Abstract: A tissue acquisition and handling system includes a biopsy device, a tray, and a container. The biopsy device includes a needle and a tissue sample holder assembly. The needle is configured to acquire tissue samples and communicate tissue samples to the tissue sample holder assembly. The tray includes a plurality of strips. The tray is configured to be receiving within the tissue sample holder assembly of the biopsy device. The container includes a plurality of tray receiving portions. Each tray receiving portion includes a distal end, a proximal end, and a tray chamber, the tray chamber extends between the proximal end and the distal end. The tray chamber is configured to receive at least a portion of the tray through a tray opening of the proximal end.

Abstract: An apparatus for individually storing multiple tissue samples separately from each other includes a base, a lid, a lock, and one or more vents. The base defines a plurality of reservoirs and a plurality of identification areas. A portion of the base defines an opening corresponding to each reservoir. The lid is configured to secure the multiple tissue samples within a corresponding reservoir by enclosing each corresponding opening in the closed configuration. The lock is configured to selectively lock the lid against the base in the closed configuration. The one or more vents are configured to enable entry of fluid into the reservoirs when the lid is in the closed configuration. The one or more vents are further configured to prevent exit of tissue samples from the reservoirs when the lid is in the closed configuration.

Abstract: A method of obtaining and analyzing at least one tissue sample includes forming, in a tissue container, first tracking data associated with the at least one tissue sample. Second tracking data is formed, in a transport container. The second tracking data is associated with the at least one tissue sample. The at least one tissue sample is placed in the tissue container. The first and second tracking data from the tissue container and the transport container are scanned with an electronic scanning system to ensure that the first and second tracking data are both associated with the removed tissue sample.

Abstract: A biopsy device includes a body, a needle, a hollow cutter, and a tissue sample holder. The needle extends distally from the body and includes a lateral aperture. The cutter is movable relative to the needle to sever a tissue sample and defines a cutter lumen. The tissue sample holder includes a manifold and an outer cover. The manifold includes a plurality of passages and an indexing portion. Each passage of the plurality of passages is configured to selectively index relative to a proximal end of the hollow cutter. The outer cover includes a resilient member. The resilient member is configured to engage with the indexing portion of the manifold to selectively index a passage of the plurality of passages with the distal end of the hollow cutter.

Abstract: A child carrier with a side buckle and ventilation features. The buckle includes a male portion and a female portion. The male portion of the buckle is shaped to mate with the female portion simply and easily, yet securely attaches the side portion of the carrier to the front/strap portion of the carrier. The buckle is robust, yet easy to use and does not easily disengage without a deliberate movement by the wearer thereof. The ventilation features provide comfort to the child carried in the carrier as well as the wearer thereof and are comprised of a ventilation panel that may be open, releasably closed, or accessed through a slit.

Abstract: A system administrator may define a vulnerability and vulnerability setting for the client machine and may associate a level of risk with the vulnerability. The client may assess the level of risk associated with the vulnerability setting on the client machine and may report data regarding the level of risk to the system administrator.

Abstract: A child harness comprising: (a) a crotch support coupled to a frame, the crotch support adapted to provide a seat for a child and distribute the child's weight to the frame; and (b) an active restraint coupled to the frame and responsive to the movement of the child secured therein, the active restraint including a leg strap adapted to engage a leg of the child and a shoulder strap adapted to engage a shoulder of the child, where the leg strap is operatively coupled to the shoulder strap, and where movement of one of the leg's or shoulder's of the child to engage the leg strap or shoulder strap restraining that portion of the child's body operates to increase tension on the corresponding shoulder strap or leg strap on the same side of the child's body. The invention provides an action-reaction harness system as well as a method of accommodating a child's range of movements without compromising the integrity of the harness.

Abstract: A toy projectile launcher in the form of a toy gun has a first and second barrel. The second barrel is pivotably mounted to a housing for movement from a first position to a second position in which the second barrel is axially aligned with the first barrel for firing a projectile from the second barrel.

Abstract: A toy vehicle having a hinged body that oscillates in response to the operation of a motor drive assembly. The toy vehicle includes a chassis having a plurality of wheels, a motor drive assembly mounted to the chassis and being operatively connected to at least one of the wheels, a body mounted to the chassis by a hinge, and an actuating cam operatively connected to the motor drive assembly and engaging the body. The hinge permits the body to move about the hinge, and the actuating cam thus imparts pivotal movement to the body about the hinge in response to operation of the motor drive assembly.

Abstract: A toy projectile launcher includes a body portion, two pairs of launching assemblies on the body portion, and a trigger assembly for actuating the launching assemblies for launching projectiles from the body portion. The trigger assembly includes a single trigger element which is alternatively operative for actuating one pair of the launching assemblies for simultaneously launching two projectiles or for actuating both pairs of launching assemblies for substantially simultaneously launching four projectiles.
