Abstract: A composition includes a plurality of processed leguminous straw particles having about 18-21 wt. % of particles on sieve #25 or particles measuring 0.71-1.17 mm and about 18-20 wt. % of particles on sieve #50 or particles measuring 0.3-0.7 mm, based on total weight of the leguminous straw particles, the composition being a mulch composition.

Abstract: Gas permeable devices and methods are disclosed for cell culture, including cell culture devices and methods that contain medium at heights, and certain gas permeable surface area to medium volume ratios. These devices and methods allow improvements in cell culture efficiency and scale up efficiency.

Abstract: A vertical axis wind turbine having a plurality of air foils arranged along the periphery of a rotor and moveable with the wind. The air foils configured to capture wind energy from the front of the wind turbine and upon exit. Wind diverters, interior and exterior to the wind turbine, accelerate air flows and minimize turbulences.

Abstract: A versatile compartmentalized cell culture device, with a selectively permeable membrane separating the compartments, provides many attributes relative to traditional devices. It can be configured for high-density cell culture, co-culture, and sample dialysis while rolling or standing still. It can also be configured for continuous movement of liquid between compartments. The wide combination of attributes not found in other membrane based cell culture and bioprocessing devices includes more cell capacity, more cell secreted product capacity, higher cell and product density, increased medium capacity, minimized use of exogenous growth factors, compatibility with standard cell culture equipment and protocols, increased scale up efficiency, capacity to function when rolling or standing still, capacity for perfusion without the need for pumps, and more efficient sample dialysis.

Abstract: A practice putting kit and training method for practicing the aiming a golf ball, aiming the putter, and keep returning the putter to a square position to the golf ball. The kit includes a laser golf ball that produces a planar, laser beam of light. Printed on the outer surface of the golf ball is a centrally aligned reference line aligned with the laser. The laser is connected to a control switch, an optional timer, and a battery that enables the golfer to selectively control its activation. The golfer practices aiming the reference line at the target line and then uses the laser to verify if aiming was correct. The kit also includes a stand that holds the golf ball in an elevated position behind the golfer. During use, a standard putter and golf ball is placed in front of the golfer and the stand and laser golf ball are positioned behind the golf ball and aimed at the golf ball so that the laser beam illuminates the top of the golf ball and the target line.
