Abstract: An air diffuser having a single air inlet has air outlets straddling a wall of a structure to distribute air to two or more rooms of the structure. The air diffuser includes an adjustable baffle that selectively directs air toward the first and second rooms. The air diffuser includes an acoustic dampener that prevents sound from moving through the air diffuser from one room to the next.

Abstract: Provided herein are small molecule neurotensin receptor agonists, compositions comprising the compounds, and methods of using the compounds and compositions comprising the compounds.

Abstract: Dental devices such as crowns, bridges and implants are disclosed, such devices comprising a self-supporting structural layer, a ceramic outer layer attached to the structural layer, and a porcelain layer attached to the ceramic layer, the ceramic outer layer made of a nitride, oxide or oxynitride of titanium (Ti) or zirconium (Zr). The devices are biocompatible and can have thin layers that are exactingly tailored. In one embodiment, a gold layer is disposed between the ceramic outer layer and the porcelain layer. In one embodiment, the gold layer comprises a nanocomposite of gold and oxides, nitrides or oxynitrides of indium, tin or zinc. In one embodiment, the structural layer is made of a cobalt alloy having a coefficient of expansion that substantially matches that of the porcelain layer. Methods for making and using such devices are also disclosed, including vapor deposition of metal and/or ceramic layers.

Abstract: A multilayer hockey stick is provided having improved impact resistant and energy absorbing characteristics. The hockey stick includes a shaft having a body, an energy absorbing layer and an impact resistant layer. The energy absorbing layer and impact resistant layer are applied to select areas of the shaft of the hockey stick which are prone to failure due to stick-to-stick contact.

Abstract: An annular or porous insert of predetermined weight is mounted at a predetermined location within a tubular golf shaft, the shaft being of any suitable material including either metal or graphite. The insert is circumferentially uniform and is dimensioned so that it does not of itself have an impact on the swing characteristics of the shaft, other than the swingweight and/or the total weight of the manufactured shaft. In this way the swingweight and/or the total weight of the shaft can be altered without having to change the construction of the shaft. Furthermore the insert is simple to install at any desired location and it does not interfere with the assembly of the finish club, nor does it violate the standards of the USGA.
