  • Publication number: 20130295547
    Abstract: A study aid includes a text book, a readable code and a computing device. The text book has at least one WorkPatch, wherein the WorkPatch comprises two components, a first component that poses a question, and a second component which assumes that a reader has answered the question, while not providing an answer. The readable code is associated with the at least one WorkPatch. The readable code is positioned proximate the WorkPatch within the text book. The computing device has a computer readable medium containing program instructions. Execution of the program instructions by the computing device carries out the steps of: reading the readable code; providing at least one hint to the answer to the first component of the WorkPatch.

  • Publication number: 20120149931
    Abstract: This invention relates to the use of hydrophilic-rich, rake-type alkylmethylsiloxane-dimethylsiloxane-polyoxyalkylene copolymers. typical values (ranges) x=10-30 y=2-6 z+q=4-5 (q?0.8) p=12 R=dodecyl R??H, Me A hydrophilic-rich alkylmethylsiloxane-dimethylsiloxane-polyoxyalkylene copolymer is hereby defined as an alkylmethylsiloxane-dimethylsiloxane-polyoxyalkylene copolymer possessing sufficient hydrophilic content such that it can be readily taken up by water at a concentration of at least 15% by mass copolymer with simple stirring at room temperature to yield a stable dispersion of micron and sub-micron sized particles. This definition supercedes the typical values of the formula variables x, y, z, q, and p specified above to include all values that result in the copolymer being hydrophilic-rich. This definition also supercedes the typical identity of R=dodecyl shown above to include R being any alkyl or branched-alkyl chain of any length such that the resulting copolymer is hydrophilic-rich.
