Abstract:
A method of making bacon styled sliced pork by cutting a layer of muscle and fat from an outer surface of a pork ham. After smoking and curing the layer, the layer is rolled out and cut into blocks. The blocks are then fed into a slicing machine to make slices of bacon style pork.
Abstract:
Various technologies and techniques are disclosed for providing a data warehouse test automation framework system. A data generation module is provided that is operable to generate data scenarios that ensure specific logic is being validated against a data warehouse. A data validation module is provided that has data validation blocks that provide a framework for validating data completeness and data integrity of a data warehouse. The data validation blocks are represented by query templates that provide specifications for how queries that perform the validating of the data completeness and the data integrity should be structured. Dimensions in the data warehouse are modeled using an object oriented programming syntax.
Abstract:
A method for detecting wave volatility involves an objective definition for trend development. A new labeling scheme for monitoring price movements in the market categorizes development and degree of trend automatically. A means for detecting degree of trend involves a novel use of a mathematical equation for detecting trend development by detecting distance retraces a portion of its peak to trough movement.
Abstract:
A slider is adapted for use with a reclosable fastener for bags containing material. The reclosable fastener includes a first track and a second track. The first track includes a first profile, while the second track includes a second profile. The first and second profiles are releasably engageable to each other. At least one of the first and second profiles has an interior portion. The slider comprises a body that includes a top, a first side, a second side and a separation member on an underside of the top. The separation member is adapted to open and close the fastener and includes a slider finger that extends generally downwardly from the top. The slider finger extends into an interior portion of the first profile so as to assist in removing material trapped in the interior portion of the first profile when closing the reclosable fastener.

Abstract:
Ultrasonic end stops and methods of making ultrasonic end stops are provided. The present invention relates to plastic reclosable fasteners with sliders for opening and closing the reclosable fasteners on plastic bags and the like and particularly to the use of protruding end stop structures on reclosable fasteners to prevent travel of sliders past the fastener ends. The end stop structures include at least one of high density polyethylene, lo medium density polyethylene, polypropylene, a cyclic olefin copolymer, a high density material, or a high modulus material and may optionally include low density polyethylene or linear low density polyethylene.
Abstract:
Packages with active agents are described. Generally, the disclosed packages have a pair of opposing body panels joined together along a pair of opposing sides and a bottom bridging the sides so as to define a mouth opposite the bottom, a reclosable fastener extending along the mouth, and an active agent. The reclosable fastener includes a pair of polymeric tracks, in which each of the tracks includes a mating element and a fin portion. The mating elements are releasably engageable to each other, and each of the fin portions extends downwards from the respective mating element towards the bottom of the reclosable package. The active agent is associated with at least one of the fin portions for communication with the interior of the reclosable package.
