Publication number: 20150238057Abstract: A roll of centrally fed wipes includes a reinforced portion for facilitating threading of a dispensing opening in a dispenser. The reinforced portion includes a branched tag including at least two legs and a connecting end where the legs are connected and which connecting end is arranged to be the leading portion of the reinforced portion. A point of each leg includes resilient fastening means arranged to fold at least partly when the point is pushed through the fabric of the wipes and arranged to return at least partly to its original state in order to hinder a return of the fastening means through the fabric for load bearing purposes.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 24, 2012Publication date: August 27, 2015Applicant: SCA Hygiene Products ABInventor: Karen Neal

Publication number: 20090063846Abstract: A secure digital content delivery system includes a content provider and a content user. The content provider delivers encrypted content to the content user in response to delivery requests. The content provider generates encryption algorithms on the fly and encrypts the content prior to delivery, using a different encryption algorithm and key for each content delivery. The content user subsequently requests access permission from the content provider, to access the encrypted content. The content provider grants access by generating an executable decryption module on the fly and providing the executable decryption module to the content user. The content user decrypts the content and accesses it on the fly, using the executable decryption module. The accessed content is then re-encrypted using a different encryption algorithm and key, to preserve the integrity of the secure content delivery system.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 25, 2008Publication date: March 5, 2009Applicant: NB NetworksInventors: Peter D. Baker, Karen Neal, Susan L. Baker

Patent number: 6998451Abstract: A process for making polyolefins is disclosed. The process comprises polymerizing an olefin in the presence of an activator, an organometallic complex, and an aluminum phosphate support. The complex comprises a Group 3 to 10 transition metal and an indenoindolyl ligand that is bonded to the transition metal. The use of the aluminum phosphate support in combination with the indenoindolyl complex provides an unexpected boost in catalyst activity when compared with other common supports. When a combination of olefins is used, good comonomer incorporation is obtained.Type: GrantFiled: July 1, 2003Date of Patent: February 14, 2006Assignee: Equistar Chemicals, LPInventors: Sandor Nagy, Karen Neal-Hawkins

Publication number: 20040167857Abstract: A secure digital content delivery system includes a content provider and a content user. The content provider delivers encrypted content to the content user in response to delivery requests. The content provider generates encryption algorithms on the fly and encrypts the content prior to delivery, optionally using a different encryption algorithm and key for each content delivery. The content user subsequently requests access permission from the content provider, to access the encrypted content. The content provider grants access by generating an executable decryption module on the fly and providing the executable decryption module to the content user. The content user decrypts the content and accesses it on the fly, using the executable decryption module. The accessed content is then re-encrypted using a different encryption algorithm and key, to preserve the integrity of the secure content delivery system.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 25, 2004Publication date: August 26, 2004Applicant: NB NetworksInventors: Peter D.
