Abstract: A laser protection variable transmission optical device (“LP-VTOD”) includes first and second cells, each capable of changing from a state of higher light transmittance to a state of lower light transmittance. The first cell is characterized by a narrow band absorption having a first peak absorption wavelength and a first FWHM of 175 nm or less, and the second cell is characterized by a narrow band absorption having a second peak absorption wavelength and a second FWHM of 175 nm or less. The first peak absorption wavelength may be the same or different than the second peak absorption wavelength. The LP-VTOD is capable of switching from a clear state to a darkened state having a darkened state transmittance % TDS-P that is equal to or less than 10% for at least one of the first or second peak absorption wavelengths.

Abstract: A health monitoring system is described that permits daily tracking of medical conditions, journaling of information pertaining to treatments of the conditions, and providing a graphical user interface to see overall progress related to the conditions. The monitoring system includes a conditions schema, a journaling schema, and a user schema. The user schema accesses a conditions table generated by the conditions schema and a separate journal table to generate graphical representations.

Abstract: A ride on toy (10) comprising a vehicle body (12) having front and rear wheels (18). A seat (16) is provided on an upper surface of the body (120 on which a child can sit and a cleaning unit (14) is releasably secured to the vehicle body. The cleaning unit (14) is secured to the vehicle body (12) between the front and rear wheels (18) and includes a housing (38) having an internal chamber (46) such that the cleaning unit (14) picks up particulate matter from the floor while the toy (10) is moving and deposits it into the internal chamber (46).

Abstract: The present invention relates to an upper for a footwear article, said upper comprising at least one panel having at least one layer made from a composition comprising a fluorinated thermoplastic polyurethane polymer.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a case for a portable electronic device, made from a composition comprising a fluorinated thermoplastic polyurethane polymer.

Abstract: A package for dispensing a pourable product has a first hollow body member, a second hollow body member, and a pouring spout. The first hollow body member has a first exterior surface and opposite therefrom a first interior surface which defines a first internal volume. The second hollow body member has a second exterior surface, a second interior surface, a flow-regulating passage, and a dispensing passage separate from the flow-regulating passage. The second exterior surface defines a second external volume smaller than the first internal volume. Opposite the second exterior surface, the second hollow interior surface defines a second internal volume. A fastener is formed on the second interior surface. The pouring spout is operatively connected to the dispensing passage.
