Abstract: The invention relates to a proton flow reactor for use in storing and releasing energy. In use, a slurry of storage particles in a liquid electrolyte may pass through a first half cell of the proton flow reactor. When the proton flow reactor is in charge mode, protons are bonded or otherwise attracted to the storage particles to form charged storage particles charged with hydrogen, which can hen be stored and/or transported for later use. When the proton flow reactor is in discharge mode, protons are removed from the charged storage particles to fuel an electrochemical reaction, thereby generating electricity. Alternatively, the proton flow reactor in discharge mode can be configured to generate hydrogen gas directly from the in-flowing charged carbon particles.

Abstract: A method includes receiving and storing, at a server, retail product data related to a retail product offered for sale at a retailer, the retail product data including text data corresponding to a description of the retail product, price data corresponding to a price of the retail product, and image data corresponding to a graphical image of the retail product. The method also includes receiving, at the server, links to content generated by a content-generating user, the content being associated with retail products. The method also includes identifying, at the server, a link from the plurality of links that corresponds to content associated with the retail product offered for sale at the retailer. The method also includes generating, at the server, a web page that displays the product data, including the text data, the price data, and the image data for the retail product offered for sale at the retailer and that displays the identified link.

Abstract: The various technologies presented herein relate to incorporating one or more notches into a radar spectrum, whereby the notches relate to one or more frequencies for which no radar transmission is to occur. An instantaneous frequency is monitored and if the frequency is determined to be of a restricted frequency, then a radar signal can be modified. Modification can include replacing the signal with a signal having a different instantaneous amplitude, a different instantaneous phase, etc. The modification can occur in a WFS prior to a DAC, as well as prior to a sin ROM component and/or a cos ROM component. Further, the notch can be dithered to enable formation of a deep notch. The notch can also undergo signal transitioning to enable formation of a deep notch. The restricted frequencies can be stored in a LUT against which an instantaneous frequency can be compared.

Abstract: Provided are a system and method for vehicle positioning. The system includes a control module, at least one sensor arranged and disposed to measure operational parameter and provide the operational parameters to the control module, and a ground transport vehicle in communication with the control module. The ground transport vehicle is arranged and disposed for coupling with an aircraft and the control module is arranged and disposed to direct at least one of ground handling of the aircraft and storage of the aircraft. The method includes providing a system, coupling a ground transport vehicle to an aircraft, communicating operational parameters from at least one sensor to a control module, defining an operational area for the aircraft, setting a ground transportation route with the control module based upon the operational parameters from the at least one sensor, and moving the aircraft along the ground transportation route with the ground transport vehicle.

Abstract: A method includes receiving and storing, at a server, a project listing associated with a project that includes at least one shopping-related activity and providing access to the project listing to users. The method also includes receiving, at the server, a request for participation in the project from a user and receiving, at the server, approval for an approved user to participate in the project, based on the request. The method also includes receiving, at the server, a link to content generated by the approved user, the content being associated with the approved user's performance of the at least one shopping-related activity and the content including at least one of text content, image content, and video content. The method also includes providing, at the server, access to the link to the users.

Abstract: The present invention features quinolones, tetrahydroquinolines, and related compounds that inhibit nitric oxide synthase (NOS), particularly those that selectively inhibit neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS) in preference to other NOS isoforms. The NOS inhibitors of the invention, alone or in combination with other pharmaceutically active agents, can be used for treating or preventing various medical conditions.

Abstract: A device that can be used as a case or a stand for a portable computer is disclosed. The device comprising a generally rectangular sheet having first to fifth interconnected panels (16, 18, 20, 22, 24) disposed along a long axis (A-A), the panels being interconnected by elements that allow them to fold with respect to one another about respective fold axes. The fifth panel has a support surface upon which a computer can be supported, the third and the forth panels are, together, in the direction of the long axis of approximately the same length as the fifth panel, and the first panel is of approximately the same dimension as the fifth panel. The first panel and the fifth panel carry fasteners (34, 36) such that a free edge region of the fifth panel can be connected to a face of the first panel.
