Abstract: This disclosure describes compositions including cannabinoids and omega fatty acids and methods of using those compositions including, for example, to treat or prevent inflammation, as an immunosuppressant, and/or as an anti-cancer therapeutic. In some aspects, the cannabinoid is chosen from i) CBC, CBCA, CBD, CBDA, CBDV, CBDVA, CBG, CBGA, CBL, CBLA, CBN, CBNA, THCV, THCVA, and any combination thereof, and ii) an approximately 1:1 equimolar mixture of CBD:CBDA. In some aspects, the omega fatty acid is chosen from an omega-3 fatty acid (such as ALA, DHA, or EPA), an omega-7 fatty acid, or an omega-9 fatty acid.

Abstract: Techniques for selectively requesting feedback from users are described. A system may receive a user input and perform an action responsive to the user input. The system may determine whether feedback should be requested from the user. Such determination may be based on various signals such as the user's present emotional state, whether the user input included profanity, whether the user input interrupted an output of the system, etc. When the system determines feedback should be requested, the system may select a feedback prompt pre-established by a domain, skill, or the like. After the system outputs the response to the user input, the system may output the feedback prompt.

Abstract: Racks for shipping loose or packaged glass sheets. A rack includes spaced-apart upright members that taper in thickness such that they are thicker at their lower ends compared to their upper ends. Base members extends outwardly and generally perpendicularly from respective upright members. The base members also taper such that they become thicker moving outwardly from the upright members. An acute or right angle is formed between innermost surfaces of the upright members and uppermost surfaces of the base members. The rack, when used alone, is self-standing as if an L-frame like rack and is arrangeable back-to-back with another rack of the same type to form a mutually-supporting A-frame like rack. The racks are easily loadable onto/removable from rail cars, trucks, and/or the like. Racks include features accommodating forks of a forklift/fork truck, further facilitating their movement.

Abstract: A substrate support assembly for a substrate container. The assembly may include a pair of substrate support columns each including a stack of a plurality of shelf members and a plurality of support rods inserted through the stack for securing the stack together. Each shelf member may include a blade portion having first and second opposing surfaces and an inner and outer periphery. Each surface of the blade portion may include a rib structure and a plurality of bosses positioned towards the outer periphery and extending from a forward portion to a rearward portion of the blade portion. Interlocking features may be defined on the rib structures. The stack of the shelf members may include each shelf member stacked with one or more adjacent shelf members via the rib structures, thereby interlocking each shelf member with the one or more adjacent shelf members via the interlocking features.

Abstract: Certain example embodiments relate to racks for shipping loose or packaged glass sheets. A rack includes spaced-apart upright members that taper in thickness such that they are thicker at their lower ends compared to their upper ends. Base members extends outwardly and generally perpendicularly from respective upright members. The base members also taper such that they become thicker moving outwardly from the upright members. An acute or right angle is formed between innermost surfaces of the upright members and uppermost surfaces of the base members. The rack, when used alone, is self-standing as if an L-frame like rack and is arrangeable back-to-back with another rack of the same type to form a mutually-supporting A-frame like rack. The racks are easily loadable onto/removable from rail cars, trucks, and/or the like. Racks include features accommodating forks of a forklift/fork truck, further facilitating their movement.

Abstract: A pedal assembly having a hysteresis creating configuration in communication with a sensor of a pedal assembly. The assembly includes a housing and a pedal arm wherein the pedal arm is pivotally mounted by bushings to the housing. A connector and sensor assembly is provided connected through the pivot point (hub) where the pedal arm connects to the housing of the pedal assembly. A spring connects to a spring carrier wherein the spring is depressed upon depression of the pedal arm of the pedal assembly. As the spring applies a force to the spring carrier, the spring carrier slides down an inclined wall and applies a force to a friction shoe. The friction shoe is in contact with the generally circular hub of the pedal arm thus providing a hysteresis effect as the friction shoe contacts the hub of the pedal arm.
