Abstract: A traffic control system and device is provided. The traffic control system of the instant invention permits two-way communication between a plurality of traffic signal devices and/or other devices or locations. Each traffic signal device locally controls the state of the traffic signals, while communication between the traffic signal devices is used to synchronize the internal timers or clocks of the plurality of traffic control devices.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a personal-care article for dispensing and or applying a personal-care product that comprises a package and a personal-care product. The package comprises at least one chamber, a dispensing orifice, a first zone proximate to the dispensing orifice and a second zone distal to the dispensing orifice, wherein the first zone and the second zone are both located in the at least one chamber. The personal-care product comprises a first personal-care composition substantially disposed within the first zone and the second personal-care composition substantially disposed within the second zone. The first composition comprises a first fragrance releaseably associated with a suppressing agent and the second composition comprises a second fragrance releaseably associated with a suppressing agent; wherein the first fragrance is different from the second fragrance.

Abstract: Preparation time of a multi print head screen printing machine is reduced by inputting the printing parameters into an electronic storage device on the silk screen when carrying out test printing, to avoid rekeying the information at the print head. The storage means can be accessed by cable connection or wireless connection.

Abstract: A method of operating a screen printing machine of the type where a number of garments supported on pallets sequentially move past a series of printing stations. In order to allow a sufficient delay between each print application the garments pass around the stations several times and in each lap only some of the colors are printed. The sequence is controlled by tracking the first garment and by activating counters at each active print head as the first garment arrives. The program allows for one process to complete while another commences and thus provides improved productivity.

Abstract: An image statements preparation process and system uses a profile management facility for assigning system management profiles including statement group cycle profiles to group multiple statements according to cycles for preparation and processing, and to allow statements preparation work to be performed concurrently upon successive and overlapping statement cycles. A statements interactive session workstation and host are provided to allow profile-managed operator selection of statements by statement cycles on which data, including image data, reconciliation work is required. A statements interactive session workstation display presents account information including missing image items along with a list of unassigned image items so that image reconciliation can be performed by a statements interactive session operator. Missing image items can be scanned into memory at the statements interactive session workstation.

Abstract: Water-soluble, pressure-sensitive adhesive compositions with effective adhesion, tack, and cohesive strength are provided. The composition comprises acrylate based polymer systems containing carboxylic functionality which are at least partially esterified with an ethoxylate of alkyl phenol or aliphatic alcohol and then at least partially neutralized with alkaline material. The compositions are admirably adapted as coatings for substrates to produce various tape products and for paper substrate. The paper tapes are especially useful for splicing tapes in paper board manufacture process and by virtue of the repulpability of the tape product recycling in such manufacturing process is facilitated.

Abstract: An adhesive composition and an adhesive tape comprising a substrate and such adhesive composition are provided. The adhesive composition comprises the product of the polymerization of acrylic monomers in an aqueous system containing an emulsifying agent which comprises a mixture of (a) a sulfonated diphenyl ether and (b) a sulfonated reaction product of formaldehyde and naphthalene.
