Abstract: A mobile recharging power source with a lighting accessory includes a battery pack, the battery pack having a plurality of battery cells contained within a housing and electrically connected to a receiving connector disposed on the housing. A lamp may be provided on the housing, along with a switch to turn the lamp on and off. A lighting accessory is provided for connection to the receiving connector of the battery pack. The lighting accessory includes at least one light source, such as an incandescent or LED lamp, and the light source is connected to a mating connector which is adapted for connection to the receiving connector of the battery pack. Additionally, a charging accessory is provided having a mating connector for connection to the receiving connector, and a device specific connector adapted for connection to a recharging port of a portable electronic device.

Abstract: A method and apparatus that predicts electromagnetic emissions and susceptibility attributes of an electric device. A simulation is conducted which utilizes a series of mathematical calculations to predict performance of four facets of electromagnetic interference (EMI): conducted emissions; conducted susceptibility; radiated emissions; and radiated susceptibility. The method and apparatus provides for the analytical evaluation of electromagnetic interference of electrical devices prior to testing and actual measuring of fields emitted by circuits, thereby providing a system for EMI control methods, EMI test costs, and device redesign and retest.

Abstract: An internal combustion engine in a hybrid electric vehicle powers an alternator or generator, providing current while the engine's cooling system supplies heat to warm or cool the batteries in a thermostatically controlled manner. Further embodiments utilize heat from the exhaust and catalytic converter to maintain the engine's temperature at an efficient level, and increase the amount of usable heat energy within the system. Organized compartmentalization and insulation of system components controls storage, distribution and release of heat energy during operation and shut-down for increased efficiency and reduced pollutant emissions.

Abstract: The present invention provides for compounds having the following Formulae I-III, ##STR1## and ##STR2## The compounds of the present invention are useful in the treatment of a variety of disease such as glaucoma, sexual dysfunction, asthma and cardiovascular disorders such as stable-, unstable- and variant-angina, hypertension, pulmonary hypertension, congestive heart failure, atherosclerosis, and thrombosis.

Abstract: A method, apparatus, and article of manufacture for object based systems management of a computer network. An object based representation of the network is stored in a memory of a computer. The object-based representation comprises one or more objects linked together in the memory to form a hierarchy, wherein each of the objects represents the network, one or more nodes within the network, or one or more components executed by each of the nodes within the network. Each of the objects stores systems management information about the network, node, or component. A utility interface selects the objects to be manipulated by the computer to perform systems management functions for the network.

Abstract: A structure or housing manufacture and method for fabricating and constructing same comprising a small, lightweight static or movable building, storage or utility structure the structural elements of which include synthetic polymer composition, for example such as polyvinyl chloride (PVC), wherein joining of the structural elements is accomplished substantially by use of polymer adhesive bonding of said structural elements using L-shaped, right-angled plastic clips as joint-forming and strengthening elements.
