Abstract: A toner supply roll (26, 62) including a cylindrical soft
polyurethane sponge structure (34, 66) formed on an outer
circumferential surface of a metal shaft (32, 64) by foam
molding of a polyurethane material in a mold cavity (56, 86)
of a mold (50). The sponge structure having hardness of 350g
or lower includes a skin layer (36, 69) having a network of
cells (38, 68) and openings (40, 70) open in its outer
circumferential surface and communicating with the
respective cells located adjacent to the skin layer, such
that the openings are substantially aligned with central
portions of the cells in axial and circumferential
directions of the sponge structure. Each opening has a size
of 100-800µm, and a total area of the openings is at least
20% of the total surface area of the skin layer. The sponge
structure has a plurality of protrusions (35, 74) formed on
the outer circumferential surface of the skin layer so as to
extend linearly or helically in the axial direction of the
sponge structure. The protrusions have a height of 20-3000µm
and are arranged in a circumferential direction of the
sponge structure with a pitch of 300-3000µm, so that the
skin layer is provided with recesses (37, 72) each
interposed between the adjacent protrusions. Methods of
producing the roll are also disclosed.

Abstract: As an electrically conductive paste for via-holes, an organic vehicle and an electrically
conductive metal powder 1 coated with an insoluble resin 2 which is insoluble
in the organic vehicle are prepared. Filling via-holes with the electrically conductive
paste for via-holes produces a monolithic ceramic. Filling characteristics of the
electrically conductive paste into via-holes are improved, and cracks and elevations
of the conductive metal and cracks of the ceramic barely form during the baking
step. Further, the resulting monolithic ceramic substrate can maintain excellent
soldering wettability and plating characteristics.

Abstract: A method for matching obejcts based on spatial layout of regions based on a shape
similarity model for detecting similarity between general 2D objects. The method uses the
shape similarity model to determine if two obejcts are similar by logical region generation
in which logical regions are automatically derived from information in the obejcts to be
matched, region correspondence, in which a correspondence is established between the
regions on the obejcts, pose computation in which the individual transforms relating
corresponding regions are recovered, and pose verification in which the extent of spatial
similarity is measured by projecting one document onto the other using the computed pose
parameters. The method of the invention can be carried out in a microprocessor-based
system capable of being programmed to carry out the method of the invention.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for evolving a polynucleotide encoding a
plurality of genes, e.g. multiple genes forming a multicomponent pathway. The
method involves shuffling of polynucleotides by conducting a polynucleotide
amplification process on overlapping segments of a population of variants of a
polynucleotide encoding a plurality of genes under conditions whereby one segment
serves as a template for extension of another segment to generate a population of
recombinant polynucleotides. This population is screened for a recombinant
polynucleotide encoding a plurality of genes having a desired property.

Abstract: A printed circuit assembly card removal system (106) comprises an ejection card (108)
including at least a first ejector (110a) extending from the surface of the ejection card, the
ejector having a first surface (112a) for pressing against the edge of the PCA card to be
removed, and an ejection card holder (114a) for mechanically supporting the ejection card.
To remove the PCA, the ejection card is pulled outward causing the ejector to apply a force to
the edge of the PCA card to be removed, forcing the card edge fingers of the PCA card out of
the PCA connector. The system removes a PCA card from a powered on computer system
(102) while minimizing damage to the computer system and to the individual removing the
PCA.

Abstract: A pager which can display base time in the base area of the pager along with displaying corrected local time in an area in which the pager is located is presented. The pager receives a country code and an area code transmitted by a paging system. A system information detection section (5) judges whether or not the received country code and area code are the same as a country code and an area code corresponding to the base area of the pager. If the received country code and area code did not match, the CPU (7) of the pager searches a time difference table (13) for a piece of time difference information, based on the received country code and area code. The CPU (7) judges whether or not the time difference information acquired by the search is the same as time difference information which has been stored in a time difference information memory section (14). If the time difference information acquired by the search is not the same, the local time which is clocked by a local clock section (12) is corrected based on the acquired time difference information and the base time which is clocked by a base clock section (11). The CPU (7) displays the local time clocked by the local clock section (12) and the base time clocked by the base clock section (11) on an LCD (10).
