A dispensing head for application of shave lubricating material such as foam, gel or lotion to the skin of a user includes a spreading blade portion with a flexible blade with a concave spreading surface and an outer spreading edge. A dose of the material is applied to the blade from a source to be released from the spreading edge for spreading between the spreading surface and the skin. Dimples on the spreading surface hold it away from the skin. The spreading blade portion is generally fan shaped with side edges extending outwardly from an inner edge to an arcuate outer edge at the spreading edge A vibration motor located behind the spreading surface for vibrating the spreading surface and the spreading edge thereon is provided to assist in spreading the material.

A method of interconnecting transistors and other devices in order to optimize area of a layout of a cell while honoring performance constraints (1502) and enhancing yield starts with a prerouting step (152) that routes adjacent transistors using diffusion wiring (1506), routes power and ground nets (1508), routes aligned gates (1510), routes all remaining aligned source/drain nets as well as any special nets (1512). Next, all of the remaining nets are routed using an area based router (1408). Nets are order based on time criticality or net topology (1602). A routing grid is assigned for all the layers to be used in routing (1604). An initial coarse routing is performed (1606). Wire groups are assigned to routing layers (1608). Routing is improved and vias are minimized (1610). A determination is then made whether the routing solution is acceptable (1612). If the routintg solution is not acceptable, the routing space is expanded and routing costs and via costs are modifyied to improve the routing solution. Finally, the best routing solution is picked (1414).

A device to inexpensively repair a wooden post that has rotted or failed. The device comprises a plate which has a plurality of holes drilled or punched in it for attaching above ground level to a side of a wooden post and at least two rods depending out and down from the face of the plate. At least one of the rods depends near the top of the plate and at least one of the rods depends near the bottom of the plate. This location of the rods allows them to work cooperatively in tension-compression to counteract a moment tending to overturn the post. The rods extend into a hole dug in the soil adjacent to the existing post footing. After the fence has been aligned as desired, the hole is filled with concrete surrounding the rods.

Uniformly formatted sets of data are collected from a remote site and electronically transmitted back to a central collection site. In this process, data to be collected is specified. Then, a questionnaire specification file is generated. The questionnaire specification file defines the file specification and associated data structure for creating questionnaires. A telecommunications link is established between a central computing/data processing unit at the central collection site and a remote computing/data processing unit at the remote site. The questionnaire specification file is electronically transmitted to the remote data processing unit. In the remote unit, the defined file specification and associated data structure in the questionnaire specification file is used to create at least one questionnaire. The questionnaire is completed at the remote site by entering questionnaire data into the remote unit. The data is then transmitted in report format back to the central unit at the central collection site.
摘要:
A method for automatically selecting tie styles used during the horizontal placement of substrate and well ties. A linear order of tie styles is determined (2422). Ties are placed horizontally in the layout based upon an initial tie style (2424). Route and compact layout components (2426). If the layout has satisfied the tie coverage rules (2428) the tie style selection process is complete. Otherwise, contacts, vias and ties are added where possible (2430). If the layout has now satisfied the tie coverage rules (2432) tie style selection process is complete. If not, the next tie style is chosen from the linear order (2434). The process continues by placing (2424), routing and compacting components (2426) with the new tie style, until the cell satisfies the tie coverage rules.

A method for automatically synthesizing standard cell layouts(170) given a circuit netlist, a template describing the layout style and a set of process design rules (136) starts by numerating an ordered sequence of physical netlists from the logical netlist(138). Next, a netlist is selected from the ordered sequence of physical netlists (140). Components are placed according to the selected physical netlist (144). The components are routed to implement interconnections specified by the netlist (154). The components are compacted (156). A next netlist is selected from the ordered sequence of physical netlists. The steps of placing, routing and compacting the components are repeated. The layout with the smallest width is selected(166). Finally, ies, contacts and vias are added and notches filled (170) to improve yield and performance of the circuit.

In one aspect, a system for presenting a share box with content information in response to an endorsement includes an endorsement sharing module that is responsive to user input and creates a sharing box having content derived from the user context and input request. The endorsement sharing module receives a user request to share information. In response, this endorsement sharing module determines the context of the user, retrieves content based on the context, filters the content based on publisher information, personalizes the share box content, and adds the content to a share box. The endorsement sharing module also adds one or more actions to the share box after which the share box is provided for display to the user.
