Abstract: Extended-release microsphere formulations comprising lurasidone are provided. In one aspect. the microsphere formulations are characterized in that the lurasidone is released in vivo in humans over a period of about 30 days or about 60 days. Methods for making and using the formulations are also provided.

Abstract: A cart for storage of an endoscope is provided. The cart comprises a housing having a slot configured to slidably receive a tray. The tray is configured to store an endoscope, and a timer is coupled to the housing, slot and/or tray. The timer is configured to display increments of time that the endoscope is stored in the tray. Systems and methods are also provided.

Abstract: Systems and methods of flow testing different workpieces in an automated testing station are described. Each workpiece comprises a flow path from an inlet to an outlet and the automated testing station comprises first and second sealing heads for injecting gas into the inlets of workpieces and collecting gas from the outlets of workpieces. The method includes performing a flow test by moving the flow test heads toward the workpieces while at the same time priming a flow of gas from the first sealing heads to the second sealing heads, prior to engaging the workpiece.

Abstract: A mast step for a kayak sailing rig is provided. The mast step supports a mast relative to a deck of the kayak at a desired angle to facilitate an optimum sail shape. The step also has a convex below a surface which contacts the deck, allowing the mast to be rotated forward or aft in use, and in particular allowing the mast to be rotated from an upright position to a flat position against the deck of the kayak.
