Abstract: In some examples, a fluid ejection die includes a plurality of nozzles arranged in a plurality of nozzle columns, the plurality of nozzle columns distributed across a width of the fluid ejection die in a staggered manner, wherein nozzles of each respective nozzle column of the plurality of nozzle columns are spaced apart along a length of the fluid ejection die, wherein the plurality of nozzle columns includes a first pair of neighboring nozzle columns that are spaced by a first distance across the width. The plurality of nozzle columns includes a second pair of neighboring nozzle columns that are spaced by a second distance across the width, the second distance being larger than the first distance.

Abstract: An axial flux motor incorporates a rotor having a plurality of pockets receiving magnet assemblies. A retention device is engaged from an inactive surface of at least one magnet assembly to one or more structural elements surrounding an associate one of the plurality of pockets in the rotor.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method executed by at least one processor includes steps of communicating over a computer network a plurality of inputs to a pension risk transfer pricing service, the plurality of inputs including pension plan census data, applying by the pension risk transfer pricing service a computer-implemented pension risk transfer model for generating pension risk transfer pricing, and providing through the pension risk transfer pricing service a user interface for interacting with a user by communicating the pension risk transfer pricing and investments to the user and the user interface configured such that the user is able to strike the pension risk transfer at the pension risk transfer pricing.

Abstract: A process for treating a gas stream, such as natural gas, comprising a process design that prevents the formation of undesired sulfur and sulfates from the reaction of oxygen and sulfur is disclosed. After water is removed from the gas stream, a portion of the dried gas stream is sent through a cooled adsorbent bed that has a first layer to remove sulfur compounds and then a layer to remove oxygen. There may be additional layers of adsorbent to remove other contaminants. The gas stream that is then heated to regenerate an adsorbent bed no longer contains sulfur and oxygen and undesirable reactions of sulfur and oxygen are avoided.

Abstract: Nested toy figures are provided depicting the likeness of sports personalities or other celebrities. A method of manufacture is provided for forming the nested toy figures using moisture resistant material, pressed wood and resin, or injection molded plastic. Raised features such as arms, hands, collars, sports equipment or other features are secured to the exterior surfaces of the nested toy figures. Moisture resistant images are printed and applied to provide substantially identical images of faces or other individualistic features in mass production.

Abstract: A cargo carrier designed to be mounted adjacent to and onto a vehicle by attaching it to the vehicle's trailer hitch having a crossbar and a receiver. The cargo carrier has a substantially S-shaped tongue having a male bracket that couples with the receiver on the trailer hitch, thereby mounting the cargo carrier onto the vehicle. The male bracket is held in the receiver by means of a pin. An elongated frame, having a fixed arm and a swing-out arm which is constructed of essentially parallel beams and connected to said fixed arm by a pivot hinge, is integral with and is supported by said tongue. The fixed arm is reinforced by frame support members connecting said arm with the tongue. Load support brackets are carried on the swing-out arm and serve to mount a cargo holder device thereupon, the cargo holder device being a box with a lid, an open bin, or any other desired device.
