|Patent application number
|Fluid dispenser having infrared user sensor - A dispensing system is disclosed which utilizes a controller in conjunction with a photodetector in order to provide automatic dispensing to a user when an object enters a target area. A controller is programmed to pulse a light source that is mounted proximate the photodetector. The controller constantly monitors the voltage at the receiving signal of the photodetector, and evaluates the difference in voltage from the light pulsed on and off. The controller sums the differences, and constantly updates the differences over a designated period to create an average difference value. The average difference value is summed with a target offset value and compared to a momentary voltage difference. When the momentary difference exceeds the sum of the target offset value and average difference, the controller sends a signal to a dispense mechanism which dispenses a fluid or other product on the object.
|Method and device for indicating future need for product replacement of random use dispensing - A method is presented for indicating whether a dispensable product will require refilling prior to the next scheduled service interval. The inventive method includes tracking the amount of use over a first interval, calculating a frequency based from the use over the first interval; comparing the quantity remaining with the required amount, which is the product of the number of weeks in the service interval and the calculated frequency. Based on the usage, when the quantity remaining is less that the required amount, a warning will be provided to indicate that the dispensing product should be replaced, as it will be empty before the next service interval. A dispenser incorporating such method is also described.
|Dispensing system with magnet and coil for power generation - A dispensing system is presented for providing power generation from the actuation that occurs to provide product. The dispensing mechanism includes a plunger and magnet. The magnet is secured to the dispensing mechanism so that it moves with the plunger. Surrounding the dispensing mechanism is a housing that includes a coil. The coil is positioned such that as the pump is actuated, the magnet moves relative to the coil, generating power to the coil. The generated power that is produced can be applied to electronic devices that include, but are not limited to, light-emitting diodes and controllers.
|METHOD AND DEVICE FOR INDICATING FUTURE NEED FOR PRODUCT REPLACEMENT OF RANDOM-USE DISPENSING - A method and device for indicating whether a dispensable product will require refilling prior to the next scheduled service interval includes tracking the amount of use over a first interval, and calculating a frequency based from the use over the first interval. The quantity remaining is compared with the required amount, which is the product of the number of weeks in the service interval and the calculated frequency. Thus, when the quantity remaining is less that the required amount, a warning will be provided to indicate that the dispensing product should be replaced, as it will be empty before the next service interval.

The OpenFields library holds resources about oilseed crops, which are those grown primarily for the oil contained in the seeds. Typical sources of edible seed oils are soybeans, sunflowers, and rapeseed, whilst seed oils from flax (linseed) and castor beans are used for industrial purposes. Edible vegetable oils are used as directly as salad or cooking oils, or may be solidified (by the process of 'hydrogenation') to make margarine and shortening. These products often supplement or replace animal products such as butter and lard.
Industrial applications are based on the properties of particular fatty-acid components of these oils. Flaxseed oil, rich in linolenic acid, (an unsaturated fatty acid,) is a drying oil used in protective coatings (e.g. in paints and varnishes). Vegetable oils are used in putty, printing inks, erasers, coating or core oils, greases, plastics, etc.
The residue remaining after the oil has been extracted from oilseeds is an important source of nutrients for livestock. Oilseed meals from soybeans, peanuts, rapeseed and flaxseed are rich in protein; mixed with other ingredients (e.g., cereal grains,) they provide nutritionally balanced animal feeds.

How did a major architect of the Common Core, help to get the ball rolling in K-12 and then wind up leading the corporation that is the historical gatekeeper for colleges? This is not a statement about the value of the Common Core, or the SAT...rather it is a question about a grand plan that is swirling around us.

