Abstract: An antimicrobial device, such as a flashlight, lantern, or lamp, is discussed herein. The antimicrobial device produces light in the ultraviolet (UV) spectrum (i.e., 150-250 nm), including 200-230 nm. The antimicrobial device includes an electron source, an extractor, and a target material. The electron source provides the electrons of sufficient energy to cause a photon to be released, whether by a target or by the electron itself. The extractor extracts the electrons from the electron source. The target material is a component at which the electron is directed. The target material can release a photon having a desired wavelength or within a desired wavelength range or cause the electron to release a photon having a desired wavelength or within a desired wavelength range.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed towards a luminaire having an optical waveguide and a light source. The optical waveguide has a hollow cylindrical structure with a first surface and a second surface at the opposite ends of the cylindrical structure and an external surface and an inner surface extending between the first surface and the second surface. The light source illuminates the first surface of the optical waveguide. The external surface of the optical waveguide is constructed such that the light from the light source exits from the inner surface. The luminaire directs the light from the light source towards the nadir and prevents glare to the eyes of the people in the surrounding space.

Abstract: This is a measuring tool for use in the installation of metal roofing when such metal roofing must be cut in order to fit along valleys in the roof structure. Valleys are places where the roof surface changes direction, such as where the roof of a gable joins the main body of the roof. The tool measures the point at which the metal roofing panel is to be cut by sliding the base of the tool down the last rib of the last installed panel until the tip of the pointer arm touches the chalk like along which the next panel must fit. The distance from the top of said last panel to the bottom of the base of the tool corresponds to the distance from the top of the new panel to the point at which its leading edge should be cut to fit along the chalk line.

Abstract: Selectively masking data in messages is provided. A masking expression is retrieved from a schema. The masking expression corresponds to a particular attribute within related messages generated by a producer application and sent to an immutable datastore for consumption by a consumer application of the computer that is registered to receive the messages related to a particular topic from the immutable datastore. A particular attribute value is masked only in those messages received from the immutable datastore that contain the particular attribute value during a time period when the particular attribute value is associated with the masking expression.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for ablating tissue are disclosed that comprise positioning two or more bi-directional ablation energy sources in spaced-apart relation in sufficient proximity to the tissue to be ablated so that, upon activation each energy source creates an energy field in the tissue to be ablated.

The energy sources are alternately activated and deactivated, so that a substantially constant energy field results where the energy fields created by at least two of the energy sources overlap. While the energy sources are preferably RF energy sources, other energy sources, such as microwave, may be used.
