Abstract: Device (10) for guiding a user to mark a core sample (12) carried by a core tube (14), the device (10) including: a housing (20) mountable relative to the core sample (12) or the core tube (14) and having a marking guide (22) configured to be arranged adjacent the core sample (12) to guide marking; a communications module (26) operable to communicate with the downhole tool (16) to receive data; a user interface (28) operable to convey perceptible feedback to the user; and a processor (30) and associated memory (32). The processor (30) is configured to store data in the memory (32) and determine a marking position based on the data, and operate the user interface (28) to direct the user to cause relative rotation of the marking guide (22) and the core sample (12) so that the marking guide (22) is aligned with the marking position, allowing the user to use the marking guide (22) to mark the core sample (12) at the marking position.

Abstract: A spacer device for use with a metered dose inhaler (MDI). The spacer device comprises an aerosol chamber for holding the aerosolized medication sprayed from the MDI. According to one particular design, the aerosol chamber has a forward shell, a rear shell, and an extendable barrel in between. The extendable barrel comprises a flexible plastic sheath that is supported by a coiled wire spring. The spacer device further comprises a mounting bracket to hold the MDI. The mounting bracket holds the MDI such that the spray outlet of the MDI is mated with the aerosol chamber. Also, the assembly is configured such that the aerosol chamber is aligned substantially parallel to the actuator boot of the MDI. During use, the aerosol chamber is folded downward away from the MDI. The aerosol chamber is then extended outward to increase its volume.

Abstract: A portable gas fractionalization apparatus that provides oxygen rich air to patients is provided. The apparatus is compact, lightweight, and low-noise. The components are assembled in a housing that is divided into two compartments. One compartment is maintained at a lower temperature than the other compartment. The lower temperature compartment is configured for mounting components that can be damaged by heat. The higher temperature compartment is configured for mounting heat generating components. An air stream is directed to flow from an ambient air inlet to an air outlet constantly so that there is always a fresh source of cooling air. The apparatus utilizes a PSA unit to produce an oxygen enriched product. The PSA unit incorporates a novel single ended column design in which all flow paths and valves can be co-located on a single integrated manifold. The apparatus also can be used in conjunction with a satellite conserver and a mobility cart.

Abstract: Computer-implemented methods and systems are provided for predicting how business decisions will impact an enterprise. A group of models may be used to model aspects of an enterprise and business units over a multiyear period. Models relating to different business parameters may be linked so that it may be determined how business decisions that result in a change to an input to one model impact aspects of the enterprise that are not modeled by the model. An iterative process may be used to obtain optimal results.

Abstract: In accordance with one embodiment, a pick-up tool includes an elongated hollow body having first and second pick-up fingers extending divergently outward from a distal end of the body. Engagement elements, such as rubber cups, may be individually located at terminating outer ends of each of the first and second pick-up fingers. The pick-up tool further includes first and second linkages respectively extending from the first and second pick-up fingers. A lighting element is coupled to the body, a magnet is coupled to the first linkage, and a switch, preferably a reed switch is coupled to the distal end of the body. The switch causes the lighting element to emit light for a predetermined period of time upon detecting the magnet at an effectively close distance relative to the switch.
