Abstract: The damage from cyclonic winds is reduced by (1) providing another source of air for the center of the cyclonic wind from outside the system, the air desirably being cooler and denser to minimize the tendency of the air to flow upward; (2) by “plugging” the center of the cyclonic wind to prevent the upward flow of air in the center or the downward flow of air around the inside wall of the cyclonic wind, e.g., by countering the upward flow in the center or by countering the downward flow around the inside of the cyclonic wind flow; and/or (3) by slowing the cyclonic wind directly thus diminishing the flow of air and the ability of the cyclonic wind to form a wind wall.

Abstract: Combinations of betaine and vitamin C are used to suppress or prevent malignant tumors, e.g., by combining the two ingredients in an aqueous liquid such as grape juice and the ingredients are usefully provided in containers with instructions for use, especially with support of tests demonstrating the effectiveness of the treatment for, e.g., preventing tumors in populations known to be at risk of developing tumors, and, optionally, treating existing cancers with the combination and other cancer drugs such as anastrozole and/or fulvestrant.

Abstract: Improved eyeglasses are disclosed that have improvements in comfort, safety, wear ability, and convenience, based upon improvements in the contact (bearing) surfaces where the eyeglasses touch the body by providing air passages, hydrophobic surfaces and/or ratchet-tooth-like structures to promote motion from the bottom of the lenses in front toward the end of earpieces in the back of the head; to methods, articles, etc. for providing such improvements; and to methods for improving acceptance of such improved eyeglasses, especially improved methods of doing business.
