Abstract: A stand for supporting a computing device is provided. The stand may support the computing device at a height such that a screen of the computing device is capable of being at or near eye-level of a user. The stand may include a frame member and a gripping mechanism attached to an end of the frame member. The gripping mechanism may secure the computing device to the stand.

Abstract: An interchangeable chamber and barrel system for allowing an end user to easily change a chamber body and/or a barrel for a firearm without the assistance of a gunsmith. The interchangeable chamber and barrel system generally includes an interchangeable chamber body having a chamber that is removably connectable to a receiver of a firearm and an interchangeable barrel that is removably connected to the chamber body opposite of the receiver. The system also includes a sealing member positioned within channels in the barrel and the chamber body. The chamber body and/or the barrel may be changed on the firearm at any time based on the preference of the end user.

Abstract: Disclosed are strategies for the economical microbial generation of hydrogen, useful as an alternative energy source, from hydrocarbon-rich deposits such as coal, oil and/or gas formations, oil shale, bitumen, tar sands, carbonaceous shale, peat deposits and sediments rich in organic matter through the management of the metabolism of microbial consortia.

Abstract: A method of transferring an interest in microbial rights associated with a parcel of land. The method includes recognizing a microbial estate that includes the microbial rights, where ownership interests in the microbial estate are separately transferable from other estates associated with the parcel of land, and transferring one or more of the microbial rights of the microbial estate to a party that is not in possession or ownership of the microbial estate. Also, a method of searching interests in a microbial estate, where the method may include identifying a location for a parcel of land associated with the microbial estate, searching records associated with the identified parcel of land, and identifying in the records a name of one or more parties having an interest in the microbial estate. Methods of auctioning a microbial right in microbial property are also described.

Abstract: A gun and bow camera mount providing an apparatus capable of mounting a conventional hand-held camera to any of various hunting weapons. The gun and bow camera mount includes a camera support having a camera mount resiliently biased against a carriage. The camera support includes typical mounting apparatus defining a shooting vector corresponding to the direction a conventional hand-held camera points when mounted to the typical mounting apparatus. The gun and bow camera mount includes features for securing the camera support to a conventional hunting weapon such that the shooting vector is fixed in a direction parallel to the line of fire of the weapon.

Abstract: A method to stimulate the biogenic production of a metabolite with enhanced hydrogen content that includes forming an opening in a geologic formation to provide access to a consortium of microorganisms, and injecting water into the opening to disperse at least a portion of the consortium over a larger region of a hydrocarbon deposit. The method may also include measuring a change in the rate of production of the metabolite in the formation. Also, an method to stimulate biogenic production of a metabolite that includes measuring a salinity level of formation water in a geologic formation, and injecting water into the opening to reduce the salinity level of the formation water in the formation. The method may also include measuring a change in the rate of production of the metabolite in the formation.
