Tape measure attachment for receiving a knife

A High Intensity Focused Ultrasound system is provided for treatment of focal disease. The preferred embodiment includes an intracavity probe having two active ultrasound radiating surfaces with different focal geometries. Selectively energizing the first surface focuses therapeutic energy a first distance from the housing, energizing the second surface focuses therapeutic energy nearer the housing. Preferably, the probe includes a thin, flexible, inelastic membrane which is rigidized with pressure to allow blunt manipulation of tissue. Methods of use of the probe are also provided, particularly for treatment of diseases of the prostate.

An apparatus providing a novel challenge to skill and dexterity includes a projectile and a deformable container having a drive medium contained therein. The deformable container is in fluid communication with a launch member, such that deformation of the container is communicated to the launch member, thereby causing the launch member to impact the projectile. Deformation may be caused by physical pressure applied by an operator. In this case, when an operator strikes the deformable container, it is compressed, forcing the drive medium, which may be air, to the launch member, which may be a piston, causing the launch member to strike a game ball, sending it toward the target. The deformable container may comprise resilient and rigid foam. Alternatively, a plurality of independently compressible containers, each actuating a separate piston or other launch member may be provided. The separate launch members are positioned adjacent to one another, and direct the projectile in different directions, the resulting projectile trajectory determined by the vector sum of the individual impacts. A plurality of targets in vertical arrangement may also be provided, as well as a mechanism for loading game projectiles onto a resting location from which they are propelled toward the target.

An improved, crush resistant, multiple use merchandise hanger assembly is disclosed which allows hanging or stacking of merchandise as desired. The assembly includes a two-flap, merchandise-receiving label having an upstanding tab, and a hook pivotally secured to the tab. The tab is apertured and provided with an arcuate hook-receiving slot for accommodating pivoting of the hook. The label includes strategically located transverse lines of weakness therein so as to safely absorb bending or impact forces during shipping and handling without harming the label. In use, the hook can be selectively shifted to an upright operative position for suspending the merchandise, or can alternately be pivoted to a lowered, recessed position permitting normal stacking of the merchandise.
