Abstract: A balloon catheter with improved balloon orientation includes a head, a catheter segment extending from the head, and a balloon disposed on the catheter segment opposite the head. Preferably, the balloon is attached to the exterior of the catheter segment at a proximal location and to the interior of the catheter segment at a distal location to thereby form a balloon which extends distally from the distal end of the catheter segment when inflated. The improved orientation of the balloon helps to prevent contact between the distal end of the catheter segment and anatomical structures of the user, thereby reducing irritation.

Abstract: A series resonant inductive pickup has a bi-directional solid state switch in series with an inductor and a capacitor is controlled by switch control elements capable of causing the switching elements to repetitively be in either an open or a closed state, so that by varying the closed: open ratio of the switch the time-averaged amount of power picked up by the power pickup can be controlled. Switch is controlled by output of a voltage comparing circuit. A reference voltage source provides a basis for comparison of some fraction of a supply voltage in order to cause the switch to operate. The magnitude of capacitance in relation to the current drawn by the load determines the repetition rate of ON or OFF commands to the switch. If the current drawn by the load tends to zero, the proportion of time during which the switch is open will tend to 100%.

Abstract: An electrostatic fluid accelerator having a multiplicity of closely spaced corona electrodes. The close spacing of such corona electrodes is obtainable because such corona electrodes are isolated from one another with exciting electrodes. Either the exciting electrode must be placed asymmetrically between adjacent corona electrodes or an accelerating electrode must be employed. The accelerating electrode can be either an attracting or a repelling electrode. Preferably, the voltage between the corona electrodes and the exciting electrodes is maintained between the corona onset voltage and the breakdown voltage with a flexible top high-voltage power supply. Optionally, however, the voltage between the corona electrodes and the exciting electrodes can be varied, even outside the range between the corona onset voltage and the breakdown voltage, in to vary the flow of fluid. And, to achieve the greatest flow of fluid, multiple stages of the individual Electrostatic Fluid Accelerator are utilized with a collecting electrode between successive stages in order to preclude substantially all ions and other electrically charged particles from passing to the next stage, where they would tend to be repelled and thereby impair the movement of the fluid. Finally, constructing the exciting electrode in the form of a plate that extends downstream with respect to the desired direction of fluid flow also assures that more ions and, consequently, more fluid particles flow downstream.

Abstract: A replication process provides fault tolerance for a continuous media stream in a computer network. In one embodiment, the original or source signal is sent to several splitters which, in turn, each make copies of the signal and send the copies into a second layer of devices, which are referred to as "concentrators." A given concentrator receives as input one or more copies of the source signal. In a preferred embodiment, a given concentrator receives two copies of the source signal from at least two different splitters. The concentrators process the incoming streaming signal copies, for example, by merging them into a single or composite copy of the original source signal according to a given processing algorithm. The output of a given concentrator may then be fed into a splitter, with the process then being repeated if desired to make an arbitrary large number of copies of the signal. At the end of the replication process, the output of a splitter or a concentrator is fed directly or indirectly to an end user. The replication process is fault-tolerant, and thus the end user's signal is not interrupted regardless of signal or equipment problems within the distribution mechanism.

Abstract: Data items are selected for inclusion in a data set so as to discourage a transmission of the entire set. Each data item includes section(s) which constitute(s) the complete data set. Each section contains a watermark that includes an identifier of the section, and an identifier of the data set. The identifier of the section may be the address of the section, and the identifier of the data set may be the serial number and an indicator of the total size of the data set. The presence of the data set is confirmed by checking the watermarks of randomly selected sections to verify that the original section that formed the data set is present. If a section is discovered to be missing or altered, subsequent processing of data items of the data set is prevented. The identifiers may be stored as a combination of robust and fragile watermarks.

The remaining surface of each electrode abuts a conductive nonporous bipolar plate having grooves cut therein. Wicking strands composed of a trilobed fiber are located in between each catalyst layer and the adjacent PEM, and arranged in a repetitive pattern such that the strands do not cross over each other. Each wicking strand abutting the PEM surface facing the anode electrode has one end situated in a reservoir of liquid water. Each wicking strand abutting the PEM surface facing the cathode electrode drains into an exhaust reservoir.

Abstract: An attachable breast form enhancement system comprising a pair of breast forms adjoined by a connector. The breast forms have an interior surface with a pressure sensitive adhesive layer that adjoins to the user's breasts. The pressure sensitive adhesive layer can be a permanently grown pressure sensitive adhesive that has an adhesion force to the breast forms that is greater than a cohesion force to the user's breasts. The connector adjoins the separated breast forms by attaching to the inner sides of the breast forms and pulling the user's breasts together. The connector can be either permanently or removably attached to the breast forms. Several different configurations of breast forms and connectors are available to achieve the benefits of the present breast form system. The improved breast form system allows a user to eliminate use of traditional bras by simply adhering the pair of breast forms to the user's breasts/skin, and then adjoining the breast forms with the connector. The breast form system provides for enhancement of breast size and shape, as well as provides for customization of breast cleavage and push-up enhancement. <IMAGE>
