Abstract: Edge blocks for a PV array comprising fastener or component holes for anchoring the array bonding the array and protecting array cabling. Edge blocks provide a favorable aerodynamic shape to help deflect incoming wind, the channel rainwater and to protect edge of the array. Methods having steps of placing modules contacting native topography or a smoothed or substantially flat portion of the ground in an array and holding the array together and down are also disclosed.

Abstract: A use tracking razor assembly for tracking the number of times a razor has been used for shaving includes a razor handle that has an engagement thereon for releasably engaging a razor head for shaving. A dial is rotatably coupled to the engagement and the dial can be rotated by a user. The dial is sequentially rotated between a start position and an end position each time the razor head is employed for shaving. In this way the dial assists the user with keeping track of the number of times the razor head has been used.

Abstract: There is provided a method (100) for aligning and positioning an implant (305). The method (100) comprises creating a reference using a guide (500) configured in accordance with patient specific data; fixing the reference using a reference marker (920) and delivering the implant (305) with an impactor (1005) aligned in accordance with the reference. Guide light emission means (515a) may be employed to create the reference, reference marker light emission means (515b) may be employed to fix the reference and impactor light emission means (515c) may be employed to align an impactor (1005).

Abstract: A tray configured for packaging is provided. The tray may include a substantially planar portion and a curved perimeter portion extending from the substantially planar portion. One or more cutout portions may be defined in the substantially planar portion. The tray may also include a handle that may be grasped during insertion into, or removal from a rear cover of an accessory unit. In this regard, the substantially planar portion and the curved perimeter portion of the tray may support a recessed portion of the rear cover of the accessory unit when received therein. Thus, issues with respect to deformation of the recessed portion, which may be formed from a flexible material, may be avoided. The tray may he part of a packaging system that further includes a box and a lid.
