Abstract: A method of producing hydrogen downhole in a subterranean reaction zone that employs fracturing a subterranean formation to provide fractures in the subterranean formation (e.g., to produce the subterranean reaction zone comprising fracture volume provided by the fractures), wherein the subterranean comprises a tight formation, and introducing one of more reactants downhole into the fractures (e.g., into the subterranean reaction zone), whereby hydrogen is produced by reaction of the one or more reactants in situ in the fractures (e.g., in situ in the reaction zone).

Abstract: Prosthetic heart valve assemblies and methods, apparatus, and systems used to deliver a prosthetic heart valve assembly. A prosthetic heart valve assembly includes an inner frame, a prosthetic leaflet section disposed within the inner frame extending between in inflow row of cells and an outflow row of cells of the inner frame, and an outer support stent. The inner frame is disposed within the outer support stent, and the outer support stent is coupled and/or fastened to the inner frame. The outer support stent includes a plurality leaflet capturing arms for capturing native leaflets between the leaflet capturing arms and a portion of the prosthetic heart valve assembly when the prosthetic heart valve assembly is implanted in a native valve. For example, the native leaflets can be frictionally secured between the leaflet capturing arms of the support stent and the inner frame.

Abstract: A toner container according to one example embodiment includes a drive coupler and an electrical contact positioned on a first longitudinal end thereof. A first guide post and a second guide post project outward along a longitudinal dimension of the toner container from the first longitudinal end of the body. The first guide post is spaced toward a first side of the body from the drive coupler, and the second guide post is spaced toward a second side of the body from the drive coupler. The first guide post and the second guide post overlap with the drive coupler along a vertical dimension of the toner container such that an imaginary horizontal plane intersects the first and second guide posts and the drive coupler. Bottom surfaces of the first and second guide posts may be positioned lower in the vertical dimension than a rotational axis of the drive coupler.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a virtual environment is instantiated to provide a virtual two-dimensional or three-dimensional space in which a plurality of users can interact. Interactions by the plurality of users within the virtual environment are classified, and a topic of interest for a particular user in the classified interactions is identified based on a topics of interest model for the particular user. A response action is then initiated in a local execution of the virtual environment presented to the particular user based on the identified topic of interest. The topics of interest model may be generated by content associated with the particular user, e.g., stored on a user device of the particular user or in a cloud storage account of the particular user.

Abstract: A system and methods including workstations for use in office spaces where the workstations include electrical couplers and power distribution systems for coupling portable and rechargeable batteries to the arrangements and delivering electrical charge to affordance devices where battery charging stations are located at different locations throughout a facility and alerts including nearest charging station with fully charged batteries are provided to employees at the stations when battery depletion thresholds are met or where batteries are automatically delivered to facility locations via automated robotic carts when needed.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed herein for storing configuration data as a set of master data and override data where one set of configuration data is defined as the master and every other set of configuration data is defined as override configuration data. A media guidance application may generate master configuration data including the most common configuration data used in the geographical region served by the media guidance application, and number of override configurations which contain only those data which differ from the master configuration data for a number of sub-regions of the geographical region. This reduces duplicative configuration data, and the media guidance application need only store one full set of configuration data, namely the master configuration data, and a number of smaller override configurations.

Abstract: Dynamic Cipher Key Management (DCKM) of the present invention enables the protection of sensitive electronic data by assigning symmetric or asymmetric cipher keys using a process that delivers the cipher key to a network endpoint device by means of a key installation, delivery, and storage methodology. DCKM may negate the need to physically touch the network device under protection. Further, DCKM's process is based on a set of operating principles that maintains the highest levels of assurance that the cipher key pairs are issued with only devices that have the right and authorization to create a secure communication path. The DCKM process realizes the same level of security confidence that is only achieved today with conventional token based key management services with respect to the paired devices linked via a cipher key public and private relationship.

Abstract: Compounds for inhibiting IP6K and methods for treating a condition, disease, or disorder associated with IP6K activity or expression are disclosed.

Abstract: Trimming shears for cutting (or trimming) a claw of a domesticated animal. The trimming shears include a first handle, a second handle, and at least one blade. Pivotal movement of the first handle relative to the second handle urges the blade between a pre-cut position and a cut position. The transition from the pre-cut position to the cut position being configured to cut a claw positioned in the blade path. The trimming shears may further include a guide for receiving a respective claw and guiding the claw to be positioned within the blade path. In one example, the guide may include a single aperture, wherein an effective opening area of the aperture is adjustable to accommodate a respective claw. In another example, the guide may include a plurality of apertures, each sized for receiving a respective claw size.

Abstract: A hands-free, adjustable telescoping magnifying mirror is provided. The mirror may have a first reflective surface and a second reflective surface and can be secured to a horizontal or vertical surface using a suction cup base or can be hung over a door or ledge using a retractable hanger bracket. A multi-stage telescoping rod is attached to the suction cup base and a swivel joint may be used to connect the telescoping rod to the mirror housing. The mirror may be extended from the base by extending the telescoping rod and the mirror assembly can stand freely without falling over, whether the suction cup base is engaged or not. Additionally, one or more light sources with diffuser screen may be disposed at a periphery of the first reflective surface or second reflective surface.

Abstract: A method including reacting carbon dioxide from exhaust gas produced at a wellsite to produce a solid metal carbonate, and microwaving the solid metal carbonate to produce recovered carbon dioxide and solid metal alkaline. A system for carrying out the method is also provided.

Abstract: An application receives a natural language query from a user into a cell of a notebook environment and responsively determines a set of precedent cells and a profile of the user. The application determines a portion of the data warehouse graph that corresponds to the natural language query. The application primes the large language model with priming context that is based on the portion of the data warehouse graph that corresponds to the natural language query, the precedent cells from which the code cell depends, and the profile of the user, the priming resulting in a primed large language model. The application inputs the natural language query into the primed large language model and receives, as output from the large language model, a response to the natural language query. The application provides the response to the natural language query to the user.
