Abstract: A method of making a prebaked biscuit product is described. This method includes preparing a dough containing pectin, baking the dough to make a biscuit product, freezing or refrigerating the biscuit product to make a refrigerated or frozen biscuit product, and heating the refrigerated or frozen biscuit product to make a prebaked biscuit product having an improved texture in comparison to a corresponding prebaked biscuit product made without pectin.

Abstract: A bolted joint assembly is described. The joint assembly includes a tubular reinforcement member for adding strength to the anchor assembly. The member having an aperture punched through-and-through the member substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the member. The anchor assembly further includes a hollow spacer tube extending through the aperture, the spacer diameter being substantially equal to the aperture diameter. Moreover, the assembly includes a bolt with a bolt head extended through the spacer. The bolt diameter is substantially equal to the spacer diameter. A nut threadably receives the anchor bolt.

Abstract: A multi-axis athletic training device used to simulate crucial movements in sports to better train and improve the skill set of participating players is provided. This device utilizes at least two devices for rotating to create two independently controlled rotations, each simulating a different motion involved in a movement or swing of a selected sport.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a system and method for detecting the efficacy of machined parts, and particularly to an automated system and method that detects whether tooling features (e.g., holes) are properly formed and aligned in work pieces during the machine tooling process. In one embodiment the system and method includes at least one roller that engages an associated work piece and is capable of applying a rotational force to the work piece, a source of electromagnetic radiation emits electromagnetic radiation through at least one feature of the associated work piece, and a detector for detecting a characteristic associated electromagnetic radiation with the at least one feature of the electromagnetic radiation when the rotational force is applied. The detected characteristic of the electromagnetic radiation is used to determine whether the work piece has been properly tooled (or machined) or contains a defect.

Abstract: A wiring distribution system including connectors, tools, and methods is provided for building wiring. The mechanical and electrical interconnection is performed to the individual connector components in a crimping operation to the individual wires after removal of the outer covering. Using panels with apertures for accepting interchangeable connectors reduces the layers of connecting panels used between a wallplate and a computer.
