Abstract: A method for forming a knockout on a raceway includes removing a knockout from the raceway to form an opening, positioning the knockout within the opening, and thereafter attaching the knockout to the raceway by welding the knockout and the raceway together.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides apparatuses, systems, and methods involving a spotter apparatus for depositing a substance from a carrier fluid onto a deposition surface in an ordered array. The spotter apparatus includes a loading surface, including a first well and a second well, and a different outlet surface, including a first opening and a second opening, where a first microconduit fluidly couples the first well with the first opening and a second microconduit fluidly couples the second well with the second opening. An overlay is sealed to the outlet surface and penetrated by a deposition channel that is situated to communicate carrier fluid among the first opening, the second opening, and the deposition surface when the overlay is pressed against the deposition surface.

Abstract: Provided is an X-ray apparatus including: a target configured to generate an X-ray by collision of electrons or transmission of electrons; a filament configured to release the electrons to the target; a housing that has the filament therein; and a first holding member configured to hold a portion of the target disposed on an outer side of the housing on the outer side of the housing.

Abstract: A method of washing a vehicle and apparatus therefore is disclosed. In one aspect, a parameter indicative of the rotation of the top brush of the apparatus is monitored, and a vertical position of the top brush relative to the vehicle and controlled. In another aspect, a lift system for the top brush includes at least one pliable strap. In yet another aspect, the lift system has a safety feature for retracted the top brush to an upper position.

Abstract: A method of washing a vehicle and apparatus therefore is disclosed. In one aspect, a wheel washing apparatus is pivotable about a vertical axis. In another aspect, wheels of the vehicle are applied a selective treatment, different from a side of the vehicle.

Abstract: A method of creating rigid cards (32) having an exercise routine (58) thereon for use by a user (26). The rigid cards (32) are prepared utilizing a computer (34) in communication with a database (40). A plurality of exercises (54) are determined and the exercises (54) are input into the computer (34) to define the exercise routine (58) specific to the user (26). A unique identifier (60) specific to the user (26) is input into the computer (34) and linked to the exercise routine (58). The unique identifier (60) and the exercise routine (58) are stored in the database (40) and printed on the rigid card (32). The method further includes modifying the exercise routine (58) and inputting the modified exercise routine into the computer (34) to define an alternative exercise routine (144). The alternative exercise routine (144) is linked to the unique identifier (60) and stored in the database (40). The unique identifier (60) and the alternative exercise routine (144) are printed on a second rigid card (116).

Abstract: A method and apparatus for processing a waste product and producing a synthesis gas is provided. The system includes a sealed, heated rotatable drum for preheating and preparing the waste material suitable for a plasma reactor, and processing the material in the reactor. The synthesis gas created by the reactor is used to preheat the waste material by circulating the hot synthesis gas around the drum. In an alternative embodiment, the hot synthesis gas flows through the drum to preheat the waste material and to clean the synthesis gas. Different methods of cooling and cleaning the synthesis gas are used. The system may comprise two plasma reactors in combination with a rotating desorber drum.

Abstract: A visually-appealing, multi-component, packaged microwaveable frozen meal that includes at least two different, discrete, individually frozen edible components assembled on a support member to form the frozen meal that mimics a prepared meal, and a microwaveable film disposed adjacent the frozen components that conforms and adheres sufficiently tightly to the components and the support member is disclosed. The film and the support member form an enclosure having a reduced pressure therein. The film is at least sufficiently translucent or transparent so that a consumer can readily view a portion of the frozen meal as a complete, multi-component meal ready for serving.
