the horizontal trolley extends on all four sides, in order to permit working from at least two sides simultaneously for each of four positions of the base on the bottom of the hold. For cleaning and coating, automated abrasive blasting equipment and automated coating spraying equipment is provided for horizontal travel along each of the four sides of the horizontal trolley, e.g., on the safety rail.

Abstract: Combinations   of   inorganic   corrosion-protection, passivating chemical treatment, and selected organic-type coatings of flat-rolled mild steel of selected thickness gauge and mechanical properties, provide for fabrication of composite-coated  unitary  sheet  metal  structures  for lightweight  and  durable  roof  covering.    Weathertight features with provisions for subsurface air circulation, free  of  liquid  from  precipitation,  are  provided  by fabricating interfitting slot configurations on four linear sides of a viewable tab portion.  Methods of fabrication provide for ease of assembly while providing configurations which compensate for barriers to entry of liquids where linearly-extending  slots  interfit  during  horizontally-extended  assembly,  and provide a  horizontally-oriented appearance  for  viewable  tab  portions  throughout  a horizontally-extended assembly of unitary flat-rolled sheet metal roof covering structures.
Patent CA-2243247-A1 (CA)
Title: Tagging of waterborne compositions with oil-soluble markers
Inventor: FUERHOLZER JAMES J
IPC: G01N31/22
Filed: 1998-07-15
Abstract: A water-immiscible marker is dissolved in polyethylene glycol or other suitable carrier, and the marker so dissolved is added to a waterborne composition which is used as an additive to a waterborne or water processable composition. Subsequently, the marker is either extracted with a non-polar solvent or detected by means of a surface spot test. From the non-polar solvent, the marker is extracted with an acidic aqueous solution or an alkaline aqueous solution, depending upon the marker, and color-developed. Likewise, a surface spot test can detect the presence of the marker by, if necessary, first softening the marked surface to be tested either chemically or by thermal means, and developing a color with a color-developing reagent placed on the exposed surface. Applications can include the marking of paint, coatings, wax emulsions and water soluble/dispersable additives commonly used in water based applications, e.g., cement additives.
