Abstract: An apparatus for rendering safe unexploded military ordnance items found on land by use of a portable apparatus employing entrainment waterjet technology. The portable apparatus includes a tool package containing a plurality of tools designed for accessing the interior of a unexploded ordnance item. The interior of the ordnance item is accessed, and its internal contents, which it typically an energetic material is washed-out and recovered.

Abstract: A kit for discharging electrons from a human comprises at least two electrically conductive electrodes. The electrodes are adapted for creating an electrical connection with skin of the human. There is an electrically conductive pad with electrically conductive pad wires, one for each electrode for connection to the respective electrode to the pad. Electrically conductive grounding wire is provided for electrically grounding the pad. The kit can comprise electrically conductive gel for use with the electrodes to enhance electrically conductivity. The kit is designed, when assembled and used to treat a human, for withdrawing excess electrons from the human for improved health.

Abstract: A kit for discharging electrons from a mammal such as human comprise at least two electrically conductive acupuncture needles. The needles are adapted for creating an electrical connection with subcutaneous tissue of the mammal. There is an electrically conductive pad with electrically conductive pad wires, one for each needle for connection to the respective needle to the pad. Electrically conductive grounding wire is provided for electrically grounding the pad. Helical wires for placement around the acupuncture needles can be used to enhance electrically conductivity. The kit is designed, when assembled and used to treat a mammal, for withdrawing excess electrons from the mammals for improved health.

Abstract: The use of abrasive entrainment waterjet technology to cut improvised hazardous devices, such as improvised explosive devices (IEDs), located above or below ground. Abrasive is conducted to an entrainment abrasive waterjet cutting head under the control of an abrasive feed and metering system that monitors the flow rate of abrasive.

Abstract: The use of abrasive entrainment waterjet technology to cut objects located at the bottom of a body of water. Abrasive is conducted to an abrasive waterjet cutting head under the control of an abrasive feed and metering system that monitors the differential pressure between the cutting head and reservoir of abrasive material and maintains the pressure at the abrasive reservoir greater than the pressure hydrostatic pressure at the cutting head.

Abstract: A method of forming a fishing lure resembling a snake such that the snake exhibits incredible lifelike action when pulled from a head of the lure through the water is disclosed. The method of forming the fishing lure may include forming the lure from a mold having at least one cavity forming a tube with a longitudinal axis curved in a spiral shape. When the lure is pulled from the mold after curing, the lure will extend generally along a linear longitudinal axis. However, because the snake lure was formed in a spiral shape, the lure has a much greater lifelike action than conventional artificial snakes that are formed with a linear cavity in a mold, such as within a mold having a linear, such as straight, longitudinal axis.

Abstract: A fishing lure having an internal cavity for containing a hook and a weight attached to the hook such that the weight is coupled to the hook closer to a throat of the hook than to a line receiving portion of the hook. The combined hook and weight resist being pulled through a shank containing region of lure. The weight may be positioned in a midsection of the lure enabling the lure to maintain a relatively level attitude in the water while being pulled through the water.

Abstract: A two stage conversion process for converting biomass to a syngas, wherein the first stage is a gasification stage and the second stage is a combustion stage.

Abstract: A process for recovering the energetic component from plastic bonded explosives. The process uses high velocity kinetic energy in the form of gases, liquids, or solids, alone or in combination, to cause the structural failure of the adhesive bonding between the polymer matrix and energetic component for the purpose of providing adequate loci for the solvation of the energetic component by appropriate solvents.
