A capsule designed for insertion in a centrifugal beverage production device for preparing a beverage from a substance contained in the capsule by introducing liquid in the capsule and passing liquid through the substance using centrifugal forces. The capsule has a body with bottom and open ends that are spaced apart in the axial direction, an upper wall for covering the body at its open end along a direction transverse to the axial direction, and an enclosure between the body and upper wall containing a predetermined amount of beverage substance. The capsule also includes an annular pressure-setting ring configured for adjusting the backpressure in the beverage production device. The pressure-setting ring provides improved quality of in-cup coffee.

A folding exercise rowing or sculling machine has left and right fold-down oar assemblies, each formed of an arm hinged to the side of the frame, and a pivot at the end of the arm on which the oar and oarlock are mounted. A cam plate at a lower end of the pivot pulls a cable that drives the sprocket wheel of a flywheel mounted to the rear or proximal of the frame. The oar assemblies fold to rearward, with the cam wheels fitting in a space between the flywheel and the frame. Multiplier pulley assemblies couple the power cable and elastic cords to a drive chain that is wound around the sprocket.

A capsule for preparing a beverage or liquid food from a substance in a centrifugal brewing unit by passing water through the substance contained in the capsule by using brewing centrifugal forces. The capsule has an enclosure containing a predetermined dose of the substance and a construction which opens under the effect of the centrifugal forces to allow the brewed liquid to leave the capsule. The capsule may also include a mechanism for engaging the capsule to an external rotational drive of the centrifugal brewing unit wherein the engaging mechanism is configured to offer resistance to torque during rotation of the capsule for maintaining the capsule in a reference rotational position.

Provided are a mask pattern including a silicon-containing self-assembled molecular layer, a method of forming the same, and a method of fabricating a semiconductor device. The mask pattern includes a resist pattern formed on a semiconductor substrate and the self-assembled molecular layer formed on the resist pattern. The self-assembled molecular layer has a silica network formed by a sol-gel reaction. To form the mask pattern, first, the resist pattern is formed with openings on an underlayer covering the substrate to expose the underlayer to a first width. Then, the self-assembled molecular layer is selectively formed only on a surface of the resist pattern to expose the underlayer to a second width smaller than the first width. The underlayer is etched by using the resist pattern and the self-assembled molecular layer as an etching mask to obtain a fine pattern.

A water activated adhesive system is described that is particularly suited for applying non-paper polymeric labels to surfaces which have low moisture permeability. The adhesive system is characterized by a dry non-tacky surface that becomes tacky in less than one second when contacted with a water-based activator. While it is a water activated adhesive, it is also characterized after aging bonded to a substrate by resistance to adhesive failure during 72 hours of immersion in ice/water mixture. The adhesive is beneficial to allow use of existing paper labeling equipment with polymeric labels.

The present disclosure describes a method of inhibiting film or skin formation on exposed interior surfaces of containers of waterborne coating products without substantial contribution to volatile organic content of the coating composition, and describes the article with the coating composition having a reduced tendency for film or skin formation. The method involves applying to the coating composition in the container an aqueous mixture, comprising at least one surfactant with oxyalkylene moieties wherein the surfactant is essentially non-volatile and present in about up to 60 weight percent of the mixture. The article is a lidded container having the coating composition with a float on the composition's surface that is closest to the headspace within the container.

A spark plug having a multilayer firing tip that minimizes the amount of precious metal used and a method of assembling a spark plug with a multilayer firing tip. The firing tip includes a discharge end and a weld end, with the weld end being connected to a center electrode, and more specifically to a base electrode on the center electrode. The weld end has a coefficient of thermal expansion, which is not between the values for the coefficients of thermal expansion for the discharge end and the base electrode. More specifically, the weld end has a coefficient of thermal expansion which is greater than the coefficients of thermal expansion for the discharge end and base electrode. The weld end is formed from Nickel and Chromium with a limited amount of additional elements. The spark plug is assembled by providing a first elongated material formed from the material used for the discharge end and a second elongated material formed from a material used for the weld end. The two materials are then joined to form a single joined material and are severed to create a firing tip. The firing tip is welded to the center electrode of the spark plug and more specifically, the base electrode.

A flexible skateboard may include a pair of direction casters mounted for steering rotation on a twistable one piece skateboard. A center section may be made sufficiently narrower than outboard foot support areas so that the board may be twisted by a rider to add energy for rolling motion to wheels in the casters. The center section may also be made sufficiently resistant to bowing and twist so that the skateboard may be ridden as a conventional, non-flexible skateboard. Wells may be provided to resist twisting and provide gripping surfaces on the board for the rider's feet.
