Abstract: A self engaging and disengaging coupler is disclosed with a male coupler half and a female coupler half that uses magnetic elements in combination with structural guide and retention elements on each coupler half to engage and releasably lock the self engaging and disengaging coupler. These structural elements in combination with the magnetic elements also allow the self engaging and disengaging coupler to release through one or more quick tugs on the strap, rope or connecting element that is attached to the self engaging and disengaging coupler. This ability to engage and release the self engaging and disengaging coupler allows for easy one-handed operation.

Abstract: Electrodes and electrochemical cells that can be operated at high voltages and related methods are generally described.

Abstract: An Enhanced Lift Assist Device is described. The device allows a user to lift and manipulate large, heavy or bulky items by applying force to the item as opposed to traditional control methods such as buttons. This force based system provides ease of movement of the item, making it appear much lighter than it actually is. The Enhanced Lift Assist Device also includes an adjustable base that allows for change of orientation of the device that may include leveling or self-leveling functionality, allowing the device to be operated in non-traditional environments that require leveling or operational adjustments for proper functioning.

Abstract: Technologies are disclosed herein for resource tagging, grouping and associated functionality. A resource tagging service allows resource tags to be created and associated with computing resources in a service provider network. The resource tags can be utilized to search, collect, filter, organize and otherwise manage computing resources in the service provider network having matching tags, and/or to perform other types of functionality. A resource groups service allows customers and/or other users of the service provider network to view and access collections of computing resources that share common resource tags and/or other attributes. Resource groups can also be evaluated in order to identify computing resources in a service provider network for which certain types of actions or other functionality is to be performed. Membership of resource groups can also be evaluated over time and inferences can be drawn from the membership and from operational information associated with the member computing resources.

Abstract: Technologies are disclosed herein for asynchronous provision of resource status data. A resource status application can submit a request to a resource status service for status data regarding one or more computing resources provided by network services in a service provider network. In response thereto, the resource status service can submit synchronous requests to the network services for the status data. The resource status service can also provide a reply to the resource status application that includes an identifier (ID) that can be utilized to retrieve all or a portion of the status data at a future time. The reply might also specify a period of time that the resource status application is to wait before submitting another request for the status data to the resource status service. Subsequently, the resource status application can submit additional requests for the status data to the resource status service that include the identifier.
