Abstract: Disclosed is a sole for a running shoe, comprising a sole tip (4), a heel edge (5) and a midsole (1) having a base surface delimiting the midsole against the vertical direction (V) of the midsole and a top surface (2) delimiting the midsole in the vertical direction (V), wherein the midsole (1) has a heel region (FB), a midfoot region (MFB) and a forefoot region (VFB) and wherein the midsole (1) has an elastic plate (6), wherein the elastic plate (6) extends at least from the forefoot region (VFB) into the midfoot region (MFB), and wherein the elastic plate (6) in the forefoot region (VFB) and/or in the midfoot region (MFB) has a first curvature (61) with a vertex (S-61) curved along the longitudinal direction (L) of the midsole (1) in the direction of the top surface (2) of the midsole (1), wherein the elastic plate (6) is formed in such a way that the first curvature (61) is elastically bent in the direction of the base surface (3) by the forces acting during treading and/or rolling movement, and the first

Abstract: A speech-signal-processing-circuit configured to receive a time-frequency-domain-reference-speech-signal and a time-frequency-domain-degraded-speech-signal. The time-frequency-domain-reference-speech-signal comprises: an upper-band-reference-component with frequencies that are greater than a frequency-threshold-value; and a lower-band-reference-component with frequencies that are less than the frequency-threshold-value. The time-frequency-domain-degraded-speech-signal comprises: an upper-band-degraded-component with frequencies that are greater than the frequency-threshold-value; and a lower-band-degraded-component with frequencies that are less than the frequency-threshold-value.

Abstract: Novel methods and novel industrial unicellular microorganism strains, particularly industrial Bacillus strains, are provided for enhanced production of endogenous and exogenous polypeptides. Cloning vehicles containing the gene expressing the polypeptide of interest are introduced into a compatible host. Transformed hosts harboring the introduced vehicle in a stable way by integration of the vehicle into the host cells chromosome are selected. Efficient transfer of the vehicle containing the gene of interest is achieved, with the resulting industrial strain transformants being effective, stable producers of the desired polypeptide product.
