Abstract: A motion detecting apparatus includes an inertial sensor and an antenna via which a signal containing information based on data outputted from the inertial sensor is transmitted to a notification apparatus attached to a user, and when the motion detecting apparatus is attached to the user, at least part of the antenna is located on a ground side.

Abstract: An injection bag is formed of a multilayer film, and includes an intermediate layer that includes a mixture of 60 to 90 mass % of a crystalline polyamide resin and 10 to 40 mass % of a noncrystalline polyamide resin. The crystalline polyamide resin has a combined content of a monomer and a low-molecular-weight polymer of 0.8 mass % or less. The noncrystalline polyamide resin includes a semi-aromatic polyamide.

Abstract: Disclosed is a control program for a computer, the computer including a storage unit and being configured to execute a competition game. The storage unit stores a competition result and a counter for each combination of at least two competing players. The control program causes the computer to execute a competition between at least two players When a winning player, of at least two competing players, was defeated by a losing player in an immediately preceding competition, the computer increases the counter corresponding to the combination of the at least two competing players, determines points to be awarded based on the counter, and stores the determined points in the storage unit in association with the winning player.

Abstract: Network repeaters which each implement a redundant switching function previously grasp connection states of ports of a network system by using an inquiry frame and an exchange frame. At the time when a line is broken, when actively confirming a state of a port connected to a port in which a line is broken via a downstream device, the network repeaters each grasp that which portion of the line is broken and determine whether a switchover is required. Through the process, the network repeaters each prevent a useless switchover such as switching-back immediately after the switchover, and at the same time since a mechanism of waiting for a given length of times is not required, they each perform a fast switchover.
