Abstract: A mold assembly includes a top mold with a female mold and a lower mold with a male mold that is moved to match with the female mold. The female mold includes a first core received in a recess in an inner periphery of the female mold and a second core received in a recess of the first core. A plurality of paths is defined through the female mold and respectively communicates with escape notches defined in the first core and the second core. Gaps are defined between the female mold, the first core and the second core respectively and the escape notches are in communication with the gaps such that only annular flanges are formed at edges of the paper products that have smooth surfaces. Each of the female mold and the male mold has a heating device for dehydrating the paper products.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a novel DNA sequence, which encodes a previously unidentified lignin biosynthetic pathway enzyme, sinapyl alcohol dehydrogenase (SAD) that regulates the biosynthesis of syringyl lignin in plants. Also provided are methods for incorporating this novel SAD gene sequence or substantially similar sequences into a plant genome for genetic engineering of syringyl-enriched lignin in plants.

Abstract: A network-based newspaper franchise system and method providing a Franchisee a website, a publication engine, publishing and sales training modules, a revenue reporting module, and hosting/service support over a communications network whereby an individual can publish a newspaper on a website over a communications system and generate revenues.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of concurrently introducing multiple genes into plants and trees is provided. The method includes simultaneous transformation of plants with multiple genes from the phenylpropanoid pathways including 4CL, CAld5H, AldOMT, SAD and CAD genes and combinations thereof to produce various lines of transgenic plants displaying altered agronomic traits. The agronomic traits of the plants are regulated by the orientation of the specific genes and the selected gene combinations, which are incorporated into the plant genome.

Abstract: The invention pertains to methods of altering growth, lignin content, coniferyl and sinapyl alcohol units in the lignin structure, disease resistance and cellulose content in plants by transformation with a lignin pathway p-coumarate Co-enzyme A ligase (4CL) nucleic acid.

Abstract: A vehicle steering command module as disclosed wherein the command module is necessary to start and control the motion of a vehicle, and once removed from the vehicle the command module can function as a personal computer. The vehicle steering command module includes a housing having a computer processing unit and a connection port. The connection port releasably connects the command module to one of a pair of spaced apart mating connection ports on an instrument panel of the vehicle, thereby completing a steer by wire circuit of the vehicle. Rotation of the command module controls the direction of travel of the vehicle when the command module is connected to one of the mating connection ports. The command module includes at least one input device operably connected to the computer processing unit. A cover of the steering command module is moveable between a closed position and an opened position, and includes a display screen operably connected to the computer processing unit.

Abstract: An improved pulp-forming mold-releasing machine having a turnaround table being reciprocatingly rotatable at a prearranged position within the machine body. A net mold (pulp-sucking mold) includes protruding forming members on the surface thereof while the turnaround table of the machine frame body can be fitted with a lower mold (male mold) having a heating pipe therein on the other surface thereof. A reciprocating slide frame is disposed on the top of the machine frame body and includes an upper mold driving device with an air-oil-pressure diversion cylinder adapted to drive the upper mold (female mold) with a heating pipe to lift. An elevating pulp material container is disposed under the net mold of the machine frame body. The forming members of the net mold turn over to an upward direction after sucking pulp fiber.

Abstract: A automatic pulp-forming mold-releasing machine comprising a lower mold disposed inside of a frame body, capable of reciprocatingly turning upside down and having protruding forming parts at top and bottom sides thereof which include air vents on the surface thereof capable of drawing and blowing air, and two synchronically reciprocatingly laterally shifting slide holders disposed at the top of the frame body and having upper mold lifting devices to drive the upper molds to move upwards and downwards, and air-drawing and air-blowing vent provided inside of the upper molds, and a liftable pulp container disposed under the lower mold of the frame body, characterized in that the pulp is absorbed to the forming parts at the bottom side of the lower mold; thereafter, it turns upside down to the top side, after dehydrated by the down-pressing of the upper mold, the formed pulp is absorbed upwards and lifted to be separate from the mold while the upper mold is laterally slid by the slide holder in position so that t

Abstract: Apparatus which utilizes the eyelet of a fish hook as the primary means of retaining, storing and dispensing at least one fish hook. The invention integrates mechanically with the structure of the fish hook to limit travel upon the apparatus such that the points of the hooks are continuously covered and the hooks are securely retained regardless of the orientation of the apparatus, until intentionally accessed by a user, thus preventing spillage during change in orientation of the apparatus or when accidentally dropped. The apparatus is intended to be worn external to the person, thus minimizing access time and physical motions needed to obtain a fish hook when needed. Fish hooks retained upon the invention may be rinsed as a group, and the open ends vinyl cover integrated into the apparatus are spaced to allow for natural air circulation upon the hooks to aid in drying after immersion, thus reducing the risk of the hooks being affected by corrosion.

Abstract: An information handling system transfers command blocks between a host processing side having a host processing unit and a host memory and a local processing side having a local processing unit and a local memory. The command blocks are transferred from the host processing side to the local processing side by storing the host address of the command block in a local side register set. Upon storing the host address a transfer signal is given to a command block transfer controller to start a command block transfer without the local processor unit intervention.

Abstract: This invention is to provide an electric means for driving a single-coil motor, which includes three diodes, a capacitor, and a coil-drive integrated circuit. The electric means of the invention is simple and compact, and it costs lower. Since there is only one coil in the single-coil motor, it is noiseless. In addition, the electric means of the invention can absorb the sudden peak of the voltage induced by the coil of the sinqle-coil motor.

Abstract: An information handling system transfers command blocks between a host processing side having a host processing unit and a host memory, and a local processing side having a local processing unit and a local memory. The local memory includes a command address queue portion for queuing local command address images containing the local addresses of the command blocks. A command block transfer controller is responsive to the local command address images for storing the transferred command block into a corresponding portion of the local memory.
