| 20100267862 | METHODS OF PREVENTING FROST FORMATION AND FACILITATING THE REMOVAL OF WINTER PRECIPITATION RELATIVE TO A WINDSHIELD AND COMPOSITIONS FOR USE THEREIN - Disclosed herein is a winter precipitation barrier composition, comprising: a retaining agent, a solvent, and optionally, an auxiliary component, such as a rheology/viscosity modifier, surfactant, detergent, foaming/defoaming additive, humectant, dye, colorant, fragrance, or a combinations thereof. In one embodiment, the retaining agent comprises a primarily hydrophobic monomer or a hydrophilic monomer. | 10-21-2010 |
| 20110114234 | Explosive mixtures containing readily gasified additives - A readily gasified additive has been added to AN (ammonium nitrate) based bulk explosives (ANFO, emulsions, and combinations thereof) with positive results, due to the time, temperature, and pressure conditions generated in a blasthole. The preferred final explosive mixture is primarily comprised of AN, fuel oil, and a carbonaceous additive material that is characterized as being readily gasified as indicated by its rapid release of volatile materials and char formation, the high internal porosity and surface area of the base material and its char, and the uniform distribution of catalytic mineral matter throughout the material. It is understood that other readily gasified additives may be similarly effective. | 05-19-2011 |

| 20090074811 | KENNEL COUGH VACCINE - Improved, low cost vaccines for administration to living subjects such as mammals and birds are provided, which include killed recombinantly modified microorganisms (whole cell recombinant bacterin vaccine), the latter including recombinant DNA encoding at least one protective protein (e.g., an antigenic protein) which has been expressed by the microorganisms prior to killing thereof. The protective protein(s) are operable to prevent or reduce the severity of a disease of the subject. The vaccine preparations of the invention do not require separation of the protective protein(s) from the host recombinant microorganism(s), thereby materially decreasing the complexity and cost of the vaccine formulations. A preferred vaccine against kennel cough includes recombinantly modified microorganisms which express protective antigens containing pertactin and filamentous hemagglutinin protein products. | 03-19-2009 |

| 20100074294 | APPARATUS AND METHOD OF ESTABLISHING OPTICAL COMMUNICATION CHANNELS BETWEEN A STEERABLE ARRAY OF LASER EMITTERS AND AN ARRAY OF OPTICAL DETECTORS - An array of light beam emitter sections comprises: a substrate having a surface divided into an array of sections; and a grouping of light emitters disposed at each surface section and configured to emit light beams at different emission angles with respect to the surface. Also disclosed is apparatus for establishing optical communication channels between the array of light beam emitter sections and an array of light detectors. Further disclosed is a method of establishing optical communication channels between the array of light emitter sections and the array of light detectors by mapping at least one light emitter of each grouping with a light detector of the detector array to establish optical communication channels between the arrays based on the mappings. | 03-25-2010 |
| 20100074576 | Optical Connections And Methods Of Forming Optical Connections - In one embodiment, method of forming fibers is provided. The method includes modifying a first exposed edge of at least one core of a first fiber. The first fiber has a first end, a second end, and a length between the first end and the second end. The second end has the first exposed edge of the core, and the first exposed edge has a first diffusion state. The first fiber may transmit light along the core. The modification of the first exposed edge includes modifying the first diffusion state of the first exposed edge of the core to a second diffusion state such that light exiting the first exposed edge in the second diffusion state is spread over a greater number of angles relative to angles of the light exiting the first exposed edge in the first diffusion state. | 03-25-2010 |
| 20100150502 | Optical Connections And Methods Of Forming Optical Connections - In one embodiment, an assembly having a first board, a second board, a fiber bundle, and at least one movable stage is provided. The fiber bundle has a first end and a second end, and the first end of the fiber bundle is attached to the first board first face. The movable stage has a second optical array provided thereon or therein. The movable stage is disposed on the second board such that the at least one motor steers the movable stage. The movable stage is steered such that the second optical array is aligned with the second end of the fiber bundle in a desired manner. | 06-17-2010 |
| 20100322552 | OPTICAL CONNECTIONS AND METHODS OF FORMING OPTICAL CONNECTIONS - In one embodiment, a system comprises a plurality of electronic circuit boards and at least one optical fiber in optical communication with at least one circuit board of the plurality of electronic circuit boards, wherein at least one optical fiber comprises at least one core having at least one end surface, and wherein at least one end surface comprises a light dispersing geometry. | 12-23-2010 |
