Abstract: The ankle monitor guard, or AMG, is a neoprene and rayon sleeve that is worn over a personal ankle monitor. The purpose of the guard is to deter an incident of tampering from being reported should an ankle monitor be temporarily submerged in water. The guard also serves to help muffle the noise emitted by these devices. The guard also serves a discretionary purpose by concealing the underlying device allowing the user to more freely wear clothing that exposes the ankle in public. It is the intent of this invention to provide the user with more freedom of choices with regards to activities performed, clothing worn, and therefore know that they have options gained by the use of the ankle monitor guard.

Abstract: Techniques for content marking are provided. An Application includes a plug-in which permits an offset location within a document to be marked as a content marker. The content marker is stored independent of the application and is subsequently processed by a content marking service. The content marking service permits the content marker to be selected causing the application to be initiated, the document to be loaded within the application, and the offset location to be presented within the document.

Abstract: An activation mechanism for a reserve battery cell generally includes a housing with a chamber containing an electrolytic solution and a delivery device configured to discharge the electrolytic solution from the housing. The delivery device includes a compressed spring configured to be released in response to an external force to initiate the discharge of the electrolytic solution from the housing.

Abstract: An existing shower is retrofitted with a novel shower panel that uses the existing on/off water pressure and temperature control valve without any re-plumbing behind the shower wall. The shower panel includes a support frame, a diverter valve, a plurality of water jets, a side showerhead, a hand nozzle and an overhead showerhead. The support frame has an open side that faces the shower wall. A first tube connects the diverter valve to the plurality of water jets. A second tube is connected to the diverter valve at a first end and has a threaded connector at the second end. The threaded connector is adapted to connect to a shower water source after the existing shower pipe is removed. The first tube has a smaller diameter than does the second tube. The plurality of water jets are arranged within a square that is twenty-five centimeters on a side.

Abstract: A communications system may include at least one mobile wireless communications device and an advertising server cooperating with the at least one mobile wireless communications device via a wireless communications network. The advertising server may be for generating an activity history for the at least one wireless communications device including geographical positions at corresponding times of day, and selectively sending advertisements to the at least one mobile wireless communications device based upon the activity history and a given time of day.

Abstract: A communications system may include an advertising server for providing at least one group of related advertising terms, and a mobile wireless communications device comprising a display, a user input device, and a processor coupled to the display and the user input device. The processor may be configured to display a user search interface on the display, receive entry of search query characters, and match the entered search query characters to identify at least one predicted search query term. Moreover, if the at least one predicted search query term is among the at least one group of related advertising terms, then the processor may cause the display to display at least one other of the group that would otherwise not match the entered search query character data.

Abstract: A multi-color cavity ringdown based spectrometer is housed in a light tight enclosure to detect the presence of trace quantities of gas phase molecules emanating from explosives, drugs, or hazardous materials being transported through the enclosure or compounds contained in a patient's breath. A method is also disclosed for detecting gas phase molecules emanating from explosives, drugs, hazardous materials, or a patient's breath.

Abstract: A bumper cover and lamp housing assembly (14) (“assembly”) includes a bumper cover (22) and a lamp housing (24) that is releasably attached to bumper cover (22). Bumper cover (22) has a one-piece construction (30) with one of a tongue fastener (28) and a groove fastener (26). Lamp housing (24) has a single-piece construction (46) with the other of the tongue fastener (28) and groove fastener (26). Tongue fastener (28) is slidably attached directly to groove fastener (26).

Abstract: The present invention relates to an imaging member such as a photoconductor that includes an olefin based polymer. The olefin based polymer may be formed from a metathesis polymerization of an olefin or the chain polymerization of a cycloolefin. A method is also disclosed including the formation of a solution for coating a photoconductive surface. The method involves the addition of the olefin based polymer to a solvent followed by coating of a photoconductive surface which coating may then serve as a charge transport layer within an image forming device.

Abstract: A composite material has two common constituents including a reinforcement (e.g. such as fiberglass, carbon fiber and/or other suitable fiber or reinforcement) and a binder material integral with the reinforcement for providing a matrix; Additionally, at least one filler is integrated with the binder, which comprises a particulate material that is formed from at least one agricultural grain or other byproduct of energy production from agricultural material. The agricultural grain particulate filler may be a refined product (e.g. starch or flour), a byproduct from grain processing such as distillers grain (DDG), and or simple ground up grain products. The invention also contemplates use of bio-energy production byproducts (to include non-grain components such as processed foliage) for other constituent parts of the composite such as reinforcement.
