Abstract: A connector is disconnectable from the device, yet providing stable connections and allowing one side of the connection to rotate about an axis through the connection and move longitudinally along the axis. One embodiment is a set of headphones allowing for the owner to select various configurations of the headband and ear cups.

Abstract: An apparatus for stabilizing a crack or joint has an elongated plate with a cam gear end and a pin end. The cam gear end has a first aperture and the pin end has a second aperture. A cam gear is sized to fit within the first aperture of the elongated plated. The cam gear has a stud pin aperture positioned off a center point of the cam gear and a rotation point. A first stud pin is sized to pass through the stud pin aperture of the cam gear and a second stud pin is sized to pass through the second aperture. A locking mechanism for locking the cam gear in relation to the elongated plate is included.

Abstract: An electronic circuit comprising: an integrated circuit chip, the integrated circuit chip having a top face; portions of the top face of the chip being covered by a first metal layer electrically connected to the integrated circuit; and a dialectic layer formed on the top face of the chip beside and on top of said first metal layer; wherein the dielectric layer extends parallel to the top face of the chip beyond the edges of the chip, the first metal layer extending in the dielectric layer beyond the edges of the chip; and wherein portions of a top surface of the dielectric layer are covered by a second metal layer, portions of the first and second metal layers being electrically connected through the dielectric layer.

Abstract: A spinal implant system comprises a plurality of alternate first members. Each of the first members includes an inner surface defining an implant cavity. A second member is configured to penetrate tissue and includes a mating element engageable with a first member such that the second member is interchangeable with the plurality of first members. A first member is selected for connection with the second member to comprise a bone fastener having a selected movement. Fasteners, instruments and methods are disclosed.

Abstract: A bone fastener comprises a first member including an inner surface defining an implant cavity. A part is disposed with the first member and is non-rotatable relative to the inner surface. A second member is disposed at an angle relative to the first member and configured to penetrate tissue. The part axially translates relative to the inner surface and engages the second member to selectively adjust the angle. Implants, systems, constructs, instruments and methods are disclosed.

Abstract: Implementations of edible structures may include: at least four walls, each wall having an inner side and an outer side, at least one flexible interior wall support coupled to the inner sides of the at least four walls where the width of the at least one flexible interior wall support is less than the height of any of the at least four walls, a roof having two or more roof sections, wherein the roof is configured to rest on the at least four walls, each roof section having an inner side and an outer side, and at least one flexible interior roof support coupled to the inner sides of the two or more roof sections, wherein the at least one flexible interior roof support is not directly connected to the at least one flexible interior wall support.

Abstract: An electronic circuit comprising: an integrated circuit chip, the integrated circuit chip having a top face; portions of the top face of the chip being covered by a first metal layer electrically connected to the integrated circuit; and a dielectic layer formed on the top face of the chip beside and on top of said first metal layer; wherein the dielectric layer extends parallel to the top face of the chip beyond the edges of the chip, the first metal layer extending in the dielectric layer beyond the edges of the chip; and wherein portions of a top surface of the dielectric layer are covered by a second metal layer, portions of the first and second metal layers being electrically connected through the dielectric layer.

Abstract: The present invention is a flexible interior support which allows edible structures to lay in a flatten state during storage and then pop-up to stand upright prior to use. A method for making the pop-up decorative edible structure is also presented. The pop-up interior support is preferably used in the construction of arts and crafts, and more specifically the construction of decorative edible structures, such as gingerbread houses.

Abstract: A spinal implant system comprises a plurality of alternate first members. Each of the first members includes an inner surface defining an implant cavity. A second member is configured to penetrate tissue and includes a mating element engageable with a first member such that the second member is interchangeable with the plurality of first members. The second member is manually engageable with the first member to connect the members. Fasteners, instruments and methods are disclosed.

Abstract: A spinal implant system comprises at least one first member including an inner surface defining an implant cavity. A second member is configured to penetrate tissue and includes an inner surface defining a cavity. A third member is engageable with the inner surfaces to resist and/or prevent movement of the second member relative to the first member. Fasteners, instruments and methods are disclosed.

Abstract: A spinal construct comprises a longitudinal member extending between a first end and a second end. A reduction member is connected with the second end and defines at least one opening configured for disposal of the longitudinal member. The reduction member includes an outer surface engageable with a spinal implant and is translatable relative to the longitudinal member. Systems and methods are disclosed.
