Abstract: A concrete construction comprising a bottom wall and a plurality of sidewall s extending upright from the bottom wall, each sidewall being made of concrete  and having a generally overall corrugated cross section with alternating recesses and ridges extending in a substantially vertical direction. The construction further comprises a top wall intersecting the sidewalls at uppe r edges thereof, the top wall being made of concrete and having a top face generally parallel to an under face, the under face having a generally corrugated relief with alternating recesses and ridges extending in a substantially horizontal direction. This construction is characterized in th at it is an overall shell-like monolithic construction with an overall generall y corrugated configuration. The overall corrugated configuration of the walls,  the ceiling and the floor allows the thickness of the walls to be greatly reduced without reducing the strength of the construction. On the contrary this configuration allows an increase in the strength of the building while at the same time allowing a great reduction of the weight thereof and an increa se in the moment of inertia.

Title: Hernia prosthesis
Inventor: NICOLO ENRICO
IPC: A61F2/02
Filed: 2000-07-28
Granted: 2007-01-09
Abstract: A prosthesis and a method for repairing a tissue or muscle wall defect, such as an inguinal hernia, near a cord-like structure, such as the spermatic cord. The prosthesis comprises a layer of repair fabric having a cord opening therethrough that is adapted to receive the cord-like structure when the prosthesis is implanted at the repair site. The prosthesis also includes a cord protector that is attachable to the repair fabric at the opening to isolate the cord-like structure from the fabric in proximity to the opening. The repair fabric may be formed from a material which is susceptible to the formation of adhesions with sensitive tissue and organs. The cord protector may be formed from material which inhibits the formation of adhesions with sensitive tissue and organs. The cord protector may overlie a portion of at least one of the first and second surfaces of the repair fabric. The cord protector may extend substantially farther away from the opening edge on one of the first and second surfaces than on the other of the first and second surfaces. The cord protector may be configured as an insert that is separate from and attachable to the repair fabric. Alternatively, the cord protector may be integral with the repair fabric to form a composite prosthesis.

Abstract: The present disclosed system is directed toward a communication and management system that dynamically targets network devices for content deployment, such as application programs, device drivers, configuration files, and registry subhives.  Moreover, the present system targets users of network devices for promotions, such as advertisements offered by Internet e-commerce sites. Promotions are generally icons or graphic images with links to host web servers overlaying a video display, but also includes audio and video clips or data streams. Network devices and their users are targeted through user profiles. User profiles are created when network devices register with the system server and are continually updated with information provided by user activity and event logs that are periodically uploaded from each device.  A scalable messaging system provides for data transmission between the system server and among the network devices such that it is neutral as to the specific hardware platforms on which it is implemented.
