Abstract: An apparatus for transcutaneous stimulation comprising: a pulse generator operative to generate repetitive pulses exhibiting a pulse width of 25-60 microseconds, a consistent pulse rise time of no more than 5% of the pulse width and an inter-pulse interval of between 0.1 and 3 milliseconds; an intra-group modulator producing modulated pulses exhibiting an amplitude of between 50% and 100% of a maximum modulated pulse amplitude in a generally increasing manner, the modulated pulses defining a group of pulses, the intra-group modulator being further operative to modulate the pulses to exhibit an amplitude of no more than 25% of the maximum modulated pulse amplitude for a predetermined time period between successive groups of pulses thereby creating a pulse train; and an output modulator modulating the pulse train to produce output pulses exhibiting an amplitude of between 50% and 100% of a maximum according to a predetermined repetitive waveform.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for constructing and using a personalized web page, the personalized web page comprising an at least one module which is a fragment of a second web page having a locator, the second web page stored on a web site, the fragment identified by at least two coordinates within the second web page. The method comprises the steps of selecting the fragment of the second web page, placing the module on the personalized web page; and storing a description of the personalized web page on a server, wherein the description comprises the locator and the coordinates of the fragment of the second web page within the second web page.
