Abstract: Systems and methods are directed to a compression scheme for stable universally unique identities in a collaborative editing environment. A client receives edits to a document and immediately creates a local short identity for an element of each edit, whereby the local short identity represents an offset from a base unique identity associated with the client from which a unique identifier assigned to the element is derivable. The local short identity information including the local short identity for each element is transmitted to a server. Subsequently, global short identity information is received from the server from which one or more global short identities that each map to a local short identity of a client of a plurality of clients collaborating on the document can be determined by the client. Each global short identity is a compact identity that is universally unique to the plurality of clients including the client.

Abstract: A method for producing cannabinoid cooking oil and budder uses a mixture of cannabinoid material and natural oils to produce a consumable spread. The method used a quantity of cannabinoid substance, and a quantity of foaming substance. The foaming substance is a natural oil that can absorb and blend with the cannabinoid substance. The method begins by continuously agitating the cannabinoid substance with the foaming substance until a paste mixture is formed. The method continues by cooling the paste mixture until a solidified mixture is formed. The method concludes by thawing the solidified mixture to yield a tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) infused spreadable paste. Thus, an edible mixture is produced. Some versions of the method feature a flavoring substance that is added to the cannabinoid and foaming substance mixture. Thus, improving flavor.

Abstract: The present invention concerns use of an agent that increases sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) receptor activity, such as S1P, or an S1P receptor agonist, for treatment of alcohol-intoxicated subjects will help stabilize blood pressure and improve resuscitation efforts in alcohol-intoxicated subjects, including alcohol-intoxicated trauma patients. Another aspect concerns a kit for stabilization of alcohol-intoxicated subjects, comprising an agent that increases S1P receptor activity.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to a multi-chamber container made of thermoplastic plastic as a service-fluid container for a motor vehicle, which multi-chamber container comprises at least two chambers, which constitute separated volumes that are not in fluid connection with each other, at least not directly, and which are each designed to hold a different service fluid, wherein at least two surrounding walls of the chambers adjoin each other, the chambers are components of a continuous container body combination, the surrounding walls of at least two chambers that adjoin each other are connected to each other in a bonded manner by means of at least one material bridge or in a form-closed manner and/or by means of fasteners, and the connection is designed to independently release under the influence of deformation forces caused by impact such that the container body combination is divided into at least two separate container body parts or two container bodies under the influence of deformation forces caused by impact

Abstract: A method of assembling an optical relay assembly including forming a line of optical components within an optical component aligning groove of a first base member and directing the line of optical components from the optical component receiving groove into a cylinder covered by a shrinkable tube. The cylinder, line of optical components and shrinkable tube are then positioned within a cylinder receiving groove of a second base member and the line of optical components are extruded from the cylinder into the shrinkable tube. The line of optical components and shrinkable tube are advanced along the cylinder receiving groove and through a heating area for shrinking the shrinkable tube about the line of optical components.

Abstract: A method is provided for enterprise management and bundling of inventory to maximize revenue on perishable products. An electronic data-mart collects factors for the probability and price sensitivity of a buyer. The data-mart also collects rules for inventory scaling, available inventory to sell, budget (goal) information, advertiser payment history, and station performance data to feed to a scenario planner. Once three or more variables exist, algorithms create scenario plans to present the most profitable bundle of offerings. The scenarios are typically pre-approved although presented to local business units for an abnormality failsafe. Once processed by local business units, the scenarios are presented to the buyer. Negotiations typically cause the process to restart.

Abstract: An endoscope testing apparatus including a base, a main rail coupled to the base, a first centering mount coupled to the main rail, an optical test target holder coupled to the main rail, a second centering mount coupled to the optical test holder, the second centering mount being coaxially alignable with the first centering mount, and an optical scanning device coupled to the main rail and coaxially alignable with the first centering mount and the second centering mount. The test target holder includes an optical test target having a selectively adjustable distance between the optical test target and the second centering mount and a selectively adjustable angle formed between an axis formed by the centering mounts and the test target.

Abstract: The invention relates to test equipment for rigid endoscopes, but also for flexible endoscopes and video endoscopes. The equipment includes an enclosure having a cover hingedly coupled to a base, an optical test target coupled to the cover, an endoscope support stand pivotably coupled to the enclosure and a bed contained within the base including a plurality of indentations shaped for receiving individual pieces of endoscope testing equipment. The testing equipment can include magnification loupes, light post adapters, battery powered light sources, cleansing tissues and a ruler. A support bracket is coupled between the cover and the endoscope support stand wherein the endoscope support stand is pivotably coupled to the support bracket.

Abstract: A method is provided for enterprise management and bundling of radio, outdoor and entertainment inventory to achieve maximum revenue on perishable products. An electronic data-mart 110 or central information storage and data processing system is established to collect influencing factors for the probability and price sensitivity of a particular advertising buyer 120. The data-mart 110 also collects business rules for inventory scaling, available inventory to sell, budget (goal) information, advertiser payment history, and station performance data to feed to a scenario planner 130. Once three or more variables exist, inventory and pricing fuzzy logic algorithms create scenario plans to present the most profitable bundle of offerings. The scenarios are typically pre-approved although presented to the local business units 150 for an abnormality failsafe. Once processed by the local business units 150, the scenarios are presented to the advertising buyer 120.
