Abstract: An apparatus may include a sense amplifier with a single column select transistor, a local input/output line selectively couplable to a first bit line through the column select transistor, and a read/write gap comprising at least a first transistor and a second transistor. The first transistor may be couplable to a read select signal and a complimentary local input/output line and the second transistor is couplable to the complimentary local input/output line and a global input/output line.

Abstract: An apparatus for catching un-vaporized e-liquid prevents un-vaporized e-liquid from exiting the mouthpiece of an atomizer or vaporizer. A liquid catch chamber is positioned after the outlet from a vaporizer's heating element, with a liquid deflection barrier between the outlet from the vaporizer's heating element and the outlet from the catch chamber. Protrusions around the outlet apertures may further restrict the flow of un-vaporized e-liquid out of the outlets. Further, absorbent materials may also be used to retain the e-liquid within the catch chamber.

Abstract: Arrangements for detecting, evaluating and controlling intelligence threat data feeds are provided. In some examples, a plurality of threat intelligence data feeds may be received. The threat intelligence data feeds may be received and evaluated to identify one or more feeds that are considered to provide valuable information to the entity implementing the evaluation. For instance, the evaluation may identify one or more feeds or providers that provides accurate data, timely data, and the like. In some examples, based on the evaluation, one or more data feeds may be removed (e.g., data might not be received), one or more alerts may be generated or dismissed, alerts generated for potential threats may be prioritized (e.g., alerts generated based on data from more accurate feeds are prioritized over alerts generated based on data from less accurate feeds).

Abstract: A method is disclosed for clearing effusion from an ear. The method may include applying liquid to an ear canal, which is proximal to a perforated tympanic membrane, which is proximal to a middle ear containing effusion, applying an ear device to seal and pressurize the liquid inside the ear canal, the ear device regulating the amount of pressure inside the ear canal, and inducing a Eustachian tube, which is distal to the middle ear, to open, which causes the fluid to displace the effusion into the Eustachian tube.

Abstract: A device for dilating an ostium of a paranasal sinus of a human or animal subject may include: a handle; an elongate shaft having a proximal end coupled with the handle and extending to a distal end; a guidewire disposed through at least a portion of the shaft lumen; a dilator having a non-expanded configuration and an expanded configuration; and a slide member coupled with at least one of the guidewire or the dilator through the longitudinal opening of the shaft for advancing the guidewire and/or the dilator relative to the shaft.

Abstract: A circuit board assembly in an electronic is disclosed. To conserve space in the electronic device, the circuit board assembly includes stacked circuit boards in electrical communication with each other, such as a first circuit board stacked over a second circuit board. Each circuit board may include multiple surfaces that carry operational components. Moreover, the first circuit board may include a first surface and the second circuit board may include a second surface facing the first surface. The first and second surfaces may include operational components in corresponding locations. Also, the operational components may include corresponding shapes such that one component is positioned in another component. The components may electrically connect to each other. Also, the circuit board assembly may include EMI shields around an outer perimeter in order to shield the operational components form EMI and to components in the electronic device from EMI emanating from the operational components.
