Abstract: A system and method is described for printing a label with an RFID tag. The system includes an RFID reader that queries a first RFID tag coupled to a first medicinal container that includes a medication. In response, the system receives a first unique identifier and uses the first unique identifier to determine a status of the medication, associate the first medicinal container with a medical provider and print a second label that includes a second RFID tag for a second medicinal container.

Abstract: An evaporator is provided for evaporating water from an ambient water body. The evaporator includes a housing that in turn includes an air flow channel and an air flow exit. The evaporator also includes an air flow induction device, such as a fan or impeller, that facilitates the directing of an air flow stream through the air flow channel and out the air flow exit. A water injection device is in fluid communication with the air flow channel and is disposed to inject the water from the water body into the air flow stream at a water injection location within the air flow stream and proximate to the air flow exit. A water injection system for injecting water from an ambient water body into an air flow stream directed by an air flow channel of an evaporator also is disclosed, wherein the air flow channel is disposed about a longitudinal axis.

Abstract: Methods and systems relate to providing varying levels of detail about a pharmacy item to a patient information system based on the capabilities of the patient information system. An intercept device can receive an identifier associated with a pharmacy item based on a scanner reading a computer-readable code. The intercept device can recognize or determine the storage capabilities or limitations of the patient information system, for example by determining various medication data fields that the patient information system uses to store pharmacy item information. The intercept device can use the machine readable code to obtain pharmacy item information that is compatible with the patient information system based on those storage capabilities or limitations and can distribute that pharmacy item information to the patient information system.

Abstract: A system and method is described for printing a label with an RFID tag. The system includes an RFID reader that queries a first RFID tag coupled to a first medicinal container that includes a medication. In response, the system receives a first unique identifier and uses the first unique identifier to determine a status of the medication, associate the first medicinal container with a medical provider and print a second label that includes a second RFID tag for a second medicinal container.

Abstract: This invention relates to a bow sight and more particularly, but not exclusively, to an automatic bow sight which is releasably securable to a bow. The bow finder includes a range finder, a range finder aiming mechanism for use in assisting to aim the range finder at a target, a display arrangement including a plurality of fight sources that can be switched on independently and/or in combination, and a processor configured to receive information from the range finder, and to send an actuation signal to the display arrangement in order for at least some of the light sources to be selectively switched on.

Abstract: An evaporator is provided for evaporating water from an ambient body of water having a water surface. The evaporator includes a housing that has a proximal end proximate to the water surface, a distal end distal to the water surface, and a housing air flow channel directed toward the water surface. The housing is disposed on a support, such as a float assembly, that positions the housing above the water surface. The evaporator also includes an air flow induction device, preferably an impeller, disposed to direct an air flow stream from the distal end toward the proximal end through the housing air flow channel and toward the water surface so that the air contacts the water. The impeller preferably is made of a fiberglass material. The support preferably includes at least one float assembly air flow channel that receives the air flow stream from the housing and directs it outwardly from the evaporator.

Abstract: A stove controller starts an unattended timer when a cooking process is started. The controller monitors whether motion is detected in the kitchen prior to the unattended timer expiring and resets the unattended timer each time motion is detected. If the unattended timer expires without any motion being detected, the controller disables the heating elements of the stove and starts a return timer. The controller monitors whether motion is detected in the kitchen prior to the return timer expiring. When motion is detected, the controller automatically re-enables the heating elements of the stove so that cooking can continue. If motion is not detected and the return timer expires, the controller locks the stove until a reset procedure is performed. Alerts of the stove activity are sent to external devices over the Internet, and the reset procedure may be performed on the controller or on one of the external devices.

Abstract: A smart-sizing, browser-based widget uses both information defined by a user (e.g., a width value, etc.) and information provided by the web browser and web page within which it is being displayed, to calculate, in real-time, which of its elements to display, and at what scale, so as to make the most efficient use of its available space. The determination as to which elements to display may be a function of a pre-defined relationship among the elements.
