Abstract: An overhead light fixture includes a driver assembly and a light-emitting assembly. The driver assembly includes a driver and a housing. The light-emitting assembly is operably connected to the driver and configured for downward emission of light from a light source of the light-emitting assembly. The light-emitting assembly is detachably secured to the driver assembly. The light fixture is configured to be mounted to a canopy sheet of an overhead canopy, with the driver assembly disposed above the canopy sheet and the light-emitting assembly disposed below the canopy sheet. The driver assembly is optionally configured so that, when the light-emitting assembly is detached from the driver assembly, the driver is removable downwardly through the base portion. A bezel is optionally disposed around a lens of the light-emitting assembly, for aesthetic reasons and/or for controlling a degree of lateral emission of light from the light fixture.

Abstract: The invention provides methods and mass-labeled peptides for use in said methods for quantifying the presence of a one or more viral proteins in a sample of a preparation containing agents which bind to said viral protein, using mass-spectroscopic analyses of the sample and standards containing known amounts of labeled and unlabeled signature peptides, in particular wherein said viral proteins are antigens in a vaccine for porcine circovirus.

Abstract: A turbocharger includes a turbine housing. The turbine housing includes an interior surface defining a turbine housing interior. The interior surface extends between a turbine housing inlet and a turbine housing outlet. The turbine housing also includes a wastegate duct disposed between the turbine housing inlet and the turbine housing outlet and defining a wastegate channel in fluid communication with the turbine housing inlet and the turbine housing outlet. The turbocharger also includes a valve seat and wastegate assembly including a valve movable between a first position and a second position. The turbocharger further includes a diffuser at least partially surrounding the valve seat for uniformly diffusing the flow of exhaust gas into the turbine housing outlet.

Abstract: A dock device connects participating devices such as a tablet device and an audio activated device, allowing them to operate as a single device. These participating devices may be associated with different accounts, each account being associated with particular “speechlets” or data processing functions. A natural language understanding (NLU) system uses NLU models to process text obtained from an automatic speech recognition (ASR) system to determine a set of possible intents. A second set of possible intents may then be generated that is limited to those possible intents that correspond to the speechlets associated with the docked device. The intents within the second set of possible intents are ranked, and the highest ranked intent may be deemed to be the intent of the user. Command data corresponding to the highest ranked intent may be generated and used to perform the action associated with that intent.
