Various apparatus and associated methods involve a light source that provides light at wavelengths that substantially correlate to local maxima in the spectral sensitivity of a diurnal avian. In an illustrative example, the light source may output light primarily in wavelength bands that are not substantially absorbed by colored oil droplets and/or visual pigment in at least one type of cone in the eye of a diurnal avian. In some embodiments, the light source may include a light-emitting diode (LED) light source. Exemplary light sources may output spectral components to illuminate diurnal avians with local maxima of intensity at wavelengths that substantially correspond to local maxima in a spectral sensitivity visual response characteristic of the diurnal avians.

A radially expansible annular stent is disclosed. The stent comprises a plurality of stenting turns around a lumen centred on a longitudinal axis. Adjacent turns of the stent are joined by connector struts. The stent annulus has a wall thickness related to the material from which it is formed. The radial thickness of the connector struts is smaller than that of the stent annulus. A method of making such a stent is also disclosed. The method includes cutting the connector struts from a tubular workpiece with a laser beam. The laser beam is aimed so as to be offset from a longitudinal axis of the workpiece to provide the reduced radial thickness of the connector struts.

An image forming device in which the toner density of a two-component developing device can be stably controlled in printing a one-page image and the frequency of interruption of even printing a series of pages can be decreased as less as possible. The number of pixels of the image relevant to the development counted during the printing and the toner consumption is estimated from other image information, and the amount of toner corresponding to the consumption is supplemented. In this supplement, the count is acquired at an intermediate time of the one-page printing, the toner consumption is estimated, and the toner is supplemented during the printing after the intermediate time. Thereby, toner supplement can be performed ahead of its schedule, and a variation of the toner density can be prevented correspondingly.
