Abstract: A method of treating and preventing a neurological disorder, such as Alzheimer's disease, in a subject in need thereof by positioning an electromagnetic field emitting source proximal to the subject and exposing the subject to an electromagnetic field having a predetermined frequency (preferably ?300-3,000 MHz) for a predetermined absorption period (preferably greater than ?3 days). Each individual treatment (comprising exposure to the predetermined frequency for the predetermined absorption period) is continued at a predetermined schedule for a predetermined treatment period. The EMF can have a specific absorption rate up to about 8 W/kg. The methodology enhances cognition in the subject and/or treats/prevents the underlying neurological disorder or a symptom thereof.

The circuit emits one of a plurality of responses by sending electrical current selectively through the emitter(s) and/or other feedback devices based upon which of the plurality of incoming Identification Friend or Foe (IFF) and/or munitions-targeting signals is detected by the means for processing.

Abstract: A non-aqueous photocurable composition contains dispersed carbon-coated metal particles in an amount of at least 10 weight %, and the dispersed carbon-coated metal particles have a median diameter of less than 0.6 ?m. These particles are dispersed with a particle dispersing agent that has a weight average molecular weight (Mw) of at least 2,000 and up to and including 100,000 and comprises nitrogen-containing units. Such compositions include an organic diluent as well as suitable photocurable components that can be used for example in acid-catalyzed or free radical chemistries. When the non-aqueous photocurable composition contains up to and including 25 weight % of the dispersed carbon-coated metal particles, it exhibits no visual settling when subjected to a settling test of at least 24 hours at 20° C. The non-aqueous photocurable compositions can be used to provide photocured metallic patterns for various devices that have a touch screen display.

Abstract: Systems and methods for verifying human users through cognitive processes that computers cannot imitate are described herein.
