摘要： A consumer maintains control of certain personal information via the consumer's decision to create, store and offer a retailer conditional access to certain portions of the consumer's identifying information. The consumer is able to set individualized conditions of how access may be acquired and in view of what exchange or offers the consumer wishes to see from the retailer. Upon the retailer's agreement to such conditions, a retailer may be provided access to certain portions of the consumer's identifying information. The retailer and consumer may also enter into an electronic negotiation if there is initial disagreement as to preferred terms in order to adequately value and assess one another's offers in view of the exchange. In so doing, a retailer is able to gain information and characteristics of retail activity from the consumer, and a consumer is able to be rewarded from the retailer for the value of the information provided.

摘要翻译： 消费者通过消费者决定创建，存储和提供零售商有条件地访问消费者识别信息的某些部分来维持对某些个人信息的控制。 消费者能够设定如何获取访问权限的个性化条件，并考虑到消费者希望从零售商那里获得哪些交换或提供。 根据零售商对这些条件的协议，可以向零售商提供对消费者识别信息的某些部分的访问。 如果对于优先条款存在初步分歧，零售商和消费者也可以进行电子谈判，以便鉴于交换而充分评估和评估彼此的报价。 在这样做时，零售商能够从消费者那里获得零售活动的信息和特征，消费者能够从零售商那里获得所提供信息的价值。

摘要： A thermal metal spraying apparatus for use with a thermal metal spraying torch for applying a metal coating to a workpiece through a torch spraying nozzle having a spraying orifice. The thermal metal spraying apparatus provides a substantially tubular shroud having a first end and a second end adaptable to concentrically receive the torch spraying nozzle. The shroud has an opening at the second end, wherein the opening is selectably alignable with the spraying orifice. A drive mechanism is connected to the shroud and is operable to translate the shroud between a first position, wherein the opening at the second end is not aligned with the spraying orifice, thereby preventing the spraying of the metal coating on the workpiece, and a second position, wherein the opening at the second end is aligned with the spraying orifice permitting the spraying of the metal coating toward the workpiece.

摘要： A composition, a system and a method for making the composition and a system and a method for using the composition are provided. The composition, the system and the method for making the composition and the system and the method for using the composition are used to passively treat a solution. The composition is a mixture of a catalyst-altered water, a colloidal solution and a treated water. The composition is produced by mixing the catalyst-altered water, the colloidal solution and the treated water at room temperature. The composition, the system and the method for making the composition and the system and the method for using the composition have a sphere and/or a tube for housing the composition in an internal compartment of the sphere and/or the tube. Exposure of the solution to the composition and/or to an exterior surface of the sphere and/or the tube containing the composition raises a pH and/or an alkalinity of the solution and/or changes a structure of the solution.

摘要： A process of treating metal oxide nanoparticles that includes mixing metal oxide nanoparticles, a solvent, and a surface treatment agent that is preferably a silane or siloxane is described. The treated metal oxide nanoparticles are rendered hydrophobic by the surface treatment agent being surface attached thereto, and are preferably dispersed in a hydrophobic aromatic polymer binder of a charge transport layer of a photoreceptor, whereby π-π interactions can be formed between the organic moieties on the surface of the nanoparticles and the aromatic components of the binder polymer to achieve a stable dispersion of the nanoparticles in the polymer that is substantially free of large sized agglomerations.
