Abstract: An embodiment method can form an oriented strand board panel. A lay-up has a first surface layer, a second surface layer and a core between the first surface layer and the second surface layer. The first surface layer comprises wood strands with a binding resin that comprises phenolic resin without comprising a pMDI resin and the second surface layer is comprising wood strands with a binding resin that comprises pMDI resin without comprising any phenolic resin. The lay-up is located in a press that includes a first platen facing the first surface layer and a second platen facing the second surface layer. The first surface layer contacts the first platen and the second surface layer contacts a screen. The lay-up is pressed and consolidated to form a consolidated panel having a smooth outer surface of the first surface layer and a rough outer surface of the second surface layer.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method, a computer system and a computer program product manage a medical treatment of a care recipient. The method includes obtaining a treatment record for the care recipient from a server. The method also includes capturing real-time biometric data of the care recipient using a plurality of sensors. The method further includes determining a severity level of the adverse event by comparing the real-time biometric data with the treatment record in response to detecting an adverse event in the real-time biometric data. In addition, the method includes generating a recommendation for an alternative treatment in response to the severity level being above a threshold. Lastly, the method includes transmitting a notification comprising the recommendation to a treatment provider.

Abstract: A collaborative diplomacy mechanics system for an online game is described. A player selects an ally to be engaged in a combat mode of an online social game against an enemy. The profile of the selected ally is retrieved. An ally power up weapon is generated based on the profile of the selected ally. The ally power up weapon is applied against a combat unit of an enemy of a player in the combat mode. The ally power up weapon can also be applied on a combat unit of the player in the combat mode.

Abstract: An igniter (09) includes an elongated tubular housing (10) with a polygonal top (14) having a central aperture (16) defined therein, communicating into a central chamber (20) along a longitudinal axis to an end at a base (18). A terminal (13a) projects from the polygonal top (14). A channel (11a) along a longitudinal axis is formed within the housing (10) in which is mounted an insulator (15). At least a portion of the insulator (15) may extend from the base (18). An electrode (13) connected to the terminal (13a) or (13b) is embedded within the insulator (15), to an end in the base (18). Prongs (19) extend from the electrode (13) towards the outer periphery of the housing (10) or towards the central chamber (20). The prongs (19) end in proximity to the outer housing wall (11), or the inner housing wall (12). The prongs (19) may be one or more projections and have sharp edges for multiple and increased spark presentations.

Abstract: An elevator system (20) includes a sensor (30, 36) for detecting the presence of an individual within a hoistway (24). A controller (32) prevents movement of an elevator car (22) whenever an individual is in the hoistway (24). A pit override device (34) provides an override signal to the controller (32) permitting movement of the elevator car (22) if someone is in a pit (26). A car top override device (38) selectively provides an override signal to the controller (32) permitting movement of the car. A disclosed example includes controlling at least one light (40) within the hoistway (24) in conjunction with movement or attempted movement of the elevator car (22).
