Abstract: A method and apparatus according to which a connection between first and second completion joints is made up. The first and second completion joints each include a base pipe and a shunt tube disposed along the base pipe. The respective base pipes of the first and second completion joints are threadably engaged to form a pin and box connection. The shunt tube of the first completion joint is coupled to the shunt tube of the second completion joint using a jumper tube. The jumper tube is supported at a position longitudinally between the respective shunt tubes of the first and second completion joints using a first support member. In some embodiments, the first support member is longitudinally slidable along the base pipe of the first or second completion joint to the position between the respective shunt tubes of the first and second completion joints.

Abstract: JACKPOT 2.0 is a means of adding an additional jackpot game to any or all card-based casino games of chance. The invention is novel in that it is the only iteration of it's kind proposing a dynamic and operable change to the front face of a standard deck of cards. The invention uses this broadly described change in embodiments that are modified to suit the preferences of casinos or other game providers.

Abstract: A mobile bin tipper that is configured to receive, lift, and rotate a bin. The mobile bin tipper quickly and efficiently empty the content of bins into larger containers.

Abstract: A well screen for a borehole. The well screen may include an arcuate outer shroud, a mesh layer, and a drainage layer. The arcuate outer shroud may include perforations, a first longitudinal end, and a second longitudinal end. The first and second longitudinal ends may be spaced arcuately apart such that a gap is formed between the first and the second longitudinal ends of the outer shroud. The mesh layer may restrict flow of particulate materials of a predetermined size from passing therethrough and is positioned radially inward from the outer shroud. The mesh layer may include a first and a second longitudinal end that are radially aligned with the first and the second longitudinal ends of the outer shroud to continue the gap. The drainage layer may be positioned radially inward from to the mesh layer and may include at least one of perforations or louvers.

Abstract: Memory devices, controllers and associated methods are disclosed. In one embodiment, a memory device is disclosed. The memory device includes storage cells that are each formed with a metal-oxide-semiconductor (MOS) transistor having a floating body. Data is stored as charge in the floating body. A transfer interface receives a read command to access data stored in a first group of the storage cells. Sensing circuitry detects the data stored in the first group of storage cells. The transfer interface selectively performs a writeback operation of the sensed data associated with the read command.

Abstract: A memory module comprises an address buffer circuit, a command/address channel, and a plurality of memory components controlled by the address buffer circuit via the command/address channel. At least one memory component comprises a plurality of data ports, a memory core to store data, and a data interface. The data interface is capable of transferring data between the memory core and the data ports. The data interface supports a first data width mode in which the data interface transfers data at a first bit width and a first burst length via the data ports. The data interface also supports a second data width mode in which the data interface transfers data at a second bit width and second burst length via the data ports. The first bit width is greater than the second bit width and the first burst length is shorter than the second burst length.

Abstract: An adjustable fluid injection tool for use in a wellbore may be used to provide steam to a wellbore annulus. The tool may be adjusted immediately before being positioned in a well. Fluid may exit an inner space of the tool into an accumulation chamber, after which the fluid may exit the tool through one or more adjustable valves. An adjustable valve may be formed between a valve seat of a shroud and a valve plug of a plug sleeve. The plug sleeve may be positioned around a tubular of the tool and able to translate linearly with respect to the shroud by rotating the plug sleeve, thus adjusting the adjustable valve and controlling fluid flow out of the tool.

Abstract: Base includes an outer support wall, a support surface extending inwardly from the outer support wall and defining a reference plane, an inner support wall extending upwardly from the support surface, a first radiused portion extending radially inward from the inner support wall and concave relative to the reference plane, a second radiused portion extending radially inward from the first radiused portion and convex relative to the reference plane, an intermediate surface extending radially inward from the second radiused portion, a third radiused portion extending radially inward from the intermediate surface and convex relative to the reference plane, and a central portion disposed proximate the third radiused portion.

Abstract: The invention relates to a hyperthermia (focused ultrasound—FUS) method where an energy source is applied, repeatedly, to a desired part of the body to induce hyperthermia, e.g. using image guidance. Hyperthermia is applied after a drug or biopharmaceutical (API) and/or their labelled equivalents (theranostics) and/or their drug delivery systems has been administered to the live subject to cause the enhanced tissue distribution and/or controlled release of the drug, previously encapsulated in thermo-sensitive (lipid nano)particles, to a desired site of the body. Hyperthermia (Ultrasound) is then halted, and the site of interest. Hyperthermia is then applied again using image guidance to monitor drug's accumulation in the tissue. The drug and or the drug delivery system are also labelled (for imaging) to allow real time monitoring and modulation of the API in the human body which can be used to direct and guide the FUS at the site of interest.

Abstract: The invention provides a (drug-containing) lipid nanoparticle with: (i) at least one phospholipid; (ii) at least one lysolipid; and (iii) at least one phospholipid comprising a hydrophilic polymer; and (iv) at least one structural lipid of formula (I) which has the following general structure: wherein R and R? are long hydrocarbyl hydrophobic chains, Y is a linker element, and PHG is a polar head group described as large according to its van der Waals radius, and which is different from the phospholipid (i). The lipid nanoparticle can release a drug (or API) from within the lipid nanoparticle as a result of focused ultrasound (FUS) applied continuously, at least twice, to a desired part of the body to induce hyperthermia (an increase in temperature). FUS is applied after the lipid nanoparticle containing the drug has been administered to the live subject, and causes controlled release of the drug at the desired site of the body.
