Abstract: A temporary storage container for providing temporary storage of odorous waste materials. The container has potential for particular application in pet litter and soiled diaper disposal. The container prevents liquids and solids from entering or exiting any area other than the designed entry and exit paths. The container has various sealable apertures that prevent the release of odorous gasses from the container when in a sealed position.

Abstract: The invention is directed to methods and systems for managing access to secured data. In particular, the invention provides a three-fold security layer to manage access to a virtual application by verifying a user device, user credentials, and a physical identifier. Each of the user device, user credentials, and the physical identifier is associated with a user and identification of each is required to grant access to the virtual application. A user may enter, from an authorized user device, user credentials, such as a user name and password. The user may then physically contact the physical identifier and the user device in order to automatically generate a unique token required to automatically gain access to the virtual application.

Abstract: A surgical device controls the temperature of an organ such as a kidney during minimally invasive surgery. The device includes a number of chambers fed by a fluid port. At least one of the chambers includes one or more baffles so that a cooling fluid entering through the fluid port is selectively distributed in a desired manner about an enclosed organ. The device may be fabricated of materials that can be rolled, folded, or otherwise compressed into a form suitable for delivery to a minimally-invasive surgical site.
