Abstract: A refrigerator has an open front, an air curtain system having at least one upper air egress having an outer edge and at least one lower air-recovery ingress. The air curtain system is adapted to produce a substantially vertical air curtain over at least part of the open front of the refrigerator. The refrigerator has a plurality of shelves between the egress and the ingress a plurality of shelves between the egress and the ingress including a first shelf that has an aerofoil positioned in front of it, the first shelf being located in the upper half of the open front of refrigerator. The refrigerator also includes a second shelf that does not have an aerofoil positioned in front of it, the second shelf being located below the first shelf.

Abstract: A garment worn on the upper body is provided with a back support system that can be selectively actuated as needed, and otherwise remains relatively unobtrusive when not actuated. The back support system includes a selectively inflatable and deflatable air bladder positioned at a desired location on a rear part of the garment opposite a portion of the wearer's back that needs support. Preferably, the air bladder is disposed within a pocket or compartment, preferably defined on an interior side of the garment, thereby leaving the exterior of the garment relatively unaltered in a visual sense. In a particular example, the air bladder of the present invention has a physical configuration designed to support specific portions of the spinal column as well as adjoining musculature.

Abstract: An engine system comprises an internal combustion engine, a turbocharger and an external wastegate valve. The turbocharger includes a housing for an exhaust gas turbine and a separate housing for the wastegate valve. The turbine housing is liquid cooled so as to reduce its operating temperature thereby allowing it to be made from an aluminium alloy so as to save cost and reducing, during use, the radiation of heat therefrom.

Abstract: A method for conducting an interactive financial simulation. The method is implemented at least in part by a computer and includes transmitting an initial financial projection for a fictitious company, transmitting a news story, generating a new share price for the fictitious company based on an index, generating a new financial projection for the fictitious company based on a set of decisions selected for implementation by a participant of the interactive financial simulation, and generating a final share price for the fictitious company based on a final set of decisions selected for implementation by the participant.
