Abstract: A nonwoven material suitable for use as a wet wipe substrate is disclosed. The nonwoven material comprises thermoplastic fibers and is provided with a pattern of embossments that join at least a portion of the thermoplastic fibers. When the material is treated with a cleaning lotion to provide a wet wipe, the wet wipe has a wet CD modulus that is greater than about 25 N/m and less than about 80 N/m.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to pre-moistened webs and wipes having visible compressed sites that provide the perception of a cloth-like texture. The disclosure also relates to a nonwoven web made of non-thermoplastic fibers with at least one compressed site on the surface of the web that remains visible when the web is pre-moistened.

Abstract: Stacks of pre-moistened wipes wherein the wipes comprise a composite of at least two layers of fibrous nonwoven webs, which in turn comprise fibers with an average fiber denier from about 2.5 to about 6.0. The stacks of pre-moistened wipes are from about 50 to about 300 millimeters in height and have a saturation gradient index from about 1.0 to about 1.5.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method and system for routing telephone calls within a household. In the disclosed home call routing system, a head of the household or other person with administrative authority within the home can control the routing of telephone calls by establishing and modifying call system parameters such as call priorities, traffic times, caller identities, routing rules, etc. through a home computer.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to pre-moistened webs and wipes having visible compressed sites that provide the perception of a cloth-like texture. The disclosure also relates to a nonwoven web made of non-thermoplastic fibers with at least one compressed site on the surface of the web that remains visible when the web is pre-moistened.

Abstract: Systems and methods for dynamic reconfiguration of an application of a programmable process controller are provided. According to one embodiment, a configuration device reads a new configuration file, which contains information regarding a desired number of instances and desired configurations of modules of the process control application, from its local memory. The configuration device then causes the application to instantiate the desired number of instances with the desired configurations by replacing an existing configuration file of the programmable process controller with the new configuration file. In another embodiment, a process control application of a programmable process controller dynamically configures its structure and memory allocation usage. During startup of the application, a configuration file is read that defines a number of instances and configurations of modules for the application.

Abstract: Nonwoven webs that are comprised of non-thermoplastic fibers, have good in-use strength, and that disperse or break apart when subjected to agitation in water are disclosed. Pre-moistened wipes comprising such webs are also disclosed. The method of making the nonwoven webs is described as providing the webs with discrete compressed sites that form lines of weakness, such that the web may fail in tension along the lines of weakness when the web is subjected to a force less than the maximum force of the uncompressed regions of the web.

Abstract: The personal care compositions of the present invention are in the form of an Article comprising a dissolvable fibrous web structure. The fibers of the dissolvable fibrous web structure comprise a surfactant; a water soluble polymeric structurant; and a plasticizer. Additionally the ratio of the water soluble water soluble polymeric structurant to the active agent in the fiber is 3.5 or less.

Abstract: Absorbent core for disposable absorbent articles, for example for the absorption of menses or blood.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to pre-moistened webs and wipes having visible compressed sites that provide the perception of a cloth-like texture. The disclosure also relates to a nonwoven web made of non-thermoplastic fibers with at least one compressed site on the surface of the web that remains visible when the web is pre-moistened.

Abstract: Fibrous structures that exhibit a novel combination of properties and to methods for making such fibrous structures are provided.

Abstract: An active radar target comprising: a receive antenna for receiving a radar signal, an amplifier for amplifying the signal, and a transmit antenna for retransmitting the amplified signal, characterised in that the active radar target further includes a memory for storing an identity code or means for receiving an identity code, a modulator for receiving the identity code and modulating the radar signal with at least the identity code prior to retransmission of the amplified signal, and wherein the modulator is a single sideband modulator.

Abstract: The present invention provides a compound of formula (I): or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof wherein the variables R1, R2, R3a, R3b, R3b, R3d, and R100 are as defined herein. The invention is also directed to pharmaceutical compositions comprising the compounds of formula (I) and methods of treating a 5-HT2c receptor-mediated disorders with a compound of formula (I) or a pharmaceutical composition comprising a compound of formula (I).

Abstract: The present invention concerns a method of testing a human thought to be predisposed to having lung cancer which comprises the step of analyzing a biological sample from said human for detecting the presence of a polymorphism on chromosome 15q25 associated with lung cancer.

Abstract: Nonwoven webs comprising visible compressed sites and more particularly to disposable pre-moistened nonwoven webs comprising non-thermoplastic fibers exhibiting a fiber length of less than about 15 mm and one or more compressed sites comprising the non-thermoplastic fibers, wherein at least one of the one or more compressed sites is visible when wet, wipes comprising such nonwoven webs and methods for making such nonwoven webs.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to pre-moistened webs and wipes having visible compressed sites that provide the perception of a cloth-like texture. The disclosure also relates to a nonwoven web made of non-thermoplastic fibers with at least one compressed site on the surface of the web that remains visible when the web is pre-moistened.
