Abstract: Disclosed herein are concrete and asphalt crack filler compounds and methods for utilizing them. According to some embodiments, a method of utilizing one of the compounds can include the steps of (1) obtaining a surface crack filler compound, (2) depositing the surface crack filler compound into a surface crack (e.g., concrete, asphalt, etc.), and (3) depositing water onto the surface crack filler compound to cause the surface crack filler compound to solidify and fill the surface crack. Additionally, and according to some embodiments, the method can further include, prior to depositing the surface crack filler compound into the surface crack: removing debris from the surface crack using at least one of a brush, pressurized air, or pressurized water.

Abstract: A calibrator has profiles for holding locators for items in a tree-like database of smart device that monitors a process. The calibrator is connected to the smart device and obtains tag and other identity information to find the profile for the smart device. When a profile is located, the calibrator displays a list of calibration setup items and favorite items and loads the items on the list into the calibrator as default inputs or settings.

Abstract: A communicator has profiles for holding locators for items in a tree-like database for a smart device that monitors a process. The communicator is connected to the smart device and obtains tag and other identity information to find the profile for the smart device. When a profile is located, the communicator displays a list of configuration items and favorite items and loads the items on the list into the communicator as default inputs or settings.

Abstract: A game apparatus involving launching and catching of a game piece includes a pincer tool having first and second opposed members that are articulatable with respect to one another to capture the game piece between the articulatable members, and to also accelerate the game piece radially outwardly from a pivot region. The pincer tool of the game apparatus therefor acts to launch the game piece merely through relative articulation of the opposed first and second members toward one another while the game piece is in contact with both of the first and second members.

Abstract: Apparatus and methods for launching and resetting a projectile are disclosed. The apparatus may include a launcher, projectile and, in some embodiments, packaging. The launcher configured to impart a rotation to the projectile and to launch the projectile from the launcher. The launcher is configured to automatically reset the projectile on a spindle after launch. The packaging may permit the visualization of the flight of the projectile after it is launched from the launcher.

Abstract: A system for delivering information through a computer. The system comprises: data collecting means for collecting personal data including menstrual data regarding a menstrual cycle on a woman from a user; phase identification means for identifying a phase within the menstrual cycle; storage means for storing predetermined information; selection means for selecting information from the storage means, which is personalized based on the phase identified by the phase identification means; and delivery means for delivering the personalized information.

Abstract: A surgical instrument for removing the cataractous nucleus from the eye. The instrument consists of a proximal handle and plunger. The plunger also acts as a screw-drive for an auger located at the distal end of the instrument. The screw-drive plunger is advanced exposing a nucleus encasing basket at the distal end of the instrument. The nucleus is completely encased in the distal basket and slowly ground up by the auger, removing the nucleus from the eye in its entirety. The use of unique internal gearing between the auger and encasing element results in a safe, efficient, controllable evacuation of the nucleus from the eye.
