Abstract: Apparatus for thermal transfer printing of an image from a thermal retransfer sheet onto an article, includes heating means (40, 42, 44, 46) adapted to supply heated gas at a variable flow rate. Also disclosed is a method of printing an image, and the resulting printed article.

Abstract: A support for an article onto which an image is to be printed by thermal transfer printing from a retransfer intermediate sheet has a surface shaped for engagement with the article, at least a portion of the surface being formed from an elastomeric material. Also disclosed are a method of making a support, apparatus for thermal transfer printing, a method of printing and an article bearing a printed image.

Abstract: Apparatus for thermal transfer printing of an image from a thermal retransfer sheet onto an article, includes heating means adapted to supply a flow of heated gas for causing dye transfer, and oscillating vane means for directing the heated gas in a direction transverse to the direction of flow, for distributing the heated gas over article(s) during dye transfer. Also disclosed is a method of printing an image, and the resulting printed article.

Abstract: A heuristically-driven platform and method for hiring based on previously-supported jobs and collected metrics solves the problem of efficiently connecting hiring agents and suitable job candidates. A portal application includes an inventory of successful placements and successful listings, allowing hiring agents to build job searches against a database of historical jobs. Leveraging the portal's inventory of placements and listings, the hiring agent may build a listing and design a candidate search based on previous listings, search venues for the same job type and metrics collected against each. An embodiment may provide the hiring agent a listing of the hiring agent's jobs, a list of applicants for each listed job and the detail for each applicant. The platform monitors applicant flow, online interviews, and site usage analytics for each position, suggesting alternatives and course corrections to the hiring agent if the performance of the job search is sub-par based on benchmarks.

Abstract: An engine arrangement for a vehicle, such as a commercial vehicle such as a truck, includes subsequently arranged and encompassed in a casing an engine block, an engine transmission and a flywheel. A noise shield patch is arranged at a circumferential section of the casing corresponding to the location of the flywheel and/or the engine transmission overlaying not more than 75% of the circumferential section. The patch is arranged predominantly beneath the casing.

Abstract: A holder for wearing by a user, slidably, replaceably, and visibly holding an ID card, and replaceably and visibly holding at least one specifically configured charm. The holder includes a frame, a first apparatus allowing the holder to be worn by the user, a second apparatus slidably, replaceably, and visibly holding the ID card, and a third apparatus replaceably and visibly holding the at least one specifically configured charm.

Abstract: An animal tag includes a flag (11) of substantially flexible material about which is secured a substantially rigid assembly (14) including a flanged member (15), a cap (17), and an insert (18) which assists the retention of the head of a male tag (not shown) within the cap (17). In another embodiment the tag is formed as a strip of indeterminate length of the flexible material. The aperture (19) may also be omitted and formed during use of the tag, by the head of the male tag. The substantially rigid assembly (14) may provide part of a male tag or part of a female tag as shown.
