Abstract: It is an object of the present invention to provide an underwear capable of preventing a chest of a wearer from jiggling. The underwear according to the present invention comprises a pair of cup portions, a wire, and a wire length adjusting portion. The pair of cup portions protrude to a same side. The wire length adjusting portion is disposed between the foot of the pair of cup portions. Then, the wire extends from the opposite side of the wire length adjusting portion side of the cup portion to the wire length adjusting portion. The wire length adjusting portion can adjust a length L of the wire from the opposite side of the wire length adjusting portion side of the pair of cup portions to the wire length adjusting portion.

Abstract: A booster additive concentrate may advantageously contain: (a) an anti-wear mixture of two or more phosphite/phosphate compounds and one or more ether/thioether compounds; (b) an ashless dispersant; (c) a calcium-containing detergent, such as an overbased calcium phenate; (d) ?2 friction modifiers, at least one of which comprises a polyalkylene polyamine succinimide derivative; (e) optionally a corrosion inhibitor; and (f) a lubricating oil basestock. Based on these additive components, the booster additive concentrate may exhibit specific contents of B/Ca/P and may contain minimal or substantially no additional antioxidants. Lubricant compositions can be made from the booster additive concentrates and a fresh/used lubricant oil composition “diluent,” which can rejuvenate the diluent. Such lubricant compositions can have advantageous anti-shudder durability (ASD) lifetimes and other frictional properties.
