Abstract: A vertical door latch assembly includes a housing and a bolt movably attached to the housing having a catch portion. A drive motor is located within the housing and is configured to selectively move a lock assembly between a locked position preventing movement of the bolt and an unlocked position allowing movement of the bolt. A controller is in electrical communication with the drive motor and is configured to direct the actuator lock assembly between the locked position and the unlocked position. A force sensor is in electrical communication with the controller configured to measured when a force exceeds a predetermined threshold.

Abstract: A solar roof of a building includes a plurality of solar panels removably coupled to a roof of the building such that a first solar panel of the plurality of solar panels is configured to be removed from the roof without removing an adjacent solar panel.

Abstract: This disclosure provides an improve methods and systems for performing Femtosecond Laser Assisted Cataract Surgery. By creating an inner radius in the eye capsule and lens fragmentation channels fluidically connected to the inner radius, then using viscoelastic fluid to separate the cataract, internal pressure is reduced on the peripheral portion of the cataract during the surgical procedure. Further, laser settings are oriented to permit instruments to break apart cataract nucleus into pieces with reduced ultrasound energy. The result of this improved method is a lessened likelihood of anterior capsular tears and a reduced chance of complications.

Abstract: An orthopedic bone tap is provided, including a rod comprising a proximal end, a medial portion, and a distal end. The orthopedic bone tap also includes a plurality of cutting threads on the distal end of the rod. The orthopedic bone tap also includes an axial compression member engaged with at least one of the proximal end and the medial portion of the rod. The axial compression member is adapted and configured to exert compression that draws a bone fragment engaged with the plurality of cutting threads distally and against another bone fragment.

Abstract: Provided herein are compositions and methods for targeting (e.g., inhibiting or enhancing the activity or expression N of) melanocortin 3 receptor (MC3R) gene, mRNA, and protein for the treatment and/or prevention of eating disorders (e.g., anorexia nervosa, cachexia, etc.), metabolic disorders (e.g., obesity, diabetes, non-alcoholic steatohepatitis, hypertension, etc.), and/or emotional/mental disorders (e.g., depression, anxiety, OCD, PTSD, etc.). In particular, provided herein are MC3R agonists that stimulate MC3R for the treatment/prevention of disorders such as anorexia nervosa and other eating and/or anxiety disorders, MC3R antagonists that inhibit MC3R for the treatment/prevention of obesity and/or other eating/metabolism disorders, and methods of use thereof.

Abstract: Systems and methods for dynamic sanitization control are provided. The system determines an ORP minimum set point value and a free chlorine maximum set point value. The system then measures current ORP and free chlorine levels, and determines whether the measured free chlorine is greater than or equal to the free chlorine maximum set point value and whether the measured current ORP level is less than the ORP minimum set point value. The system adjusts chlorine based on free chlorine levels if the measured free chlorine is greater than or equal to the free chlorine maximum set point value and if the measured current ORP level is less than the ORP minimum set point value. Additionally, the system can adjust chlorine based on ORP levels if either (1) the measured free chlorine is less than the free chlorine maximum set point value or (2) the measured current ORP level greater than or equal to the ORP minimum set point value.

Abstract: A memorial apparatus for perpetuating the memory of deceased armed forces personnel is disclosed and takes the form of a first area of land adjacent a road, and at least one amenities structure on the first area and accessible by vehicles from the road. Also provided are a multiplicity of small second land areas each of which is allocated to a nominated one of the deceased armed forces personnel, and each of which carries a marker either visible to an observer or detectable by a portable electronic device with GPS capability. The second land areas are located adjacent at least one side of the public road and form a road side steering or guiding arrangement to shepherd or urge persons towards the amenities structure. The amenities structure includes a publically accessible database containing data relating to (generally deceased) arms forces personnel.

Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for design and manufacture of a non-metallic polishing tool capable of polishing different surfaces and achieving a smooth and shiny finish. The polishing tool comprises an abrasive coated base surface, and a plurality of engravings in the base surface, forming cylindrical pillars. The pillars are arranged in concentric circular patterns to provide uniform polish and shine on a target material.

Abstract: A medication storage and dispensing workstation for use in a medication management system administering the inventory and distribution of pharmaceuticals and medical supplies in a healthcare environment is disclosed. The workstation incorporates a linear drawer assembly having a plurality of discrete, removable, storage modules for containing medications and/or other medical supplies. The storage modules are arranged in a linear array extending longitudinally along the travel path of the linear drawer assembly. Each storage module, in turn, comprises a drawer that is extensible laterally relative to the linear arrangement of the storage modules. As such, the drawer assemblies comprise a compartmentalized “drawer-in-drawer” arrangement that provides an efficient use of storage space and enables a user to utilize the workstation in a workspace having a smaller footprint that traditional storage cabinet apparatus.
