Granted: 2005-09-20
Abstract: A video game system including a video game machine and a controller connected thereto, wherein the game machine is further connected with a display device. A video-game memory medium, detachably attached to the game machine, generates image data for displaying a player object, a plurality of courses, and objects other than the player object. A player chooses a course of play by operating the controller. A score-giving condition is detected according to a relation of the player object to another object. Depending on the detection, a first score is counted for the course. When the player object comes under a condition satisfying a course clear, the first score is memorized in a score-register area of a RAM. If the user chooses to play a same course, an initial value is written to the score-register area.

Title: Apparatus for simultaneous illumination of teeth
Inventor: CIPOLLA ANTHONY J
IPC: A61C19/06
Filed: 2000-10-06
Granted: 2010-12-07
Abstract: An arrangement, for use in whitening a pa-tient's teeth includes an arched surface (15) and an array of light-generating devices (56, 57), for example, light emitting diodes positioned on the arched surface. The light-generat-ing devices are arranged to form a relatively uniform field of light in a particular range of wavelengths, and further ar-ranged to focus the generated light in an overlapping man-ner onto a patient's teeth (71, 73) when the mouthpiece is properly positioned relative to the patient's face. The proper positioning is aided by a number of light sources, in the visi-ble range, that shine on the patient's face in a predetermined manner when the mouthpiece is properly positioned. To re-move whatever heat is generated at the surface of the pa-tient's teeth in the course of the procedure, the mouthpiece includes air passages between the light emitting devices, and a fan that draws air away from the patient's face.

Granted: 2009-10-20
Abstract: The use of sub-micron particles (nano-particles) and carboxylates for improving the heat-exchange characteristics of heat-transfer fluids or antifreeze coolants. The carboxylates form a stable physisorbed- or chemisorbed carboxylate protective layer on metallic nano-particles that doe s not hinder heat-transfer. The combination of carboxylates and metallic nano- particles provide excellent corrosion protection, improved heat-transfer and enhances the stability of the sub-micron particles (nano-particles) in suspension. Sub-micron particles (nano-particles) treated with carboxylates to form a chemisorbed carboxylate protective layer are used in a heat transfer fluid or a lubricant or hydraulic fluid or soap.
