A plurality of openings located on the vertical member are configured for receiving fasteners to attach an outward facing surface of the vertical member to a surface. The bracket also includes a lip that is vertically aligned along the frontward facing edge of the horizontal member. The lip is integral with the horizontal member and defines a ninety-degree angle.

Abstract: An absorbent article having a front side, a back side, a longitudinal axis notionally extending in a longitudinal direction from the middle of the front side to the middle of the back side. The absorbent article has a length L measured along the longitudinal axis. The absorbent article comprises a liquid permeable topsheet on the wearer-facing side, a liquid impermeable backsheet on the garment-facing side, an absorbent core between the topsheet and the backsheet, and an acquisition layer comprising two or more discrete longitudinally-orientated stripes of an acquisition material between the topsheet and the absorbent core. The topsheet forms recesses at the surface of the absorbent article in the gaps between the stripes.

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention provide processes or methods of forming a sugar by exposing a starting mixture of ingredients including water, sucrose and inositol to a heat source until the ingredients in the mixture are evenly distributed in a product mixture. The product mixture is subsequently removed from the heat source, cooled and hardened. The hardened product mixture is crushed and pulverized to form a modified sugar with a glycemic index that is lower than at least one of the ingredients of the starting mixture of ingredients.