Newcomer spotlight: Jeff Baker hopes he's found stability in Miami
MAR 07, 2014 3:30p ET
JUPITER, Fla. -- Marlins utility player Jeff Baker has put together quite the uniform collection over the past two years.
A lifetime .267 hitter with 48 home runs and 199 RBI over nine seasons, Baker played for the Chicago Cubs, Detroit Tigers, Atlanta Braves and Texas Rangers during that span.
In 2013 with Texas, the 32-year-old hit .279 with 11 home runs and 21 RBI in just 175 at-bats. But he missed a month after sustaining a freak thumb injury on an exuberant high-five. He was batting .317 with nine home runs at the time.
Miami signed Baker, who can play the corner outfield positions as well as first, second and third base, to a two-year deal worth $3.7 million last month. He not only bolsters the bench but also provides another veteran presence to the young talent.
Through four spring training games, Baker is 4 for 11 (.364) with two runs and a .417 on-base percentage.
Occasionally, FOX Sports Florida will catch up with new faces in the Marlins clubhouse during spring training. Here's a closer look at Baker:
FOX SPORTS FLORIDA: What sort of role do you envision for yourself this season?
BAKER: I'm basically ready for anything and everything, and I'm comfortable with anything and everything whether it's just pinch-hitting, double-switching, giving skip an option off the bench late. Whether it's a platoon to help one guy out or someone gets hurt and you play a little more extended. Any of those I'm all in for. The biggest thing I've said in a utility role is that a fun year is a year you win and you get a chance to play well. However that works out, however skip wants to use me, I'm ready. Always be prepared, won't be surprised by many things.
FSF: You were traded to a few teams the past few years. Is it nice to have that two-year contract?
BAKER: Absolutely. You don't feel like you're the mercenary coming in there for one year, but at the same time I was fortunate the teams that did trade for me. I get they're winning organizations, winning teams that are close to playing in the playoffs. Coming over here for two years and seeing the young talent they have offensively and the pitchers and some of the veterans they have in the clubhouse... I think the mix is pretty dynamic. I don't think it's going to take as long as everybody thinks it's going to take.
FSF: Last year you had a minor-league contract with an invite to spring training. How humbling is that, how much does that force you to work harder?
BAKER: It's baseball. It's a business. I knew what happened. When I got traded from Chicago I was playing well. I got traded to Detroit and for the first time in my career I tried to reprove who I was with a new team, new league. I had never been in the American League. It kind of snowballed on me. I understood it. In baseball if you play well you get rewarded. If you don't play well you've got to go out there and earn it. I had no issues. Texas was actually really good. They were very honest and upfront saying, 'Come to spring training. If you play well you're going to make the team.' I took care of my business on the field and we were able to have a good year. It's a place I really enjoyed.
FSF: You became part of the list of fluke injuries for baseball players. Have you given a high-five since?
BAKER: (laughs) I give fist bumps. Every time I talk about it I really wish I could kill this teammate that was screwing around and jacked up my thumb. It was one of those things that was unfortunate. He was a little excited, a little immature in the situation. Unfortunately I missed a month. It was a lesson learned for him, a lesson learned for me. Wear a body suit in the dugout and be good to go.
FSF: With an injury like that, how much does it affect when you get back to hitting because you probably couldn't do much?
BAKER: For a month, just because (without) your thumb you can't swing the bat or do anything. I always like to think that as athletes we think we're ready sooner than we are. The rehab assignments -- we don't need them. The truth of it is -- you can look at the numbers -- I just didn't play well when I came back from the thumb injury. I was in a really good groove before I got hurt, and I was just battling to get that timing back. It's frustrating because you can't replicate game speed.
FSF: As a veteran, what's the best advice you can give these young guys you talked about earlier?
BAKER: The game's different now. These guys are so much more comfortable in a good way. They're more comfortable in the clubhouse. I think the older guys as a group invite them in. I think that's why you see a lot of younger guys when they come up have success right away. When I was coming up in the big leagues, the older guys weren't exactly too warm and fuzzy. I think it's one of those things just trying to be there for them every day. It's not, 'Do this or do that.' Just be there, listen to them, talk to them (and) ask how their day's going. When you're out on the field you're going to build that relationship off the field and hopefully they can turn to you.

ANKARA, Turkey (AP) -- Police on Tuesday used water cannons to break up a protest by hundreds of people who had gathered outside Turkey's Supreme Election Council building in support of the country's main opposition party, which is challenging local election results in the capital Ankara.
The Republican People's Party's candidate appears to have narrowly lost to Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan's ruling AKP party. It claims discrepancies between votes registered with the election board and the party's own ballot counts.
Hundreds of people shouted anti-government slogans and denounced alleged fraud before riot police moved in. Supporters of other political parties had joined the protest in a show of solidarity.
Erdogan's party swept Sunday's elections, winning some 45 percent of the votes, according to unofficial results. The AKP candidate for Ankara -- the incumbent mayor -- received 44.7 percent while the opposition got 43.8 percent.
The opposition candidate for Istanbul, also alleging irregularities, has called for a recount there too, although the AKP won by a large margin.

