Abstract: A reproducing arrangement for reproducing scenes of a stored film in an overview reproducing mode of the reproducing arrangement, has random access memory means for the storage of audio/video data (AVD) of a film which is reproducible at a normal reproducing speed during a film reproduction time (TW1, TW2), and mode means which enable the overview reproducing mode of the reproducing arrangement to be activated, at least two scenes of the stored film being reproduced in succession at the normal or an increased reproducing speed by the reproducing arrangement in the overview reproducing mode, and a skip scene recorded between two scenes and reproducible at the normal reproducing speed during a skip reproduction time interval not being reproduced in the overview reproducing mode.

Abstract: A reproducing arrangement (1) for reproducing scenes (S) of a stored film in an overview reproducing mode of the reproducing arrangement (1), has random access memory means (8) for the storage of audio/video data (AVD) of a film which is reproducible at a normal reproducing speed during a film reproduction time (TW1, TW2), and mode means (4) which enable the overview reproducing mode of the reproducing arrangement (1) to be activated, at least two scenes (S1 to S6, S7 to S12) of the stored film (FI1, FI2) being reproduced in succession at the normal or an increased reproducing speed by the reproducing arrangement (1) in the overview reproducing mode, and a skip scene (US) recorded between two scenes (S1 to S6, S7 to S12) and reproducible at the normal reproducing speed during a skip reproduction time interval (TZ1, TZ2) not being reproduced in the overview reproducing mode, and reproducing means (9) which, in the overview reproducing mode of the reproducing arrangement (1), are adapted to reproduce the stored

Abstract: A method of stimulating a subterranean formation using a foamed cement composition. When hardened, the cement composition has a permeability of at least about 0.3 darcies. The inventive formation stimulation method comprises the steps of: (a) injecting the foamed cement composition into the formation at a pressure sufficient to fracture the formation and (b) allowing the cement composition to harden in the formation.

Abstract: A method of cementing a well casing or liner in a well bore wherein an annulus exists around the exterior of the casing or liner. The method comprises the step of placing a foamed cement slurry composition in the annulus. A method of treating a well bore comprising the steps of: (a) filling an uncased portion of the well bore with a foamed cement slurry composition; (b) allowing the cement composition to harden; and (c) drilling a hole through the hardened cement composition along at least a portion of the uncased portion of the well bore.
