Abstract: A jewelry product comprising an ornamental element having a front side, a rear side, a first opening defined in the ornamental element between the front side and the rear side, a second opening defined in the ornamental element between the front side and the rear side, a support structure configured to enable a user to wear the ornamental element, the support structure appearing to extend away from the rear side from the first and second openings, and a connecting piece that extends along the front side from the first opening to the second opening and appearing to be connected to the support structure.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed that provide smart alerts to users, e.g., alerts to users about diabetic states that are only provided when it makes sense to do so, e.g., when the system can predict or estimate that the user is not already cognitively aware of their current condition, e.g., particularly where the current condition is a diabetic state warranting attention. In this way, the alert or alarm is personalized and made particularly effective for that user. Such systems and methods still alert the user when action is necessary, e.g., a bolus or temporary basal rate change, or provide a response to a missed bolus or a need for correction, but do not alert when action is unnecessary, e.g., if the user is already estimated or predicted to be cognitively aware of the diabetic state warranting attention, or if corrective action was already taken.

Abstract: The present invention provides an improved process for recovering butanol from a mixture comprising water, methanol, propanol, butanol and optionally other organic compounds. More particularly, the invention relates to a process for recovering butanol as an essentially pure product from a mixture comprising water, methanol, propanol, butanol and other organic compounds.

Abstract: In an example, a method for secure publication of content is described. The method may include encrypting content with a media key. The method may also include providing the encrypted content to a client device associated with a private key and a public key. The private key may be stored at the client device. The method may also include encrypting the media key with the public key. The method may also include providing the encrypted media key to the client device.

Abstract: In an embodiment, a method for making copies of a master disc is described. The method includes receiving a master disc. The method also includes capturing an image of a label on a first side of the master disc. The method also includes generating a data image of data stored on the master disc. The method also includes making one or more copies of the master disc using one or more blank discs. Making the one or more copies includes recording the data image onto a data side of each of the one or more blank discs and printing the image of the label on an opposing side of each of the one or more blank discs.

Abstract: A network includes a plurality of wirelessly interconnected self-organizing network (SON) devices for relaying signals in a self-organizing network and a field device for originating output signals. The sensor is configured to transmit the output signals to at least one of the SON devices, and the SON devices do not originate signals but only relay signals originated externally. At least one of the SON devices is self-powered by harvesting energy from an adjacent energy source.

Abstract: A convertible box blade uses hydraulic or manual power to open from the standard box plow into an open V configuration to fill in ditches with a single pass or build terraces or levees. Possible options installed on the V blade include ripper blades to rip up the soil to move or grade, or a landscape rake mounted behind the blade used for finish work.

Abstract: A diaphragm diagnostic system for use in an industrial field device has a diaphragm and a diagnostic feature. The diaphragm is configured to couple the field device to a process fluid and has a plurality of layers. A first layer of the plurality of layers is exposed to process fluid of an industrial process. A diagnostic feature is coupled to the diaphragm to monitor an electrical parameter of the diaphragm and responsively infer an operative state of the diaphragm based on a change in the monitored electrical parameter.
