Antimicrobial compositions and methods
Antimicrobial compositions, especially those useful when applied topically, particularly to mucosal tissues (i.e., mucous membranes), including, in particular, an antimicrobial lipid component, such as a fatty acid ester, fatty ether, or alkoxide derivative thereof. The compositions can also include an enhancer component, a surfactant, a hydrophobic component, and / or a hydrophilic component. Such compositions provide effective topical antimicrobial activity and are accordingly useful in the treatment and / or prevention of conditions that are caused, or aggravated by, microorganisms (including viruses).

Technique to enable support for symbolic link access by windows clients
ActiveUS6968345B1Solve problemsEnhanced levelData processing applicationsMultiple digital computer combinationsDistributed File SystemSymbolic link
A widelink directive provides an enhanced level of indirection with respect to a resource, such as a unit of storage, attached to a destination, such as a storage system. The widelink has a scope of indirection that is “wider” than a conventional symbolic link (“symlink”). The novel widelink directive is similar to the distributed file system (DFS) facility that allows DFS-enabled common internet file system clients to resolve uniform naming convention paths to locations that may or may not be on an original storage system, such as a multi-protocol filer, or original protocol server of the filer. By taking advantage of clients that support the DFS facility, the widelink directive is quite flexible in that it can be used to resolve symlinks that “leave” a share.

BigFoot Mobility Device End Tip
A pseudo-frustoconical shaped unitary rubber end unit for an ambulatory device, such as a cane, comprising, a bottom hexagonal base and a top circular rim, wherein said base is about four times the diameter of said rim and functions to provide significantly enhanced support and stability; and a central cylindrical “socket” created by six deeply recessed side walls and a resultant six member rib-like frame that functions to optimize device's shock absorption capabilities and forward propulsion of the user. The hexagonal base may be asymmetrical or symmetrical, and the ribs may be of uniform or non-uniform dimensions. The hexagonal base and the rib-like frame act synergistically to compress and rebound under loads creating a twisting “spring assist” action that both absorbs shock and helps propel users forward. The broad base has a slightly recessed underside permitting the mobility device to be self-standing.
