Abstract: This patent application describes a new combination treatment of selective, noradrenaline-reuptake inhibitors (NARI) and specifically, reboxetine, and pindolol to provide rapid relief to patients suffering from depression, general anxiety, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), anxiety disorders such as obsessive compulsive disorders (OCD), panic disorders (PD), social phobia (SD) and the like.

Abstract: When a laser beam interacts with a workpiece to be welded by the beam, a plume of optical radiation is generated. An apparatus and method is disclosed in which radiation from the plume is received back through a beam delivery path comprising optical elements (L1,L2) having chromatic aberration. This alters the focus of different spectral bands of the plume radiation and a discriminating aperture is formed by a face of an optical fibre (3). After passing through the fibre, the plume radiation is separated from any laser radiation and the respective powers of the different spectral bands are measured (5). By subtraction, an error signal is obtained which is used to control the focus of the laser beam.

Abstract: The nozzle includes a sleeve and a hollow body concentrically disposed within the sleeve. A hollow cylindrical baffle housing is coaxially maintained within the body by vanes which extend between the housing outer wall and the body inner wall. Formed on the outer wall of the body is a thread which mates with a thread on the inner wall of the sleeve to permit rotation of the sleeve relative to the body between two stop positions. A baffle is secured to the baffle housing and is provided with a head which, as the sleeve is rotated toward the first stop position, approaches a baffle seat formed on the sleeve and thereby diminishes the quantity of liquid discharging from the nozzle.
