Abstract: A shower sandal with integrated foot cleaners, massagers, and exfoliators includes a sole, a medial sidewall, a lateral sidewall, a bridge, and a plurality of bristles. The sole that rest underneath the user's foot includes a forefoot section, a midfoot section, and a hindfoot section. The medial sidewall and the lateral sidewall are oppositely positioned of each other across the hindfoot section. The medial sidewall is terminally connected onto the hindfoot section. The lateral sidewall is terminally connected onto the hindfoot section. The bridge is positioned across the forefoot section and terminally connected to the forefoot section. The plurality of bristles is adjacently connected to the sole, the medial sidewall, the lateral sidewall, and the bridge so that the plurality of bristles can clean, massage, and exfoliate the user's foot.

Abstract: A motorized air register, air diffuser or vent for HVAC systems in commercial and residential applications comprises a supporting frame abutting a floor, wall or ceiling and a second depending frame for enclosing a damper. The damper is motor driven from a first fully open position to a second fully closed position. The damper can be controlled remotely from a wall consol or in accordance with thermostat logic.

Abstract: A customized and configurable analysis system is disclosed for analyzing data captured from a wide variety of different sources, such as an asset management application. Regardless of the particular embodiment, the analysis system provides users with the ability to modify and customize the underlying data design to enhance the analytical functionality of the analysis system. The modification of the data design occurs through the use of various templates that are part of the user interface for the analysis system. Thus, persons without specialized database and data architect expertise can modify underlying data design in a timely and inexpensive manner.

Abstract: A traffic light signal monitoring system and method that enables traffic enforcement personnel to monitor the traffic moving through an intersection while positioned at a distant or remote location from the intersection where they would otherwise not be able to see the color of the traffic light signal. The system includes a distribution switch mounted in an existing traffic signal controller cabinet and electrically connected to the traffic light control circuits. The distribution switch is coupled to a radio transmitter. Connected to the transmitter is a tone generator that generates a tone when the amber light signal is activated. During use, traffic enforcement personnel positioned near the intersection are able to watch traffic travel through the intersection without looking directly at the lights activated on the traffic light.

Abstract: A thermite composition for pyrotechnics having high heat transfer charactistics comprising a strongly reducible metal oxide, a thermally decomposable heat transfer agent consisting of Cu2O, and a strong reducing agent. It is desirable that the stoichiometerics and mechanics of the thermite reaction is such that there is a substantial excess of oxygen. Also, other ingredients may be added to the composition such as gas generating compounds, binders, diluents and supplemental oxidizing agents.
