Abstract: The technology presented here reduces the computational cost in processor cycles, memory, disk space and/or bandwidth by not requiring mining to obtain the system crypto currency. Further, the technology presented here uses a distributed identity ledger to verify transactions, thus avoiding the need to verify an 80 GB block chain. In addition, the entries on the identity ledger can expire after a certain period of time, thus automatically reducing the size of the identity ledger.

Abstract: An electrical cable having a holding member arranged longitudinally along the cable for an optic fiber, which can be used for temperature sensing and/or communications. The holding member can replace one or more strands of the cable, be placed inside an interstice of the cable, be placed in between various layers of the cable, or placed in the jacket of the cable. The cable can be produced through the addition of a planetary strander device to a wire assembly apparatus.

Abstract: Bacteria, fungi, or yeast are treated in their habitat with lethal concentrations of limonen-10-ol.

Abstract: A method of killing yeast or fungi which comprises treating the yeast or fungi with a toxic amount of dihydrocarveol.

Abstract: A method of killing yeast or fungi which comprises treating the yeast or fungi with a toxic amount of dihydrocarvone.

Abstract: A method of killing yeast and fungi which comprises treating the yeast and fungi with a toxic amount of carveol.

Abstract: A method for controlling a system for presenting to an audience images on a primary display or displays that incorporates a auxiliary monitor. The auxiliary monitor may be used in a variety of ways to assist in the presentation of information on the primary display. The preferred embodiment of the present invention contains a hand-held display control including an array of key switches providing control of the main monitor and an auxiliary monitor allowing the operator to view any one of several options. These options include a duplicate of the image being displayed on the main monitor, the next image to be displayed on the main monitor, any other image available from the image generator, a list of the images available from the image generator, and notes associated with each image or with the entire presentation.

Abstract: MENTH-1-EN-9-OL kills bacteria, yeasts, and fungi by lysing the cell membrane of the organism.

Abstract: A process for producing a stable, bactericidal and fungicidal composition which consists essentially of bubbling air or oxygen into limonene, to produce an oxidized limonene having a rapid bactericidal activity as evidenced by the capability of killing at least 99.99% of the bacteria in a suitable culture medium inoculated with 10.sup.6 colony forming units of Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 25923 per ml.

Abstract: A broad spectrum bactericide, which is bactericidal to bacteria and yeasts in bactericidal concentrations, is perillyl alcohol. Also a method of killing bacteria includes the treatment of bacteria with bactericidal concentrations of perillyl alcohol. The bacteria are selected from a goup consisting of Staphylococcus, Billus, Enterobacteriaceae, Streptococcus, Xanthomonas, and Mycobacteria. Also yeasts may be killed by treatment thereof with bactericidal concentrations of perillyl alcohol.

Abstract: A high resolution, multicolor frame buffer memory and sequential read/write logic provides high speed access and reduced memory requirement for a scanning display. Frame buffer memory bits are assigned corresponding display location color values according to a selected pattern and color distribution scheme. Current display locations and neighboring display locations, including subsequent and/or preceding display lines, are examined to assemble color information for each current display location, such that a plurality of color values are combined for each display location, even though the frame buffer memory only stores one color value for each display location.