The Labour frontbencher who appeared to mock a house draped with England flags before the Rochester & Strood by-election was sacked by Ed Miliband after initially refusing to apologise, The Times understands. Mr Miliband spent yesterday trying to limit the fallout after Emily Thornberry tweeted a picture of the house with a white van parked outside and captioned it "Image from #Rochester". Despite a storm of protest, the shadow attorney-general told the Labour leader that she had done nothing wrong when he first called to confront her, and had to be instructed to apologise, senior sources said. Although Mr Miliband later dismissed her, the dispute put Labour, not the Tories, under the spotlight after Ukip's victory in the by-election. Nigel Farage's party described the incident as Mr Miliband's "Gillian Duffy" moment — a reference to Gordon Brown's clash with a voter he later called a "bigoted woman" on the 2010 campaign trail — and said it would speed the collapse of Labour's support in traditional working-class areas. The row helped David Cameron to make light of the loss of a seat that the Conservatives won in 2010 with almost 50 per cent of the vote and which he had said he was "absolutely determined" to hold after the defection of Mark Reckless. Mr Reckless held the seat for Ukip with 42 per cent of the vote, seven points ahead of the Tories. Labour came third and the Greens beat the Liberal Democrats int
John Cantlie has called the government's refusal to negotiate with Islamic State for his release from "ultimate betrayal" in one of the last videos in his Isis propaganda series. Mr Cantlie said he had long accepted that his death was inevitable and said he was "angry", in what appeared to be an impassioned plea for the British public to force the government. In the sixth episode of a planned eight, he also spoke of the failed rescue attempt spearheaded by US forces on Independence Day in June and criticised Britain and America for choosing a military response. Mr Cantlie, who turned 44 earlier this month, disappeared two years ago today and has become a high-profile figure in the Isis propaganda machine after watching fellow hostages either freed after ransom payments or savagely beheaded. "Long ago I accepted that my fate will overwhelmingly likel
Faults hit the emergency services' non-emergency 101 and 111 numbers today - with people asked to visit local police stations to report minor incidents in affected areas or use websites. The problems was felt across the UK, but both numbers were operating by about 1pm. The 999 number continued to work through the problems, but the Metropolitan Police advised people only to use that in an emergency. Humberside Police tweeted: "We can confirm that 101 is not working nationally. Fault lies with some kit in Birmingham which is being worked on." NHS Scotland tweeted: "111 phone service having technical problems across UK this morning. In Scotland NHS 24 available via 08454 242424 for those needing help."

Stock Pose where a character, usually a guy, proclaims something he is determined to accomplish, or to express pride, where he holds up his fist to his shoulder, palm facing inward, and the fist might even shake a little. The girly version of this has the fist bent outwards while the fist still faces inward, a variation is to pump one hand all the way up with one hand doing a downward pump as if stretching. This is called "Guts Pose" (Gatsu Pozu) in Wasei Eigo, which was apparently coined by Guts Ishimatsu. Being Hot-Blooded or a Genki Girl will of course make this pose more likely. It can be accompanied by shouting Big "YES!". This is so common, that it's spoofed as often as it's played straight. Some parodies even have the guy crying Manly Tears of pride. Do not confuse with the Handshake Substitute "Fist Bump". Compare Fist of Rage, Angry Fist-Shake or Milking the Giant Cow.

While there have been some speculations about the two of them engaging in a feud, there are currently no plans for CM Punk and Daniel Bryan to work against one another in a program from now until Wrestlemania 30.
The current plans for Big E Langston has him working a big match against Mark Henry at the Royal Rumble. The two will be selling a mentor and pupil story line on episodes of Monday Night Raw first.
It appears that Daniel Bryan will be moved into a feud with Bray Wyatt soon, as WWE has already scheduled them to work together on live events as practice.
Word going around is that despite doing the tease between John Cena and Randy Orton at the end of the Survivor Series last night, the two of them are not expected to feud until Wrestlemania.
Prior to forming the massively popular British Bulldogs tag team, Dynamite Kid and Davey Boy Smith were booked in a long feud in both Canada and Japan.
There's talks that WWE could use Ryback in a feud with Rey Mysterio to put over the popular masked performer in his return feud.
Despite the tease on Monday Night Raw this week, the Wyatt Family and the Shield are not expected to feud any time soon. Some within WWE are wanting to save that program for Wrestlemania 30.
When Barbarian and Warlord left the NWA while in the midst of a high profile feud against the Road Warriors, a lot of people were puzzled. It was later discovered that the Powers of Pain had backstage heat with the company because they did not want to work a series of scaffold matches.
During the 1970s, the King of Tonga chose five teenagers to go study sumo in Japan. One of the lucky ones was Sione Vailahi, who would someday become known as the Barbarian in the NWA and WWE. The training would provide him a little boost as a professional wrestler.

