Abstract: A composition comprising a high purity cannabinoid, an acid, and a pharmaceutically-acceptable solvent achieves room temperature stability for over 24 months. The acid improves the stability of the composition and the solvent enhances the solubility of the acid, thereby allowing the acid to have an improved stabilizing effect on the highly pure cannabinoid. Preferably, the solvent is an alcohol and, more preferably, the composition contains an oil. A method for making the composition includes combining the cannabinoid and the solvent and evaporating a portion of the solvent, along with adding an acid to the composition, before, during, or after the evaporating step. A method for making and storing the composition includes storing the composition in a manner adapted to maintain its stability. Pharmaceutical dosage forms include a formulated composition, such as having the oil. A method of treating a subject comprises administering to the subject the dosage form.

Abstract: A method for motion detection is provided that includes determining a first motion measure for a pixel based on differences between first neighboring pixels of the pixel, determining a detail measure for the pixel, wherein the detail measure is indicative of an amount of detail in second neighboring pixels of the pixel, adapting a first coring threshold and a first gain of a first transfer function based on the detail measure, and using the adapted first transfer function to map the first motion measure to a first motion parameter.

Abstract: A processing system features random access memory (RAM), a processor, and a trusted platform module (TPM). When the processing system enters a sleep mode during which the RAM is to stay powered, the processing system may measuring a VMM and one or more secure VMs in the processing system. However, the processing system may not measure or encrypt all of system memory. Upon resuming from sleep, the processing system may verify the measurements, to ensure that the VMM and secure VMs have not been tampered with. Other steps may include sealing encryption keys to the TPM, while preserving the blobs in memory. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Abstract: A method of detecting intrusions on a computer includes the step of identifying an internet protocol field range describing fields within internet protocol packets received by a computer. A connectivity range is also established which describes a distribution of network traffic received by the computer. An internet protocol field threshold and a connectivity threshold are then determined from the internet protocol field range and connectivity range, respectively. During the operation of the computer, values are calculated for the internet protocol field range and connectivity range. These values are compared to the internet protocol metric threshold and connectivity metric threshold so as to identify an intrusion on the computer.

Abstract: A cooking apparatus includes a rapid activation module in communication with a continuous oven. The rapid activation module includes a steam chamber having an inlet and an outlet and a plurality of steam knives disposed at select position within the steam chamber. The steam knives may be selectably adjusted to achieve and maintain a desired level of steam condensation within the steam chamber by isolating a main body of the steam chamber from air and/or vapor infiltration from an associated oven and/or the outside environment.

Abstract: An improved continuous process for cooking bacon includes the steps of continuously feeding bacon strips in three or more rows to an inlet of a spiral cooking oven, moving the bacon strips along a spiral path inside the spiral oven, applying a cooking fluid into the spiral oven and through the spiral path, and cooking the bacon strips in the spiral oven to a yield percentage having a mean bandwidth variation not greater than 4.5%. A conveyor belt having variable weaving includes belt openings that are initially larger through an inner side of the belt than through an outer side of the belt, when the belt is straight. When the belt collapses into the spiral configuration, the openings adjust so that the areal size of the openings is similar on both lateral sides of the belt, resulting in more even distribution of cooking fluid and more uniform cooking. By cooking the bacon more uniformly, the product yield can be increased significantly.
