The present invention relates to methods for hindering formation of tobacco-specific nitrosamines during processing of dark fire tobacco, as well as a facility in which at least portions of these methods may be conducted. According to the present invention, dark fire tobacco that has been harvested and that is generally green and/or yellow is exposed to an uncontrolled, yet active, ambient airflow so as to provide a substantially aerobic environment about the tobacco. This exposure of the dark fire tobacco to the ambient airflow may be done until the tobacco is substantially brown and/or substantially free of enzymatic activity. Subsequently, the tobacco is exposed to gaseous emissions (e.g., smoke) from combusting sawdust/wood. This step may be conducted at least until the tobacco exhibits a moisture content of no more than about 16% and/or until the tobacco exhibits a gloss or shine on a surface of the tobacco.

The plasma jet consists of at least one hollow electrode (1) of conductive or conductive and dielectric material with at least one element (14) locally increasing the density of electromagnetic energy inside the hollow electrode (1) and/or at its orifice and/or outside, which consists of a design element (12) and/or a physical element (17) acting in the transversal and/or the longitudinal direction with respect to the streaming working medium (5) and is further constituted by at least one source (3) or electromagnetic energy attached via the impedance adapting member (4) consisting of a system of regulatory transformation and transfer elements, onto the conductive part of the hollow electrode (1).

A video security system and method for monitoring active environments that detects a security-relevant breach of a virtual perimeter and can track a virtual perimeter breaching object to detect risk-relevant behavior of persons and objects such as loitering and parking, and provides fast and accurate alerts. The system is able to achieve advance alerts by monitoring an extended virtual perimeter. The image processing module of the system employs a deep learning neural network (DNN) for fast image processing. The system can further increase speed by reducing the image data that is being processed to data extracted from one or more reduced data sources including virtual perimeter zones, a delta of a series of image frames, and a representative image frame of a series of frames.

The present invention provides a bar code reader support stand that is portable and easy to set up in addition to being stable and not easily tipped. The support stand provides a reading surface on which to place a coded medium. The support stand further provides a securing area for mounting a bar code reader, such that said bar code reader is held at a predetermined and fixed distance and angle with respect to said reading surface. The fixed position and orientation of the bar code reader with respect to the reading surface allows for a consistently reliable reading of the coded medium. Installation and usage of the device can be more efficient since the user need not adjust the bar code reader orientation at the time of set-up, nor re-adjust it during the course of usage. The design of the weight-stabilised base allows the device to be set up and used in an active environment without the need to rigidly connect it to a table top by means of screws or bolts. The bar code reader stand according to the present invention may also include a protective structure for protecting the cable interconnected with the bar code reader. Said protective structure can provide protection for the cable itself as well as to the point of connection between said cable and the electronic device or bar code reader.

A stray asset can be an asset defined and configured by a configuration management system that is active in the computing environment and is consuming resources of the computing environment yet is not needed by active processes of the computing environment and is unneeded by other active environment assets. For each stray asset, at least one resolution action (e.g., alert action, containment action, delete action) can be performed.

The present disclosure provides a method, system, and device for security object synchronization at multiple nodes of an active-active environment. To illustrate, a source node may generate a corresponding security object sync request for each of multiple target nodes. The source node may send the security object sync request to the target nodes via a source queue and, for each target node, a corresponding distribution queue. A distribution queue may be closed based on an acknowledgement received from a corresponding target node, after a time period, or after a number of transmission attempts. A synchronization log may be maintained to indicate which security object sync requests have been delivered to which target nodes. In some implementations, the source node and the target nodes are part of an active-active environment that may be synchronized in time so the nodes resolve conflicts between received security object updates initiated from two different nodes.
