Abstract: A wallpaper removing steamer can comprise a base provided at each corner with suction cups which are mechanically operated by rotatable levers connected to a common actuator arm. Such mechanically operated suction cups seal efficiently with smooth, planar surfaces. However, local areas of wall are often by no means flat and an effective suction action is not always achieved. <??>The present invention provides a wallpaper removing steamer (1) comprising a steam applicator assembly mounted on a base (2) for dispensing steam on receipt thereof. Four suction cups (6) are provided at each corner of the base (2) and are adapted to secure the base (2) to a wall papered surface, each suction cup (6) being connected to a vacuum supply (12, 17, 18, 19, 20). <??>The use of a vacuum supply (12, 17, 18, 19, 20) enables suction cups (6) of a less rigid construction to be employed than those which are mechanically operated. The use of more compliant cups (6) can facilitate self-adjustment of the cups (6) to an uneven wall surface. The cups (6) can be of concertina form and can be provided with an annular, flexible closed-cell foam pad (16) around their mouths to assist in sealing against an irregular surface. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The present invention is a temporary filter device for use during interventional procedures, such as angioplasty or stent deployment. A braided filter (25) is mounted near the distal end of a steerable guidewire (20), which guides a therapeutic catheter (10). An actuator rod (180) slides over the guidewire and is removably connected to the filter. The rod controls relative displacement of the filter ends, causing transformation of the filter between a deployed configuration and a collapsed configuration. Wire (95) having enhanced radio-pacity is included in the filter to provide visualization under fluoroscopy. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A method and system for connecting a client to a database managed by a network of computer systems having a plurality of database management system (DBMS) members includes providing a shared network address for the plurality of DBMS members, which is used by the client to connect to an active DBMS member of the plurality of DBMS members. Through the aspects of the present invention, the shared network address allows the client to connect, via a network router, to any one of the plurality of DBMS members so long as one member is active. Once the client is connected to one member, the member sends to the client a list of all active members and their respective workloads. The list also includes member-specific network addresses corresponding to each member so that the client can distribute work evenly across the active members and also perform a resynchronization process with a DBMS member after a first connection with the DBMS member has been interrupted.

Abstract: A method up-link fade control for a satellite not having AGC, includes the steps of determining characteristics for correcting channel non-linearity, each characteristic being determined for a different value of up-link fade. A signal representative of up-link fade is determined by a beacon receiver and the signal is associated with a correction characteristic for the up-link fade. The correction characteristic associated with the signal is applied to a corrector of a modulator such that the corrector changes the modulator characteristics to modify constellation parameters at a satellite receiver.
