  Vision Loss -- Recommendations and Resources   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-25)
Bridging loss: At a given frequency, the loss that results when an impedance is connected across a transmission line.
The loss resulting from the insertion of a device in a transmission line, expressed as the reciprocal of the ratio of the signal power delivered to that part of the line following the device to the signal power delivered to that same part before insertion.
In telecommunication, return loss is the ratio, at the junction of a transmission line and a terminating impedance or other discontinuity, of the amplitude of the reflected wave to the amplitude of the incident wave.

 Hair Loss Solutions and Treatment Options
In contrast, I conceptualize the hairline as a larger, 2-4 cm area bridging the bald forehead to the mid frontal region.
The greater the degree of hair loss the wider and more diffuse this "transition zone" should be, mimicking the pattern found when more sever hair loss occurs in nature.
Incisions are made that create multiple triangular shaped bridges between the defined zone and the anterior border of the transition zone.

 Use of low M.S. hydroxyethyl cellulose for fluid loss control in oil well applications - Patent 4629573
Bridging particles comprised of solid carbonate powders which serve to "bridge" across or plug the pores of a permeable formation are disclosed in U.S. Pat.
As used throughout the specification and claims, the fluid loss of a drilling fluid is defined in terms of the API fluid loss test commonly used in the petroleum industry which is described in "Standard Procedure For Testing Drilling Fluids", Section 3, Filtration, American Petroleum Institute, API RP 13B, 7th Edition, April 1978, pages 8-9.
Accordingly, effective fluid loss control can be achieved with HEC in accordance with the invention in the absence of additional fluid loss additives or bridging particles in the drilling fluid, such as described in U.S. Pat.

 Lawn Patching Bald Spot Web-Site And Update   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-25)
Since the majority of hair loss in women is reversible, finding treatment and dealing with hair loss is generally a relatively easy task for women; and therefore, in most cases, they do not have to face the notion of becoming bald versus men who may not be able to reverse hair loss.
With the multiple types of treatment and prevention of hair loss, along with the fact that most cases of hair loss in women are reversible, many women are able to overcome hair loss, or at least attempt to overcome hair loss.
Therefore hair loss in women may be a temporary condition, occurring during different phases of life — from young adulthood to old age — and may be caused by different sources — hormonal or heredity.

 Optical cross-connect switching system with bridging, test access and redundancy - US Patent 6597826   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-25)
performing a bridging operation by splitting the incoming light signal into at least a first outgoing light signal routed over a first optical data path and a second outgoing light signal routed over a second optical data path, the second outgoing light signal to monitor for disruption of the first optical data path.
Bridging means that at least two optical paths are provided between I/O port modules carrying the same light signals.
An incoming light signal is bridged by a splitter 1405 at a source I/O port module 1400 to produce a first and second outgoing light signals.

 Development of Router Clusters to Provide Fast Failover in IP Networks   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-25)
Bridging control protocols may be used similarly in smaller networks or may be used in combination with routing.
Loss of an adjacency causes a router to issue a revised (set of) link-state messages reflecting its new view of the local topology.
We do not recommend putting a bridge or layer 2 switch between members of a router cluster, because during failover, action would be required from the bridge in order for the primary router to receive packets that previously were not present on its side of the bridge.

 Bridging the Summer Reading Gap
Regardless of other activities, the best predictor of summer loss or summer gain is whether or not a child reads during the summer.
Understandably, summer reading loss or "summer setback" is a bigger problem for children from low-income families.
This means that a summer reading loss of three months accumulates to a crucial two-year gap by the time kids are in middle school, even if their schools are equally effective.

 The PERFFLOW® DIF System: Features
The bridging agent used in the PERFFLOW DIF system is a very pure metamorphic calcium carbonate with a carefully selected particle size distribution.
This bridging agent, combined with polymer viscosifiers and filtration control agents, forms a thin filter cake at the surface of the exposed formation.
Notice the calcium carbonate in Figure B appears coated and much wetter than that in Figure A. Our proprietary polymers adsorb onto the bridging particles, reducing their adherence to one another under differential pressure, forming a filter cake that is more easily dispersed during production.

 BUILDING (SCOTLAND) ACT 2003 CONSULTATION ON BUILDING REGULATIONS AND GUIDANCE DOCUMENT: page 78
With the Elemental Method and Heat Loss Method a building fabric improvement is allowed against heating systems which have a high carbon intensity (see 6.3), but in general the energy efficiency of the building services are considered as separate issues.
To use the Heat Loss Method, the insulation envelope of a non-domestic building should have a total rate of heat loss which is not greater than that which would occur from a notional building (of the same size and shape) which follows the guidance given for the Elemental Method.
After the total rate of heat loss has been established for the proposed building, this process should be repeated but this time demonstrating the total rate from the notional building.

 Impedance - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
When fitting components together to carry electromagnetic signals, it is important to match impedance, which can be achieved with various matching devices.
Failing to do so is known as impedance mismatch and results in signal loss and reflections.
The existence of reflections allows the use of a time-domain reflectometer to locate mismatches in a transmission system.

 Oil Technical Halliburton   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-25)
Sometimes sufficiently good results have been obtained simply by reducing the slurry density whereas other instances have occurred where bridging materials were found to be most helpful, but there still remained zones of loss which would not react satisfactorily to either of these methods.
Materials such as ground nut shells, granulated plastics, and cellophane flakes have been used as bridging agents with excellent results where lost circulation problems were of a relatively minor nature, but they have not been too successful where major difficulties were encountered.
Because of the advantageous scouring action of Gilsonite in mud removal and the possibility of premature bridging, it is also believed that a bottom-cementing plug should not be necessary and that the use of wall-cleaning devices should be held to a minimum to reduce possible restrictions in the annulus.

Heat loss due to air leakage is described in Section 05.03.

Distinct functional domains in emerin bind lamin A and DNA-bridging protein BAF.Disease mutation Delta95-99 mapped to the lamin-binding domain and disrupted lamin A binding in vitro.
Loss of emerin, a lamin-binding nuclear membrane protein, causes Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy.
The disease-linked emerin proteins all remained active for binding to BAF, both in vitro and in vivo, suggesting that disease can result from the loss of specific molecular interactions between emerin and either lamin A or putative novel partner(s).

Bridging fibers coursed through small areas where the host ONL, ONL(h), was discontinuous (B, arrow), but not where host photoreceptor cells were present at the graft–host interface.
Bridging fibers were otherwise generally found traversing larger areas than at the earlier survival time (G, H, arrows).
