Abstract: A transfer mechanism for transferring food product from a compartment of a food processing system includes a conduit having a first end portion configured to be in communication with the compartment and a second end portion, a fluid discharge positioned substantially within the conduit between the first end portion and the second end portion, and a pressurized fluid source in communication with the fluid discharge. The pressurized fluid source is operable to propel a fluid through the fluid discharge to move the food product from the first end portion of the conduit toward the second end portion.

Abstract: A computer mouse stand which takes the form of a flat planar base from which extends upwardly an extensible telescoping tube assembly. The telescoping tube assembly is to be adjustable to various extended positions and then to be fixed in the selected extended position. The lower end of the extensible telescoping tube assembly may be fixedly secured to the base or may be secured to the base by means of a magnet. The upper end of the extensible telescoping tube assembly includes a ball socket with a ball to be mounted in conjunction with the socket. The ball can be connected to a platform or the ball could actually comprise a trackball.
