Abstract: This disclosure describes one or more implementations of systems, non-transitory computer-readable media, and methods that utilize a repository of metadata-based recommendations to classify data sources using metadata from the data sources. For example, the disclosed systems can generate a repository of metadata-based recommendations that indicate recommended classifications for objects within data sources through metadata associated with a data source schema. In some instances, the disclosed systems identify metadata from a data source schema associated with the data source. Subsequently, the disclosed systems can match the identified metadata to a metadata-based recommendation via metadata mappings in the metadata-based recommendation repository to select a metadata-based recommendation.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a lid support and positioner that is quite versatile in how it can cooperate with the handle of cooking vessels to overly the handle, and to underly, engage and provide support for a cover or lid of the cooking vessel that is positioned off center relative to an upward opening cooking chamber of the vessel to permit the cooking chamber to breathe so as to minimize or prevent bubble-over or boil-over of cooking fluids. When used with cooking vessels that have elongate handles, the lid support and positioner may be adjustable positioned on the length of the handle to underly, engage and support a peripheral portion of an off-center cover or lid at a range of locations where the lid selectively covers/uncovers different proportions of the cooking chamber to thereby regulate and control the cooking temperature within the cooking chamber.

Abstract: The foregoing application describes a system and method of performing a minimally invasive surgical operation. More specifically, the invention involves the use of disposable cannula and slender dilators of variable lengths, which incorporate a source of illumination to carry light to a surgical site and video capabilities for capturing and displaying images from a CMOS or CCD camera device. According to one embodiment, fiber optics run semi-circumferentially or along walls of the cannula/dilator and terminate at about a centimeter from the distal end of the cannula/dilator, thereby preventing illumination from “bottoming out” at the floor of the incision. According to one alternate embodiment, the light fibers may be fashioned in an annulus around one or more camera chips to provide illumination and video of the surgical site.

Abstract: An enteral dispenser and associated method of use is provided for enterally dispensing liquid medications. The enteral dispenser includes a barrel having a number of dosing gradations arranged upon its outer surface. The barrel receives a liquid medication that has been selected from a predefined group of liquid medications having a range of colors. A plunger is moveably disposed within the barrel, and a piston is coupled to a distal end of the plunger. The piston has a peripheral portion for selective alignment with respect to a desired one of the dosing gradations and is a color that is optically differentiable from each of the colors represented within the range of colors of the predefined group of liquid medications, such that an user may differentiate between the color of the a peripheral portion of the piston and the color of any selected liquid medication.
