Abstract: A suspension assembly has a pair of suspension arms, namely a forward suspension arm (2) and a rear suspension arm (3). Each suspension arm is pivotally mounted on a housing (4) containing spring means (5,6) associated with each of the suspension arms. A wheel hub assembly (9) is mounted at an outer end of each suspension arm. An inner end of each suspension arm is connected by a pivot shaft (11) with a lower end of an associated lever arm (12) mounted within the housing. An upper end (13) of the lever arm is connected to the spring means. The spring means opposes pivotal movement of the suspension arm away from a neutral position. Mounting flanges on the housing allow the assembly to be bolted to a floor of a vehicle and adjusted for correct alignment on the vehicle. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The present invention relates to a new solvent composition useful in the process of manufacturing an optical recording medium. The invention provides a new liquid composition comprising from 0.1 to 20% by weight of a dye having a solid state absorption band maximum in the spectral region from 300 to 800 nm, from 0.5 to 99.9% by weight of a compound of formula (I), wherein R1 to R8 are H, CH3 or C2H5, with the proviso that the total number of carbon atoms in R1 to R8 is 0, 1 or 2, and optionally from 0 to 99.4% by weight of one or more further components, all based on the weight of the solution. The instant solvent composition enables to manufacture an optical recording medium of a single recording layer type capable of recording and playing a large volume of information using commercially available compact disc recorders and players and of superior performance in an amazing wide range of drive speeds. A further subject-matter is an optical recording disk with improved groove filling and preferably particular groove geometry.

Abstract: A tennis game system includes a game machine connected to a television set via an AV cable, and a racket-shaped input device for inputting operation to the game machine. A game player instructs a ball striking player to strike a ball on a monitor screen by operating the racket-shaped input device. At this time, a game processor included in the game machine calculates a predicted return position of a ball returned by the opposite player, compares a current position of the ball striking player with the predicted return position, and judges whether the predicted return position is within a ball strikable range for the ball striking player. If a judgment means judges that the predicted return position is out of the ball strikable range, a ball striking position movement means, i.e. the game processor moves the ball striking position. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A common bundling tape (T) to be used for bundling bank notes of different denominations is held in a tape reel (14). A printing mechanism (21) is disposed on a tape feed passage (20) to print the bundling tape (T) with a mark indicating the denomination of bank notes. The printing mechanism (21) prints a mark indicating the denomination of bank notes of a bank note stack (P) on the substantially whole part of the outermost layer of the bundling tape bundling the bank notes when the bundling tape is fed. After winding the printed bundling tape (T) round the bank note stack (P), a tape carrying system (17) is reversed to take up a slack in the bundling tape (T) wound round the bank note stack (P) and tighten the bundling tape (T). Subsequently, a tape cutter (10) cuts off the bundling tape (T) not used for bundling the bank note stack (P) and heat-bonding member (13) heat-bonds together superposed leading and trailing end parts of the bundling tape (T) bundling the bank note stack (P). Then, the leading end of the bundling tape (T) for the next bundling process is moved backward to a print starting position to prepare for the next bundling process. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A Content Based Messaging (CBM) system is provided to monitor the actions of learners, which are published as events to a CBM network. The network provides notification of the events to subscribing applications. Because CBM systems are inherently stateless, to ensure persistence of data, applications use a remote procedure call (RPC)-CBM protocol to initiate publishing to the application and retrieve historical data. After the initial CBM-RPC, messages are published in a normal CBM fashion. A tutor interface also is provided to monitor and assist students using an e-learning system. The interface is populated with information using the CBM infrastructure. The interface allows tutors to provide individualized and personal attention to each student and their learning needs.

Abstract: A hybrid vehicle capable of traveling by motor generators (MG1, MG2) with an engine (E) stopped, wherein the engine (E), which is capable of reducing pumping loss by cylinder cut-off, is connected to a front wheel (Wf) through a first motor generator (MG1), an oil pump (13), a first clutch (14), a belt type stepless speed change mechanism (M), and a second clutch (20), while the second motor generator (MG2) is connected to a rear wheel (Wr). When the rear wheel (Wr) is driven or braked by the second motor generator (MG2) during travel, the oil pump (14) is driven by the first motor generator (MG1) with the cylinder for the engine (E) which is out of action being cut-off and with the second clutch (20) released, thereby generating an oil pressure for speed-changing the belt type stepless speed change mechanism (M). Thereby, without requiring a special electrically-powered oil pump, it is possible to generate an oil pressure for speed-changing the belt type stepless speed change mechanism (M) during stoppage of the engine (E).

Abstract: The present invention provides a method, computer program product, and data processing system for efficiently recovering state and performing failover of a network offload engine. The present invention distinguishes between the hard state and the soft state of a protocol. Hard state is state information that, when lost, leads to incorrect protocol behavior. Soft state is state information that may be lost or become inconsistent without loss of correctness. The present invention ensures correctness by always being able to recover the hard state of the protocol. A preferred embodiment of the present invention performs a failover of a network offload engine by temporarily blocking the reception of network packets, recovering hard state from host information, resuming network operation using a substitute network offload engine, and recovering soft state from the subsequent network activity.
