Abstract: Provided are embodiments of system and method for creating shadowed blend using a face contour mask system. The contour mask system may include a faceplate which can be adapted to cover a plurality of portions of a face of a user. The faceplate may include two elongated openings adapted to fit over the eyes of the user. An annular ridge, protruding outwardly from the back side of the faceplate, may encircle each elongated opening. The faceplate may include a spacer to allow a space gap between the face of the user and the faceplate when the faceplate is positioned or worn over the user's face.

Abstract: A prosthetic femoral implant for use in hip arthroplasty comprises an elongate femoral stem. In addition, the femoral implant comprises a femoral neck having a central axis, a first end integral with the femoral stem, and a second end distal the femoral stem. A transverse cross-section of the femoral neck includes a medial-lateral axis and an anterior-posterior axis. Moreover, a reference circle bisected by the medial-lateral axis and passing through the medial-most point and the lateral-most point has a diameter equal to a maximum medial-lateral width Wml of the transverse cross-section and an area A1. The lateral-most anterior segment of the transverse cross-section includes a laterally expanded area extending outside the reference circle, the laterally expanded area having an area A2 that is at least 7% of one-fourth of the area A1 of the reference circle.

Abstract: Novel femoral implants for use in hip arthroplasty are described and illustrated. The femoral implant comprise a stem and neck portion, with the neck portion having a novel configuration that provides for improved range in motion for the prosthesis without compromising strength of the implant.

Abstract: A helmet includes an outer shell, an energy-absorbing layer disposed inside the outer shell, and a liner disposed inside of the energy-absorbing layer. The liner includes a central portion configured to extend along a longitudinal axis that runs between a front portion of the helmet and a rear portion of the helmet, a first side portion releasably coupled to the central portion, and a second side portion releasably coupled to the central portion.
