Abstract: There is provided a hitch trainer. The hitch trainer may include a base member that can be removably connected to a trailer hitch or wall mounted receptacle, and a top member with an integrated pull-up bar. The vertical length of the shaft of the hitch trainer may be extended by the insertion of one or more mid-members. Pairs of band pegs may be attached to either side of each of the base, top and mid-members, allowing the hitch trainer to anchor exercise bands for use in resistance training. The integrated pull-up bar may be used for body weight exercises such as pull-ups or dips. As the top, base, and mid-members are slidably attached to one another, they can be unattached such that the entire hitch trainer can be stored in a compact manner.

Abstract: Various embodiments provide participants in a medical workflow with an integrated way to interact with a variety of medical information systems. Medical information can be collected from different medical information systems and/or data sources and presented to a user in one or more customized interfaces. Users can interact with the interface(s) and perform tasks associated with a medical workflow.

Abstract: A cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) monitoring device for the detection of obstructions in real time through the collection of pressure data from an on-board pressure sensor. This system is designed to integrate into medical devices equipped with a CSF drainage system, such as implantable shunts. CSF analysis data can be transmitted in real-time wirelessly to a physician or can be stored on-board in a memory card and retrieved wirelessly at a later time. Information from the CSF sensors can be used by physicians to monitor CSF conditions known to cause shunt malfunction/obstruction such as elevated protein concentrations, evidence of an on-going or recent hemorrhage such as presence of heme proteins, and concentrations of administered medications/drugs over time. It can be used to monitor for CSF infections, in which increased pressure, increased temperature, CSF high protein and low glucose, would be suggestive of CSF infections.

Abstract: Some embodiments of the invention include apparatus and systems having integrated circuits. Terminals or pins of the integrated circuits are configured to be driven to a state, to be floated for a time interval, and to be measured to determine the state of the terminals after the time interval. The measurement involves sampling the RC time constant of leakage current of the terminals. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Abstract: A container including a bottom and a plurality of walls that form a storage cavity. A primary lid is disposed over the storage cavity. The primary lid includes a top surface that defines a dispenser portion through which items within the storage cavity may be dispensed. A dispenser lid is pivotally attached to the primary lid. The dispenser lid has a closed position in which the dispenser lid is pivoted downwards relative to the primary lid to cover the dispenser portion and an open position in which the dispenser lid is pivoted upwards relative to the primary lid to expose the dispenser portion. The dispenser lid includes a pivot end portion and an opposite free end portion, and a biasing pin extending from the pivot end portion. The biasing pin has a longitudinal end portion anchored to the primary lid so that the biasing pin urges the dispenser lid towards the open position. The biasing pin and a main dispenser lid portion are formed as a unitary structure.

Abstract: A method of testing an integrated circuit includes applying a voltage to one of the pins of the integrated circuit. The pin is floated for a predetermined time. A measurement is performed after the predetermined time. The measurement involves sampling the RC time constant of leakage current of the pins.

Abstract: A user of a verification system registers directly at the verification system web site or by proxy at the time of engaging in an e-transaction through a vendor's web site. Upon registration, the user provides personal information in a secure environment. The verification system checks the database to cross-reference the user-provided information with the government-certified, or non-government certified data stored in the verification system databases. The verification system then creates a unique identifier and a digital identification badge. The user inputs the unique identifier into the system at the start of an e-transaction and the digital identification badge is securely transmitted from the verification system to the vendor in response to the unique identifier. The vendor decrypts the digital identification badge to confirm that the user is authorized to make a particular e-transaction.
