Abstract: A safety device for a motor vehicle having a door window defined by a retractable transparent panel which is guided into a receiving frame, the safety apparatus comprising a window insert formed of a sheet of material; a window frame including a transparent panel, the window frame having inside and outside surfaces; a lower mounting bracket for receiving the sheet, with an edge defined to be releasably inserted in the frame; an upper mounting bracket for receiving the sheet, the upper mounting bracket attached to the inside surface of the window frame.

Abstract: A method and system for providing access control to networked resources is provided. Optimally, the system comprises at least one networked resource coupled to the internet via a gateway having a ‘private’ or ‘internal’ side coupled to an intranet, and a ‘public’ or ‘external’ side coupled to the internet, and the gateway controls access to the resource. An access controller is coupled to the external side of the gateway, i.e. outside the intranet. Upon access request by an access requester, the gateway communicates the request to the access controller. The access controller utilizes the requested URL to select a login applet that is communicated to the requester. When the requester returns the login information, the access controller authenticates the user and generates an access management applet specific to the user. The access management applet controls access to the networked resources in conjunction with code on the gateway.

Abstract: A safety device for an automobile. The safety device being a window insert designed to fit within the standard frame of a window and be retrained within the frame by the upper edge of the window insert, along with the window, fitting into the upper channel of the window frame and the bottom of the window insert fitting into and being retained by a bracket with the lower edge fitting between the window and the lower inside weather stripping of the window. The window insert can be installed in thirty seconds, requires no modification to the window, window frame, or door, and when in place the window may be raised or lowered at any time. The window insert may include orifices to allow air inflow and/or outflow so as to provide a continuous flow of fresh air into the vehicle. The safety device may be used to retain a child or a pet, and can be formed from a plastic, plexiglass, or polycarbonate material. Alternatively, the window insert may be formed from a high impact or bullet proof material.

Abstract: A device provides simple positioning of the patient's head and simple positioning of the TMS coil relative to a coordinate system of the patient's head once the head is positioned. The TMS coil is fixed at a treatment position in the coordinate system of the patient's head and the position in the coordinate system is recorded for use in subsequent clinical sessions. A positioner assembly supports the weight of the TMS coil and allows the operator to freely move the TMS coil to search for the patient's motor threshold position (MTP) and/or the treatment position (TXP). If the TXP is in registration with the MTP, once the MTP is determined, the positioner assembly requires only a single adjustment of the magnet position to locate the TXP where the coil is locked in place for the duration of the TMS therapy.

Abstract: A computer software application for end-to-end management of the delivery of IP-configured integrated multimedia signals (e.g., TV, video, Website, etc.), on an interactive basis, to a subscriber device (being a personal computer (PC) and monitor coupled thereto or television/set-top box combination). The system manager comprises an interactive program guide (IPG) component configured for providing to the subscriber an interactive program guide (IPG) permitting selection of the multimedia signals by the subscriber and a subscriber device component associated with the subscriber device and configured for receiving instructions from the subscriber. The subscriber device includes a decoder configured for converting the selected IP multicast format signals into a format for display on PC monitor or television.

Abstract: A method for producing cosmetic samplers that incorporates the genuine cosmetic through the use of bulk thin film application techniques such as extrusion or spray technology. The method comprises first applying a cosmetic slurry to a base substrate and then attaching a cover sheet by means of an adhesive on either wide-web offset or label equipment.

Abstract: An in-ground light fixture is disclosed having multiple separate and watertight compartments for the various components of the fixture, allowing for maintenance and service of the fixture without exposing weather-sensitive components to the elements. The fixture also includes a pan and tilt assembly, which can be selectively controlled with a common household tool to change the direction of the light without having to access the pan and tilt assembly.

Abstract: A dry powder inhaler has a slider for incrementally advancing a blister disk, to provide successive doses of a dry powder pharmaceutical. A blister disk is rotatably supported on a spindle on a deck plate of the inhaler. A powder port, an advancing slot, and a lifter slot extend through the deck plate. A slider is attached to the deck plate and movable between open and closed positions. As the slider is opened, a litter moves up on a ramp on the slider to shear open a blister, so that the blister contents can be mixed with air and inhaled. As the slider is moved back to the closed position, the lifter is withdrawn and an advancing finger turns the disk to bring the next blister into position for opening to provide the next dose to the patient.

Abstract: A powder storage and delivery system for a drug powder inhaler has a carrier disk with a blister shell sealed by a shear layer. A tab is adhered to the shear layer, underneath the blister shell. The carrier disk is placed into a dry powder inhaler. An actuator pushes against the tab, causing the shear layer to tear away, releasing the powder drug contents from the blister into the dry powder inhaler. A disk carrier has bursting blisters with a brittle blister shell sealed with a foil lid, and covered by a plate. An actuator moves against the plate, causing the plate to buckle and the blister shell to burst open, releasing powdered drug into the dry powder inhaler.
