Abstract: An ultraviolet ink composition includes from 25 wt % to 50 wt % of a pigment dispersion, from greater than 0 wt % to 10 wt % of a photoinitiator package; from 10 wt % to 42 wt % of a reactive diluent; from 10 wt % to 20 wt % of a multifunctional monomer; and from 0 wt % to 25 wt % of a difunctional monomer. An ink primer includes from 2 wt % to 10 wt % of an adhesion promoter configured to bond to glass and from 90 wt % to 98 wt % of a solvent configured to promote bonding of the adhesion promoter to the glass. Another ink primer includes from 2 wt % to 10 wt % of an adhesion promoter configured to bond to glass, from greater than 0 wt % to 10 wt % of a photoinitiator package; and from 30 wt % to 45 wt % of a monofunctional monomer.

Abstract: A device for precise cutting of imitation stone. An upper blade is mounted to an upper blade mount assembly for vertical sliding movement over a stationary lower blade. Downward movement of a handle rotates a cam surface that engages a convex upper surface of the upper blade mount assembly. This action moves the upper blade into contact with a piece of imitation stone disposed between the upper and lower blades, and further lowering of the upper blade then cuts the stone. The cutting edge of each of the blades is beveled on one side only such that each of the blade edges is asymmetrical in vertical cross-section.

Abstract: A control loop system is provided that employs an active DC output control circuit that more accurately calibrates the desire voltage at a load, e.g. 3.3 volts, by adjusting a trim pin on a DC/DC converter. In a first embodiment, an active DC output control circuit calibrates a DC/DC converter that is connected to a single load. In a second embodiment, an active DC output control circuit calibrates multiple DC/DC converters that are connected to multiple loads.

Abstract: The invention provides methods of modulating appetite, body weight and/or reproductive function in a mammal by modulating leptin receptor long form (LRb)-STAT3 signaling.
