Abstract: A Link 16 terminal. The Link 16 terminal includes a red enclave. The red enclave comprises a Link 16 radio. The Link 16 radio is configured to send commands to Link 16 modems. The commands specify time slots when operations in the commands should be performed by the Link 16 modems. The Link 16 terminal further includes a black enclave physically separated from the red enclave. The black enclave includes a Link 16 modem configured to receive commands from the Link 16 radio. The Link 16 terminal further includes a communication channel configured to facilitate communication between the red enclave and the black enclave. The Link 16 radio is configured to dynamically adjust when commands are sent to the Link 16 modem with respect to time slots specified in the commands based on latency between the Link 16 radio and the Link 16 modem.

Abstract: A process for manufacturing a wax-like cosmetic stick having an improved contour on its upper surface, by filling at the open bottom of the case with the stick material in a molten state, the case having a cap which provides the contour, allowing the stick to partially solidify, while maintaining the upper surface molten, placing a push-up device in the bottom of the case, seating the push-up device against the molten upper surface, said push-up being designed to allow substantially all of the air to escape during seating, then allowing final solidification of the stick.
