Abstract: An apparatus for incubating a plurality of receptacles includes one or more thermally-conductive receptacle holders, each comprising a plurality of receptacle wells. A thermally-conductive support is associated with each of the receptacle holders, and a thermal element is positioned between the associated support and the receptacle holder. A heat sink is in thermal communication with the support and comprises a plurality of spaced-apart fins. An optical fiber associated with each receptacle well has a first end positioned adjacent to or within a through-hole formed in the receptacle well and extends through through-holes formed in the support and the heat sink aligned with the through-hole of the receptacle well. Each of the optical fibers is positioned between two adjacent fins of the plurality of fins.

Abstract: Embodiments for determining an orientation of a scanned image. In an exemplary embodiment, a method comprises receiving image data of an image of one or more objects. Each object of the one or more objects in the image includes a plurality of points on a surface of the object. The method further comprises generating a plurality of subsets of points of the plurality of points and fitting a parametric model to more than one subset of the plurality of subsets to generate a plurality of parametric models. Further, the method identifies a parametric model of the plurality of parametric models that includes the largest number of points and orients the image based on the parametric model that includes the largest number of points.

Abstract: A surfactant composition including a C10 AOS and/or C12 AOS, and an effective amount of at least one solubilizing component so as to increase brine tolerance of the composition is disclosed. The solubilizing component comprises a mixture of where X is H, an alkali metal, alkaline earth metal or ammonium, and R is a linear C6-C16 alkyl group. A method of recovering hydrocarbons from a reservoir during gas injection into said reservoir is also disclosed which involves at least periodically injecting the gas and a foam-forming surfactant composition into the reservoir so as to assist in the recovery of hydrocarbons from the reservoir.

Abstract: A node for providing electrical power and one or more communication links to a field deployed system is disclosed. The node may comprise a power distributor configured to receive electrical power from an external power source and controllably distribute the electrical power to the field deployed system, an interface comprising a plurality of data ports configured to be connected to data lines of a corresponding plurality of components of the field deployed system, a plurality of communication links configured to transmit or receive data associated with the plurality of components of the field deployed system, and a router configured to route communication messages between the plurality of data ports and the plurality of communication links. The node may further comprise one or more processors configured to control the power distributor, the plurality of data ports, the plurality of communication links, and the router.

Abstract: The hand truck foot hook may comprise a retaining strap and a hook. The hand truck foot hook may be adapted to pull the bottom of a hand truck out from under a load using a foot of a user. The retaining strap may detachably couple to a shoe worn on the foot of the user. The hook may be coupled to the retaining strap such that the hook is accessible on the top of the foot. The hook may removably engage the bottom of the hand truck such that the bottom of the hand truck is pulled back when the shoe is pulled back. As a non-limiting example, the hook may engage an axle of the hand truck.

Abstract: A skin cleansing article configured to deliver cosmetics or dermal therapies to a user's skin and a method of making the same are provided. For example, the skin cleansing article includes a core substrate comprising a resin. The core substrate has a first region containing a first active cleansing formulation and a second region containing a second active cleansing formulation. The skin cleansing article is substantially dry or solid and is water-dispersible or water-soluble. When the water-soluble core substrate is contacted with water having a temperature greater than 10° C. for a period of time, the core substrate is dispersible or soluble according to Testing Method MSTM-205 to release the first active cleansing formulation and/or the second active cleansing formulation.

Abstract: A single unit dose article includes a water-soluble core substrate comprising a water-soluble resin. The water-soluble core substrate contains a carrier solvent with an active cleaning formulation, wherein upon contact of the carrier solvent with the water-soluble core substrate, the water-soluble core substrate exhibits shrinkage or swelling. Also disclosed are methods of making the single unit dose article.

Abstract: An article for cleaning or hand-washing an object includes a core substrate comprising a plurality of fibers including a resin. The core substrate has one or more abrasive surfaces and contains an active cleaning formulation. The resin and the core substrate are water-dispersible upon contact with water at a low temperature, such as 40° C. or below, and water-soluble upon contact with water at a higher temperature. Also disclosed are methods for making the article.

Abstract: The present invention is a roof drain assembly that comprises a dome mounted to a drain body by shock arrestors and a roof clamp that is securable to the drain body. A screen is positioned around the inlet and between the drain body and the dome. The shock arrestors and screen permit the dome to compress against the drain body while simultaneously absorbing the energy from an impact. As the shock arrestors compress, the screen also compresses. The resiliency of the screen and the shock arrestors permit the dome assembly to return to its passive state once the compression force is removed.

Abstract: A water lantern for floating on water with an LED candle is provided. The water lantern includes a base, dowel rods and a curtain. The base is designed with a tiered structure extending to a top surface with apertures formed therein to receive the dowel rods and a central recess for receiving the LED candle. The curtain is removably positioned over the base with the dowel rods maintaining the curtain in an expanded open position. The tiered structure of the base enhances the floating stability of the water lantern while also holding the LED candle above the water level to protect the LED candle from splashing water.
