Abstract: A glass composition includes a base glass portion comprising: 65-75 wt % SiO2; 5-15 wt % CaO; 0-5 wt % MgO; 0-5 wt % K2O; 10-14 wt % Na2O; and 1-5 wt % Al2O3; wherein the glass composition has a ratio of Na2O to Al2O3 is in the range of 9.5-12.5 wt %/wt %.

Abstract: An aqueous ion exchange strengthening method for strengthening a glass container is disclosed that includes a step of exposing a surface of a glass container to an aqueous ion exchange solution that comprises water and an alkali metal salt to coat the surface of the glass container with a coating of the aqueous ion exchange solution. The alkali metal of the alkali metal salt may be potassium, rubidium, caesium, or mixtures thereof. The aqueous ion exchange strengthening process also includes the step of heat treating the glass container in a heated environment having a temperature ranging from 125° C. to 600° C.

Abstract: Systems and methods for facilitating the identification and registration of available Internet domain names in response to user input and/or other external criteria. In embodiments, a domain name platform is provided for interfacing with a user, generating lists of available top level and second level domain combinations, and facilitating registration of those domains. In embodiments, information beyond user input may be considered in generating lists of available domain names. In alternate embodiments, a computer system is disclosed for implementing the system. In further embodiments, machine-usable storage media is disclosed containing instructions for implementing the system.

Abstract: An apparatus for winding layers of wire on a pole of a rotor or stator of a rotary electrical generator or motor comprises a needle mounting member movable substantially axially of the rotor or stator and a needle rotatably mounted on the mounting member and extending transversely thereto. The needle is rotatable about an axis transverse to the direction of movement of the mounting member. The needle has a groove defining an outlet path for the wire to one side of the axis of rotation of the needle.A method of winding layers of wire on a pole of a rotor or stator of a rotary electrical generator or motor comprises the steps of providing a needle having a groove defining an outlet path for wire to be wound in layers, moving the needle over a winding path and causing the needle to rotate at positions in the winding path.
