A handheld projector is provided with an image stabilization system that acts to reduce (or even eliminate) unwanted motion of the projected image due to unintended movement of the projector. In certain preferred embodiments, a solid-state motion sensor provides input to an image stabilization system that computes a corrective signal. In embodiments having optical image stabilization, the corrective signal is supplied to a mechanical actuator that moves one or more optical elements within the projector. Other embodiments have electronic image stabilization. In these embodiments, the corrective signal from the image stabilization system is used by the image generator to shift the image so as to compensate for movement of the projector.

A biostable porous polyether or polycarbonate polyurethane implant is manufactured from diphenyl methane diisocyanate, difunctional polytetramethylene ether glycol or a polycarbonate polyol, a trimerisation catalyst, a chain extender, water, a cross-linking agent, a blowing and / or gelling catalyst and a surfactant. The porous biomaterial has isocyanurate linkages and avoid content in excess of 85%. The implant may be used as an occluder or a tissue bridge.

A flat panel antenna used at a wall in a through-the-wall CW radar application is spaced from the wall by a half wavelength to eliminate the effects of energy reflected by the wall back to the antenna. In one embodiment, a ½-wavelength dielectric absorbing material insert is placed adjacent the flat panel antenna, which allows the flat panel antenna to be pressed against the wall for antenna stabilization, with the index of refraction of the material desirably being 3.

Another aspect of the invention relates to lipid-based platinum compound formulations where the concentration of the platinum compound is greater than about 1.2 mg / ml.

In one aspect, the present invention relates to methods of treating cancer in a patient comprising administering intravenously to a patient in need thereof a cancer treating effective amount of a lipid-based platinum compound formulation wherein the concentration of the platinum compound of the lipid-based platinum compound formulation is greater than about 1.2 mg / ml.

A carrier of the present invention is used in a developer including a toner which includes at least a binder resin and an organic colorant, and the carrier has a core and a coating formed on the surface of the core, the coating including (i) a charge control agent for controlling a charge whose polarity is the same as a polarity of a charge controlled by a charge control agent included in the toner, and (ii) a conductive particles. The use of the carrier of the present invention enables: prevention of decrease in the charging amount of the toner which includes at least a binder resin and an organic colorant; and formation of a stable, high-resolution, high-quality image which has very few image defects such as a photographic fog.

An improved bi-directional snowboard having a board member with a pair of parallel, downwardly extending, reverse cambers or rockers disposed between a pair of snow boot bindings mounted on a top surface of the board member. The reverse cambers provide for reduced snow contact upon engaging the snow surface and increased speed during downhill racing. Also, the board member includes a pair of convex-shaped, traction planes on opposite sides of the board member between the board bindings. The traction planes provide for increased edge control and stability when making hard turns and during difficult snow conditions.

A magnetic head for a hard disk drive having a CPP read head sensor that includes a layered sensor stack including a free magnetic layer and hard bias elements that are disposed on the sides of the free magnetic layer to provide a biasing magnetization for the free magnetic layer. To increase the coercivity of the hard bias elements, and thereby improve the biasing of the magnetization of the free magnetic layer, the ratio (t / H) of the thickness t to the height H of the hard bias elements is fabricated to be within the range of from approximately 1 to approximately 1 / 15.
