Abstract: A spatial logic or manipulative puzzle in the form of a 2×2×2 cube is provided comprising a body made of interconnected pieces, groups of which are relatively rotatable about three axes to exchange positions of the pieces, wherein exposed faces of the pieces are sculptured to define an image. Each piece has means for establishing a pivotal connection to other pieces of the puzzle, at least three planar faces for slideable abutment with adjoining faces of other pieces, and at least one exposed face which is sculptured to define part of an image. The internal mechanism is preferably controlled by a castellated spider fixed in relationship to one of the pieces. A mechanism of this type enables the pieces and components to be interengaged and secured together by pushing the last piece home and does not require internal screws or springs or gluing as in some other known cube mechanisms.

Abstract: A book which comprises: first and second rigid covers, a plurality of rigid pages, and binding means attached to an edge of each rigid cover and each rigid page, wherein at least some of said rigid pages are of a different size to others of such rigid pages so that when said book is closed, said plurality of pages is sandwiched between said first and second covers to form a three-dimensional sculpture.

Abstract: Disclosed is the use of an adhesive to prepare a disposable absorbent product intended for the absorption of liquids such as body liquids. It is generally desired that the adhesive exhibits a storage modulus greater than about 1.times.10.sup.8 dynes per square centimeter across the temperature range of about 0.degree. F. to about 130.degree. F. The use of such an adhesive results in a reduced visibility of the adhesive through the outer sheets, such as breathable films, of a disposable absorbent product to a wearer or user, thereby improving the aesthetics of the disposable absorbent product.
