Abstract: A wavelength measurement or monitoring system [700] provides [702] a tunable Fabry-Perot optical filter [202]. At least one known light source [302, 304]  is used [704] to calibrate and correlate separate wavelength bands [240, 242, 244] scanned by the tunable Fabry-5 Perot optical filter [202]. At least one wavelength reference [208, 402] is utilized [706] to calibrate at least one wavelength band [240, 242, 244] of the tunable Fabry-Perot optical filter [202]. The wavelength reference [208, 402] is transferred [708] to a wavelength band [240, 242, 244] that is identified for measurement when the wavelength reference [208, 402] is not in a wavelength band [240, 242, 244]  identified for measurement by the tunable 10 Fabry-Perot optical filter [202].  An unknown optical signal [404] is scanned [710] through the tunable Fabry-Perot optical filter [202]. The wavelengths in the unknown optical signal [404] are specified [712].

Patent CA-2635715-A1 (CA)
Inventor: LACH ELLIOT
IPC: A61H15/00

Abstract: A massage mechanism includes a housing containing substantially unidirectional roller components. The rollers are able to rotate in one direction, but either not easily or not at all in the opposite direction. Each roller of a total of two rollers is able to rotate in a direction that is opposite of the other roller. The effect of the described configuration is that as the roller massage device moves across a skin surface of a patient, a leading edge roller is able to roll, while a trailing edge roller is held stationary, or substantially stationary. The stationary roller on the trailing edge of the roller massage device pushes against the skin, generating a skin fold. The skin fold can be further generated and magnified by the provision of a vacuum pressure within a chamber of the roller massage device, suctioning the skin up into the device, working in conjunction with the rollers. In addition, an electromagnetic force can be applied to the skin fold.

Inventor: KREMMINGER PETER
IPC: C07C215/30
Filed: 2007-01-22
Abstract: This invention relates to processes and intermediates for the stereoselective alkylation of carbonyl groups. The invention in particular allows the stereoselective preparation of the antidepressant drug escitalopram. It has been found that boric or boronic acid derivatives are useful bridging elements for the attachment of a chiral group to a compound containing a carbonyl group to be alkylated. The said borates and boronates are thus useful in a process for the asymmetric alkylation of a carbonyl group in a compound containing a carbonyl group and an anchor group capable of reacting with a boric or boronic acid derivative. The asymmetric alkylation can be carried out by admixing the compound containing a carbonyl group to be alkylated and the anchor group capable of reacting with a boric or boronic acid derivative with a boric or boronic acid derivative, adding a chiral alcohol, and adding an organometallic compound. After the alkylation reaction, the borate and boronate can be easily removed by hydrolysis.

Abstract: A sliding door is secured to one side of a wall or partition panel having a door opening, and includes a trolley that is held in a track located above the door opening. The wheels or rollers of the trolley move along the track when the door is moved to a closed position until the roller contacts a wedge or ramp associated with the track. The wedge urges the roller inwardly toward the wall or partition panel, such that when the door is in the fully closed position, the trolley is positioned inwardly on the track to move the upper area of the door into engagement with the wall or partition panel. The lower end of the door includes a channel within which is positioned a follower attached to a swing arm, which simultaneously draws the lower end of the door into engagement with the wall or panel.

Abstract: A method of providing an investment product, and supporting administration system and annuity product. The product is an investment contract or agreement preferably of an annuity type, providing investment returns substantially mirroring the performance of an index and allowing an investor to begin receiving or deferring periodic payments on or after a predetermined date, at the election of the investor; if the investor elects to defer one or more payments, the investor may later elect to receive said one or more deferred payments, at a date of that entity's choosing, which will also start the delivery of periodic payments. During the deferral, the deferred payments earn a return tax-deferred (subject to currently enforceable tax laws). The investment return is preferably a function of an index but not less than zero, periodically (e.g., annually) locking in past gains and assuring against losses that can eliminate past periods' gains.
