Abstract: Provided herein are compositions, methods, kits and systems for treating cells, tissues and subjects to alter age-related biology (e.g., to study or to treat age-related diseases and conditions). In particular, provided herein are compositions, methods, and uses for inhibition or modification of sialic acid or its cognate receptor to restore phagocytosis in aged cells.

Abstract: This innovative, top-quality product ensures a fully operational device that will benefit all individuals interested in a cost effective means to convert a cold water pressure washer into a hot water pressure washer. Thus the user will have the full benefit of the cleaning capabilities of both a hot water pressure washer and a cold water pressure washer.

Abstract: A water heating system is disclosed. The water heating system may include a water tank configured to store water, a heating element configured to heat the water inside the water tank, and a sensor configured to measure water temperature in the water tank. The water heating system may further include a controller configured to determine a difference between a target water temperature and the water temperature. The controller may activate the heating element when the determined difference is greater than a differential temperature threshold value. The controller may be further configured to detect a trigger event, and decrease the differential temperature threshold value from a first value to a second value responsive to detecting the trigger event.

Abstract: A system, method and apparatus for network security monitoring, information sharing and collective intelligence between and among at least a first central processing unit and at least a second central processing unit connected together by a network. The system includes a network interface device with hardware-based logic for recognizing and cataloging individual sessions, wherein the network interface card is in communication with the network. The network interface device includes onboard cryptographic key management components with symmetric key algorithms, an onboard packet encryption software module using derived keys to encrypt network packets, and software for storing encrypted copies of network packets as blocks. Third party analyst hardware and software derive keys necessary to retrieve encrypted network packets.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for waveguide-based and free space based optical interconnection in integrated circuits that includes an input optical waveguide with etched end-facets, an output optical waveguide with an end-facets and modulators and detectors.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for achieving high-density and misalignment tolerant short-reach free-space optical interconnects between arbitrary locations in a field, using microlenses, steering elements and a curved reflecting surface.

Abstract: A ceiling tile dust guard is provided wherein the dust guard includes in combination a room having wall and the wall comprising a ceilimg, a ventilation duct vent, and rails in the ceiling. The duct vent defines a plane parallel to the ceiling and provides a direction of air flow out of the vent into the room; the dust guard adjacent the duct vent provides a peripheral wall substantially perpendicular to and projecting away from the duct vent into the room diverting air flowing through the vent away from the ceiling adjacent the vent so that static electricity doesn't attract particles in the air flow onto the ceiling. The duct vent comprises a vent housing and the supporting means comprises rails in the ceiling supporting the vent housing.
