Abstract: Data C generated by scrambling user-desired digital data P and a control word CWp corresponding to the number of reproductions p are recorded on recording media. When creating a master, a user has already been charged for the number of reproductions p. A decryption block decrypts the control word CWp, which is read from the recording media, to CW0. A de-scrambler uses the decryption control word CW0 to decrypt the digital data P for output to a reproduction unit. After confirming the end of reproduction, the decryption block writes a control word CW(p?1) back to the recording media. The recording media may be reproduced p times with no need for communication between a reproduction device and an accounting manager.

Abstract: A stencil printing machine, which includes: a drum which is freely rotatable and has an outer peripheral wall formed of an ink impermeable member, in which a stencil sheet is mounted on a surface of the outer peripheral wall; an ink supplying device for supplying, to the surface of the outer peripheral wall, an ink guided from an ink tank; an ink recovery device for recovering, from an ink recovery portion, an extra ink on the surface of the outer peripheral wall; and a pressure roller which presses a print medium to the outer peripheral wall. The ink tank includes a main tank portion where unused ink is stored, and a sub-tank portion where the ink recovered by the ink recovery device is stored. The ink supplying device preferentially supplies the ink in the sub-tank portion.
Abstract: A diagnostic method for assaying schizophrenia in a subject is provided wherein a preparation comprising platelet derived proteins or fractions thereof having a pI above about 6.5 is injected into a subject and the occurrence of delayed type hypersensitivity (DTH) reaction at the site of the injection is determined. A positive DTH reaction indicates that the tested subject has a high likelihood of being schizophrenic. The protein preparation used in the diagnostic method is also provided as well as a method for its preparation and a kit for use in the diagnosis of schizophrenia using the above method.
Abstract: In order to provide a semiconductor integrated circuit equipped with a clock distribution circuit that enables clock skew to be reduced without requiring great effort and without being affected by temperature variations or voltage variations, and a manufacturing method thereof, in a clock distribution circuit 1 installed in a semiconductor integrated circuit, part of the distribution path of a clock signal that passes from a first selector 11 of a first circuit block 10 that has many buffer stages via a first buffer stage 10A is used, and a distribution path of a clock signal to a second buffer stage 20A of a second circuit block 20 that has few buffer stages is constructed.

Abstract: A residual current detection circuit comprises a current transformer CT for detecting an imbalance current indicative of a residual current and a full wave restifier FWR for providing an output whose amplitude corresponds to the magnitude of the residual current. The FWR output is applied simultaneously to two channels. The first channel includes a first comparator COMP1 to provide a first signal which persists during periods when the amplitude of the output exceeds a first level. The second channel includes a capacitor C2 which acquires a charge corresponding to the output level and a second comparator COMP2 for providing a second signal in response to the capacitor voltage exceeding a second level. An output is provided from the circuit only when the first signal is coincident with the second signal.
Abstract: Process for contacting diaphragm electrode (6) for pressure-measuring configuration. Connection of diaphragm (3) on which diaphragm electrode (6) is positioned to base (1) by connecting element (2) made of electrically insulating material running between the two. Base exhibits throughplating hole (7, 10) between attachment point (8) and connecting point (9) for electrically insulating material, and connecting element (2) exhibits connecting element throughplating (11) between connecting point (9) and diaphragm or diaphragm electrode. Conductive contact material (13) is provided in throughplating hole (7, 10). Contact material (13) is activated by heating. Throughplating (11) is prepared through connecting element (2) without forming opening that weakens material and without needing to align diaphragm, connecting element, and base with respect to throughplating holes.
Abstract: The inventive subject matter relates to methods for treating prostate cancer, comprising administration of a composition comprising therapeutically effective amounts of supercritical extracts of rosemary, turmeric, oregano and ginger; and therapeutically effective amounts of hydroalcoholic extracts of holy basil, ginger, turmeric, Scutellaria baicalensis, rosemary, green tea, huzhang, Chinese goldthread, and barberry.

Abstract: Production process for waterproofed foam mattresses, starting from a foam material body (1) in which a plurality of passing through holes (2) are carried out in the bigger faces and some passing through holes (3) with a smaller diameter are carried out along the body (1), through which holes (3) some rods (4) are incorporated to be fastened on a supporting frame (5), and to spray the body (1) in this position with the waterproofing material, letting the latter drip off in a sloped position till the mentioned waterproofing material is gelled.
Abstract: An indicator (5) is provided, which displays that it is a locking confirmable period, for predetermined time after locking the door, in a vehicle door locking and unlocking system S, which locks or unlocks the vehicle door by performing communication between a controller (6), which controls locking or unlocking of the vehicle door, and a portable machine (7).
Abstract: Disclosed is a condensing system which can selectively provide cooperative operation of an air cooling condenser with a water cooling condenser or an evaporative condenser according to variation of ambient air temperature, coolant pressure and condensing load. The water cooling condenser is disposed between a compressor and the air cooling condenser, and includes a coolant pipe, a water passage for enabling water to flow therethrough to have heat exchange with coolant in the coolant pipe, an inlet pipe and an outlet pipe connected with the water passage of the water cooling condenser for automatically feeding and discharging water in a direction reverse to a flowing direction of coolant and a control valve installed in the inlet side of the inlet pipe for automatically controlling water feed to the water passage according to ambient air temperature, coolant pressure and condensing load.
Abstract: The present invention discloses an image sensor module and forming method of wafer level package. The image sensor module comprises an isolating base, a wafer level package, a lens holder, and a F.P.C.. The wafer level package having a plurality of image sensor dies and a plurality of solder balls is attached to the isolating base. A plurality of lens are placed in the lens holder, and the lens holder is located on the image sensor dies. The lens holder is placed in the F.P.C., and the F.P.C. has a plurality of solder joints coupled to the solder balls for conveniently transmitting signal of the image sensor dies. Moreover, the image sensor dies may be packaged with passive components or other dies with a side by side structure or a stacking structure.
