Abstract: A business method for facilitating a buyer-pushed sales transaction and associated technological systems and computer-implemented methods are disclosed. One method includes rendering a first image of a physical environment in a client application, accepting a navigation command via the client application, and rendering, in response to the navigation command, a second image of the environment. At least two items of physical merchandise are visible in the second image. The method also comprises accepting a selection of a location on the second image. The method also comprises storing a set of coordinates in response to the selection. The method also comprises accepting a bid, and storing a bid package in a memory. The bid package includes and associates: (i) the bid; (ii) the set of coordinates; and (iii) a user identifier. The bid is for one of items of merchandise.

Abstract: The embodiments and methods described are directed to a solid-state laser module having a first end, a second end, and a surface between the first end and the second end. A mounting component is placed in communication with at least a portion of the surface of the laser module for selectively securing the laser module to a chamber wall of a chamber.

Abstract: A novel container is disclosed, comprising a housing and a lid or cover that extends over the top central opening into the housing. The cover rests on a ledge at the top of the housing walls. The ledge has a depression at one or more of the corners of the housing, which permits the cover over the depression to be pressed downward into the depression, causing the opposite side of the cover to project upward from the housing.

Abstract: The embodiments described are directed to a vaporizer having a housing with a vaporizing chamber formed therein. A fine mesh conductive screen is disposed inside the vaporizing chamber for generation of heat through electrical resistance. The housing includes an aperture to the vaporizing chamber and an exhaust aperture for evacuating vapors by a user.
