Abstract: A bumper golf game system, and related methods, are disclosed. The system includes a flexible putting mat including inner and outer surfaces, first and second goal recesses extending at least partially through the mat, an array of a plurality of central obstacle recesses extending at least partially through the mat positioned generally between the first and second goal recesses, a pair of first goal obstacle recesses extending at least partially through the mat flanking the first goal recess, and a pair of second goal obstacle recesses extending at least partially through the mat flanking the second goal recess. The system also includes a plurality of obstacles configured to mount within the obstacle recesses and extend past the inner surface of the mat. The system further includes a plurality of rails configured to interconnect and extend over the inner surface of the mat to bound a portion thereof.

Abstract: A method of producing an intermittently elastic web. The method includes providing a first longitudinally extending web having a first lateral edge, a second lateral edge and an intermediate portion located between the first and second lateral edges. The method also includes joining a first elastic element to the intermediate portion in a longitudinally extending wave shape, the wave shape having wave crests and wave troughs.

Abstract: A disposable absorbent garment having an inner layer with a first end panel, a second end panel, and a pair of side panels formed separate from the first and second end panels. The first and second end panels are stretchable in at least the lateral direction of the garment. The side panels extend longitudinally between the first and second end panels in laterally spaced relationship with each other such that the end panels and side panels together define a central opening of the inner layer. The side panels are each secured to the first and second end panels and are extensible in at least the lateral direction of the garment. The garment includes an outer layer is in opposed relationship with the inner layer and an absorbent assembly disposed between the inner layer and the outer layer.

Abstract: An undergarment is conveniently made with two elasticized top panels bonded and cut at a 45 degree angle on a bottom panel. The top panels have curved leg cutouts matched to the curved leg cutouts of the bottom panel. The curved leg cutouts are preferentially cut for the front and back sections of the garment to produce a comfortable fit.

Abstract: A nonwoven, disposable, incontinence garment, such as a diaper, has refastenable attachment means, such as a hook and look fastening system for attaching the front panel to the back panel. The garment is packaged in its point of sale container with the attachment means prefastened so that it can be used immediately as a pull on garment and then removed in the manner of a diaper. The attachment means of the rear panel includes extra material which is folded on itself and lightly bonded at the folds to provide simple in-process execution of a permanent lap bond between the attachment means and the rear panel which will not separate during use of the garment. The attachment means of the front panel includes extra material which is folded on itself and lightly bonded at the folds to also provide extra expansion of the diaper.

Abstract: An apparatus for converting rolls of paper web into stacks of folded sheets on a continuous high speed basis includes slitting a supply roll into plural narrow webs, folding the narrow webs longitudinally, cutting the folded webs transversely into sheets of suitable length, pre-stacking continuous streams of adjacent folded sheets emerging from the cutters before they are carried to a final stacking mechanism. The pre-stacking mechanism removes certain sheets from their original positions in the continuous streams of folded sheets and places them on top of other sheets in the streams from which they were removed in order to deliver to the final stacking mechanism sets of pre-stacked sheets with a gap between adjacent sets.
