Abstract: Example motor assemblies for architectural coverings are described herein. An example architectural covering assembly includes an architectural covering movable between an upper limit position, a lower limit position, and a transition limit position between the upper limit position and the lower limit position. The example architectural covering assembly also includes a motor, a consumer touchpoint, and an architectural covering controller. In response to detecting a first gesture at the consumer touchpoint, the architectural covering controller is to activate the motor to move the architectural covering to the transition limit position and stop, and in response to detecting a second gesture at the consumer touchpoint, different from the first gesture, the architectural covering controller is to activate the motor to move the architectural covering through the transition limit position and to the upper limit position or the lower limit position.

Abstract: A fairing system, including a fixed fairing assembly configured to attach to a cab of a tractor-trailer, a movable fairing assembly configured to attach to at least one of the fixed fairing assembly or the cab of the tractor-trailer, and an actuator assembly configured to move the movable fairing assembly relative to the fixed fairing assembly.

Abstract: Advertising is targeted to a specific user of a user console. A product data request is received from a user console and includes a user identifier, user data, and at least a first product identifier. A user account record associated with the user identifier is identified. The user account record includes a subscription service level identifier and a user account history. The user data are then associated with the user account record. A product catalog is searched for any product related entries associated with the request, and when any product related entries associated with the product data request are found, each such product related entry is provided to the user console.

Abstract: Improved devices and methods for performing electroporation-mediated delivery agents to cells is described. The method includes positioning a first electrode and a second electrode such that an electrical signal passed between the first electrode and the second electrode passes through the cell. The method also includes passing an electrical signal between the first electrode and the second electrode, the electrical signal having a frequency greater than about 10 kHz. In one embodiment of the method, the electrical signal has a bipolar waveform. In another embodiment of the method, the electrodes are positioned at a treatment site, e.g., a tumor, for in vivo delivery of an agent.

Abstract: Described are electroporation plates (2) that comprise a plurality of energizable electroporation wells (4) or chambers arrayed in a solid substrate, wherein at least two of the wells (4) in the plate (2) can be independently energized. Each well (4) contains at least two electroporation electrodes (12, 14) disposed therein, and serves as the vessel in which an individual electroporation reaction can be conducted. Also, described are electroporation systems that use electroporation plates (2) according to the invention, as well as methods of using such electroporation plates (2) and systems, for example, to optimize electroporation conditions.

Abstract: The invention generally relates to an appliance leveling system that includes a bolt having a threaded portion and a diameter, a nut, and a threaded aperture configured to engage the threaded portion of the bolt, and an appliance leg including a first bolt receiving aperture and a nut receiving structure. The diameter of the first bolt receiving aperture is greater than the bolt diameter to provide free axial movement of the bolt relative to the first bolt receiving aperture. The nut receiving structure is configured to receive and retain the nut so that rotation of the bolt relative to the nut adjusts a vertical height of the appliance.

Abstract: A flue connection system for an appliance provides a flue connection member. The flue connection member defines an aperture and includes an extending member. The flue connection member is configured to be coupled to a flue duct and an appliance, including a fireplace. An appliance connection member may also be provided for attachment to the appliance. The flue connection member and the appliance connection member are configured to be coupled to one another with the flue connection member positioned in contact with the appliance connection member.

Abstract: A fluid pressure regulator capable of adjustably setting a cut-off pressure between an upper and a lower limit having a two-piece valve body where the two pieces are threadably joined such that adjusting the distance between the two pieces (34, 54) of the valve body moves a piston (12) stem valve operating a high pressure port (40) towards or away from the high pressure port while not changing the distance between a spring (84) engaging the piston (12) and the piston head (14).
