Abstract: Music is blanket transmitted (for example, via satellite downlink transmission) to each customer's user station where selected music files are recorded. Customers preselect from a list of available music in advance using an interactive screen selector, and pay only for music that they choose to playback for their enjoyment. An antipiracy “ID tag” is woven into the recorded music so that any illegal copies therefrom may be traced to the purchase transaction. Music is transmitted on a fixed schedule or through an active scheduling process that monitors music requests from all or a subset of satellite receivers and adjust scheduling according to demand for various CD's. Receivers store selections that are likely to be preferred by a specific customer. In those instances where weather conditions, motion of atmospheric layers or dish obstructions result in data loss, the system downloads the next transmission of the requested CD and uses both transmissions to produce a “good copy”. In conjunction with the blanket 20 transmission of more popular music, an automated CD manufacturing facility may be provided to manufacture CD's that are not frequently requested and distribute them by ground transportation.

Abstract: Described are polysiloxane compositions that are obtainable in 2 steps. The first step comprises reacting a linear organopolysiloxane which contains Si-H bonds with a compound that has a terminal C=C double bond and a polyoxyalkylene chain. This reaction is carried out in such a way that Si-H bonds are still present in the resultant product. The second step comprises adding a base or water and an acid to the resultant product. The hydrophilic properties of the resultant polysiloxane compositions can be influenced in a specific manner. The compositions are useful for treating fiber materials, especially textile fabrics. The effects obtained are notable for good durability. Further groups may be incorporated into the polysiloxanes to open up further applications.

Abstract: A digital frying pan (10), provides temperature and/or food doneness information associated with food cooked within the pan. A thermal sensor (11) coupled with the pan senses temperature and generates corresponding signals, and processing electronics coupled with the sensor convert the signals to data for display on a LCD. A warning buzzer (82) or LED warns the user of completed cooking. The frying pan may be programmed to desired food types or personal temperatures or food doneness options. The invention also provides a remote sensing food doneness system for remotely viewing and then determining food temperature and/or food doneness. The remote system uses thermal imaging optics and thermal sensing techniques to remotely sense food temperature. Preferably a second optical element images the food onto a CCD to display an image of the food to a user. The system is mounted by a user who views the CCD to ensure appropriate placement in line of sight from the food. A warning is generated by the system to indicate food doneness or desired temperature.

Abstract: A PET device for providing an excellent quantitative feature by a proper correction of a scattered radiation effect while enhancing a resolution in a restructured image and keeping a good photon pair detection sensitivity. A judging unit (52) judges whether or not a line connecting mutually respective light receiving surfaces (15b) of a pair of photon detecting elements (15a) that has detected photon pair simultaneously crosses any one of slice collimators (21n). Coincidence information for which it is judged that the line crosses none of the slice collimators (21n) is stored in a first coincidence information storing unit (53), and a signal sinogram is generated. Coincidence information for which it is judged that the line crosses any one of the slice collimators (21n) is stored in a second coincidence information storing unit (54), and a scattered sinogram is generated. An image restructuring unit (60) corrects the effect of a scattered component in a signal sinogram based on a scattered sinogram, and an image is restructured based on this corrected signal sinogram.

Abstract: The present invention relates to air bag tethers and to a pattern-wise arrangement of such tethers in relation to air bag panels on a fabric blank. In one embodiment, the front tether panel is comprised of two or more tether segments that cut in alignment with the warp and the fill of the fabric blank, while the rear tether panel is comprised of two or more tether segments that are cut on the bias with respect to the warp and the fill of the fabric blank. The front and rear tether panels are then connected to one another to form a functional tether system. This multiple-segment construction, with its bias-cut segments, decreases the amount of fabric that is used in the manufacture of the air bag and tethers, while providing sufficient elongation for the tether system to be functional.

Abstract: The present invention relates to methods for altering the fatty acid composition in milk or tissue fat directly derived from a milk producing ruminant The methods consist of administering to said milk producing ruminant a suitable amount of a chemical compound selected from the vitamin E family, or a structurally or functionally related compound or derivative thereof. At high doses, vitamin E influences ruminal biohydrogenation and allows the production of milk or tissue fat with a highly desirable fatty acid profile: high trans-11 C18:1, high cis-9, trans-11 C18:02 (CLA), low trans-10 C18:1. Methods are disclosed to obtain said desirable fatty acid profile, thereby improving the nutritional benefits to human health associated with CLA. Milk and tissue fat obtained by said methods are also disclosed. Dietary intakes of cis-9, trans-11 C18:2 CLA and trans-11 C18:1 fatty acids in milk or meat, or products thereof, produced in accordance with the present invention in ruminant animals, can be effective in preventing cancer in different sites, reduce risk of coronary heart disease and to enhance immune function.
