Abstract: A spill proof closure (3, 9, 13, and 20) is provided which can be employed with a wide variety of containers and liquids. The caps (3, 9) can be used to replace the cap provided by the manufacture to prevent spills when poring the liquid in the container (5, 11) in to a receptacle. The seal (13, 20) can be used by a manufacture to replace the removable seal they already use to make their container (14, 17) spill proof the first time it is used.

Abstract: The invention provides methods of treating or preventing bleeding events or over-anticoagulation in a subject in need thereof who is identified as having sensitivity to a vitamin K antagonist such as warfarin by administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of an FXa inhibitor, which can be a direct or indirect FXa inhibitor, or a warfarin or VKA alternative drug or compound. The direct FXa inhibitor can be the small molecule edoxaban p-toluenesulfonate monohydrate, edoxaban, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt and/or hydrate thereof. In aspects, the subject is identified as having one or more genetic polymorphisms in genes CYP2C9 and/or VKORC1 resulting in loss of function, reduction in function, or aberrant function of these genes and/or their protein products, and sensitivity to warfarin.

Abstract: A manifold for a torque converter assembly is disclosed. The manifold may have a base portion configured to be fixedly connected to a frame of a mobile machine. The base portion may have a first face, a second face, and an outer radial surface located between the first face and the second face. The manifold may also have a sleeve portion extending axially away from the second face of the base portion. The sleeve portion may have an outer radial surface. The base portion may further have a first passageway configured to receive hydraulic fluid. The first passageway may have an inlet in the outer radial surface of the base portion and an outlet in the outer radial surface of the sleeve portion. The manifold may also have a second passageway configured to receive hydraulic fluid. The second passageway may have an inlet in the first face and an outlet in the second face.

Abstract: A utility consumption information system establishes a virtual billing cycle to enable a user to calculate a bill-to-date cost of utility service related to a certain site without waiting for a utility bill sent from an associated utility service provider. The utility consumption information system provides utility consumption information to a user in an informative user interface and enables the user to monitor utility consumption associated with the site. Moreover, the utility consumption information system allows the user to compare the utility consumption of the site with one or more references, and thus assists the user to determine whether a change in the utility consumption is due to an external factor or an internal factor.

Abstract: The present invention provides multifunctional nanoplatforms for assessing the activity of a protease in vivo or in vitro, along with methods of imaging and detecting the presence of cancerous or precancerous tissues, and the therapeutic treatment thereof, including monitoring of treatment. The diagnostic nanoplatforms comprise nanoparticles and are linked to each other or other particles via an oligopeptide linkage that comprises a consensus sequence specific for the target protease. Cleavage of the sequence by the target protease can be detected using various sensors, and the diagnostic results can be correlated with cancer prognosis. Individual unlinked nanoplatforms are also adaptable for therapeutic hyperthermia treatment of the cancerous tissue.

Abstract: My Improved Electrical Generator is a high efficiency generator that functions by a series of frictionless bearings and rotating magnets.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method of regionalizing a product for specific markets for the purposes of language localization, insuring compliance with local laws and standards, or theft prevention. The method is applicable to goods comprising an initially-sold machine or device and consumable items required by the machine or device. The method comprises regionalizing the consumable items; the first-installed consumable used in the machine or device then causes the machine or device to be regionalized, such that the machine or device subsequently only accepts consumables with the same regionalization. Also disclosed are apparatus to implement the method.

Abstract: Disclosed are transceivers for communicating with wireless memory devices integral with replaceable printing components, the transceivers configured to separately access multiple antennas for selectively communicating with a plurality of memory devices. Also disclosed are printing systems incorporating such transceivers.

Abstract: A method of determining the location of a movable icon on a display surface in a digital light projection system is disclosed. The method includes projecting modulated light to the display surface to generate a viewable image and projecting an identifiable optical signal to the display surface with the viewable image such that said viewable image is not observably degraded. The identifiable optical signal is receivable by the icon on the display surface.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a replaceable printing component for use in a printing system having at least one replaceable printing component. The replaceable printing component is of the type sold through a plurality of sales channels. The replaceable printing component includes a radio frequency link for receiving information indicative of a particular sales channel of a plurality of sales channels. Also included in the replaceable printing component is an electrical storage device for storing information indicative of the particular sales channel. The electrical storage device provides information indicative of the particular sales channel for reordering the replaceable printing component.

Abstract: A system and method for collecting and processing physical data obtained by various detection devices mounted to a vehicle, such as an aerial craft. Specifically, the present illustrated embodiment(s) involve the use of an aerial craft, such as a helicopter, to capture continuous visual, spatial, and related physical data, and a method for selecting certain representative pieces of the captured unprocessed data to create a discrete stream of processed data. The discrete data stream may then be analyzed and any defects and/or anomalies may be identified within the physical data.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a marking engine for use in a marking machine. The marking engine is responsive to control signals for selectively depositing marking material on media. The marking engine includes a housing associated with the marking engine. The housing is configured for docking with the printing system. The housing has an undocked position and a docked position wherein the housing is secured to a receiving station associated with the marking machine. Also included is a radio frequency linking device mounted to the housing so that there is substantially no relative movement between the radio frequency linking device and a corresponding radio frequency linking device associated with the receiving station when the marking engine is in the docked position with the marking machine. The radio frequency linking device provides a radio frequency link for transferring information between the marking engine and the marking machine.

Abstract: A printing system includes an inkjet printhead for selectively depositing ink drops on print media. An ink reservoir stores ink to be provided to the inkjet printhead. An ink level sensing circuit provides an ink level sense output that is indicative of a sensed volume of ink in the ink reservoir. A memory device stores sensor compensation information. A processor responsive to output of the memory device and the ink level sense output generates a compensated ink level sense output. The processor provides an estimate of available ink based on the compensated ink level sense output.
