Abstract: A valve assembly for a medical device including a container including a first region and a second region, a first fluid inlet fluidly coupled to the first region, a second fluid inlet fluidly coupled to the second region, and a piston assembly disposed within the container. The container is configured to house an agent within the second region, the first fluid inlet is configured to deliver a first portion of pressurized fluid to the first region at a first pressure level, and the second fluid inlet is configured to deliver a second portion of pressurized fluid to the second region at a second pressure level that is less than the first pressure level. The piston assembly includes a valve configured to move from a first position to a second position in response to the piston assembly moving relative to the container.

Abstract: A system and method for delivering irreversible electroporation treatment to a selected tissue includes introducing an endoscope into a position adjacent the selected tissue, and advancing first and second probes having electrodes at their distal ends. One probe may be inserted into the lesion or tumor and remain in place while the other probe is moved around the tumor, with activation of the electrodes occurring at each location of the probes.

Abstract: One variation of a system for moderating use of a golf course includes a processor and a computer-readable device containing instructions that cause the processor to execute operations including: receiving data from one from the group consisting of a ball marker, a bag tag, and a mobile phone, the data including location and yardage data; determining, based on the received data, a traffic pattern at a time of receiving the data; determining, based on the received data, one or more segments of the golf course that are available to new players; dynamically allocating a price of a tee time based on the traffic pattern; providing, based on the received data, a scheduling option for the round; and determining, based on the received data, a cost based on one from the group consisting of an estimated time of completing the round and a number of holes included in the round.

Abstract: Disclosed is a chart containing a strategy to play the game of blackjack cards where the chart can clip to your shirt sleeve or watch band or can be worn like a wristband for easy viewing of the card player.

Abstract: A lower power arcjet propellant feed system for delivering propellant to a low power arcjet. The low power arcjet propellant feed system includes a liquid propellant storage chamber for storing a liquid propellant. A gas generator in communication with the liquid propellant storage chamber generates a gaseous propellant upon receipt of the liquid propellant from the liquid propellant storage chamber. A gas plenum in communication with the gas generator accumulates the gaseous propellant from the gas generator up to a desired pressure. Actively controllable valves actively control the flow of the liquid propellant into the gas generator and actively control the flow of the resultant gaseous propellant out of the gas generator and into the gas plenum up to the desired pressure. A substantially continuous and stable low flow rate of gaseous propellant is then delivered to the low power arcjet.
