Abstract: An ultraviolet enhancer (UVE) holder (428) may be configured to attach a UVE (424) having an outer envelope (530) to an electrical lead (420) of a lamp (400) and to retain the UVE (424) within the lamp (400) in a desired position. The UVE holder (428) may include a plurality of turns (640) comprising a first turn (642) and a final turn (644). The first and final turns (642, 644) may have a substantially similar inner diameter (D) defining a through passage (646) shaped to conformingly receive the outer envelope (530) of the UVE (424). The UVE holder (428) may further include a first leg (534) depending from the first turn (642), wherein the first leg (534) may have a first distal portion (648) remote from the first turn (642) defining a first attachment region (650) adapted for attachment to a lamp capsule electrical lead (410).

Abstract: A stretchable device is provided including a base layer; a wipe layer attached to the base layer at a seam and defining an interior space between the wipe and base layers, the interior space having an internal surface; and a pouch positioned within the interior space and attached to one of the seam and the internal surface, the pouch having a top layer, a bottom layer attached to the top layer to form a cavity therebetween, an opening in one of the top and bottom layers, and a pull tab coupled to the pouch and to one of the seam and the internal surface.

Abstract: A social networking or dating platform and method that systematically documents and stores evaluations by participants of their networking or dating experiences. Each evaluation is then sent, by, for example, email and or SMS, to the other participant in the date. Advantageously, the system processes each evaluation to determine a date rating and prompts the participants to take further action based on that rating. The social networking or dating system further comprises a widget interface.

Abstract: A metal halide arc discharge lamp (10) having a lamp envelope (12) and an arc tube (14) mounted within the envelope; a shroud (20) surrounding the arc tube (14); electrical lead-ins (26, 28) for supplying electrical energy to the arc tube (14); and a chemical fill within the arc tube to produce light when an arc is formed within the arc tube; the improvement comprising: the shroud (20) having a given thickness T and a given inside diameter ID having a relationship such that T is less than 2 mm and ID/T is less than 22.
