Abstract: The boot has a leg and a shell with a back part (4) and a split front part (5). The opening in the front part is closed by transversal flaps (6,7) which are extended by tongues (16,17) that are joined to the sides (9,10) of the back part. Each tongue has a tab (15) extending from its lateral edge that slides in a slot (18) in the back part of the boot. The free end of the tab (15') is wider so that it can not escape from the slot even in an open position of the tongue.

Abstract: A machine for producing a web (46) of fibrous material (especially tissue or hygiene paper) has at least one pre-press (26) in the form of a shoe press, a main press (30) formed by a press roll (28) and a drying cylinder (60), an endless upper belt (12) which passes through the nips (48,90) of the pre-press and the main press, and an under-felt (50) which passes over a lower roll (38) of the pre-press. The product web (46), which is pre-formed in a former, is delivered by the upper belt (12) first to the pre-press and then to the main press. The pre-press (26), which is in the form of a shoe press having a press nip (48) which is elongated in the direction of web travel, comprises an upper shoe press unit (40) and an opposing roll (38), and the upper shoe press unit is provided with a smooth circulating flexible press belt (44). The lower roll (38) is grooved. The upper belt (12) is a relatively dense upper felt having a water permeability which is less than that of the lower felt (50), but the upper belt is capable of removing further water from the web in the main press (30) formed on the drying cylinder (60). The press roll (28) forming part of the main press (30) has a perforated and/or grooved surface to accept the water removed at this stage.

Abstract: Oleamide is an endogenous fatty acid primary amide that possesses sleep-inducing properties in animals and has been shown to effect seratonergic systems and block gap junction communication in a structurally specific manner. Certain agents can serve both as an oleamide agonist and as an inhibitor of fatty acid amide hydrolase. Fatty acid amide hydrolase is responsible for the rapid inactivation of oleamide in vivo. The structural features of oleamide required for inhibition of gap junction-mediated chemical and electrical transmission in rat glial cells are defined. Effective inhibitors fall into two classes of fatty acid primary amides of which oleamide and arachidonamide are the prototypical members. Of these two, oleamide constitutes the most effective and its structural requirements for inhibition of the gap junction are well defined. It requires a chain length of 16-24 carbons of which 16-18 carbons appears optimal, a polarized terminal carbonyl group capable of accepting but not necessarily donating a hydrogen bond, a  DELTA 9 cis double bond, and a hydrophobic methyl terminus. Within these constraints, a range of modifications are possible, many of which may with enhanced in vivo properties.
