Abstract: A method of applying a magnetic coating to a surface including steps of releasably attaching a framing member to a surface, the framing member defining at least one opening; applying a magnetic coating to the surface within said opening; allowing the magnetic coating to dry; and removing the framing member from the surface, such that the magnetic coating remains fixed to the surface. The framing member is removed from the surface, and additional magnetic coating is applied to the surface to fill in gaps left from removing the framing member.

Abstract: A novel chocolate product for use in delivering medicaments and/or nutrients to animals, particularly humans, specially formulated so that the craving for such product by animals, particularly humans, is significantly greater than the craving for chocolate conventionally used in pharmaceutical compositions and the concentration, optimization, and the addition of endogenous and exogenous ingredients to increase such craving as well as to treat specific indications. The chocolate product contains: from about 0.

Abstract: A method of preventing charged particles from passing through holes in a barrier material which involves surface treating a barrier material with an ionic surfactant to impart a charge to the barrier material. In a preferred embodiment, prophylactics such as condoms and surgical gloves can be treated with an anionic surfactant. Tests have confirmed that such surface treated articles can repel virus particles such as human immunodeficiency (HIV) virus, hepatitis B virus and herpes simplex virus (HSV). Ionic surfactant treated articles include prophylactics such as condoms and diaphragms, gloves, including surgical gloves, surgical masks, respiratory masks and filters, filters, including membrane, and wound dressings, including bandages.

Abstract: Apparatus for conducting measurements of displacement, deflection, tilting, nd/or rotation of structures such as floodwalls, retaining walls, dam piers, buildings, embankments and the like is disclosed. The apparatus of this invention has the capability of simultaneously making measurements in two planes, parallel and perpendicular, with respect to an axis or other predetermined reference. Further, the apparatus of this invention includes means for determining the azimuthal bearing of the apparatus relative to the axis or other predetermined reference when the aforementioned measurements are conducted. The apparatus of this invention includes a measuring unit having a housing that houses first and second servo-accelerometers; first, second and third amplifiers; and a rotational variable differential transformer. The amplifiers are electrically coupled to a meter by means of a cable having electrical conductors.
