Inventor Alleyne developed this clever innovation, which is a specialized device that easily removes thumbtacks from bulletin boards and securely retains them as to prevent them from falling onto the floor. The device has a handgrip on one end and an adapted slot with an angled projection to slide under the head of a thumbtack on the other end.
Tidewater Blue is a sending unit for marine fuel tanks that gives accurate fuel level readings under any water/weather condition and will tell the operator if water is in the tank before the engine is started. With the introduction of ethanol fuels a few years ago, water has become a major problem in the marine industry.
Electrical and Thermal Characteristic of Biological Tissue Modeling (ETCBM™)
Abstract:
Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) is a nonsurgical medical procedure used for treatment of cardiac disorders such as arrhythmia or destruction of cancerous tumors in lung, kidney, breast, liver or any other dysfunctional tissue diseases. RFA is also used for treatment of varicose veins,
We are currently marooned on Earth, making scant progress on cost effective ways to reach Low Earth Orbit. President Obama's new space policy may be paraphrased as "No more Buck Rogers until we get the cost down, so get cracking." Albert Einstein showed us the way: "If at first the idea is not absurd,
The Tooth Fairy™ is a patent-pending appliance (20040118427 Palfy et al., 2002) for use by the millions who wear retainers, dentures, plates and sports mouth guards and require improved oral hygiene. Hand brushing is messy and of limited utility, while effervescing tablet soaks are expensive, sanitize poorly and leave an unpleasant long-lasting aftertaste.
Description:
The Tooth-Mover is not intended to replace braces. It is only intended to give slight adjustments to the visible teeth. It is built into a modified silicone mouth guard. When worn, the user chews on the mouthguard. This motion pivots a pair of steel arcs that move a pushrod to apply gentle pressure on the forward teeth.
It’s been a long time since anything really new has been developed that improves the way we operate our computers. Pretty colors and soft-touch surfaces hardly qualify as innovation. It’s time we moved beyond the old puck-style mouse.
TourEngine™ is a patented split-cycle combustion engine with substantial efficiency gain and reduction in noxious emissions over common engines. Measurements from a running gasoline-based prototype, developed by Tour Engine Inc. (www.tourengine.com), and simulations done by independent consultants predict the performance leap.
A jackknife occurs when a truck and the trailer it is carrying, begin sliding in a rotating motion with respect to one another as the tractor and trailer fold up against one another. Although jackknifes occur most often on slippery roads, they can occur at any time due to over-braking, overly sharp turning, or over-accelerating.
15 years ago, a friend was teaching a class in “Air Brush Usage” and I had some free time, so he let me sit in. I bought a nice “Air Brush” for about /$50 on sale. But, this is all about the hardest part, of using an air brush, by a new user, holding it the “Right” distance,
