Abstract: The technology described herein relates to a design template overlaid on a surrounding series of grid cut lines on the back side of a roll of wrapping paper. Based on juxtaposition within the grid cut lines, the DIY design template cut lines may correspond directly or indirectly to at least a portion of the front side of the wrapping paper decoration. Accordingly, embodiments of the design template may include cut lines for various bow and/or accessory content that, once extracted from the surrounding wrapping paper, may be assembled into a coordinated bow or accessory featuring intentional placement of design content form the front side of the wrapping paper. Additionally, the design template pattern may be repeated along an axis of orientation of the roll of wrapping paper, such that multiple DIY design templates may be repeated across the entire roll wrap bundle.

Abstract: A pill crushing device pulverizes pills and then transfers the pulverized pills out of the device with minimal transfer loss and spillage. The device includes a pill chamber. The pill chamber may form a threaded connection with the storage portion that enables detachment. The pill is pulverized in the pill chamber. A first spoon may retains the pill and carries the pulverized pill out of the chamber along a longitudinal opening of the pill chamber. An optional second spoon detachably attaches to the first spoon to carry supplemental compositions to the pulverized pill.

The storage portion stores the pill and operates the crushing mechanism. The pill is pulverized in the pill chamber. The pill chamber is disposed beneath the storage portion. A first spoon retains the pill and carries the pulverized pill out of the chamber along a longitudinal opening of the pill chamber. An optional second spoon detachably attaches to the first spoon to carry supplemental compositions to the pulverized pill.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a computer-implemented method for use in an electronic design environment. Embodiments may include defining, using at least one processor, a grammar object system including one or more of objects, elements, values and relationships. Embodiments may include generating a technology grammar binary representation, based upon, at least in part, the grammar object system and receiving a technology ASCII representation. Embodiments may further include parsing at least one of the technology grammar binary representation and the technology ASCII representation to generate a technology binary representation and providing the technology binary representation to at least one of a graphical user interface or a database.

Abstract: An anti-leak system for preventing nail polish from leaking from a nail polish bottle featuring a collar that wraps around the shoulder area, the thread area and the cap of the nail polish bottle. Foam lines the inner surface of the collar. The foam fills any gaps that may occur between the thread area and the cap, for example if the cap is not completely closed. The collar can be compressed around the nail polish bottle and secured vie a locking mechanism.

Abstract: A multi-faceted, tier-driven, loyalty-based commerce selector that promotes brand and retailer loyalty is provided. The innovation leverages brand and retailer loyalty in lieu of price comparison shopping as is the focus of most other e-commerce experiences. Brands or retailers can be selected for exclusive shopping, and recommendations can be provided where brands or retailers are yet-unselected. Various interfaces and communications systems can be employed to deliver customized shopping experiences based on selected retailers and user preferences in order to shift from price to relationships as the driver of transactions.

Abstract: A method of removing an oxide layer from a surface of a metallic component, includes: contacting the surface with an alkaline cleaner, followed by contacting the surface with an acidic solution. The method is especially useful for removing oxide layers from the interior of hollow gas turbine engine components. The cleaned surface may be provided with an oxide-resistant coating by a pack aluminide coating process.

Abstract: A grit blasting and alkaline etch surface pretreatment that is applied to a metallic airfoil. The metallic airfoil includes pockets or cavities that have been fabricated into the airfoil to reduce the weight of the airfoil. The pretreatment includes grit blasting the surface of the pockets or cavities, followed by washing the airfoil and treating the airfoil in an alkaline etch bath. After any remaining solution from the bath is neutralized and within twenty-four hours of the end of the pretreatment, primer is applied to the surface of the pockets or cavities. After the primer is applied to the surface of the pockets, a lightweight resin is injected into the pockets and bonds to the primer forming a mechanical bond with good fracture toughness at elevated temperatures.
