Abstract: The present invention is a device and method for teaching note locations, fretboard patterns, scales, chords, and songs on the fingerboard of a fretted stringed instrument (“fretboard”), such as an electric or acoustic guitar, bass guitar, or other fretted instrument. The invention comprises a set of affixable fretboard strips (“strips”) that adhere to the surface of the stringed instrument, using a mild adhesive or other means of attachment, so as not to damage the instrument, and a number of electronic illuminable markings, such as LED lights, which indicate musical notes and concepts. Once applied to an instrument, an external controller illuminates the electronic illuminable markings in sequence in order to communicate the note positions of notes, scales, chords, playable patterns and songs in order to teach the same to would be students.

Abstract: The present invention is a device and method for teaching note locations, fretboard patterns, scales, and chords on the fingerboard of a fretted stringed instrument (“fretboard”), such as an electric or acoustic guitar. The invention comprises a set of independently affixable fretboard adhesive labels (“stickers”) that adhere to the surface of the stringed instrument, using a mild adhesive, so as not to damage the instrument, and a number of markings, which indicate musical indicia. The device is applied to the instrument by slipping the various individual stickers between the corresponding frets and strings of the stringed instrument and affixing the stickers directly to the fretboard.

Abstract: A method, composition, and kit for topical application of a composition to a male penis to delay premature ejaculation during intercourse without adversely affecting response in a female partner are disclosed. The method includes applying to the penis a topical composition immediately prior to intercourse. The composition includes an effective amount of a vasodilator agent and a desensitizing agent such as an acetyl dipeptide-1 cetyl ester.

Abstract: A topical composition which enhances sexual responsiveness of a mammal is disclosed. An effective dosage of a peripheral vasodilator, an absorption enhancer and, optionally, a vasoconstrictor and an alpha receptor blocker are combined with a pharmaceutically-acceptable topical vehicle to produce the composition. The compositions are applied topically to the penis or labia majora and minora pudenda to enhance erection or vasocongestion.

Abstract: A variable absorptive/reflective high power attenuator for attenuating microwave signals in a communication system is formed from a circulator connected to a section transmission line such as a waveguide, having at least one adjustable tuning element connected thereto. The transmission line itself is terminated with a microwave energy absorbing load. A signal injected into the circulator is partially reflected by the tuning element(s), and partially absorbed in the load. The reflected portion is routed to an output port of the circulator. The non-reflected portion is dissipated as heat by the load. The amount of output of signal attenuation is selectively controlled by the location and penetration of the tuning elements. In another embodiment, a latching type circulator is utilized to allow selective switching of the attenuation level insitu. More than one such switching type attenuator can be cascade connected to form a single customizable and variable attenuator design.
