Abstract: Apparatuses and methods for controlling a medical device delivery assembly are provided. The apparatus can comprise a first engagement device and a coupling mechanism. The first engagement device can be used to engage a first component. The coupling mechanism can have a port and at least one wing. The at least one wing can be disposed adjacent to the port and be configured to facilitate interconnection of the first engagement device with the coupling mechanism.

Abstract: A combination chopstick utensil may comprise a first chopstick member and a second chopstick member. A base may be coupled to each of the first and second chopstick members; wherein the base may include a first transition member. The base may also include a second transition member, wherein the second transition member may be coupled to the first transition member along an interior edge. The first and second transition members may be selectably coupleable. The base may further include a separation facilitation structure between the first and second transition members and configured to facilitate separation of the first and second transition members. The separation facilitation structure may include a groove between the first and second transition members. The combination chopstick utensil may also include a utensil coupled to the base and extending therefrom substantially opposite of the first and second chopstick members.

Abstract: An electrical apparatus has an aperture block either retractably mounted or detachably mounted thereto. The aperture block has an aperture extending therethrough. The first end of a contact wire is disposed within the aperture while the opposed second end of the contact wire is coupled to the internal circuitry of the electrical apparatus. The aperture has a configuration complementary to the transverse cross section of a physical/electrical media plug. The media plug includes a contact block having a slot formed in the end that leads to a metal contact. As the media plug is inserted into the aperture, the first end of the contract wire is biased against the metal contact forming electrical connection between the media plug and the electrical apparatus. The aperture is also configured with grooves that releasably capture a flexible retention clip mounted on the pin block, thereby enabling mechanical engagement between the media plug and the aperture block.

Abstract: A device for clamping the wires of a string of decorative lights to Christmas tree branches is formed of a wholly integral length of flexible, but normally shape-retaining material doubled back on itself from opposite ends thereof at opposite sides of a diagonally oriented, substantially central part of the length of material to provide oppositely directed, open loop clamping portions whose openings are at respective opposite sides of but at the central part of the length of material. The flexible material is such that an opening to an open loop can expand to accept branches to be received and held in a clamping loop along with light string wires and can be rotated to open the opening when release of a branch is desired. A loop of the device is selected for clamping to a branch leaving the other loop to serve as a handle for manipulating the device and thereafter free for receiving a Christmas tree decoration.

Abstract: A communications card cap of being mounted in electrical communication with a laptop computer has formed therethrough an aperture so sized and shaped as to be capable of receiving a physical/electrical media connector. In use, a media connector is inserted directly into the aperture in the communications card, the aperture being in contact with a plurality of contact wires fixed within the communications card. The communications card is divided into a retractable access portion of the communications card which can be directly accessed by manipulating an actuating mechanism releasing a retention means thereby allowing a spring to push the retractable access portion of the card outside of the computer housing. The retractable access portion of the communications card may be reinserted back into the computer housing to be carried internally when not in use.
