Abstract: A decorative holder for foodstuff trays, tins, and pans is provided. The decorative holder includes a receptacle having a partially corrugated bottom wall, a pair of opposing side walls, and a pair of opposing end walls. The side walls and the end walls extend upwardly from an outer periphery of the corrugated bottom wall and terminate in a top edge. The decorative holder further includes a lid that is hingably coupled to the top edge of the receptacle and configured to pivot between an opened position and a closed position, the lid defining a central opening providing access to an interior region of the decorative holder when disposed atop the receptacle. The receptacle and the lid are configured to hold and generally encapsulate a foodstuff tray, tin, or pan therebetween.

Abstract: The disclosed subject matter relates to extracorporeal blood processing or other processing of fluids. Volumetric fluid balance, a required element of many such processes, may be achieved with multiple pumps or other proportioning or balancing devices which are to some extent independent of each other. This need may arise in treatments that involve multiple fluids. Safe and secure mechanisms to ensure fluid balance in such systems are described.

Abstract: A vehicle occupant detection system includes at least one weight sensing pad, at least one infrared sensor, and at least one motion sensor disposed within an automobile. Each of the at least one weight sensing pad, the at least one infrared sensor, and the at least one motion sensor is in operational communication with each of a battery and a computer system of the automobile. The computer system is configured to activate at least one of a horn, an alarm, an engine, at least one power window, a wireless communication with a remotely disposed fob, a wireless text communication with a remotely disposed personal electronic device, and a cellular communication with an emergency responder when at least one of the at least one infrared sensor, the at least one of the weight sensing pad, and the at least one motion sensor detects a passenger disposed within the vehicle.

Abstract: A fibrous structure product has one or more plies of fibrous structure having a Residual Wet Caliper from 26 mils to about 45 mils and a Wet Recovery Distance from 32 mils to about 45 mils.

Abstract: Demonstrative methods for sanitary tissue products, for example toilet tissue products, and more particularly, methods for demonstrating wet pilling differences between two or more toilet tissue products and toilet tissue product packages and marketing articles that evidence wet pilling differences between toilet tissue products are provided.

Abstract: An article-retrieving apparatus enables a user to retrieve articles located inferior relative to the user. The apparatus comprises a coilable sleeve assembly, a handle assembly, and an article-grabbing assembly. The sleeve assembly comprises a force-translating inner member and a force-guiding outer sleeve. The inner member is slidably received within the outer sleeve. The handle assembly is cooperatively associated with a first sleeve assembly end and enables the user to impart an operative force to the inner member. The inner member is thus displaceable relative to the outer sleeve. The article-grabbing assembly is cooperatively associated with a second sleeve assembly end and comprises a plurality of cooperatively operative article-grabbing members. The article-grabbing members may thus retain a fetchable article located inferior relative to the user and the sleeve assembly is manually recoilable for retrieving the fetched article.

Abstract: The invention is directed to a process and apparatus for recovering refrigerant from a refrigeration purge stream wherein a gaseous purge stream containing a refrigerant and non-condensible gasses is countercurrently contacted with a high boiling point liquid which absorbs the refrigerant from the purge stream. Preferably a scrubbing column is used to effect countercurrent contact between the purge stream and the liquid stream.
