Abstract: A door lock mechanism is disclosed that includes door lock and alarm features. The mechanism includes a controller and a sensor useful to detect motions that are representative of attempted access through a door to which the door lock mechanism is attached. The controller can set an alarm condition if a measured motion, such as a measured acceleration, meet and/or exceeds a threshold. If an appropriate access control credential is provided through a user device then the alarm condition may not be set by the controller. The door lock mechanism can be coupled to a remote station via a communications link if needed, such as a radio frequency link. The remote station can additionally be in communication with the door lock mechanism via a network. The remote station can be used to send and receive messages regarding door lock mechanism status, configuration, etc.

Abstract: A method is disclosed for providing a trace of mailing list expansion performed on an electronic message delivered to an electronic mailing list. The method comprises receiving an electronic message addressed to an electronic mailing list having a set of recipients; inserting an informational header line in a message header of the electronic message that is indicative of the electronic mailing list; and relaying the message for delivery to the set of recipients on the electronic mailing list.

Abstract: A steam cooking system includes a steam cooking chamber having an access door and a drain for draining condensate from the steam cooking chamber along a drain path. A steam generator unit heats water to generate steam. The steam generator unit is connected for delivery of steam from the steam generator to the steam cooking chamber via a first steam path during a cooking operation. The steam generator unit is also connected for delivery of steam from the steam generator to the drain path via a second steam path during a steam flushing operation.

Abstract: A method of dispensing liquid from a dispenser onto an animal. The method includes placing a tip of the dispenser on or near the skin of the animal and depressing a plunger which is movably disposed in a body of the dispenser. Depressing the plunger causes a membrane in the body to be pierced such that an opening is formed in the membrane. At least some of the liquid is dispensed through an opening of the dispenser onto the skin of the animal. In another embodiment, a dispenser is provided for dispensing liquid onto the skin of an animal. The dispenser can include a cap and a replaceable cartridge.

Abstract: A food cooking device includes a cooking structure defining a volume for receiving food product to be cooked, and a heating arrangement for heating food product within the volume. The heating arrangement includes a gas burner system that includes a blower and fuel gas flow feed device arranged such that operation of the blower draws in ambient air and the flow of ambient air through the blower in turn draws fuel gas from the fuel gas flow control device such that a ratio of fuel gas to ambient air remains substantially the same regardless of blower speed. A burner is connected to receive the fuel gas and ambient air mixture from the blower. A controller is connected for controlling blower speed, the controller configured to vary the blower speed between at least two different non-zero blower speeds.
