Abstract: The invention relates to a non-invasive imaging method of bacteria. One embodiment comprises labeling the bacteria with a radioisotope, then delivering it to the gut of a human or animal. Another embodiment is to label bacteriophages, then administer them to a human or animal, so that they infect (and thus co-localize with) bacteria already resident in the human or animal. The bacteriophage can then be imaged, showing the location of the resident bacteria of interest. In another embodiment, the invention is related more generally to the labelling of bacteria or bacteriophages with a radio-metal or radioisotope to render the labeled gut bacteria and the bacteria in the body visible to nuclear medicine PET and SPECT imaging guided by functional/structural MRI and/or CT imaging.

Abstract: An anonymous reporting system for use in reporting and following up on incidents, accidents, and the like. The system may be accessed via an Internet website. A reporting individual may select a type of incident to report. In one example, the reporting individual may select a level on anonymity and some, none or all of the individual's personal identification is displayed to the organization according to the selected level.

Abstract: A wireless conference call telephone system uses body-worn wired or wireless audio endpoints comprising microphones and, optionally, speakers. These audio-endpoints, which include headsets, pendants, and clip-on microphones to name a few, are used to capture the user's voice and the resulting data may be used to remove echo and environmental acoustic noise. Each audio-endpoint transmits its audio to the telephony gateway, where noise and echo suppression can take place if not already performed on the audio-endpoint, and where each audio-endpoint's output can be labeled, integrated with the output of other audio-endpoints, and transmitted over one or more telephony channels of a telephone network. The noise and echo suppression can also be done on the audio-endpoint. The labeling of each user's output can be used by the outside caller's phone to spatially locate each user in space, increasing intelligibility.

Abstract: A turkey sensor that is used to scout an area without the hunter being present. The device locates wildlife by recording their vocals primarily turkey and duck roosts in the first 30 minutes of daylight in the early morning.

Abstract: An analytical instrument is disclosed comprising a liquid chromatography system comprising a first column, a chromatographic delay line and a splitter arranged and adapted in a mode of operation to split eluent from the first column into a first portion of eluent and a second portion of eluent. The instrument further comprises a first device. The liquid chromatography system is arranged and adapted in the mode of operation: (i) to pass the first portion of eluent from the splitter to the first device such that a first part of the first portion of eluent arrives at the first device at a first time ti and a second part of the first portion of eluent arrives at the first device at a second time t2.

Abstract: A media sharing system that shares media obtained on cell phones or tablets from many users, who have joined an event. The media can be photos. An event is created based on at least one of a time, location, or some other parameter. Each user to the event uploads their photos from the event, and receives photos from others in the event. Then a composite of multiple different photos is created. This can be done for sports events or hotels.

Abstract: The present application is directed to methods and devices for moving a cartridge between engaged and disengaged positions in an image forming device. The image forming device may include a bias control arm movable between first and second positions. When the bias control arm is in one of the first and second positions, a biasing force on the cartridge is reduced and the cartridge moves to the disengaged position. When the bias control arm is in the other of the first and second positions, a biasing force on the cartridge is increased and the cartridge is moved to the engaged position. In one embodiment, the bias control arm moves in a first direction, and the cartridge moves in a second direction different than the first direction.

Abstract: An imaging device is shown, including a plurality of color imaging units, each color imaging unit selectively depositing toner forming a distinct color toner image; an intermediate transfer member for cooperating with the color imaging units such that the color toner images are deposited thereon; and a black imaging unit for depositing black toner having a photoconductive member on which the black toner is deposited to form a black toner image. The intermediate transfer member and the black imaging unit are configured so that during a color print operation, color toner images deposited on the intermediate transfer member are deposited therefrom onto the photoconductive member of the black imaging unit, and the color toner images and the black toner image are subsequently deposited onto a to media sheet.
