Abstract: Systems and methods for generating and porting a persistent virtual identity. Generating and porting a persistent virtual identity can include processing a 3D asset received from a source application, determining a plurality of standards associated with the 3D asset, comparing the plurality of standards associated with the 3D asset with a plurality of standards enforced by a destination application, configuring the plurality of standards associated with the 3D asset to correspond with the plurality of standards enforced by the destination application based on a determination that the plurality of standards associated with the 3D asset do not conform to the plurality of standards enforced by the destination application, and transferring the 3D asset to the destination application based on a determination that the plurality of standards associated with the 3D asset conform to the plurality of standards enforced by the destination application.

Abstract: Weapon and rifle systems and methods with integral or non-removable ammunition well or reservoir are described. A lower receiver for an M16 type weapon or rifle system is described with an aperture for loading one or more cartridges into an ammunition well or reservoir formed as part of the lower receiver, a pull channel, a follower pull coupled to the pull channel, a follower adapted for retraction by the follower pull, a bottom cover to the ammunition well or reservoir, wherein the pull channel and follower pull are capable of retracting the follower past the aperture for loading one or more cartridges into the ammunition well or reservoir. Also described is a weapon or rifle system using the lower receiver described herein and a method for loading a weapon or rifle system using the lower receiver as described herein.

Abstract: A method and assembly for packing a plurality of similar items of coiled material, each item having an annular shape with an internal circumferential surface of first diameter. A sheet of cardboard is folded to form a hollow cylindrical post having a triangular cross section with only three sides and three corners. The post is shaped so that an imaginary circle of second diameter drawn around the triangular cross section passes through each of the three corners, wherein the first diameter is equal to the second diameter The coiled material is sequentially positioned over the hollow post so that the internal circumferential surface of each item is in substantial contact with each of the three corners. At least two ties are positioned and tensioned to bind the items of coiled material to the post.
