Abstract: In a method of forming a nanopore in a nanometric material, a nanopore nucleation site is formed at a location that is interior to lateral edges of the nanometric material by directing a first energetic beam, selected from the group of ion beam and neutral atom beam, at the interior location for a first time duration that imposes a first beam dose which causes removal of no more than five interior atoms from the interior location to produce at the interior location a nanopore nucleation site having a plurality of edge atoms. A nanopore is then formed at the nanopore nucleation site by directing a second energetic beam, selected from the group consisting of electron beam, ion beam, and neutral atom beam, at the nanopore nucleation site with a beam energy that removes edge atoms at the nanopore nucleation site but does not remove bulk atoms from the nanometric material.

Abstract: A cooking release material includes a layer comprising fluoropolymer. The cooking release material has a major surface having nucleation structures in a density of at least 10 per square inch. The cooking release material can include a reinforcement material, the layer coated over the reinforcement material. The cooking release material can include a second layer forming the major surface.

Abstract: Described herein are tissue grafts derived from the placenta. The grafts are composed of at least one layer of amnion tissue where the epithelium layer has been substantially removed in order to expose the basement layer to host cells. By removing the epithelium layer, cells from the host can more readily interact with the cell-adhesion bio-active factors located onto top and within of the basement membrane. Also described herein are methods for making and using the tissue grafts. The laminin structure of amnion tissue is nearly identical to that of native human tissue such as, for example, oral mucosa tissue. This includes high level of laminin-5, a cell adhesion bio-active factor show to bind gingival epithelia-cells, found throughout upper portions of the basement membrane.

Abstract: In a method of operating an on-demand multiplayer game system, a controller advertises availability of one or more on-demand multiplayer games to a plurality of individuals at a first venue. The controller receives a request from a first individual at the first venue to initiate a multiplayer game and outputs a notification of the initiation of the multiplayer game to one or more display units at the first venue. One or more additional individuals are allowed to join the multiplayer game. The multiplayer game is initiated with the first individual and the one or more additional individuals who joined the multiplayer game as participants.

Abstract: A machine-readable definition of a three-dimensional scene is represented. A list of relationships between elements of the scene is generated, wherein each entry on said list identifies two elements and the nature of a relationship between the two elements. A displayable schematic representation of the scene is created in which elements of the scene are defined by nodes and relationships between the nodes are represented by links. Input data is received in response to displaying the list of relationships that identifies one of the relationships. A portion of the schematic representation is displayed showing the elements related by the relationship identified by the input data.

Abstract: A machine-readable definition of a scene including three dimensional objects is represented. A schematic representation of the scene displays an object in which elements of the object are defined by nodes and relationships between these nodes are represented by links. Several unique relationship types are used to define specific functions applying to a node or between nodes. Selection data is received in response to user input that selects one of the relationship types. Appearance of the displayed links is modified so as to identify occurrences of the selected type to the user. Furthermore, a link may be added to display a relationship type defining a specific function for two or more nodes.

Abstract: A suspension bag for a suspension filing system is described wherein elongate plastic closure bars are used and affixed to upper edges of plastic bags. The closure bars releasably interlock with each other and are separable for a sufficient distance to form a bag opening for the insertion of articles to be stored in the suspension bag. A sufficient bag opening can be achieved by reducing the length of the upper bag portion that is attached to the closure bars or by providing corner cut outs or with the use of gussets. The bags are preferably formed of transparent material though opaque materials could be used.
