Abstract: An intravenous catheter system including a catheter defining an internal
passage and a trocar having an exposed sharpened end extending from the
catheter passage when in an extended position, for use in placing the catheter
into a blood vessel of a patient, the improvement comprising:
   an insertion device for manual engagement by a user for use in
inserting the sharpened end of the trocar into the patient's blood vessel to
establish communication therewith by the catheter, the insertion device
including structure defining an internal passage, wherein the trocar is
releasably engaged with the insertion device when in its extended position so
as to extend outwardly from the internal passage and through the catheter
passage;   bias means interconnected between the insertion device and the trocar
for urging retraction of the trocar from its extended position into the catheter
passage; and   a releasable retainer mechanism for retaining the trocar in its extended
position prior to and during insertion of the catheter and the trocar sharpened
end into the blood vessel, and for releasing engagement between the trocar
and the insertion device in response to manual manipulation of the insertion
device by the user after placement of the catheter into the blood vessel, to
provide retraction of the trocar from its extended position into the catheter
passage under the influence of the bias means,   said insertion device comprises a pair of wings pivotably mounted for
movement between a first position in which the wings are positioned 
substantially together and a second position in which the wings are moved
apart, wherein manual movement of the wings between the first and second
positions functions to actuate the releasable retainer mechanism to release
engagement between the trocar and the insertion device to provide retraction
of the trocar from its extended position.

Abstract: A mail retrieval moderator instructs an image memory
usage rate calculator to calculate a usage rate of an
image memory, and determines whether the usage rage is
greater than or equal to 98%. When the answer is "Yes",
there is a risk that the image memory will have a memory
overflow if more e-mail is retrieved from the POP3 server.
Thus, a timer is reset and the control returns to ST501.
When the answer is "No", there is no risk that the image
memory will have a memory overflow even if more e-mail
is retrieved from the POP3 server. Thus, e-mail is
retrieved from the POP3 server. Accordingly, the
apparatus and method for receiving e-mail is capable of
securely retrieving e-mail from the mail server, even
with a relatively small memory capacity.

Abstract: In an adaptive array antenna receiving apparatus, signal to
interference ratio (SIR) measuring units are provided in signal
processing units, respectively. The SIR measuring units measure
signal to interference ratios of existing fingers to supply the measured
results for an antenna weight succession processing unit. The
antenna weight succession processing unit selects one of the existing
