Abstract: A system and method is provided for using a model train module to control at least one feature of the model train and receive information on the model train, where individual model train commands are transmitted simultaneously using different protocols (e.g., TMCC, Bluetooth, RF, etc.), thereby allowing the user to control different model trains having different communication protocols. In a preferred embodiment, identifying information is also acquired from the model train and provided to the remote control, thereby allowing the remote control to provide identifying information to the user (e.g., train name, train number, status of virtual consumables, etc.) and a train-specific user interface (e.g., one that includes controls and/or identifying information for a specific type of train).

Abstract: An apparatus for treating fluid with ultraviolet radiation includes a head portion with an inlet conduit that is configured to convey the fluid away from an inlet along a length direction of the inlet conduit and an outlet conduit that is configured to convey the fluid along a length direction of the outlet conduit. The length direction of the inlet conduit and the length direction of the outlet conduit are collinear. A reactor vessel is coupled to the head portion. An LED light source is configured to emit ultraviolet radiation into the inner vessel, and at least a portion of the LED light source is immersed in fluid flowing toward the outlet conduit so that the fluid cools the LED light source. An adapter unit removably attaches reactor vessel and the head portion.

Abstract: A spiral wound membrane module is suitable for use with high temperature water that may also have a high pH, for example steam injection produced water. The module uses a membrane with a polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) backing material. The feed spacer of the module may be made from polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) or ethylene chlorotrifluoroethylene (ECTFE). The permeate carrier may be made of a woven nylon (i.e. nylon 6, 6) fabric coated with high temperature epoxy. The core tube and anti-telescoping device may be made of polysulfone. In some examples, the module may be used at a temperature of up to 130° C. Optionally, the module may be used at a pH of 9.5 or more. In a filtration method, the module may be operated at a pressure in the range of 150 to 450 psi. The module may be operated at a generally constant pressure.

Abstract: A method for preventing or reducing the risk of perinatal or neonatal morbidity and mortality caused by antenatal inflammation in humans is described. This method is based on the administration of a compound of formula I or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof: to an expectant human mother suffering from antenatal fetal inflammation. The method prevents or reduces the risk of organ damages, including brain, lung and intestinal damages, and sequelae therefrom, in the neonates, as well as the risk of neonatal death.

Abstract: A model train track is provided that includes a plurality of track segments. Each track segment may include a roadbed, a plurality of rails, and a plurality of magnetic devices that are used to physically connect a track segment with an adjacent track segment. In other words, as two track segments move close to one another, the attraction between the magnetic devices on the two segments will not only pull the segments together, but, once connected, will maintain a physical connection therebetween until sufficient force is applied to overcome the magnetic attraction. Each track segment may also include at least one alignment portion, for aligning adjacent track segments during user assembly, and a plurality of contacts (e.g., biased or spring-loaded contacts) providing electrical continuity between adjacent track segments and components thereof (e.g., rails).
