                                a liquid absorbent core between said sheets;                                  
                                at least one absorbent cuff comprised of a layer of                           
                         hydrophilic material disposed on top of the upper liquid permeable                   
                         sheet and affixed along at least one edge of said absorbent; and                     
                                at least one lateral wing comprised of continuous extension                   
                         of said upper liquid permeable sheet, said lower liquid impermeable                  
                         sheet, and said layer of hydrophilic material;                                       
                                said cuff when flexed moving away from said upper sheet to                    
                         provide a region for containing liquid.                                              
                   10. Roberts' claims corresponding to the count are claims 14, 15, 16, 18, 19, 20, 22 and

            disposable absorbent articles typically possesses at least a bachelor's degree in chemistry or    
            chemical engineering, material science or other fields of engineering such as mechanical          
            engineering and three to five years of experience in industry.
