Absorbent products, such as sanitary napkins, are disclosed which are specially configured to minimally interact with the distorting and compressing mass and pressures of the inside of a wearer's thighs. The products utilize an absorbent pad comprising a top, body-facing portion and a bottom, garment-facing portion, wherein the top portion is generally rectangular and the bottom portion is configu...

A method of processing oxide materials by means of a laser beam with a photon energy being less than the band gap of the material. Initially, it might be expected that no absorption would take place. However, experience has shown that the different energy levels in the band gap may be utilized. These energy levels are apparently caused by several types of structural defects and imperfections, each...

The invention relates to a system for transmitting packet data in the air interface of a digital cellular system based on TDMA, Time Division Multiple Access.
