The system, method, and apparatus of the present invention, address the problem of identity theft associated with the use of payment cards such as credit and debit cards, as well as identity theft associated with the use of identity cards such as driver's licenses and social security cards. An apparatus including a biometric input component that authenticates a system user is disclosed herein. Upon authentication, a proxy account number and a time varying security code are generated and displayed on the apparatus. The dynamically generated number and security code are then used to validate the user's identity within the system. Furthermore, the system, method, and apparatus of the present invention can be used to consolidate into one instrument, several payment and identity instruments.

The apertures are dimensioned for receiving wood screws therethrough for engaging the lower end of the wooden post. The closed lower end has a plurality of drainage apertures therethrough. The drainage apertures include a central aperture and four peripheral apertures. The collar is fabricated of plastic.

A method and apparatus for conditioning air through the removal of moisture from air to be conditioned comprising a first path for a first flow of air to be dehumidified, the first path having an input end and an output end with a first blower between the input end and the output end to effect the movement of air from the input end to the output end; a second path for a second flow of air, the second path being independent of the first path and adapted to remove moisture from the second flow of air, the second path being in a closed loop configuration with a second blower for continuously moving the second flow of air around the second path and with a plurality of temperature changing devices sequentially positioned in the second path including an air precooling device, a cooling condenser device for condensing moisture from the second flow of air, a reheating device coupled to the precooling device, and a heating device; and a desiccant wheel with a motor to rotate the wheel in a continuous path of travel through a first zone and a second zone, the first zone being in the first path of travel between the input end and the output end, the second zone being in the second path of travel between the heating device and the precooling device.

A universal modular external fixation system for immobilizing bone fragments in long bone fractures. The universal modular external fixation system includes a frame assembly comprising a plurality of pins designed to be coupled to various portions of a fractured bone. The external sections of the pins are fixated to a variety of different coupling devices designed to attach to a series of connecting bars along the length of the fractured bone. A plurality of connecting members interconnect the connecting bars thereby securing the pins and thus the bone sections to aid in proper healing of the fracture(s).

A shoulder support is fabricated of a light weight material. The shoulder support has a generally cylindrical front portion. The shoulder support has a connecting end and a rear portion. In this manner a generally triangular configuration is formed. The shoulder support has a central extent having a top end and a rear end with an intermediate portion. The rear portion has a concaved resting member. The resting member is adapted to rest against the front of a shoulder of a user. A coupling means is rotatable about a vertical axis and is adapted to couple the shoulder support to an end of a rifle.

A new and improved portable ergonomic cushion for relieving pressure on the coccyx (tailbone) and on the ischial tuberosities, for promoting correct positioning of the sacroiliac joint and for supporting the lower back of the user is described. The portable ergonomic cushion includes a narrow ridge back support allowing the cushion to be used with numerous styles of chairs and seats, and a lumbar support cushion that is removably attached to the back support. The portable ergonomic cushion may also make use of inflatable cushions for increasing the flexibility of the sitting cushion by allowing users to adjust the cushions to their desired support by varying the amount the cushions are inflated. The portable ergonomic cushion is also foldable into a compact non-use position for easy transportation and storage, and futher does not require the use of straps for retaining the cushion while in use.

A tool kit having at least one ratchet and at least two sets of sockets. Each ratchet having a first color coded indicia indicating the size of the driver on each particular ratchet. The first, and the second set of sockets having on each socket, the first color coded indicia indicating the size of the particular driver hole marked at the drive end of each socket, as well as, having the second color coded indicia for indicating the particular size and point configuration of the nut hole of the particular socket marked at the nut hole end of that particular socket.

A low Ni and high N austenitic-ferritic stainless steel is disclosed. It includes an austenitic-ferritic stainless steel having high formability and punch stretchability, crevice corrosion resistance, corrosion resistance at welded part, or excellent intergranular corrosion resistance, from a stainless steel structured by mainly austenite phase and ferrite phase, and consisting essentially of 0.2% or less C, 4% or less Si, 12% or less Mn, 0.1% or less P, 0.03% or less S, 15 to 35% Cr, 3% or less Ni, and 0.05 to 0.6% N, by mass, by adjusting the percentage of the austenite phase in a range from 10 to 85%, by volume. Furthermore, it includes an austenitic-ferritic stainless steel having higher formability by adjusting the amount of (C+N) in the austenite phase to a range from 0.16 to 2% by mass.

A first source of medical gas has a generally cylindrical male outlet with a cylindrical bore and a threaded outer cylindrical surface. A flexible cylindrical elastomeric medical gas tubing has an input end with a bushing making a flush abutment with the male outlet at the output orifice. An output end attaches to any of a plurality of medical gas utilizing devices, but preferably with a dampening disperser held in position in the space in the vicinity of a patient's nose and mouth. An annular flange of the input end bushing resides within a central cylindrical bored out region extending through the first end and nearly to the second end of a rotatable connector forming an interior surface of a connector with threads coupling with the threads of the male outlet. The second end is an annular abutment against the annular flange holding the input end tubing bushing against the outlet source and providing an airtight coupling. A gripping means is on the exterior surface of the connector.
