Abstract: Methods and related devices for impinging light on tissue, for example within a body of a patient, to induce various biological effects are disclosed. Biological effects may include at least one of inactivating and/or inhibiting growth of one or more pathogens, upregulating a local immune response, stimulating enzymatic generation of nitric oxide to increase endogenous stores of nitric oxide, releasing nitric oxide from endogenous stores of nitric oxide, and inducing an anti-inflammatory effect. Wavelengths of light are selected based on intended biological effects for one or more of targeted tissue types and targeted pathogens. Light treatments may provide multiple pathogenic biological effects, either with light of a single wavelength or with light having multiple wavelengths. Devices and methods for light treatments are disclosed that provide light doses for inducing biological effects on various targeted pathogens and targeted tissues with increased efficacy and reduced cytotoxicity.

Abstract: A selectively adjustable and lockable utility mount is used to mount a device to a stable structure. The utility mount includes a hydraulic lock that applies the locking force that maintains the locked condition of the utility mount. Mounting brackets for utility mounts have spaced-apart mount elements that engage a surface of a stable structure. Some configurations of mounting bracket include mount elements that are movable between stored conditions and deployed conditions. The stored conditions reduce the size of the device to make it more convenient to pack. A climbing stick uses the storable mount elements.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for suggesting a charging station for an electric vehicle. A partial range of the electric vehicle corresponding to a predetermined percentage of the current state of charge of a battery of the electric vehicle is determined. A location corresponding to the partial range, along a route to a destination, is determined and used to select a suggested charging station based on the location corresponding to the partial range. The suggested charging station is generated for presentation at a display.

At least a part of the encrypted rolling code is transmitted to a movable barrier operator using the selected patterns as transmission characteristics.

Abstract: Technology for read in a cross-point memory array. Drive transistors pass read and write currents to the cross-point memory array. The read current charges a selected word line to turn on a threshold switching selector of a selected memory cell. While the threshold switching selector is on, the current (read or write) passes through the selected memory cell. The memory system applies a smaller overdrive voltage to a drive transistor when the drive transistor is passing the read current than when the drive transistor is passing the write current. A smaller overdrive voltage increases the resistance of the drive transistor. Increasing the resistance of the drive transistor increases the resistance seen by the threshold switching selector in the selected memory cell, which reduces the Ihold of the threshold switching selector.