Baby is a playful, blue-point Ragdoll. He loves to be played with and brushed, and enjoys following you from room to room to stay in your company, but he is not a lap cat. He's 11 years old, but does not act his age. His right ear flops over after undergoing surgery to remove a hematoma about 5 years ago. He has no other known health issues. I have all paperwork from his breeder. My husband hates cats, so I need to find a new home for Baby. We're also unsure how Baby will interact with our 5 month old son as he learns to be more mobile.

Day 2 is in the can, leaving us with some memorable keynotes and huge product unveils. Day 3 is underway and promises to be equally astounding and full of news. Without further ado, here's your Dreamforce news brief, with links for reading below.
Hillary Clinton attacks the Word Gap – Literacy for all
Modern technology has connected us in unprecedented ways. Social media, and mobile phones tie distant people, businesses and education together. But it's no replacement for good old fashioned face to face interaction.
This was the message from the former First Lady during her keynote address Tuesday at Dreamforce 2014. Clinton lamented that low income children are in dire need of better and more enriched interpersonal communication in this digital age. The reason, they are exposed to fewer words, fewer books.
She also advocated net neutrality and philanthropy – and brushed off sneaky questions about her potential run for the big seat in 2016.
Big Data like you never seen
As over 140,000 people streamed the Live Show leading up to CEO Marc Benioff's keynote for the night, you couldn't help think you were watching an enormous music concert – with the most eclectic line up imaginable. Starting with some peace-vibe inducing hula music, and blasting to the next level with the Beach Boys in full falsetto glory, Benioff sure knew how to make an intro.
But if you thought Beach Boys and Hawaii tunes were just eclectic music choices, you are wrong.
They were subtle nods to the big announcement of the night. Benioff finally officialy introduced the Salesforce Analytics Cloud, known as Wave. Even though details were leaked previously, Benioff and team gave an impressive demo of the next generation platform, which aims to make analytics accessible by all, with awesome mobile utility, animation and a "gamification" feeling.
Analytics nerds everywhere had to wipe the drool from their keyboards. Or so I imagine.
What you can't miss today
Today will be equally exciting, and a little more musical.
Will.i.am and Neil Young both have two separate announcements. Neil Young's is sure to be a gem, when he launches Pono, the high-fidelity digital music player, which he funded with a massively successful Kickstarter. Will.i.am will break into the wearables scene with his own keynote later in the evening.
Silicon Valley investor guru Marc Andreesen will hold the floor from 3pm to 4pm San Francisco time. And of course break out sessions will continue throughout the day and parties late into the next.
Keep checking back in at this Hub for party news, detailed Keynote coverage and more We're on twitter with #DF14S, #DF14 and #FrontRow

Cuba crushes China 12-0 at World Baseball Classic
Jose Abreu hit a grand slam to help Cuba clobber China 12-0 Monday and ensure that it would advance to the second round of the World Baseball Classic.
AP Sports Writer
Jose Abreu hit a grand slam to help Cuba clobber China 12-0 Monday and ensure that it would advance to the second round of the World Baseball Classic.
The Cuban infielder drove in five runs and the game at the Fukuoka Dome was called under the tournament's mercy rule after the seventh inning. Throughout the game, Cuba displayed the type of firepower that makes it one of the title contenders.
"We're very happy to have two wins from two games," Cuba manager Victor Mesa said. "But we are not 100 percent yet, we have some minor issues and I feel we are lacking something but we are happy to be 2-0."
Alexei Bell hit a towering two-run homer to left to make it 4-0 in the fourth and Alfredo Despaigne put the result beyond doubt in the same inning when he doubled on a sharp ground ball to left, scoring Jose Fernandez and Frederich Cepeda to make it 6-0.
Fernandez singled in two more runs in the fifth before Abreu's grand slam.
"We knew it was going to be a difficult game because Cuba is so good," China manager John McLaren said. "They are so powerful and we had limited pitching today. I see a lot of major league talent on that Cuban team."
Cuba starter Danny Betancourt struck out eight and gave up only one hit in 4 2-3 innings. China starter Li Xin gave up five runs on eight hits over 3-1-3 innings to take the loss.
Cuba next faces Japan on Wednesday. Cuba's win also means that Japan advances to the March 8-12 second round at Tokyo Dome. Bell said it will be a lot tougher to score runs against Japan's solid pitching staff.
"Japan is always competitive," Bell said. "Their pitching is at a very high level so it will be a lot tougher to hit against them."
