Abstract: A portable outdoor game that may include a ramp, a target, and one or more projectiles. The ramp may include an elongated runner and an elevation structure. The elevation structure may be positioned at one end of the runner and lift that end of the runner from a playing surface, creating an angled incline in the runner relative to the playing surface. Projectiles may roll or slide across the runner in the direction of the elevation structure. The projectiles may become airborne after traveling over the elevation structure and land within or near the target.

Abstract: A process control system software security architecture, that is more effective at preventing zero-day or other types of malware attacks, implements the use of “least privileges” when executing the applications and services run within a computer device. The least privileges based architecture separates “service” processes from desktop applications that run on behalf of a logged-on user by partitioning the global namespace of the software system into service namespaces and logged-on user namespaces, and by strictly controlling communications between the applications and services in these different namespaces using interprocess communications. Moreover, the security architecture uses custom accounts to assure that each service process has the least set of privileges that are needed for implementing its function regardless of the privileges associated with the calling application or user.

Abstract: An aircraft store ejector systems and subsystems thereof. Embodiments can include a two-reservoir re-pressurization system wherein a remote reservoir is used to maintain desired pressure in a local ejector reservoir. The system can include a release valve having a vent valve and valve piston. The release valve can control release of pressurized gas to a pitch control valve. The pitch control valve can be configured to distribute the pressurized gas between two or more ejector piston assemblies. One or more of the ejector piston assemblies can include multiple concentric piston stages and piston chambers, the piston chambers configured to contain a volume of gas. The ejector piston assemblies can be configured to compress the volume of gas within the piston chambers as the piston stages are extended out from the aircraft. Such compression can provide a return force to the piston stages.

Abstract: According to various embodiments, a cable and termination system includes a cable, a liquidtight conduit at least partially surrounding the cable, and a termination. The cable includes a cable core comprising three insulated phase conductors, three ground conductors, and filler interspersed within the cable core to force the ground connectors into symmetrical, geometric location with a corresponding phase conductor and a second phase conductor, and a cable wrap applied over the cable core. The termination includes a first connector, a second, reverse-threaded connector including an exterior metal body and a male metal body coupled with a collet sleeve. Various embodiments of the first connector are also described.

Abstract: A comprehensive addiction treatment method with a medication delivery system of subcutaneous implant micro-pellets in a horizontal orientation parallel to Langer lines in the horizontal plane surrounding the upper hips and lower back in patients, which may include a method of identification at an advanced video communication system through facial recognition, voice recognition and/or a recognition of an RFID microchip implanted in a patient. The identification will be transmitted over the Internet to a database at a secure server to initiate a computer program to stream video content, computer generated communication and/or a live video to be transmitted to an audio-visual system that may be capable of displaying a life-size video image of a live caregiver or a computer generated avatar of a caregiver within a three dimensional setting for real time two-way communication with apparent eye contact.

Abstract: This disclosure provides a method of preventing, alleviating or treating a condition (i.e., neutropenia) in a subject in need thereof, the condition characterized by compromised white blood cell production in the subject. The method includes administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of a protein complex on the same day as a chemotherapy regimen, wherein the protein complex is a modified human granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (hG-CSF) covalently linked to an immunoglobulin Fc region via a non-peptidyl polymer. The non-peptidyl polymer is site-specifically linked to an N-terminus of the immunoglobulin Fc region, and the modified hG-CSF comprises substitutions in at least one of Cys17 and Pro65.
