Patent CA-2605586-A1 (CA)
Title: Cosmetic composition for combating cutaneous consequences of pollution
Inventor: COURTIN OLIVIER
IPC: A61Q19/08
Filed: 2006-04-21
Abstract: The invention relates to the use of the extracts of plants of the genus Lapsana and of the species Lapsana communis L (Asteraceae) in particular. Said extracts are preferably obtained by maceration in a hydroglycolic mixture, and are used in cosmetic or dermopharmaceutical preparations for their skin-protective and radical-resistant properties. The actions of such preparations produce anti-ageing and anti-wrinkle effects, and protect the basic constituents of the cutaneous structure from the harsh effects of oxygen free radicals while prolonging the skin's suppleness and protective function. Said compositions supply protective cellular action against the deleterious effects of free radicals and those of enzymes such as elastase and hyaluronidase.

Title: Method and apparatus for performing the register functions for a plurality of metering devices at a common node
Inventor: OUELLETTE MAURICE JOSEPH
IPC: G01R21/133
Filed: 1997-04-14
Abstract: A method and apparatus of the present invention includes a common node of a power line communications system for individually performing the register functions for a plurality of electrical metering devices operably connected to the node. The power line communications system includes at least one node having a plurality of registers, a respective one of which is associated with a respective electrical metering device. The electrical metering devices connected via the power lines to the node measure the power consumption of the electrical load associated therewith and transmit a signal indicative of the measured power consumption to the node and, in particular, to the respective register of the node associated with the electrical metering device. The node individually determines the power consumed by each electrical load operably connected to the node based upon the received signals. The results of such calculations are stored in the register associated with each respective electrical metering device. The stored results are also periodically transmitted to the system control center of the power line communications system. Thus, the register functions for a plurality of relatively simple electrical metering devices may be centralized at a common node.

Abstract: An apparatus for measuring the effective flow area of a pneumatic restriction, such as a pressure vessel which is to be tested, a pneumatic proximity sensor which is used to measure a distance, or a machine part which is fitted into a gauging device.  The apparatus employs a pneumatic bridge arrangement with two branches, a measurement branch and a reference branch. The restriction is connected to the end of the reference branch and substantially the same amount of air that escapes to the atmosphere from the restriction is discharged by the apparatus from the measurement branch to the atmosphere through an inexpensive air flow meter operating at substantially atmospheric pressure.  The resulting air flow measurement varies in a substantially linear way with the effective flow area of the restriction when the pressure upstream of the restriction is maintained at a constant value.

Patent CA-2643380-A1 (CA)
Inventor: BRIDGES JACK E
IPC: E21B36/02
Filed: 2007-02-21
Abstract: The vast North American oil shale and tar sand deposits offer the potential to make USA energy independent. However, if these deposits were produced by the existing combustion processes, substantial CO2 emissions would be injected in to air. To avoid this green house gas problem and yet produce liquid fuels, an electro-thermal energy storage system that may be wind-powered is described. It stores the unpredictable, intermittent (e.g., wind) electrical energy over long periods as thermal energy in fossil hydrocarbon deposits. Because the thermal diffusion time is very slow in such deposits, the thermal energy is effectively trapped in a defined section of a hydrocarbon deposit. This allows time for the thermal energy to convert hydrocarbons into gaseous and liquid fuels. It can also use a portion of the fuel to regenerate electrical power into the electrical grid of higher energy content than was initially stored. In addition, the method can increase the reliability of the grid and provide a load leveling function.
