A printhead IC for an inkjet printer that mounts the printhead IC together with at least one other like printhead IC to provide a pagewidth printhead for printing onto a media substrate fed past the printhead in a feed direction, the printhead IC comprising: an elongate array of nozzles, the nozzles arranged into rows, at least one of the rows having a first section positioned on a line extending perpendicular to the feed direction, a second section positioned along a parallel line displaced from the first section, and an intermediate section of nozzles extending between the first section and the second section; and a supply conduit for providing printing fluid to the first section, the second section and the intermediate section, the supply conduit having a first portion extending perpendicular to the feed direction for supplying the first section of nozzles, a second portion extending perpendicular to the feed direction for supplying the second section of nozzles and an inclined portion for supplying the intermediate section of nozzles.

A method, system, and / or apparatus for automatically monitoring for possible mental or physical health concerns. The method or implementing software application uses or relies upon location information available on the mobile device from any source, such as cell phone usage and / or other device applications. The method and system automatically learns user activity patterns and detects significant deviations therefrom. The deviations are automatically analyzed for known correlations to mental or physical concerns, which can then be automatically communicated to a relevant friend, family member, and / or medical professional.

A system for accurately modeling of buyer / purchaser psychology and ranking of content objects within a channel for user initiated browsing and presentation contains a neuropsychological modeling engine, a ranking application, and a behavior modeler which communicate with each other and a presentation system over communication networks. The neuropsychological modeling engine utilizes metafiles associated with content objects, a purchaser / viewer model and a channel model to derive a value ψ representing an individual's mood and a value m representing an individual's motivational strength to select a content object. If the value ψ is within an acceptable predetermined range, the value m is used to determine a ranking for the content object relative to other content objects associated with the channel model. Also disclosed are a system and technique for simultaneously presenting multiple, s content object data streams on the user interface in a manner which encourages multidimensional browsing using traditional navigation commands.

Compositions and methods useful in the reduction of localized fat deposits in patients in need thereof using pharmacologically active detergents are disclosed. The pharmacologically active detergent compositions can additionally include anti-inflammatory agents, analgesics, dispersion or anti-dispersion agents and pharmaceutically acceptable excipients. The pharmacologically active detergent compositions are useful for treating localized accumulations of fat including, for example, lower eyelid fat herniation, lipodystrophy and fat deposits associated with cellulite and do not require surgical procedures such as liposuction.

By forming a stressed dielectric layer on different transistors and subsequently relaxing a portion thereof, the overall process efficiency in an approach for creating strain in channel regions of transistors by stressed overlayers may be enhanced while nevertheless transistor performance gain may be obtained for each type of transistor, since a highly stressed material positioned above the previously relaxed portion may also efficiently affect the underlying transistor.

A system and method for improving the accuracy of a speckle-based image correlation displacement sensor provides ultra-high accuracy by ensuring that, in the absence of motion, the speckle image does not vary over time. In one embodiment, the speckle image is stabilized by reducing or compensating for laser diode wavelength changes. Various methods for stabilizing the wavelength include thermoelectric temperature control, measuring and correcting the wavelength by any suitable means, or providing a specific wavelength of light feedback from an external grating. Image stabilization may also be accomplished by monitoring the warm-up process of the system. Once the system is determined to have completed the warm-up process, an indicator is provided to the user to indicate that the system is ready for use. Sensor geometric configurations that reduce or eliminate wavelength-related errors are also disclosed.

The invention provides a power tube gate driving circuit and a sectional driving method. The power tube gate driving circuit comprises a pre-driving stage, an output voltage comparison unit and a tri-state compensation driving stage, wherein the pre-driving stage is used for controlling rising time and falling time of a driving signal, so as to switching on or off an insulated gate power switching device; the output voltage comparison unit is used for comparing voltage of the driving signal output by the pre-driving stage with a set threshold value, and then outputting a switching control signal; and the tri-state compensation driving stage is used for charging or discharging a driving output port in a compensatory manner under the enabling action of a switching control signal and the action of the switching control signal output by the output voltage comparison unit, and accelerating the driving output port to pull up or pull down, so as to fully switching on or off the insulated gate power switching device. The power tube gate driving circuit is simple in structure, requires no resistance and capacitance devices, reduces domain area, and has the advantages that gate charging / discharging speed is less affected by variation of capacitive loads, the efficiency is high, the driving circuit is safe and reliable, and the like. The sectional driving method can reduce EMI effectively and reliably.
