Abstract: Embodiments are directed towards a use of a supported biphenylphenol polymerization catalyst to make a polymer via a slurry-phase polymerization process, where the supported biphenylphenol polymerization catalyst is made from a biphenylphenol polymerization precatalyst of Formula I.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to opioid sparing compositions and use of the same for reducing opioid use. Such compositions and methods method may be used for reducing pain or reducing opioid use or increasing mobility in subjects using an opioid.

Abstract: A method of treating lower back pain in a subject in need thereof, the method comprising administering to the subject a composition comprising mesenchymal lineage precursor or stem cells (MLPSCs), wherein the lower back pain is associated with an intervertebral disc that has a disc height that is not substantially reduced compared to that of an adjacent healthy disc in the subject.

Abstract: The current invention is a driving training tool. The training tool is a combination of a tachometer and speedometer with a stick transmission shifter and pedals. The tachometer and speedometer reflect the input from the pedals and shifter. This can be used by driving schools and learners to practice shifting skills, such as up-shifting, down-shifting, or double-clutching. Each part of the tool can detach for easy storage and folding. The training tool is made of plastic, making it light weight and easy to transport.

Abstract: A seal useful in sealing slide out rooms used in recreational vehicles. The seal may be used singularly or in pairs to straddle a wall through which the opening is located. A bulb is attached to the base in a cantilevered manner over the base. The bulb has an outer arcuate portion that is integrally joined to opposing sidewall portions. The sidewall portions extend into an inner wall that defines an enclosed space within the bulb portion. The bulb portion may also have a protrusion that can touch the base. A wiper extends from the base substantially co-linearly to the base and opposite the offsetting member. A locating leg extending from the base is movable between a first position and a second position. The first position has the locating leg perpendicular to the base and the second position places the locating leg parallel to the base.

Abstract: A method for analyzing a droplet fraction of an oil mist sample of a gas turbine is provided. A collecting device collects the oil mist sample, wherein the collecting device is arranged within a breather pipe which is coupled to the gas turbine such that oil mist is flowing through the breather pipe. The droplet fraction is separated from a gaseous fraction of the oil mist sample by a filter device, wherein the filter device is soaked with the droplet fraction, the droplet fraction is extracted from the filter device by using a tetrachloroethylene solvent. A composition of the droplet fraction is analyzed by a spectrometer.

Abstract: An analyzing arrangement for analyzing a composition of a fluid, such as oil mist of an engine, e.g. a gas turbine is provided. The analyzing arrangement includes a breather pipe coupleable to the gas turbine such that at least a part of the fluid is flowing through the breather pipe, a first collecting device for collecting a first sample of the fluid, wherein the first collecting device is configured for providing a first composition analysis of the first sample and a second collecting device for collecting a second sample of the fluid, wherein the second collecting device is configured for providing a second composition analysis of the second sample. The first collecting device and the second collecting device are arranged inside the breather pipe such that the first collecting device and the second collecting device are exposed to a common flow characteristic of the fluid inside the breather pipe.

Abstract: Described herein are techniques for receiving, by a telecommunication service provider, used telecommunication devices from a plurality of subscribers of the telecommunication service provider. The used telecommunication devices may each have been purchased with an installment plan on which a balance is owed, and different balances may be owed on different ones of the used telecommunication devices. In exchange for the used telecommunication devices, the telecommunication service provider may pay off up to at least part of each of the balances. Further, prior to paying off the balances, the telecommunication service provider may obtain identifiers for the used telecommunication devices and verify that the obtained identifier for each used telecommunication device matches an identifier that is associated with one of the subscribers and is stored in a data store of the telecommunication service provider.
