Abstract: In the formation of sheet glass by the overflow downdraw process, the width of usable sheet glass is maximized by downwardly flowing edge portions of the sheet over web-like members and thereafter over extensions which intersect with and are downwardly inclined relative to the web-like members to thin edge portions of the glass flow and maintain sheet width. The extension members are preferably removably attached to the web-like members, greatly facilitating replacement of the more easily damaged extension members.

Abstract: This invention relates to mass spectrometry that includes ion trapping in at least one of the stages of mass analysis. In particular, although not exclusively, this invention relates to tandem mass spectrometry where precursor ions and fragment ions are analysed. A method of mass spectrometry is provided comprising the sequential steps of: accumulating in an ion store a sample of one type of ions to be analysed; accumulating in the ion store a sample of another type of ions to be analysed; and mass analysing the combined samples of the ions; wherein the method comprises accumulating the sample of the one type of ions and/or the sample of another type of ions to achieve a target number of ions based on the results of a previous measurement of the respective type of ions.

Abstract: The present invention provides a production method of a semiconductor device, which can improve characteristics of a semiconductor element including a single crystal semiconductor layer formed by transferring on an insulating substrate. The present invention is a production method of a semiconductor device comprising a single crystal semiconductor layer formed on an insulating substrate, the production method comprising the steps of: implanting a substance for separation into a single crystal semiconductor substrate, thereby forming a separation layer; transferring a part of the single crystal semiconductor substrate, separated at the separation layer, onto the insulating substrate, thereby forming the single crystal semiconductor layer; forming a hydrogen-containing layer on at least one side of the single crystal semiconductor layer; and diffusing hydrogen from the hydrogen-containing layer to the single crystal semiconductor layer.

Abstract: Systems, methods, apparatus and products relate to display glass from curved glass ribbons, to improve shape stability in glass ribbons, to creation of reduced stress glass ribbons, and to creation of improved shape stability and reduced stress of display glass, which may include forming slightly a curved glass ribbon in a fusion draw machine (FDM). One or more embodiments may include an isopipe having a desired curvature; an isopipe having a desired incline; an offset draw device operable to draw the glass ribbon in an inclined ribbon draw direction; one or more air jets or vacuum operable to apply air pressure to a first side of the glass ribbon, thereby creating a pressure differential on the first side; and/or one or more electrostatic force generators operable to apply electrostatic force to a first side of the glass ribbon, thereby generating an electric field differential across the glass ribbon.

Abstract: 2-Chloro-5-trichloromethylpyridine is obtained by chlorinating ?-picoline in the vapor phase using a Mordenite zeolite or a supported palladium catalyst.

Abstract: A continuous process for manufacturing a sound absorbing tile made from a slurry including, quick setting cement, water, fibers and foaming agent, the process including the steps of (i) mixing cementitious material, water, foaming agent but without incorporation of prefabricated foam with fibers into a slurry; subsequently; (ii) injecting and distributing air into the slurry of step (i) to form a cellular slurry; subsequently; (iii) forming tiles or precursor products of tiles from the cellular slurry; and finally; (iv) allowing the cellular slurry to set into the desired tile or a precursor thereof.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a game table with a plurality of player stations with an integral lighting system. The game table, for example, a poker table, includes a light window adjacent all of the player stations. An illumination device is fixedly disposed beneath the light window. With such a configuration, lighting is provided from beneath the table, which minimizes shadows during television taping.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for attaching a proximity probe offset to an axis defining an extension cable. The method and apparatus include a sensing element; a cylindrical part molded with a moldable material; a recess configured in one of two opposing ends defining the cylindrical part to receive the sensing element; a first and a second ferrule each extending from opposing surfaces defining an exterior of the cylindrical part, a first axis defining the first and second ferrules being offset from a second axis defining the cylindrical part; and an extension cable operably attached to the sensing element via the first and second ferrules, the sensing element being disposed offset relative to the extension cable.

Abstract: A method of assembling a gas turbine engine includes providing a plurality of stator vane sectors that each include an equal number of stator vanes that are circumferentially-spaced such that a first circumferential spacing is defined between each pair of adjacent stator vanes within the sector, and coupling the plurality of stator vane sectors together to form a stator vane assembly such that a second circumferential spacing is defined between each pair of adjacent stator vanes coupled to adjacent sectors, wherein the second circumferential spacing is different from the first circumferential spacing.

Abstract: An interactive ordering system with animated guide that guides a customer or employee through the ordering process of a business. The animated guide is part of a software product that runs on a computer and receives and processes orders. The animated guide helps customers or employees through the ordering process by offering graphical and audio help in the form of tips, suggestions, and other forms of help that would normally be given by an employee. This new method of implementing an interactive ordering system makes it much easier for users to use ordering systems and saves time and money for business by saving on labor and training costs. The animated guide can come in many different forms including but not limited to cartoon characters and possibly even video-captured humans. The animated guide will be programmed specific to each system to provide help on the ordering process and to explain to the user how to use the system and to provide more information on items that could be ordered.

Abstract: A method for exhibiting a card game, such as a poker game, in which graphic and text data is superimposed on continuous video images of the game in progress to inform the video viewing audience of each player's cards and each player's bets. In this manner, the video viewers can get the feel of the game from each player's perspective while viewing the game at the same time. The graphic and text data is superimposed on the video image in the form of pop-up boxes which can be selectively displayed in an unobstructive manner.
