Abstract: Formation evaluation measurements are used to estimate formation lithology. The estimated lithology is used to provide an estimate of acoustic wave slowness. The estimated acoustic wave slowness is used to provide processing parameters for acoustic data that are less sensitive to noise.

Abstract: The present invention provides an environmentally safe and highly effective method for killing bed bugs by enclosing infested items, belongings or possessions in a sealed container along with a small amount of certain solvents, the vapors of which kill bed bugs that are present.

Abstract: A golf putting training device for improving the putting of a golfer. The golf putting training device includes a body member having a base portion. The base portion is designed for resting on a support surface. The body member has a distal wall. The distal wall is coupled to a distal edge of the base portion. The distal wall is designed for hampering the back swing of the golfer when the golfer does not draw the putter back straight. The body member has a cut out portion. The cut out portion extends in from a leading edge of the base portion. The cut out portion is designed for receiving a golf ball whereby the cut out portion aligns the golf ball with a longitudinal axis of the base portion.

Abstract: An exhaust pipe adapter for connecting a conventional garden hose to an exhaust pipe of a vehicle for the purpose of humanely exterminating underground dwelling vermin by the exhaust fumes of the vehicle being directed from the distal end of the garden hose into a hole in the ground. The exhaust pipe adapter includes a tubular rubbery body having a large opening at one end sized for placement over and releasable connection to an exhaust pipe end, and the opposite end of the adapter is affixed with rigid male threads sized for connection to the female end of a standard garden hose. The rubbery body of the adapter includes differing internal diameters to allow it to be snugly attached to largely varying exhaust pipe diameters. An adjustable circular hose clamp is provided to compress the rubbery body onto the exterior surface of the exhaust pipe to maintain the adapter in place during use.
