Abstract: The transparent hot melt jet inks described in the specification include a coloring agent, a vehicle for the coloring agent including a thermoplastic nontransparent base material and a transparentizing agent containing a glycol ester of a C.sub.18-35 fatty acid, a glyceryl ester of a C.sub.18-36 fatty acid with metal soaps, a polyethylene wax having a molecular weight of 400 to 1200, a synthetic paraffin wax, or a linear alcohol with a molecular weight of 500 to 1000 or a mixture thereof, a microcrystalline or modified microcrystalline wax.

Abstract: In the particular embodiments described in the specification, low-corrosion hot melt ink contains 0.5% to 10% by weight of a metallo-organic compound such as overbased calcium sulphonate, basic barium sulphonate and overbased sulphurized calcium alkyl phenate as a corrosion inhibitor. Such inks produce no significant corrosion of printing system components after extended exposure at elevated temperatures.

Abstract: In the embodiments described in the specification, a dispersed, pigmented hot melt ink contains a thermoplastic vehicle, a colored pigment, and a dispersing agent to inhibit settling or agglomeration of pigment when the ink is molten comprising an isocyanate-modified microcrystalline wax or lignite wax in an amount of 2 to 100 weight percent of the weight of the vehicle. Preferred is the isocyanate-modified microcrystalline wax marketed as Petrolite WB17.

Abstract: A power supply system is enclosed in a housing. A disk drive receptacle is arranged in the front of the housing, and a power supply and card cage for the microcomputer are laterally arranged at the rear of the housing. The front and rear of the housing are air permeable for cooling air. A power supply control circuit, for control of the power supply, controls a solid state relay in series with the power input to the power supply. The power supply control circuit also generates control signals, indicating pending power failure, for the microcomputer arranged in the card cage.

Abstract: 4',5'-Dihydrospiro[androst/estr-4-ene-17,2'(3'H)-furan]-3,4'-dione and congeners; the antiviral, antiandro genic, diuretic, and/or antiestrogenic activity inherent therein; and means of preparing them via novel intermediates are disclosed.

Abstract: An active optical fuze for detonating a missile warhead at a prescribed re is disclosed in combination with an optical guidance system target sensing head for a missile which incorporates an assembly of optical elements for receiving radiant energy from a target and wherein the optical axis of the receiving assembly is automatically rotated by guidance controlled means in response to received guidance radiation so as to track the target. A lasing diode is utilized as the fuze radiation transmitting device, the lasing diode being coupled to the receiving optical assembly and disposed coaxially therewith for emitting radiation outwardly along the optical axis of the receiving assembly such that the fuze radiation is automatically emitted in the target direction when the receiving assembly is rotated to track the target.
