Abstract: A cushioned protection device may protect a tailgate of a tow vehicle from damage from a trailer. The cushioned protection device may be made from a polyethylene foam block having an internal cavity sized to fit snugly around a top portion of a crank jack attached to the trailer.

Abstract: In order to measure a fluid flow or flow conditions of a fluid flow through an apparatus, electrodes are provided across which capacitance values are determined. The capacitances are used in conjunction with a predetermined model to determine a revised model for the system. If the modelled to be satisfactory, then the values representative of the flow conditions are output. If it is not, then the model is tuned to reduce the error. A novel arrangement of electrodes is also provided along with apparatus embodying the method. The invention also provides a way of determining fluid properties, for example, density, volume present contained within a vessel or tank whether flowing or stationary.

Abstract: Described herein are compositions including an herbicide, a capsaicinoid, and an acrylic for controlling the direction of growth of plants with rootlets. Also described herein are methods for making and using the compositions.

Abstract: In a peer-to-peer network of peers which are interconnected for sharing content data, the peers store content files of content data in a file structure comprising a plurality of content folders each content folder containing any number of content files of related content data, and a description file containing both unique identification information and descriptive information in XML format describing the content file or files stored in the same content folder. Requesting peers transmit search query messages which specify search criteria for passage through the network. Peers receiving a search query message compare the search criteria with the descriptive information contained in the description files in each of their plurality of content folders and in the event of there being a matching content folder transmit a hit message including the identification information to identify the matching content folder for passage back through the network to the respective requesting peer.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method of prophylaxis, treatment or inhibition of a cannabinoid receptor-associated disease, disorder or condition in a mammalian subject, the method comprising administering to the subject a compound having the structure of formula I or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, acid salt, hydrate or stereoisomer thereof, wherein the cannabinoid receptor-associated disease, disorder or condition is pain or an inflammatory disease, disorder or condition, and wherein formula I is as follows: wherein Rb, Rc, Z, Y and m are defined in the specification.

Abstract: The present invention is an interactive control device that combines both functions of lighting and temperature control in one device. The interactive control device includes a thermometer and has power connections compatible to the line voltage wiring (typically 110-120 VAC) so that it may be connected to the electrical wiring in the same manner as a standard light switch. The interactive control device may also include sensors and/or cameras, or the ability to communicate with external sensors and/or cameras. The interactive control device is further capable of wirelessly communicating with remote devices, such as smart phones and tablets, appliances, alarm systems, sound systems, and locks.

Abstract: The present invention provides substituted imidazoheterocyclic compounds having the structure of formula I Also provided are pharmaceutically acceptable salts, acid salts, hydrates, solvates and stereoisomers of the compounds of formula I. The compounds are useful as modulators of cannabinoid receptors and for the prophylaxis and treatment of cannabinoid receptor-associated diseases and conditions, such as pain, inflammation and pruritis.

Abstract: Modular casket hardware which includes a bracket configured to attach to a casket corner wall surface. The bracket is also configured to be oriented with respect to the casket in a first orientation to attach to the casket wall and a second orientation to attach to the casket corner. A bore in the bracket is configured to receive a casket bar when in the first orientation. Tabs on the bracket are configured to at least partially fit within a portion of the casket bar when the bracket is oriented in the second orientation. A bracket cover could also use other bracket type mechanisms to attach and hold the casket bars to the casket which will support the required weight of a casket at the grave site. Once a bracket and bars are attached, the casket will be able to be shipped without the decorative bracket cover installed. The decorative modular casket bracket cover will be able to be added to the casket at any time.

Abstract: A client device for use in a system having a server, the client device including: a receiving device configured to receive information material from the server, the information material containing a reversible modification providing a visually perceptible disturbing effect having been applied to the information material by using an invertible algorithm which uses values generated from one or more keys, and to receive identifying information that distinguishes the information material from other information material available from the server and condition information which defines a predetermined condition that should be met in order for the reversible modification to be reversed.

Abstract: The present invention provides methods of prevention and treatment of cannabinoid receptor-associated diseases and conditions, wherein the method includes administering a substituted imidazoheterocyclic compounds having the structure of formula I or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, acid salt, hydrate, solvate or stereoisomer of a compound having the structure of formula I. The cannabinoid receptor-associated diseases and conditions preventable or treatable by the methods of the present invention include pain, inflammation and pruritis.
