Video and telephony messaging are integrated by a telephony multimedia messaging system (101) connected to a plurality of video workstations (103-104) by a LAN or WAN (100). The workstations are connected to ISDN telephone lines (153-154). The workstations answer video calls on the video lines and/or on the LAN or WAN that go unanswered by users, record video messages from the video calls, and sen...

A crosslinkable mixture, containing a) at least one polysiloxane which contains at least two olefinic ally or acetylenically unsaturated multiple bonds, b) at least one polyhydrogensiloxane which contains at least two hydrogen atoms directly bonded to silicon, c) at least one substance which catalyzes hydrosilylation, d) at least one inhibitor, and e) at least one phosphorus compound of the formul...

The present invention is directed to a purified polyalkylsiloxane composition having a boiling point, under atmospheric conditions, of less than about 250.degree.C and containing high boiling impurities, including siloxanes and silanol-terminated siloxanes, that have boiling points, under atmospheric conditions, of greater than about 250.degree.C in a total concentration of less than 14 ppm. The p...

The contents of a pair of mailboxes (21, 31), one of which resides in an e-mail system (29) and the other of which resides in a voice-mail system (39), are automatically synchronized both in message content and in message state by a synchronizer (10), even though messages in the two mailboxes may have different data structures and carry information expressed in different media and having different...

A device and method are provided for locating faults in a paired line. The fault locating device has a base unit and a terminator unit connectable to the conductors of a paired line containing the fault. The device also has a portable locator unit movable along the paired line between the base unit and the terminator unit. The locator unit contains a coil positioned at the paired line for coupling...

A resilient fastener or zipper, which may be incorporated as part of a bag, pouch, wrapper or liner, or which may be used as a protective garment closure, includes a pair of flexible closure strips and at least one zipper slider. The strips include interlocking ribs and channels of complementary crosssectional shape which lock together in an interference fit. The ribs have enlarged heads, and, com...

The invention concerns a method of removing nitrogen oxides from a gas flow. The gas flow is guided: (A) through a stage in which the nitrogen oxides, apart from N2O, are absorbed in an absorption agent, or the nitrogen oxides, apart from N2O, are reacted with an absorption agent at a pressure of between 1.5 and 20 bar; and (B) through a stage for reducing the N2O content, preferably using the pre...

A thermoplastic slab breaking apparatus comprising a housing with a slab receiving aperture and an exit aperture on the base of said housing; a conveyor for conveying a continuous hot melt thermoplastic slab from a hot zone to a cool zone within said housing; a first rotatable slab breaker member comprising a pinwheel or a rigid rod with a plurality of rigid tines projecting radially outward there...

The device comprises a wall rail (10) having a vertical slot (24) which works in conjunction with an angle fixture (26) fitted inside the cabinet. By connecting components (40,54), the angle fixture and the wall rail are joined to one another so that the angle fixture is fixed in a height direction.
