Abstract: A method for printing an image with authentication features, including: printing a media treatment material onto a print medium in accordance with a pattern of predefined authentication features, and printing one or more visible printing materials onto the print medium in accordance with an image pattern, thereby providing a printed visible image. The media treatment material alters lateral spreading characteristics of the visible printing materials within the print medium, so that the lateral spreading characteristics are different in image regions where the media treatment material was printed than in image regions where the media treatment material was not printed. The difference in the lateral spreading characteristics causes the pattern of authentication features to be detectable.

Abstract: A gondola shelf wire routing tray includes a trough adapted to receive a wire. A pair of shelf mount tabs are attached to the trough. A wire constraint tab is mounted to the trough and adapted to secure the wire in the trough. The trough is flexible so that the trough may be deformed to permit the pair of shelf mount tabs to move through perforations of a shelf. As a result, the shelf mount tabs are locked into engagement within the perforations and the trough is mounted to the shelf as the trough attempts to spring back to its original shape.

Abstract: Methods and systems for the distributed bulk onboarding of devices onto a Wi-Fi network are provided. A method may comprise receiving, at an onboarding device, Wi-Fi configuration information. Then, it may comprise detecting, at the onboarding device, broadcast information from a plurality of devices that may be onboarded onto the Wi-Fi network, the broadcast information indicating that one or more of the plurality of devices is an onboarding node capable of onboarding another of the plurality of devices. The method may further comprise creating instructions indicating an order in which the plurality of devices may be onboarded, and by which of the one or more onboarding nodes each of the remaining devices of the plurality shall be onboarded, and providing the Wi-Fi configuration information and at least a portion of the instructions to at least one of the onboarding nodes.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention generally relate to methods of knee rehabilitation. Embodiments generally include the use of viscosupplementation delivered intra-articularly in conjunction with rehabilitative therapy and an unloading knee brace. The injection of the viscosupplementation is guided such that the entire dose is delivered to the joint and can flow tricompartmentally.

Abstract: A cleaning tool is configured to remove debris from a glass surface. The cleaning tool includes an upper arm mechanically coupled to an upper pad. A lower arm is rotationally coupled to the upper arm and mechanically coupled to a lower pad. The upper pad and the lower pad are configured to clean both sides of the glass surface at once.

Abstract: The present invention relates to novel compounds, their use as anti-cancer agents and their synthesis. In particular, the compounds contain cluster boron moieties such as carborane or a borohydride and act as inhibitors for the enzyme Nampt. The biological properties of the inventive cluster boron compounds, in terms of biological inhibition and antiproliferative effect, are greater than other small molecule inhibitors of Nampt.

Abstract: Embodiments generally relate to methods of visual delivery of prehab and rehabilitation. Embodiments generally include the use a remote device to receive visual instruction for prehab and rehabilitation. The visual instruction can be create during the interaction between the patient and the skilled provider. The visual instruction is created, modified or utilized by the patient under the direction of a skilled provider. Further, the visual instruction is modified based on feedback from the patient.

Abstract: Quick-connect disconnect connectors are provided as part of an electrical assembly used to electrically couple components to the end of an electrical track section. The connectors have a tongue portion insertable into the end of the track only one way to ensure against cross-wiring and include structures for retaining electrical contacts and strain reliefs. The connectors readily disconnect from the end of the track when force is applied which might be sufficient to damage the track or electrical assembly to prevent such damage.

Abstract: An aircraft system and method with a first counterweight rotating balancing rotor mass concentration, and a second counterweight rotating balancing rotor mass concentration to balance a first aircraft propeller. The system includes an inboard electromagnetic coil driver with a first inboard electromagnetic coil, and a second inboard electromagnetic coil, the inboard electromagnetic coil driver and the first counterweight balancing rotor and the second counterweight balancing rotor centered around the aircraft propeller shaft rotating machine member. The system/method utilizes a first control system controller to control the coils and position the mass concentrations to balance the first aircraft propeller. The system/method includes a third counterweight rotating balancing rotor mass concentration, and a fourth counterweight rotating balancing rotor mass concentration to balance a second aircraft propeller which positioned and controlled by a second control system controller.

Abstract: The present invention provides methods and devices for producing polyhedral boron compounds. The process is generally an anhydrous, one-pot process that comprises a pyrolytic reaction of a tetraborohydride with a quaternary amine salt to form the polyhedral borane. In another aspect of the present invention, polyhedral boranes are produced, without isolation of the Lewis base-borane complex.

Abstract: An aqueous ink jet printer ink composition is designed for ink jet printing of fluorescent images. This composition contains fluorescent pigment particles that have (1) an excitation peak wavelength of at least 300 nm and less than 400 nm, and (2) an emission peak that is greater than 400 nm and up to and including 700 nm when exposed to fluorescent-exciting radiation. The non-polymeric fluorescent pigment particles have a median particle size that is greater than 10 nm and up to and including 500 nm, and the 95th percentile fluorescent pigment particle size is less than 150 nm. The composition can be continuously printed on various pretreated or untreated receiver elements or articles to provide a fluorescent image that can be detected when excited at the appropriate wavelength. The fluorescent image can thus be used as a security or identification mark for various purposes.
