A self-locking screw (30) assures uniform mating and locking between its threads (64) and those (70) of an article (68) into which the screw is threaded. A head (34) includes a central portion (54) and an annular outer portion (52) which surrounds the central portion and which carries the screw threads on its periphery. Slots (18) extend through the head to a base (32) to segregate the head into segments (40). Annularly configured joints (60) respectively join the segments of the outer portion to the central portion and include tubular openings (56, 58) which extend from the joints and which are positioned between the segments of said central and outer portions. A hole (42) including cylindrical (44) and conical (46) portions respectively extend through the base and the head, and from the tubular hole portion and through the head. A bolt (72), including a cylindrical shaft (74) and an enlarged head (76) with a conical surface (78) which joins said head to said shaft and which engages the conical hole portion, first pivots both the central portion and the outer portion segments as a unit about the base to initially lock an upper portion of the screw threads and the article threads together, and then pivots the outer portion segments with respect to both the central portion segments and the base as a unit to lock together the remaining screw threads with substantial uniformity and the threads of the article.

An active vehicle suspension system has a suspension device with a variable offset gas spring and a double acting hydraulic actuator acting in parallel. Load changes experienced by the device are sensed electrically, or electrically and hydraulically, so as to effect appropriate response of the device by adjustment of the actuator pending change of the offset of the gas spring, so as to reduce energy requirements.

There is provided herein a composition comprising: (A) a silanol and/orhydrocarbon-terminated polyorganosiloxane in an amount of from about 30 weight percent to about 90 weight percent; and, (B) a moisture curable silylated polyurethane resin in an amount of from about 10 weight percent to about 70 weight percent. There is also provided herein in another embodiment a two part sealant composition wherein the first part comprises: (A) a silanol and/or hydrocarbon-terminated polyorganosiloxane in an amount of from about 15 weight percent to about 60 weight percent, (B) a moisture curable silylated polyurethane resin in an amount of from about 2 weight percent to about 32 weight percent, and (C) a filler, said weight percents being based on the weight of the first part. In addition, there is provided herein a fumed silica composition comprising: (A) a silanol and/or hydrocarbon-terminated polyorganosiloxane in an amount of from about 20 weight percent to about 62 weight percent; (B) a moisture curable silylated polyurethane resin in an amount of from about 8 weight percent to about 38 weight percent; and, (C) a treated fumed silica in an amount of from about 5 to about 10 weight percent.

A print controller in a printing system includes a reprogrammable page description language (PDL) processor that defines a page-break function. The print controller also includes a job ticket interpreter. The print controller receives a printable file in the page description language that contains logical pages indicated by page-break indicators. The job ticket interpreter receives a job ticket associated with the printable file and containing layout parameters for the logical pages. The job ticket interpreter re-defines the page-break function in the PDL processor so that the print controller prints a plurality of the logical pages without referencing the job ticket for each page. In some embodiments, the PDL processor is a PostScript processor and the job ticket interpreter is a JDF interpreter encoded as a PostScript program interpreted by the PostScript interpreter.
