Abstract: A first notification of a first action by a user with respect to a first content item may be received by a computer system, the first content item having a first relationship to the user. A second notification of a second notification by the user with respect to a second content item may be received by the computer system. The second content item may have a second relationship to the user, and at least a portion of the second content item may correspond to at least a portion of the first content item. A first property of the first relationship may be managed by the computer system based on the second notification.

Abstract: A wireless communication device includes a first circuit including a baseband circuit and a radio circuit, and at least one frontend module (FEM) remote from the first circuit and placed in close proximity to and coupled to at least one radio-frequency (RF) antenna. The FEM is coupled to the first circuit via interface circuitry. An FEM comprises a frontend (FE) circuit including one or more low-noise amplifiers (LNAs), one or more power amplifiers (PAs), and at least one of a multi-pole switch and a multiplexer. The multi-pole switch and the multiplexer being implemented on a first side of the FEM coupled to the interface circuitry. The interface circuitry includes at least some of filters, splitters, multi-pole switches, and multiplexers to reduce a count of interconnect routes to the at least one FEM.

Abstract: A shaving razor with a handle having a gripping portion extending along a longitudinal axis and a head. A cartridge mounted to the handle and has a shaving surface with at least one blade having a blade edge, and an opposing surface. The cartridge has a forward and a rearward pivot position relative to the handle. A pivot locking mechanism positioned on the head of the handle having a pusher member that slides toward and away from the cartridge between an engaged position and a disengaged position. The pusher member in the engaged position directly contacts the opposing surface of the cartridge forcing the cartridge in the forward position preventing the cartridge from pivoting with respect to the handle. The pusher member in the disengaged position is spaced apart from the opposing surface of the cartridge in the forward position allowing the cartridge to pivot relative to the handle.

Abstract: A yaw backup system is provided. The yaw backup system includes an energy storage medium for storing auxiliary power. The yaw backup system also includes a yaw controller for coordinating delivery of power from the energy storage medium to a yaw motor for controlling a yaw angle of a wind turbine during grid loss conditions. The yaw controller executes the steps of receiving wind direction signals over time from a sensor, altering a tolerance level of a wind turbine based on changes in the wind direction signals over time and controlling delivery of power to the yaw motor from the auxiliary power of the energy storage medium based on the tolerance level to control the yaw angle for reducing a load on the wind turbine induced by wind.

Abstract: Medical kits and methods for performing small incision DLEK include a corneal transplantation donor tissue graft formed into an implantable and compact rolled configuration using the flexible substrate.

Abstract: A safety device for a mechanical motion device and a method for protecting a person or object in the vicinity of a mechanical motion device are described herein. The safety device may include: a shroud; a coupling mechanism; and a detection device. The coupling mechanism joins the shroud in a displaceable manner to a mechanical motion device. The detection device is configured for communication with the safety control system of a mechanical motion device. The detection device is capable of detecting misalignment of the shroud from its initial aligned position and/or a collision between the shroud and a person or object. The detection device may send a signal to the safety control system of the mechanical motion device to at least slow the movement of the mechanical motion device before the mechanical motion device reaches the location of the collision of the shroud with an object or person.

Abstract: Systems, devices and methods for performing small incision DLEK include providing a corneal transplantation donor tissue graft; then forming the tissue graft into an implantable configuration using the flexible substrate. Related medical kits and tools for forming a compact or rolled donor tissue graft are also described.

Abstract: A photo-detector device may include a substrate having a bottom surface. The photo-detector device may further include a photocell secured to the bottom surface of the substrate. The photo-detector device may further include a metallic block having a top portion secured to a bottom surface of the substrate to enclose the photocell, wherein an opening is formed within the metallic block that extends from the top portion of the metallic block to a bottom portion of the metallic block to form an aperture for light to travel through the metallic block to the photocell. The photo-detector device may further include a member insertable into the metallic block to vary an open area of the aperture.

Abstract: Methods and systems for correcting presbyopia using a surgical excimer laser include activating the laser once and transmitting a pre-defined three dimensional ablation profile to treat presbyopia based on the single activating step.

Abstract: Provided are computing devices that use a module and can exhibit different interfaces. In one embodiment provided is a mobile computing device comprising: a body in shape of a module having two parallel flat surfaces; a processor and a memory placed inside the body; and a docking port at end of the body between the parallel flat surfaces for detachably attaching to a monitor to obtain an electronic connection wherein the computing device is attached to the monitor by resting on one of the flat surfaces to provide one or more of a cellular phone, a laptop computer, a personal computer, a tablet computer, or a watch.

Abstract: Devices, systems, surgical kits and methods for corneal surgery, preferably using femto-laser assisted, corneal tattooing. The corneal tattoos are formed with one or more viscous opaque substances such as pasty substances of different colors to match eye colors of different patients.

Abstract: An event trigger data string is formulated and added to digital content for distribution to an audience via broadcast, satellite, cable or any other technology. The event trigger data string includes identification of an event source, identification of an operation to be performed, and a payload. A controller reads the data string and outputs a command to an appropriate event source for alteration of a digital content stream based upon the identified operation. The payload may, for example, identify an advertisement or notice to be spliced into or out of the digital content stream. Such event trigger data strings may be added to many different digital content streams, and a router or switching component may distribute the streams to systems that disseminate them to the audience. The technique enables interaction with different event sources, and allows command of multiple different operations by these event sources.
