Abstract: An absorbent article includes a generally reduced length
absorbent assembly positioned between a moisture barrier and a
bodyside liner. The moisture barrier and the bodyside liner
extend beyond the absorbent assembly and define at least one
waist region with a length dimension greater than about 10
centimeters. A moisture control layer is present in from about
25 to 100 percent of the area of the first waist region. The
moisture control layer is configured to accommodate liquid that
may be present in the waist region as a result of condensation
or perspiration and also limit the transport of liquid from the
absorbent assembly into the waist region.

Abstract: A regenerative furnace without flue gas
circulation to the regenerator beds is heated by
combusting synthesis gas with an oxidant. The
synthesis gas is produced from steam and methane in a
first regenerator bed, heated in the previous cycle
while a second regenerator bed, cooled in the previous
cycle, is heated by passing through it a hot flue gas
from a source other than the furnace. Once the first
regenerator bed is cooled through the endothermic
chemical reaction of the steam and methane, it is
heated by hot flue gas, while steam and methane are
reacted in the second, now hot, bed thereby cooling it.

Abstract: A design for constructing an input circuit to receive and process an electrical signal, such as a voltage signal from a voltage source, where the input circuit has an extremely high resistance of at least 10<11 >ohms and is located on a printed circuit board. A first area of the printed circuit board carrying components of the input circuit is separated from a second area surrounding or contiguous to it by a channel-shaped recess to preserve the high resistance of the circuit even under operating conditions and at high relative humidity. The circuit is configured in such a way that the channel-shaped recess terminates in the interior of the printed circuit board and is extended in the direction of the thickness of the printed circuit board immediately up to a moisture-impermeable barrier layer which underlies the first area of the printed circuit board.

Abstract: An compact imaging apparatus having an OCT function is
provided. An image formed of the illuminating-light reflected
from a examination area is displayed on a monitor. A signal-light
for obtaining an optical tomographic image is guided in a fiber
through an insertion portion and projected onto a living tissue
measurement area by an illuminating lens. The measurement area
is scanned with the signal-light by a Piezo actuator moving the
output face of the fiber. An OCT obtaining-portion obtains and
displays on a monitor an optical tomographic image by using the
interference caused by the signal-light reflected from the
measurement area and a reference-light. By performing the scanning
with the signal-light using an image-obtaining lens, the need
to insert a probe for obtaining an optical tomographic image
through a forceps port is eliminated. Therefore, the number of
required forceps ports is reduced, and the insertion portion can
be made thin.

Abstract: Disclosed is an apparatus for stopping iterative decoding in a turbo
decoder performing iterative decoding on a received frame comprised of
information bits and then outputting the iteratively decoded results. A turbo
decoder sequentially outputs absolute LLR (Log Likelihood Ratio) values
associated with the respective information bits of the received frame by the
iterative decoding, and stops the iterative decoding in response to a stop
command for the iterative decoding. A minimum LLR detector selects a
minimum value M(i) among the sequentially output absolute LLR values. A
controller issues a command to stop the iterative decoding, if the minimum value
M(i) is larger than a first threshold determined based on a minimum value F min 
among absolute LLR values output through previous iterative decoding.
