An intracranial pressure monitoring system and method. The system includes an auditory stimulation and recording unit, which includes a stimulation controller, a memory for storing waveforms, a device for comparing received waveforms with stored waveforms, and an alarm operable based upon that comparison. The system includes at least one cranial electrode attachable to a patient, and an auditory stimulation device, operable by the stimulation controller. The stimulation device is a pair of acoustic ear inserts, each of which is connected to and operated by an auditory stimulator activated by the stimulation controller. In the method, a patient is auditorially stimulated to evoke a received waveform indicative of intracranial pressure, a comparison is generated by comparing the received waveform with one of an established patient baseline waveform and an established normal waveform, and an alarm is generated responsive to that comparison.

A one-piece, flip-top reclosable container embodying the present invention includes an outer carton having opposing top and bottom walls, front and back walls, and first and second side walls. The first and second side walls and the front wall include a preferential area of weakness for opening the carton from a sealed form to an unsealed form. The preferential area of weakness forms a lid hingedly connected to the top wall. The top wall includes a front top minor flap hingedly connected to an upper end of the front wall. An internal collar is integrally formed with the front top minor flap. The internal collar is disposed within the carton when the carton is in the sealed form. The internal collar includes a front panel and opposing first and second side panels adjacent to the respective front wall and the opposing first and second side walls of the carton. The front panel of the internal collar is detachably connected to the front top minor flap along at least one horizontal fold line. The internal collar optionally includes an extension flap comprised of at least one hinged portion and at least one island portion disposed in forcibly displaceable mutual engagement such that opening the lid exerts a force which disengages the mutual engagement and closing the lid leads to snap re-engagement of the hinged portion and the island portion.

A two-piece, crash-bottom basket carrier includes a bottom wall, a pair of opposing side walls, a pair of opposing end walls, a longitudinal partition, and one or more transverse partitions. The side walls and the end walls extend upward from the bottom wall, and the end walls bridge the opposing side walls. The bottom wall, the side walls, and the end walls are all formed from a first unitary paperboard blank. The longitudinal partition extends between the opposing end walls and is located approximately midway between the opposing side walls. The longitudinal partition is generally perpendicular to the bottom wall and the end walls and is generally parallel to the side walls. A handle is formed along an upper central handle section of the longitudinal partition to permit carrying of the basket carrier. Each of the transverse partitions extends between the longitudinal partition and one of the side walls. The transverse partitions are generally perpendicular to the bottom wall and the side walls and are generally parallel to the end walls. The transverse partitions serve to divide the interior of the basket carrier into multiple cells suitable for receiving respective beverage bottles. The longitudinal and transverse partitions are formed from a second unitary paperboard blank.

A paperboard container composed of a unitary, continuous blank, comprises opposing top and bottom walls, a plurality of side walls bridging the top and bottom walls, an upper minor flap, and a paperboard pour spout. The plurality of side walls includes a first side wall having upper and lower ends. The upper minor flap extends from the upper end of the first side wall, and the upper minor flap forms a portion of the top wall. The pour spout includes a spout body and a pair of spout wings hingedly connected to opposing edges of the spout body. The pour spout is pivotally coupled to the first side wall for movement between closed and open positions. The spout wings extend into the container via an opening in the first side wall. The pour spout further includes a backboard hingedly connected to the upper minor flap and adhered to an inner surface of the first side wall. The backboard partially overlaps the spout body. The spout wings form respective bumps at locations immediately adjacent to an upper edge and respective ones of the opposing edges of the spout body. The backboard forms a pair of shoulders which releasably engage the respective bumps. The spout wings form a pair of die-cut stops which project in generally opposite directions from respective ones of the opposing edges of the spout body. The stops are generally coplanar with the spout body.

A food package is provided wherein the accommodated food product, while remaining in the package, may be heated or cooked in a microwave oven. The food product has at least one predetermined portion thereof which requires enhanced heat while the product is being heated or cooked in the oven. The food package includes a container formed of heat resistant material which is pervious to the microwaves. A surface of the container is provided with an area which is in proximity to the predetermined portion of the food product requiring the enhanced heat. A metallized ink, consisting of metal particles suspended in an ink-like substance, is deposited on the surface area of the container. Thus, when the metallized ink is exposed to the generated microwaves, the required enhanced heat is produced in the vicinity of the surface area.

A recloseable paperboard container includes a bottom wall, opposing front and back walls, and opposing side walls. The back wall includes a first major top flap connected to an upper transverse edge of the back wall, the first major top flap having a top edge lock tab protruding from an outer edge of the first major top flap. The front wall includes a second major top flap connected to an upper transverse edge of the front wall, the second major top flap having a top edge slit disposed on the upper transverse edge of the front wall. The container is sealed either by securing the second major top flap over the first major top flap using adhesive, or by securing the first major top flap over the second major top flap through engagement of the top edge lock tab with the top edge slit. An integral tear strip extends across the second major top flap and is used to open a container sealed by securing the second major top flap over the first major top flap. After the container is initially opened, it is reclosed by engaging the top edge lock tab with the top edge slit. A minor top flap includes a "broken set" tab for indicating that the container has been previously opened and that a product has been removed.
