selected from the group consisting of water-soluble salts of
the foregoing metal elements to a slurry containing metal
nickel fine particles or surface-oxidized metal nickel fine
particles; and then adjusting the pH of the mixture with an acid

Abstract: Automatically maintaining behavioral standards of an electronic
community in response to feedback from members of the electronic community.
Feedback is submitted regarding behavior of a specified member. If the feedback
exceeds a threshold representing a behavioral standard of the electronic
community for a category, an action is automatically implemented directed to the
specified member. Each threshold may be adjusted as a function of the number of
members or of other criteria. The feedback may also be used to rate a specific
member and to enable other members to choose whether to interact with the
specific member. Sanctions or rewards may be implemented, including limiting
communication, suspending or terminating access, granting additional privileges,
assigning the specified member to a subgroup of the electronic community, and
other actions. Community standards can thus be automatically maintained and
enforced for gaming, communication, commerce, collaborative work, or other
electronic activities.

Abstract: A cartridge holder and a floating dispenser system for dispensing materials into a fluid with
the floating dispenser system including a cartridge holder with receptacles for removably
attaching or detaching at least two cartridge dispensers therein to allow one to
simultaneously dispense materials into a fluid system by placing the floating dispensing
system in a body of fluids and to replenish the system by merely removing and replacing a
cartridge in the holder. A dispenser system that takes high pressure fluid such as a high
pressure water source and reduces the volume flow of the high pressure water as it flows
into a dispenser with the dispenser having a low pressure outlet, which offers negligible
fluid resistance in comparison to the inlet fluid resistance to the dispenser, thereby ensuring
that if a dispenser cap is accidentally removed from the dispenser while the unit is in
operation the water will not spray out into and onto the user. The dispensing system
includes a removable cartridge carrier with adjustable openings and a dispenser housing that
one can maintain a uniform flow pattern under different flow rates to provide for a
predicable control of a dispersion rate from a dispersant located in the system and a method
of predictably changing the dispersion rate of a dispersant.A universal cartridge that is
useable in either a stagnant fluid environment or in a moving fluid environment with the
universal cartridge floatable in a stagnant fluid environment and securable in a moving fluid
environment with the universal cartridge having an inner housing having a diffusion port
and an outer sleeve having a diffusion port with the housing and the sleeve mateable
engaged with each other through frictional engagement to inhibit flow therebetween while
permitting rotational displacement of the housing with respect to the sleeve to allow one to
increase or decrease a dispersant transport area between a zone within the housing to a zone
exterior to the housing through aligning a recessed diffusion port of the housing with a
diffusion port of the sleeve with the diffusion ports inhibiting fluid flow therethrough but
permitting dispersant transfer therethrough.

Abstract: An integrated imaging element for an interferometer generates at least one
interference image that includes multiple interference portions with different relative
phase shifts interleaved in a pattern having a high spatial frequency in the image. The
interleaved pattern is at least partially determined by the pattern of a high density
relative retarder array used in the integrated imaging element. In various
embodiments, the multiple interference portions are interleaved in a checkerboard-like
pattern across the entire surface of a detector device. As a result, various non-common
mode errors present in various interferometers that generate separate non-interleaved
images for each relative phase are reduced or eliminated.

Abstract: A terminal apparatus (20), which receives managing object
information to be managed from a central apparatus (10), detects
communication status with the central apparatus (10), and a CPU
(21) judges whether or not to execute processing on the received
managing object information on the basis of the detected control
status. Specifically, only when the communication is established
between the central apparatus (10) and the terminal apparatus (20),
processing on the information by the terminal apparatus (20) is
permitted within a predetermined range, and the information is
automatically deleted when communication with the central
apparatus (10) is disconnected, and therefore the central apparatus
(10) can manage the information even after the information is
transmitted to the terminal apparatus (20). Hence leakage of

Abstract: A self-excited switching power supply circuit is provided which reduces a discharge current generated when an oscillating field effect transistor (3) is turned on, whereby it is possible to reduce energy loss and generation of noise when switching is executed. A time constant of an ON control circuit (12, 23) is set such that when a polarity of a voltage of a feedback winding (2b) has reversed, a gate voltage of the oscillating field effect transistor (3) exceeds a threshold voltage VTH. Accordingly, after a voltage of a primary winding (2a) has become equal to or less than a power supply voltage, the oscillating field effect transistor (3) is turned on, and electrical charge stored in stray capacitance between the windings of the primary winding (2a) and in parasitic capacitance of the oscillating field effect transistor (3) is discharged gradually. <IMAGE>

for a predetermined period, as a DRAM control signal to the DRAM core (3). The
timing adjusting circuit (22) generates n different clocks that are respectively shifted in
phase with respect to a supplied reference clock (CLKi), and generates the DRAM
control signal (CNT) by setting the control command active in a prescribed operation
cycle for only a period starting at a first predetermined clock pulse of a first clock of
the n clocks and ending at a second predetermined clock pulse of a second clock of the
n clocks. In this way, timing design with relatively high accuracy of adjustment can be

Abstract: A semantic object tracking method tracks general semantic objects with multiple non-rigid motion, disconnected components and multiple colors throughout a vector image sequence. The method accurately tracks these general semantic objects by spatially segmenting image regions from a current frame and then classifying these regions as to which semantic object they originated from in the previous frame. To classify each region, the method perform a region based motion estimation between each spatially segmented region and the previous frame to computed the position of a predicted region in the previous frame. The method then classifies each region in the current frame as being part of a semantic object based on which semantic object in the previous frame contains the most overlapping points of the predicted region. Using this method, each region in the current image is tracked to one semantic object from the previous frame, with no gaps or overlaps. The method propagates few or no errors because it projects regions into a frame where the semantic object boundaries are previously computed rather than trying to project and adjust a boundary in a frame where the object's boundary is unknown.
