Abstract:
A network includes a web site of an intermediary and web sites of respective product/service providers. A customer accesses a product/service provider web site, initiates a purchase transaction, and transmits body scan data to the product/service provider. The body scan data is generated by a third party having a body measurement system, but is owned and kept by the customer. Each product/service provider web site is configured to conduct a sales transaction with a customer in response to receiving body scan data from the customer, and to request a decryption key from the intermediary for decrypting the body scan data. Using information in the decryption key request, the intermediary identifies both who generated the body scan data and who the product/service provider is. The intermediary then pays revenues to the various third party body scan sites according to a predetermined formula and/or business arrangement.
Abstract:
A reciprocating saw has a tooth form that decreases the cutting time of the saw blade and extends the life of the saw blade. The tooth height is longer than conventional metal cutting reciprocating saws. Also, the tooth form has a larger gullet. The tooth rake angle remains substantially constant during the life of the saw blade.

Abstract:
A garment-model computer simulation is provided that has a model portion and a garment portion. The model portion has a first layer and a second layer. The garment portion has a third layer. The first and third layers are organized with the second layer. The garment portion has an adjustable periphery that, when adjusted, distorts a node spacing within each of the first, second, and third layers.

Abstract:
A method (10) for generating an integrated garment-model simulation (12) is provided. The method (10) includes scanning a human fit model to acquire first shape data (20) representative of a portion of the human fit model; defining a three-dimensional surfac simulation based on the first shape data (20); combining the surface simulation (24) with medical data (26) to define a model simulatio (12); acquiring second shape data (30) and material property data (38) representative of a sample garment (32); defining a garment simulation (28) based on the second shape data (30) and the material property data (38); and combining the garment simulation with th model simulation (28) to generate the integrated garment-model simulation (12).
