Abstract: The present disclosure discloses a method for making an ice surface of an ice rink and an ice rink including the ice surface. In the method, a salt solution is applied to an ice surface. The salt solution contains anions. A concentration of the anions is in a range from about 0.63 mmol/L to about 10 mmol/L. The anions in the salt solution are selected from the group consisting of chloride ions, nitrate ions, bromide ions, iodide ions, chlorate ions, perchlorate ions, thiocyanate ions, and any combination thereof. The ice surface is maintained at a temperature of about ?4° C. to about 14° C. to naturally freeze the salt solution.

Abstract: An oil-in-water personal care composition is disclosed which comprises hydrophobically modified particles selected from the group consisting of silica, metal oxide and mixtures thereof, amino functionalized silicone and hydrophobic starch.

Abstract: A method of manufacturing carburized Lu2O3 doped Mo cathodes for thermionic emission for magnetrons is described. The Lu2O3 doped Mo powder is prepared by sol-gel method. The powder is reduced thoroughly in hydrogen atmosphere. Afterwards, the powder is die-pressed into pellets, followed by sintering in hydrogen and carburization in activated carbon powder to obtain the carburized Lu2O3 doped Mo cathode.

Abstract: System, device and method for protecting aircrafts against incoming threats. The system includes: (a) a dual-band Radio Frequency (RF) track-and-confirm module comprising: a dual-band RF receiver to receive high-band RF signals and low-band RF signals; a threat confirmation module to confirm a possible incoming threat based on processing of RF signals received at the dual-band RF receiver; a threat parameters calculator to calculate a fine angular position and a precise angular position of a confirmed incoming threat, based on processing of RF signals received at low-band RF for fine angular position and at high-band RF for precise angular position; (b) a countermeasure directed Laser module to activate a directed Laser countermeasure towards said precise angular position of said confirmed incoming threat.

Abstract: An office chair allowing removing and mounting of massaging mechanism comprising a seat pad, a back-rest chair pad, a left armrest and a right armrest. There is a cavity inside the back-rest chair pad; a massaging mechanism is fitted inside the cavity; the massaging mechanism comprises a massaging head assembly and a driving assembly, both of which are mounted on a bottom case. The back-rest chair pad is furnished with at least 1 pair of rotary knobs. When the massaging mechanism is fitted inside the cavity and the rotary knobs rotate, press against the bottom case, and retain the massaging mechanism inside the cavity. To take out the massaging mechanism, just rotate the rotary knobs, and take out the massaging mechanism out of the cavity. The massaging mechanism may be replaced for various massaging effects that may relieve fatigues caused by sedentariness.

Abstract: An apparatus for managing transfer of a packet of information to one of a plurality of ports with each the port having an associated port speed includes a double linked list transmit queue and a plurality of port queues corresponding to the plurality of ports. The packet is read to determine a priority and destination port of the packet. A loadsheding value correlating to the packet's destination port and priority is determined and compared with a measure of the amount of free space in the transmit queue. The packet is loaded into the transmit queue if the loadsheding value is less than or equal to the measure of the amount of free space in the transmit queue. The packet is discarded in the event the loadsheding value is greater than the measure of the amount of free space in the transmit queue.
