The invention relates to a carrier for sports equipment having a long shaft. The carrier has a base with shaftholders at opposite ends and a handle. The shaftholders hold the shaft in place to allow the sports player to carry the shafted equipment for long distances and alter the carrier's position while reducing stress on the wrist.

Apparatus, methods, and computer program products are disclosed that improve the operation of a computer that uses a top-of-stack cache by reducing the number of overflow and underflow traps generated during the execution of a program. An exception history is maintained that tracks recent occurrences of overflow and underflow exception traps. This exception history is hashed with the address of th...

The invention relates to a device, and a process for its charging, for carrying out high-temperature recycling for heterogeneously occurring waste, wherein the procedure is essentially effected by the known thermoselect process. The device of the invention is thus designed so that the heterogeneously occurring waste in unsorted form is compressed without any further pre-treatment to form compact p...

This is a compartment that provides for increased protection of PCMCIA cards when used in computers. The compartment is covered by a movable door which can be moved to accommodate various size PCMCIA cards with various type projections. Since the entire horizontal portion of a PCMCIA card will seat in the compartment, a firm support is provided for the entire card.

A device for making pellets of a material that can be made to solidify by changing its temperature having an endless belt (6) on which the material is placed at a feeding location and is conveyed along a processing path (7) to a guide roller (4) at a discharging location, and a member (2) for changing the temperature of the material on the belt (6) along the processing path (7). The endless belt (...

The development of graft versus host disease in a mammalian patient undergoing cell transplantation therapy for treatment of a bone marrow mediated disease, is prevented or alleviated by subjecting at least the T-cells of the allogeneic cell transplantation composition, extracorporeally, to at least one stressor selected from heat stressors and oxidative stressors, in appropriate dosage amounts. A...

The present invention relates generally to an apparatus and method for obtaining an azimuthally resolved nuclear magnetic resonance measurement of an earth formation traversed by a borehole. The measurement can be made while drilling or using a wireline tool. At least one gradient coil is positioned circumferentially around the tool. A magnetic held is produced by the coil in a region of the forma...

An NMR measurement apparatus is potentially subject to relative motion between the apparatus and a sample. The measurement apparatus includes at least one magnet, at least one coil and circuitry that is coupled to the magnet(s) and coil(s). The circuitry is adapted to use the magnet(s) and coil(s) to perform at least one NMR measurement and indicate the results of the NMR measurement(s). The resul...

La présente demande concerne un ensemble (1) comportant une coque (2) définissant au moins un compartiment (3) présentant un fond (4) et dont un bord délimite, dans une face opposée audit fond, une première ouverture (5), obturée par un premier élément de fermeture amovible (6), ledit compartiment (3) contenant de manière amovible un patch à la forme du compartiment, et constitué d'une matrice gél...

La présente demande concerne un patch cosmétique, pharmaceutique, ou dermatologique, comprenant une matrice formée à partir d'une composition contenant, dans une phase aqueuse, un système gélifiant hydrophile, formé de l'association de gomme de gellane avec au moins un autre hydrocolloïde.; A cosmetic, pharmaceutical or dermatological patch comprises a matrix formed from a composition (P) containi...

La présente invention concerne une composition solide pour application topique, contenant, dans une phase aqueuse, un système gélifiant comprenant (i) un premier hydrocolloïde qui est de la gomme de gellane, (ii) au moins un autre hydrocolloïde choisi dans le groupe formé par la gomme de xanthane, la carboxyméthylcellulose, l'hydroxypropyl-cellulose, la méthylcellulose, l'hydroxypropylméthyl-cellu...
