Abstract: A 256 Meg dynamic random access memory is comprised of a plurality of cells organized into individual arrays, with the arrays being organized into 32 Meg array blocks, which are organized into 64 Meg quadrants. Sense amplifiers are positioned between adjacent rows in the individual arrays while row decoders are positioned between adjacent columns in the individual arrays. In certain of the gap cells, multiplexers are provided to transfer signals from I/O lines to datalines. A data path is provided which, in addition to the foregoing, includes array I/O blocks, responsive to the datalines from each quadrant to output data to a data read mux, data buffers, and data driver pads. The write data path includes a data in buffer and data write muxes for providing data to the array I/O blocks. A power bus is provided which minimizes routing of externally supplied voltages, completely rings each of the array blocks, and provides gridded power distribution within each of the array blocks.

Abstract: A process for processing the return of products in a single location including: (1) forecasting parts necessary for refurbishing a certain type of a returned product; (2) receiving the returned product at the single location; (3) analyzing the returned product to determine how to refurbish the products; (4) forwarding the products to a refurbishing location within the single location; (5) receiving the parts for refurbishing the products received; and (6) refurbishing the products utilizing the parts and in a manner determined.

Abstract: Artistic panes having flat and planar margins with laterally offset central regions and deformations, as well as devices and methods for making the same, are shown and described. Devices and assemblies for manufacturing such artistic panes incorporate support members and raised boundary members, and can incorporate masses and/or piles of powder to create various deformations in the artistic panes. Methods of manufacturing such artistic panes can incorporate slump processes, sag processes and rolling processes.

Abstract: A bicycle comprises a frame (10) a rear wheel (14) and a rear suspension, which comprises a swing arm (17) carrying the wheel and two pivot links (18, 19) spaced from one another in the fore and aft direction of the bicycle and coupling the arm to the frame to form, together with the frame, a four-bar linkage movable between a first end settings in an unloaded state of the suspension and a second end setting in a loaded state of the suspension. The links (18, 19) are each pivotably connected with the frame outwardly of the wheel circumference and are arranged so that on movement of the linkage from the first to the second end setting an instantaneous pivot center (21) defined by the intersection of two axes (22, 23) each containing the pivot points of a respective one of the links (18, 19) moves downwardly and rearwardly with respect to the fore and aft direction.

Abstract: A mouthpiece, barrel and reed table is provided as having at least one opening for supporting at least one mouthpiece, an extension for supporting at least one barrel section, and an optional table for supporting at least one reed in an organized manner. Variations including the use of a varying plurality of openings and extensions, with or without the optional reed table, to provide the user a variety of numbers of structures which can serve to fit in a variety of different sized available spaces. The basic member is a mouthpiece and barrel support structure, typically a volume of material, preferably a stylish stained hardwood, having at least one bore for supporting a mouthpiece and at least one barrel extension member for supporting a barrel.
