Abstract: A system comprising a first expired drug usability device is provided. The first expired drug usability device comprises a first spectrometer and one or more first processors. The first processors are configured to: obtain at least one expired drug machine learning-artificial intelligence (ML-AI) model associated with a pharmaceutical drug; obtain drug expiration information of a sample of the pharmaceutical drug, wherein the drug expiration information comprises spectrometer data associated with using the first spectrometer on the sample; input the drug expiration information into the at least one expired drug ML-AI model to determine usability information associated with the sample of the pharmaceutical drug; and perform one or more actions based on the usability information.

Abstract: A parlor game having game playing pieces which can be used to play conventional parlor games, such as a game of chess, and which can still be personalized to provide an aesthetic appearance or decor consistent with that desired by a user. The game board and playing pieces can still nevertheless represent playing pieces for particular games, as for example, those pieces used in the game of chess. A unique game board having a three dimensional playing surfaces is also provided.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are methods for harvesting adipose tissue so as to preserve an increased population of viable microvascular endothelial cells. Adipose tissue containing microvascular endothelial cells is harvested using a collection apparatus incorporating an elongate cannula having apertures with tissue cutting edges. A sub-ambient pressure is applied to a lumen in the cannula to draw the adipose tissue through the aperture where it is then severed using the cutting edge to disrupt the connective adipose matrix. This harvesting provides a cleaner, more homogeneous sample of adipose tissue, thereby increasing the population of viable microvascular endothelial cells obtained through further processing. Rapid and easy methods for the further homogenization of the harvested adipose tissue are also disclosed.

Abstract: A harvester apparatus having adjust suppression system provided for suppressing grain dust during crop harvesting operations wherein the harvester apparatus has a vehicle body with a harvesting mechanism for harvesting the crops and supplying the crops to an accumulator bin on the vehicle body. A discharge apparatus is provided to empty the accumulator bin and includes an elongated housing extending from the accumulator bin and terminating in a discharge opening. An elongated auger is rotatably mounted to the vehicle body about a longitudinal axis in an interior of the tubular housing. The auger transports the crops from the accumulator bin to the discharge opening during rotation. A nozzle mounted to the elongated housing has a spray opening located in the tubular passageway. Structure is provided for supplying a dust suppressing fluid to the spray opening of the nozzle for application to the crops being transported through the elongated housing by the auger.
