Abstract: A construction material consisting of a deployment system for a tire retardant substance, suitable for use in a wide variety of applications. This invention is designed to deploy a fire retardant substance in in response to the detection of an uncontrolled fire, thus minimizing or reducing risk of death, serious injury or property damage associated with uncontrolled fires when present in a habitable structure. The invention consists of a construction material which incorporates hinged or folding door(s) or flap(s) which contain a fire retardant substance within the construction material. When an uncontrolled fire is detected, the door(s) or flap(s) open and thus deploy the fire retardant substance onto the area affected by the uncontrolled fire.

Abstract: An aircraft ground safety device that illuminates the blades of a spinning aircraft propeller with bright colored light in order to improve visual awareness of the danger zone created by an otherwise inviable propeller spinning at high RPM. The device consists of lighting fixtures (typically LEDs in the currently envisioned embodiment of the invention) mounted on the propeller blades of an aircraft that display the aircraft propeller as a brightly colored disk of light when the propellers are spinning, as well as an electrical power supply to the aforementioned lighting array, provided by a slip ring connector and powered by the by the electrical system of the aircraft. The lighting array is intended to activate whenever the blades are in motion to further the aim of safety in aviation.

Abstract: A method of inducing cell death or apoptosis in certain (undesirable) cells, such as cancerous cells or pathogenic microorganisms. The method to be described utilizes self-replicating prion-like misfolded isoforms of a cellular protein (which may be specific to a particular type of cell) to specifically target certain undesired cells for destruction.
