    Abstract: A plastic cutlery item, fabricated primarily from a plastic material, such as polystyrene, having a metallic coating that imparts to this cutlery item the appearance of metal cutlery or silverware. The plastic cutlery or tableware items are molded using traditional injection molding techniques, and subjected to a vacuum metallizing process in an individualized non-contiguous manner, where a thin metallic layer is deposited on at least one of their surfaces. The resultant items simulate the appearance of solid metal cutlery or tableware. In the most preferred embodiment of the invention the plastic cutlery or tableware items are molded from a light-transmitting grade of Polystyrene resin and are coated with a thin stainless steel layer through vacuum sputtering deposition on only one of the surfaces.

    Abstract: An apparatus and method for providing a two-piece, plastic, container particularly attractive for serving Margarita drinks and other well-known cocktails. A receptacle portion includes double flared side walls with a two-stage tapered plug on the bottom. The upper-stage of the plug secures the receptacle in a base portion and the lower stage of the plug provides for nesting of a plurality of receptacles to provide a compact and secure arrangement when packaged for shipping. A base portion supports the receptacle portion and individual base portions are nestable.

    Abstract: A method for on-line restoration of redundancy information in a redundant array storage system. The invention provides alternative methods of restoring valid data to a storage unit after a Write failure caused by a temporary storage unit fault. In the first preferred method, a valid redundancy block is generated for the corresponding data blocks on all storage units. Resubmitting the interrupted Write operation causes the old (and potentially corrupted) data block to be "subtracted" out of the re-computed redundancy block. The uncorrupted new data block is written over the old data block, and is "added" into the re-computed redundancy block to create a new, corrected redundancy block. The new, corrected redundancy block is written to the appropriate storage unit. In the second preferred method, a new redundancy block is generated from all valid data blocks and the new data block. The new redundancy block and the new data block are then written to the appropriate storage units. In both cases, the entire method is done on-line, with insignificant interruption of normal operation of the redundant array system, and without requiring added processing during normal operation.

    Abstract: Apparatus for heart rate fluctuation power spectrum analysis obtains an electrocardiogram signal from an electrocardiograph machine and a respiratory rate signal from an electroplethysmograph machine. These signals are processed by a data acquisition system to provide output suitable for heart rate fluctuation power spectrum analysis by a mini-micro-computer.Data manipulation includes correction of artifacts by substituting an appropriate heartbeat interval for detected heartbeat intervals for which the variance exceeds a preselected range of slewing rates. Trending of data and overlapping data analysis increase the analytical capabilities of the apparatus.Methods of treatment for conditions manifested by abnormalities in a heart rate fluctuation power spectrum involve applying treatments when spectral abnormalities are observed. Specific abnormalities indicating the need for treatment include: a level below about 0.1 (beats/min.).sup.2 in the power spectrum of heart rate fluctuations at a frequency between about 0.04 and about 0.10 Hz; a marked increase to above about 10 (beats/min.).sup.2 in heart rate fluctuations at a frequency between 0.04 and about 0.10 Hz; and a ratio of the area under a heart rate fluctuation power spectrum of a peak at a frequency between about 0.04 and about 0.10 Hz to the area under a peak in the respiratory heart rate fluctuation power spectrum centered at the mean respiratory rate (as measured by the apparatus) at about 0.1 Hz as having a value less than 2.0 for longer than or equal to about one hour or as having an absolute value greater than about 50.
