Alternatively or additionally, the adsorbent contains cellulose ester fibres, preferably cellulose acetate fibres, at least 80% of the fibres having a length of 0.5-5 mm, and a largest external diameter of 10 ?m to 200 ?m.

Abstract: An electrical connector is provided for electrically connecting a pair of conductors and includes: a housing made of an electrical insulating material, the housing having a pair of conductor insertion openings; a busbar component mounted in the housing between the insertion openings; a pair of cantilevered contact arms, each arm positioned on a side of the busbar opposite from the other contact arm to clamp a conductor against the busbar; and a pair of actuating member, each of the actuating members mounted on opposite sides of the busbar to actuate a corresponding one of the contact arms from an initial position to an inserting position as the actuating member is moved from a closed position to an open position.

Abstract: A vacuum valve including a valve seat having a valve opening defining an opening axis and a first seal surface circumferential around the valve opening and having a closure element having a second seal surface corresponding to the first seal surface. The first seal surface and/or the second seal surface has an at least two-component material composite having a metallic carrier component and a polymer-based seal material. The metallic carrier component defines an inner and outer carrier region and has a plurality of defined depressions extending in the inner carrier region by the seal surface. The seal material is applied to the carrier component such that a defined profile of the seal material is provided on the outer carrier region and a part of the seal material extends at least into a part of the depressions of the carrier component and fills them at least halfway.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for distributing a playlist of a user. The systems and methods receive an indication from the user of a song to add to the playlist and adds the song to the playlist. In aspects, the systems and methods analyze the playlist to determine whether an attribute of the playlist meets a specified parameter. In some cases, the specified parameter can be met if a musical attribute of the song is similar to a music profile of one of the users, or if an amount of songs on the playlist meets or exceeds a specified threshold. The systems and methods can enable the user to distribute the playlist either publicly or to a specified set of users if the specified parameter of the playlist is met.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for the separation of isocyanate monomers from isocyanate-containing mixtures by the provision of the mixture in a solvent and dialysis of the dissolved mixture against the solvent by means of a permeable membrane having a pore size in the range of between 5 and 400 nm. The method may in particular be employed for the separation of isocyanate monomers from prepolymers containing isocyanate groups, with said prepolymers being used for the production of adhesives, insulating, and expanding foams.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for implementing and managing a music service. According to certain aspects, the systems and methods present an interface to a user that indicates an additional user of the music service and allows the user to select certain properties or attributes associated with a desired playlist. The systems and methods identify a music profile of the additional user and detect an input selection to generate the playlist. In aspects, the systems and methods identify songs based on the music profile of the additional user and optionally a music profile of the user, as well as the properties or attributes selected by the user, and provides the playlist to the user that includes the identified songs.

Abstract: A system, computer-readable storage medium storing at least one program, and computer-implemented method for presenting a calendar interface is presented. The method may include accessing a set of calendar objects of a user corresponding to calendar events of a user calendar. The calendar events may comprise at least one foreground calendar event for which non-optional user attendance is indicated, and a background calendar event for which optional user attendance is indicated. The method may further include generating a calendar interface with a compressed display of the background calendar event, and an expanded display of the foreground calendar objects.

Abstract: A user can click on a spreadsheet cell to enter edit mode and alter the contents of the cell. Edit mode can be exited through a click and drag maneuver. The click and drag maneuver not only exits edit mode, but also selects a range of cells. The click and drag is performed by depressing a mouse button while the mouse indicator is positioned Over the edit cell, moving the mouse while holding the mouse button depressed, and releasing the mouse button when the end of the desired range of cells is reached. The range of selected cells starts with the edit cell and continues to the cell over which the mouse indicator was positioned when the mouse button was released.

Abstract: Editing cells within a spreadsheet to change the contents of a spreadsheet. To enter edit mode and alter the contents of a cell, the user first selects a cell by single clicking a mouse button while the mouse indicator is positioned above the cell. The user then initiates another single click when the mouse indicator is positioned above the selected cell. Once edit mode is active, the user may change the contents of the cell from within the web browser window as desired. Edit mode can be exited through one of three methods: an “exit and save” signal, an “exit and discard” signal, or a click and drag maneuver. The exit and save signal prompts the invention to save all changes to the cell that the user has made. The exit and discard signal prompts the invention to discard any changes made to the cell by the user, revert to the pre-edit mode contents of the edit cell, and exit edit mode. Finally, a click and drag maneuver not only exits edit mode, but selects a range of cells.
