Abstract: Described herein are optical filters that provide regulation and/or enhancement of chromatic and luminous aspects of the color appearance of light to human vision, and methods for designing and making the same. The filters have applications in ophthalmics, e.g., in prescription and nonprescription lenses.

Abstract: A method and system for receiving payment for postage by a delivery system operator from a customer is provided. The method includes receiving payment from the customer for a first postage value; receiving the parcel for delivery, the parcel including a machine-readable postage indicia indicating the amount of the received payment; determining parcel attributes; calculating a determined postage value for the parcel based on the determined parcel attributes; determining the first postage value from the indicia; and transmitting a postage payment adjustment amount based on a comparison between the first postage value and the determined postage value.

Abstract: A lattice forming machine is disclosed for forming lattice from first and second lattice sections (12, 14) which are joined together by a pin (20) having first and second pin sections (28, 30) and a mid-section (22). The machine includes an indexing mechanism (66) for indexing a lattice section passed a pin insertion mechanism (90) for inserting the pins into one of the lattice sections. A jig (160) is provided for receiving the lattice sections with the pins, and for enabling second lattice sections to be loaded onto the lattice sections with the pins, and a roller assembly (170) is provided for receiving the jig so as to cause the lattice sections to be pressed together to force the pins into the second lattice sections to form the lattice.
