Abstract: Automated in-situ instrumentation has been developed for sensitive, precise and accurate measurements of a variety of analytes in natural waters In this work we describe the use of 'SEAS' (Spectrophotometry Elemental Analysis System) instrumentation for measurements of solution pH SEAS-pH incorporates a CCD-based spectrophotometer, an incandescent light source, and dual pumps for mixing natural water samples with a sulfonephthalein indicator The SEAS-pH  optical cell consists of either a liquid core waveguide (LCW, Teflon AF 2400) or custom-made PEEK tubing Long optical pathlengths allow use of indicators at low concentrations, thereby precluding indicator- induced pH perturbations Laboratory experiments show that pH measurements obtained using LCW and PEEK  optical cells are indistinguishable from measurements obtained using conventional spectrophotometric cells and high-performance spectrophotometers Deployments in the Equatorial Pacific and the Gulf of Mexico demonstrate that the SEAS-pH instrument is capable of obtaining vertical pH profiles with high spatial resolution SEAS-pH deployments at a fixed river-site (Hillsborough River, FL) demonstrate the capability of SEAS for observations of diel pH  cycles with high temporal resolution The in-situ precision of SEAS-pH is better than 0 002 pH units, and the system's measurement frequency is approximately 0 5 Hz This work indicates that in-situ instrumentation can be used to provide unique capabilities for observations of carbon-system transformations in the natural environment.

Title: Systeme de transport de personnes equipe d'un moyeu de roue
Inventor: KITCHEN WILLIAM J
IPC: A63G7/00
Filed: 2006-05-18
Abstract: Selon l'invention, un ensemble de rails est constitué de trois éléments cylindriques parallèles, un premier rail servant à supporter une grande roue. Un essieu sort de chaque côté de cette roue, un cadre étant fixé à l'essieu sur le côté extérieur et un siège étant fixé à ce cadre. L'essieu côté rail est relié à un deuxième rail assurant un rôle de pilote/guide pour le déplacement de la grande roue. Un troisième rail et des interconnexions procurent à l'ensemble de rails une rigidité structurelle. Avec cette configuration de montagnes russes, les personnes sont transportées assises uniquement dans un siège et se trouvent directement face à l'environnement défilant à grande vitesse, ce qui leur procure une sensation de vol libre. Dans un mode de réalisation à système de transfert, un moteur est ajouté à la roue pour déplacer celle-ci le long d'un circuit relativement plat. Un moyen de basculement optionnel sert à mettre en prise l'essieu de façon sélective avec la grande roue en rotation (essentiellement par l'intermédiaire d'un engrenage réducteur) pour faire basculer les personnes à 360°. Plusieurs grandes roues peuvent être éventuellement accouplées pour former un train.

Inventor: CROWDER ROBERT W JR
IPC: G07F17/32
Filed: 2008-04-23
Abstract: Disclosed is a system and method that uses digital signature technology to authenticate the contents of one or more manifests located on a storage device. Each manifest contains a list of file records, where each record contains the name of a file stored on the storage device, and a signature value derived from the contents of the file. At boot time, the gaming machine first authenticates the contents of the manifest and then authenticates the contents of the files using the signature value stored in the manifest. Files are verified using the signature, as they are needed, during the boot up of the operating system and throughout normal operation. This method reduces the boot time of the gaming machine and eliminates the need to check digital signatures for each individual file or over the entire contents of a non-secure media.   Similarly, a method of adding authentication ability to legacy software components without necessarily altering the legacy software components is disclosed.  Introduction of a stronger authentication algorithm, or when a private key has been compromised would normally require the software component to be re-built to support the new algorithm or private/public key pair; however, a method is disclosed where algorithms and key pairs may be changed and applied to legacy software without having to re-built, re-test, re-sign, or re--submit the component to regulatory agencies for approval. Also disclosed is a system and method of establishing a trusted environment containing a gaming operating system and associated authentication module, file system drivers, and/or network drivers that may be used to in the process of authenticating contents of one or more manifests located on a storage device.
