Abstract: In one aspect, a leveling assembly for adjusting the levelness or skew angle of a bottom rail of a covering for an architectural structure includes at least one movable or slideable component configured to be moved or slid laterally relative to the bottom rail or a headrail of the covering to adjust the length(s) along which one or more of the lift cords extend within the bottom rail or headrail, which, in turn, adjusts the effective length of such lift cord(s) defined between the bottom rail and the headrail of the covering. Such adjustment of the effective length(s) of the lift cord(s) results in the horizontal orientation or skew angle of the bottom rail being varied, thereby allowing the levelness of the bottom rail to be adjusted, as desired.

Abstract: A removable hot box is disclosed that includes a lower hot box portion, comprising: a lower housing comprising a plurality of lower clamping structures to clamp the lower housing to a press and locating structures to provide repeatable placing in the press; and a lower heating platen, received within the lower housing, wherein the lower housing or the lower heating platen comprises lower electrical connectors to provide a lower electrical connection to a heating system and lower cooling connectors to provide a lower cooling connection to a cooling system; and an upper hot box portion, positionable above the lower hot box portion and comprising: an upper housing comprising a plurality of upper clamping structures to clamp the upper housing to the press; an upper heating platen, received within the upper housing.

Abstract: An engineered microorganism(s) with novel pathways for the conversion of short-chain hydrocarbons to fuels and chemicals (e.g. carboxylic acids, alcohols, hydrocarbons, and their alpha-, beta-, and omega-functionalized derivatives) is described. Key to this approach is the use of hydrocarbon activation enzymes able to overcome the high stability and low reactivity of hydrocarbon compounds through the cleavage of an inert C—H bond. Oxygen-dependent or oxygen-independent activation enzymes can be exploited for this purpose, which when combined with appropriate pathways for the conversion of activated hydrocarbons to key metabolic intermediates, enables the generation of product precursors that can subsequently be converted to desired compounds through established pathways. These novel engineered microorganism(s) provide a route for the production of fuels and chemicals from short chain hydrocarbons such as methane, ethane, propane, butane, and pentane.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are modular container systems having child-resistant containers, tray inserts and tray frames. Also disclosed are methods using the modular container systems and methods of storing substances in containers. The containers have a container base and a container cap and provide for child-resistant containers. A user can releasably remove the container cap from container base with a squeeze and lift sequence. For example, the user squeezes opposite sides of the container base, which releases a locking mechanism and allows for removal of the cap by lifting or pulling the container cap off from the container base. The components of the modular container system are modular and stackable. The modular system allow for organized, efficient, accessible and storage of the child-resistant containers. The modular container system also allows for easy counting, sorting and processing of the containers.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are child-resistant containers. Also disclosed are methods using the modular containers and methods of storing substances in containers The containers have a glass base and a plastic cap and provide for child-resistant containers. A user can releasably remove the cap from base with a squeeze and lift sequence on the sides of the cap. For example, the user squeezes opposite sides of the container cap, which releases a locking mechanism and allows for removal of the cap by lifting or pulling the container cap off from the container base. The containers are modular and stackable.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are child-resistant containers having an integrated window. The containers have a container base and a container cap. The container cap contains the integrated window so that a user can view the contents stored within the container. The window can be any transparent, semi-transparent or translucent material. The material can control one or more environmental conditions, such as temperature, humidity, oxygen, ultra-violet light and others.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are methods and components for manufacturing substantially square glass containers and components and a method for forming parisons are disclosed. A plunger is extended into a mold which presses molten glass against the walls of the mold and against the extended plunger. Compressed air is applied through the neck of the parison to expand the parison outwardly against another mold and an end surface defined by a baffle. The neck ring provides retention features on the neck of the glass container and can include child-resistance features. Each of the molds, neck ring, and plunger produce substantially square glass containers having a substantially square neck.

Abstract: In one aspect, a covering for an architectural structure includes first and second rails and a cellular blanket extending between the first and second rails. One of the first rail or the second rail defines an interior storage cavity for receiving a portion of the cellular blanket to allow a drop length of the covering to be adjusted.
