Abstract: A multistatic radar has a radar transmitter for illuminating a target with a radar signal. The target reflects the radar signal to three separate radar receivers, each performing a bistatic range measurement to the target. The three bistatic range measurements are combined in a quadratic equation having two solutions (roots). One solution (root) corresponds to a correct three dimensional target position with respect to the radar transmitter while the other is an incorrect three dimensional target position with respect to the radar transmitter. The incorrect three dimensional target position is identified and eliminated by comparing the three dimensional target position to the transmitter location, and the receiver locations. The incorrect three dimensional target position is also identified by the target altitude exceeding a threshold, typically set above 80,000 feet AGL.

Abstract: An herbal-based oral composition for promoting darkening of human hair color upon periodic retention of the composition within the oral cavity includes an herbal mixture included at a level of from 2.5 to 15% of the total weight of the herbal mixture in a toothpaste or chewing gum base. The herbal mixture includes prepared Rhizoma Ligustici Chuanxiong, Calculus Bovis, Indigo Naturalis, Herba Ecliptae, Radix Polygoni Multiflori, Pericarpium Trichosanthis, Radix Sophorae Flavescentis, Spina Gleditsiae, Radix Angelicae Sinensis, Rhizoma Drynariae, Fructus Mori, and Halitum. The composition is found effective at darkening hair color when held in the oral cavity for a short period of time two times a day for a period of six weeks.

Abstract: A management communication terminal is formed by integrating an electronic, raster scanning camera with a personal computer. The terminal has a keyboard, a Winchester disk drive, a telecommunication controller, a cathode ray tube monitor, and a thermographic, raster image printer. Two such terminals define an office information system for the exchange of information produced at the keyboards and by the cameras. In each terminal, the coded data generated at the keyboard and the raster image data generated by the camera are temporarily stored in separate data buffers and from there are routed to the monitor, the printer and disk storage. The monitor and printer are able to display and print respectively, images created from the keyboard data, the camera data or a combination of the two. The camera data is compressed prior to storage and is reduced in resolution prior to application to the monitor.
