Abstract: An apparatus and method for managing historical data includes receiving a compiled application program and a declarative specification. An enhancer generates one or more representations of at least one data class defined in the application program based on at least one historical metatag and historical metadata associated therewith from the declarative specification. The enhancer also generates configuring instructions for configuring a database in accordance with the storage representation(s), an enhanced compiled application program including instructions for accessing data in the configured database, and a historical updater program for updating the data in the database based on the historical metadata.

Abstract: Packages, and more particularly packages having a dispensing opening through which articles, such as sanitary tissue products, may be dispensed are provided.

Abstract: A method for testing the break-through strength of a tissue product is disclosed. The method entails the steps of: a) observing a first condition of the tissue product; b) disposing the tissue product between a lower platen and an upper platen; c) disposing at least a portion of the tissue product within an aperture disposed within the lower platen and an aperture disposed within the upper platen; d) providing a simulated mucous composition; e) directing the simulated mucous composition toward the tissue product disposed within the aperture disposed within the lower platen and the aperture disposed within the upper platen; f) after step d), observing a second condition of the tissue product; and, g) comparing the first and the second conditions of the tissue product.

Abstract: An apparatus for embossing a web substrate is disclosed. The apparatus has a pattern roll having an embossing pattern disposed thereon, an anvil roll juxtaposed in an axially parallel relationship with the pattern roll, and an embossing roll juxtaposed in an axially parallel relationship with said pattern roll. The anvil roll has a hardness of less than about 40 P&J. The embossing roll has a hardness of greater than about 40 P&J.

Abstract: A process for manufacturing a multi-ply paper product is disclosed. The process includes the steps of: 1. Providing a web substrate; 2. Providing a pattern roll; 3. Providing an anvil roll having a hardness of less than about 40 P&J; 4. Providing an embossing roll having a hardness of greater than about 40 P&J; 5. Juxtaposing the anvil roll and the pattern roll in an axially parallel relationship to form a first nip therebetween; 6. Juxtaposing the embossing roll and the pattern roll in an axially parallel relationship to form a second nip therebetween; 7. Forwarding the web substrate through the first nip such that portions of the web substrate are embossed at the first nip to provide an embossed first paper web; and, 8. Forwarding the embossed first paper web through the second nip so that the embossed portions of the first paper web are further embossed in registration with the embossed portions of the first paper web.

Abstract: A web substrate comprising a plurality of embossment regions and an embossment pattern for a web substrate are disclosed.

Abstract: A laptop computer carrying case transforms into a desktop for use of a laptop or similar electronic device having a keyboard and a hingeably openable display. The laptop key board is held by bands in the lower portion of the case and the display is held in the top section of the case. Hinge structures are provided on the left and right sidewalls of the bottom section of the case. When the hinge structures are pivotally angularly separated, the bottom section containing the keyboard will be substantially horizontal enabling use of the laptop in a standing or mobile position. When the laptop is not being used, the case may be closed and the hinge structures closed with the laptop being carried by the strap over the shoulder. The hinge structure is provided with structure for limiting the amount by which the arms of the hinge may be pivotally angularly separated thereby providing stability to the laptop case in the desk top position.
