Abstract: A headboard apparatus for providing various calming stimuli for promoting sleep includes a body which defines a pair of recesses in a front side thereof which are laterally spaced from each other with respect to the body. A pair of doors is mounted to the body, and each door is movably mounted over a respective recess of the pair of recesses. A pair of speakers is mounted to the body, wherein each speaker of the pair of speakers is positioned in a respective recess of the pair of recesses of the body. Each door is selectively positionable over an associated one of the speakers.

Abstract: A fuel vapor recirculation system includes a filler neck adapted to receive a refueling nozzle that dispenses fuel into the filler neck. A fuel tank receives fuel from the filler neck through an inlet check valve. The check valve is disposed in the fuel inlet opening and is normally closed. The check valve opens when fuel is dispensed into the fuel tank. The check valve defines a vent hole that is always open. The fuel tank also includes a fuel limiting vent valve and a grade limit vent valve. A fuel vapor cannister collects fuel vapor and selectively supplies fuel vapor to an intake manifold of a vehicle. The fuel vapor recirculation manifold receives fuel vapor only from the fuel limiting vent valve and the grade limit vent valve in the fuel tank and does not receive fuel vapor directly from the filler neck.

Abstract: A drill press has a main housing, a drill unit supported by the main housing for relative movement therewith, and a base coupled to the main housing, the base includes a magnet assembly to create a magnetic field for magnetically latching the base to a workpiece. The magnet assembly is rotatably attached to the base and includes a shaft and at least one permanent magnet disposed on the shaft. The shaft is rotatable between a first position where the base would not magnetically engage the workpiece and a second position where the base would engage the workpiece. An auxiliary handle is pivotably attached to the main housing and movable from a first handle position preventing removal of a power tool battery pack from the main housing and a second handle position allowing removal of the power tool battery pack from the main housing.

Abstract: A method of delivering and deploying a prosthetic valve includes percutaneously advancing a catheter to a treatment site, proximally retracting an outer shaft relative to an inner shaft to expose the prosthetic valve such that the prosthetic valve self-expands to a radially expanded configuration, disconnecting a tip retractor from a handle of the catheter, and proximally retracting the tip retractor to proximally retract the inner shaft and a nosecone attached to a distal end of the inner shaft relative to the outer shaft and/or the handle.

Abstract: A tray and packaging system for a prosthetic valve delivery system permits conversion from a storage and/or shipping configuration to a set up and preparation configuration. In a first configuration, a delivery system can be supported by first and second main trays with the elongate catheter of the delivery system arranged to extend linearly from the first main tray to the second main tray, and in a second configuration, the delivery system can be supported by the first and second main trays with the elongate catheter of the delivery system turned back in a U-shaped manner with the deployment portion of the delivery system positioned to the side of the control handle portion of the delivery system.

Abstract: A power system is provided that includes a plurality of engines and a compressed air source in communication with the plurality of engines and configured to assist in starting the engines. A plurality of engine controllers are provided each associated with a respective one of the plurality of engines. The engine controllers are communicatively linked with each other and upon receipt of a signal to start the plurality of engines are configured to stagger the starts of the plurality of engines according to a predetermined order and to apply an air start system charge delay timer before starting an individual engine when the compressed air source is in a first state in which the compressed air source is unable to assist starting at least one of the plurality of engines.

Abstract: Methods, systems and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for generating a target bid for an advertiser to use in an auction directed at enabling the advertiser to reach the advertiser's advertising goal (e.g., a cost-per-call goal) for a particular advertising target (e.g., a television program or demographic) based on the target's historical advertising performance.

Abstract: A prosthetic valve delivery system that is improved in controllability by way of a proximal handle system. Such a handle system of the present invention advantageously permits a controlled fine or micro movement or adjustment of a distal sheath for uncovering a plunger that is to be loaded with a prosthetic valve for deployment thereof. The delivery system of the present invention permits a trigger-release for a gross or macro movement to the sheath relative to the plunger. Also, the control handle of the delivery system is shaped and contoured for ease in manipulation of the micro-control actuator.

Abstract: Techniques are described for an automated grammar teaching system that displays sentences and allows a user to identify comma errors within the sentences, if any. The sentences may be presented as a set of sentences or a paragraph. When presented as a set, the sentences may employ similar or contrasting sentence structures to emphasize the application of the comma rules. The user may be asked to determine whether the sentences are correct or incorrect, to identify the locations of missing or extraneous commas, and in a sentence with a coordinating conjunction, to determine whether the conjunction joins two independent clauses. To guide the user, multi-level hints may be provided on request, and an incorrect user response may trigger the display of remediation information or a just-in-time hint. New sentences in the teaching system may be selected based on historical data maintained for the user.
