Abstract: The present invention relates to methods and apparatus
for measuring the condition of skin surface, particularly a
potential condition. 
     An object of the present invention is to provide a method
and apparatus for simply measuring a potential condition of the
skin surface, particularly without imparting pain to a human.
In addition, another object of the present invention is to provide
a method for digitalizing human senses derived from stimulation
to the skin surface and a method for measuring the effect of
a drug for warding off the stimulation. 
     Means adopted for solving the problems are to measure the
potential difference between a skin section, which is floated
on the surface of a culture solution, and the culture solution,
and to impart stimulation to the skin or to add a drug further
upon measurement in order to carry out the measurement.
Furthermore, upon measuring the skin surface potential condition,
a sublingual potential is used as a standard. 
     From the foregoing, the potential condition of the skin
surface can be measured simply, particularly without imparting
pain to a human, enabling for digitalization of the condition
of stimulation to the skin surface and assessment and development
of a drug for warding off stimulation.

Abstract: A dual-zoned, three-dimensional, resilient absorbent web is disclosed
which is suitable as body-side liner for absorbent articles such as feminine
pads, diapers and the like. When used as a liner in absorbent articles, the
dual-zoned web combines the advantages of apertured films and soft,
nonwoven cover layers in one structure while still being inherently
hydrophilic. The liner comprises a web of wet-resilient, hydrophilic
basesheet having a three-dimensional topography comprising elevated
regions onto which hydrophobic matter is deposited or printed and a plurality
of spaced apart depressed regions. In a preferred embodiment, the
hydrophobic matter applied to the elevated regions of the basesheet
comprises hydrophobic fibers in a contiguous nonwoven web which has
been apertured or provided with slits or other openings, such that the
apertures or openings overlay a portion of the depressed regions. The
elevated hydrophobic regions enhance dry feel and promote fluid flow
toward the lower hydrophilic regions, which comprise the exposed
depressed regions of the basesheet. The basesheet is preferably in liquid
communication with underlying absorbent material, most preferably a
stabilized airlaid cellulosic material or compressed stabilized fluff such that
the absorbent material can wick fluid out of the basesheet by capillary
action. When soft, hydrophobic fibers are deposited on the elevated regions,
the liner also has a soft, cloth-like feel in addition to a dry feel in use.

Abstract: When an access point (2) receives radio waves from
a GPS satellite (3) and acquires its own position
information, it sends a beacon signal containing the
acquired information to a PC (1) over a wireless LAN.
If the PC (1) receives the beacon signal containing the
position information from the access point (2), it
starts initializing the wireless LAN function of the PC

information sent from the access point (2), derives a
region to which the position indicated by the position
information belongs, and updates the setting
information in a flash memory so as to conform to the
radio communication standard of the derived region. At

Abstract: An arrangement (200) and method for scalable ESD
protection of a semiconductor structure (140), a
protection structure (120) providing a discharge
transistor (110) path from an input/output node (130) to
ground or another node if a threshold voltage is reached,
wherein the discharge transistor is a self-triggered
transistor having collector/drain (220) and
emitter/source (210) regions, and a base/bulk region
(260) having one or more floating regions (240) between
the collector/drain (220) and emitter/source (210)
regions. The floating region (N or P) modulates the
threshold voltage Vt1 for ESD protection. Vt1 can be
adjusted by shifting the floating region location.
Splitting of the electric field into two parts reduces
the maximum of the electric field. Vt1 can be adjusted
volt-by-volt to suit application needs. ESD capability is
increased by better current distribution in the silicon.
This provides the advantages of reduced die size, faster
time-to-market, less redesign cost, and better ESD
performance.
