Abstract: This invention relates to a novel personal care product having a treatment sheet includes a first material and a plurality of first apertures, and at least one support sheet includes a second material and a plurality of second apertures, the at least one support sheet disposed beneath the treatment sheet and desirably joined to the treatment sheet. The first apertures of the treatment sheet include cutting edges generally formed on at least a portion of an inner perimeter of the first apertures while the support sheet does not include cutting apertures. The first and second apertures are aligned such that from a top view of the product, the apertures of the support sheet are not visible, providing ease of rinsing. The support sheet assists in reducing damage to the treatment sheet (e.g., if the personal care product is dropped).

Abstract: A retractable boat awning or “bimini cover” is provided. The present retractable boat awning may replace existing awnings on a boat or may be added to a boat which lacks an awning. The present retractable boat awning has a first folding locking bar and a second folding locking bar which are concealed within a slim securing container when the device is not in use. To use the awning, the first and the second locking bar are rotated outward from the interior of the securing container and secure a protective awning fabric cover. The awning may be fully assembled into the usable form or may be collapsed into the stored securing container in around a minute.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a system and methods generally aimed at surgery. More particularly, the present invention is directed at a system and related methods for performing surgical procedures and assessments involving the use of neurophysiology.

Abstract: Methods are provided for planning, performing, and assessing of surgical correction to the spine during a spinal surgical procedure. These methods are implemented by a control unit through a GUI to digitize screw locations, digitize anatomical reference points, accept one or more correction inputs, and generate one or more rod solution outputs shaped to engage the screws at locations distinct from the originally digitized locations.

Abstract: A system and method for treating gas to fuel turbines by passing raw gas through an inlet pressure reducing valve to adjust the gas pressure and through a scrubber to capture liquids from the gas. Next, the gas is passed through a compressor to bring it to a pressure above that required by an inlet of a turbine and then to a post-compression aerial cooler that cools the gas to a temperature lower than a required dewpoint at fuel delivery pressure. Next, natural gas liquids are removed from the gas by passing it through a separator. A first portion of the cooled compressed gas is sent through a gas-to-gas heat exchanger, creating heated compressed gas, and a second portion of the cooled compressed gas passes through a backpressure valve. The heated compressed gas is blended with the second portion to create a fuel gas stream with a desired delivery temperature.

Abstract: A method for removing natural gas liquids from raw natural gas involving the steps of: passing untreated gas through a scrubber to remove liquid droplets and contaminants; delivering the untreated gas to a compressor, which pressurizes the untreated gas to create pressurized gas; passing the pressurized gas through a first aerial cooler to discharge heat to atmosphere; providing a chilled air exchanger and an air chilling unit; chilling air by passing the air through the air chilling unit to create chilled air; delivering the chilled air to the chilled air exchanger; passing the pressurized gas through the chilled air exchanger to cool the pressurized gas to a setpoint to create cooled pressurized gas; and delivering the cooled pressurized gas to a separator to remove liquids from the cooled pressurized gas, thereby creating processed gas. A system having the components listed above.

Modulated optical signals may be received in the photonics die from optical fibers coupled to the fiber connector.

Abstract: A method for conditioning natural gas for downlink applications comprising pulling raw gas; cooling the gas to a temperature within a preset temperature range; removing solid contaminants and condensed liquids from the gas; reducing gas pressure to meet the requirements of the inlet side of a compressor; controlling the rotational speed of the compressor based on data input from various flow meters; delivering the preconditioned gas to the suction side of the compressor; elevating gas pressure to achieve a desired discharge pressure; using an aerial cooler to cool the pressurized gas; delivering the pressurized gas to a separator to separate the liquids from the gas; repeating the compression, cooling and separating steps until desired temperature and pressure are achieved; cooling the gas through the use of a heat sink; removing liquids from the gas through the use of a separator; and adjusting the final gas pressure and temperature.

Abstract: A system and method for treating associated gas in which a stream of raw gas is passed through safety valving, an inlet pressure control mechanism, and an inlet scrubber. Pressure/temperature data is transmitted to a control system via pressure and temperature transducers. The raw gas is sent to a gas compressor to generate pressurized gas, which is sent to an aerial cooler and a chiller heat exchanger, in which a chilling media contacts the pressurized gas. The chilled pressurized gas is sent to a vapor liquid separator to generate processed gas, which is routed through either a system backpressure valve or a pressure reducing recycle valve that directs the processed gas to the inlet scrubber. The processed gas that has passed through the system backpressure valve is delivered as fuel or routed through a backpressure regulating recycle valve that directs the processed gas to a system inlet pressure reducing valve.

Abstract: A system and method for creating customized insurance-related forms (e.g., agreements, policies, exceptions, and other insurance-related documents) using computing devices is disclosed. A user can quickly and conveniently create customized insurance-related forms, and can transmit same to one or more remote users and/or computing systems for further processing. The system provides rich tagged searching and editing features for allowing an insurance professional to rapidly create customized forms, and to access other forms while editing a given form. The system ingests and decomposes insurance-related forms into clauses, applies search tags to the clauses, and stores the clauses and the search tags in a database for rapid searching and retrieval of desired tags for use in creating customized forms.
