Abstract: Cette invention est un appareil et un procédé de transformation d'un bonnet classique (10) en un article vestimentaire tubulaire (36) pour extérieur. Le bonnet comprend une couche extérieure souple (12), une couche intérieure souple (14) formant ensemble une partie de calotte (16), et une extrémité ouverte (18). Une ouverture est positionnée sur et définie par soit la couche intérieure (14) soit la couche extérieure (12). Dans une première utilisation, l'extrémité ouverte (28) de la couche intérieure (14) est adaptée pour être portée par un porteur de manière que la partie de calotte de la couche intérieure (14) recouvre la partie formant couronne du porteur. Pour transformer le bonnet en article vestimentaire tubulaire pour extérieur, la couche ne contenant pas d'ouverture (28) est tirée complètement à travers l'ouverture pour former un article vestimentaire tubulaire pour extérieur présentant une première extrémité (38) et une seconde extrémité (40). L'article tubulaire (36) est adaptable pour être porté par le porteur sous la forme d'un bandeau (42) ou d'une cagoule tour de cou (36, 42).

Abstract: An apparatus, program product and method utilize an event-driven communica-tions interface to support communications between multiple logical partitions (40, 42, and 44) in a logically-partitioned computer.  The event-driven communications interface is at least partially disposed within a partition manager (46) that is accessible to each of the logical partitions (40, 42, and 44). Events are typically passed between logical partitions (40, 42, and 44) in the form of messages that are passed first from a source logical partition that initiates the event, through the partition manager (46), and then to a target logical par-tition to which the event is directed, while maintaining the independent address spaces associated with the logical partitions (40, 42, and 44).

Abstract: A bi-fuel engine has a gaseous fuel mode engine start strategy that delivers a calibrated amount of supplemental gasoline during engine starting and initial gaseous fuel engine runs. The strategy is embodied in an algorithm employing variables including start of supplemental gasoline fueling, end of supplemental gasoline fueling, ramp-in period of supplemental gasoline fueling, ramp-out period of supplemental gasoline fueling, and the fraction of supplemental gasoline fuel to be delivered relative to that which is normally delivered during a conventional gasoline start. The algorithm differentiates between hot and cold engine starts for determining how much supplemental gasoline is to be delivered during gaseous fuel starts, wherein hot starts occur before substantially complete diffusion of gaseous fuel in the intake system, and cold starts occur after diffusion of gaseous fuel in the intake system is substantially complete. Time required for substantially complete diffusion depends on geometry of the intake system. The gaseous fuel start strategy allows for modification (i.e. calibration) of criteria used for hot and cold start determination for different vehicles.

Abstract: L'invention concerne une brosse à mascara (10) qui comporte une partie centrale formée d'un fil métallique torsadé supportant plusieurs poils longs et courts et régulièrement disposés dans le sens radial. Les pointes des poils longs définissent une enveloppe extérieure de la brosse. Les poils longs et courts sont intercalés de telle sorte que les pointes des poils courts forment une couche espacée vers l'intérieur par rapport à l'enveloppe extérieure (21). Cette brosse peut être fabriquée quelle que soit la rigidité des poils et de ce fait, les poils courts présentent un certain degré de souplesse pour une longueur donnée qui est supérieure ou égale à un degré de souplesse déterminé pour une longueur donnée des longs poils. Cette brosse est fabriquée en formant d'abord une ébauche de brosse (45). Cette ébauche est fabriqué en plaçant plusieurs poils (17) de longueur sensiblement équivalente entre deux segments de fil métallique parallèle (40, 41). Ces segments sont initialement torsadés de manière suffisante pour fixer les poils en vue des étapes ultérieures. Après le tordage initial, les poils présentant leur longueur d'origine définissent l'enveloppe extérieure, ou les poils peuvent être coupés pour définir l'enveloppe extérieure et finir l'ébauche de la brosse. Les poils courts sont formés à partir d'une partie des poils plus longs en découpant une série de rainures (43) longitudinales espacées de manière circonférentielle dans l'enveloppe extérieure de l'ébauche de brosse. Les segments de fil métallique sont en outre torsadés pour déplacer et disperser les poils courts parmi les poils longs, de telle sorte que les pointes des poils courts définissent une couche espacée vers l'intérieur par rapport aux pointes des poils longs.

Abstract: An improved cruciform or cross parachute is formed by attaching the adjacent edges of the lateral arms (14, 16, 18, 20) to each other to form a three- dimensional canopy (10), when inflated, which is substantially square at the top and substantially round at the lower edge. The attachment of the adjacen t edges of the arms are such as to provide generally vertical openings or vent s (36) through which air can flow outwardly from underneath the canopy, which form "corner air flow jets", thus allowing use of zero or near zero porosity fabric for constructing the canopy. Attachment of the adjacent edges of the arms at their outer tips forms a continuous hem at the lower edge of the canopy which eases packing and improves reliability. Arm air flow jets of U. S. Patent No. 5,839,695 may also be included in addition to the corner air flow jets formed by attaching the adjacent arm side edges. Air flow from undernea th the canopy through the air flow jets should be sufficient to achieve a degre e of flight stability for the parachute of .plusmn.50 , or less, when using a zero or near zero porosity fabric for the canopy.

Abstract: Lighting systems comprising a spectrum former upstream from a reflective pixelated spatial light modulator (reflective SLM), the SLM reflecting substantially all of the light in the spectrum into at least two different light paths, that do not reflect back to the light source or the spectrum former. At least one of the light paths acts as a projection light path and transmits desired light out of the lighting system. The lighting systems provide virtually any desired color(s) and intensity(s) of light, and avoid overheating problems by deflecting unwanted light and other electromagnetic radiation out of the system or to a heat management system. The systems can be part of another system, a luminaire, or any other suitable light source. The systems can provide virtually any desired light, from the light seen at the break of morning to specialized light for treating cancer or psoriasis, and may change color and intensity at speeds that are perceptually instantaneous.
